as hard as he could fight for vic
tory in tomorrow's presidential prl-
mary in Illinois. In his opinion, as
he expressed 1t today, the result of tho
fight would be OF first importance in
determining the outcome of his whole
campaign When it was all over and
the colonel was ready to board his
train to pass out of the state, he
said.
My hat is in the rims and It is go-
ing to stay in the ring
In one Of mis- speeches today he
said:
We look to Illinois to set the key
note OF this campaign. Illinois stands
in the most important position Of any
state in this fight
In some other states he said his
supporters had been defeated by un-
fair tactics Of federal off."e holders,
and boy o,ter methods which he char
acterized as improper. Referring to
the presidential primary in Illinois,
he said:
"If you are against me in a fair
vote I shall have nothing TO say but
II you are for men and the bosses re-
cord you as against me. l shall have
"A great deal TO say"

To-day was Oklahoma day In com
gross. That portion Of the indian ap-~
preparation bin makins appropriation
for the administration of the affairs
OF the Five Civilized Tribes was the
subject under consideration The bill
contained a provision that prevented
The expenditure Of any tribal fund for
any purpose by the secretary Of the
interior. without specific appropriation
by congress. TO this provision Con-
gresham Miller of Minnesota made a
point of order. Thereupon the big
fight started.
1t was shown that the position re-
peals existing law and would make
impossible the equalization of allot-
ments in the final settlement Of the
tribal affairs and the payment of trl-
bal officers and attorneys, without
specific appropriation by congress, and
the bill carried no appropriation for
any of these purposes. 1t was shown
that If the bill passed in Its present
form that it would deprive the Indian
tribe of legal representation and would

The entire affairs of the Five Civ

points. The democrats who partici-

unanimously in favor of the measure.
while the republicans considered the
measure most far-reaching and de-
structive to the interests of the In

BRITISH PRODUCE ALl5l.
Report Tells Why England Lost at
Stockholm.


London. Sept. THE failure of
Great Britain TO. secure better results
at the Olympic games at Stockholm Is
explained today in the report of the
British olympic committee which
says:
1T was not mere specialization
which enabled Sweden and the United
states to do better than the British
empire. The only winner of three
gold medals came from Finland The
pentathlon and the decathlOn were
won by an American who showed
quite extraordinary all-round ability.
Sweden won all the points i'm the
modern pentathlon and obtained more
points than any other nation in the
whole of the games by seduluously
cultivating every form of physical
ability possessed by her inhabitants
and her strength and capacity as a
nation have been enormously increas-
ed i'm the process.
The lack of serious interest i'm the
games on the part of the British pub
lie is declared by the public to have
greatly affected the enthusiasm of the
British competitors. owing to want
of funds these also were deprived oI
opportunities for training undel
trainers acquainted with the best sci
entihc methods"
