Special Committee Confers with
States Delegation in Congress.

Washington, March 2S.-Assist-
ant Attorney General NJ. P. DeBruhl,
Senator w. H. Stewart, of York
county and Chief D. A. Harris, of the
Catawba tribe of Indians, came to
Washington to-day as committee,
acting under a resolution of the
South Carolina legislature, to ask the
aid of the federal government in pro-
viding a tract of land on which these
Indians may become self-supporting.
The South Carolina delegation met
the committee in Representative
Finley's office, with Senator Smith in
the chair, and after hearing the case,
stated it's willingness to do anything
it could to help. The committee was
requested to draw up a bill to be Of
fered in congress. For seventy years
these Catawba Indians, who now
number 81, and live in York county,
have been wards of the State, which
has been paying them $1,000 per
annum.
They were among the few tribes
of Indians who fought on the side of
the colonists in the Revolutionary
war. The plan is to ask the Fed
eral government to contribute $780,
900, if the State of South Carolina
will contribute an equal amount, to
buy land for the1n dians and let them
take care of themselves.

Urged to Take Action
On District Bills

After stormy session lasting more
than an hour this afternoon, the law
and legislation committee of the Cham
ber of Commerce adopted its subcom-
mittee's report, and decided to forward
to each member of the House District
Committee an appeal to report out the
District legislation now pending In COM
mittee.
The action was opposed by Charles
w. Darr and P. ]. Ryan. Mr.. Darr
maintained that the committee should
not call upon Congress to act upon any
matter upon which the chamber had
not committed itself, and Mr., Ryan pro-
posed an amendment that the commit
tee should be asked to favor all meas
ures favored by the chamber, and OPP
pose all measures opposed by the cham
Der. This motion was lost.
The appeal slightly amended was
finally adopted and will be forwarded
to every member of the House District
Committee. Twelve OF the fifty-four
members Of the committee were pres
mt and Chairman A. Leftwich Sinclair
presided.

getting the regularly elected Costello

delegates although the Newman men
were first recognized by the national

ARCHIBALD CASE TO
GO OVER UNTIL FALL
Senate Worn Out and Not In
Frame Of Mind To
Try Judge.

That the case of Judge Archibald, who
has been impeached by the House, will
go over until next fall, either to spe-
cial session or the regular session, Ii
considered practically settled.
This morning, important conferences
are held in the case. Congressman Mann
and Clayton were on the Senate side
consulting with leaders. The disposition
OF many of the Senators, especially the
Republican leaders, Is to have the case
go over.
The main question is whether 5udge
Archibald is willing to let the case go
over. Senators are disposed to give him
immediate trial II he insists, but some
them say this is not a good time for
trial, as the Senate Is worn out and not
in judicial mind. 1t is understood Judge
Archibald Is willing to have the case go
over and that the Senate probably Will
so decide.
