ROOSEVELT IN STRIKE TOUR
Colonel Hears Hardships Endured by
Girls and Women Who Make
Wrappers and kimonos.

New York, Jan. 22.-Former Presi-
dent Theodore Roosevelt, drawn by the
pitiful stories he had heard about the
hardships OF the girls and young won.
en- who manufacture wrappers and XII.
monos in the dingy East side "facto-
ries," made a personal tour Of inspec-
ton. He visited two of the meeting
places OF the strikers and interviewed
several score of them, listening with
interest to the stories they told. When
he came away, the colonel sadly shook
his head and was heard to murmur:
IT'S terrible to see the way the lives
of the future mothers of our country
are being crushed out" He will ask
State Senator Falland to introduce a
measure asking for legislative inves-
tigation OF the conditions which exist
in these factories.

INDIANS LOSE FIGHT
COURT DIsMIssEs PETITION FOR
THEIR REINSTATEMENT.
Secretary Fisher, Answering Charge,
Gives Committee Details of Re-
moval of Usage Council.

Washington, Jan. 22.-The attempt
of the seven Usage Indian councillors
deposed by Secretary Fisher to force
their reinstatement by mandamus
proceedings failed when the district
supreme court dismissed their petit
ton.
The secretary removed them for
granting lease to the Uncle Sam Oil
company.
Secretary Fisher answered the
charge that he had attempted to
coerce the Indians into leasing their
valuable oil lands to the Standard
Oil company, to the exclusion of the
Uncle Sam OF, company, in state
ment before the house Indian affairs
committee.
When the circumstances under
which these leases were drawn came
to the departments attention" he said,
Bacon Rind, ths principal chief; Red
Eagle, assistant chief, and Thomas
West a member Of the council were
removed for bribery. A written con-
fession by Tom West and no denials
from the others were the only replies
to- these charges.
The conditions ran along, with
seven members Of the council contin-
uing to do the tribes business, until
after a special investigation the re-
mainder of the council was summary
removed and the report OF the investi-
cation was turned over to the attor-
ney general.
The difficulty In all these cases is
that there is no specific law which
makes it crime for an Official of an
Indian tribe to accept a bribe. The
attorney general has sent on this re-
port, with his recommendation to
the United States attorney of Okla
homa."

ROOT HITS FREE.
TOLL PROVISION
Senator Pleas for Repeal or
Arbitration.
UNJUST TO WORLD, He SAYS
Asserts That Principle Of Equality at
Panama Canal Was the Basis Of
Hay-Pauncefote
Pact.

Washington, Jan. 22.--"Tbe United
States either should submit the Pana
ma free toll question to impartial arbi
tration or retire from the position we
have taken" was the declaration OF
Senator Root, in the senate in a
speech favoring repeal of the free toll
provision If the new Panama canal
act
Senator Root took the position that
congress should not have passed law
last summer that Disseminated against
foreign shipping and granted free tolls
to American coastwise shipping. That
action, he declared, had been a source
OF great regret to multitudes OF our
fellow citizens and had created a
painful impression throughout the
world"
Opposed Free Toll Provision.
Senator Root was an active oppo-
nent OF the free toll provision when
the canal act passed last August and
his speech opened fight to secure an
amendment of the law before it goes
into effect. Senator Root declared that
congress had been tired out before the
bill was taken up last summer and
that the measure never received prop
er consideration.
eve were weary and exhausted and
our minds were not working during
that period" he declared.
"A decent regard for the opinions
Of mankind was one of the motives set
by the people of these colonies into
the great declaration of their indie
pendence," said Senator Root. He out
lined the relations between the United
States and Great Britain, which had
led up TO the making of the Hay
Pauncefote treaty Of 1901, under which
the canal YVES constructed.
"The United States gave up nothing
it then had" said the senator. Its
obligations in that treaty were entire
ly looking to the future. But Great
Britain gave up its rights to the pro-
tectorate over the Mosquito coast,
which, 1t was supposed, would be the
eastern terminus of the canal"
Reads Treaty Declaration.
From the treaty with Great Britain
Senator Root read the declaration that
the proposed canal was to be open ION
equal terms to all.
This declaration is the corner stone
of the rights OF the United States at
the Panama canal" he said.
While the United States was given
authority over the construction and
operation of the canal. declared Sena-
tor Root, that authority was based d.
rectly on the provision that it should
be without impairing the general prin-
ciples of naturalization" that had been
contained in article s of the Clayton.
Bulwer treaty.
I'VE must :onstrue that principle of
as part OF the later
agreement he de-
clared THAT principle OF absolute
equality became the controlling prin.
ciple of the new agreement"
Held in Trust by United States.
Senator Root contended that the
United States could claim no special
control OF the canal because it owned
the canal zone. This suggestion had
been made, he said, by those who
claimed the United States was entitled
TO build canal on it's own property
and do with 1t as II liked without re-
gard TO previous treaties.

WYOMING SOLONS
INDULGE IN RIOT
Speaker and Speaker Pro Tenn.
PummeI Each Other.
BOTH CLAIMED THE CHAIR
One Man Thrown Violently or Plat
form and Another Kicked In Stor1-
ach as House Tries to
Oreaniz3.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Jan 22-Scenes Of
violence which lasted fully three-Quar
tiers Of an hour and which included
two separate encounters between
Speaker Martin l.. Pratt and Speaker
Pro TEN. W. J. Wood threw the lower
house of the Wyoming legislature in
to hopeless confusion on Monday.
When adjournment was taken the
situation still remained unsettled
Both Pratt and Wood claimed au-
thority over the house and with Wood
sitting in the speakers chair and Pratt
welding the gavel the show OF au-
thority seemed about equal either way.
The immediate occasion OF the trouble
was the attempt OF Speaker Pratt to
call to the chair F. C. Hunter, Repub-
lican of Carbon county. An appeal had
been taken from the speakers ruling
upon the offer of substitute commit
tees by the Democrats for those he
had submitted and in which he him.
self held the balance OF power upon
the two important committees, rules
and elections.
Mr. Hunter took the chair and Pratt
went to Hunters seat on the floor.
Thereupon Pratt started to resume
the chair himself Wood sat stanchly
In his place until Pratt, grasping him
by the shoulders with both hands,
threw him violently of the platform.
Wood struck on both hands and his
face. but promptly arose and rushed
back to the chair again. The men
grasped each other until Chaplain Da-
wilson and others on the platform held
them momentarily.
Another climax followed In ten min
utes after the first violence between
the speaker and speaker pro TEN.
when, with several hackers on each
side, they FLASHED and Pratt attempted
TO get his own chair In place of the
clerks chair he had appropriated for
the time being. Attempting 10 inter
fere, Representative Sproul, who has
been closer to Pratt in counsel than
any other Democrat, was soundly
kicked In the stomach by the speak
er. Further violence was then averted.
