says. he is afraid of Michigan law
yers.

The lease which the Chippewas
contend has expired, is said to have
been signed by Isaac Hull when he
was military governor of Michigan,
then an Indian territory. They have
i'm their possession a lease which
looks old, very original and very
genuine.
Belle Isle has an acreage of 7O7
and its assessed valuation is fixed at
$15.565.000 Besides this property

10000 acres between Toledo and
Saginaw. and 10000 acres on the
west side of the Saginaw river, a
part of the city of Saginaw, and val
liable property along the lake front
in Chicago.
Wheaton. or O-Tua-Sha, is a
hunter and trapper near Temple. He
is a grandson Of the Chief O-Tut-
Sha who he says signed the lease
of Belle Isle. He is six feet tall, SO
wears old, and has a wife and two
daughters.
The wife's Indian name is Dus-
Ma-No-Quay. She is a Wyandotte
and a great granddaughter Of Te-
cumseh.
Keeps the Lease.
Most of the documents were turn
ed over to Atty. Baker. although the
chief retains the treasured lease of
Belle Isle and some other docu-
, ments. including a sort Of power of
attorney giving O-Tua-Sha power to
act for the Indians.
The conference of the chief and
sub-chiefs was held on July p,
1910. at Indian town. Kawkawlin,
Mich. Only 800 of the Chippewas
remain in Michigan. They are not
on a reservation.
The lease between Gov Hull and
Chief O-Tua-Sha expired last year,
Chief O-Tda-Sha said He added: Il
believe we will be able to convince
any court We will be willing to re-
lease the park for 90 years more, or
/ to make a settlement with Detroit.
THE $4,000 acres Of land involved
were granted to the Chippewas by
the old treaty of Greenville, after
| the battle of Fallen Timbers, in
which my grandfather fought.

The Chippewas owned all of the
| land where Chicago now stands
when il was sold. the tribe reserved
the lake front for hunting and fish
ing purposes. II was never trans
ferred / have been offered two
acres Of the lake front for my claim

ARMY ELEVEN TO
PLAY NINE TESTS
To Meet Trinity Despite the Fact That
C. Brickley is in Lineup.

Several important changes in the
makeup of the Army football SEIZED
ule for 1916 are noted in the announce
ment of the program of the gridiron
games to be played by the Cadets next
fall. which was announced yesterday.
Lebanon Valley, Washington and Lee
University and Trinity will displace
Gettysburg, Georgetown and Colgate,
respectively, on the schedule. The
first two are new to followers of Army
football. Trinity, which had so much
trouble last year, over the presence of
George Brickley on its team, is an old
time Army gridiron rival and returns
after an absence of six years.
The schedule of the game with
Washington and Lee from the South
and the arrangement for another con-
test with University of Notre Dame
from the Middle West, means that the
Cadets will have two intersectional
battles on their hands next fall.
The schedule of the game with Leb-
anon Valley and closes with the Navy
on November 25 All the games will
be on the plains gridiron except the
contest with the Navy. By the terms

NAVAL PERSONAL BOARD.
To be Increased Fifteen Percent Under
Plans of Assistant Secretary
Roosevelt,

Under the plans that are now being
considered by the Roosevelt Naval
Personal Board there is to be an in
rease of about 10 per cent. in the
strength of the officers of the staff
departments of the Navy This, it is
understood, is considered 10 be about
the same increase that would be pro-
yided for in the line features OF the
Departments bill.
In some of the grades of the line
there will be larger percentage of
increase. but this viii be the general
average in the line for term of I'VE
years. In all of the staff departments
excepting the medical corps, the grad
yates of the Naval Academy, after
three years sea srvice, will pass auto
matically into the staff department and
go up to the different grades under the
same system of promotion that is pro
vided for in the line.
The details of this proposition have
not been worked out. but it is being
urge that there should be some system
by which the vacancies in all of the
corps can be filled from the Naval
Academy, as recommended by the
the number of medical directors will be
increased from seventeen to eighteen
medical inspectors from fifteen TO
thirty-six, and the number of sur
geons from eightyfve 10 ninety
In the Pay Corps the number of pay
directors will be increased from thir-
teen TO fifteen; pay inspectors from
fifteen to thirty. and paymasters de-
creased from eighty-six to about sixty
The number of naval constructors is
increased from fifty one TO fifty-seven
the number of assistant naval con-
structors from twenty-four to thirty
six The number of civil engineers is
/ increased from twenty mine to thirty
one. the number of assistant civil en-
gineers from eleven to fifteen.
The decrease in paymasters is re
commended TO adjust the flow of pro
motion in that line.

sued a call yesterday for a caucus TO
be held at the State House on next

bling of the Legislature.
The meeting is TO be held in the

usage. Chairman TAFT also includes a
strong plea for all the G. o. p. legisla
tors to be present at this initial meet
ing on Tuesday night.

chairman. the caucus will resolve it
self into two bodies. one composed Of
members and members-elect of the
Senate. and the other of members-elect
of the House. Each will nominate
their choice for the presiding officer
of the respective houses. and these two
men will automatically become the mi
nority floor leader of the Senate and
House. respectively
On the Senate side Senator Fred
erick \. Zihlman.. of Allegany county
who proved a most successful minor
ity leader in 1914 will likely be can
didate for the same honor at the com
ing session. Williams of Cecil county
and Chesley, of St Mary's county, viii
probably also be candidates.
On the House side Oliver S. Meter
oft, of Prince Georges county, is the
only candidate reported for the fiooC
/ leadership up TO this time. Mr.. Met
zerott was a prominent member of the
House of 1912 and has also been hi:
