GADE PARKER'S
NAME USED ON
FORCED CHECK
INDIAN OFFICIALS BELIEVE THAT
a WHOLESALE FRAUD is IN
CONTEMPLATION - MAY STOP
PAYMENT.

Muskogee, okla. Aug. 2i.-Indian
officials Thursday received reports
that government checks are being
forged and put in circulation in the
Chickasaw and Choctaw nations where
nine-million-dollar per capita pay
ment is in progress. The first of
these alleged spurious checks was pre-
sented at bank at Coalgate on Mon
day. This was filled out in the sum
Of $50 and was presented by an In
dian for payment. Federal officers be-
lieve that the attempt to put 1t in
circulation was premature and that a
gang of counterfeiters had planned
to use the payment as a means Of
defrauding the government out Of
thousands of dollars.
The purported signature of Gabe
e. Parker, superintendent, was affixed
to the check presented at Coalgate.
At the Five Tribes offices Thursday
it was said that none Of the spurious
checks had turned up except at Coal
gate, so far as the officials were in
formed The situation Is regarded as
serious. It is generally known that
the biggest Of Indian payment is in
progress and merchants aud bankers
could be made victims.
The incident recalls the epidemic of
bad checks passed in the oil country
two or three years ago. Someone got
out an issue of Prairie Oil and Gas
company checks which were cashed,
and several thousand dollars secured
from merchants.

ESTIMATES Of
LOCAL COTTON
RECEIPTS
LOCAL COTTON MEN ARE LOOK
ING FOR THE TOTAL TO REACH
ABOVE THE FIFTEEN-THoUsAND
BALE MARK.

Estimates by cotton buyers in this
city so far received place the total
to be marketed from wagons in this
city this season at considerably above
that received last year, when the
crop fell below the ten thousand
mark.
Most of the buyers interviewed place
their figures around the fifteen-;hou-
sand-bale mark and according to the
present outlook their figures will not
be far wrong.
The railroads have cut of lot of
the wagon receipts that formerly came
TO this city, which at one time vas
the largest inland cotton market in
the world. but a majority of the grow
ers would market their cotton bere
in spite Of this fact II the roads o.
the county were passable during the
fall and winter months. This is n
grave question that is being agitated
by the business men of the city. and
will come 20 a showdown when the
Board OF County commissioners next
convene and the question of voting a
bond issue is brought up.

French gains on the Somme
in the vicinity Of Maurepas
yesterday were followed by a
heavy German counter attack
last night. Paris claims today
that the Germans were re-
pulsed with heavy losses. On
the Verdun front the Germans
attacked Fleury during the
night, but unsuccessfully.
1t was announced from Pc
trograd today that the Rus
slams have resumed their adj
vance along the entire Asiatic
front and that the Turks have
evacuated Bitlis. The Russians
have retaken the town of Mush
in Armenia and captured 2,3OO
prisoners at Rachta.
The British and French ar
mics made simultaneous gains
yesterday on the western front,
when Maurepas was complete
ly occupied by the French
troops, and the British made
an advance of three yards
south of Thiepval, and captur-
ed many prisoners. With the
capture of Maurepas, the
French now almost surround
Clery, and the French troops
are directly in front of the
Combles, an important railroad
center.
Reports from Budapest say
that the Russians are massing
large forces along the Rou-
manian frontier with the in
tention of invading Bulgaria by
way of Dabrudja. Powerful
Roumanian forces are also
gathering along the lower
Danube.
The capture of Maurepas by the
French is admitted in "a German state
ment today.
A London war office bulletin says
that after nard fighting on the
Somme front, the British lines have
been advanced several hundred yards
near Delville wood.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 25.
President Wilson summoned
representatives of the employ.
ers and the employees involved
in the threatened railroad
strike to the White House to-
day for a conference TO dis
cuss the proposals which have
developed out of the original
plan of settlement.
The employees saw the presi-
dent at 1920 and the employ
ers later in the afternoon. The
four brotherhoods' heads re-
mained with the president for
an hour and one-half, but
would not make any statement
on leaving.
THE situation, as far as we
are concerned" said A. B. Gar
retson, spokesman for the en-
plOyes, "is absolutely unchang-
ed. No complete plan upon
which the railroads agree has

ed the Presidents plan"
The strike negotiations have
resolved themselves, outward
ly at least, in to a more or less
confused state. Expressions of
optimism are lacking, and the
feeling is general among the
managers that the plan to in
clude an eight-hour day will be
found impractical.
