''The settlement of the strike" said
the District Attorney on his return from

Offices OF the Public Service Commission
us not going to make any difference In
the matter OF prosecuting the charge OF
conspiracy"
Assistant District Attorney Dooling
went to the Offices of Barclay, Parsons
& Klapp, engineers and public ac-
countants in 60 Wall street. and asked
to see the records useo as a basis for
the estimates of earnings of the Inter-
borough given in a letter sent by its
president to ]. p. Morgan & Co. on
August 81, 1918. This was in connec-
tion with the proposed issuance of S55,-
100000 in short term notes. After a
cursory examination Mr. Dooling reached
the conclusion that it agreed with the
statements made in the letter Of Mr..
Shonts. The data were compiled by Henry
| Brinkerhoff. He was not In town yester-
day, but request was made that he go
to the Office OF the District Attorney
when he returns this morning
The names of striking Interborough
trainmen reported to have said that they
were satisfied with conditions and that
the strike was forced upon them, are to
be sought by the police In The Bronx.
| according to an announcement yester-
day by Francis Martin, District Attor-
ney Of that county. Should It develop
that the trainmen had made such state
merts Mr. Martin said he would at once
arrange for a special Grand Jury to
investigate the existence OF a possible
conspiracy to force an eight cent fare
by paralyzing the transit system.
Patrolmen of the Alexander avenue
and Morrisania stations reported con-
versations they had with certain strik-
ers. It was alleged the men said they
did not care how long the strike lasted
because they were being paid for their
time. They are credited with saying
that they did not want to go out as they
were making $40 a week straight pay
and could total $40 weekly with overtime
work.
A former Interborough employee told
an investigator from Mr. Martins office
that II the company should publish a
notice In the newspapers advising the
strikers to either return TO work at the
10 per cent, increase recently offered or
consider themselves dismissed the men
would go back in droves. He asserted
that he knew about so per cent. Of the
strikers and was in close touch with
their sympathies.

Indians to Obey State
Game Laws.
/ ..-,.

i Carlos Avery, state game and
fish Commissioner, came up from
St: Paul recently to investigate
conditions among the indians near
'Inger and 1t other places around
Bo@string: lake. Some time ago
j & Murphy, game warden for
Nas.sa county, seized number of
nets used by the Indians for catch
ing fsh for market lin the head
waters Of the Bigfork river. The
Indians demonstrated, alleging
that their ancient treaty privileges
gave them the right to fish and
hunt in any way they pleased. -.
The state game and fish CON-
mission has been investigating this
claim of the Indians, and mas had
extensive CORRESPONDENCE with the
Indian commissioner at Washing
ton. The state attorney general
of Minnesota has also rendered s
decision bearing on this matter.
Fortified with these authorities,
tie state commission contends that
the Indians have no more rights in
game ard fish than white men, es-
pscialIy where they are not living
on a reservation. At lnger and
around Bowstring lake, the To-
dians are living OH their allotments
giving them the same status as
any American citizen, and no
more privileges in regard to game
and fish than any one else.
