DEEDS FOR THE INDIANS

On May Is the Senate passed House bill that authorizes the issuances of deeds to cer- tain Indians or Eskimos for tracts set apart to them in sur veys in town site in Alaska, and to provide for the survey and subdivision of such tracts and of Indian or Eskimo towns or villages.
 This measure was advocated by Delegate Sutherland and had the approval of the 1nteri- or Department. The purpose of the bill is to give title to certain Alaska citizens who are full-blooded Indians, or of mixed blood, who have settled in town and villages on land to which they have no title. There are plenty of instances of this kind in towns like Wrangell, where many Indians live on property marked In dian Possessions on the plats.
 Heretofore there has been no provision whereby the In- terior Department could give these people title to the lands which they now occupy. This bill seeks to cure that defect and empowers the Secretary of the Treasury to give them title to the lands they occupy.

Slightly Under May, 1925- Copper Shipments Show
 Loss From Last Year

Alaskan products shipped to the States last month were valued at $1,220,253, according to the monthly summary of commerce just issued by J. C. McBride, Collector of Customs. The months outgoing ship ments were $192,969 less than those in May, 1925.
 A decrease of $258,62O in copper, which was the cause of the drop from last year, was partly made up by increased fresh fish and canned salmon shipments. Copper dropped from $792,298 for May, 1925, to $533,678 last month.

japanese Emperor
Passes New Crisis

TOKYO, Dec. % (AP)-Uneasi-
ness aroused early tonight by an
official announcement that Emper-
or Yoshihito's condition was some
what worse, was partly allayed by
the statement that he was resting
quietly at midnight. An irregular
pulse and a higher temperature
caused physicians to summon
Prince Regent Hirohito and high
court officials to the monarch S
bedside.
The crisis passed, however, as
many others have done since his
majesty became critically i'll of
pneumonia two weeks ago. The
vitality of the emperor, who has
been an invalid many years, is
causing comment, but those closely
in touch with the case decline to
predict it's outcome.

CHICAGO, Dec. 90 (AP)-Persis-

At first, the wheat market show

Sinclair And Fall
Must Face Trial
On February End

WASHINGTON, Dec. % (AP)--
The last legal maneuver to upset
conspiracy indictments against AL
bert B. Fall, former secretary of
the interior, and Harry F. Sinclair,
growing out of the leasing of the
Teapot Dome naval oil reserve to
Sinclair's Mammoth Oil Company,
failed today and the trial was
docketed to begin in the Supreme
Court of the District of Columbia
on February 2.
Fall and Sinclair both entered
pleas of not guilty after Justice
Jennings Biley had denied two
motions, one in behalf of each de-
fendant, to quash the indictments.
Owen J. Roberts, special gov
eminent prosecutor, suggested the.
trial begin late in January and de-
fense counsel suggested early in
March. Justice Bailey set Febru-
airy 2, after pointing out that the
indictments had been voted in May,
1925, and that demurrers had been
dismissed by the United States Su-
preme Court before the motions to
quash were offered three weeks
ago.
Seek Foreign Witnesses.
The prosecution began final
shaping of it's trial plans by fill
ing application for summons Of
Harry M. Blackmer and James e.
O'Neil, former officials of the Con-
| tinental Trading Company of Can
ada, who are now in France They
were inaccessible as witnesses last
year in the Teapot Dame civil pro-
lceedings in the United States Dis

but the government contended
there that the Continental COM
pany from which Sinclair bought
crude products was the instru-
mentality through which oil prof
its were shared with Fall.

ed last July at the instance of Sen

may be summoned for testimony

NEW YORK, Dec. % lAP)-The
inward movement of stock prices
was resumed today in the face of
the. highest call money rate of the
wear. Operators for the advance,
apparently acting on the theory
that most of the weak holdings had
been eliminated in the reactions of
the last few days, started to bid
ND stocks in all sections of the list,
but the rails and motors gave the
best demonstrations of group
strength.
There was nothing in the days
news to explain the sudden up
swing of prices, other than that
the speculative belief that the mar
ket had not yet fully discounted the
buttons already made or in pros
pect. The latest report on freight
car loadings showed falling off
in comparison with the same week
last year for the first time since
January, while some of the addi-
tional November earnings state
ments making their appearance,
particularly the Southern Paci-
fife. also made unfavorable compari-
sen with the same month last year.

cally every company Of conse-
auence, accompanied the heavy
buying of motor shares although
no authoritative information was
forthcoming regarding prospective
consultations General Motors re-
sponded to the publication of a
favorable November sales state
ment by moving up points to
154 rs and closing near the top,
but the advances in Hudson was
checked by unconfirmed reports of
unsatisfactory last quarter earn
ings although the stock closed
nearly a point higher at 81 SIS.
Nash touched another new record
top for the present stock at 20 rs
and Continental Motors crossed 13
to a new 1926 peak. On the other
hand Hayes wheel touched a new
low at II Is.
A spirited demand developed to-
wards the close for Baldwin Loco

ly five points to 167, the highest
price on record, later selling down
to 165 3-4. Among the dozen or
so other industrials to break into

Einstein himself is not what one

by many of them to be quite insigniti-

however, that he had a certain air of
distinction, something which they
found it hard to explain, but which
they felt
It is certain that Einstein knows
nothing of dress. His clothes appear
as if taken out of the rag bag, and
