— FRANGIS E. LUEPP SAYS INDIANS SHOULD BE FREE Commissioner Believes Indians Should Be Classified and Later Given Freedom. Washington, Oct. 29.—With a view of the government cutting loose from the Indians of this country at the earliest practicable moment, Francis E. Leupp, commissioner of Indian affairs, has under considera- tion a plan to take a census’ of the Indians touching their educational qualifications and the ability to handle their own business affairs. He proposes to classify them into three classes, theflrst class to be composed of Indians who are com- petent to run their own affairs, the second to be composed of those who know the meaning of a contract and the third class to be composed of those who lutely incompetent to ‘transnct busi- ness. Mr. Leupp believes that the government should cut entirely loose from the first class of Indians. He doesn’t believe they should be given any protection from the government. As to the second class of Indians, he says the government probably should prevent them from selling their land, especially their home- steads, but that it should let them go ahead and make their own con- tracts for leasing and the like; then if they get the worst of it let them suffer. If they get their eye teeth cut in a few deals they will learn to be more careful in their business transactions. The Indians of the third class still would have to be protected by the government until they acquired a few rudiments of business. Then they would be turned loose to shift for themselves. “The best thing that could happen to a big portion of the Indians would be to lose every dollar and every foot of land they have,” Commis- sioner Leupp said. ‘“Then they are abso- would have to get down and work for a living. That would make in- dustrious citizens out of them. They would be better off and so would Earfhquake Destroys Whole Town.

Alleged Stolen Funds Used to Run Rival Establishment. New York, Oct. 30.—Picore Rive- malles, who for mors than five years has been a trusted cashier at the Cafe Martin, has been held to the grand Jury on the charge of embezzlement. The story of Rivesalles’ alleged pecu- Iations, as told by J. B. Martin, has many peculiar features, the most re- markable of which is the opening of a rival establishment on the money Mr. Martin says he admitted having taken, “We always looked upon Rivesalles a8 an honest man and have never had the slightest trouble with his accounts untll this recent bank scare came on,” sald Mr. Martin. “You can imagine our surprise when the Investigation developed that Rivesalles had opened a minlature Cafe Martin in West Thirty-fourth street and was doing a thriving business. He had fitted the place out in every respect llke our place and had made it resemble it in every possible way, even to the en- trance with the large sofa and marbla top tables in it. It developed also that, like his employers, he had an account at the Lincoln Trust com- pany and did his own banking busi- ness at the same time as he did ours. “Then, too, we learned he purchased all of the supplies for his cafe from the same persons with whom we traded and, of course, they thought, 88 he had been with us so long, that his credit was perfectly good. “What do you think of the nerve of the man? Here for the last six months he has been using our money freely to conduct a rival establish- ment and had succeeded in keeping it perfectly quiet untll this recent bank scare caused us to look up our bal- ances ST - President and Cabinet Confer. ‘Washington, Oct. 30.—President Roosevelt was in conference with all the members of his cabinet except Becretary Taft for more than two bours.

HARRIMAN RESPONSIBLE Orders to Discharge Thousands of Men and to'Cut Expenses in Every Possible Way Said to Have Em- anated From Head of the Road. Omaha, Oct. 30.—The Union Pacific rallroad has discharged between 4,000 and 8,000 workmen. This is official and Is authenticated by General Su- perintendent Park, assistant to Vice President Orr. The discharged men are from the construction department and every piece of comstruction work on the entire system {s abandoned. The Lane cutoff, west of Omaha, which has cost $5,000,000 and three years’ work and which would have been finished in fifteen days, has been abandoned. E. H. HARRIMAN., Work has been stopped on all con- struction in Kansas City and along the Kansas division, including the new line between Topeka and Lincoln, Neb, The work on the new shops in Omaha has been temporarily aban- doned. None of the operating force has been discharged and probably will not be for some time. On this point Gen- eral Superintendent Park says: “We expect a curtailment of busi- ness and as fast as this occurs we will lay oft train crews. For the present this will not be done; our orders are to dispense with every available man and to stop every plece of construc- tion work on the system. We are or- dered to cut expenses in every pos- sible way.” These orders came from New York, but the officials would not say who issued them. E. H. Harriman is the only official of the Union Pacific higher than Omaha officials. The Burlington and the Northwest- ern roads, which have headquarters in the city, are proceeding with their work., When asked if the Northwest- ern would follow the Union Pacific’s actlon General Manager Walters of the lines west of the Missouri river said: “No, we are too busy to quit work and lie idle.” GENERALLY SATISFACTORY Financial Conditions Throughout the West. Chicago, Oct. 30.—The financial con- dition throughout the West is satis- factory in general to the banks and to the majority of business interests. In all the money centers trade was on the check and certificate plan and the banks were holding as closely as pos- sible to the reserves of currency. The banks in Kansas reported themselves as in a particularly strong situation, many of them having fully 50 per cent in excess of the ordinary legal re- serve. In Oregon Governor Chamberlain hag issued a proclamation making the next five days legal holidays in order to prevent a currency famine. All of the banks in Portland, from whence this news came, were absolutely sound and there was no run or sign of a run upon any of them, They not only have standing accounts in the East, but during the last few months have loaned millions of dollars to Eastern bankers. The banks in Spokane have decided to take actlon similar to that of Chi- cago and New York ‘banks in order to protect their cash reserves. All financial institutions there are report- ed to be in excellent condition and there never has been a time when the general prosperity has been so great as now, but the bankers consid- ered it prudent to adopt the plan which has been put in force in other citles. At Kansas City the Wyandotte State bank, with deposits of $500,000, was absorbed by the Commercial National bank. The Institution was entirely solvent and will be kept open for sev- eral days for the convenience of cus- tomers. Capitalist Robbed of $14,000. ‘Washington, Oct. 80.—The police have recelved information that Will- lam J. Payne of Richmond, Va., pres- ident of the Newport News Gas com: pany and connected with other large enterprises, while on his way from Washington to New York was robbed of a leather grip contalning $14,000 in bond and stock certificates. The rob- bery was committed, it is said, while Mr. Payne was taking a nap in a Pulle man, DENIES ALL ALLEGATIONS Mrs, r\inkje‘- Reply to Husband’s Lat- est Legal Action. Pittsburg, Oct. 30.—Mrs, Mary Scott Hartje has filed with the su- perior court in Philadelphia an answer to the brief filed by her husband, Au- Bustus Hartje, several weeks ago, in which he requested that the divorce case be reopened in order to enable him to Introduce additional newly dis- covered testimony. Mrs. Hartje de. nies all the allegations Wwhich Hartje Accoraing to reports from Philad phia Hartje has filed a petition with the court to strike Mrs, Hartje's an- swer off the record becayse it is irrelevant and impertinent, Hartje also filed a supplemental brief, with copies of the love letters alleged to have been written by Mrs. Hartje to Tom Madine, one of the coachmen corespondents in the case. These letters are alleged by Hartje to be of an Inoriminating character. Mrs, Hartje stoutly denies that she ever wrote Madine a letter. She con- tends that she is belng harrassed by pald servants in the employ of her husband. Affidavits are attached to her answer showing that Madine had been repeatedly offered large sums to turn traltor to the woman. Madine recently made a confession in Can- ada acknowledging intimacy with Mrs, Hartje. He has since gone to Ireland, ‘where he purchased a hotel. The answer of Mrs. Hartje is ac- companied by affidavits from her sis- ters, Ida and Helen Scott, daughters of John F. Scott, alleging that the let- ters written to Howard W. Lappe were by his dictation. RATE CASES COMPARED. Minnesota’s More Important Than North Carolina’s. ‘Washington, Oct. 30.—Testimony in the North Carolina rate cases, where- in Judge Pritchard of the federal cir- cuit court sought to restrain the state officials from putting in the rates es- tablished by the state legislature, is now being taken before a master at the offices of the Southern Rallway in ‘Washington. The purpose of the taking of testi- mony and the securing of the balance sheets of the Southern Railway is to ascertain whether or not the rates es- tablished by the state were conflsca- tory. The Minnesota case differs from that of North Carolina in some respects in that Federal Judge Lochren actually declared in substance that the rates, ag provided for in the commodity rate law of April 18 last, were confiscatory and that he took into consideration and passed upon the evidence submit- ted by the roads bearing on this ques- tion. In North Carolina the Sonthern Rail- way gave up its fight in the face of Governor Glenn’s threat to dissolve it and the stockholders of the line did not come to the rescue of the officers as in the Minnesota case. Hence the latter case is more important inas- much as it will be the first to be re- viewed by the federal supreme court. NOT AFFECTED AS YET. Graln Movement to the Head of the Lakes Continues. Duluth, Oct. 30.—The grain move- ment to the Head of the Lakes will not be interrupted for the present at least by the financial troubles. At a conference between the comptrollers of the Northern Pacific and Great Northern rdads and the directors of the Duluth board of trade an under- standing was reached whereby the cars will be handled as rapidly as they come forward. The roads are anxious to prevent a congestion here and keep the cars moving in order to get the crops into. the clevators be- fore navigation closes. The Duluth board of trade is doing no trading. The trading room is open, but the members have agreed to make no trades until the financial clouds have passed. The action was neces- sary for the same reason that the Western banks had to suspend pay- ment of FEastern checks. Duluth grain firms are large exporters and they were paying out their cash in re- turn for clearing house checks on New York banks. The country elevators have ceased buying grain for the pres- ent, but are taking for storage. HARRIMAN POINTS MORAL. Recent Financlal Crisis a Great Les- son, He Says. New York, Oct. 30.—“We have passed through a trying time. We have seen the stucco front of charac- ter flake away and disappear. We have seen false structures crumble. It has been a great {llumination and the lesson is that the sturdy methods of the forefathers are the best; the pursuit of ‘isms’ chimerical. It is a bitter lesson and my heart goes out to those who have suffered, but good will come of it all.” This was the way in which E. H. Harriman expressed himself in talk- Ing in his office with a reporter about the recent financial crisls. He added: “I think the storm has cleared. 1 have seen many of them. Recovery is a matter of conjecture, so far as time 18 concerned, but it always works out eventually. I think the time is not far distant when we shall look back on this present stormy session, consider the price of gilt edged securi- tles and then wonder why we did not pawn our watch chalns and buy stocks.” New Orleans Exchanges Close.
