NEWS HELD FROM THE PUBLIC White Star Line Officials Said Ship Was Safe After Learning She Had Foundered. FIFTY BELL BOYS DROWNED Met Death With Smiles and Jokes, Refusing to Approach the Lifeboats. Bulletin. St. Johns, N. F., April 22.—Sixty- four bodies have been recovered by the cable steamer Mackay-Bennett which has been searching the vicin-| ity of the Titanic disaster, according to a report that reached this city to- night. It is said a number of bodies which were recovered were sunk again, as they were without identifi- cation marks. The names of those identified could not be obtained through the Cape Race wireless sta- tion. Those that were sunk were presumably in a condition making their preservation impossible. New York, April 22.—Following is a summary of the evidence brought out at Saturday’s Titanic inquiry: The White Star line ship Baltic was notified before 2 a. m. Monday— that the Titanic was sinking fast, and at 10:30 a. m. that she had gone down with most of her passengers and crew, the survivors being on the Carpathia. On the same Monday afternoon, the White Star line notified Con- gressman Hughes of West Virginia that the Titanic was proceeding to Halifax and that all on board were safe. No report was sent from the Car- pathia to justify the statement that the Titanic or her passengers were safe. The advent of the Carpathia upon the scene was the merest accident, the operator catching the distress message as he was retiring for the night, and while waiting for a re- sponse from another ship. Six hours before the Titanic was struck by an iceberg, her captain had received warning that the Cali- fornian in about the same position had passed very close to three large bergs. The first reply received by the Ti- tanic operators to their distress call was from the German liner Frank- fort, which, according to the surviv- ing Titanic operator, ignored the ur- gent demand for assistance. Bride, the surviving Titanic opera- tor, told of seeing people running about the decks of the Titanic just before she went down, searching for lifebelts. Captain Smith of the Titanic, Pride said, jumped from the bridge into the ocean about five minutes be- fore the waves closed over the big ship. He wore no libebelt and Bride never saw him again. Scores of libebelted men and wom- en struggled to get hold of the last hoat, a collapsible, which was thrown into the sea and fell bottom up, and were driven off by officers after it was filled. Liverpool, April 22—Captain Ran- son, of the White Star line steamer Baltic, on arriving at this port Sat- urday from New York, said he had received a message appealing for as- sistance from the Titanic and that the calls broke off abruptly. The Baltic steamed toward the sceme of the disaster for nine hours, when she received a dispatch from the Car- pathia saying all the Titanic’s boats had been picked up, and that no fur- ther assistance was required. . New York. April 22.—Fifty bell- boys on the Titanic went to their death smiling and joking, taking great delight in. breaking the rules against smoking on duty. James fdumphreys, a quartermast- er, who commanded the lifeboats, told how the fifty lads died. They were called to their quarters when the fate of the ship became apparent, and for an hour stuck to their posts while the struggle to get women into the lifeboats went on. Just as the ship sank, they were told to endeav- POVPOOIPOOOOO® OO Mr. Burke a Rooster. | The name of T. J. Burke and not that of George Kreatz should have the “Pine "Roosters.” .

S. N. son of Ms. and Mrs. Henry T. Wick- ham of Richmond, Va. . Northwestern Laundrymen Meét. Minneapolis, Minn., April 22.—In the adulteration of the fabrics by the mwakers, not in the methods of the laundrymen, is to be found the cause for the rapid wearing out of the col- lers and shirts, according to the opinion of the Northwestern Laun- drymen’s association,. which began its annual convention at the West Hotel in this city today. The con- vention is attended by members from many cities and towns in Wisconsin, ITowa, Minnesota and North and South Dakota.

Popular High School Girl Dies of Pneumonia After a Short Illness. After an illness of but nine days, Maude E. Slater, 19 years old, died yesterday morning at 6 o’clock at her home on 1311 Bixby avenue. Miss Slater, a member of the Normal de- partment, had been attending the High school regularly until about a week ago when she was taken sick with pneumonia. Though quite ill her parents held no doubts for her recovery until Saturday morning. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George W. Slater, and leaves beside her parents one brother, Les- lie.

This is some- where near the average for the last ten-year period previous to this year, The annuities this year are in excess of nine dollars, the Indian Bureau having managed to increase it, no doubt, on account of the present agl- tation of White llarth matters. This {8 all the mixed-bloods get. Some of the full-licods get the rations when the agent thinks they are in need. The mixed-hlvods are self-support- ing, absolutely, znd have been for many years, and the $5.35 per year is merely an incident. It does not help them much, and the loss of it woula not make any diiierence in their style of living. Most of the full-bloods also support themselves by hunting and fishing, and the $5.35 annuity has usually come in handy to buy some cheap clothes. So that the theory which prevails that the government supports the In. dians is clearly a mistake. Instead of that the Indians support a horde of ofiiccholders saddled on them by the government. On the ‘White Earth reservation there are ninety-one government em- ployes drawing salaries at the pres- ent time, in the regular establishment and eighteen in the Burch corps. These figures may not be absolutely correct, but are near enough. Many of these are necessary, and many are not. For instance there is a superin. tendent of a saw mill that has not turned a wheel for three years draw- ing $125 per month; there is a “farm- er” who has not been kncwn to work for months, drawing $100 per month, etc. Besides the regular force the Burch corps has been on the reservation for three years, headed by Judge Burch, who drawe $5,000 per year, and con- tains amcng others Judge Burch’s nephew, Arthur M. Seelkel, who draws $290 per month for doing abstract work that competent help could be secured for at $75 per month. Even the judge's adopted son, a boy of four- teen or fifteen, has managed to con- nect with the government payroll at $75 per month, There were NINE MILLION DOL. LARS in the Chippewa Indian funds. AT THE PRESENT TIME THERE 18 LESS THAN '$4,000,000. ‘The diiference of $5,000,000 repre- sents what has been spent “for the relief and civilization of the Indians.” And right here is the big issue in the fight about White Earth reserva- tion affairs. No itemized statement of who this money has been paid to has so far been obtained from the Indian Bureau. Congressman Steenerson has for several years tried to obtain such a statement, but has so far been unable to get it. The Indlan Bureau evidently has serfous objections to giving out such a statement. Can it be that this al- leged investigation of the Indian Bu- reau, by confusing the issue, is de- signed to protect it from the necessity of having to make such a statement? WHAT HAS BECOME OF THE FIVE MILLION DOLLARS? No amount of wielding of the slush bucket by the government lawyers; no amount of sensational trembling for his country by the chairman of the committee; no amount of effort to dis- credit Senator Clapp and Mr. Steener- gon by the administration at Washing- ton will be satisfactory as an answer to this question the Indians are ask- ing, and the answer to which they have a right to know. There i¢ a feeling among the In- dians that any.of their money that goes into the government treasury will never come out again except in the form of salary checks to white of- ficlals. This feeling is justified by bitter experience, and is back of the unanimous demand for such legisla- tion as the allotment acts, the Clapp act, and the present demand for the distribution of the tribal funds. The Clapp act was not a perfect law. It had a serious defect in that it did not provide for an official roll of mixed-bloods and full-bloods before the restrictions were removed. But it was what the Indians wanted, and had the Indian Bureau kept liquor off the reservation, as the law provides they should do, and for which they are pald big salaries, it would have been a Buccess. As it is many of the mixed-bloods have spent the money they got for their lands. Others have it or its _— SECOND GENTRY TRIAL. * | Maurice Weightman is Defendant— Case Here on Change of Venue. El Reno, Okla., April 22.—The case of Maurice Weightman, one of the defendants in the Gentry mur- der case at Oklahoma City, was called for trial here today, having been brought to El Reno on' change of venue. Weightman' is acgused of complicity in the murder of T. J. Gentry, who was shot and killed. in his home on the night of January 7 last. The murder {s alleged to have re- sulted from a conspiracy formed by Mrs. Alverta Gentry, wife of the slain man; Weightman, her brother, and Jesse K. Mackey, who is said to have been on' terms of intimacy with the wite. Mrs. Gentry has been con- |vance, equivalent in properiy and some have greatly increased their share. Those who Bave spert their share have gone to work and are making a living just as they did before. None of them are starving and few of them are doing any complaining. Many of them have braced up and are taking a new start, having learned the value of having money by the loss of it. After the removal of restrictions and the inrush of land buyers and speculators, and the total abandon- ment of all restraint upon the liquor traffic, such scandal resulted that the interfor department called on the de- partment of justice to furnish govern- ment lawyers to straighten out the complicated land frauds in court. Judge M. C. Burch, who had just been displaced as division chief, was given this Indian litigation, as he says as his “last case,” and he at once pro- ceeded to so plan things as to make it last for the balance of his natural life. He invented a new definition of “mixed-blood,” contrary to-the estab- lished rule, so as to make it include only persons who had more white than Indian blood. This enabled him to bring several hundred suits which no one had dreamed of before, until he has now instituted more then 1,200 suits in equity, involving as many eighty acre tracts of land. It is true that only one question is involved in all, and that is: Who is a mixed- blood, within the meaning of the act? This litigation and threatened litiga- tion unsettled all titles, stopped all improvement and development, to the detriment of all the people, including the Indians, stepped payment of taxes, and threatened to close the public schools. Congressman Steenerson was appealed to and he introduced bills for remedial legislation. One of these provided for a commission to make authentic rolls of mixed-bloods and full-bloods separately, and was intend- ed to equitably and justly dispose of the apparently endless litigation. But here Mr. Steenerson ran against a snag in the shape of a lot of hungry government attorneys and their as- sistants whose occupation would be gone if the 1,200 suits were disposed of. Their chief very shrewdly went before the committee to investigate the interior department and asked for an Investigation of his own client, the interior department, and when he got it, after revamping the old scandals growing out of the administration of the Nelson and Morris and other acts for the disposal of Indian timber, pro- ceeded to lay all the blame for mis- management of Indian property to the law and to congress. In this way it was sought to not only discredit Sen- ator Clapp and Mr. Steenerson, but te defeat the proposed remedial legisla- tion, which threatened to cut short the salaries of these hungry lawyers and their dependents. ‘But Mr. Steenerson, by reason of his independence and fearlessness, had incprred -hostility in still higher quarters. 'By his opposition to admin- istration measures, notably Canadian reciprocity, he had put himselt beyond the pale of executive favor, and ne doubt these men who are now doing the dirty work were given a free hand in the attempt to destroy the political reputations of Senator Clapp and Mr. Steenerson. This is the real animus of the whole matter, but the people will understand that this hostility is but an incident of the fight their representative has mnade in their behalf, and will rally to his support more strongly than ever. Tribal Funds. At the present rate it will be only a question of a few years anyway, un- til the tribal funds of the White Earth Indians will be all spent by the In- dian Bureau. The best that could happen to them would be a division of the funds, after enough is set aside to care for the old and the infirm. Then let the capable ones take their place among the ordinary citizens of the re. public. The tribal relations are of no value to them, and a sum so insignifi- cant a8 $5.35 per year is of little value. And the most peculiar feature of the Graham investigation was the reports sent out cf the discovery of disease and destitution among the full-bloods, in view of the fact that the govern- ment has 109 employes on the reserva- tion looking after the welfare of the Indians—one for each ten full-bloods. Among these are five doctors. If this little army of Indian protectors could not discover disease and destitution | after spending years in the work, could it be reasonably expected that Congressman Steenerson could know of it? < victed and sentenced to life impris- onment for her share in the crime. Mackey made a complete confession to secure immunity, attaching all the blame upon the wife and her| brother. STRIKERS BACK T0 WORK. New Wage Scale Affecting 15,000 o Workers Put in Force.

SYINEVE 0L ISTYAINI J0 Announces Thgt Subject Matter Will Treat of Development of Country. RECEPTION AFTER THE ADDRESS To Be Held in Commercial Club Rooms and Will Be Open to All Interested. James J. Hill, known the world over as the “Empire Builder of the Great Northwest,” will speak in Be- midji Wednesday evening at 8:30 D. m., his address having a special sig- nificance for the farmers and bear- ing particalarly on the development of this country. It will be Mr. Hill’s first visit to Bemidji, as he has never before taken time to stop off. Mr. Hill is scheduled to arrive from St. Paul by a special train over the Great Northern, coming via Sauk Center, and is due in here at 5:30 p. m. He will be met by a delegation of the leading men of Bemidji and all will then be taken on an auto ride through the country near the city. Returning from the ride, Mr. Hill will be entertained at dinner in the Markham by the directors of the Commercial club only. In' the evening, Mr. Hill will de- liver his address in the Armory, on {Bemidji avenue, and no seats will be reserved, a general inyitation hav- ing been issued to all who can at- tend. Following the speech, he will be driven to the Commercial club rooms where an informal reception will be held and Mr. Hill will per- sonally meet those who wish to say 3 word to him. Outside of the speech which Mr. Hill will deliver in the Armory; in- terest centers in what he will say regarding a new depot for the Great Northern railroad in this city and also concerning the opening of the line running north from Wilton to- wards Island Lake. Bemidji people have long wanted a new Great Northern depot as the present one was built when this city was but a clearing in the woods. The Wil- ton road is wanted open as many people in that section of the country now find it difficult to come here to trade. Directors of the Commercial club pointed out that if Mr. Hill is not greeted by a large crowd, it might be construed that interest is lacking not only in development information but in the other matters of new depot and Dbetter railroad service.
