rs j Secnceneateeeiniaeoee FOR STATEHOOD. | The Idea Popular in Oklahoma and the! Indian Territory. ONLY CHEROKEES OBJECT. Their Lobby Lively as Crickets—Oftice- | holders of the Territory Slyly Infla- encing Congressmen Against Statehood Measures -—1he Other Proposed New | Stutes. WASHINGTON, Jan Delegate Har- | vey has received twenty-three messages | from Oklahoma and Indian territory, dealing with the statchood question ; alone. As he expressed it, a cyclone seems to have broken loose in that country on the question. All the mes- Sages received were urging the passage | ofa bill making a state of Oklahoma, | but two of those coming from the five rivilized tribes suggest that the five civilized tribes should not be included in the statehood bill. They come from the Cherokee country. In explanation of this Harvey stated that he was perfectly familiar with the feeling on the question in the Indian country, and he is positive that the In- dians asarule are favorable to state- hood outside the Cherokee country. In the Cherokee nation he says stubborn opposition will be met and the friends of the bill must act on this basis. In this connection it may be of inter- est to state that the Cherokee lobbyi: are at work earnestly fighting the state- hood sentiment. They have resorted | to all the means in their power and will continue on this line with all pos- sible resources. It seems probable that a number of delegations representing the various tewns in Oklahoma, and some of those in the Indian territory, will come here toassist in the work. Goy. Seay and some of the other territorial officers have signified by wire their willingness to come here and work for the bill pro- vided itis thought advisable for them to assume a conspicuous attitude on the question. >» The friends of statehood agree that unless the bill is passed this session the «juestion of making a state of Oklahoma will be more problematic for the next two years, at least, than ever. An im- portant reason for reaching this conclu- sion is found in the fact that the incom- ing territorial officers will secretly, if not openly, oppose such legislation; they, like all other territorial officers who hope to continue their jobs, will be looking after their own personal in- terests. In addition they will have more influence with the political pow- ers of the times than all the other peo- ple of the one or two territories com- bined. The most formidable opposition to the three-state bill comes from the com- bined aspirants for territorial offices. They aim to be sly and misleading as far as their motives and secret work are concerned, but occasionally one of them gets confidential with the wrong man and in this way their exact position is ascertained. It is openly asserted by the friends of the statehood bill that of all the gubernatorial aspirants of Okla- homa here, Sidney Clarke is the only one who is working to make a state of Oklahoma this session, while all the others are either painfully apathetic or secretly working against it. Senators Dubois and Carey while very anxious to have Arizona admitted asastate along with Oklahoma, New Mexico and Utah, say they will gladly work for the three-state bill, but aim, if possible, to have Arizona added, ‘They have resolved upon this plan, de- spite the earnest appeal of Delegate Smith and Governor Murphy, of Ari- zova. who take a middle of the road po- sition for their territory. They insist they will resort toactive parliamentary warfare before submitting to the plan of being left out. s c. TAL L SENSATION. President Mosher 4 owledges His Gullt | and is Probably tndicted. Lixcotn, Neb., Jan. 27.—The Capital National bank failure has taken a still more sensational turn. In inspecting the books Examiner Griffith discovered a number of discrepancies, especially as regards the certificates of deposit of state money, so serious in their nature that he went before the United States grand jury now in session here and laid the facts before them. President Mosher was brought before the jury | and made a voluntary statement. He | acknowledged that he was responsible , for the whole trouble and was ready to ' bear the blame for it all. It is said! that Le broke down and cried like a | child, meking a clean breast of his con- nection with the bank; that it had not } been making money for some time, but dividends had been paid in order to; avoid any investigation. The grand, jury examined a number of witnesses, | 1 among them the cashier of the bank, | R. C. Outeolt, and returned a number ; of indictments. It is not positively known but generally credited that three | of them are against Mosher. He is | locked up in a room at the Lincoln | hotel. Action at Topeka.

IN TRUE BORDER S Bandits Rob a Bank and Commit Murder at Wayerly, Kan — Caught Aftera Long Fight. Waverly, Kau, Jan.—Two masked and heavily armed men this after- noon robbed Mrs. Jennie Fish+1’s | bank, shot and killed A. P. Ingle- man, a farmer, and escaped only to | be captured a few hours later after a long running fight. The raid was as daring as any in the long list the border furnishes. The men rode in- to town on horse back about three o'clock and hitched their horses to a corn crib just west of the bank. They then put on masks, and Win chesters in hand, boldly entered the bank and ordered Cashier Duvall and Aasistant Cashier Converse to | throw up their hands. They com plied with alaerity. One of the rob bers kept the two men covered with his Winchester while the other coolly went to the front of the bank and pulled down the curtains so that any chance passer by could not see what was going on withiv. Return ing form this task both of the reb- bers proceeded to go through tne drawers in the front counter. found only $200. money was in the safe at the time,as there were only two officials in the bank at the time and no press of business. merchant entered to make a deposit. Cashier Duvall called tohim to run. | The robber who was guarding Du- vall and Converse turned and fled. As the robbers left the bank A. P. Inglemen, a farmer who happen ed to be passing by, took in the sit- uation and started in pursuit down the alley, tiring on them as he ran. They turned on him and fired two shots. Both took effect, one passing through his head and the other through the right breast. Ingleman dropped dead in his tracks. The robbers then mounted their horses and passed out of the alley intoa street and headed westward, they spurred on. A posse armed with shot guns and revolvers was soon in full pursuit. The robbers had rid den rapidly, but only had a start of about two miles when they saw the posse in shooting distance. They ‘turned in their saddles and fired. A running fight ensued for about two hours. Soon after the posse started from Waverly a telephone message was sent to Lebo that the bank had been robbed, one man killed, and that the robbers, twoin number, wel! armed aud mounted, were headed in that direction with a posse of Waverly | men in pursuit. The citizens of Lebo headed by Mayor Whilden and Mashal Ed mond hurriedly mustered a posse of eight men and started east to head off the robbers. miles west of Lebo the posse, in tak- ing a detour in northerstely direc- | ti spied the two men inthe :oad and goiag directly north. The posse! were first apprised of the fact that they were the robbers by a velley from their Winchesters. The fire was returned with interest and kept They | Most of the | Just then T.
