PROVISIONS FOR SELLING RESERVATIONS The Finest Land in the Eastern Part of the State. THE PILL BEFORE CONGRESS Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. HOLTON, Kan., February 10, 1895. Kansas, once the home of the Indian, will in a short time know him no more. The encroachments of civilization have driven him from the state; his reserva- tions have been cut up into farms and the white man now tills the ground over which he once engaged in the chase. Today but two small reservations remain, and they are about to be wiped out. The bill of Rep- resentative Case Broderick ef this city, which will probably pass Congress, will blot out the Pottawatomie and Kickapoo reservations. It provides that with the consent of a majority of the chiefs, head men and male adults of these two tribes in Jackson end Brown counties, expressed in cpen council, the Secretary of the Interior shall be authorized to sell, in trust for the Indians, the surplus of the Jackson county Pottawatomie reservation and the Brown county Kickapoo reservation. ‘The lands are to be appraised in tracts of eighty acres by three commissioners, one of whom !s to be selected by the In- dians ard the other two by the Secretary of the Interior. Yo the Highest Bidder. After the afpraisement the Secretary is to offer the lands, through the Topeka land office, at public sale to the highest bidder. None of the land is to be sold for less than 36 an acre, and purchasers must be over twenty-one years of age and buy for actual occupancy and settlement. Each hase is to be Himited to 160 acres, and payments may be made In foer install- ments, one-quarter down at the time of chase. The bill exempts from its pro- ions the lands on which stand the two boarding or industrial schools, and re- serves not exceeding 640 acres for each school. i Of the land in the two reservations that of the Pottawatomies will be most sought. The total area is 5 7 acres. Four years ago Congress passed an act directing the Pottawatomies to select their separate allotments of ground before Sep- tember 1, 184. The amount allotted to each head of a family was 160 acres, and to each woman and child 80 acres. Where the person receiving land was obliged to take up land of less valuable soil he gets double the amount. About 450 of the 700 members of the tribe complied with the law voluntarily, but the remaining 250 de- clined to do so, and the land was allotted to them. Fine Farming Land. The reservation consists of the finest farm- ing lands in eastern Kansas. Most of It has been thoroughly cultivated by the In- dians, who are thrifty and industrious. They live in substantial houses, and some of them have erected pretentious _resi- dene In 1S74 there were but five houses on the re e occupied by Indians. In 1882 there were 105, and at the present time there are nearly 200. Their fields are surrounded by some of the best rail fences in Kansas, made of geod oak and walnut, eight rails high, staked and double-ridered. ixty per cent of the Indians have good gardens, in which they ra: a freat variety of ables in their season. They rai: corn and hogs for market in considerable quantities and sell other products. They use the most modern farm implements and the average Indian has skill to that degree that he can properly use them. They have large herds of cattle, horses, swine and sheep and hun- dreds of fow Indian Boarding School. An Indian bearding school was located at the new mission, fifteen miles seuthwest of Holton, in 1875. The grounds embrace six- ty-three acres and on the farm kere open- ed the Indiaa children are taught to labor and are instructed in good methods of hus- bandry. The school building, oarding house, laundry and barn cost $ rhe institution is supported from interest on an $80,000 fund, in charge of the Interior Department. The permanent annuity fund of vhe impr: ment fund is $15,000. general fund, with accrued interest, making the total amou credit of the Pot- tawatomi ly Incr lands. Retaining Tribal Government. There is no disposition on the part of the Indians since the allotments have been made to sever their tribal relations or abandon their tribal government, go far as it can be maintained under the new conditions. The tribal government will have the disposition of the interest on the fund that is now and which Its hereafter to be placed in charge of the Interior De- partment. It will be used for the mainte- nance of schools, improvements of roads and such other things as will contribute to the general welfare of the Indian citi- zens. There will be a great rush for the surplus lands as soon as they ere placed upon the market, and the result will be a considerable increase in the white popu- lation of Jackson county. The original reservation of the Kickapoo tribe occupied parts of Brown, Atchison and Jackson counties, and included a ter- ritory about thirty miles square. It now embraces bout thirty sections in the vich bottoms of the Delaware river and its tributaries. The treaty with the tribe, by which they gave up part of their posses- sions, was made June 28, 1882, and was ratified a year later. By this act the Cen- tral branch of the Union Pacific Railway Company obtained possession of 125,000 acres of land. For this the Kickapoos re- ceived the government price of $1.25 per acre. When this sale was made about 690 of the tribe, who chose to move to the Indian territory, were alloted a portion of the Sae and Fox reservations. The first loca- tion of the Kickapoos in Kansas was near Fort Leavenwerth, on the southeast cor- ner of their reservation. They were more industrious and their habits were general- ly more correct than those of many tribes of the north. The more rapid improve- ment of this tribe was, in a large meas- due to the influence of Kenakue, the “Kickapoo prophet,” who removed to the Indian territory with the tribe and founded a religious sect among them, teaching and practicing himself the doctrine of sobriety, industry and honesty. The prophet num- bered among his adherents a large portion of the tribe. ———— The Rival Hairdressers. Frem the Amusing Journal.

Hart and Anson have con- spired to keep Fred Pfeffer out of base ball. The Dispatch says: “When Pfeffer attempted to organize an American Association club in Chicago three years ago, and followed this by the effort to establish a club in the new association of more recent date, he touched Spalding on the raw. o “Hart had a few little grudges of his own to work out, for Pfeffer has taken no pains to conceal -his contempt for the Spalding henchman. “As for Anson, jealousy has long existed in his mind against the clever second base- man—the hest the world ever saw—who for years had so well played his position in the Chicago club that Anson was re- ceiving the credit which belonged to an- other. To be more explicit, it is 2 well- Known fact that never since Pfeffer left the Spalding club has Anson been able to make as good a record as during the time he had Pfeffer to assist him in guarding first base. Few second basemen would ever accept the chances which properly belonged to Anson, and none of them would allow Anson to take all the credit. Time and time again did Pfeffer’s great work make it possible to win a game, while his enthusiasm, suggestions and pluck were credited to Anson. These things are known now, and for that reason Anson would no more play in a game with Pfeffer than he would with a yellow «: The Arlington Race Meeting.

His car, containing a dozen horses, was sidetracked near Washington, the switch not working properly, an express train which followed crashed into the car, se- verely injuring that good four-year-old Ap- pomattox, by Stratford, owned by the Cedar Hiil stable, and knocking the other about so badiy that they will not jy to race for some time.

Mr. Freedman's information con- cerning Rusie is not of the cheeriest, for he 1s very bitter against the big pitcher. He safd that he had acted in a most lib- eral manner toward Amos, offering him a pretty large advance in salary, but that the player's demand was exorbitant. ‘he new magnate went on to say that he had submitted Rusie’s case to Messrs. Spald- ing and Talcott and that their advice was not to give in. He further said that if Rusie did not accept the terms they might be withdrawn and he would be mulcted for each day he did not report after April 1. The signing of Pitcher Knauss was a big surprise at headquarters. It appears that the twirler gave Davis satisfactory evi- dence that his arm was all right and a conditional contract was drawn up.

GOLD PRODUCTION IN: 1894 United States Stands First and Australia Second. South Africa is Third in the List— A Reduced Output of the Valu- able Yellow Metal. From the Engineering Mining Journal. We have from time to time through the year referred to the increased activity in gold mining in this country, as well as in other parts of the world, and have called attention to the probability that the year 1894 would show a considerable gain in our production of the yellow metal. We have now collected the statistics of our output for the year in sufficient detail to be able to say that the United States still holds the first rank among the gold producers, with an output of nearly $41,000,000 as compared with $35,960,000 in 1893, an advance of about 5,000,000, or 14 per cent. The chief gain has been in Colorado, where the Cripple Creek district has nearly doubled its output, and Leadville has also added an important contribution. Califor- nia also shows an increase in amount, though less in proportion than Colorado. To this statement we have added below some notes of the gold output of other countries from the advance reports re- ceived. The gold output of the Witwatersrand district in the Trarsvaal for December is reported at 182,104 ounces, the largest monthly production ever reported, and ex- ceeding by 5,397 cunces that of September last, which was previously the highest on record. Thig makes the total production of the Witwatersrand mines for the year 3 ounces, an amount which com~- 3 ounces for 1893; 1,210,- 865 ounces for 729,225 ounces for 1801, and 494,869 ounces for 1890. At the usual value of Witwatersrand gold—S00 fine— this would make the output equivalent to 1,619,330 fine ounces of gold, and its value, 71,551, For the other districts of the ‘Transvaal the December returns have not yet been received, but estimating the amounts for December at the same rate as that for October and November, their pro- duct for the year would be 14,900 ounces, equivalent to 11,920 fine @unces of gold. ‘This would make the total production of the Transvaal for 18)4_ 1,681,250 tine ounces, with a value of $33,717,940. Tt is to be re- gretted that the excellent reperts made by the Johannesberg Chamber of Mines do not give the output in fine ounces. This is 2 fault found also In many other returns. South Africa Fields. While showing a large increase over 1893, this is not sufficient to put South Africa in the first rank es a gold producer, as scme of its ardent friends predict. Its out- put for 1894 is about $8,000,000 below that of the United States, which was $41,000,000, and also below that of lia, so that it will still hold third Urdoubtedly a considerable addition will be made to the South African production during the current year by the extension of workings on the Witwatersrand, and by the opening up of the promising dis- tricts in Mashonaland and Matabeleland, scme of which wiil be represented in the producing list during the present year. The deep-level mines cn the Witwatersrand, of which such high expectations are enter- tained, can hardly become producers be- fore 1896, although some of the shafts have already reached a considerable depth. On the other hand, the large accumula- tions of tailings, the working o? which hy the cyanide process bas added largely to the production during 1894, has be rearly used up, and the “cyanide gold’ will hereafter come from the tailings pro- zced in current worl only. exports from British Gutani ally reported for the year, were 1 valued at $2,310, The to ports fer 1893 were 1 0 ounces, § irg a decrease last year of 13,118 ounces, or 9.2 per cent. The actual production is rot yet officially reported, but as very nearly all the gold found is exported, the abcve figure may be taken to represent the output, with only a small margin. The valuation given shows that the gold avér- aged .SY5 tine, so that the exports for 1804 ‘ank. as ),671 were equivalent to 106,078 ounces of fine geld. The total value of the gold rted from Western A lia in 1804 i rted by telegraph at £787,100 (about 100); the quantity is not given. In 1893 the gold exported was 110,891 ounces, valued at £421,183, so that the increase last year was {265,917, to 87 per cent, a gain due to the remarkable development of the Coolgardie almost entirely.

Since then it has been increasing, though with some fluctuations. In 1891 it rose to 89,208 ounces, and further increased to 45,110 ounces in 1892. In 1893 there was a set-back, and the output fell to 37,230 ounces. In 1894, however, there has been a large increase, and, with a portion of De- cember estimated, the production is given fat 33,000 ounces, which is the greatest amount reported in any year since 18SI. ‘This increase is due partly to the opening of several new workings, but largely to in- creased activity in the older districts. The Colar gold field in India, which in the first half of 1894 showed some reduc- tion in output, more than made up the de- ficiency in the second half, and reports for 1894 a total of 209,714 ounces gold, against 207,135 ounces fcr 18%, an increase last year of 2,579 ounces, or 1.3 per cent. The results of the different operations in the district showed great variations, however; of the four companies which produce to- gether 97 per cent of the tota) the Cham- pion Reef increased its production from 5 H ounces, while the Mysore and the Nundydroog and Ooregum showed small decreases. For the last five years the growth of this field has heen variable; in 15% the output was 104 2 ounces, which increased to 30, 1891, to 163,140 ounces in 189: ounces in and to x ounces in 18%. The small gain last indicates a check in devel- opment for the time. a MORE TURKISH OUTRA aES. Villages Over Thirty Burned and the Stock Destroyed.
