The westerner, who many individual Red Omaha und Winnebago tribes, that shortly before President Har- ding died he had presented his pro- posed remedices for the Indian bureau to him and that the late executive had assured him that an Investiga- tion would be made. “An overhauiing of the entire de- partment is e sential if jusiice is to be done the Indian.” said Mr. Rave. ¥I am not referring, though, to the heads of the government, for they are not responsible.

Corps area commanders, acting thousands, besides probating estates iunder instructions from the War De- of deceased Indians is a function de- manding the highest concept of moral duty and efficiency—this is not to be found in the subordinate personnel of the bureau toda; After detailing several specific cases of what he termed “flaring incon- the Indian representative that Congress was not to blame. he ~continued. “Congress stands ready and willing to legis- late remedies, but the remedy not so much in new legislation as it does In a change of the system ad- ministering congresslonal legisla- on. “The crux of the trouble is that the exercise of the personal discre- tion vested in the executive heads of | the government has been delegated to subordinates, who, being domi- | nated by a system of painful char- acteristics, have simply perverted the trust imposed. In other words, the whole basic administration of Indian bureau is wrong.” Mr. Rave expects to obtain audi- ence with .

Hartnett fell overboard when he at tempted to enter a small boat to row ashore. Nolse of the splashing in th water and an outery made by the young {man attracted the attention of com- panions aboard the launch, and one of them, Walter R. Birth, 515 8th street southwest, quickly went overboard and his_companion. Young Hartnett was here from Colo- nial Beach, Va., to spend the Christmas holiday season with his step-father an mother, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Garrity, at the BSth street address. He had attended a dance Saturday night, it is stated, and went to the launch with companions to spend the remainder of the night. Coroner Nevitt gave a cer- tificate of accidental death. WOMAN IS ACCUSED OF SLAYING FRIEND Rosa Richardson, Colored, Held in Death of John Capers—Says He Attacked Her. Responding to a suicide report re- ceived: from 1720 Marion court north- west shortly before 2 o'clock this morning, Sergt. Allen and Policemen Bennett and Willlams of the eighth precinct found John Capers, colored, thirty-five years old, dead. There Wwas a bullet wound in his left chest almost directly over the heart, and the weapon with which he had been killed was resting on the bed near his head. When an examination of the ‘wound failed to disclose powder marks on the undergarments Capers wore, the officers- placed Rosa Richardson, col- ored, thirty-five years old, under ar- rest. She first told a story of suicide, but Jater admitted she had shot Capers because he had attacked and beaten her with a poker, police said. She wus taken to Freedmen's Hos- pital and examined by physiclans, who reported she had sustained a number of bruises which might easily have been inflicted with a poker. The woman, held on a charge of murder, -told the police she and Capers, the latter having been drink- ing, quarreled early in the evening. The man renewed the quarrel about 2 o'olock this morning, she said. ~An inquest ‘will be held. candi- | i understood, | & | an- | NEARRIVER LAUNCH Starts Ashore for Cigsrettes—Ef— overboard and was drowned.
