M.

Wiaen acked what the name of his friend was, be refused to amswer, Judge Davis told him that he would be compelled t) commit him for con tempt of court, aud ordered an officer to take himin custody. Hart then eaid that he was willing to produse the leber, but wanted a guarantes that it would bs returned to him. Judge Davis gave the guarantee, and gave Hart three hours to procure thy Retter, and if produc.d to the court within that time, would purge him from contempt. Hurt then left the room in company with his counsel. A recess was then taken till after- noon. At 2:30 the court room was dense- Iy crowded. Hart arrived procisely on $he minute, and was called to the etand and brought forth the letter in <question without the envelope. When asked for the envelope he ssid thathe did mot briog it as ho was not di- rected to do eo. The attorneys for the prosecution stated that it was ac cording to the letter of the subpeaa that the cuvelope be produced, snd that it was 1mportant to the defense that it remain lost.

Special Dispatch to The e New York, October 20—1 &, m.— Six of the United States bonds which were found in the possession of Doyle when he was arrested in Chi- cago last Wednesday, wero yestorday crtically examined by expert engravs ers in the office of Secret Service Officer Drummond, and they are pro- noanced accomplished forgeries. Tressary ofticials in Washington. who inepseted the fraudulent bonds, could only be positive of thair character by a detection of the duplicate, and the poorly executed imuation of the in itials of the receiving clerksin the trousury department. When the bonds'were foreod in 1868 they wero detected,and Brockwsy was convict- ed of uttering them. Tre govern- ment offorod a reward of §25,000 to ang one who would secure the piats upon which they were printed and turn it into the trewury. William Wood was then chief of the secret service buroau, aud he procured a pla'e which was said to be the one wanted, and sent it to Washington, Ten thousand dollars of the reward promised was givenhm, and the government coneequently rofused to pay the remainder on the ground that the plate Wood represented was only a copy of the one on which the forgeries were produced. In treasury circlon the impression_prevailed that the plate wanted is still in the hands of counterfeiters, and the question is raised whether it was that used in the present forgery. Mr. Drummond dis- credits the theory, aud thiuks that the new counterfeit _was printed upon a plate ongraved for that particular work. Tcreleear’s Lret Rocucet.

A land that is as Beautiful as an Artist’s Dream, But is the Worst Place this Side of the Infernal Regions. “‘On to Oklshoma,” has bean for & year pest, the rallging cry of several lawless free-booters and adventurers, by which they have assembled compa- nies of would-be intruders into the ndian territory, the members being mostly deawn from Kansas and Ar- kansas with a fow from other states. Our reports of Sunday gave the ac- count of the reoent arrest of another lot of theso intruders who were pros- pecting in the tertitory, preparatory to laying claims,'and of their expulsion from the Indian nation. 1In the light of these eventsa few facts obtained by .y from Mr. Charles Brown, an intelligent half breed citizen of the Cherokee nation, who passod through the city en route to Lozan, Utah, ciwnnot but be of in- ““Our country, as a whole,” sald Mr. Brown to our reporter, “‘compares fa- vorably in_the matter of natural re- ith any other region of sim- extout on the continent, and were plan_contemplated by Senator t'in his_bill before the last con- aress, for a division of the territory, carried out, it would open up to set hundreds of thousands of o 1ho finest grizing, d timber land on the continent, and develop a vast amount of mincral wealih, whose existence is cither not known at all, or else only to the Indiaus. That there are copper, coal, both bituminous and an- thracite, plumbago, lead, silver and 20ld to be found in the territory in paying quantities is a fast, concerning which there is no opportunity for dis- pute. Men have* gained a residence y marrying into the tribes, whose solo purpose was to securc a location inorder that, when tho territory is opencd up, they can avail themselves of their knowledze of the wherea- bouts of the rich mineral deposits. So confident are they of the value of the lodes within their knowledge that they are willing to wait almost any nuniber of years for this consumma- tion. The natives arc well aware of the existence of this mineral wealth, but they carefully guard it as a most profound secret.” What poriion of the territory is actually open to seitlement!” asked the reporter. “Thers is no pretense among any reasonable men to a ri to oceupy any portion of our lands except the strip of territory known as Oklahoma, which conprises s section about 300 mileinlength fromnorthjtosouthsndsn average width from east to west of 200 miles, including all of the Cherokee ¢ untry west of the 96:h meridian, of the Creeks west of the 97th and of the others weat of the 98th, obtained by the government by treaty in 1866. The entire acreage of the lands thus obrained from the tribes, not including that which was gotten from the Che- rokees, is something over fourteen million and they embrace a vast variety of soil and climate, and have within their area the capability to pro- ducsalmost every class of grain and fruit which is grown in the siates between the gulf and the St. Lawrence river. The southern portion is rich in fertile bottom lands and sloping plaivs, while from the Wichita Mountains there flows an innumer- able number of streams, which, being never dry, afford an inexhaustible eupply of water at all seasons of the year, even during periods of the greatest drought. North of this range of mountains, and up to the Kansas line, thers is an almost un- broken plsin, which is traversed by some of the finest rivers on the continent. Ou the majority of these streams are timbered bluffs, and be- tween these rivers there are expanses which are prairie-like in their smooth- ness, and general appeagance. As a rule, the timber on the bluffa isof a very valuable kind, and were the country ssttled, thess accumulations would afford mines of wealth.” “With the exception of a strip in the cld Creek reservation the soil of this Oklahoma region is of a very high character. Cotton and tobacco can be grown to creat advantage in its sonth- ern portion; and all the other cereals and fruits poculiar to the states can be grown in the section north of the Cim- arron vp to the Kansas lie. There is one exception to the inviting fea- tures of this section; and thisis found in the region about the mouth of the Cimarron, where the country becomes hilly, sandy and covered with scrub oaka and other dwarf growths of tim- ber. It is a region practically closed to the world, there being no roads, | only blind trails which can be utilized by horsemen or footmen who sre thoronghly familisr with Palscs Hotel. Gen.
