Baby Week"-A Six-Day Sale OLD CHIEF LEADS FORCES LAST HOURS IN PRAYER WOMAN MOU Olds Wo Voting Harjo, Strung Vp by Depu ties, lio.oes Stoicism and Gives Out Information of Movements of AVa rriors and Their Names. OKLAHOMA CITY. March 28. A dra matic feature of the day, preceding the final clash between the Indians and troops near Henryetta, was the confes sion of young Chittl Harjo. son of Crazy Snake. After his capture by deputies, he cursed his foes vehemently and refused to tell anything about his father's whereabouts. "Maybe this will help him," exclaimed Tlanntv Qhaplfr T.'.-.. . I 1 , : . . uiitini i ci 11 n. juuro, Lumping out a heavy rope. "Tie !t around his neck and string him up." - Confesses to Save His Life. His assistants obeyed, and soon the young Indian was dangling in the air, kicking frantically and clawing at his rope-encorded neck. It was a struggle between Indian stoicism and the desire to live. The deputies stood grimly by without a sign of relenting. "Tell us where your father is or you'll hang there till you die," they called to him. "No fooling about this." The Indian's breath was coming In short gasps. Still he struggled hard against the disgrace of yielding to the palefaces' demand. But at last he whis pered despairingly: "det me down and I will tell you all you want to know." When the noose was loosened he gave a complete list of the names of the In diana who participated in the fight of the previous night and "confessed that his father, instead of being in Washing ton, was at the head of the outlaw bands scattered among the hills of the former Creek Nation. Outlaw Kills Sheriffs. "Those were your father's tracks in the yard this morning?" asked Deputy Jones. "Those were his tracks," said the In dian. The chief's son then told hlB captors that Charles Cooker, represented as a dangerous Indian outlaw, had fired the shots which killed Baum and Odom. Hie confession also revealed for the first time some of the real Becrets of general ship over the Creeks. He admitted that his father, whose virtues have been lauded, was actually In command of the Indians In the field. "My father is with the Indians," he said. "He was with them in the house lajit night and left the house with them after the battle. It was Charles Cocker, the Seminole, and I. who shadowed the officers as they approached our home yesterday morning. Cocker crossed their path before they reached the house, and as the officers followed, he turned and fired. He Is an expert shot and : was fully 900 yards distant when he shot the officers. He Is scouting now with the band and will be hard to catch." One Desperate Band. The members of the band in Harjo's house last night, the young Indian con fessed, belonged to the "Light Horse Guards." They stay together under all conditions. His admissions sent the posee hurrying on the trail of the old Indian. They hope to capture him quickly and thus ward off the impending battle. Harjo's footprints were easily recog nizable and gave those on his trail a good chance to track him down. Toung Harjo Is a stalwart, intelligent appearing youth. He has played football with some of the E&stern schools. He is a college graduate, but retains the in stincts of his native blood. He stood with marked coolness as the new rope was placed about his neck, a look of do termination in his eye. Soon his abo rigine spirit, however, had been broken. With the important facts dragged from Crasy Snake's son. the officers declared they could end the uprising In mur;h quicker time than otherwise. With Crazy Snake's whereabouts almost definitely es tablished, they set vigorously about to prepare, with the aid of the militia, to crush the Indians. s .v.v.-v..v.v.v.vx.:.:i; Lady Violet Brassey.

One posse captured the 22-year-old son of Crazy Snake today and compelled him to give the names of all the Indians who were in his father's house last night when Marshal Edward Baum and Deputy Sheriff Herman Odom were killed. Second Fight at 0 o'clock. A dispatch from Stidman says that a second engagement between officers and Indians occurred near there at 9 o'clock this morning at which several Indians were wounded. Both the Indians and the negroes, many of the latter being allied with the Creeks, took their wounded into the hills and this made it Impossible to learn definitely what the casualties were The number of dead since Thursday was placed unofficially tonight at six. Deputies moved on the house of Crazy Snake today with the object of attacking It. They found it deserted but removed the bodies of Baum and Odom, who had been killed last night. The bodies were taken to Eufaula. There was evidence that Crazy Snake and the members of his family had left hurriedly in the night.

Battle Is Inevitable. Five companies of Oklahoma miima marched tonight against Crazy Snake's band of Creek Indians, half-breeds and negroes, entrenched in the Hickory Hills seven miles from Henryetta. A battle was regarded as Inevitable, as the heavily armed troops were sent out either to capture or exterminate the murderous band which since Thursday has caused the 'death of ix men, the wounding of many others and brought about a condition of terror in Henryetta, Pierce and all the surrounding country. Troops left Henryetta at 8 o'clock. They had seven miles to go. Encumbered with arms and equipment, it was not ex pected they could reach the scene ready for battle before 7 o'clock. Crazy Snake's men numbered about 200, all armed with modem rifles and plentifully supplied with ammunition. They had been prepar ing for two months for this, their final stand against lawful authority. They de- naniiy sent out word today that they would fight to the death. Crazy Snake's band, intrenched itself strongly early in the day and was rein forced from time to time by roaming companies oi Indians. Crazy Snake was in personal command. The wily old red skin apparently realized he was In a tight place, and prepared to make a des perate stand. This, the first, real Indian rising In years, was planned two months ago. It broke out last Thursday. when some Deputy Sheriffs went to Henryetta to arrest negro cattle -thieves. They were fired upon by negroes and halfbreed friends of the criminals and forced to beat a hasty retreat. A few hours later they returned with additional forces and were nrea upon Dy tne band, then aug mented by a number of Crazy Snake's Indians. In this fight three were killed and five wounded, according to the of ficial reports, although It is believed that many more Indians were wounded, as scores of shots were fired at close quar ters, t nis ciasn resulted in 41 arrests. Smaller Bands Scatter. Meanwhile Crazy Snake's followers de termined upon an aggressive campaign. The chief's plans had to be sprung pre maturely on account oi tne unexpected laid by the deputies on Henryetta. Crazy Snake, forced to the wall, determined to strike a hard blow In an effort to esra.no Part of his band was run to cover last mgnt oy deputies in a search for the leaders in Thursday's fight. Marshal eaurn, or t-necotan. and Deputy Odnm of Eufala, paid their lives as the price. They were shot down, according to Crazy Snake's son. by Charles Cocker, a Semi nole Indian. This aroused the state au thorities and Governor Haskell ordered out the militia. Not till the soldiers arrived this after noon was the people's apprehension re lieved. Then the Indian bands scurried away to avoid a clash with the militia preferring to cast their lot with the larger band Intrenched under rn I Snake's command on the Hickory HiUs.

Matthews In a sermon preached here this morning has lined up many of the most prominent ministers of the city against htm in an array that threatens to cause the sensation of the hour In church circles. Dr. Matthews in plain language ad vocated the re-establishment of the re stricted district In Seattle, and through out his sermon he was applauded vo ciferously. Mayor Miller was present throughout the sermon. "We theorists, well-meaning and moral people, advocated the abolition of the district," he said, "but what was accomplished? The fiends from hell were scattered all over the city, into our ' boarding-houses, residence districts, private hotels and rooming houses. I would have a restricted dis trict and- would force all disorderly women to that district. I would force the married flirt, who is the' worst prostitute on earth, no matter how high the standing of her husband, to live in that same district. I would confine in the penitentiary every mar ried man found there." Many ministers Interviewed here to day are aroused over the statement of Dr. Matthews. Rev. W. H. Reece. of the First Meth odist Church, said: "If Dr. Matthews is ' anxious for a restricted district It ought to be placed In his own back yard. Maybe he would look at a restricted district In a dif ierent ugnt." CANNON LEAVES, BIG DEBT Seattle Contractor, Owing $40,000, Can't Be Iiocated. SEATTLE, Wash., March 28. (Special.) J. L.
