INDIANS ARE SORE

OBJECT TO RESTRICTION OX

New Ruling Doles Rent Money Out to
Indian Because or His Sendtlirift
Habits Red Men Send Protest to
Washington.
The Indians on the Umatilla res
ervation are once more very much
dissatisfied with a ruling of the Indian
department relative to the payment
of rent money. Councils are being
held, attorneys are being consulted
and an effort Is to be made to get a
revokal or modification of the order.
A few days ago an order was Issued
directing Agent Swartzlander to pay
out the rent money at a rate of not
more than $25 per week .instead of all
at once as In the past. It will be re
membered that all the money for rent
of Indian lands Is paid to the agent
by the white renters and In turn Is
disbursed by him among the Indians
to whom It Is due. Some of the al
lottees are classed as Incompetents or
drunkards and their money Is doled
out to them, but the great majority
of 'the Indians have been given the
entire sums due them.
Many different plans have- been
tried to keep the Reds from spending
all their money as fast as they get It.
but all have proved failures thus far
and the recent ruling Is but another
experiment of the department. When
It was found that they could not keep
their money when paid to them In
cash they were given their money In
checks, which could not be cashed
but which must be deposited In the
hanks and drawn out as needed. The
wily red man soon found a way to get
around this difficulty, for the mer
chants, for the most part, were more
than willing to accommodate their
Indian customers by giving them the
difference in change between the
amount of their purchase and the
amount of a good sized check. The
dates of payment being few and far
between, the result was that the In
dians lived on the starvation plan for
a great part of the year.
The department hopes by limiting
the amount which they are to receive
to $25 per week that they will be
compelled to spend this all for ne
cessities and not for useless finery or
the debauching "firewater."
A large number of the head men
among the three tribes on the reserva
tion were In Pendleton yesterday and
dictated a letter of protest which has
been mailed to the Indian depart
ment at Washington. It Is probable
also that the matter will be taken up
with the Oregon delegation In con
gress. .IOIIX TORT WILL EIGHT

Blow to Local Fighter Which Re

Hit Floor MeOiriny Dies After
Several Hours Mnran and Others
Hi Jail.
San Francisco, Cal., April 30. Af
ter lingering In unconsciousness from
the time he was knocked out in the
sixteenth round last night by Owen
Moran, Tommy McCarthy died short
ly after three this morning of a frac
tured skull. McCarthy was knocked
down by a heavy right to the Jaw,
his head striking with great force
on the floor. Efforts of his seconds
to revive the fighter were futile and
McCarthy was removed to the hospit
al, where he died.
Moran and others interested In the
fight have been arrested and are now
In Jail.
Dreamland was Jammed to its ca
pacity and many thousands of dollars
were wagered on the result of the
fight. McCarthy, as the result of his
clean and honest battles during the
Inst few years, was a great favorite
with the local fight followers, and all
through the contest he was urged on
by those who were with him In spirit
and who had risked their money on
li s chances.
In the 1 Silt round McCarthy drop
ped the Britisher with a right siriash
to the chin and during the remainder
of the round Moran stalled until his
head had cleared. Prior to that the
contest was In Moran's favor, with
both contestants bleeding slightly
from mouth and nose.
t A Terrible Blow.
The crisis came immediately fol
lowing the opening of the 16th round.
McCarthy came out of his corner
with mouth wide open prepared to
meet the rush of the on-coming Eng
lishman. Moran's right shot out with
the force of a. catapult, catching the
unlucky Irishman full tilt on the chin.
McCarthy dropped to the floor, his
bead striking with a thud that was
heard nil over the vast pavilion. A
hush fell over the crowd which al
ready realized that the youth was
badly hurt. Despite efforts on the
l"irt of McCarthy's seconds, included
among whom were the fighter's fath
er and two brothers, failed to revive
him anil doctors Immediately were
summoned. Twenty-five -minutes of
ceaseless work produced no benefic'al
results, and the injured pugilist was
tn ken with all speed to St. Mary's
hospital. The spectators silently left
the auditorium, talking In whispers as
they seemed to realize that death was
in their midst.
McCarthy's father and the latter's
sons, Willie, and Johnny, worked like
trojans in an endeavor to restore the
fighter to consciousness. The elder
McCarthy raved over tho condition
of his son and nothing coherent could
be obtained from him.
Owen Moran was crestfallen over
the outcome of the fight, and there
was no mistaking his grief.
"It was a shame for them to let
an untried youth like McCarthy fight
me," he muttered. "I feel that I
could have put him out any time dur
ing tho encounter, but seeing that I
was master of tho situation, I made
no determined effort to finish him
until after the 15th round. I saw my
chance when he rushed toward me
when the 16th round opened and let
fly with a full right swing. He drop
ped like a log. but must have hurt
himself when the back of his head
struck the floor. I had no Idea that
there was so much force behind the
blow that knocked him down."
McCarthy has been known to San
Francisco fight followers several
years, although tonight's fight was but
the second of his professional match
es. May Stop Jeff-Johnson Scrap.
Opposition to the Jeffries Johnson
fight Is crystallzlng today following
the news of the death of McCarthy.
Telegrams are being sent to the gov
ernor, calling on him to use his offi
cial power to prevent the fight if Dis
trict Attorney Donehuo refuses to
act. A proclamation Is being pre
pared by a church federation calling
on the people to Join in driving the
fighting game from the state forever.

Vancouver, Wash. Speakers in the

of the frogs. The city council, which
has taken the matter into considera

removing the nuisance.

RIVAL DESCHUTES
HILL AND HARRIMAX
LINES CEASE STRIFE
Two Companies Form Agreement
Whereby One Line Will Do Double
Duty Up Deschutes Canyon Lines
Will Branch at Mouth of Canyon.
Portland, April 30. Hill and Harri
man interests will enter central Ore
gon over one line of rails through
the Deschutes canyon. The strife Is
past. John F. Stevens, representing
Mr. Hill's interests, and Judge Lovett,
head of the Harrlman lines, met In
Chicago recently and decided to ab
andon contention and construct one
line through the rugged gorge, to be
used Jointly by the two roads.
This is the word that comes to
Portland from the authoritative
source. It Is backed up by the fact
that the Harrlman construction forc
es along the Deschutes canyon are be
ing reduced and work is not being
pushed as energetically as before by
the Harrlman people.
According to the plans which are to
be worked out the Hill and Harrlman
magnates have entered into an agree
ment by which one line is to do double
duty through the Deschutes canyon.
This line is to be constructed and
maintained in part by both companies.
It is said that the line Is not to be
a Jointly owned line in the full sense
of the word. Part of the way trains
will run over Harrlman rails, part of
the way over Hill steel. At the con
tested points of the long gorge, where
the right of way titles are still In the
courts undecided, the company which
has possession will finish it construc
tion. Join to the one Joint line, and
thus through common consent har
moniously complete the road through
the canyon.
Beyond the mouth of the canyon,
however, when the open country is
reached, the truce will end, and each
line will branch off along Its own right
of way in whatever direction it has
been decided to build the road.

passage of the bill by a safe majority.
Of the total membership of 92,
there were 28 senators who did not
