LAND OPENED AT NOON And a Grand Scramble Place, Takes THE RIO GARRISON SURRENDERS And in Now in the llniids of the Successful Insurgents. Arkansas City, Sept. 10. Five minutes before noon 75,000 men and women, gathered on tbo north and south boundaries of the Cherokee strip. When exactly at high noon at a signal from the commanding officers' revolvers, Uncle Sam's representatives rang out the signal for the start, pell mell, helter-skelter, hurry-scurry, the great speculative army rushed across the line and raced for home and fortune. At town sites the stronger took pos session. Tents' went up, town meet ings were held, officers elected, and in an incredibly short time full-Hedged, municipalities sprung into existence. On the prairies,, farmers raced for homesteads. Enough people made the run to fur niBb each of the 37,600 homesteads with an occupant, and give eyery town site 1,600 inhabitants. Over 125,000 certificates have been is sued, but as a large number took both homestead and townsite certificates, the number of certificates does not rep resent the number of boomers. It is estimated that twenty-five thou sand raced from Arkansas City; fifteen thousand from "Caldwell; eleven thou sand from Orlando; nine thousand from Hennessy, seven thousand from Stillwater; three thousand from Kiowa, three thousand from Huuuewell, and five to elglit thousand from other points. In all there wus nearly double the number which raced into Okla homa. The weather was all that could be desired. The greatest rush was on the eastern strip, which contains the most fertile land in ibe entire reservation. Perry, on the Santa Fe, Is a most favored townsite. When they arrived in the strip the throng found a desolate waste. Most of the hay has been cut oQ, and what remained was either I burned off by prairie fires or scorched brown by drought and sun. Creeks have run dry, and the Arkansas and Slmmeron rivers are nearly so. There will be great suffering for lack of water. The strip contains six mil lion and four thousand acres. Guthrie, Sept. 10. Information is received here that four "sooners" were fatally wounded lu6t night by soldiers. Guthrie, O. T., Sept. 15.- Fifteen thousand people were massed about the Santa Fe depot, ready to fight for a place on the first train tomorrow. The railway company will not bo able to carry over half these peeplo, and tho struggle for a place on (he train will be a terrific one. Nineteen people were prostrated with the heat today, and three died. One young man went rav ing crazy, and is looked up lu Jail hero, with no clue to bis Identity. Several large fires were started upon the strip tonight, and It Is feared many settlers will be caught In them tomorrow and burned, The Brazilian Revolution. Buenos Ayres, Sept. 16.
