Several months ago j the-whole of North Georgia, as . well as Cl'iittano'ig i, wis aroused • over what was at the turn reported to be a brutrl attempt by an un- • known man with nd hair ai d blue eyes to assault a seventeen year old i daughter of Jarnos Ileaihcock, an . imployee f the park commission . era. , Ten or fifteen men in the meas ure answering the description of , the “brute’’where arrested and I and taken before the Heathcock woman and a lynching was only , averted because they pronounced each min “not the guilty one.” Today it develops that the young woman had loved “not wisely” i and that the you.ig man in the case had skipped. When the eirl became a moth er a few days ago, Heathe.cck, the father, was much surprised, hav ing along with the public been misled by the story of the crim inal assault. He began an inves tigation and now states that there was no criminal assault, hut tha' 'life girl had been beaten into in sensibility by the mo! her on the ocoaei >n when she was found in sensible by one of the guards, and that the story of the criminal assault was conceded in order to save the girl’s reputation. I There was standing rewaid for the arrest of the “fiend,” which was withdrawn today when the facts! as stated become known.

Bft THE GHEROKEFS FULL BLOODS ARE AR ING THEMSELVES THE TREATY REJECTED I.nternal Department Apprehen sive (F /Proible. Fort Smith, A'k., Oct 23. From a gimtN'man of undoubted I int gritv, who has been in close ; communication with the full-blood I Cherokee«. it was learned to-day that they have been secret'y arm ed and h curing ammunition for several weeks. They are prepiring for forcibly i resist any attempt to abolish their tiibil government. The feeling is strongest among the poor and most ignorant. They live in tlm remote parts of the mountains They are unerring shuts and will be masters of all the moun tainous country if trouble begins. The more intelligent Indians are not so bitter, but the feeling against the tr aty is so strong that ihe Cherokee Commission carceled its meetr g with the Dawes Commission. Full b'ood Cherckees recently sent an attorner to Washington to enjoin the Dawes Commission, if possible, from making up citizen ship roll. Since bis reiurn th a work of arming has been great ly increased. AH full bloods have always owned some kind of tire arm, but the late purchases are near'y a’l repeating rill-s. The re.Tisd of th' Creek Coun cil to approve their reaty made with th) Diwes Com nis ion has great l }’ encourage i the Cherokees, and they will make a fir.ner stand against any negotiati >n with Dawes Commission: Xo danger is feare lof on im aieijiate outbreak. '1 he result of the Council's action is p.wai ed with a great deal of anxiety all over the Cheroket Nation. Full blood Ch erokees will resist with arms any attempt to abolish trbal government, DAWES TREATY REJECTED Interior Department Fears It Will Influences Other Nati n Washington, Oit. 23. —The re j ction by the Creek Legislature ye-terd«y of the Dawes Commis si >n agreement for the rAabili tatioa of the tribe is viewed with ; much concern by the Interior De partment authorities. They regard it as of great significance as affect ing other tribes with whom the c numission has to deal and coin cide that it is not unl.kely to result in failure to reach an un derstanding with any of them. S<> fir none of the agreements made by the con.mission with rep resentatives of <he tribes has been ratified, and the negotiations now on with the Cherokees are no' progressing satisfactorily, Advices reached heie several days ago that emissaries of the fullbood element of the Cluro kee Nation has gone to the Creek tribe. New it is s'ated that there is a probability that whatever ac tion is taken f r the purpose of making the nu mbers of the tiibes citizens ai d the ii.eub n’al prelim inaries wiL bine to le taken by Congress, and an interesting de bate on this question, involving the power of C"gi'i Ss to enact leg is'ation on tins line, is expected early in the coming session.
