11 may be tha' more than two

Chattanooga, Tenn,.Oct. 23.
■ A eensaii n that has set the peo
. phi of that section ngog with ex
citement developed at Ghic iinauga
, park tod iy. 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withdrawn today when the facts!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.

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.
