V"-- J THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY;-- JANTJABY 22, 1890. & F1UUD IS OKLAHOMA Dijli Government Officials Connived at Illegal Land Entries. THE TOWS SITE FOR GDTHKIE Secured by Collusion With the United States Eegister. EYEEI ACEE OF CHOICE TEEEITOEI Etltctfd and Snrrc jrd Before Uie Date Set for the rnbtic Opening. The investigation of the entry of lands in Oklahoma has resulted in some startling disclosures. Not deputy marshals alone, but-much higher Government officials, were guilty of collusion and fraud. Karnes and particulars in each case are furnished by the inspector. Kansas City. January 21. Cornelius JIcBride, the Inspector of Public Lands, trho was ordered to Oklahoma by Secretary Noble to investigate the alleged claims to town sites, lots, and sections of land there, is an attorney of this city. Until to-day he lias refused to be interviewed on the result of his investigation, but now, inasmuch as the Senate has ordered the report printed, lie regards the seal of secrecy removed, and talks freely of the contents. When he first entered the territory and before the President's proclamation opening it to settlement took effect, he was surprised to find that the anticipated troubles between various bands of settlers and boomers was unwarranted. BASCALITY EVEBrWTIEKE. "I had not been in Guthrie long," Le continued, "before I discovered that it was not bloodshed, but rascality which the Department had to fear. Secretary Noble telegraphed to me to look carefully after the horde of Deputy United States Marshals who were reported to have gone into Oklahoma under the guise of tbeir office, and who had taken up claims. I at once telecraphed to Mr. Noble that it was not tho deputy marshals who were most to blame, but higher United States officials. "I found that John L DilUbe Land Register, and C il. Barnes, Receiver, had connived to allow their friends and relatives to come ioto the territory before they had any rteht and enter ihe choicest land. Major Pickler, who went to Oklahoma with the same authority I had remained only inside of tbo lanu office while 1 was on the outside watching the proceedings and cetting names, witnesses and transaction for our re port. The results of our observations are all jriven in my official report, which contains revelations which the public ought to know, not iihstandlng the lact that they compromise men high in official authority. COLLUSION TO DEFBAUD. "I was in the Territory sir weeks. I found that John i. Dill, the Land Register, and C. M. Barnes, the Land Receiver, had connived to allow illegal filing of claims. General Clayton and Barnes were fellow townsmen. Clayton, under the guise of a deputy United States marshal, went to Guthrie on Saturday before the pening on Monday, and on Sunday he surveyed the section of land out for the town site of Guthrie, and made a plat Mark D. Cohn was selected to enter this plat He. too, was in the Territory before he had anv right to be. and by the crace of Land Receiver Barnes a brother of Land Register Bill was also on the ground before the opening; and by the grace of bis brother's official posit. on. Dill and Conn were selected to make the first entries. They prepared themselves with powers of at torney from a number of persons, including soldiers, to enter. By the request of Register Dill and Receiver Barnes three men were ap volnted Deputy United States Marshals to guard the door of the Land Offico on the morning ot the opening. These men were personally known to Dill and Barnes. It was understood that Dill and Colin were to be allowed to enter the soil first. Dill and Cohen saton theste.of tlipl.inrl , office waiting for the bour of 12 o' .t to come so that they could enter their lanu . "P. Dyer, of thi city, wh. went into the Territory, as a Wells, Fargo Express Com pany's agent, expected to be the first man to make an entry. He, too, was at the door ready to enter, and in reality would have been the first man had it not been for the preconcerted plan to hare Dill and Cohn enter first. When the door was opened thesj three deputy marshals shoved Dyer aside and permitted Dill and Cohn to go in. A WHOLESALE EJJTEY. "When they finished entering they had filed claims for every section of land which touched the section set apart for Guthrie butone.which was held Dy a lawyer named Walton, a brother of Senator Walton, of Colorado. This filing also Included Clayton's plat of Guthrie. All these charges I make in my report and there is no question about the correctness, for I give witnesses by whom all I sav can be proven. "General Clayton. Dill and the rest knew who I was. and came to me each with his open story. Clayton told me that unless the town site plat made bv him was allowed to be entered blood would flow in the streets of Guthrie. 1 told Clayton his entries might go on file, butneither his nor other illegal entries would ever be approved by the Government, Clayton made a bluff about the acre reserved for the Land Office. He said its survey should be made to conform to his plat. I ordered a survey of that acre made by a Government official, and it was made irrespective of Mr. Clayton. "When I finished my report I recommended the removal from office of Land Register Dill Receiver Barnes and United States Marshal Jones, of Kansas. Jones is the only man who had been removed up to the present time. United States Marshal Needles, of Arkansas, has been abused on account of his relations with the opening of Oklahoma, Needles' actions were those of an honest man. .mere were many nunurea blank appoint ments of deputy marshals printed, and many of these filled out and Needle's name forged to them. He found them in large numbers. There was any quantity of fraud in opening Oklahoma, and I trust the investigation in stituted by Congress will result in showing up the guilty parties. If this is done the title of a large quantity of city property will be under a cloud, and it will be a long time before the titles are perfected." LEE'S BIRTHDAY. Zixpreatlon of Northerner on the Dead Confederate General General Scho- field and Admiral Porter Fay Hish Tribute to Ilia Cbnrncier. SPECIAL TELEGBAM TO THE DISPATCH. Bichmond, Va., January 2L An af ternoon paper here requested a number of prominent men all over the country for some sentiment appropriate to Lee's birth day, which it published to-day. General Bchofield says: "I will say that it was the well-known charac ter of the Southern soldiers, of which that of General Robert E. Lee was the highest type, which made it possible for the Union army to regard the Confederates not as rebels, to be either pnnisbed or pardoned but as worthy antagonists, worthy to be come trusted friends when they "had laid down their arms." Admiral Porter writes: "General Lee ac cepted the situation after Appomattox in the true spirit which characterized all his ac tions, and I felt sure that when he died he had the respect of every Northern soldier and sailor, to say nothing of the thousands of citizens who admired bis private char acter." Governor Campbell, of Ohio, says: "As a Northerner and a member of that wing of the Democratic part, which readily conceded anything to prevent war, yet cheerfully risked everything to preserve the Union alter the war had come, I pay my modest tribute to Robert E. Lee, the Christian gentleman, the fear less soldier, the upright citizen, the model husband, son and father." Cardinal Gibbons cays: "General Lee was a hero ot whom the whole nation is proud."

Tho Finding of Ex-Governor Not In Favor of Either Side. rErECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCII.'. Saleu, Mass., January 21. The finding of Ex-Governor Robinson, special commis sioner in the Andovercase, was made known this morning. It is not in. terms for or against either side, merely reporting what the commissioner considers facts as proved. Those are chiefly that the Rev. Dr. Eustis was not personally hostile to Prof. Smythe, that he was not subject to undue influence from the outside; that he was intelligent and conscientious and gave "heed to all the evi dence to the end that he might render a just decision. The Supreme Conrt has now to decide upon the legal right of the Board of Visit ors to dismiss the professors, and tbis will involve the question as to whether their teaching is in accordance with the creed on which the seminary rests. tjuke Your Choice 83.
