CUE SCHOOL
STORIES IE DENIED
Acting Supervisor of Indian Insti
tution Says no Truth in
Washington Dispatches
Special to The Telegraph
Carlisle, Pa., May 1. —In a state
ment given out here to-day, O. H.
Lipps, acting supervisor at the Carlisle
Indian School, denied the statements
attributed to hiin in dispatches cman<
atlng from Washington in which it
was asserted that he had preferred
charges against Charles G. Matthews,
a cook at the school, and had cen
sored the "demoralization" said to
exist because the suspended officials of
the institution remained unpunished.
While he stated that the cook had
been suspended for a minor violation
of discipline, it was not true that it
was for buying a student at the school
liquor. In making the charges of lax
discipline, he continued, he had not
thrown uny censure on Mr. Fried
man or any other official of the school.
Efforts are being made, according to
the supervisor, to stamp out some of
the conditions for which the school
has been censured and last week four
boys were expelled on the recom
mendation of the student assembly
for violations of discipline. The deci
sion in the case of M. Friedman, sus
pended superintendent; M. Stauffer,
former bandmaster, and S. J. Norl,
chief clerk, is anxiously awaited.
