Predicted.
Oklahoma City, Ok., May -1. Hun-
dreds of people are gathering* about
the Kickapoo reservation from towns
in Oklahoma and from Kansas and it is
almost certain that there will atftfre-
bate thousands by Thursday. In addi-
tion to these it is reported that scat-
tered along the line and in the nearby
I towns are at least 12,000 to J.''1,000 peo-
ple waiting to devour this tenderloin
of the Oklahoma territory and not over
ftAO will bo satisfied. Some predict a
most sensational run and lots of Iron
ble while others say discouragement
will prevent a great portion of the
waiters from going in at all except as
sight seers.
The report of the issuing of the pres-
ident's proclamation opening the Kick-
apoo reservation to settlement created
great excitement That portion re-
ferring to the absence of troops or
marshals was partica'arly commended
The section deelariti ; all men.Hooners
who have entered u;-on the Kickapoo
reservation since March .'I, 18U3, is con-
sidered ridiculous as nearly every
in the territory has at one time o
other been across the reservation to
attend to business in Shawnee town in
the south or Chandler on the north as
the reservation is the only highway to
those towns. Some of the men in line
.dropped out when tli -v read this,others
said they would stand their ground.
Many of the men in line are laborers
who think they see a chance to make a
few dollars by giving tip their places
to men who want to make genuine
filings.
The big run of Thursday will be
from along the south and east line of
the country where the best land lies.
The Indians have taken allotments in
the rich bottom lands along the North
Canadian river and at the apex of the
country at the south near the town of
Shawnee. There is one quarter sec-
tion, however, surrounded by Indian
allotments that has not been taken.
It abuts on the town of Shawnee and
more than a hundred people will try to
step on it first Thursday noon and the
lawyers will wax rich on the ensuing
litigation.
A (iuthrie lawyer said this morning
that there was a scheme under way to
settle a town on a quarter section in
elusion* of the Court Ulven In Brief
—All the Justices I'reseut
In Court.
Washington, May 21.—The United
States supreme court to-day declared
the income tax law unconstitutional
in toto. Chief Justice Fuller read the
decision of the majority, reading from
manuscript. Five justices were against
tlie constitutionality of the law to four
for it Those against were Chief .la
tice Fuller and Justices Field. Cray,
Brewer and Shiran. Those for the
law. Justices, Harlan, White, Brown
and Jackson.
All of the members of the court wero
present, including Justice Jackson.
As soon as the justices had taken
their seats the chief justice began the
delivery of the main opinion. After
some preliminary talk he said:
"As heretofore stated, the constitu-
tion divided federal taxation into two
great elasses—the class of direct taxes
and the class of duties, imposts and
excises—and prescribed two rules
which qualified the grant of power as
to each class. The power to lay direct
taxes apportioned among the several
states in proportion to their representa-
tion in the popular branch of congress,
a representation based on population
ascertained by the census, was plenary
anil absolute, but to lay direct taxes
without apportionment was forbidden.
The power to lay duties, imposts and
excises was subject to the qualifica-
tion that the imposition must be uni-
form throughout the United States.
"Our previous decision was confined
to the consideration of the validity of
the tax on the income from real estate,
and on the income from municipal
bonds. The question thus limited was
whether such taxation was direct or
not, in the meaning of the constitu-
tion and the court went no farther as
to the tax on the incomes from real es-
tate than to hold that it fell within
the same class as the source whence
the income was derived, that is, that a
tax upon the realty and a tax upon the
receipts therefrom were alike direct;
while as to the income from municipal
bonds, that could not be tax.- I because
of want of power to tax the source,
and no reference was made to the na-
ture of the tax as being direct or indi-
rect.

Washington, May 11'.- An error hai
been discovered in the issuance of the
proclamation for opening to settlement
the Silctz Indian reservation, which
was signed by the president Thursday.
The act of congress authori/.itig the
step provides that sixty days' notice
must be given by the proclamation.
That signed Thursday provided that
the reservation shall be opened this
month, so that it will have to be with-
drawn and the date changed. It was
generally supposed that thirty days'
notice would be given from the date of
issuing the proclamation before the
Yankton Indian reservation lands
would bo opened to settlement. The
date « f opening the lands, however,
was fixed for May 21, in order to give
settlors an opportunity to break the
lands this year and make improve-
ments which will enable them to raise
«t crop next year. It is usual to allow
thirty days' notice, but as it has been
known for several weeks that the
proclamation would be issued the in-
terior department believes that intend-
ing settlers have been given ample no-
tice of the proposed opening.

Washington, May ISecretary Car-
lisle's Memphis address has been writ-

1.001) copies printed for distribution.
It is being carefully guarded, an.l only
cabinet officials and others in whose
discretion the secretary has canfidencc
have had an opportunity to peruse it.
Mr. Carlisle has talked over the speech
with his intimate friends an I asso-
ciates, and it is understood from re-
marks that have been dropped that the
secretary will disclose that it is as ab-
surd to expect the United States alone
to restore silver to its former ratio of
10 to 1 as to expect to form a mill pond ,
with a dam which extends only one- I
third the w ay across the stream. The
major part of the addres-. it is said,
will deal with the question of banking.
Secretary Carlisle is a convert to the
theory of free banking, but believes
that it in list be approachc 1 gradually
and along sound lines.

for the issuing of a proclamation for
the opening of the Kickapoo reserva-
tion is drawing near, many persons
are beginning to arrive. A a officer
who has just returned from a trip to
the reservation states that, there are
people camped all along the line, and
if the school lands claimed by the gov-
ernor are exempted from settlement
there are now two settlers on hand for
every claim. As the reservation is
small, with towns all around it, and
all included in counties already organ-
ized. there will be no county seat or
other towns of any size, and hence no
chance to secure town lots.
