MAYSVILLE WAS A FAKE. TEX-
AS EXPERTS COMING.
I IT WAS NOT YELLOW JACK
Dr. Carr of Ardmore Makes a State-
ment after Investigation.
i Maysville I.T. Sept. 7. (Spe-
cial.) There is no truth in the re
port IngHsh's wife and child had
yellow fever. Government expert
Loving from Austin T exas arriv-
ed last night add pronounced no
sytntoms of yellow fever iu Inglish
family at present. Inglish who died
last Monday night was supposed
to have yellow fever his body will
be exhumed and examined today
by Loving one jew case was re
ported near Wallville a small town
seven miles from Maysville yester-
day a party named Baker died yes-
terday evening about six o'clock
Loving was called to diagnose this
case and rt ported it malarial fever.
With the first intimation that
there was a supposed case of fever
at Maysvile Dr. Carr of this city
took active steps to ascertain if
there was really a esse of the yellow
jack. Dr. Carr worked quietly and
after making a full investigation
he gave out a statement to the ef-
fect that there was nothing in the
rumor that Inglish had a case of
fever. His statement was based on
intorraatiou received. There has
been a good deal of criticism of the
physicians from Texas who it is
said pronounced the case yellow
fever without making an investiga-
tion of tee facts to warrant such a
statement.
In view of the rumors that have
leen going the rounds concerning
alleged cases of fever Dr. Carr is
able to say authoritatively that al-
ter a thorough investigation of the
situation there is not and has net
j leen a case of yellow fever in In
dian Territory. If the reported case

any sytntoms of the disease it was
unquestionably a sporadic case or-

and it the doctors had any doubt of
the nature cf the tney should have
made an autopsy to detimine the

LOCK HORNS
A CONFIDCT OF INTEREST
Prosition is Discussed before Council
and Special Committee
The city council met iu regular
session yesterday afternoon. After
disposing of routine business the
ordinance granting a franchise to
the new railroad the Oklahoma
Central for the use of raitoad
street was. taken up. Messrs
Sharp and Carter promoters of
the road were present to look
after their interests and C. M.
Fechheimer represented the Rock
Island company which is opposing
rhe granting of the franchise.
Messrs. Sharp and Carter present-
ee their claims asking that im-
mediate action be taken as the fin-
al closing up of their arrangement
with the financiers who have tak-
en up the road were dependent up-
! on the securing of this franchise.
Mr. Fechheimer asked that final
action be deferred til the the next
meeting as the Rock Island officials
wished to be heard.
Most of the alderman expressed
themselves as opposed to granting
a franchise for the entire street
but were willing to grant the fran
chise with certain modifications.
The promoters staled that they
were willing to agree to any rea
sonable changes. It was finally
decided to appoint a committee to
meet with them and agree upon
terms to be submitted at the coun
cil meeting at four o'clock this
afternoon.
This committee met this morn
ing. It was composed of Louth
'an Early o'Brien and Cochran
with the Mavor as chairman. A
large number of citizens were pre
sent at the meeting.
The entire proposition was dis
r
at Eagle Mercantile Com-
?
cussed by Messrs. Sharp Cartei
Fechheimer ani citizens present.
Mr. Fechheimer stated that he
was authorized tos..'y that if this
franchise was granted the Rock
Island would consider it as grave
injurp to the company and would
remove thair important interests
from Chickasha. Mr. Carter
stated that while it was a physical
possibility for his company to find
another route through the city
yet the arrangement made witli
the capitalists who are to build
this road were based up 311 the
granting of this franchise and
wothout it the road would not be
built to Chickrslia.
Among the citizens who spoke in
favor of granting a limited fran-
chise while expressiug'the great-
est friendship for the Rock Island
were T. H. Dwyer Jones Sayer
and Dr. Riddle. H. B. Johnson
thought it would be an injury to
the Rock Island.
The Rock Island people say
they are perfectly willing for the
road to enter the city but are op
posed to its using this street as it
will interfere with the future de-
velopement of their interests cut-
ting them off from the industries
that must develop on the west side
of their track.
After the matter had been dis-
cussed in open meeting for two
hours the committee went execut-
ive session. It is understood that
three out of four of the committee
agreed to grant 30 feet of the street
up to Choctaw A;e Early being
opposed to ehe proposition. The
committee adjourned to report at
the council meeting.
