Plaus of the Indian Lobby.
Washington, Feb. 10—The dele-
gates representing the Indian nations
of the Indian territory held a con-
ference yesterday which was attended
by ex-Judge Stuart, of South Mc-
Alester, one of ' their supporters in
congressional fight involving that
country. The conference was held
for the purpose of sizing up the situ,
at ion generally and with a view to
determining what is best to be done
to meet apparent conditions iu con-
gress. Judge Stuart explained the
situation as he understands it, as did
others present. Tt is ui clerstood
tout it was agreed to circulate the
misinformation that the ptesident
would not veto any bill covering that
country, no matter how drastric it
might be. It was agreeel to explain
in this connection that the president
might not sign a bill of a violent na-
ture, but while he would not sign it,
he would allow it to become a law
without his approval; all this by way
of inducing members of the senate
and bouse dommittees tc inject some
radical features into the Dawes com-
mission bill that would insure the
veto of the president and the final
triumph of the Indians and their em-
ployed lobby.
Immediately after tbe conference
ended, the Indians and the lobby
proceeded to act on this line aud pre-
tend to view with alarm. It is not
believed, however, that the scheme
agreed upon will work out satisfac-
torily, for the impression prevails
that those really iu earnest and hon-
est in their efforts to securo legisla-
tion will be able to understand the
trick. The claim is made, however,
that the Indians have employed cer-
tain senators and memi ^rs to aid
them in working the scheme. They
expect, by this means, to succeed in
having enough injected into the bill
to defeat it and thus defeat all. In
this way it is observed also that sen-
ators and members in their employ
can act under cover and while they
are pretending to be violently opposed
to the Indians, can in fact be work-
ing under pay and to their advantage.
This matter was fully discussed and
co.ir, red in the conference yester-
day.
The delegates from the Indian Ter-
ritory sent here to work for legis-
lation are receiving many letters and
local papers denouncing the whites In
that country who ate workli,g under
pay of the Indians. Notice is s!«o
made of the Texas Judicial and con-
gressional gang that has been looting
that country for s< me years. It Is
very plain that those who have en-
listed in the cause of the Indians do
not contemplate securing political
honors from the people of that coun-
try when the people are vesied with
tbe right of franchise. Where that
happens, it is believed the 'Iexas gang
will be driven out of the country and
forced to feed on their own grazing.
