HonedlH Is under the Impression that shortly nf Uer this th'o Chickasaw legislature voted $5,000 to Senator Murton for lo cal services. These mat rs will prob ably be mado the subject of Inves tigation before the grand jury at Ard more. Superintendent llptiedlct first came In contact with Senator Burton In April, 1901. Mr. Burton was summon ed to Washington to liavo n confer ence with the Chickasaw officials bo fore the department of the Interior relative to the disposal of tho school funds coming from tho dovelopniont of segrocated coal lands In the Chicka saw Nation. The United Stntca gov ernment at that time wns seeking to get control of the schools of tho Five Civilized Tribes and had succeeded, through tho efforts of Superintendent Benedict, exeppt In tho Chlckasnw Na tion. IIiv the tribal authorities hold out- stoutly againRt allowing tho gov- ernm'ent to have any tiling to do with tho Issuance of school warrants or with the lynploymont or paying of teachers, and in the light of events connecUd with the Chickasaw war rant Investigation, fedornl ofllclals think they snc ti reason for this op position. Upon reaching Washington Super intendent Benedict sought an inter view with Oovornor Johnston of tho Chickasaw Nntlon. He was met In stead, however, bv Senator Burton, who Informed him that If he had any bus iness with the Chickasaw Nation ho must transact It with him. "Senator Burton approached mo Is n bluffing way." said Mr. Benedict, "but knowing that a senator Is entit led I" much nMM"ct in Washington.
