BIXBY TO FACE
SERIOUS CHARGE
Minnesota Politician Galled to
Washington to Attend
I Inquiry.
By W. W. Jermane, Colorado Building,
Washington, D. C.
Washington, Dec. 22.Tams' Bixby,
chairman of the Dawes commission,
was at the interior department rtealy
this morning to answer any guestions
which might be put to him about ad
ministration of affairs in the Indian
Territory, but up to noon no hearing
had been held. Discussing the charges
made by M. L. Mott, Mr. Bixby said to
The Journal's correspondent:
"Charges are made against me by
Mott because I reported to the depart
ment that he was not attending to his
duties as attorney for the Creek In
diana. They are not based on evidence,
but are merely statements that 'it is
understood and common talk that I
control the Canadian Valley Trust com-
pany,' and that I have shown favorit
ism in giving out information about
recording deeds.'
In the secretary of the interior's of
fice it is said that Bixby was called
here at this time in order that he
might face Mott and that all charges
might be discussed before t^he secre
tary. Bixby was sent for this pur
pose alono, and there is nothing else
against him before the secretary at this
time.
Washington, Dec. 22. Serious
Charges against officials in the Indian
territory have brought the latter to
(Washington under orders from Secre
tary of the Interior Hitchcock. The
person most deeply involved is Com
missioner Tams Bixby, a Minnesota pol
itician.
The charges were filed at the interior
'department by M. L. Mott, attorney for
the Creeks, against Commissioner Bixby
and other officials in the Indian Ter
ritory, and they will be subieoted to a
rigid investigation. President Boose
veit already has the charges under
Consideration.
Commissioner Bixby arrived in Wash
ington yesterday. He admitted that he
had been summoned here by Secretary
'Hitchcock and declared, in the first
statement he has made in relation to his
connection with the charges, that he
could satisfactorily explain all of his
official acts. He is accompanied by
Arthur Millette, United States district
attorney, and leo Bennett, United
States marshal for the western district
t* the Indian Territory.
Stock in Land Company.
**T have not seen a copy of the
Charges, but I have been informed of
Ifcheir substance,*' said Bixby. "The
Seve,
ost serious allegations of Mqtt, I be
relate to my alleged connection
iwith the Canadian Valley Trust com
pany of Muskogee. It is alleged that I
control the company and furnish it
[with valuable information regarding In
dian allotments. As a matter of fact.
I have never owned but $500 worth of
stock. Charles J. Bonaparte, after an
investigation a few years ago, recom
mended that an order be issued by the
secretary of the interior preventing any
government official in the Indian Ter
ritory from holding stock in a land or
trust company.
"Under directions from Secretary
Hitchcock at that time, I sold my stock
in the Canadian Trust company. I have
never had the slightest connection with
the company since. I am also charged
with furnishing lawyers with advance
information regarding oil allotments.
This- charge is based upon talk from
people who have a grievance against
me."
Mott Will Investigate.
Mott said today he would return im
mediately to the Indian Territory and
obtain further facts in support of
his charges. Officials of the interior
department admit that these charges
are very serious and they indicate a
bad state of affairs in the Territory.
I has been hinted that the alleged
Irregularities reach even to Washing
ton.
.Senators Clapp and Nelson of Min
nesota yseterday had an interview
about the charges against Bixby. It is
understood that the Minnesota delega
tion is supporting Bixby in the investi
gation.

ROMANCE BEHIND
DE RAYLAN CASE
Mad Infatuation for Russian No
bleman May Be One of the
Affair's Secrets.
Special to The Journal.
Chicago, Dec. 22.A secret love
story which caused her to flee her na
tive country, a mad infatuation for a
Bussian nobleman, may be behind the
mystery revealed by the death at
Phoenix, Ariz., of Nicholai de Raylan,
who has by a coroner's jury been de
clared to have been a woman.
The full story behind the masculine
disguise assumed by the Eussian con
sulate clerk will probably be related
in the probate court.
In the last will made by De Eaylan
reference is made to a 13-year-old boy
living at the home of "Mrs." Anna
eta Baylan, 592 California avenue, Chi
cago, as "My beloved son." Baron
Schlippenbach, Russian consul to Chi
cago, is remembered in the will,,which
contains eleven provisions, the last of
which, relating to the Russian consul,
is as follows:
"Of all money found in the safe of
Baron Schlippenbach, belonging to me
at the time of my death, the same
being in several envelopes and boxes,
give and bequeath one-half to Baron
Schlippenbach for his own personal
use, and the other half I give and be
queath to my beloved wife for her own
use.'
In the will De Baylan rplanned to
carry the secret of sex to the grave,
the ninth provision being as follows:
It is my wish that my beloved
wife, Anna de Raylan, shall wash and
tfresa my body after death and that
my beloved son, Harry George, shall
comb my hair. And it is my wish that
1 be buried in my uniform of the
Chicago Hussars."
Between sobs the woman who posed
as De Raylan's wife is reported to
have declared:
"Whether Nicolai de Raylan was a
man or a woman, I love him."

Special to The Journal.
JOHN D. DISCUSSES
MR.WEYERHAEDSER
His Fortune OverestimatedOil
Man Says Courts Must Be
Respected.
Journal Special Service.
New York, Dec. 22."It will be a
sorry day for the country and for all
of us when our courts are not respected
or when wo cannot respect them and
when our laws are not upheld. What
else can I do but go to court when
summoned?"
John D. Rockefeller changed from
his most interesting golfing mood to
profound seriousness as he made this
answer to a reporter on a Jersey City
ferryboat.
As usuld, Mr. Rockefeller asked to
be excused from discussing business,
but with unusual fieedom he talked of
the responsibilities of wealth, the
prodigality of the American people and
the majesty of the law and for the first
time mentioned his new rival as an
alleged "billionaire," the head of the
lumber trust.
"Do you believe you are a poor man
beside Frederick weyerhaueser, the
lumberman who has been written up
as 'richer than Rockefeller?'
This question amused the oil king
much.
I think, as in other cases, his for
tune has been greatly overestimated,''
Mr. Rockefeller replied. I do noV
know Mr. Weyerhaeuser personally,
but my people have had business deal
ings with him. He has always been
spoken of as a man of high honor and
integrity.''
"But if Mr. Weyerhaeuser gathered
a billion dollars' worth of the ^natural
resources of the country at a time when
it was not known how vital they would
be to the welfare of the whole people,
do you believe his fortune a men-
ace?"
I am not prepared to discuss the
ethics of large fortunes," Mr. Rocke
feller replied, "butf this much I can
tell you. Great wealth is a great bur
den, a great responsibility. I invari
ably proves to be one of two things
either a great blessing or a great curse.
We are only stewards.
"The American people are prodigal
and our extravagance will have to be
paid for by someone. We cannot buv
toys always. Our present pace is one
that cannot be kept up."
I is known that among Mr. Rocke
feller's Christmas disbursements was
$/00,000 to the board of foreign mis
sions of the United Presbyterian
church for the erection pf collegiate
buildings in Egypt and the Egyptian
Soudan. Mr. Rockefeller's charitable
bureau in the Standard Oil building
was instructed to give a "Teddy
bear" or some 'other present to each
child in the model tenement house in
West Forty-second street.
LONG DEADLOCK BROKEN
New York Will Get $20,000,000 Rail

000,000 improvement which is to unite
the Pennsylvania and the New Haven
railroads/ by a belt line around Brook
lyn and Long Island City, will go ahead

Says that Hostile Article Was
Inspired by His Colleague
Charges Denied.
Yankton, S. D., Ded. 22.Senator
Robert J. Gamble, upon his arrival
home for the holiday vacation, dis
cussed* briefly the story recently pub
lished broadcast in the east, charging
him with keeping Ms son on the gov
ernment pay rolls while the young
mart is attending Princeton college, and
with being an attorney of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad. He
denied the charges in their entirety.
He believes that a damaging article,
which eastern newspapers refused to
publish, and which afterward was
published by a Sioux Falls newspaper,
was written by the private secretary
of Senator Kittredge. He declares that
Senator Kittredge's effort to prevent
confirmation of J. D. Elliott's appoint
ment as United States district attor
ney, will fail.
Senator Gamble was met in Sioux
City by W. C. Cook of Plankinton,
chairman of the state republican com
mittee, and they discussed the recent
attempt to make trouble in the insurg
ent forces, and both are agreed that
the movement is inspired by the stal
warts.
Senator Gamble says 1,000,000 acres
of land in Tripp county will be opened
for settlement next -summer, but the
date and places of registration have
not been designated. In order to facili
tate the opening Senator Gamble has
framed a bill making a preliminary
treaty with the Indians. It provides
for the appraisement of the lands and
their sale, to the settlers at the ap
praised value. The government is to
act as .trustee.
