(From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINOTON, Jan. 16. (Special Tele, fcfr'am.) Indian Commissioner Jonec today appeared before the senate committee on Indian affairs In regard to tho policy ot his bureau In reference to the leaning of graz ing lands In South Dakota. Commleiloner Jones Justified his policy on tho ground that It would bring an Income to the In dians from lands which would othcrwlso He Unoccupied. No action was taken on tho resolution authorizing nn Investigation ot ae matter. No action has been announced by Secre tary Hitchcock concerning the case of Major Harding, former Indian agont at Yankton, S. D. Senators Gamble and Kltt rMge recently had a conference with the ecrotnry and have been advised that a de cision In the case will soon be reached. "The report that the South Dakota dele gation Is opposed to the system of teasing the Indian reservation lands In that state Is Incorrect, so far, as I am concerned," said Senator Klttredge tonight. "On the con trary, I think It Is tho best plan yet pro posed of securing nn Income from tho reservations for tho, Indians. Detail' ot the Plan. "On the 10th Instant," he continued, "bids for leasing 1,200,000 acres In the Standlnr Roek reservation were opened, and con tracts have been awarded to Lemon' Uros. & Walker for fivo years at SOW mills per acre a year. It Is stipulated that th6 lands must be fenced and 259 miles of three-wire fences aro to be erected at a total ccst of about 125,000. At the expiration of the lease this fonco Is to become tbo property of the Indians, ttjr further stipulated that thero shall- be not mora than 'one animal pastured on each forty' acres; or 30,000 head on the entire traetl "The Cheyenno reservation contains about 1,400,000 acres ot lands, which Is to be divided Into four tracts and leased on practically the. tamo terms. lllds for this agency will- be 'opened on tbo 21st Instant. The objection' Is raised In some quarters to these leases, becauso It Is claimed that only the great, companies can hope to securo such large tracts. ' But it should bo re membered that -the question of water for stock Is sh Important ono and to divide the reservation In small tracts would prove Impracticable, Thero are todav on tho South Dakota reservations probably 60,000 cattle and' horses grazing which are owned by squaw. men and Individual Indians who pay nothing whatever tor the privileges which they enjoy. ThU Method Not HatUfactorr. "To Iohbo the lands at a rental based' only upon the number of cattle pastured would not be satisfactory. That plan never has been. It seems, to me that the method proposed Is equitable and Just, and that precautions In the way ot limiting the num ber of cittlb grazed have been taken to stlch an 'extent as to prevent damage to the lands and secure for tho Indians an In- o'omo of about $80,000 per annum, which thoy would not otherwise have." 4 (Senate.

The senato todav for n brief time had under consideration the bill creating n Department of Com merce, and the discussion tended to show that the measure will have to be amended In many particulars beforo It can receive the approval of tho senntc. Serious objec tions wero raised to tho transfer to tho proposed department of several Important bureaus now n part of other departments of the government. It was pointed out that If tho bill, as reported, became a law, It would crcato tho greatest department of the government, and that tho secretary of comracrco would havo moro power even than tho secretary of tho treasury. Notlco of several important amendments was given. A largo number ot uncontested bills and private pension measures was passed, after which tjhe senate adjourned until Monday. Hour llecnll Itenolulloii. Ori motion of Mr. Hoar, his resolution, adopted yesterday, calling for Information concerning tho exaction of duties on sup plies nnd comforts sent to Doer prlsonors In Ucrmuda from this country, was re called and referred to the commltteo on foreign relations. Mr. Hoar explained that the artlclo of The Hague convention on which tho resolution had been based had been adopted by Great Ilritaln, but had not been adopted by tho United States. He had been Informed slnco tho adoption of tho resolution that tho governor of Bermuda proposed to recommend to tho legislature ot Barmuda that tho law exacting such duties bo repealed. Mr. Hoar said tho exaction ot such duties was not n viola tion of treaty obligations, but bo thought It ,was a matter which ought to bo lm vcstlgated. Tho senato concurred In tho resolution providing for McKlulcy memorlnl exercises by congress In tho hall ot tho houao of representatives on Thursday, "February 27. lirrorn of the Pre. Mr. Mallory of Florida, rising to a ques tion ot privilege, callod attention to an artlclo In a New York newspaper ot tho 14th Inst., purporting to glvo a poll of tho senate on the subject of an Isthmian canal, In the course of which ho was rep resented ns being In favor of tho Panama route. Ho declared he had had no Inter view with nnyono upon that subject. Tho artlclo misrepresented him entirely. "I nm decidedly In favor," enld he, "of pressing tho Nicaragua project ns rapidly as possible, nnd If It were In ray power I should bo very glad to bring tho matter up for a vote today." Mr. Clay of Georgia mado a similar statement about tho same article, assort ing that he never had Intimated to anyone what his views on tho canal question woro, but that he did, ns a fact, favor tho Nica ragua project and not the Panama route, as stated In tho artlclo In question. Tho bill to establish tho Department of Commcrco was called up by Mr. Nelson of Minnesota. After soma minor amendments had been offered, by Mr. Nelson and adopted, .Mr. Lodgo offered an amendmont to section 11 of tho bill providing that tho secretary of stato should designate an official In his', department to furnish Instructions to con sular officers supplied by tho secretary of commerce and to prepare tho dispatches of tho consular ofQco for transmission to the secretary ot commerce. Kelson Illll Under Fire. Tbo nmendmcnt aroused considerable comment, all ot it being favorablo to Mr. Lodge's proposition. Mr. Halo sharply criticised fho bill. Ho said tho measufo so suddenly flashed upon tho senato created the largest department In the government. It did not begin In a modest way, but ransacked overy depart ment ot tho government for Important bureaus, to dump Into this now depart ment: Tho now secretary of commerce would becomo tho most Important nicmbor of tho cabinet. Ho would be oven a moro Important official than tho secretary ot tho treasury, with all ot his groat adminis trative duties. Many bureaus had been Included in the proposed department that havo no moro re lation to commerce than light has to dark ness. Ho referred particularly to tbo transfer to the new department of the coast and geodetic survey and urged that It that bureau woro changed at all It should be placed under the Navy department. He referred to various "navies" In the sev eral departments. This brought Mr. Tillman to his feet. Teller Follow Tlllmnn. "I would like to add anotbor navy to thoso enumerated by tho sonator," he said, "that is, tho army transport service. That la assuming great proportions and about tt I havo heard som'o scandal." At tho lnstanco of Mr. Toller tho sec tion providing for tho transfer of the geological survey to tho department ot commcrco was stricken out. Mr. Halo gave notice ot an amendment providing for the transfer of tho coast nnd geodetic survey to tho Navy department. After Mr. Piatt of Connecticut had criti cised tho bill and urged that no action bo taken at this time, the measure wont over.

MUled by lleiidllnr. Mr, Clay ot Georgia, referring to his privileged statoment mado earlier In the session concerning a newspaper article dealing with tho attitude of senators on the isthmian canal project, said that an examination of tho article showed that he had been Included among senators favorablo to n full consideration of the canal ques tion. That was true; ho had been misled by tbe headlines In .Introducing a bill to excludo Chinese from coming to the United States. Mr. Mitchell c! Oregon said the policy nnd gcnernl provisions of the measure wore approved by tho Paclflo coast senators and representatives, but It had been agreed that this approval should not affect tho prlvllcgo of any member to offer amend ments when the bill was considered.
