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."

Ponlttun.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 16. 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.
The following bills, togother with a largo
number of private pension bills, woro
passod:

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. The
bill was referred to tho commltteo on Immi
gration. Tho senate then, at 2:27 p. m., went Into
executive session, and when the doors were
reopened nt 2:50 a resolution expressive of
tho senate's sorrow nt the death of Ilobort
E. Burke, formerly a representative In con
gress from Texas, was adopted and the
senate at p. m. adjourned until Monday.
