The enforcement of the Indian treaty of 1855 will not affect the re- tail saloon business in the villages of Buhl, Chisholm and Hibbing, accord^ ing to Victor L. Power, mayor of Hib- bing and attorney for the retail liquor dealers who are interested in the In- dian treaty matter, who was in the city for a short time last evening. "The saloons of Hibbing and Chis- holm will not be closed the first of October, even if the department de- cides to rigidly enforce the Indian lid," said Mr. Power last night. "They will not be closed either until the last court in the land has passed on cer- tain fine legal questions involved, which may require several years. The East Swan river is defined as the eastern boundry of the so-called In- dian country. Just what constitutes the East Swan river is not clear. The government maps are conflicting. There are two branches of the stream. If the main river is construed to have its source at the headwaters of the western branch Hibbing and Chisholm are in the Indian territory. If the eastern branch is construed to be the headwaters they are clearly outside of it. There are other points of law also which will give the liquor deal ers a good case and which will be fought to the last ditch." Pleased With Settlement. Mr. Power declared himself well jleased with the basis of the settle- ments effected with the mining com- panies in the Buhl and Mountain Iron cases. "Everybody is happy over the outcome," said Mr. Power. The basis of settlement is fair and satisfactory to all concerned and from the stand- point of my clients is much more sat- .sfactory than the prospect of ex- pensive litigation long drawn out in the courts." RUSSIAN FLEET NOW AWAITING xteported in the Gulf of Finland, Preparing to Engage Kaiser's Warships. STOCKHOLM, Aug. 13.—The Swed ish steamer Runeberg, which arrived here Monday from Raumo, Finland., •eported that she had not seen a single warship in the Arland archi- pelago or anywhere else.

DANIELS OPPOSES MONUMENT TO CHIEF Indian War Surgeon Says Mou-zco maun-nee Did Not Aid the Whites. NOTED DRIVERS ARRIVE FOR HIBBING RACES Several Speed Demons Already En- tered and Others Are on the Way. HIBBING, Aug. 13.—Drivers are registering in rapid succession for the free-for-all road race that is to be run Saturday morning around the Mahoning loop. Experts from all parts of the northwest are expected here for the event and, incidently, to take part in the track races to be held each afternoon at the fair grounds. Joe Littlewood, a noted driver from Minneapolis, the man who made the run from Minneapolis to St. Cloud, a distance of 69 miles in 88 minutes, has arrived with his racer and made several trial trips over the track. Paul Platske, will be one of the contestants and is noted as a daring man at the wheel. Two Ford cars are to arrive tomorrow from Mankato to enter , the road and track races. Frank Banks, the local speed artist will drive his racer while Delmo will be at the wheel of another. Shannon of Chisholm is also scheduled to drive and it is under- stood that other drivers will arrive today. Tomorrow is Ford day, when the little machines will be given an op- portunity to race at the track. CANADIAN PORTS OPEN TO LAKE TRAFFIC MONTREAL, Aug. 13.—The order closing the port of Montreal was tem- porarily lifted yesterday to allow the steamship Royal Edward to sail with 500 French reservists on board. The Royal Edward expects to meet French or British worships in the gulf and be conveyed across the Atlantic. In England the vessel may be taken over by the British admiralty. While the ports of Montreal and Quebec have been closed as far as ocean-going traffic is concerned, this order it was explained by port authorities, has no reference to the inland water traffic on the riven and lakes. ST. PETER, Minn., Aug. 13.—In the opinion of Dr. A. W. Daniels of thr city a mistake is being made in erect ing a monument to Mou-zoo-maun- nee, supposed to have been a Chippewr chief who was friendly to the white? during the Sioux massacre of 1862 The last legislature voted an appro priation for the erection of the monu ment, and it is to be dedicated at Fori Ridgley on Aug. 20. Prior to the outbreak Dr. Daniels was- the government surgeon at the Lower agency, and he was one of three doctors who accompanied Colonel Flandrau's force when it marched tc the relief of New Ulm. He helped care for the wounded in both battles at that place. "When I was surgeon at the Lower agency before the Indian war," says Dr. Daniels, "I was familiar with the name, Mou-zoo-maun-nee. Translated, it means Walking Iron. I may have known the warrior personally; in any event his name was familiar to me, and I know him to have been a Sioux. In all probability he took part in the massacre. "I have no recollection of services being rendered to the whites by any Chippewa, nor do the histories of the massacre make mention of such a fact. It is extremely improbable that any of the Chippewas ventured into the Sioux country. Had they done so they would have been killed, for the two nations were at war at the time. "Other Day, a Sioux chief, did dis- play friendship for the whites, and succeeded in saving several large par- ties of them. I know of no Chippewa who gave assistance, and I believe the identity of Mou-zoo-maun-nee should be thoroughly established by the state historical society before the monument at Fort Ridgely is dedi- cated." AMUSEMENTS. At the Lyric. "The Moonshiner's Daughter," in three acts, is the play selected by the St. Clair Stock company for tonight and the week-end. This is one of those very interesting Southern com- edy dramas which deals with the illicit selling of moonshine whiskey. There is a great-deal x>f comedy throughout the entire action of the play and Harry St. Clair will be seen in one of his famous negro parts. Miss Enid Delle will be seen in the part of Daisy, the adopted daughter of the Moonshiners; Miss Connie Hallet in the part of Tatters, the neglected child; Ivan Hambly as Tom Logan, the leader of the moonshiners; Charlie Jackson, as the revenue officer; Hen- ry Gurvey, as Bid Dwyer, the lover of Daisy and the rest. of the company all havei excellent parts. Miss Doro- thy Wolbert and Marshall Sayles are two new acquisitions to the company, having just arrived from Chicago and will be seen tonight in this verypleas- ing eomedty drama.

Ar impromptu concert w$s given in honoi of the guests at the Royal Alexandria by ^n Icelandic male chorus under the baton of B. ThorlaksoriV organist and choir director of the - Scandinavian element of Winnipeg. The Icelandic is the oldest and most prosperous.

Indian Treaty Does Not Apply to Those Towns Declares

Victor L. Power.

The enforcement of the Indian treaty of 1855 will not affect the re­tail saloon business in the villages of Buhl, Chisholm and Hibbing, accord^ ing to Victor L. Power, mayor of Hib­bing and attorney for the retail liquor dealers who are interested in the In­dian treaty matter, who was in the city for a short time last evening.

"The saloons of Hibbing and Chis­holm will not be closed the first of October, even if the department de­cides to rigidly enforce the Indian lid," said Mr. Power last night. "They will not be closed either until the last court in the land has passed on cer­tain fine legal questions involved, which may require several years. The East Swan river is defined as the eastern boundry of the so-called In­dian country. Just what constitutes the East Swan river is not clear. The government maps are conflicting. There are two branches of the stream. If the main river is construed to have its source at the headwaters of the western branch Hibbing and Chisholm are in the Indian territory. If the eastern branch is construed to be the headwaters they are clearly outside of it. There are other points of law also which will give the liquor deal ers a good case and which will be fought to the last ditch."

Pleased With Settlement. Mr. Power declared himself well

jleased with the basis of the settle­ments effected with the mining com­panies in the Buhl and Mountain Iron cases. "Everybody is happy over the outcome," said Mr. Power. The basis of settlement is fair and satisfactory to all concerned and from the stand­point of my clients is much more sat-.sfactory than the prospect of ex­pensive litigation long drawn out in

the courts."

NOTED DRIVERS ARRIVE FOR HIBBING RACES

Several Speed Demons Already En­tered and Others Are on the

Way.

HIBBING, Aug. 13.—Drivers are registering in rapid succession for the free-for-all road race that is to be run Saturday morning around the Mahoning loop. Experts from all parts of the northwest are expected here for the event and, incidently, to take part in the track races to be held each afternoon at the fair grounds. Joe Littlewood, a noted driver from Minneapolis, the man who made the run from Minneapolis to St. Cloud, a distance of 69 miles in 88 minutes, has arrived with his racer and made several trial trips over the track. Paul Platske, will be one of the contestants and is noted as a daring man at the wheel. Two Ford cars are to arrive tomorrow from Mankato to enter , the road and track races. Frank Banks, the local speed artist will drive his racer while Delmo will be at the wheel of another. Shannon of Chisholm is also scheduled to drive and it is under­stood that other drivers will arrive today.

Tomorrow is Ford day, when the little machines will be given an op­portunity to race at the track.

CANADIAN PORTS OPEN TO LAKE TRAFFIC

MONTREAL, Aug. 13.—The order closing the port of Montreal was tem­porarily lifted yesterday to allow the steamship Royal Edward to sail with 500 French reservists on board. The Royal Edward expects to meet French or British worships in the gulf and be conveyed across the Atlantic. In England the vessel may be taken over by the British admiralty. While the ports of Montreal and Quebec have been closed as far as ocean-going traffic is concerned, this order it was explained by port authorities, has no reference to the inland water traffic on the riven and lakes.

ST. PETER, Minn., Aug. 13.—In the opinion of Dr. A. W. Daniels of thr city a mistake is being made in erect ing a monument to Mou-zoo-maun-nee, supposed to have been a Chippewr chief who was friendly to the white? during the Sioux massacre of 1862 The last legislature voted an appro priation for the erection of the monu ment, and it is to be dedicated at Fori Ridgley on Aug. 20.

Prior to the outbreak Dr. Daniels was- the government surgeon at the Lower agency, and he was one of three doctors who accompanied Colonel Flandrau's force when it marched tc the relief of New Ulm. He helped care for the wounded in both battles at that place.

"When I was surgeon at the Lower agency before the Indian war," says Dr. Daniels, "I was familiar with the name, Mou-zoo-maun-nee. Translated, it means Walking Iron. I may have known the warrior personally; in any event his name was familiar to me, and I know him to have been a Sioux. In all probability he took part in the massacre.

"I have no recollection of services being rendered to the whites by any Chippewa, nor do the histories of the massacre make mention of such a fact. It is extremely improbable that any of the Chippewas ventured into the Sioux country. Had they done so they would have been killed, for the two nations were at war at the time.

"Other Day, a Sioux chief, did dis­play friendship for the whites, and succeeded in saving several large par­ties of them. I know of no Chippewa who gave assistance, and I believe the identity of Mou-zoo-maun-nee should be thoroughly established by the state historical society before the monument at Fort Ridgely is dedi­cated."

LONDON, Aug. 12.—A dispatch to the Daily Telegraph from Brussels says a German major was the first to cross the bridge entering Luxemburg. He found his way barred by a cabinet minister who turned his automobile across the bridge and taking a copy of the Berlin treaty from his pocket showed it to the major, who remarked:

"I am acquainted with it but have orders which I must execute."

Duchess Confronts Officer. Immediately afterward Marie Ade­

laide, grand duchess of Luxemburg, drove up in a motor car, which the chauffeur turned lengthwise across he bridge while the duchess exclaim-jd: "The neutrality of Luxemburg must be respected. I shall telegraph Emperor William!"

The German officer answered: "You lad better go home quietly."

When the commander of the Luxem­burg army remonstrated, the German officer, pointing a revolver toward the •ommander, retorted: "If these are not /our methods they are ours. Clear out."

Work of Destruction Begins. ^ Soon the work of military destruc­

tion began. "Villas, and farmhouses vere demolished," says the correspon-lent, "and thickets cut down for strategic purposes. From Luxemburg to Rodange the fields are devastated md houses razed. Trenches have been lug. Whoever casts a glance at these is arrested as a spy/'
