Five men held under detention clause in Mexico land case
Guthrie Oklahoma August 31 five men A T Brown W L Chapman John Garrett L C Grimes and R C Conine wanted in Mexico for alleged falsification of public documents in the Nicki poo Indian land case are confined in the federal jail awaiting a hearing on bond. A hearing will occur after requisition papers from Mexico arrive and Washington replies. John Embry says he has not decided whether to oppose bond though all inmates say they can post bond. Prisoners may be held forty days under the treaty. Some men have strong political ties, potentially influencing the U S to refuse requisition for bond. Former indictments in Texas remain pending and a 1907 suit to recover lands is ongoing in federal court.
