PROSECUTED BY HIS COMPETITORS.
A Grocer Arrested for Selling Oleomargarine
in Violation Of Federal Statutes.

w. II. Clarke. of TIE firm of Clarke & Co.,
Erocers. was placed under bond, yesterday, to
appear before United States Commissioners Van
Buren, next Monday. on the charge of selling
oleomargarine, both as butter and for not being
stamped in accordance with the new law enacted
by Congress. Clarke has nine stalls in the mar
ket-house, and the large business he does appar-
emily excited the jealousy Of competitors, who
began looking up his butter sales with the result
stated. Clarke claims that the purchasers knew
they were buying oleomargarine instead of but
ter, but this point there ara conflicting
statements. In regard to the packages not
being properly stamped, Clarke states that he
wraps oleonaargarine packages in brown paper,
for branding which ne has a self-fesding stencil,
which. he admitted, might not always make a
clear impression. In further verifcation OF
this he yesterday brought a roll of the stamped
paper 20 Marshal Hawkins for inspection,
which, he thought contained specimens of the
most carless markings. An examination OF the
roll showed that little care had been exercised
in the stamping. But four five out OF a
dozen sheets had been plainly marked. The
remaining sheets were indistinct or the brand en-
trsly missing.

the mail service. has instituted a libel suit
against John 81. Holiday, proprietor of the
News, and demands $1,000 damages. on account
OF alleged defamation of character by an article
published in that papar Dec. Is. The
article purported to be account of the pro-
ceedings of the colored Democratic club, and in
1t statements were made with reference to Hill
which he charges untrue, and calculated to
do him great injury. The particular sentence
in the article which he bases his action for
libel reads, "Ex-Patrolman MCGEE took the floor
and charged that Hill was a Democrat for reve-
nue. only, and that he had collected S17 from
Geo. W. Koontz in the recent campaign on the
plea that the money was due for rent, and that
he appropriated the amount to his own USE"
The article also states that resolution was in
troduced expelling Hill from the club, but that
it failed to pass. All these statements, tho
plaintiff says, are false.

A Dakota Wonder.

A Ynnkton special to the st. Paul
Globe bearing date Of Dec. Sth, a :
-. L. NJ. Pierce, Of this city, last night
received a letter from his agent in
Charles Mix county, informing him that
a volcano had been discovered on some
land owned by Pierce in that county.
1t is contended by the agent that a
veritable volcano, vomiting fire, ashes
and lava has been found. Mr.. Pierce's
opinion is that it is a mud spouter in the
nature Of a geyser. Even il it is that, it
is a curious phenomenon among the
rugged hills of Charles Mix county.
This geyser is located within a few miles
of the hot springs which discharge into
Missouri river near Fort Randall.
Other reports received here state that
the volcanic eruption is throwing out
lava, and that the people in the vicinity
are badly frightened. This place is
sixty miles north of Yankton, Oh the
missouri river"

TheSfoux Bill.

The situation, as it now appears, is
certaiOlv more favorable to the opening
of the Sioux reservation than it has
been at any time since the matter has
been agitated. Now that the matter of
securing the consent Of the Indians has
been found to be impracticable, and a
marked change observed in the senti.
ments of the pronounced friends Of the
Indians in the east, including Senator
Dawes and prominent officers of the
Indian Rights association, the early
passage of y bill for the opening of the
reservation to settlement. without the
submission clause may be fairly consid-
cred a matter of easy accomplishment.
The CHRONICLE has never entertained
the slightest hope of success in the effort
to open the reservation under a bill
providing for Indian consent but now,
since a bill has been introduced in con-
gress by Mr.. Clifford, ignoring the con-
sent Of the Indians, which has met with
the approval Of those who hare hitherto
90 strongly signifed their opposition TO
such a measure, we can but concede that
the aspects have assumed a more favor
able character, and that the prospects Of
success in this important dire action are
exceedingly 6att.ring.

Deadwood Drift.

A DeGdwood correspondent Of the st.
Paul Pioneer Press, says: "The Ruby
Basin and Bald Mountain districts are
alive with miners and prospectors.
Usually at this time Of year the noun.
tains in that locality are covered with
snow, but this year, owing to the fine
warm weather, the ground is bare. AS
the reduction works in this city near
completion, confidence in the company
increases, until now it is hard TO find a
man who does not believe that Mr.
Clark will make a success. This is the
secret of the rush to Ruby Basin. Those
who have no ground or stock are rustl-
ing. Prospectors are tramping for miles
around that locality, hunting for crop
pings, float or any other encouraging
sign. New locations are being made
daily, and ola locations are being de-
veloped as never before. The %vey
of the Deadwood Central are at work
upon the survey of the branch which is
to run to Ruby Basin. Grade stakes are
being driven, SO that grading can begin
as soon rs the present line is completed.
Mining stocks are active, many orders
coming from all over the east, and the
prices keep going up all the time. 1t is
rumored that when Mr.. Clark has COM
pleted his contract with the Deadwood
company he will erect another large
plant on Whitehall creek for the Buxton
company. This week The IIomestake,
Caledonia, Deadwood-Terra, De Smet
and Puma made their %bi-monthly ship
ments of bullion, amounting to some
thing I've S250,000, in gold bricks.
Regularly twice a month the Wells
Fargo express wagon, drawn by four
horses and guarded by two men with
double-barreled shotguns, make a tour
ofthe mines, gathering up the bullion.
1t is an old story to our people to see
these gold bricks, worth from $3.50 0 to
100000 each, but strangers crowd
the office and beg permission to
take a look at them. Before the close
OF 1890, it is safe to say, Deadwood will
ship q million ofgold bullion per month.
The reduction works now nearing com
pletion will produce thousands of dol
lars from mines that heretofore never
produced a cent, for the reason that the
gold could not be extracted by the com
mon stamp mill.

A Pine Ridge correspondent Of the
Deadwood Times communicates the fol-
lowing cool proceeding on the part Of a
Nashville, Neb., lunatic: "Qnite an ex-
element was caused here yesterday by
the appearance at this place of a crazy
white man who arrived in nearly a nude
state from Rushville, Neb., a distance of
nearly % miles from here. All hat the
man wore was an old undershirt which
was worn apron fashion, and fastened
around his loins by the sleeves. He
rode q horse the whole distance, and
although the weather was quito cool, he
seemed to suffer no inconvenience.
After soaring up a family or two by GO
ing through the house, entering one
door and going out another, he was cap
tured by the chief Of police. He stated
that his name was Sir William Wallace,
and that he came from Rushville, and
in quite a rational manner named sever
al prominent citizens there, with whom
he said he was acquainted. Sir William
is now dressed up, and langnishes in
the cooler to await further orders"

For some time it has been rumored
that a good flowing we'll had been struck

but that the hole had been plugged up
until such time as transportation facili-

this place, was hunting in the Stockade
country last week he saw the plugged
well, and he states that there was oil on
the surface for twenty feet around the
hole, which had evidently overlooked
from the well, AS the company had
made arrangements to sink 1000 feet,
but suddenly concluded to stop boring
and plug up the hole, there may be
more in the flowing well rumor than
mere fancy.-Sundance Gazette.
