CHICAGO, May ia dispatch from
Yankton, Dakota, says that dispatch
received there last night from the
Yankton Indian agency states that the
Sioux Indians at that place are pairing
ing to negotiate with the government
for the sale of about seven townships

that their treaty with the United

a rush of settlers is expected to follow
its opening to homesteaders, which
