by Sheriff Matson and placed under
$1,000 bonds for his appearance to-mor-

raigned. Perrin was interviewed to-
night, and if he had been arrested for
murder he wouldn't have been more
surprised. He claimed that the whole
business was scheme of the detectives
to make his case of alleged robbery ap-

IN crossing and getting foothold before

to the contrary. Men who were through
the Oklahoma boom say the excitement
here fully equals what was experienced
there. Each train that came in to-day
brought numbers Of intending settlers,
who swelled the large and excited
crowd that had already gathered here.
Three miles above this city crowd of
boomers to the number of ten succeeded
IN getting past the guards and struck
out for the interior of the reservation
Col. IaSslm sent a detail of troops after
them, and word comes tonight that
seven of them have been caught and.
are IN the guard house at Fort Pierre.
Ihe commandant posted public notice
IN THIS city tonight, stating that any
boomers who are caught attempting to
enter the reservation contrary TO orders
and without permit will receive the
seVerest punishment allowed by mill
tary authority. This has had tendency
to dampen the ardor of the more enthu-
slastlc boomers, and they may be induced
yet tonight to await orders from mill
tary headquarters before making an
other rush. The weather is warm and
pleasant for winter, and the crowd that
is celebrating out doors suffers none
from cold. A big public meeting was
called at 10 p. m, and was in session at
midnight. Addresses were delivered
by Hon. John j. Kleiner, an ex-con-
gresham from Indiana and one of the
principal agents in securing the open
ing of the reservation, besides many
other leading citizens. The city is actu-
ally overrun with strangers. The po-

WINNIPEG, Man., Feb. 10.-Last
spring a Dakota farmer named Peter
SOD came here to visit some friends and
was arrested. Peterson had been ar
rested eighteen years ago charged with
knowingly receiving stolen horses,
though claiming to be innocent. He
was advised to plead guilty, being as
sured that only nominal fine
would be imposed. and that would
end the matter. He pleaded
guilty and was sentenced to three
years imprisonment. He subsequently
effected his escape from Stony Noun
tain penitentiary. This was about sew
enteen years ago. He took up farm
in Dakota, where he has wife and
family. Last May he came back to this
country, when he was rearrested and
sent back to Stony Mountain. A peti-
ton for pardon was largely signed here
and sent to the minister of justice at
Ottawa, but Sir John Thompson de-
clined to interfere. Mr.. Hagel to-day
appeared before the full court. and
asked for rule nisi for writ of habeas
corpus. The rule was granted, return
able Thursday, when it is expected a
writ of habeas corpus will be granted,
and Peterson set free.

A Wild, Scene Enacted at Cham

Special to the Globe.
CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., Feb. 10.-The
widest scene ever witnessed in the
Northwest was enacted here late this
afternoon, when news was received
that the president had received his pro-
clamation declaring the Sioux reserva-
ton open for settlement. Within
a few minutes after the receipt
of the news the immense crowd of
boomers who had congregated here in
anticipation of the issuance of the proc
lamation to-day were ON the move. and
a wild and exciting race took place be-
tween them as to who should be first to
cross the Missouri river and secure the
choice claims lying opposite this city.
The frozen surface of the river was
fairly black with the skurrying crowds,
some on foot running for dear life, 9TH
ers on horseback and hundreds
in wagons and other conveyances.
Soon they had scaled the bank on
the reservation side of the river, and
then began another wild scramble for
tile claims which have so largely been
coveted by the boomers. Many claims
had several occupants within very
few moments, but so far no blood has
been shed. Those who went over with
out taking lumber or supplies with
them had left orders here for what was
needed, and this evening an endless
train of wagons loaded with lumber and
supplies is going and coming betwe EN-
here and the claims west of the river.
The wild rush was very exciting, ami
the river bank on the east side was

RACE BETWEEN THE BOOMERS.
For several days tOwnsite companies
from Mitchell, Huron and Chamberlain
have been here closely watching each
other in order that one should not have
any advantage over the other in Secur-
Ing the townsite opposite Chamberlain.
The Chamberlain company, however,
was too sharp for the others. They had
their fellows secreted in gulch about
one mile south of town, others
remaining at the telegraph Of
fee to receive the news when
the presidential proclamation was
issued. A cannon was secured,
and was hidden under a bluff on the
river near the telegraph office. As soon
as message was received that the
proclamation was issued the Chamber

non, fired it Off as the signal to those
concealed in the gulch down the river,
and the latter at once rushed across,
and had over half mile start of the
Huron and Mitchell townslte compa-
nies, who did not give up the chase,
but hurried across also. 1t now looks
as though there would be several rival
towns on the fiat opposite here, and
long legal contest will be probably
necessary TO settle the matter. When
ti0n they were met by large body of
mounted Indian police, who appeared
to be dazed at the sudden appearance
of the settlers. and were powerless to
prevent them from entering the reserva-
ton.

islative deadlock is still on. The Re-
publicans were feeling very jubilant all
day yesterday, and last night congratu-
lated themselves on having passed lot

Democratic senator safe at the capitol.
Late last night the Democratic repre-
sentatives learned that neither the
speaker Of the Republican house nor
the president of the senate had
signed the appropriation bills in
the presence of their respect
i've houses, as provided by
the constitution. and consequently the
action taken Saturday night and Sum
day was void for this reason, if for no
other. Half dozen Democratic repre-
SentativeS then found Senator Becker
and explained the situation to him. A
special train was procured, and at 1880
this morning the Democratic senator
who had been brought. from Glendiye
by the Republicans started on his wild
ride for Idaho. Not stop was made,
and at some points speed of forty-two
miles an hour was obtained. About s
O'clock this morning telegram was re-
celyed in Helena, as follows:
Senator Becker has just passed through
Hope, Idaho. on his way to Spokane Falls,
Wash.
The news fell like thunderbolt on
the Republicans, and when the senate
met, at 10 O'Clock, the gloom prevailing
the chamber was very noticeable. The
roll was called. No mention was made
of Becker's absence, and then recess
was taken, The Republican senators,
now realize that they are powerleGs to
do anything. as all the Democratic
senators are out of the state, and Lieut.
Gov. Richards will be compelled to do
some extraordinary ruling to get up a

can senate and the Republican house.
The Republicans intended to ratify the
alleged election of Col. Sanders and Il.
G. Power as United States senators to.

Should the cold weather continue few
days longer the ice industry will give
employment to over 1900 men and
hundred teams. The advent of these
ice operators has created boom in saw
dust. and for the first time in the his
