Cutting Black Hills Timber.

DEADWOOD, S. D., Feb. 18-In-
spector Fay, who has been stationed in
the Black Hills by the government for
the purpose of stopping timber depre-
dations, is having considerable trouble
with parties who are evidently making
a business of cutting timber in the
Black Hills and secretly shipping it 10
other states in violation of law. Thus
far it has been impossible to run down
the thieves. The timber is first cut,
loaded on cars and shipped to Edge
mont, which is but a short distance
from the Nebraska and Wyoming lines.
1t is unloaded there, and when the OPP
portunity arrives it is again loaded on
cars and shipped out. A decision rem
dered by Judge Dundy today says set
tiers may cut timber for domestic use,
but not for shipment. Arrests are sure
to follow.

tending the time for making
income tax returns today reached
an agreement on the amend
ments made to the Dill in the senate.
The first amendment was accepted by

against double payment on amounts re-
ceived as dividends of corporations and
eXempting such dividends even in cases

the third amendment excepting tax
payers from answering any inquiries
not specifically provided for in the act,
and it was stricken out.
Senators Vest, White and Allen rep
resented the senate in the conference
and Representatives McMillen, Mont

man, earnestly, "these bonds will
never be worth less than their value
when they were sold. We received
gold for them. The people Of the
United States will resent any dishonor
on the United States in seeking to pay
our obligations in money of less value
than that we received"
Mr.. Sherman turned his attention to
the president and secretary of the
treasury. THE senator from Della
ware" CMr. Cray said Mr.. Sherman,
''seeks to defend the president. But
why should this be necessary? The
president has no power over bonds.
He has no business with them. The
secretary of the treasury is the only
one authorized to issue bonds, or to
conduct negotiations. The president
has no more power as to bonds than
he has to sit in the senator's seat in
the senate chamber"
Referring to the recent bond con-
tract, Mr.. Sherman said:

gard for the integrity of the president
and the secretary of the treasury, but

ITO deliver the bonds at the rate
given was at least improvident. With

able to redeem these bonds at one-half

ourselves to pay. The senator from

as to the presidents getting gold.

no difficulty in getting gold from Lon
don and Berlin
"And how" asked Mr.. Gray, lis gold
to be got except by buying it with
bonds?'
Mr.. Sherman said the manner of
getting it was to get full value Tor
our bonds. There had been no trouble
over previous bond contracts. Then
the executive officer followed the usual
rule and got full value for our bonds.
But the singular feature of the last
transaction was that bonds should sell
at 10412 when they were worth in COM
parison with our other bonds 100
Has the senator any market reports
showing these quotations." asked Mr..
Gray.
NO" said Mr. Sherman, "but does
rot the senator know thirtyyear bonds
are worth much more than those pre-
viously on the market?'
Then" said Mr.. Gray, "the sena-
tor is indulging in estimates and gen
eral speculation. He has no market
reports to establish the rates he
quotes"
Mr. Sherman said the bond con-
tract, while improvident, would not
ruin or break the United States. But
it was a hard bargain wrung from
our officials. mo issue Of bonds
should be made" said he, Except to
| the people of the United States. If a
reasonable proposition had been made

We have men il New York, Boston,
Philadelphia and Chicago, who being
applied to, would cover such bonds
into gold at their full value. We have
no need to look abroad"
Mr. Sherman closed by saying that
he had not intended any personal
criticism of the president or Of the
secretary of the treasury.
They have made a bad bargain

ness. including appropriation bills,

Senator Jones gave notice that the
silver bill would be kept before the
senate until a final vote was secured
before adjournment tomorrow.
From the strength shown by the sill

little doubt of Mr.. Jones ability to
secure the vote tomorrow unless OBJ
structive tactics or a test of physical
endurance are inaugurated. which is
regarded as likely. The vote to take

as to whether Or not a new trial should
be granted to the plaintiff in the sais-

ton was denied, and in conclusion OF
the decision the judge said: Il am OF
the opinion that no error was commit
ted at the trial. If the case is to be
tried again, it can be more safely
tried after the law has been settled by
the supreme court. If no error was
committed in the admission of evi-
dence on the trial, then I think the
damages are not insufficient, for the
plaintiff should not have recovered at
all, and the verdict should have been
for the defendant" Local Attorney
Plymat, for the plaintiff, said tonight
that papers would be prepared at
once for trial by the supreme court.

Fifty-third congress eliminated today
in the Altamonte bill being called up

step by step for the past six months
opposed by the Minnesota Canal COM

sin and Minnesota, the Jay Cooke in
1uence and other corporate Influences
Through the committees Baldwin has
been the victor in every instance, and
finally succeeded in doing what all pre-
dicted he could not do--getting the bill
up under suspension of the rules. This
required a tWo-thirds vote to carry,
and the bill was lost by only twenty
votes of having the tWo-thirdS major
ity. All the Minnesota delegation, eX-
cepting Hall and Baldwin, opposed the
bill. Having developed such strength,
the major is confident the committee
Oh rules will give a rule for the con-
sideratiOn of the bill under which it
will be carried by large majority.
Today, under the rules, was suspen-

To promote the efficiency of the rev.
