NO CAUSE FOR AGITATION.
YanktOn Sioux Not Likely to Lose
the Pipestone Quarries.

WASHINGTON, July IL. The
alarm of the Yankton Sioux Indians
of South Dakota over the supposed
loss by them of the Pipestone quar-
ries is said by the Indian office to
be based on a misconception. So
far from the Indians having lost
title to the quarries, their rights
have never been stronger than now,
and unless some action in the mat
ter is taken within one month by
the United States government, it is
probable that the title will become
absolute. The last Indian agree
ment and appropriation bill passed
by congress provided no machinery
by which the matter could be
brought before the supreme court.
A suit cannot ordinarily be institut-
court will take much more than one
year to reach the supreme court.
An attempt was made to add an
amendment to the bill remedying
this defect, but congress failed to
take action in the matter. Later
the attorney general decided that the
government was poWerless to act
under the bill. The agreement hav-
ing been ratified by congress, and
the Indians not being responsible for
the failure to provide means of
action, it is considered that the
title will vest in them absolutely on
Aug. Is. If a suit were begun in the
lower court before that time it might
possibly be held to keep alive the
governments claim if it did not
reach the supreme court within the
Specified YEAR

YELLOW JACKS ALARMING
SPREAD IN WEST INDIAN
ISLANDS.
A MOST MALIGNANT TYPE.
HUNDREDS OFF VICTIMS AMONG
THE SPANISH SOLDIERS IN
CUBA.
HOSPITALS FULL OF VICTIMS.
The Disease Close to Havana
Protection Against Its Spread
to America.

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Advices
to the surgeon general of the marine
hospital service indicate quite an
alarming increase in yellow fever in
Cuba and West Indian islands. The
week ending June 20 recorded TWEEN
ty-eight deaths il Santiago, while
there is an average of five deaths
daily at Puerto Principe, a city Of
about $4,000. There are about 100
cases in the military hospital at San
Juan de Puerto Rico and the dis
ease is rapidly increasing. The re-
port from Santiago says: 1.-THE death
rate is increasing at an alarming
rate" At Puerto Principe the dis
ease is of the most malignant type.
This place is near the center of the
island of Cuba, which would indi-
cate that the disease is virulent and
epidemic, and is making it's way to-
ward Havana and the western end
of the island. The news from San
Juan comes as a surprise, as moth
ing had been previously heard from
that port since the oath of April,
when only one death was reported.
San Juan is the capital of the island
of Porto Rico, the most eastern of
the West Indies, and one Of the Span
ish possessions. The report from this
point is dated June 1, and comes
from the United States consul there,
He says that no record of the cases
is published, but that he gets his
information from reputable physi-
clans. He attributes the new i'm
pulse of the disease to the presence
there of Spanish troops, and adds:
while the military barracks are
never quite free from this disease,
the present condition of things bids
fair to produce serious epidemic
of fever, if it has not already
reached that stage, during the
months of July, August, September
and October. Three hundred or more
cases are in the military hospital,
and the disease seems to be increas-
ing, while the mortality is alarm
ing, reaching as high as so or 80 per
cent" His report indicates the pres
ence of fever, and also of smallpox,
in the surrounding country and in
the city outside of the hospital In
view of these reports, Surgeon Gen
eral Wyman is rebuilding his eff
forts for the protection of the Amer
lean coast against infection.

RIVER AND HARBOR WORK.
Progress of improvements on
Wisconsin Waterways.

Progress of improvements on
Wisconsin Waterways.
WASHINGTON, July 11-Captain
Carl f. Palfrey has reported to the
chief of engineers upon the improve
ments of rivers and harbors on the
western shore of Lake Michigan. This
includes number of small points in
Michigan and Wisconsin, as we'll as
the more important harbor of Milwau-
kee and the canal connecting Lake
Michigan with the other lakes. AT
Milwaukee the object was to obtain an
eighteen-foot channel into the Milwau-
kee river, which is the interior harbor.
as the twenty-one-foot channel be-
tween Buffalo and Duluth is obtained
a harbor of that depth will be needed
at Milwaukee. AT Green Bay, it is
stated, the siXteen-foot channel, 100
feet wide, will be completed by the
end of the season. In the Sturgeon
bay and Michigan canal a regular
depth of thirteen feet of water has
been obtained. This canal was bought
by the government in 1892. On the
project to secure fourteen feet of water
at Kewaunee harbor, Wisconsin, thir-
teen feet has been obtained. At Mani
towoc, Wis, where the object was to
obtain eighteen feet of water at the
entrance, sixteen feet has been Sc
cured. The same is the case at She
boygan, Wis. On the breakwater for
the harbor of refuge at Milwaukee bay,
work has been continued and $4,000
expended during the year. At Racine,
Wis, thirteen and five-tenths feet Of
water has been obtained, while sixteen
feet is desired. The improvement of
the Fox and Wisconsin rivers is nearly
completed by the construction of locks
and dams. 1t has cost $9,033, $50. The
operation of the locks cost $40, 900 dur
ing the year.

EXECUTIVE OFFICES.
Col. Wilson Recommends a Build

COi. wilson recon menus a build
ing to Cost $25O,OOO.
WASHINGTON, July 11.-Col. John
M. Wilson, of the engineering corps
in charge of the White house and
other public buildings and parks
about Washington, in his annual re-
port recommends that an appropria-
ton of $250,000 be made for the cree
ton, within the executive mansion
grounds and directly opposite the
treasury building, of granite
structure for offices for the chief
executive sof the nation.
This structure" he says, "can be
connected by wide corridor, with
a large conservatory fitted up as a
winter garden, with tropical plants,
fountains and statues of eminent
Americans. The conservatory could
open into a picture gallery, con-
nected by two wide corridors with
the East room, and these improve
ments would serve double purpose
by relieving the mansion of the ter
rible crush incidental to the even
ing official receptions. I earnestly
hope that this important matter may
no longer be delayed, and that ac-
ton may be taken at the approach
ing session of congress toward erect
ing a suitable office building for the
president Of the United States"

MAKING WAR ON PERU.
Three Crippled Republics Talk of
n Set-TO,

WASHINGTON, July II. = South
American diplomats in Washington
are much interested in the press re-
ports that Bolivia has presented the
ultimatum to Peru, which the later
has rejected. and that Bolivia and
Ecuador have formed an alliance with
the purpose of making war on Peru.
Peru's former strength has disap-
peared since her war with Chilli. The
Chilians took all the Peruvian war
ships, and it is believed that one old
Peruvian navy. The army is said to
number 1900 men. Bolivia has no navy
and her army is said to be about the
same as that of Peru. She is entirely
inland since the war with Chill when
Chilli took possession of those prov
inceS which had formed Bolivias coast
line. Ecuador is said to be in good
fighting trim, as she has just emerged
from a revolution, and all her people
are in arms. But her navy is insig-
nificant, her only good war ship hav-
ing been sold to Japan some months
ago. 1t looks, therefore, to those con-
versant with the situation, that these
three crippled countries would not en-
gage in very formidable war They
cannot fight by sea, and there are
great stretches of desolate and mount
ainous country between them. Chilli
is in no way interested in the trouble.
The last war appears to have estab-
Hshed her firmly as mistress of the
west coast of South America,
