A Number of Men Said to Have Conc In
and Took up Lauds.
Salt Lake, Utah, April "a special
to the Tribune from Fort Duchesne,
Utah, says:
Yesterday morning the post was
crowded with men anxious to know II
the Uncompahgre reservation would
be thrown open. When the truth of
the situation began to dawn upon the
crowd there was n rush to hitch up
teams, and in short time they were
on the road hoping to gain possession
of the few acres of good agricultural
land along Green river and the gold
and copper bonanzas along the west
ern edge of the reservation.
No precautions had been taken to
circumvcnt "sooners." Neither the
Indians nor the post commander had
been apnrised that the opening would
occur. To-day the cat was let out of
the bag. While everyone was indulg-
Ing In talk that the time for opening
would be extended six months the
moneycd interest was at work Brief
ly stated, the play was to gain POSSES
sion of the gilsonite veins, which
seems to have resulted that the st.
Louis corporation practically controls
the whole available gilsonite product
OF America. They worked through the
men. mostly citizens OF Vernal, who
took claims in good faith over ten
years ago.
1t is claimed by the best legal talent
that these claims now hold good un-
der the general mining laws.

Ridgeway, ILL.,, April 5.--To-night al
most two score of bodies of victims of
the Shawneetowu flood have been re-
covered, and hundreds of homeless
people nre dependent upon charity for
food and shelter. The death list is
likely to be largely increased when
definite information from the negro
quarter, which suffered most, is Sc
cured.
The flood burst on these people with
out warning and owing to the weak
condition of their shanties they top
pied over In the rush of water. leaving
their inmates no means of getting out
of danger. Hundreds of people who
lived farther from the river front
found safety on roofs and in upper
stories. or made retreat to the hills
to the west. These are being removed
as rapidly as possible to places where
they can be given proper care. No
effort has yet been made to search for
bodies, the attention of the relief par
ties being directed almost entirely to
the distribution of supplies and max
ing the homeless as comfortable as
possible. The relief work is well or
ganlzed. Tents and blankets sent by
the governor to-day will be promptly
distributed. Those who escaped lost
everything, and their homes are in
