Washington, Dec. 9-The industrial
commission is about to prepare it's re-
port upon the subject of trusts. With
out being directly antagonistic to those
industrial combinations, the report is
expected to recommend to congress the
advisabllity of adopting additional
legislation to regulate them. The re-
port is expected to be ready for presen-
tation to congress when 1t reassembles
after Christmas. Senator Kyle, chair
man of the commission, said today:
"The modern trust is the natural out
growth of modern progress. In the
main it is a blessing to mankind. That
is one of the conclusions reached by
the commission. Another is that there
should be some means adopted to pro-
perly regulate them. We shall
probably make some recommendation to
amend the interstate laws in one or
more ways. After examination we
have, as means of controlling trusts,
first, the tariff. Second, publicity, by
making the books and annual records
free of access to public officers. Third,
extension of the interstate commerce
| laws. Fourth, increasing stringency of
| Sherman antitrust law. The avenue of
state legislation, such as a limitation
of the amount of capital to be employed
by any one company operating under a
state charter, is all open to us. We
shall recommend, however, that con-
gress go very slow in legslating on
| this question. We have no desire tC
hamper the Industrial progress of the
country. We realize that there are few

AN FRESHMAN
INDIAN CHIEF.
Call Him White Buffalo But
Right Name is Roddy.
TO BE CROWNED CHIEF TODAY.
Successor to Black Hawk as Head of the
winnebagos and Has Lived with
Indians since Childhood Got
Rich Selling Firewater.
Special to News-Democrat.

SDeCldl W NSWS-IJeIlOCIdL.
Chicago, Dec. 9.-It is understood that
Thomas r. Roddy, Chicago, head of the
famous tribe of Winnebago Indians, is
to be crowned chief of the big tribe
either today or tomorrow. A council
will be held at which the governor of
Wisconsin and the commissioner of In
dian affairs will be present. The belt
will then be placed upon Mr.. Roddy's
shoulders and he will assume control.
The successor to Black Hawk, styled by
the Indians white Buffalo, is the first
and only white man that has ever held
the chieftainship of leading tribe of
II Indians. White Buffalo is of Irish de-
scent and has been among the Indians
from his childhood. During the Black
| hawk war his father traded with the
| Indians, and was of assistance to them
| in many ways Black Hawk took great
fancy to young Roddy, who was then
styled "Wank Was Shu Sha," meaning
| brave man." From his childhood the
| latter lived in the camps of the Indians
| and adapted himself to their customs
| and manners. AS he grew older Roddy
entered the trading business on his own
hook and made a small fortune for him
| self selling blankets and fire water tc
| the red men. He travelled from camI
to camp and became very popular with
all the tribes around the Great Lakes
Black Hawk looked after him continu.
ally and noticed the great ability hi
had for business. A few years aftel
the civil war, when Black Hawk was
about sixty years of age, he induced
I2oddy to forsake the trading bushes!
and act as his secretary. Roddy ther
virtually ruled the tribe under the di
rection of Black Hawk. In this way h,
got an insight into the private affairs
of the Winnebagoes and made himsel
a most desirable candidate to succeed
Black Hawk. This was impossible a
the time, however, as Black Hawk haC
one son, who was to assume commant
on the death of his father. Anothe
candidate for the leadership was Greei
Cloud He is a valiant warrior and hat
followed Black Hawk through nearl,
all his wars. He contmved, with hi
brother-in-law, to do away with youni
Black Hawk. He thought that IL Blacl
Hawk died without appointing a sue
cessor he would be able to gain tn
leadership. But Roddy has finally bee
able to completely outwit him, and
now to be the acknowledged chief
