SCANDAL EXISTS IN

Superintendent of South Dakota ln--
stitutlon' Accused Of Numer-
Gus 0ffenses,
LATE SUPERVISOR FILES THEM
Cites Instances Where Patients
We're knocked Down aud
KicAcL--i,os, Accused
OF Drunkenness.

Yankton, 3. d., Jan THE board
of charities and corrections has been
in session and an investigation of the
management of the state insane asy-
lum urder DR.. Ross is i'm progress. lie
is charged with drunkenness and mis-
appropriation of funds, and the most
sensa tional charges are made in re-
gard to the care of patients OF which,
u is claimed, he must have been cog
rizant. Instances are cited where the
quietest patients were Knocked down
and kicked by the attendants, and one
such is lying in the sick ward now In
critical condition.
Following is an abstract taken from
the charges against DIR. Ross, superlIf-
tcndent. which were filed before
the board by Mr.. Donovan, late super
visor Of the asylum: IL charge that
DR.. Ross, as superintendent Of the
South Dakota hospital for the insane,
has shown himself to be incompetent,
dishonest, Il man who drinks 10 eN-
cess and exhibits violent temper.
On the evening of November 10, when
fire was discovered in ward of the
institution, Superintendent Ross and
Dr.. Wright were both in the dispen-
sary. Neither OF these gentlemen ar
rived at the scene of the fire until
after the patients had been removed
from wards s and o, hose laid and
water turned on. DR.. Ross rushed
back and forth in the ward using pro-
fame language and exhibiting violent
temper, but did nothing to aid in the
work of extinguishing the fire. When
the fire was at its height DIR. Wright
ordered the water turned off. ! know
that DR.. Ross was intoxicated upon
this occasion and, Judging from the
actions of DR. Wright, | feel certain
that he had been drinking TO excess
also.
AT the time of Mrs. Wo4d's attempt
ed suicide and subsequent death, to
the knowledge of DR.. Ross, n box OF
matches was found scattered about the
ward. In his report he stated that no
matches were found in the ward and
that the patient must have picked the
match I'D outside. After the death
OF Mrs. Wold DR. Ross wanted TO know
what to do. told him to notify the
patients relatives and the coroner.
At first he refused TO notify the cor
oncr, saving that if the fool attendants
had only kept still he could have
buried her and said nothing about it.
After the coroner had made his exam
ination Dir. Ross came to me and Dor
rowed SO. He then placed the money
i'm an envelope and stated that he was
going to fix the coroner with IT. lie
afterwards returned the money to me,
saying that the coroner had refused to
accept 1t.
AS supervisor / have upon various
occasions known of certain attendants
beating and abusing patients, and in
each case have reported the TACT TO
Dr. Ross. Upon one occasion Ross
himself witnessed the abuse Of a pa
ticnt. H. saw the attendant beat the
patient and knock him down, and in
this case, as in others OF the same ma
ture. he did not even reprimand the at
tendant nor take any steps to prevent
a repetition of the affair in the fu'
ture,'

HIGHWAYMAN KILLED.
Shot While Attempting To Hold Up

DHOt w W
n Seattle Street Car.
Seattle, Wash, Dec. 30.-In an at
tempt to hold up Ballard street car
last night highwayman was shot
and killed. There were eight passen-
gers aboard when two masked men
boarded the car, one at the front and
the other at the rear. One of the pas
sengers named Plymton opened fire
on the highwayman entering the car
from the rear and three shots were re-
turned. One broke Plympton's arm
and another entered his breast. Pas
sengers standing on the front end of
the car fired on the robber on the
front platform. At the first shot the
robber on the front reeled from the
car and fed TO the woods. After the
firing on the rear end had ceased the
second robber took TO the woods. Bull
let's passed through the clothes of two
of the passengers. The robbers Sc
cured nothing. Shortly after mid
night the police found near the scene
of the hold up the body of one, of the
two robbers. He had ben killed by
bullets from a passengers pistol. The
body is still unidentified.

Belief That He VIII Attempt to Re.

Before the Arrival of

Lourenzo Marquee, Jan. 1.-Pre-
toria advices Of December 81 say an
official dispatch from Mafeking an
nounces that in sortie by the British
Christmas day, attacking the Boer
fort with cannon, maxims and an ar
mored train, rushing up to the walls
of the fort, the British lost 109 killed
and wounded. The Beers had two
killed and seven wounded. A dispatch
from the Boer camp at Modder river,
December 30, reports an artillery duel
lasting an hour, December 81. A Brit
ish reconnoitering party made a sor-
tie, but did not come within the Boer
range. December % the British be-
gan bombardment of the Boer posi-
ton.
Ladysmith story Discredited.
London, Jan. 1.-The reported sor-
tie from Ladysmith, which was said
to have resulted in the capture OF the
Boer position, is not confirmed ana
is apparently only a Kaffir story. n
Chieveley dispatch dated December
20, makes no mention of it. The same
message shows renewed activity upon
the part of the British, apparently
preparatory to some action. Inc
Boer position eastward of the camp
was thoroughly reconnoitered Decem-
Der 2s, without drawing the enemy.
The naval guns are engaged in daily
practice and it is said on good author
ity that thirty or forty Beers have
been killed by the firing of the past
two days. A dispatch from Durham
predicts that Ladysmith will be re-
ieved on or about January Z. While
there is nothing to bear out this fore
cast there is some disposition to be-
leve that Butler is preparing another
attempt to advance, this time by an
attack on the Boer position on
Inhlawe mountain.
Advices from Cape Town say there
is great dissatisfaction there at the ac-
ton of British insurance companies,
who are retarding volunteering by
making policy holders pay war risk
premiums, while the agencies of lead
ing American companies allow per-
feet freedom for naval and military
service.
The government has accepted 125
| Ceylon volunteers, mostly planters,
and has also accepted offers OF Indian
princes to supply horses.
The non-arrival of the Majestic, due
! at Cape Town Thursday, is causing
some surprise among the public, who
expected she would maintain the
usual transatlantic speed. Shipping
circles, however, explain that this is
due to the conditions imposed by coal
ing enroute, the necessity of econo-
MIXING her supply and of traversing
the tropics, all of which, they add.
combine heavily to discount her usual
rate of speed. They say all trans-At-
lantc liners would be similarly handi-
| capped.

TO INVEST BIG MONEY.
Golden Reward Mining Company
TO Spcnd Over S2OO,OOO.

TO Spend Over $2O0,OOO.
Deadwood, $. d., Jan. Harris
Franklin, vice president of the Golden
Reward Mining company, announces
since his return home from New York
city, where the directors of his com.
pany met last week, that money has
been appropriated for number OF
things which will start the new year
Out with an investment of over $780,.
600. The first thing that will be done
will he to erect q refinery, in which
the copper and gold In the matte will
be separated. The present method of
smelling the pyritic ores of the Black
Hills, as perfected by Dr. +. II. Car.
penter, is very simple. Certain por-
tions of ore, copper, limerick and
coke are dumped into the top OF one
of the brick stacks or furnaces, where
everything is turned into molten
mass. Similar to foundry stack, the
melted material is drawn out from
the bottom. The gold and copper
have an affinity for each other and
the rock, after the values have been
taken up by the copper, joins forces
with the limerick. The gold and cop
per combination Is called copper
matte and the waste material Is called
Stag. The copper and gold, being
much heavier than the Stag. settles
10 the bottom of the receptacle into
which the molten mass first run from
the stack. The copper matte ls drawn
off into a small car and the Stag runs
into another ear. the latter being talk
en- out from the building and dumped
over the bank as waste. The Golden
Reward company has just completed
putting up a reverberatory furnace
near the smelter, In which it is pro-
posed 10 run this Stag through again
and il is believed that 25 cents of the
80 cents in gold and silver, which is
left in the Stag. can be extracted.

BIG LINER IN DANGER.
German Steamer Goes Ashore In
q Storm on English Coast.

GtELuuu GtDumcr oOSc hbhOEG ~
Storm on English Coast,
London, Jan. LA large German
mail steamer whose name has not yet
been ascertained, has gone aground
during terrible gale in East bay
about a quarter of a mile of Dung.
ness, the southern extremity Of Kent.
Heavy seas are breaking over the
vessel and the lifeboats are unable to
reach her. Fears are entertained for
the safety of the passengers.
1t is believed that the grounded
steamer is one of the Hamburg-Amer-
lean liners. 1t is reported that the po-
sition of the liner is very serious. Tugs
and lifeboats were urgently reques-
toned from Dover and Folkestone, but
they had the utmost difficulty in get
ting OFF owing to the gale. The sig.
nails OF distress were observed from
the Sandhead lightship.
New York, Dec. DETERMINATIONS
of the sailing schedules and the mari
time register show no vessels of either
the Hamburg American or North Ger.
man Lloyd lines near Dungeness, and
it is almost impossible to conceive
how steamer of either line could be
near luC SpOt iuhlNdtth III lhI NabhNp
unless the departure Of vessel from
Hamburg or Bremen was a variation
from the advertised saillngs.
Cable dispatches for four days back
do not reveal that any liner Of the two
companies has sailed from Hamburg
or Bremen outward bound.
Eliminating the two German lines
from the problem would leave the At
lantic transpors, ,aRd the Wilson lines,
both of whose steamers pass Dun
geness, the former from London and
the later from Hull.
Sailing lists show that it is very un-
likely that any vessel of either line
would be in the position indicated.
The unfortunate vessel, therefore,
probably belongs to the Mediterran.
can, Oriental and South American side
OF the Hdmburg-American line.
