Chamberlain, S. b., Dec. 11.-Stock-
men who have recently arrived in the
city from the range country west of
the Missouri river from this place re-
port that there Is a well defined move
merit on foot among the big cattle on
Germs to have a law passed at Pierre
this winter which will have n tend
ency to crowd out the small stockmen
on the ranges.
This report zones so frequently and.
from sources that ordinarily would be
considered absolutely reliable that
there apparently is little question as to
its truth. The precise method to be
employed to bring about the alleged OBJ
ject of the big companies Is not stated,
but it is certain that nothing could be
more detrimental to the state than to
discourage the large number of small
operators and turn the range country
over to Il few large companies. as more
benefit is naturally derived from a
large number of small operators. s
During the last few years large nuns
bers of people with moderate means
have gene upon the ranges. and under
the present favorable conditions have
been wonderfully successful. and they
feel that they are as much entitled to
consideration upon the ranges as those
Who are blessed with larger herds. Ii
the reported movement Is made it is
certain that a red hot fight Will result
at Pierre, as the small operators are
determined to protect their rights.

ADDING OF INTEREST ILLEGAL.
Attorney General Gives Opinion Regarding
Loans by Counties.

Attorney General Gives Opinion Regarding
Loans by Counties.
Pierre. s.. D., Dec. 11.-Land Com
missioner Eastman has called upon At
torney General Pyle for ar opinion as
to the right of~counties to charge an
additional per cent OF interest for state
school funds to cover the cost and trou-
Bile of handling the same.
While the constitution fixes the rate
of interest to be charged by the state
to the counties, a number of the coull-
ties of the state have beer adding from
h to l per cent additional TO this in
making the loans.
The opinion just received is to the ef-
feet that counties have no legal right
to exact this additional sum, but must
loan at the rate fixed, of 6 per cent.
The opinion further holds that this ac-
ton of the counties in charging a
greater sum than the legal interest
does not in any way affect the validity
of the loans already made; and thai in
the future only 6 per ent could be col
lected, regardless of the rate having
been made higher by the counties. In
this opinion the same position Is taken
as that taken by Attorney General
Grigsby several years ago.
AS, under the provisions of the new
amendment to the constitution, the
land department will in a few days be
In position to loan a maximum of 81. 900
on real estate, instead of the former
limit of $500. the question of interest Ia
likely to make quite a difference In the
number of loans made, as the rate Is so
close that the additional / per cent
would often make the difference be-
tween a state loan n a private loan.
The and department will u~ndoubted-
" hold that it can increase real estate.
loans under the provisions of the new
amendment as 500 as the votes are
counted and the result announced, as
this part of the amendment only in
,creases powers of the department all
ready granted to 1t. But that inregard
to the Investments of the state fund In
state, county and municipal bonds no
action can be taken until proper. legis-
latlon has been secured to govern the
nj of such Investments. AS this
manner of handling the fund is some
thing entirely new TO past methods. and
a grant of different powers to h COM

mates to be about $50 feet in depth,
Colonel Eldredge at first could not find

cradle difficulty removed the barrier to
one of the levels and continued his X
plorations. Apparently. he says. these
underground passages were not only a
mine, but also a place OF refuge. He
believes they were eXcaNated by a pco-
pie similar to those who once lived
much farther south. He exhibits uten-

Propoted Amendment Will
Cause Hays Ketire-

Washington, Dec. l2.-The senate
spent almost five hours yesterday IN
executive session Considering the Hay
Pauncefote treaty.
Senator Morgan took issue with Sen
clause of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty,
claiming that it applied to Great Brit
aims right to fortify the Nicaragua
canal itself.
Senator Teller replied at some
length. asserting that the provision was
of more general import, as. he said,
any one could ascertain for himself
by reading President Buahanan's views
upon the subject when he was minister
to England. The declaration then
made showed plainly, he said. that
England had attempted to extend her
rights beyond the immediate vicinity
Of he canal. enator Teller repeated
his declaration that the United States
should construct the canal, II ia all, re-
gardless of the British position, and
without going through the Formally
of ratifying the pending treaty.
During the day speeches We're made
by Senators Money, Stewart, Frye and
others. Senator Stewart announced
that he was for the treaty without
amendment. and Senator Money that
he was against the treaty i'll any form.
He wanted the canal bill as much as
IL senator could. he said. but nc con-
sidered the spending treaty little less
han an insult to the intelligence of
the American people. He had no doubt
that If prope diplomatic efforts should
be made it would be possible to Sc
cure the complete ahrogation of the
Clayton Bulwer treaty, and that was
what he wanted. That convention, he
said, was contrary to the wishes of the
people of the United States and they
could be satisfied only by definitely
erasing it once aud forever. There
also should be new conventions be-
tween the United States and both Nj
caragua and Costa Rica, giving abso-
Lutte control of the waterway to this
country.
Thep ossibilityo of Secretary Hays res
ignation in case the foreign relations
committee amendment to the treaty
should prevail having been alluded to.
Senator Frye said he was in q position
to make official denial of that report.
The secretary had no such Intention.

Norable to the Hay-Paunoefote treaty.

of vexation in connection with the ca
nal subject, and he unprecedented that 1t
would continue to he such until that
portion of 1t relating to the canal,
should be disposed of. He was salts
