MRS. GERHARD GIVEN $3.50
Also Handsome Residence in New
York Awarded as Alimony.

SIOUX FALLS, S. d.. Nov. 2-The
inroads into the bank account of
Fred Gebhard resulting from the di-
vorce proceedings recently conclud-
cd in this city are coming to light.

ty today that Mrs. Gebhard, in addi-
ton to being granted a decree of
separation from her husband, was al
lowed alimony in the sum of SlS5,-
900 and the handsome residence in
New York City, which the couple oc-
cupied up to the time Mrs. Gebhard
went to live with relatives and her
husband took quarters at the Wal
dorf Astoria. To this outlay must
be added the 81 900 allowed Mrs. Geb-
hard for costs, attorney fees and ex-
penses and the disbursements by
lived in Sioux Falls for the purpose
of establishing legal residence
During this time Gebhard lived at
the best hotel and entertained Law
ishly.
1t is said that an understanding as
to the award of alimony was reach
ed by the parties to the suit before
they came to Sioux Falls to obtain
a divorce. The story goes that they
agreed months ago to separate and
that at the same time Gebhard placed
in the hand of trustees in New York
the slS5.O00 the interest upon which

GRIEF IN ROYAL HOUSEHOLD.

LONDON, Nov. 2.-There Is keen
disappointment in royal circles over
the lukewarm reception by the popu-
lace to the Cornwalls. who returned
from their tour of the world yester-
day The cheering was half-hearted
and but little enthusiasm was shown
by the people. The reports of the
unbounded enthusiasm and innumer-
able expressions of loyalty throughout
the colonies visited by the future
king which have been published In the

now generally admitted that the Wis

paign the state at very low rate of
compensation.
The attempt in this bill is to create
railway court something like the one
enacted by the crazy republicans in
Kansas. The courts held that the legis-
lature had no right to confer judicial
powers except in the regular way.
While it is provided that either party
may appeal from this railway court to
the circuit court, it is expressly pro-
vided that when the appeal is taken to
the supreme court that such appeal
shall not operate to stay the judgment
of the circuit court. The beauty of this
provision is that the decision of the
supreme court would probably be use
less when it was obtained, because the
parties would have long since received
the benefits of the litigation
Among the benefits of the bill is a
provision that in case of a car famine
and there is more freight offered than
the companies can possibly handle, all
party has to do is to apply to the cir
cult court and get writ of mandamus
or some other kind of "damus," and
forthwith the railway company must
furnish sufficient cars whether they can
be obtained or not.
The people in this section of the state
will be especially interested. In man
ufacturing cities like Wausau, it will
absolutely prevent the railway COM
panies from giving special rates on raw
material for short distances to be used
in manufacturing plants.
In other parts of the state the bust
ness men are meeting to discuss and
oppose this bill as one of vital interest.
Our representatives in the legislature
ought either to oppose this measure
promptly or give such an explanation
to the citizens of this county as will
satisfy us that this bill will be a benefit
rather than injury to the county. 1t is
a well known fact that when a similar
bill was adopted few years ago in the
state of Iowa that the lumbermen of the
Wisconsin valley were practically ex-
cluded from the markets of that state.
