MANY HAVE COME.
Seventy Thousand People Come Into
the Northwest Since Jan. I.

Seventy Thousand People Come Into
the Northwest Since Jan. I.
The statement is made that 10000 i'm
migrants have been brought into the
Dakotas and the Northwest this year.
1t goes without saying that probably
30 per cent OF these have come up into
the Dakotas, and that OF the 90 per cent
that South Dakota has secured rather
more than her fair share. The northern
counties of the state alone have secured
$1,000 people over the Milwaukee road
alone. and the other railroads have
brought in enough to raise the total for
those counties to 10000. The food tide
will be slightly decreased during the
crop season. but nothing is safer bet
than that the coming fall and winter
will see a rush to South Dakota that
has never before been equaled. The
opening OF the Rosebud reservation
when the date is announced-will cause
rush similar to that in Oklahoma.
The statement given out last week that
South Dakota will plant u per cent
more corn in 1902 than in 1901, is be-
lieved to be under rather than above
the facts.

Miner County.
A telegram from f. w. Holton's crew
of artesian well drillers, at work near
Carthage, in Miner county, says fine
flow of water has been reached on the
Kellam & Ward farm at depth of $50
feet. This dispels the theory that ar
tesian wells cannot be had in that To-
cality because of the granite that over
lies the artesian basin. The flow is
strong and the water of good quality.
Other wells will be sunk in the same To-
calitY.

HIUAKO INDIANS IN ALASKA ARE
COMMITTING DEPREDA-
TONS.

Seattle, Wash, Dec. ia special
to the Times from Dawson says:
Keen excitement and apprehension
prevail at White Horse and various
points along the line of the new gov
eminent trail over the report that a
band of Hiuako Indians has taken the
warpath in the region between the
Little Salmon and Petty rivers. A
store is reported to have been looted
and burned, the storekeeper killed.
and another fatally injured. The Lit
tie Salmon Indians are said to be
panic-stricken over the outbreak of
the hostile tribe and are sending their
squaws and children to the police de-
tachment at Tanalus, near the Yukon
crossing, for projections.
Maj. Cuthbert has been fully ap-
praised of the situation by wire. He
has issued an order mobilizing the
men at his command and says that if
a confirmation of the
News of the Outbreak
shall be received he will leave for
Selkirk Immediately with fifty men.
It Is stated that $50 to 200 Indians are
In the hostile parties, headed by two
well known chiefs. At last accounts
they were holding a wal dance and
had worked themselves into a murder
Ous frenzy.
Trouble with the Indians in the re-
gion between the Little Salmon and
the Petty has been expected for a long
time. A motive for the outbreak in
furnished by the hanging of three of
their number in 1899 for the murder of
q ~prospector on the little Salmon. The
execution took place at Dawson at the
locol barracks.
While Maj. Cuthbert is rather re.
ticent as regards the details of the
trouble, it is known that the first news
OF the reported uprising and murder
reached here yesterday morning from
White Horse. A wire was received
from Capt. Horrigan stating that word
had been received there of the out.

FINANCIAL SITUATION lMMERo'
URABLY RELIEVED BY
LIQUIDATION.

New York, Dec. II. = A member OF
The firm of J. P. Morgan & Co. said
yesterday: &
1.-THE financial situation has been i'm
measurably relieved by the recent
liquidation. In Mr.. Morgan's opinion,
and in my opinion, the worst is now
over. The situation is much clearer,
and we should from this time on nave
an improving market"
This was the dominant tone in Wall
street circles. 1t was shared by many
who believed that the emergency
squeeze in the monetary situation has
now passed the urgent state.
Confidence was completely restored
yesterday by the announcement that
a number of banks in this city and j.
P. Morgan & Co.
Have Formed a Pool
Of $50 O0, 900 to lend in the money
market in the event OF actual emcrg,
ency. The following will manage the
pool: J. p. Morgan, George F. Baker,
president of the First National bank,
and James Stillman, president OF the
National City bank.
Following the precedent established
by the late F. d. Happen, who man
aged such pools in similar cases, the
money will be put out "at the market
in unlimited amounts. In his way the
interest rate will be kept down to the
legal rate, or lower, if 1t is considered
necessary. This measure is really a
protective n and it is not apprehend-
ed that any of the money will be actu-
ally needed. 1t will be put out, how
ever,
Should Occasion Arise.
The protective measures agreed
upon by the banks had the effect Of
checking a dangerous looking decline
in the stock market, and the market
closed tranquil and rather dull. The
undertone at the last vas firm and the
losses of the earlier part of the day
generally were recovered. The state
ment was made that no fears yer
entertained of the present situation,
and that the formation of the protec-
tive pool was only a precautionary
measure, and probably no action
would be required on the part of it's
members in the way of supplying the
funds to the market. While the knowl-
edge of the steps taken by the ruling
powers in the financial world induced
a feeling of great relief in all quar-
tiers, the belief was not disguised that
the pool was an emergency measure,
not differing in kind or degree from
those adopted in other periods of crisis
in Wall street.

~ Resume of the Weeks
Proceedings.
In the Senate,

Washington, Dec. 10. - The senate
devoted most of the day to the immi-
grafton bill and adopted a number Of
amendments. There was considerable
discussion of an amendment offered by
Mr.. Burton of Kansas to admit Chi
nese laborers to Hawaii. 1t met with
considerable opposition and finally was
laid on the table. The provision in the
bill prohibiting the sale Of liquor in
the capitol building created some
criticism of the house for putting it in
the bill, but the provision vas not
stricken out. During the day the
military bill was discussed. 1t will be
taken up again on Thursday.
In the House.
After debating the London dock
charge bill for almost four hours the
house chopped its head off by strik-
ing out the enacting clause. This
killed the bill. The debate was spir-
tied on both sides and all day the
members were flooded with kilograms
respecting the bill. The withdrawal OF
the support of the lumber and meat
packing interests, which originally had
joined with the -four milling interests
in pressing the measure brought about
its defeat. The final vote vas 1873 to
129 in favor of the motion to strike out
the enacting clause.
