.RESCUES BOY FROM
HIS ERRING MOTHER
Mrs. Daisy Salmon, of Newark,
N. j., Ran Off With Her
Husbands Brother.
PosTMARk TOLD THE TALE
Attorney Scott of Sioux Falls Swallowed
the Couple and Finally Got the
Boy and Returned Him
to His Father,

Sioux Falls. S. D., March 31.-W. D.
Scott has returned from a journey Of
5000 miles undertaken to rescue a
young boy upon instructions of his
father from his clipping mother and her
alleged lover.
Mrs. Daisy I. Salmon, wife Of Jesse
r. Salmon, a prominent business mar
of Newark, N. j., disappeared some time
ago together with the 1~1-year-old son
of the couple. The husband was sus-
picious that all was not right between
his brother and his wife and kept a
close watch Of the broter.
One day a letter postnlarked Sioux
Falls. South Dakota" and the address
in the handwriting of the runaway wife
was found In his brothers letter box.
The next day the brother disappeared.
The husband then wired Mr.. Scott to
locate the clipping couple If possible. A
full description of the man, woman and
boy was given. and thy We're soon To-
Gated in this city living under assumed
names. A few days ago they purchased
tickets for Manila, Ia, where they
could go east or west. Mr.. Scott was
instructed to follow them and keep the
husband Informed Of their movements.
MI. Scott followed the couple to
Manila n discovered they had made
preparations to go westward the next
-morning. The father sent his tele-.
graphic instructions to get possession
of the boy at all hazards.
Mr.. Scott confronted the couple be-
fore their departure from Manila and
compelled them to surrender the boy to
him. The lad was then taken to New
ark'and delivered to his father, to whom
he announced that he was not all
pleased because he had been taken from
his mother and that he would rejoin
her at the first opportunity.
It was the intention of Mr.. Salmon
to remain here and secure a divorce,
but when her brother-in-law arrived
on the scene these plans were changed
and h guilty couple decided to go
further west.

The conflict will affect more thar 400, 600

Have Committed Other Murders.
Pierre, S. D., April lon account
OF the danger in crossing on the ice the
preliminary hearing in the case Of the
state VS.. William Kunneke, charged
With the murder Of Andrew Demler in
Stanley county, will not be held unsil
Saturday next.
The inquest ove the remains OF Dem
Ter was held at Fort Pierre yesterday.
The investigation showed a bullet hole
directly through his head and a shotgun
seund through his neck, the latter evil
IDENTITY having been fired near the VIC
tim, as the clothing showed powder
burns.
The verdict to the ~coroner's jury was
to; the effect that Demler came to his
death from said gunshot wounds, sup
posed to have been inflicted by Kun
neke.
A telegram was received In this city
yesterday from Boise, Idaho, stating
that William Kunneke was under sus-
plclon OF a murder in that city about
three years ago, when he suddenly left
that place.
An investigation OF the record of the
man William Kunneke in Jail here on
the charge of the murder of Andrew
Demler shows that he left Boise about
three years ago, going to Germany,
where he stayed but a short time, and
to this country, going first
to Spearflsh and coming from there to
his present ranch on Cottonwood creek.
The indications point to his being the
same man wanted in Idaho.
IT now appears that a mar named st.
Jeon. or st. John, who worked for Kun
neke disappeared about a year ago, but
SIS he had no relatives the matter was
soon forgotten, and no investigation
was made.

REDUCE THE TARIFF.
allison Says That Will Be Republican
Platform Next Year,

Washington, April lin the next
national campaign h tariff will be the
principal issue said Senator William
B. Allison last night. The democrats
Will attack the republican party or this
and the trust and money questions.
front on the tariff or Philippine ques-
ton, and Will contin:ae to enact legisla-
ton to solve the trust question.
There are all shades OF opinion re.
garding the tariff. Some people want
certain schedules of the tariff reduced.
While other do not want them touched
For instance, the shoe manufacturers
of New England want free hides.
while the cattle raisers of the west be-
lieve that it would be disastrous to
their interests to remove this duty.
Some schedules gre too high and
should be reduced. There is also a diff
ference Of opinion in the various sec
tons of the country as to whether the
entire tariff should be revised or
whether specific schedules should be
modified. 1t is impossible, so far in adj
vance of the meeting of the national re-
publican convention, to predict exactly
what the tariff plank will be.
Will Declare for Change.
In my opinion the party will de-
clare in favor Of changing the tariff to
meet changed conditions. That Is, if
today a high rate is necessary for pro-
lection Of a certain industry that rate
will be imposed, but if within a few
years the industry has thrived SO that
a high rate is not necessary the duty
should be reduced to meet changed
conditions.
1.-THE party will o depart from it's
principles of protection. A maximum
and minimum tariff is good If it could
be put into operation. Under such a
law the president would be directed to
impose the low duty on goods when a
foreign nation having a maximum and
minimum tariff admitted American
goods at the minimum rate.
Reciprocity is a beautiful theory,
but cannot be put into practice. The
instant it is proposed to reduc the duty
on any product by reciprocity the in
dustry objects. Where a number OF in
7ustries are affected they defeat the
treaties.
1T is impossible to secure ratifica-
ton of treaties because of the pressure
by interested industries. The same diff
fculty applies to maximum and mini
mum tariffs.
although the republican party will
be attacked on its trust record, I believe
it can receive the Endorsement of the
people for steps at the last congress to
control trusts. We have laid the foun-
dalton for future legislation"
