THOUSANDS FILE ON The ROSEBUD
Many Wait All Night in Driving Rain to Register
Good Order in Crowds at All Filing Places.

sons, 216 Of whom were women, reg.
istered at,the land office. Shortly af-
ter the registration closed tonight
there were no homesteaders waiting,
but during the night two more trains,
each reported crowded, will arrive,
and tomorrow morning another line
of I. 900 is expected.
None of the local people have regis
tered, and they will not until after the
visitors are through. The reports sent
from Bonesteel Of gambling are gross
ly exaggerated, and while gambling is
licensed, it is done in buildings.
The registration Offices expect from
two thousand to three thousand daily,
majority OF whom will return to their
homes the day following their arrival
here, as there is no delay whatever in
registering.
Filing by $500.
Twenty-Five hundred people regis
tered at Yankton yesterday for homes
on the Rosebud reservation. This was
the first day of registration and the
government registry Offices we're able
to handle the crowd without difficulty.
The crowd was extremely orderly and
not disturbance was reported The
applicants stood in line for blocks
waiting their turn to register. Elk
cursions brought 1000 more people
into town, and the number in the city
now is above 5000. All are being
/, housed and fed at the usual rates.
Aliens must have citizenship papers
with them in order to register. Many
come without them, and the clerk of
courts was swamped with applications
| for papers. Excursions from Eastern
points will reach this city tomorrow.
The crowds that will arrive are esti-
mated at a total of 10000 persons.
Big Crowd at Chamberlain.
With the big arrivals Wednesday
evening the influx of people for the
i Rosebud registration at Chamberlain
assumes more of an appearance of a
4 rush, and with the advices of depart
ure of specials from Eastern points to
reach here tomorrow it is certain that
from this time forward the number Of
| registrations at Chamberlain will be
of the first magnitude. Nearly one
thousand arrived to-day and tomorrow
will add fully fifteen hundred more
Large numbers of the arrivals are
looking over the country. 1t is an
large party leaves in the morning by
steamer to look mp lands. 1t is an
nounced to-day that Commissioner
Richards of the general land Office
will arrive in day or two to arrange
the details for the drawing, which viii
begin in this city on July rs. At pres
ent it looks as if the total registra
! tions at this point would surely ruI
from twenty to thirty thousand.

The government registration books
for entrement on the Rosebud Indian
reservation were opened at Bonesteel
Tuesday. A squad of BIG persons
waited through the night in driving
rain to be present when the registra-
ton Office opened. When Inspector
McPhaul opened the door Of the city
hall there were about 1900 persons
waiting to take their turns at the reg
istration desk.
Wet and steaming under the hot
sun, those who had stood the night
through in the line sat on the ground
and played cards and ate lunches
which they purchased from vendors
passing up and down the line.
]. S. Barnes of New York city was
the first man to be registered, having
taken his position at the hall door at
o'clock Monday afternoon.
At the Baptist church, where ladies
and old soldiers were registering only,
a corporal's guard of the men waited
through the night and were on duty
at sunrise The experiences they had
during the time of service made them
more oblivious to the storm of the
night than we're the younger genera
ton at the city hall. During the night
the veterans sat around on logs which
they had provided for that purpose
and again exchanged experiences of
the campaigns.
The women began coming as early
as 4 o'clock in the morning, and were
placed in line with the old soldiers,
who CALAMITY gave up their places to
| them. Miss Jennie Conway of Omaha
was the first to register at this place.
but at 8 o'clock there we're about fifty
| women in line and their ranks were
followed by about twenty-five old vet,
Grams. Only a few Philippine vet.
Grams were in line. 1--WE will register
the crowd like a whirlwind," said
Commissioners Richards. "Of course
others will take their places as each
train arrives, but we hope to keeT
ahead of the crowd, or at least to keer
even. am more than we'll pleased
/ with the arrangements to handle the
crowds and at the orderly condition
of every thing. The opening is a sue
cess in every way"
Special trains are bringing in ad
ditional hundreds of people to-day ant
tonight.
