ROSEBUD MEASURE.
South Dakota Delegation Will Try t.
Pass Measure, Even If Presi-
dant Na%os. H. 4-


Washington. D. c., March s1.-The South
Dakota senator's. believing that they have
a legislative duty to perform, AVE de-
cided to bring about the passage of the
Rosebud bill. They realize also that the
president has an executive duty to per-
form, and should Mr.. Roosevelt decide to
veto the bill opening the Rosebud reserva-
ton to settlement the responsibility for
such action will be with the president.
The South Dakotans nave ~endeavored to
arrive at a compromise with the presi-
dent, but the compromise insisted upon by
the chief executive contemplates an In
crease in the price to be paid for the land.
This the delegation cannot agree to, be-
lieving that the price in the bill still is
too high, although in the spirit of COM
promise they acquiesced In raising the
price to s. per acre.
While the members of the delegation
feel keenly the position in which they are
placed. they say they owe 1t to them
selves and to their constituents to pass the
bill in its present form, allowing the re-
sponsibility of veto to rest where it be-
longs.
Should the bill pass, and become a law
1T would be 80 days at least before the
reservation would be thrown open to set
Element, the presidents proclamation nav
ing to run sixty days. Advices from South
Dakota state that the tide of emigration
has drifted away from the reservation,
and that interest in the opening of the
Rosebud is decreasing because Of the OBJ
stacies that have been thrown in the way.

some patrons ten or fifteen years, tn !.
order has gone forth to vacate, and the
boarders have been forced to buy
homes or pay enormous rentals or
boarding house prices in the West
End.
The Worlds Fair management pro-
poses to have an agreement with the
hotels by which the rates will not be
raised for the fair period, but the
agreement can be manipulated to meet
the plans of the hotel men.
For instance, rooms that are now
$3.50 a day will accommodate two or
three guests, and each guest will pay
the full price of the room. Ten dol
lars a room is the average Worlds
Fair rate.
The West End houses have ordered
their regular boarders to get out be-
fore the fair opens Boarding houses
have increased their rates, and land
lords have sent up rentals from SO to
200 per cent. Several tenants on La
clede avenue are now paying $50 for
eight and nine room houses that have
been renting for $35 and $40.

Union, Mo-, March 29.-While the
body of George Collins was dangling on
the scatfold yesterday in expiration for
his share in the killing of Detective

parently unconcerned. He had wept
bitterly when Collins was executed two
hours before.
Rudolph's counsel at once began

to ST. Louis for safe keeping.
Mrs. Charles j. Schumacher, widow
of the detective, was In the room
when the verdict was announced. She
yefrained from talking Of the execution

ately set May 10 as the date for the ex-
ecution. Rudolph was Immediately

Collins just before the execution yester-
day, William Rudolph tonight wrote a
letter to Collins sister, Mrs. Bella
Waite, at Waterbury, Conn.

alton bill, the enate committee reported
1t last night, and 1t will be taken up Ill
the senate today. The exact amount of
the increase made can not be given.
though it is said the bill will carry not
more than s1.000,000 over the bill as passed
by the house, except for an emergency
measure incorporated in the bill. The
house bill provides for the rental of the
Pennsylvania railroad site in New York
city for postoffice purposes, but the sem
ate committee decided hat it would be
better business policy to buy the site.
Therefore an appropriation of 81, 900, 1000 Is
made for that purpose.
Among the important amendments to
the bill are the following:
The salaries of rural free delivery car
'riers are liked at 500 a year and the car
iriers are permitted to carry merchandise
for hire and receive subscriptions for and
deliver newspapers me periodicals so long
as this occupation does not interfere with

for the ~re-transfer of the free delivery
