turned verdict of guilty. The Judge
announced that he would pronounce

that motion will then be made for n
new trial.
t. A. Haley was sentenced to nine
months in the penitentiary for eland

In the case of the state VS.. WI. Mo.

the jury and dismissed it.
Upon convening court Monday

sided, he and Judge McGee having
exchanged.
The Case of Drake, Isham & Co.. We.
Great Northern R'y Co., occupied
most of the time of the court to Tues.
day evening, when it went to the iurv.
The jury wrangled over the case until
! Wednesday night at 3 o'clock, standing
eleven to one in favor OF a verdict for
the plaintiff. They we're an exhausted
looking jury and the eleven evidently
could not convince the odd one that
he should agree with them. Hence
they were discharged. The plaintiff
had sued for $1,000. This was q case
in which plaintiff contended that a
shipment of horses over the Great
Northern R'y was damaged during a
severe storm because of unnecessary
delay after they had been ordered to
load the horses. 1t was tried here
once before, the jury at that time
awarding damages to the amount of
$500, from which an appeal was taken.
Court adjourned Wednesday night
to Dec. 90.

NOTES FROM WASHINGTON.

Burke of South Dakota has the same
assignments as last year, Indian affairs
and Interstate and foreign commerce.
Martin of the same state also has the
same places as last year, public build.
ings and grounds, public lands, and
expenditures in the department of
justice.
S 'nator Gamble today introduced a
bill ill the senate and Representative
Burke duplicate in the house pro-
vidlng for the authorization of the
sale of the western portion of the low
er Brule Indian reservation in South
Dakota. The territory thus sought to
be opened to white settlement com.
prises approximately 56,560 acres.
This bill was considered during the
Fifty eighth congress.
Representative Martin has been in
conference with the board of mana
gers of the National Soldiers Home.
now in session here, relative to pro-
visions for the Hot Springs home for
next year. 1t has been determined to
ask for SloOOOO for maintainance and
$4,000 for roads, etc, which will COM
plete actual construction of the build
ing and work on the grounds. MIR.
Martin will ask for Sc, 800 for the CON
struction of fences, waterworks, roads
and other improvements at Wind
Cave National Park. The project for
the construction of road from Hot
Springs to the park will not be pressed
this year.
Capt. Seth Bullock, who arrived
last night from this west, called at the
| White House this morning and thank
ed the president for appointing him
United States marshal for South
Dakota 1t is said Capt Bullock was
in doubt for a time whether to permit
his presence to become Known, but
finally decided to register. Tonight
he is the guest of Mr. Loeb, secretary
to the president.
The question of the Endorsement of
Capt. Bullock for the marshalship
seems to be burning one. 1t is de-
clared iii one quarter that Senator
Gamble was the only member of the
delegation who filed an Endorsement
with the department. of justice.
Another story is that no Endorsements
at all were filed in writing. the presi-
dent having intimated that this was a
sort of personal matter aud that he
understood the situation fully. thus
rendering Endorsements unnecessary.
1t is said that when tae delegation
learned that the president proposed to
appoint Capl. Bullock they took occa-
sioa to indicate that such action
would not be Objectionable to them.
Capt. Bullock says he looks with
favor upon the candidacy of Congress-
man Martin for the senate. 1t is even
suggested that Bullock will probably
say few kind words in favor of his
townsman, Congressman Martin, il
the president makes and opening.

Congressman Martin Has Il Bill that
Should Effectively Curb NIonopolies.
A Washington report of the eth
says:
"An important measure, aimed at
monopolies in food, and in effect bill
to aid in the enforcement of antitrust
laws, is fathered by Representative
Martin of South Dakota, the author of
the resolution which resulted in the pre-.
sent proce edings against the so-called
beef trust.
Representative Martin is of the
opinion that with few exceptions pres
sent laws are adequate to curb objec-
tionable corporations, and he express
es the belief that if corporations, joint
stock companies aud other associa-
tions engaged in interstate commerce
in food supplies were required to oper-
ate under federal license on fran
chise, such license or franchise to be
revoked in the event of violation of
law, the problem now confronting the
national legislature and the admins.
tration,would be simplitied.
"His bill provides that corporations,
joint stock companies, and other as
sociations engaging in interstate and
foreign commerce in cattle, sheep,
swine, dressed meats, meat products,
poultry and poultry products, dairy
products, coal, oil and other food
supplies, shall first obtain license or
franchise from the secretary of COM
merce and labor; that before the is
suance of such license or franchise
an affirmative showing shall be made
to the satisfaction of the secretary of
commerce that the corporation or
company is not overcapitalized, that
it is not an unlawful trust or combi
nation conducting a business in vio-
lation of the statues of the United
States and that it has not entered into
any contract. combination or conspir-
acy in restraint of commerce or trade,
aud that it has not n monopoly nor is
seeking to monopolize any part of the
trade or commerce of the United
States.
''The bill provides that subsequent
violation of the present statues upon
the subject of unlawful restraint and
monopolies in interstate commerce
shall work forfeiture of license, and
it is made the duty of the attorney
general to prosecute such violations
aud oust such companies and corpor-
ations of their license or franchise
When such action has been taken
however, it does not prohibit the com
pany or persons involved from doing
business forever. Discretion is lodg
ed in the secretary of commerce or
this point.
Representative Martin has given 6
great deal of study during the past
year to the business of corporations
employed in handling foods. He SAYS
that abuses exist that should be rene

STOCK TRANSFERS

NEW YORK, June wall street

transfer tax, which went into opera
tion in accordance with the measure
passed by the last legislature. The
law operates in the same manner as
.hs federal tax IN war time. stamps
of various denominations being af-
fixed to all certificates Of stock trans
ferred, the denominations varying in
accordance with the value of the
certificates.
The brokers have not taken kindly
to the new law, as it was believed
at first that II would drive those
engaged in stock speculation to the
exchanges of Philadelphia. Boston
and other nearby cities. This initial
scare has largely died away now. and
though plans are going forward for
the opening of stock exchange across
the river in Jersey City, 1t is believed
that the majority of those prominent
in the street have decided that the
best and only thing to do in regard
to the tax is to grin and bear it,"

who was struggling In the river,
stricken with cramp. Miss Atwood
jumped from the boat and swan to
the rescue.
Smith had been carried by the cur

her eyes open under water, saw
Smiths body lodged in the timbers
of the float.
Although he weighs 200 pounds,

who was unconscious, first be taken
from the water, although she was on
