LWAUK[E TO BUILD
FROM SIOUX FALLS
May Parallel Trae ks of Newly
Constructed South Dakota
Central
Special to The Globe

Special TO The Globe
SIOUX FALLS. S. D., April 24-An
interesting rumor is i'm circulation in
some quarters in regard to the proba-
bility that the Milwaukee will parallel
the new line of the South Dakota Cen
ual, the independent concern which is
engaged in constructing a railroad
from Sioux Falls TO the territory north
west of this city.
The new road was last fall complet-
ed TO Cotton. and men are now In the
held with the object of continuing the
line either TO Madison or Wentworth,
both OF which towns are situated on
the Milwaukee railroad north of Sioux
Falls.
There Is some doubt as to which
town will be the objective Of the South
Dakota Central. but il is said that no
matter TO which town the new line is
constructed, the Milwaukee will build
parallel line from Sioux Falls. The
new road extends through a territory
claimed as within the field of opera
tions of the Milwaukee, and 1t is known
that the relations between the two
companies have not been of a very cor
dial nature since the new company
definitely decided to construct a line
north from Sioux Falls.

GOES AROUND HORN
Dakota VIII Follow Route of
Steamship Minnesota

The Dakota. loaded with a general
cargo, has sailed from New York, and
contrary to former announcements, will
go around the South American contf-
nent instead of the African headlands,
as planned. The ship takes out more
freight than the Minnesota, but the
owners expect that her maiden voyage
will be accomplished in quicker time
than that made by her sister, the Min
nesota, which is now loading for her
second trip out of Seattle.
The Dakota, according TO her loaded
measurements. is eighteen tons heavier
than the Minnesota, and is a shade
faster in a seaway. This makes the
monster not only the largest, but also
the fastest big freighter afioat.
The Minnesota will leave her anchor

COLLEGE BOYS LIFE
WORTHLESS IN LAW
Action Based on Killing of Student
Dismissed on Motion

BLOOMINGTON, ILL.,, April PA
unique point in a damage suit has
been brought out by a decision of
Judge Wright in the Champaign county
court. Last fall a railroad dining car
was derailed and Ralph o. Roberts, a
student of the University of Illinois
was killed. He was a prominent ath-
lete. and the accident attracted consid-
cradle attention. His administrator
brought suit for $4,000.
The defendants attorney moved that
the suit be dismissed on the plea that
the plaintiff had not introduced evil
dence to show that any person was
depending upon Roberts for support,
and that, being a college man, he real
ly was an expense TO his parents dur
ing that period of life. The judge de-
cides that the point is well taken and
has dismissed the case. An appeal will
be taken.

insurance Companies Refuse
to Pay Claim

Two of the accident insurance COM
panies in which Miss Lima Christian
son, who was shot and killed last De-
cember by Frederick G.. Richmond, was
insured are resisting the collection of
the face of the policies on the ground
that the killing of Miss Christianson on
the street was a premeditated murder
and not an accident. One of the COM
panies has settled for half the face of
the policy, but the other two are re-
sisting the attempt to collect from
them.
In reply filed yesterday il is alleged
that Richmond at the time of the
shooting was a maniac and therefore
the killing Of the woman was not a
premeditated act. The court will be
asked to pass upon some knotty ques-
tions involving accident insurance.

Minneapolis some months ago for the
purpose of operating a detective
agency, was held to the grand jury
yesterday. 1t is alleged by the prose-
cutors that he sought to teach young
men the trade of a detective. He
would sell a man an interest in the
agency and employ him on a salary,
so goes the story, and after a certain
length of time he would inform the ap-
plicant for a Sherlock Holmes job that
he was not fitted for the place, but his
interest in the concern would be pro-
tccted.
The man who made the complaint
said he had invested 5000 and had
been assigned to the work of counting
the persons who entered the Metro
politan theater at night. Several COM
paints have been made at police head
quarters and yesterday Fortwangler
