PROSPECTING ALL OVER RESERVATION
rFrom a star Correspondent


WASHINGTON, oct 27-(special Tele-
gram l-Congressma Frank Mondelrs mis-
sion to Washington at this time is to enter
protest with the secretary of the interior
against the permission which seems TO have
been granted Asmus Boysen OF Council
Bluffs to do a great deal Of preliminary
prospecting upon the Wind River Indian
reservation In wyoming prior to the date
set for its opening, June Is, 1906.
Under the law passed by congress open
ing this reservation Boysen was allowed to
select $40 acres in lieu OF certain conces-
sions he secured from the Shoshone Indians
residing on the reservation. 1t is con-
tended, however, that he is not giveR a
broad right 70 prospect all over the reser-
walton, to ascertain in advance OF the sur
veys now being made by the government
just where to choose his location. The COM
plant seems not so much to be that Boysen
is prospecting about endeavoring to locate
| his lieu section OF GAO acres as it is that he
is thus gathering valuable advance infor-
nation as to the character Of the mineral
| deposits of the country which outsiders
| fear he will turn to an advantage detri-
| mental TO them. They object to his secur-
| ing this prior information, and upon this
| Representative Mondell has lodged COM
! plant With the secretary Of the interior.
! Under an order of the secretary of the in
terror, which il complained Of, it appears
| that Mr.. Boysen was given permission to
prospect over some 175,0OO acres of the res
| ervation to be opened in June next. Mr..
| Boysen claims not only his right to pros
| pect over the 175,oo0 acres allowed by the
| secretary's order, but is of the opinion that
he has the right to prospect over the entire
| territory to be opened in order to select
the most advantageous 64O-acre tract that
he may be able to find.
The country is said to be rich In copper
The controversy as between Boysen, backed
by Secretary Shaw on one side and Secre-
| tary Hitchcock on the other is said to have
waxed warm, and a considerable number OF
rather strong letters have passed. Now
| comes Representative Mondel to add a
little fuel to the controversy which ha!
been smoldering and the old fight of Boy
sen, who holds certain concessions by RICH
from the Indians, together with this riga
under the bill opening the shoshone reser
walton, which was threshed out during tn,
last congress, bids fair to cause a consid
cradle ruction before the Wind River res
ervation is finally opened.

CHILEANS SEIZE A DERELICT
German Sailors Fail 10 Recover
valuable Ship once Adam
doned by Them.

SAN FRANCISCO Oct. a.--The Kosmos
steamer NelSo, arriving yesterday from the
south, brought the report that the German
ship Steinbeck had been appropriated by
the Chileans. 1t was reported In dispatches
some weeks ago that the Steinbeck had
gone ashore at Valparaiso.
It appears that the captain and crew
abandoned the vessel when 1t seemed TO be
beyond saving, and after standing by in
small boats for forty eight hours they went
ashore. A party of Chileans went out to
the vessel and took possession. Suisse
auently, when the Steinbeck seemed to be
safe, the crew attempted to so on board
again. Having taken possession of the
ship at some risk to themselves after II
had been abandoned, the Chileans refused
TO give It up and they were still in pos
session when the Neko left Valparaiso
The steinbeck has a valuable cargo on
board.
