TROUBLE AT sHosHoNE.
Militia Needed to Maintain Order In
New Town.

Upon request Of Sheriff Slough Of Fremont
county. Wyo., Gov. Brooks ordered Com
pany B Of the State National Guard, sta
toned at Lander, to proceed to the Sho-
shone reservation to aid the sheriff in pre-
serving order on the new town site on the
reservation.
The difficulty on the reservation began
August IA, the day before the reservation
was opened for claim filing, when about 500
claimants gathered on the border of the res
ervation. On the morning of August is
every town lot on the new town site was
occupied by a squatter.
Indian Agent Wadsworth held that the
rule restricting general settlement on the
reservation homesteads until October Is ap-
piled to the town-ste settlements, and drove
the settlers off with federal troops. Com
missioner Of the General Land Office Rich
ards secured contrary ruling from the
Secretary of the Interior, and 1t Is said that
Wadsworth will withdraw troops, as his au-
thority on the reservation is ended,
Militia is expected to arrive on the scene
before the withdrawal of the federal troops
to preserve order. Some bad feeling exists
among squatters who have already been
driven off, and who may have difficulty in
regaining their claims, but no serious
trouble is expected.

Shot at five times by a policeman, her

the wealthy Chicago beef packer, yesterday
planned drastic action against the Rogers
Park policeman who riddled her automobile
with bullets AS a result of the shocks Mrs.
Armour is almost Frustrated and her little
daughter, Lolita, is i'll at Lake Forest.
The adventures of the party with po-
liceman were told yesterday by c. H. Huck,
the chauffeur, who was digging bullets
from the automobile at the Armour garage
in Chicago.
When we entered Rogers Park we were
driving slowly Huck said. Mrs. Armour
had asked that 1 be careful on account or
Miss Lolita. We had just turned into the
Ridge road when the policeman appeared.
Mrs. Armour sat on the first seat with me,
and in the rear were Miss Lolita, MISS
Biller, her nurse, and a woman whom L did
not know. The policeman ordered US to
stop, calling out that we were violating the
speed law. I denied 1t, for we were going
so slowly that we could keep up. a running
conversation with him. Then he drew re-
volver and began to wave it. stopped the
car and as he came up he began to shoot.
He fired five shots. Here are the bullets
now" and Huck pointed to the riddled ton

J. Ogden Armour is thoroughly aroused
over the outrage and said yesterday he
would push the case to the Limit. Huck says
that after the encounter with the first po-
liceman he hurried through Evanston be-
cause of the nervous condition Of the
women.
The car in which the party were riding
was Mr.. Armours 4O-horse power Mercedes.

hold-up and the noise of the shots would
affect the child Lolita. whose health Is frall

CROWN LANDS FOR PEASANTS.
Cars Plan to Win Support of Russian
Peasantry.

An important series of conferences began
Wednesday night at the Peterhof, st. Pc
tersburg. on the question Of the immediate
distribution Of the crown lands and ap-
panages to the peasants, in an attempt to
find partial solution Of the agrarian ques-
ton by measurably appearing the land
hunger Of the peasantry.
The government has definitely decided to
proceed with the original plan outlined in
these dispatches August Z, for settling the
agrarian question, regardless of parlia-
ment, and go to the country upon the
issue at the coming election.
A member of the cabinet who partici-
pated in the Peterhof conferences stated
this afternoon that the agrarian ques-
ton is no longer open Within a fortnight
an imperial ukase will be issued directing
the agrarian commission to begin the dis
tribution of 100000 dessiatines "a dessia-
tine Is about two and half acres), be-
longing to the appanages, 100000 dessia-
tines belonging to the crowd, and 2,0O0,-
600 dessiatines of land offered to or pur-
chased through the peasants bank. Only
the forests and lands belonging to the
state, the preservation of which is con-
sidered necessary for the future agricul-
tural prosperity of the country, will be re-
served.
The transaction will be financed through
the peasants bank. Little cash will be
required. The landlords and other SELL
ers will be given marketable land scrip,
eventually redeemable by the peasant pur-
chasers in installment n04es designed to
meet the interest and amortization.
The emperor will not give the land of
the imperial family as free gift, but like
other landlords, he will accept scrip.
Moreover 1t Is believed that no parlia-
ment will ever dare to repeal this tempo
rary law. Nearly all the present restric-
tons upon the peasants, as a class, will
also be removed. This, in substance, is
the governments bold bid for the support
of the Russian peasant millions against
the propaganda Of the revolutionists.
1t is reported that a plan for convert
ing the Russian Imperial State Bank into
joint stock bank modelled after the Bank
of France, has been decided upon. 1t is
said that there will be a committee Of
control which will include representatives
Of the houses in France which helped to
float the Russian loans, of the Mendel-
sohns in Berlin and of the Rothschild inter-
ests
In the reorganization of the finances of
the government the new committee will
have control Of the 100 900 rubles gold
bullion reserve now in the control of the
imperial banks.
