Standing Bear told Crook his indi-
vidual story. The great Indian fighter
knew the general history of the In
dians and was already indignant at
their treatment, but the treatment ac-
corded Standing Bear was too much
and even the stern warrior rebelled.
That night Crook came into Omaha
and had an all nights conference with
Tibbles, then an editorial writer on a
newspaper. A campaign of Indians
rights was mapped out and both men
started out the next day to carry out
their parts. Crook was to delay re
turning the Indians to Indian Terri
tory until a writ of habeas corpus
could be asked for from the United
States court on the grounds that the
constitution, in the fourteenth amend
ment guaranteed to all persons borr
in the United States equal protection
of the law.

TO BREAK UP PRACTICE
PE0NAGE IN THE SOUTH WILL
NOT BE TOLERATED.

A large number Of peonage cases In the
south are under investigation by the De-
partment of Justice through it's various
branches In most instances United States
attorneys are making the Investigations and
bringing indictments, but in some instances
special agents Of the department are at
work running down facts and evidence
There are complaints from Florida, Geor-
gia and nearly every other southern state
that negroes are being held in a state Of
servitude without legal reasons. In Florida.
North Carolina and elsewhere the charge is
made that Italians have been subjected to
the same treatment. A recent case in North
Carolina would probably have resulted in
prosecutions, but the Italians were bought
off, and got away before they could be held
as witnesses.
An important trial is now In progress at
Cape Girardeau, Mo-. where fourteen or fif-
teen negroes, including several former SOL
diers in the United States army, were held
in a state of servitude for nearly year,
being threatened with death or arrest IL
they attempted to escape.
The Department of Justice proposes to
follow all complaints that appear to be well
founded and to bring prosecutions until the
practice Is broken up in the south and else
where it may exist.

BE WILL TRY AGAIN
SENATOR LA TOILETTE WILL
MAKE RENEWED EFFORTS.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
MADISON, Wis, September 13-The first
attempt of Senator La Toilette to regain his
footing in Wisconsin politics, which rec ived
a severe jar in the recent primary election
by the nomination of Governor Davidson
overwhelmingly against Speaker Lenroot,
will be in the platform convention in Madi-
son, September 25. This convention will be
composed of the men nominated for state
offices and the nominees for seats in the
legislature; also the senators who hold over
for another session. The convention will
have membership of 1877.
Senator La Toilette will attempt to secure
the adoption Of platform, not only con-
tanning substantial vindication of his course
in state and national affairs, but adyocat-
ing the enactment Of state laws for which
the Senator and his defeated gubernatorial
candidate argued in the recent primary cam
paign. While the vote at the primary
election was decisively against Lenroot,
there were gains made by the La Toilette
faction in the nominations made in various
legislative districts. and as each candidate,
whether for governor or member of the as
sembly has one vote in the platform con.
vention, it Is easily possible that the La
Toilette people may control However,
Governor Davidson and Chairman w d.
Connor are expected to fight against any
attempt Of Senator La Toilette to domina-
ton.

Drunkenness Of Officers.
In a general chapter on drunkenness Gen.
Corbin says:
ut Is gratifying to note that there is less
drinking and drunkenness among the Of
ficers of the army today than in past years.
My forty-five years experience in the army
convinces me that the 3Sth Article Of War,
which reads as follows: ANY officer who
Is found drunk on his guard. party or other
duty shall be dismissed from the service
should be amended to read: Any officer
who Is found drunk shall be dismissed from
the service
Drunkenness among officers should be
entirely eliminated. The officers RESPONSE
bility when on a status of duty has long
been recognized in this respect Proper re-
spect for his position as officer, the
healthy example set for the enlisted men
intrusted to his care, and the good opinion
of his fellow-citizens are. am glad to say.
sufficient reasons for the great majority
of the officers of today. The few that
transgress and bring odium upon the good
name of the service should no longer be
tolerated
1.-The article Of war. as at present worded,
has left an impression, especially among
young officers in the army, that in order to
constitute cognizable military offense
drunkenness on the part OF an officer must
be on duty; whereas drunkenness on the
part of the enlisted man at any time is
SO considered. AS a case in point, a SOL
der of over five years service who de-
serted by reason of drunkenness was SEN
fenced to two and one-half years at the
military prison. A commissioned officer at
the same post, absent without leave for
twenty days, due to the same cause, but for
the Intervention of the division commander
would have escaped trial"

PRINCE ALBRIGHT DEAD
HE WAS THE RICHEST PRINCE IN

BERLIN. September 13.-Albrecht prince
Of Prussia, regent of the duchy of Bruins
wick, and the richest prince In Germany,
died today. Death followed stroke OF
apoplexy.
Frederick Wilhelm Nicholas Albrecht,
prince Of Prussia, was created regent OF
the duchy of Brunswick October 21, 1885.
The appointment was made by special
act of the NATIONAL assembly and termi-
mated dispute in regard to the title to
the crown which had existed since the
year previous, when Duke Wilhelm, the
last of the house of Brunswick Lunnen-
bourg died. and upon his death the head
of the house of Hanover had taken the
duchy over by patent. The Prussian crown
disputed the rights which the house of
Hanover claimed, and the upshot was that
Prince Albrecht was agreed upon as
regent to rule the country.
He was born in Berlin May 8. 1887. and
was a son of Prince Albrecht of Prussia
and the Princess Marianne of the Meth
erlandS.
