OLD MURDER Is REVEALED.
Body Of Englishman Unearthed by
Coyotes in South Dakota.

Sioux Falls, S. d., March IA mys.
terry which the authorities are endeav-
oring to solve is as to who was re-
sponsible for the death of Hy Young,
an Englishman with high connections
in England, whose remains were found
near the ranch established by him in
Butte county.
Young several years ago arrived in
Butte county with a small herd OF
horses, which he ranged along Grand
river and in the breaks" back from
that stream. AS a motive for his as
sassination it is said that he became
possessed of information which would
cause trouble to parties in that re-
'gion il divulged to the authorities. 1t
has been learned that shortly before
the disappearance of Young from the
n~eighborhOod some of these parties
formed a posse with the intention Of
proceeding to Young's home and kill
ing him.
The crime would never have been
revealed had not coyotes been drawn
to the spot and partially uncovered
the skeleton, thus assisting justice in
the effort 10 avenge what was n Of
the most cold-blooded murders in the
history of South Dakota.

Pitched Battle With Indian Outlaws
ResuIts Fatally TO Officers.

Vinita, l T., March 13.-OEe hun
dred armed men have gone into the
Cherokee country in pursuit of the
Wickliffe band OF Indian outlaws, who
on Sunday afternoon, thirty-one miles
southeast Of Vinita, ambushed a Unit
ed States marshal's posse of six men,
killing one and wounding another.
The dead man Is Deputy Sheriff /. l..
Gilstrap, the wounded man Dick Ter.
ry, p~osselnan, shot through the body,
not fatally. Reports of the fight,
which took place in the settlement Of
the Nighthawk band Of Cherokee In
dams, fullbloods who refuse allot-
ments, live by hunting n speak lit
tie E~nglish-are conflicting. The first
report brought in by a surviving
posseman, was that three of his COM
rades were killed and that only the
three Wickliffe brothers were engaged
on the other side. A later report is
that eleven Indians resisted the posse.
The Wickliffes killed Deputy Mar
shall Vier about a year and a half ago
and the officers have been on their
trail ever since. A posse Of six men,
who were pursuing the outlaws, over
took them and a hot fight ensued.

TO SIMPLIFY ENGLISH SPELLING.
Board Contains Thirty Members and
Carneuie Will Bear Expense.

New York, March 12.-Announce-
ment was made that an organization,
including prominent men of affairs as
well as leading men of letters, has
been formed to urge the simplification
of English spelling. This new body
Is called the simplifed spelling board.
1t will appeal to all who for educa-
tional or practical reasons wish to
make English spelling easier to ac'
quire. Andrew Carnegie has gener.
ously undertaken to bear the expense
Of the organization. Mr.. Carnegie has
long been convinced that English
might be made the world language
of the future, and thus n of the in
~fluences leading to universal peace,
and he believes that the chief OBJ.
stacle to its speedy adoption is to be
found in it's contradictory and diff.
cult spelling. The board contains
thirty members and the lame of Chan
cellor Andrews of Nebraska heads the
list.

VICTORY FOR CHICAGO.
Supreme Court Hands Down Decision
in Street Car Franchise Case.

W SSSSI S"t SoSSs
Chicago, March 13.-By the decision
of the United States supreme court just
handed down the city of Chicago OBJ
tains almost complete control of the
local traction situation. The decision
sustains the acts of the state legisia-
ture extending the life of the charters
OF the street railway companies TO
~ninety-nine years, but does not sus-
tain the contention of the companies
that contract rights which are limited
to fewer years than remain to the
charter life of the companies are also
extended. Contracts or ordinances Of
the city limiting the use of the streets
by the companies are upheld, and the
rights of The companies in the streets
are held to expire according to the eX-
pressed terms of the ordinances. In
its effect the decision leaves the Union
Traction company without any right
whatever, other than by sufferance, in
the streets of the north division of
the city.
1t leaves the Union Traction COM
pany in the west division without
rights excepting where the ordinances
contain a purchase clause.
1t leaves the Chicago City Railway
company, which operates all the
street car lines on the south side Of
the city, without right excepting where
their ordinances contain a purchase
clause.

BAD BLAZE AT LIBERTY.
Town Without Fire Protection Visited
by Fire Which DESTROYS Four Stores.


Beatrice, Neb., March 13.-The most
destructive fire in the history of Lib
erty, this county, wiped out four OF
the leading business houses of the
town, entailing a loss estimated at
between 100000 and $35, 900.
The fire was discovered in the rear
Of Goldberg's department store. AS
the town is without means of fire pro.
lection the flames spread rapidly and
quiaRly communicated to Moore's drug
store. This place was consumed in a
short time and the flames then spread
to Bawhay's hardware and furniture
store and Corbin's large department
store. Before these places caught fire
the whole town turned out to fight the
flames, but the intense cold made fire
fighting extremely difficult. The en-
tire block was destroyed before the
flames were %subdued and the citizens
of the town had the hardest kind OF
work to prevent the fire from spread
ing to other parts of the business dis
trict. The losses are estimated as fol-
lows: Corbin, 10000; Moore, $4,000;
Goldberg, $4,000; Bawhay, 81 1000.
About half the loss is covered by in
surance.
