MAY. GET TOGETHER
Question of Many Rudders Agitates
Chicago Yachtsmen.

Chicago, July Rehabilitation plans
submitted by the Upton cup seem like
ly to settle the arguments over the
double rudder question. The committee
has decided to ask the yachtsmen Of
Toledo, Detroit, Cleveland and Hamil-
ton, who expected to contest for the
premier yachting honors of the great
lakes, to submit the question to a dis
interested board of yachtsmen. This
proposition has been accepted by all
except the Detroit and Cleveland clubs
Cleveland will make formal answer
to the proposition on Monday. Detroit
has quit the contest entirely. Detroit
has passed rule barring double rudder
boats from it's cup contests. It has
shipped it's two Upton candidates, Ste.
Claire and Otsiketa, to Bay City for
the races and they will not be shipped
to Chicago under any circumstances.
It has been announced that rather
than make the Upton cup race merely
local affair the boats carrying the
Objectionable rudders may be with
drawn. The Columbia club is anxious
to have its race as representative as
possible, and it is hoped that the arbi-
tration board will arrive at decision
satisfactory to all. 50

NO TRACE OF SON
w. II. Dockstader Pays Boys Debts
and Will Forgive Him.

4 SIOUX, FALLS, $. DIT is now more than a
month since the disappearance Of Grant Dock
stader a well-known resident of the northern
part Of Minnehaha county and not the, slight
est trace of the missing man can be found.
His father w. H. Dockstader, is one of the
richest men in the county, and has made per,
sistent efforts to ascertai nthe whereabouts OF
his son. but without success.
The old man has just completed the work OF
paying claims against his son to the amount OF
about $29, 900, and expresses himself as willing
to let bygones be bygones If his son will return
and resume his place in the family circle. He
bears his financial loss phiosophically and states
that he would not mind that part OF the affair
if he could have his son back and settled dowI
to business as formerly. He expresses himself
as being quite hopeful that his boy will event
ually come back.
An effort will be made during the present
session of congress to secure an appropriation
of 100000 for the construction of addition
to the government building in this city. Tit
building was erected twelve years ago at
cost of $685. 900, and at that time was believed
to be large enough to answer all purposes fo
at least twenty years. The rapid growth o.
Sioux Falls, however, has resulted in the build
ing being declared too small.

was made when the Mexican war broke out. A
second trip was made in 1858 as far as West
Fort landing, known the world over now as
Kansas City. At that time however. the landing

MUST GET BIDS
Council Committees Cannot Purchase
Supplies in Open Market.

Notice was given to the council
committees on fire department and gas
yesterday that it is irregular to pur-
chase supplies in excess of 800 with

customary to give authority to heads
Of departments to purchase supplies in
the open market when this could be
done to advantage, the aut hority in
the case of the fire chief being based
on resolution introduced by Alder
man A. S. Adams in 1908. This resolu-
ton, it is held, is now void, as no such
order is effective beyond the life of the
council which makes it. -. ..
The fire department buys oats in car
load lots, saving, according to Chief
J. R. Canterbury, about 8 cents a
