PINNEY TO STAY IN PRISON.
Judge Garland Denies Writ of Halna,
CQrnuS


Judge Garland, of the United States
court at Sioux Falls, Tuesday denied
an application for a writ of habeas
corpus in the case of Earle b. Pinnev
formerly a prominent resident az
North Dakota, who sought to secure
his release from the Sioux Falls peni-
Tertiary. Pinney was formerly a
United States commissioner, with
headquarters at Minot n. D. He is
serving term of ten years in the pen
itentiary in Sioux Falls for embezzle
ment committed while he was feder-
al commissioner. The Nembezzlement
consisted Of converting to his own use
sums aggregating something over
$4,000 which had been placed in his
hands by homesteaders for payment
to the receiver of the United States
land office at Minot
The point was raised in behalf of
Pinney that the sums mentioned We're
placed in his hands as an individual.
and not in his official capacity as Unit
ed States commissioner, and that he
therefore was not liable to the federal
government for the disposition made
of the money. In the application for a
writ of habeas corpus it was set forth
that the Indictment upon which Pin
ney was convicted was illegal and did
not contain facts sufficient to cOnsti-
tute crime against any of Che laws of
the United States.

Increase Practically Decided by Com

A New York dispatch says: Driven
soon to pay out between $4,000 and
5000, 900 to San Francisco policy
holders, nearly all the smaller insur-
ance companies of New York and
many of the greater companies have
practically decided to advance tLeir
rates from 90 to rs per cent. The in
crease is not only on San Francisco
property, but on realty in the longest
ed sections of this city, Chicago Bos-
ton, Philadelphia, st. Louis and all
the greater cities of the country. Pres
ident Evans, of the Continental COM

A public meeting was held at Huron
to raise funds for the aid of San
Francisco sufferers. Nearly $1,000
was pledged by private citizens; the
city will give 500, and the county will
be asked to contribute, through the
board of supervisors. $1,000; the Elks
gave 500, and similar sum will be
voted by the Masonic fraternity, while
the Odd Fellows and other orders will
come UP with liberal sums. 1t is
thought that $4,000 will soon be ready
to transmit to the stricken city from
Huron.

WOLF BOUNTY CLAIMS.
Dakota Unlikely to Pay More Than
so Cents ON the Dollar.

A Pierre special says: The wolf
bounty claims which have been filed
with the state auditor up to the pres
ent date amount to $8,1S1, leaving
less than thousand dollars in the
fund to meet the claims for the next
two months, when they are heavier
than for any other time of the year.
1t is apparent that the claims for this
year will have to be apportioned pro
rata, as they have in past years, with
but $4,000 available. Last year only
a little over so cents on the dollar
was paid, while this year the chances
are that the apportionment will go
almost if not fully as low.

FLOWED UP POCKETBOOK
Farmer Receivers S242 Lost in Field a
Year Ago.

Benjamin Loers, farmer living in
Turner County, while engaged in
blowing in one of his fields year
ago lost pocketbook containing
the sum of $242 in cash. A careful
search was made, but without success,
and he long since abandoned all hope
of ever recovering the money.
The other day while again engaged
in blowing in the field in which he lost
the pocketbook year ago his pillow
turned up the missing pocketbook. An
examination of the contents disclosed
that the bank notes were badly rotted,
but practically all of them We're in
condition to be identified.
They have now been forwarded to
the proper bureau in the treasury de-
partment at Washington to be identi-
fed and replaced by new bills.

The house concurred in the senate

as much for the Chinese as any 9TH

Monday he made that point plain.
