TWO MEN CLAIM
SAME HOMESTEAD

Gregory, S. D., April 15.-When No.
S35 was called by Judge Witten in the
filings for Trip county lands. two
men stepped forth, and when the name
OF p. j. Laughlin was called both men
responded. Were they both from Chi
cago? They were. Both men were 5
feet 10 inches high, both weighed 200
pounds, and neither gave a street adj
dress. One was clearly entitled to file
under No. S35 and the other was not,
but which?
When asked where they registered
one said he registered at Dallas and
the other at Gregory. The n who
registered at Dallas won out because
the numbered registration slip was
sworn to at that place. The other
Laugblin has disappeared, and the be-
lief is that he was attempting a case
Of fraud, but this cannot be proven.
Judge Witten leaves.
Judge James Witten, who has been in
charge of the filing thus far, was
called to Washington yesterday and
will not return, as he Is assigned to
work in the preparation OF other draw
ings of land In the government service.
The register and receiver will have
charge of the department which Judge
Witten relinQulshes.

KANSAS CITY TO
BOOST MISSOURI

Kansas City, Mo, April 16.-Kansas
City will begin this week the organi-
cation of a company with a c~apitaliZa-
ton of 81, 100000 to build a boat line to
operate on the Missouri river between
st. Louis and Kansas City. Walter S,
Dickey, a millionaire clay manufac-
turer, after a weeks consideration of
the proposition made to him by a COM
mittee OF 80 OF the biggest business
men in Kansas City, has consented to
head the company and by the latter
part Of his week it is expected a plan
of organization will be outlined.
Mr.. Dickey took the trouble to find
out how much men representing big in
terests in Kansas City were going to
contribute with the result that IL may
be stated that Mr.. Dickey, himself; w.
S. Woods, president of the National
Bank of Commerce; w. r. Nelson, pro-
prietor of the Kansas City Star; the
Burnham, Hanna, Munger Drygoods
company, and at least enc other will
invest $4,000 each in the line, while
at least a score Of other business men
are reckoned on for from $4,000 to
$25, 900.
And all Of this in the face of the fact
that three attempts to establish a
Kansas City boat line have failed fl
nancially in 80 years, although the
shippers who invested in the last two
got their one back, and in some
cases much more than that, through
reductions in freight rates.
Towns up the river from Kansas City
had best be humping themselves If they
expect to get any good out of the river
movement for the new line is to be
strictly a Kansas City business insti-
tuition, and it will set up a rate compe-
tition that is not likely to result in
much benefit for any other town.
