Pierre, 8. D., Oct. l2.--Becaust: lie wan
first to give expression to the plan of
securing to the state of South Dakota

was instrumental in placing in the con-
'grotsional enabling act a. clause provid-

pie Which it is now proposed to ac-
cord him.

endowments of lands for educational
purposes, secured for South Dakota.
was also made the heritage of the Sis
ter state Of North Dakota of Montana.
Wyoming and of every commonwealth
that has reached the condition, Of state-

Four dwelling houses, all in the
vicinity of the Asylum Avenue ball
grounds, were entered by thieves at
different hours last night and val
uables and clothing stolen amount
ing to at least $50, the thieving
having been done while the respect
i've families slumbered.
A. Gage, who has charge of the
blood hounds at the penitentiary,
had five dollars in silver removed
from his trousers pocket, which he
had left hanging on the bed post
while he was in bed. The robber
entered the front door of the Gage
home and after sneaking Mr.. Cages
trousers out on the front porch, went
through the pockets and left the
trousers lying on the veranda.
The Davis home on Twenty-first
street received a call from the sneak
thieves. The man was frightened
away before he took any more than
SIC and a gold watch from the Da-
Wis home, by Miss Davis, who was
returning from the theatre when she
saw a light pass from the lower floor
to the upstairs bedrooms. Miss Da-
Wis called to her parents but could
not awaken them but succeeded in
making the burglar hear, causing
him to set the lamp down and make
good his escape through the rear
door, through which he gained en-
trance.
The dwelling of George Larsen
was broken into at some early hour
while the family was sleeping, and
ran off with some clothes and 9TH
er articles of more or less value.
The same performance was car
ried on in the Williams home on
Twenty-first street last night. but
the job was either too risky or the
burglars became frightened, as there
was nothing taken OF value.

the depredations this morning by

the Salton Sink was filled and much
of the development company's prop

At the time the money was bor-
rowed the Southern Pacific COM
pany entered into a contract with
the development company, which
provided that the railroad corpora
ton would appoint three members
of the directorate of the develop
ment company, with the addition OF
naming the president. The presi-
dent was empowered to appoint the
executive officers and chief engi-
neers employed by the company. In
the suit which was decided late yes
terday, the development company
alleged that the Southern Pacific
entered into the agreement in order
to control rich water rights which
gave it practical control of the val
ley.
John D. Works, counsel for the
development company, refused to
state whether further action in be-
haf of his client would be taken.

Storm That Swept Over West

Disaster in Its Ter

HUNDREDS KILLED
FORTY-EIGHT INCHES OF RAIN
FELL AT KINGSTON AND THE
PROPERTY DAMAGE is ENOR-
MOUS-STORM is TRAVELLING

[rN1rrp PRESS LnAsrn w1nn. |

New York, Nov. 13.-Enormous
damage has been wrought by the
hurricane and storm visiting the West
Indies Wednesday and Thursday, ac-
cording to reports received here to-
day.
1t is feared that there will be a
large death list when all details have
been received.
Already some deathse and heavy
damages have been reported at Port
de Paix and Gonives.
With telegraph and cable commu-
nication disrupted it is impossible to
ascertain the true situation.
Santo Domingo caught the brunt
of the gale and the property loss is
sure to be enormous.
To add to the horror of the situa-
tion earth disturbances are reported
from Hayti.
The storm which swept Jamaica
is now moving in the direction of the
Bahamas and Bermuda.
No less than forty-eight inches of
rain fell at Kingston while the storm
was in progress.
The property damage there is es-
timated at 100000.
1t is feard that the heavy rainfall
has played havoc with the banana
crop. If this proves to be true it
will cause great suffering in Jamaica
this winter as the natives largely de-
pend on the money received for this
crop ocarry them through the seas
on. This will prove an unusually
hard bio wat this time as the natives
have hardly recovered from the losses
they sustained in the arthquake of
1907, which laid Kingston in ruins
and destroyed LOO lives.
Railroads have been wrecked and
all traffic is at a standstill.
Many vessels were driven ashore
during the storm and it is feared that
a number Of craft, unable to weather
the gale, went down.

lynchers, Sheriff Davis stated this
morning that he would confer with

The streets of the city have taken

Arthur Alexander the negro whom
James implicated in the murder of
Anna Pelley, arrived from Cham
paign last night on special train
under a military guard. He was
removed from Cairo for safe keep
ing as the mob had threatened to
do him harm.
There was no demonstration at
Champaign upon the negro's arrival
here, as few knew that he was in
town until he was safely lodged in
the Urbana jail.
