SCRAP IRON DECISION .
Treasury Department Gives Ruling on
 New Law.

Washington, Oct. 24-fhe Treasury Department decided yesterday and gave notice that no scrap ron or scrap steel is entitled to classification under Paragraph 11S of the new tariff law unless It's condition as imported is unfit for use until reduced by heat from a solid to a fluid state.

Short of New York today shot and fatally wounded her at the Union station here and then sent a bullet crashing through his temple. He died an hour later at the Casualty Hospital.
 The tragedy created sensation among the large crowds at the s,a- ton. Mrs. Snort had just alishted from a cab which was also occupied by Ter husband and a girl friend and vas hurrying to catch 6 train for Pfttsburg when Short whipped a revolver from his pocket and fired three bullets into his wife's back.
 The woman, who now lies near death in the Casualty Hospital, Is known on the stage as Evelyn Howard, and play ed in Washington last week with the "Motor Girl" Company. She was for merly Evelyn Lewis of Jacksonville, Fla. and married Short. who Is a na- tive of Livingston, Ala, about seven years ago.

There are many right here at
home that do not realize that De
Smet has one of the largest stables of
breeding horses in the state, but such
is the fact, nevertheless. We do not
know of another town in South Da-
kota that has a stable containing SO
many Lorses devoted exclusively to
breeding as that of j H. Bouchie, of
this city. At present there are five
animals in this stable, two Belgians
and three Percherons, all of the best
imported stock. There are other ami
mails as good as those owned by Mr..
Bouchie, but none better. He is a
natural horseman and knows a good
animal at sight. None but the best
will hold his attention for a second.
The fifth stallion, a 5year-old
Percheron weighing from 1000 to
1000 pounds in ordinary flesh, was
received the first Of the week, and the
sixth is expected to arrive most any
day. The new animal is a fine speci-
men, having a good shaped head,
broad of chest, strong in the arms,
straight in the legs, with a perfectly
shaped body, and an action n would
only expect in a horse weighing sever
al hundred pounds less. Horseraisers
are demanding better blood than in
the old days and Mr. Bouchie believes
in supplying the demand. He is do
ing more than any other man in the
state to raise the standard of horse
flesh.

BECOME SECRETARY OF
TREASURY.

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-Ex-Governor
Myron r. HerrIcl, Of Ohlo, will nut
be the secretary of the treasury lii
the Taft cabinet. This fact is SGT
forth In the following statement writ
ten by Mr.. Taft, after a lengthy COLI
ference with Mr.. Herrick yesterday.
"At the invitation Of t..e President
elect, Governor Herrlck called on MIR.
Taft yesterday. Mr.. Tatt authorized
the statement that the ,nent!on OF
Mr.. Herrlck for the portfolio Of tho
treasury. as II he had been a can.
tliaate, did him great injustice, be
cause Mr.. HerrIck wrote Mr.. Taft as
early MS December last to say that
his business engagements were such
as to prevent his acceptance Of place
In the cabinet"
MIR. Herrlck, when questioned. said
that ne had nothing to add to this
statement, which was made for the
purpose OF making the record com.
,plete.
The elimination Of Mr.. Herrick at
his own request would seem to put
Mr.. Franklin McVeagh. Of Chicago, In
the lead for the place, but the only
,lgnt Mr.. TAFT would throw on the
situation last night was that 1t would
he several days yet before the mat
Ter would be. settled.
