COMPLAIN EARLY
OF CAR SHORTAGE
CHANG. . NAPLES TELL
STATE COMMISSION THEY
CAN'T MOVE OUT GRAIN
ON HAND.

Pierre, s. D.-The complaints of
car shortages r beginning to come
to the state railway commission a lit
tie earlier this year than for former
years. So far two towns have made
complaint, both on the milwaukee"
road. one coming from Chancellor in
Turner county; and one from Naples,
IN Clark county; IN which grain ship
pers claim that they cannot secure
car as they order them. and by this
are being delayed in their grain ship
ments. Last year there was a great
deal Of complaint but it was later in
the season. Whether the early COM
plants presage q greater shortage
this year than for last year is not
certain. as they may be but indi-
vidual cases With local aso as the
cause, but there will no doubt be some
trouble on that score before the end
OF the shipping season this year. IN
der the reciprocal demurrage act of
this state the shipper has the same
right to claim demurrage as has the
railway company, but as the demur-
rage amounts OF the individuals are
always small, and they expecte that
any efforts on their part to collect de-
murrage will be resisted by the roads.
the expense of q suit will be greater
than the amount they could secure
even IL successful in any suits they
brought, there is little attempt on
the part Of the shippers to put that
part of the law into action.

by the flames, which swept from the
northwest, carrying cinders for a half
mile and threatening not only dwell
ings but their occupants. The busi-
ness buildings being nearly all frame
structures, there was no natural
check to the progress of the fire.. Al
most without exception the men who
have suffered loss are secured.
Not only is this loss disastrous to
the business interests represented, but
it also seriously affect the "outatting"
trade for settlers crossing the river at
this point and founding their homes
on the Cheyenne reservation.

REMOVING GRAVEsToNEs.
Old Markers Distributed in Ancient
Burying Ground at Bristol.

Mrs. Mary Seymour Peck, chairman
of the special committee of Katherine
Gaylord chapter. u. A. r., which has
charge Of the preservation of the an
cieut cemeteries of the town of BriS-
tol. and which has done much to keep
them in repair. has entered formal
complaint to Chief Belden of the police
department that some one has been
moving gray estones in the old EpiSco-
pal church burying ground in the rear
of the Federal Hill school on Stearns
street. AS near as can be estimated
most of the old eravestones in the old
est cemetery in Bristol have been TAX
en- up and moved to one end of the
ancient cemetery where they are out
OF views of Stoarns street and are
punched together One old brown
headstoue that had rested peacefully
in the cemetery for considerably over
a century, was broken off squarely so
that half of it is now in the soil and
the other half lying on the ground.
The whole collection of gravestones
has been practically moved up into q
small section of the west end OF the
cemetery. where they will be out of
sight. and gravel to help keep them in
place was taken from the rear of the
Federal Hill school. The cemetery is
the property of Trinity Episcopal
church, and the officials of that church
have taken the matter up so that full
investigation win be made in conjunc-
ton WITH the police.
