sLEUTH ACCEPTS DRINK
AND ARRESTS DONOR

Deadwood, s. D., Sept. l0-Charles A.
Bates, whose parents live at Yankton,
S. D., n who is employed as a clerk
at the Pine Ridge, 8. D., Indian agency,
finds simself in q serious difficulty, be-
fore h federal court now in session
at Deadwood. as the result Of an In
clination to be sociable. A few weeks
ago Mr.. Bates visited q town near
Pine Ridge agency to make some pur-
chases, and among other supplies Sc
cured was a jug of whiskey, which was
intended for use by Mr.. Bates person
ally, under the direct orders of a ply
stefan. On the route home Bates en-
countered q friend driving another o
veyance, in h rear sect OF which two
strange men were riding.
The ~conVeyances. were halted while
Mr.. Bates conversed with his friend.
and in the course Of that conversation
asked the friend and the two strangers
freshments. They complied and a few
days later Bates vas placed under ar
rest for introducing liquor upon the
Pine Ridge reservation. One Of the
strangers was a government agent who
was looking for violators OF the law
which prohibits the introduction OF
liquor on Indian reservations.
Mr.. Bates reputation has never been
brought in question. His father
| Charles H. Bates, Of Yankton, has q
wide reputation as a civil engineer
and his mother was a daughter of m
of the pioneer families of Dakota, that
of Major H. C. Ash. The young man
in the case was married to a Miss
Cooper, a Canton young woman, short
ly after his appointment at Pine Ridge
n his superiors in the Indian service
pay him the highest compliment In
connection with his work.
The minimum penalty attached tc
the law violation Of which Mr.. Bates Ia
accused is several months In Jail and
a fine OF 500, and his friends are en-
deavoring to induce the authorities tc
consider his case as one Of emergency
in-as-much as he had obtained the
liquor for medicine.
The authorities, however, are said tt
be disinclined to make an exceptions Of
any nature. Judge James D.. Elliott
of the federal court, before whom
Bates was arraigned, is a PERSONA
friend of the young man, having
known his family for years, at Yank.
ton, and Judge Elliott Is said to have
been shocked beyond expression wher
the indictment came before him. The
case is one which a called for ex
pressions of sincere regret.

tained as Mr.. Bates attorney.

REFUSED new TRIAL
Court of Appeals Decides Ad.
versely In Case Of Pierre
Real Estate Man.

Sioux Falls, s. D., Sept. 10-Follow-
ing the action of the United States cir
cult court Of appeals In denying a new
trial to Charles L. Hyde, a wealthy
resident of Pierre, convicted in the
federal court in Sioux Falls on the
charge Of using the mails for fraudu-
lent purpose. Hyde has been ordered to
surrender himself to the United States
marshal within 80 days after the Judg-
ment Of the circuit court of appeals Is
filed in the United States court in this
city. preliminary to commencing ia
serve his sentence Of Is months inn
prisonment in the federal penitentiary
at Leavenworth, Kan. In addition he
vas fined $500.
Hyde is reputed to be the wealthiest
man In South Dakota, his wealth being
estimated at $1,000, 600, He was tried
by a Jury in the federal court in Sioux
Falls before Judge Elliott last Deem
her. The trial extended oVer abou two
weeks and was watched with keen in
terest by many thousands Of South Da-
kotans. Evidence was introduced to
prove that Hyde had represented ia
people in the east that lots which he
had for sale in the outskirts of Pierre
would rise rapidly in price, and had
induced many on these representations
to invest their savings in these lots
which were of but little IL any value.
He had informed the investors by
means of circulars. maps and letters
circulated through the mails, that
Pierre had a number Of natural ad-
vantages, and that there were valuable
minerals in its vicinity. Maps were
mailed showing street car lines run-
nings past the lots which he offered fol-
sale, when, as a matter of fact, there
were no street car lines in Pierre. Hyde
was convicted by the jury on three
counts, on which he was sentenced De-
cember 20 last to serve Is months in
the Leavenworth prison and pay q fine
of $1,000. The maximum sentence un-
der the law for the three counts was
three years and six months imprison-
ment and a fine of 81 800. 1E &#
Hyde appealed to the federal CIR
cult court of appeals, asking that he
be granted a new trial, which now has
been denied him by that court. The
case was one Of the most important
ever tried in the federal court in South
Dakota.

South Dakota Veterinarian
Visits Scene OF Infection and
Is Much Alarmed.

tDeadwood, s. D., Sept. &c. A.. Less
ne, OF this city, deputy state veterin-
airy surgeon, has Just returned from
the districts in northern Kansas n
southern Nebraska where a fatal di-
sease among horses Is killing thous-
ands OF those animals. He was ad-
vised by his father, also q veterinary
surgeon, at B~elvediere, Neb., that this
disease Is much increased in violence
and extent in that territory.
|. DIR. Leslie has advised the thort
les OF South Dakota to quarantine the
south line of this state to prevent the
entrance OF horses from Nebraska into
South Dakota. ana rigorous action Ii
expected to be taken. DR.. Leslie, after
exhaustive analyses of blood OF horses
killed by the disease, pronounces IL
trypanozoma- a malady Affecting the
intestinal tract and ervou system.
Fifteen hundred horses succumbed In
the period OF four days in northern
Kansas during DR.. Leslie's recent visit
n hundreds Of others were afflicted.
The animal usually lives 60 hours aft
or becoming sick. DIR. Leslie says the
disease resembles "maldxdecarderos,"
the widely known South American
horse fatality in some Of Its symptoms.
He thinks the disease Is infectious and
is carried by insects, Judging from the
results OF his investigation up to date.
He states that 1t Is the worst ca
lamity which has aver been among the
horse population of the middle west.
n its ravages may prove calamitous.
Lincoln. Neb., Sept. State Veteri-
marian Bostrom, who returned from a
tour Of the state In connection with
ravages OF. the mysterious horse de
sease, made a gloomy report on condi-
tons in sections visited. Z
The disease, he said, exists in the
southern part OF Che state from Fair
bury to McCook and from Columbus to
Merna. in the north central district. )
In Phelps county alone he found
there had been 500 deaths Of horses so
far, and scores are dying every day.
The ailment is not limited to ami
mails in poor condition, MI. Bostrum
gaid, but has claimed some Of the
finest herds.
The state veterinarian diagnosed the
disease as a species OF cerebro spinal
meningitis, but somewhat Different
from other visitations of like char
acter and much more deadly.
Mules, he found, were nearly ex-
empt, there being only two fatalities
among them so far as reported to him.
Nc remedy to combat the disease has
been discovered. he said.
