South Dakota JobberS VIII Fight IF
forts of Sioux City To
Raise Rates.

Sioux Falls, July 23.-South Da-
kota iobbers decided to pose the
efforts of Sioux City, Ia, to increase
the South Dakota express rates and
steps will be taken Immediately to
fight the proposed rate increase be-
fore the interstate commerce commits
sion. The action of the jobbers was

commissioner of the Sioux Falls traf-
fc bureau, for the purpose of uniting

ing the efforts to increase the express

on the Shreveport, La, decision has
filed a complaint with the interstate
commerce commission declaring that
the low express rates in South Da-
kota discriminate in favor of South
Dakota points and against Sioux City
and ask that the rates be raised so
as to be uniform with the Sioux City
rates.
The South Dakota shippers would
not oppose a reduction of the inter
state rates in favor of Sioux. City, but
do object to the raising of the rates
for which the state has fought so
hard to secure.
A committee was appointed to take
charge of the fight against raising the
rates. The following were at the
meeting: II. G. Jewett and j. G. Sim
mons of Aberdeen, John s. Pyle of
Huron, o. E. Bailey of Chamberlain.

CELEBRATE THEIR ESCAPE
Men Who Were Captured BY Indians
Commemorate the Event.

Miller. July 23.-To celebrate
their ~deliyerance from a hostile In
dian band who captured them fifty
years ago, where Gettysburg now
stands, Jas. Mahan came all the way
from LeMars, Ia, to rehearse and re-
new old friendships with Frank My
'ers, another of the prisoners at the
time. They were a part of the COM
|pany who in 1S63-4-5 were camped
on the Missouri river at Pierre where
the Indian school now is. Mahan and
Myers were two OF five scouts who
were dispatched August %, 1866, to
carry important messages to Fort
Rice, 200 miles farther north, which
trip they must make in two days.
After reaching the spot where Gettys-
burg now is they we're taken prison
ers by hostile Indians and marched
off to their camp. 1t happened that
there were some Indians with the
hostiles that knew the captured men
and as they had received favors from
them they prevailed on the hostile
foes to liberate them which they did,
and they continued on to Fort Rice
with the messages. Returning later
to Pierre, or where Pierre now is,
they came upon two Indians who
claimed to be friends whom they
knew. One of them said he was sick
and Mahan let him ride his horse
while he walked. The sick Indian at
once started the horse on the run and
was about to get away with the an
imal when Mahan shot him dead and
then rode the horse on to the camp.
Tears would frequently come to the
eyes of the two veterans as they re-
lated their experiences of half a cen
fury ago.

UNTERMYER A SKEPTIC
impugns Good Faith of Moraan's
Declaration of Retirement.

impugnS Good Faith OF Moraan's
Declaration Of Retirement.
New York, Jan. 3.-Samuel Unter-
myer, following the announcement of
Pierpont Morgan that the Morgan
house had retired from 30 director
ships in 27 of the largest corpora
tons in which 1t was represented, is
sued a statement impugning the good
faith Of the declaration of retirement
from much of the corporation activ-
ity OF the firms members. Mr.. Inter
myer claimed credit for the action
as having been brought about by the
Pujo investigation. He declared that
the action, however, was insufficient
evidence of bona fide intention on
the part OF Mr.. Morgan and his part
ners to do away with interlocking
directorates, and as proof of this
point he instanced the fact that the
bank board membership of the part
ners was retained, though this had
been the center of his attack. Spe
citic evidence of lack of good faith,
he declared, was in the fact that the
Guarantee Trust company voting
trusteeship held by II. p. Dawson,
w. II, Porter and George f. Baker
had not been dissolved.
In his announcement Mr. Morgan
said that he and his four partners
had retired from 30 directorships in
n Of the strongest corporations In
which they were represented. They
have withdrawn comDletely from the
New Haven, the New York Central
and tho American Telephone and
Telegraph, three OF their leading in
terests, Further Withdrawals are to
follow from corporations where there
is no special obligation to remain,
Reorganization OF the Morgan house
was decided upon because OF the
changed public sentiment regarding
interlocling directorates.
