FEDERAL OFFICERS WILL
WATCH FOR vIOLATORS

Pierre. S. D., March 7.-Game War
den Hedrick, following instructions
from the federal department at Wash
ington, is again giving publicity to the
fact that there is absolutely no spring
shooting permitted in any state in the
union. The federal authorities report
that, though a considerable number Of
arrests have been made and cases tried,
on a whole the sportsmen of the coun-
try are obeyihg the law. The largest
humble of convictions were reported
from New York, New Jersey and Ore
gon.
A plan is under way to tag several
hundred ducks down south so that if
birds are shot on their northward jour
ney, their routes can be ascertained
over which they travel. The Washing
ton department has a force of 129 war
dens in the field organized under the
direction Of eight district inspectors,
and two special agents, and these war
dens are distributed in 81 states, chiefly
In middle states, the Mississippi val,
ley, the Great basin and the Pacific
coast. The department reports that
legislation is under way in five states
to cooperate with the federal depart
ment in relation to protection of mi
gratory birds.

COMMISSION SEEKS
TO defer new RATE
ON WESTERN CATTLE
Increase of Two Cents
Per Hundred Would Be Bur-
den to South Dakota.

Pierre, S. D., March 1.-THE state
railroad commissioners have entered a
request with the Interstate Commerce
commission to defer putting into exc
cution the order of the railroads for an
Increase of 2 cents per 100 pounds on
all cattle shipments going east. This
raise in rates would make thousands
of dollars increase in rates in South
Dakota alone, and the railroad COM
mission will endeavor at a hearing to
get the matter abated. This rate was
to go into effect April /.
The commissioners have also ordered
that claims for damage and losses may
be sent to railroad companies up to
April l, regardless of the fact that the
loss may have occurred more than
four months ago. For about a cal
past all bills of lading have contained
injunctions that loss claims must be
submitted within fou months to the
railroad offices. Some claims have not
been filed in accordance with that pro-
vision through ignorance on the part OF
shippers as to the new regulation.
This order of the railroad commission
ers to allow all such bills to be sent
in to railroad departments up to April
l will furnish some protection in such
cases.

BRULE COUNTY RANCHER
RETURNS FROM MEXICO

Chamberlain, S. D.. March THAT
he had been given an opportunity to
buy cattle from the herds Of William S.
Benton. the British rancher whose
death in Mexico has been the most i'm
p~ortant episode in the republic to the
south for several months, is the decla-
ration of John Q. Anderson, the Brule
county stockman who recently re-
turned from a trip along the border.
Mr.. Anderson met General Villa, the
rebel leader, who offered to sell him
any number of cattle taken in raids.
Among the cattle were nan which
had belonged to Benton, The rebel
chief further guaranteed to deliver the
cattle to Anderson at the border.
Newspaper dispatches from Mexico
have indicated that Benton met his
death when he came to Villas head
quarters and protested against the loss
of his cattle and other d~epredations by
Villas men.
The risk in attempting to ship the
cattle across the border, as well as to
transport them from a warm climate to
South Dakota at this time of the year,
deferred Mr.. Anderson from accepting
the offer of the rebel general. Several
thousand head of cattle were in the
corrals of the rebel camp at the time
he visited Villa, Mr.. Anderson declared.
