New York.-The question as to the
total amount of American and foreign
investments in Mexico has been much
discussed in Wall street since the sit
uation on the border reached criti-
cal stage. Estimates run from $1,000
100000 to $1,50O,OO0,000, and most
banking houses with Mexican connec-
tons are agreed that the lower figure
was altogether too conservative.
For many years, in fact since the
Mexican war, American capital has
poured into northern Mexico because
of the enormous mineral resources of
the states of Sonora, Chihuahua,
Coahuila and Nuevo Leon.
Many millions also have gone into
the sections around Tampico, where
the great oil wells are situated, and
great sums have been invested in the
rubber plantations of Tampiche and
Yucatan.

on his way to Fort Yates and
Marmarth. At Fort Yates he called
on Claude C. Covey, who has charge
of the s., 900 road fund congress ap-
propriated for the use OH the Yellow
stone Trail across Corson county.
From there he went to Marmath to
be present at the dedication of the
bridge across the Little Missouri.
Mr.. Parmley passed through Mo-
bridge enroute home Tuesday and
reported a most satisfactory trip
At Fort Yates he met Superinten-
dent Covey, who he found was a
business man through and through
and watching the expenditures OF
the road fund like hawk. The
work was progressing very salts

doing the grading, were moving dirt

Work On NewFort
Yates Hotel Begun
Work on Fort Yates New Hotel Now
Under Way.-Contract Calls for
Completion by Sept. LIST

Contractor Ostrum this week be-
gan work on the new Fort Yates
hotel. The structure will be 26x60
feet, two stories and full basement.
The basement will be concrete and
the rest of the building OF frame
construction. Practically all the
material is OH the ground and the
building will be completed by Sep
tembcr 1st.
On the ground floor will be the
lobby, dining room, kitchen, bed
| room and closets. While the second
floor will be divided into twelve
guest rooms The completion of the
hotel will fill long felt want and
building the size under construction
it is believed will prove paying in
vestment and amply large enough
to care for the travelling public at
this time.
The contract price for the build
ing, not including the heating plant
is 81, 10000. 1t is expected that it
will cost $500 to put in the steam
heating plant, and it will also either
be necessary to sink well or con-
meet with the Agency water works
system, if permission can be secured.
The latter will be the more expen-
sivc, but probably be the most satis-
factory water supply.

took place this week when the ma

/; At meeting of the stakeholder

j. l.. Haas, Cashier.
The new board of directors ar,
G. B. Little, J. l.. Bell, A. O

tions In the state. J.. l.. Bell, one
of the directors, is vice-president of
that bank, while A. o. Schimansky
is cashier Of the Solen State Bank,

his former home. While Mr.. Haas
has been cashier the bank has pros
pered, and his removal will be a
distinct loss. J. A. Stiles retains
his block Of stock and will continue
as member of the board of direc-
tors.

Selfridge Hearings
Taken Up Tuesday
Chester Tceter Dismissed on Assault
Charge after Hsaring.-Other Cases
Continued Until July

The preliminary hearing of Chcs

with intent to do great bodily harm
was held at Sclfridgc Tuesday be
fore Justice Mcnz of Fort Yates
States Attorney Johnson prosecuted
and Robert Nash of Flasher, con.
Quoted the defense. After part ol
the states evidence was introduced,
the complaint was on motion of the
defense amended to simple assault.
After all the evidence had been pre-
sented the case was dismissed.
Sam Hummel who is charged
with being an accessor to the COM
mission of an assault with intent
to do great bodily harm in that he
aided his son who is charged with
stabbing Chester Smith, will have
his hearing July 18th. His son
Zephyr Hummcl, who is charged
with being the principal in the stab
bling Of Chester and II. f. Smith,
will have his hearing on July 9th
Both are under bonds.
The trial brought out evidence
which resulted in a warrant being
issued for Dayton Hileman, whom
it is alleged stabbed Zephyr Hum
mel during the affray, and he was
brought to the county seat by Deputy
Sheriff Dan Urell. Wednesday
Martin Swift and II. F. Smith
came over and signed 81, 900 bond
for his appearance at the hearing
which will probably be held at the
same time the Zephyr Hummel
trial is held, and he was released.
Reports are that Chester Smith
who was cut up pretty bad in the
affray, is still in serious condition,
while Zephyr Hummel is improving.
The wounds received by H. F.
Smith in his left forearm and wrist
ire also healing nicely.

The meaning of the telegram is
that where land has been classified
for enlarged or additional home
stead entry, a homesteader who has
not already availed himself of his
rights under this act can select
enough additional land to make $50
acres. The land embraced in the
second, Or additional entry, does
not have to adjoin the land originally
entered.
Should this bill become law
which appears a certainty-it will
also apply to the Standing Rock re-
servation, and will no doubt result
in the speedy selection of the re-
manning land in Sioux county sub
ject to the homestead entry.
