BLOW TO SANTA FE I'INK Or $330,000 IMTOKKD ON WKSTEHN ItOAD. Judge) Wellborn Convinced TJiat Gov ernment Established a Cnso Strong Enough to Warrant Penalty in Excess of the Minimum. - - Judge Olln Wellborn In the United Btatea district court at Los Angeles Thursday fined the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad company , 1330.000 for rebating. The fine was what the court denominated "an In termediate penalty," the maximum which might have been assessed be ing 11.320,000 and the minimum $66,000. The court reviewed the case in a written opinion of some length In which It stated that there were sufficient doubtful and extenuating circumstances to preclude the possi bility of a maximum sentence and yet sufficient Intention of wrongdoing shown to make impossible a mini mum penalty. The Santa Fe company was convict ed on Oct. 11 last by a Jury in the federal court of granting rebates to the Grand Canyon Lime and Cement company of Arizona. It was found guilty of all of the sixty-six counts charged in the Indictment after but an hour's deliberation. The rebates which were given on shipments of lime and cement from Nelson, Ariz., to ' Los Angeles, Cai., ranged In amounts from 35 cents to $IC. The company claimed that these amounts were not rebates on the regular freight rate, but wore In the form of damages to goods which were allowed after such claims had been regularly presented and proved In each instance. The court Thursday did not take that view of the case, however, and stated that It "was not convinced by any means that these amounts represented bona fide settlements of claims.

Orders were received at army head- Quarters In Omaha to dispatch tbe re maining two squadrons of the Second United State Pavalrv mmnuul nt eight companies, to Thunder Butte at the earliest possible moment la addi tion to the cavalry, CotnpaDy 14, Six-' teentb Infantry, under Capt Barry T.

Tho Utes, It Is poluted out, are iu a dense tho guests of the Sioux, and tbe Indian idea of bospltnllty might Induce some of the younger Sioux braves to offer aid in resisting any forcible meas ures adopted for the subjugation of the uiKunecteu ites. The Ute Indians, who have recently re belled against government restraint on the Cheyenne river agency in South Da kota, are believed to hate taxed the pa tience of their good-natured Undo Sam too Dinch. ' Officials of th Indlnn nltir and the' Interior Department will not dis cuss the probable action of the govern ment in relation to the Utes, but it Is hi- titnatcd that if damage to property or vio lence to settlers or government officers or soldiers has been or is committed the unrily Utes will face punishment such ns would be given to any other law vio lators. ' The attitude of the Indian office to ward the uneasy Utes has been decidedly a fatherly one ever since they first gnr evidence of a desire to get away front their own reservation. In the summer of 11KKJ the IHes decided that civilixation and citizenship were things which they didn't care for, nnd they announced their determination of leaving the Uintah reser vation in Utah and striking off into fhe Indian country" In South Dakota. Nearly 300 of them went on tbe pil grimage nnd the oovernmxnt followed in the tapneity of friendly adviser, urging them to return to their own reservation aad keeping an eye on them as tttey work ed their way eastward. - It was expected . the Utes would return to their reservation in the winter, but they remained In the Wyoming country for some time and ap- for tbelr own comfort and maintenance during the ld weather. As n consequence they vere finally "ar rested" last full and taken to Fort Meade, South Dakota, whore provision was made for thedr temporary quartering. Arrange ments were then made with the Sioux In dians on the Cheyenne river agency in South Dakota whereby four townships of land were leaned for tbe Utes and tlie-y were established upon these lands, near Thunder Uutte, nt the upper eud of the Cheyenne river agency. The Utes lung shown no inclination to return to their own aiuda in I Hub. The money for their support in Sooth Da kotu is drawn from the funds which would otherwise go to the general support of the Uintah und Ouray agencies In Utah, but this does not worry thi-m. They seem -willing to get elong with the least Vosniblii amount of vio.k; hut reeut uuy. effort on tho part of the government to restrain their liberty, or force, tln-m to tnke nn active part in the advancing of civilization. The Indian ofllec hus been lenient with thorn In every particular.
