RUSH FOR MINERAL CLAIMS
Walker Laks Indian Reservation Form all
Opened at Kooi Monday.
MANY PROSPECTORS' DISREGARD LAW
Men ho Waited for the Start
la Signal Find the Moat
Valnable Tracta Already
Occupied.
TlfORNK. Nev.. Oct. JH.-Wlth the firing J
of n mlp-htv Mn.t nf .lvnpnilte from the
top of Grant peak, the highest point In
the adjacent mountains, the Walker Lake
Indian renervation was opened at noon to-
day. At the Riven siitnal hundreds of,
searchers for aold hurried belter kelter
over the boundary lines of plains and
mountains and before the great cloud of
smoke which rose in the air from the dy-
nainlte explosion had drifted away a spec
tacular race of automobiles, race horses
and vehicles was on. 8o great was the
rush scroas the desert from the line near
est IIaw-thorn that a number of rorsons
narrowly escaped being trampled over and
In numerous Instances Injuries were re
ported. v
Horw-s were ridden until they dropped
and men recounted the.lr ill fortune when
their automobiles became stalled In the
deep sands. Jaded and overcome by thirst,
numbers of prospectors barely summoned
j enough strength to make their locations.
Moat Valuable ( laima Jomped.
Those who had waited for the signal
from the top of Mount Grant before rush
ing into the reservation found that all the
most valuable claims In the vicinity of
Rich Dutchman's. Cottonwood and numer
ous other creeks emptying Into the south
western section of Walker lake had been
taken up by men who had rushed In during
t lie night, contrary to law. Even men who
employed launches to take thein across
Walker lake from the eastern side found
that their efforts were of no avail, as they
were much too lute to be on an equal foot
ing with tho men who had disregarded the
law. , .
The opening of the reservation was not
ns imposing as It promised to be on account
of the fact that countless numbers o)
miners had flocked Into It during the night
and early morning, completely overwhelm
ing the Indian police, of whom there were
fourteen to guard seventy-five miles of
territory. i
Openlna May Be Invalid.
Special Land Agent Parks deplores the
fact that the rush was allowed to take
place when It was known that the laws
of tho United SUtes In regard to the open
ing a reservation had been evaded. He
says that there Is yet a pow.ibi:ity that
the present opening may be. declared in
valid and a new one lled for.
Sub-Indian Agent Robert Lovegrove made

the Indians had occupied their time lu

rush, .contrary to the law. which states
that all leroons shall keep off the reserva
tion, until the, time fixed for Its opening.

of the Theodore Roosevelt professorship of
American history and Instructions at the
t'niverslty of Berlin, has been printed by
the University Press and widely distrib
uted In official and scholastic circles
There was some curiosity to see precisely
what Prof. Burgess said regarding the
Monroe doctrine being out of date, upon
tho obsoleteness of the high protective
taj-lff and on the United Slates Interests
being promoted by the extensive German
emigration to South America. As the ad
dress was made In the presence of tho em
peror and frequent references were made
In It to President Roosevelt, the impression
appears to have been made that the presi.
dent desired to se-id a message to Germany
on thosei .subjects. Some of the pa pen
double led Prof. Burgess remarks con
cerning the Monroe doctrine seeming at
tributing significance to It
Text of the Pasaaar.
A translation of the passage In question
follows: '
In my. Hint, meeting with the president
after my ai'-potntmcut to this professorship
it pleased him to nddresa me as nn am
bassador or peace, friendship and rlvilixii-tlon.-
He KAve proof througn this that he
recognised and appreciated tho great Idea
which his majesty, tha highly gifted and
magnanimous Geiman emperor, gave to
the the world January 1, W5. It Is the
opinion of the president. It Is the opinion
of my countrymen in general, that this idea
Is the most pregnant that haa come forth
in our time and that It gives evidence of
the great sense of culture and extraordi
nary political wisdom of Its mighty au
thor. The execution of this Idea makes it
possible to subject questions of the highest
Imiiorlance, -which can scarcely be touched
upon in a diplomatic way, to tne most
fundamental examination and the most
friendly consideration. There are, for ex
ample, two doctrines In the policy of the
I'nlted States which are regarded as al
most holy doctrines, the discussion of
which may. not even be proposed by a
foreign power without risk of awakening
hostility In the I'nlted Plates. These sre
the high protective tariff theory and the
Monroe doctrine. Our politicians do not
appear to have the least notion that both
of these doctrines sre almost obsolete and
that the reconstruction of European states
and their constitutions and the acceptance
by the United States Itself of its position
as a world power have made them appear
nearly seimtleaa.
Freedom of New Ambassadors.
Prof. Burgess said he regarded the dis
cussion of. the protective tariff diplomat
ically between the United States and any
foreign government as futile, but the new
Ambassadora of peace and culture would be
wholly free from limitations such as bound
the diplomatists. They would bo able to
speak from their own convictions without
fear of being punished or recalled, or, what
waa still mora Important, without fear of
l disturbing or. undermining friendships,.
Prof. Burgess added: .
i Thickest bitrrests otVaba TThlted Statea
and the world would be advanced by a
Strong Teutonic tide of emigration to South
America, by which the settlement of that
glgartio part of the continent by men
capable of cultivating it would be secured.

Buffalo Elll Is safe again. Colonel Cody
and his hunting party have arrived at
ICody. Wyo., from their big hunt into the
mountains and came bark loaded with big
game. This was the Information received
In a telegram from the colonel by his side
partner, Colonel MrCuno nt tho Merchants
hotel yesterday afternoon late.
Colonel McCune disclaims that he or any
other friend of Colonel Cody'o la Omuha
waa the least bit apprehensive for the
safety of the party, as it was known that
no snow fell In the Rig Horn mountains
and the party was not In the least danavr.
T. J. Foley of Omaha. Colonel Btanlry
of Liverpool, England, and Mike Russell
of Dcadwood are In the Cody party.
CODY, Wyo.. Oct. 29. (Special Telegram.) j
Colonol W. F. Cody nnd party, repotted
lost In a snowstorm on their hunt through
Buffalo Bill's old hunting grounds In the
Rockies, Is untrue. Colonel Cody and party
arrived at the Tee ranch, about eighteen
miles from Cody, Saturday. October 27,
none the worse for their experience from
the storm, having had a successful hunt
ing trip, killing a 000-pound silver tip bear
and other large game. Iron Tall, an old
Indian chief, accompanied Buffalo Bill and
party. It was quite a severe strain on
the colonel to restrain Chief Iron Tall
from shooting buffalo, as ho had ho license
to hunt. Ex-Mayor J. M. Schwood of Cody
Is ona of the party and reports he saw sev
eral mountain Hons and other wild an mals.
The party will arrive at Cody after a few
days' rest at the Tee ranch.

SAN FRANCI3CO, Oct. .-( Special Tele
grain) It has been calculated that the steel
lu the ruins of this city will form a valua
ble source of Income to the owners and
that the ruins are richer than any known
mine.
Officials of the Southern Pacific report a
large movement of scrap steel and say that
Instead of going east, as waa the case when
the movement first started, by far the
Inrger part of the steel Is going to local
smellers, that at Selby getting a sood slice
of the supply.
The steel is being taken from owners who
are cleaning up helr properties and then
shipped to the smelters. The steel Is In
fair condition and has to undergo prac
tically no purification pna-ess, but is being
melted up and recast for new beams
A movement on foot to establish pnieltcrs

la s.ild that such action will greatly lower
the cost of structural sled and will enable

to l.rnrn What Their
Mission Is.
SHERIDAN. Wyo., Oct. 2K.-tBieclal Tel
egram.) The anticipated Junction of the
military, expected to occur tonight, has
been delayed bcause of the nonarrlvul
of the command under Colonel Augur, who,
with the entire Sixth cavalry, waa ordered
overland from Fort Meade. It is now
learned that Colonel Augur with a part of
tlm Sixth Is now en route to either Arvadit
or Sheridan over tho Put llngtnn. The troop
train passed through Newcastle tonight at
9:30 and will reach Its deatlnat.on some
tlmo Tuesday morning. It Is Impossible
for the troops to reach the vicinity of the
Indians before Wednesday unless a firoed
march Is made. It In understood here Col
onel Augur hss command of the enllra
military forces, and no demonstration will
be made until his arrival.
A courier arriving at Arvada from tha
Indian camp this afternoon says thoy art
acting more sullen, uttering maleulctlcns
at the members of the Tenth cavalry
camping on their trail. As the messenger
rode from the Indian camp he saw at least
twelve white men ride up nnd dismount.
They mingled fiooly with the Indians and
seemed on friendly relations with thero.
Who they aro or what their puristi la
waa the subj.-et of much speculation here.
The mefjienger stated that the. troops fol
lowing the Indiana were, anxiously await
ing the arrival of Colonel Augur's com
mand and that a scout was expected to bo
sent to meet the new arrivals at Arvada
tonight. The scout should arrive some time
tonight.
Troops Follow Ilea.
Headed for the historic, battle grounds
on the Little Muddy, determined to tight
before being taken back to Utah, and
probably having sent ,. courlera in ad
vance to attempt to stir up the Cheyennea
to join them on the Tongue river, the
renegudo Utes left camp early this morn
tng nnd started at a rapid pace. They are
closely followed by troops of the Tenth

fjta -Uttuni- until Junction 1s -'made "-with--4
teooris from Forts Meade and Kooglt. It
Is expected that this will occur on Tongue
river, . nenr Ashland, sixty miles north of
Sheridan.
At 9 o'clock this morning a telephone
message from Birney, fifteen mllos south
of Ashland, stated that troops comlnu from
the south had not arrived.
Considerable speculation Is being Indulged
In here as to th disappearance of a bfnd
of Crows which was camped here last
night. Chief Swecimouth said jestarday
they were here on n trading expedition.
but the tact of the hurried departure early
this morning lends color to me rumor that
they have gone north to Join tho Utes.
Birney is at the end of the telephone
from Sheridan, and reports froti beyond
must be matin by courier.
The reported killing ot cowboys by Utes
Is not credited here.
Troopa from the Tenth cavalry, following
close at the heels of the band, would un
dcubtedly Interfere In the evnt of the In
dlans attacking settlers. .
Mturgla Flaa av "care.
6TURGIS, S. D., Oct-I 29. (Special Tele
gram). Two Indiana, supposed to be
Ute chiefs or Sioux, were here last night
at 6:15. They stopped a citizen and asked,
"How far Is Fort MeadeT" "How big a
town Is Sturgls?" "Hive, troops left Fort
Meade 7'
After being answered they left In a
westerly direction afoot. They are
thought to have had horses hid In tha
brush. Both Indians had numerous
badges.
Tho authorities of the city wera notlrtod
of their appearance and word waa Imme
diately sent to Fort Meade. Considerable
excitement prevails. The Indians are
supposed to belong to the Utes In Wyom
ing. Their apjieii ru nee. aroused people so
that extra police and mounted men wera
mustering in town during the night, fear
ing a raid on the flour mills or stores for
provUlona. All guns in tho city were ready
for action, including those of the militia.
Everything seems quiet this morning.
Arrangements were made to turn In a
general fire alarm last night should any
thing happen. All necessary precautions
are being taken by the authorities at Fort
Meade.

GILLETTE, Wyo., Oct. 29-Three hun
dred and lifty Utes. whom United Slate
troops have been sent to intercept, aie bill!
canqied on Powder river, north of here, bul
are making preparations to inovw northwefct
to Join tho Northern Cheyennea on the
Crow reservation. The Indians have al
ready sent messengers ahead to sslecl
camping grounds and to notify the settlers
and ranchmen that they mean no haiiu.
It is belitivetl by old Indian fighltus harp
that If proper diplomacy is used there Is i
chance of a battle with the rednxln. who
are inclined to he peaceable, but resent tbe
action of the government fn dmiandlng
their return to their reservation.
They assert they left Uielr rsnerva be

remain on the reservation. They simply left
for hclf-presi.-rvatluii and are going tu
"Big water, wood, big gafne and life
happy," us Chlrf Appall expresses It.
Major GrleiMin. In command of the Tenth
cavalry, haa recommended that Indian in
spectors and Sioux Indian diplomats bs sent
here by the government to hold a bli pow
wow with the Utos and In connection with
the army try to induce the Italians to re
turn. Major Grlerson Is confident the Indians
will not return to their reservation unless
confront! by an overwhelming force and
will resist any smull force sent against
them. When the Indians are rounded up
thrv, will be escorted, says Major Grlerson,
to Fort Meade, to be held pending furthad
