Settlers Pouring
Into South Dakota
Three Hundred Carloads of Immigrant
Effects Sent Into Northwestern
Part of the State.
6IOCX FALLS, B. D., April U. (Special.)
Reporats from points on the Paclfio coaat
extension of the Chicago, Milwaukee ft.
Paul railway in the extreme northwestern
portion of the state are to the effect that
for some little time past there has been a
great influx of new settlers to- Lemmon
and other points along the new line. At
one time a few days ago there were be
tween Mobrldge and Lemmen a total of
KH) cars loaded with the effects of the new
Settlers who were destined to points In the
vicinity of Lemmon and other new towns
along the railroad extension. Traffic la ao
heavy on the line that the railway com
pany has difficulty In securing a sufficient
Dumber of locomotives to pull the trains
. through, and freight shipments conse
quently are greatly delayed. There Is a
very encouraging outlook for the new set
tlers. The ground is In e-xoellent condi
tion and crop prospects could not well be
brighter than they are at present. Great
areas of virgin prairie land is being broken
and this season will be devoted to crops for
the first time. In this breaking process
acres of Immense power breaking outflta
are being utilised, and they are turning
over the sod at a really remarkable rate.

Maiterhood of Christ and Power of
Organization Themes of
Addresses.
The auditorium ol the Young Men's
Christian association was filled to its ca
pacity Sunday afternoon to listen to two
addresses by Rev. F. B. Meyer of London.
England, president of the World's Sunday
School Conference, and Marlon Lawrant-e
of Chicago, secretary of the International
Sunday Schqol association.
The meeting began with a half hour of
song, led by B. O. Excell, that had the
effect of awakening a spirit of enthusiasm.
"I always had a liking to speak before
men," said Mr. Meyer, "for I waa a busi
ness man in London before I been me a
mlrlster, and then for years attended the
grent college of human life, looking after
those men who had Just been let out of
Jail and assisting in giving them a new
start in life. I know what the temptations
ot a great city are.
"I dislike the term brethren; It Is too
formal. Brother is the better word; it Is
a real man's word. We are brothers, be
we paators or laymen. There Is no differ
ence between you and me because I wi-ar
the dress of a pastor. I want you to k-ad
the life I am trying to lead. In the pulpit
or out of It, we are under the mastcrhood
of Christ.
"Mak Christ the king of your whole life.
Be willing to do Ula work, which la like
a mathematical problem. You may write
a whole line of noughta. but they signify
nothing unless you have a flguro in from
of them.. Then they are Increased ten and
ten thousand fold. It Christ be that
figure In front and then you will be and
do something."
Marlon Lawrence spoke upon the subject
of "Men's Classes." He said:
"The organised class Is built upon the
demand of the day and organisation de
termines the difference between success
and failure. Organisation perpetuates life.
Man is Immortal until his work Is done.
"Were It not for the work of organization
effected by Sir Utorge Williams In estab
lishing the Young Man's Christian associa
tion this building we are now in would
nnver have been erected. Theae classes
are not living tor themselves It baa be
come a question of 'What can I do?' not
What can I get tut. of ttT
"When people are doing things they are

Dr. Hyde on Trial
for Alleged Murder
of Colonel Swope
Kansas City Physician is Accused of
Causing Death of Millionaire and
Several Relatives by Poison.
KANSAS CITY. Mo.. April ll.-Dr. B. C.
Hyde appeared In the criminal court here
todHy to answer a charge of murdering
the late Colonel Thomas H. Swope, million
aire philanthropist and uncle of the phy
sician's wife.
Colonel Swope died October i, last. This
death certificate gave apoplexy as the
cause of demise. Dr. Hyde was In at
tendance. The state avers the physician
poisoned the millionaire by administering
strychnine to hltn In a cspsule form.
The motive for the alleged crime, says
the state, was to obtain wealth. By the
terms of Colonel Swope's will, Mrs. Hyde
was to receive a share of her uncle's prop
erty and some money. Desiring to hasten
the settlement of the estate, and also to
prevent certain changes which the' colonel
had planned from being made in the will,
Dr. Hyde, the' state will attempt to prove,
killed the aged capitalist.
The Indictment upon which Dr." flyde is
being tried Is for first degree murder. It
was voted against him on March 6. At the
same timu ten other Indictments werere
turned against the physician. One charges
first degree murder of Chrisman Swope, a
nephew of Colonel Swope, by 'administering
poison to him'. A'n Indictment for man
slaughter was voted accusing Dr.' Hyde lit
negligently killing James Moss Huntori, a
cousin of Colonel Swope, by bleeding him.
The eight remaining indictments charge the
physician with attempting to poison Miss
Lucy Lee SWope, Mildred Fox, Sarah
Swope, Georgia Compton, Nora Bell Dick
son, Sttlla Swope, Margaret Swope and
Leonora Copiidge. All of these people were
attacked by typhoid fever when it was' pre
valent (n the Swope home and It la averred
Dr. Hydo caused their illness.
No indictment but the one relating tp the
death of Colonel Swope enters Into, the case
which went to trial today, however.
Judge Ralph. 8. Latshaw. Is hearing the
case. The state is represented by Prose
cutor Virgil CpnkJlng, .John.. G. Paxton,
Thomas J. Mastln, John H. Atwood, James

Formal Consideration of Administra

ELKIK3 OFFERS AMENDMENTS

Offered kr Cnmmlns la Defeated
Rasalag Drbate on the
fenrt Pratarr.
WASHINGTON. April 1L Senator F.lk'ns.
chairman of the Interstate commerce com
mittee, moved to take tip the administra
tion railroad bill In tha senate today. The
motion prevailed and. the consideration of
the bill, was proceeded with.
Previous to the taking up of the bill In
regular order, today Senator Dixon of
Montana, presented an amendment making
It unlawful for carriers to charge more
for short thsn for long hauls.
The first vote tsken was on Senator
Heyburn's amendment, creating a court for
the consideration of questions growing out
of the dif-posal of the public lands. The
provision was voted down, 34 to 27.
The senators from' tho putuie' lands states
generally voted for the provision, but the
eastern" senators, regardless of party, voted
against It, 8 s a rule.
Kllilns Offers Amendments.
The senate then entered upon thr con
sideration c-fMhe bill proper. Mr. Elklns
offered two amendments to the commerce
court . provision, specifically conferring on
the court the Jurisdiction In railroad cases
now exercised by the Vnlted States circuit
courts. ' ' ; y
Mr. Cummins presented a substitute pro
viding that the Jurisdiction of the proposed
court should not- b 'Idirferent from or
greater than that of tha circuit courts."
Mr.- Aldrlch- made an appeal to the Iowa
senator to permit action on the Elklns
amendment, as In the line of perfecting
the bill In accordance with the Ideas of the
Interstate Commerce commission..
Mr. Cummins said he had doubt as to
whether In reality the Elklns amendments
represented the views, of the commission.
A running dobate. which was largely
technical" in -character, ensued. The dis
cussion was participated in by. Senators
Cummins and Clapp on the one side and
by Senators Aldrlch, Elklns and Sutherland
on the other.
Mr. Cummins again presented his amend
ment as originally offered. A third roll
call was ordered, with the result that the
provision went the way of its predecessors,
but the difference In the vote was some
what less pronounced. It stood 38 to 28.
The Elklns' amendment was then voted
In without division. . '

BIG TRUST CASES
TO BE REARGUED
(C6ntlnued from First Page.)
three years after the. filing pf .the petition
In the circuit .court, the- four Judges, who
bad ..been called, In to pass on the suit an
nounced the. decree, of-he. court. . , , .-.
That decree .upheld -nearly .every conten
tion the government had made. , It (Jld.
however,, dismiss .some of the defepdant
companies. It decreed that the reorganisa
tion of the Standard Oil' company of New
Jersey in' 1899 constituted a combination
and a conspiracy in restraint of commerce
among the states and with foreign nations,
and -a combination and conspiracy to
monopolise that' commerce in violation, of
sections one' and two, respectively, of the
Sherman anti-trust act.
'The principal or holding company was
enjoined from directing the affairs of the
subsidiary corporations, and the sub
sidiary corporations were prohlbled from
paying dividends to the holding company.
The defendants' were enjoined from en
gaging in Interstate commerce until the
illegal combination was diKcbntlnued.
Lest the defendants get around the de
cree in some manner the court enjoined
them from carrying the combination Into
fu"rther effect either by the use of liquidat
ing certificates given to trusees, or by an
agreement or arrangement like' that ad
Judged Illegal. '""'
It did, however, grant permission specific
ally ' for the distribution rotably to the
shareholders of the . holding company of
the shares' In the subsidiary corporations.
Then the suit was brought to .the su
preme court of the United .States on the
appeal of the Standard. On account of the
great Importance of the case It was ad
vanced for an early tiering.
.Argument Last Month.
Qn March 14 ot the present year the final
argument of the case began. It lasted three
days. For the Standard Oil, the- most
brilliant , lawyers obtainable pleaded its
case. John Q. Johnson of Philadelphia
headed the list, and associated with him
were John O. Mllburn of New York and
D. T. Watson of PlttsburJ. For the gov
ernment. Attorney General Wickersham,
in .person, .and Frank B. Kellogg of St.
Paul directed the fight.
The government, dwelt upon -what It
termed the Standard's enormous profits
and high prices, the pipe lines as an aid
to monopoly numerous-"contracts In re
straint . of tra4e," railroad rebates and
discriminations in connection with the al
leged monopoly -by the Standard -of rail
road lubrication and various forms of "un
fair methods of competition."
Basle of Circuit Decree.
-The circuit court baaed ita decree on the
single finding that the reorganisation of
the Standard Oil In 1899 was a violation of
the Sherman anti-trust law. In Ita fight
before the supreme court the government
argued that even if this were not a vio
lation of the law, -other acts were.' For
Instance, there had been a continuing con
spiracy to monopolise the trade the government-
Claimed. In support of this con
tention, of existing monopoly. It pointed
to the finding of the circuit court to the
effect that the Standard, from lfcS to 1907:
. Produced more than one-tenth of the
crude oil obtained In this country.
Owned and operated more than one-half
of. all the tank cars used to distribute Its
products.
Manufactured more than three-fourths of
all the crude oil refined lu the United
States, , . . V . .
Transported mors than four-fifths of the
pei oli-11 m derived from . the Pennsylvania
and Indian oil fields. .. ..
Marketed more than four-lfths of all the
Illuminating oil sold In the United States.
Exported mors than four-fifths of all the
illuminating oil sent forth from the United
Ststes.
o!d . mora than four-fifths of sll the
nsphtha sold In the United States.
Sold more than nine-tenths of all the
lubricating , ol . soid ' to railtuad companies
in' the United States. i
Throughout' the fight Ihs reorganization
of 14 waa the storm cnier, 'aria In de
fense of (list action' the legal Haleht ot the
Siandard'-dlieeted Ita energy. ' - '
The claim was set up that the reorganiza
tion' of "l did not restrain tiade by re
ducing competition, because "the properties
Involved In this suit formed a noncnmpetl
live group pi lor to the piisfsse of the
Sherman act In 10 and their tisiiKfer to
the New Jersey corporation In 19 did no'
alter their status or restrict competition."
Defease of Company.
This same dorrrise was made In the cir
cuit cfHirt. That court held that the power
of the prlncltml company after the trans
fer' of 1R!9 to ft the prices atvwhlcli the
corpoi-stfous should buy and sell the arti
cles In which they dealt; the terms of
their purchases and siles, their rates for
the transportation of oil and Its products
and all the infinite, details of their vast
operations in which they might compete
was greater, more easily and quickly exer
cised and hence more effective than ll
could have been In the hands of S.00 scat
tered stockholders. It held that Ihe cor
porations wore potentially competitive If
not active competitors.
The government advanced the same ar
gument before the supreme court, as it had
done before the circuit court. The Standard
replied by contending thst the doctrine of
"potential competition" would mean that
one person could be compelled to compete
with himself. The argument over the sub
ject and the "discussion of what constitutes
a monopoly consumed many hours of the
hearing.
'As' to its monopolistic tendencies. ' the
Standard's attorneys entered a denial, but
boasted of Its largeness, as the natural
development and outgrowth of ' business
begun nearly fifty years before. - '
"By untiring energy, with Infinite skill,
with abundant capital and the steady re
investment of early profits,' said Mr. Wat
son In fils brief prepared for the court,
"these men and their associates created
out of an entirely new, unique and un
precedented production of crude oil, a n;w,
universally used and cheapest Ulumlnant
the world has known. They succeeded, as
If one had developed unexpectedly n gold
or diamond mine, and abundant revenue
legitimately became theirs."
The reply of the government to this
line of argument was summed up in one
outburst of Mr. Kellogg In addressing the
