PECK IS FOUND DEAD Yardmaster for Rock Island Road Ira 5. Peck, yardmaster for the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad in this city, was found dead in bed at his home, 712 First avenue, yesterday morning. Death had eyldently come during his sleep, as the position of the body and the expression of the face were perfectly natural. Indications were that death had taken place several hours before the fact was discovered. Mr. Peck, with his wite and one daughter, occupled a portion of the double residence of F. L. Reed, clerk of the district court. Mrs. Peck and her daughter had recently gone to visit relatives in Marshalltown and trom there intended to spend some time at Lake Okobojl. Mr. and Mre. Reed and their daughter are also away from home and Mr. Pock and Frank Reed were the only oc- cupants of the house. Monday evening, be- fore retiring for the night, Mr. Peck and Mr. Reed sat together on the front porch and at that time Mr. Peck appeared to be in his ueual health. When Mr. Peck falled to appear at his office yesterday morning at the usual hour a telephone message was sent to the Reed residence. Frank Reed had gone to hlis office at the county court house and a neigh- bor, Mrs. Pontlus, hearing the telephone ringing repeatedly, finally answered It. Mrs. Pontlus then called Mr. Reed from the courthouse and he and his brother-in-law, R. C. Peregoy, hastened to the house, where they found Mr. Peck apparently asleep In bed. Closer investigation showed that he was dead. Joroner Treynor was at once summoned, but decided that there was no need for an inquest, death was evidently due to heart A The body was removed to an un- dertaking etablishment and the members of the family were notified by telegraph. A won, Paul Peck, Is a student In Chicago university. Mr, Peck was 65 years of age and had been in the employ of the Rock lsland road thirty years. He was transterred to Coun- cll Blufts five years ago from Stuart, Ia., where he was yardmaster. During the last presidential campalgn Mr. Peck wrote a number of republican campaign songs which proved popular. Davis sells paint.

DES MOINES, July -—(Special.)—Re- ports have been very slow in coming in from all over the northern part of the state with regard to the storm damage of Monday evening. The storm appears to have been nothing more than a straight wind with none of the symptoms of a cyclone or even a tornado. The greatest damage done, accordlug to reports recelved today at the weather station and also by the raflroad companles, was to the grow- ing crops. The corn was at that stage in its growth when it would be most easily blown down, but much of it s so small that it will pick up again and make a crop despite the damage. The small grain has been destroyed in many places. Reports Indicate there was heavy hatlfall in Boone and other countles to the north, which was ruinous to crops. A great many windmills were blown down along the line of the Fort Dodge division of the Rock Island and the Milwaukee and Northwest- ern railroads. There was much damage of this kind done in Webster and Calhoun counties. At Slater, on the Milwaukee, an elevator was blown down. At Marshall- town, Boone, Cambridge, Zearing and other points there was damage to buildings and fences and trees. Three barns were blown down in Cambridge. Reports at first in- dicated much greater damage, but they were exaggerated. A man was struck by lightning and killed at Nevada. His name was not learned here. Chautauqua Season Opens. The Midland chautauqua opened today in Des Molnes, the opening address being de- livered this evening by Rev. Frank Crane of Chicago. The assembly will continue for nearly throe weeks, with the usual line ot chautauqua talent. Trust Takea Auditorium. William Foster, manager of the two opera houses In Des Moines, has just taken over the control of the Auditorium, which has been run independently and has been badly managed. Foster represents the theatrical combine and will have direction of all three houses in the future. The Auditorium was built by popular subscription to afford a place for large gatherings and also to give competition for the trust house: Barrett Visitsa Conger. There has been much speculation as to the purpose of John Barrett, ex-minister to Siam, in paying a visit to E. H. Conger, United States minister to China, here at this time. He arrived last night and spent the day with Major Conger. Mr. Barrett In an interview declared that he had no intention of being a candidate for the po- sition of minister to China against Major Conger. He sald'that|when It was rumored that Major Conger might be tendered the nomination for governor of lowa, repre- sentatives of commercial bodies set on foot a movement to have Barrett become min- ister to China. The'movement was es- pecially strong on the Pacific coast. Mr. Barrett says that twengy senators and forty mermbers of the house indorsed him for the position, besides a great many others of influence, but it was all with the under- standing that Major Conger might become nominee for governor of lowa and would voluntarily resign his post in China. He denles that he had any understanding with Congressman Hull about the matter. He saw Hull In San Francisco when he was on his way to the Philippines and talked about China. Big Deal in Land. Willlam Larrabee, jr., and Victor Dolli- ver were In the city today with capitallsts from northern lowa and closed the big land deal by which ex-Governor Larrabee disposes of a tract of land In Grant town- ship, Kossuth county, containing 7,200 acres. The land. was purchased by the ex-governor many ycars ago for a small sum. The consideration today was $200,- 000, of which $214,000 was pald here today with one clieck on a local bank. The pur- chasers were Jasper Thompson and E. H. Rich and thelr brothers, all of Forest City, and they immediately trunsferred the land to the lowa Land company, which they have formed. They purchased other land in the same vicinity to make a congres- sional township and the whole will be cut up into smaller tracts and sold on time payments to actual farmers. Much of the land has never been cuitivated, but has been uaed for hay and pasture. It Is near the Minnesota line. Decrease in Prixoners, The report of the Anamosa prison for the month shows that there are now 442 pris- oners in the penitentlary, a loss of twelve during the month of June and of fifty-two during the last year. The Fort Madison penitentiary reports 445, a loss of seven during the month. There were five paroled during the month from Anamosa and six trom Fort Madison. Big Elevator Project. The Des Moines Elevator company today let the contract for an elevator along the tracks of the Rock Island and Des Moines Uunlon in the eastern part of the city, with a total capacity of 475,000 bushels of grain, which will be the largest elevator in the state. The elevator will be in sections, partly of steel and partly frame, and will be ready for use in September next. Unfon Veterans' Union. The cate for the annual state meeting of the Union Veterans' union has been changed from {n November, which is pro- vided by the constitution, to Scptember 2426, on mccount of the better weather, and the place of meeting fs to be Maquo- keta, in Jackson county.

Cooke of Algona, Inspector of small arms practice on the state shcot at the rifle range, was recelved by Adjutant General Byers this morning. The report is highly compliment- ary of the work at the state shoot. Colonel Cooke states that the addition of the dis- appearing targets and the additional day's time with the company field practice en- abled the guardsmen to accomplish much more than heretofore. Good scores were made, but fow large aggregates.

Ross, a scout of this expedition, panned out the first particles of gold, which was the first actual discovery, as far as rec- ords go. General Custer reported this | | inding, which made it plain to congress and the president of the United States that it not only would be desirable, but was absolutely necessary, for the govern- ment to get possession of this new gold fleld. First Commission Falls, Accordingly, on the 16th of June, 1875, the secretary of the interior appointed the first commission, which consisted of the following persons: Hon. Willlam B. Alll- son of lowa, chafrman; Bishop E. R. Ames, Maryland; Judge F. W. Palmer, il nois; Brigadier General A. H. Terry, U. S. A Hon. A. Comings, Missouri; Rev. D. Hinman, Santee agency; G. P.

The commission first made a proposition to purchase the mining right, this right to revert to the Indians as soon as the min- erals were exhausted or the country aban- doned for mining purposes. The Indians, influenced by the squawmen, asked an ex- orbitant price for the country, the final figures being $70,000,000 and fn addition support for seven Indlan generatlont It was impossible for the commission to ac- complish anything Aand it consequently broke up, recommending to congress in its report to continue negotiations with the Indians. Second Commission Named. The second commission was appointed in 1876 and by this time the Indians had begun to reaiize that they must soon cede their ground or lose it by conquest on the part of the whites. The new commission consisted of: George Manypenny, | Henry B. Whipple, Minnesota; Jared W. Danfels, Albert G. Boone, Colorado; C. Ball, Towa; Newton Edmonds, Dakota; S. D. Hindman and Augusiine S.

Black Hilla Thrown Open. This commission was more successtul han the first, for on the 26th of Septem- ber, 1876, the chiefs of the Sloux, Chey®nnes and Arapaboes signed the agreement, throwing open to settlement the Black Hills of South Dakota. The signers were: Red Cloud, Young-Man-Afraid-of-His- Horse, Red-Dog, Little-Wound, American Hor: Afraid-of-the-Bear, Three Dears, Fire-Hunter, Quick-Bear, Red-Leat, Five: Eyes, White-Cow, Good-Bull, Lone Horse, Two-Lance, Weasel-Bear, Bad-Wound, High Bear, H-Takes-the-Evening-Soldier, Slow- Bull, High-Wolf and Big-Thunder. The president ratified and approved the treaty on February 28, 1877.

Three wagon roads were allowed to be bullt from the Missouri river to the Black Hills across the reservations.
