The taking up for consulta- tlon of the measures proposed for prevent- ing dealings in futures in the commodities markets showed the persistence of the forces at work in directions which are not relished by those most active in speculative movements.

PIERRE, 8 D, Jan 18—(Speelal)—At & meeting of the oitisens here last evening two propositions were started: whidh Wie expeoted to help In the me or of Missourl river navigation. One of them was in the way of the calllng of & meeting of South Dakotans at Plerre some tima the latter part of February or first of March to dis- cuss rlver navigation, one of the main purposes being to seeure eo-operation of others than those Immediately along the stroam. Speakers of natlonal prominence ‘while at the Omaha meeting gave the South Dakota t | delegation assurance that If they would ecall Psuch a meetin® the latter part of February or early in March they could be present and assist In the work of showing the benefits of Missouri river navigation, not only to the towns along the stream, but to the whole of the northiest. A sommit. appointed to confer with the men in the natiohal waterways move- ment who can be here for such a meeting and the dates which will be sdtfstactory to them, and as soon as these facts can be learned a call will be sent out and oftictals of citles and counties be asked to name delegates to such a meeting at this city, Another move which was started was on the slogan ‘“the way to navigate Is to navigate." After a thorough discusslon of the possibilities of the plan & commi consisting of P. E. McClure, L. B. Albri, and Willlam Borst was seiected to panvaxs the business men of the city to find what they would do In the way . of, stock wub- scriptions to companies to bulld and operate boats £| the river both abave and below this eity for freight carrying. purpdses, and to organize a company to construct ware- houses at the principal.poluts ‘along the river for the storage of such products as cement, lumber, coal and heavy hardware to be handled by the company for the p pose of providing frefght for the boats at any time the local shipments did not make up such a cargo as would be desired. The shipments are to be used only .as w side issue when needed for loading and, the boat to be used for local freight so long as the local frelght was sufficlent to keep It busy. It is hoped by such a move to seoure heavy frelght at a lower rate than that made by the rafiroads and to bulld up & businass of down river shipments as well as to bring such heavy freight up the.stream. Several of the members of the meeting ex- pressed their willingness to subseribe. for stock In such companles and it is exppcted that the committee will be able ta show progress before the next meeting on Mon- day evening of next week. The work ls belng pushed on the theory that a boat operating from here can be made just as successtul as one operating from Bismarck, out of which city about a dozen boats oper~ ate every summer.
