VOLUME XXX VI PANAMA TREATY Was Discussed by Senate in Executive Session. DECISION NOT REACHED Senators Object to Holding More Night Sessions COMPROMISE SUGGESTED Regarding Satehood Bill to Bring About Adjustment, "Washington, Feb. 120. The senate spent the entire day in executive session con sidering the Panama canal treaty, and at 6:23 p. m. took a recess until tomorrow at 11 o'clock. No vote was taken on any of the amendments which have been jrepared by Senator Morgan. The decision of the steering committee against a night session was reached at a mating of the committee held during the -afternoon, at the request of Senator Cul lrm. who has the Colombian, otherwise kn"wn as the Panama canal treaty, in charge, and wished the steering commit tee's advice as to abandoning the night session. The committee decided that the s. ntiment of the senate was against hold ing another night session until an effort h id been made to reach an adjustment of the somewhat tangled legislative condi tion in the senate. In order to bring about s v h an adjustment it was suggested that s-me compromise might be made on the st .tehood bill. The opponents of the statehood bill never have believed that the measure could be carried as a rider on the postoftice appropriation bill In the senate, but the friends of the measure have discovered that they have the votes not only to carry out this plan, but to overrule the chair should he decide the rider was not in order. Inquiry about th senate today made the opposition ap prehensive, though not convinced of this claim, and in the committee today they said that should such be the case it would mean an extra session of congress, and that the appropriation bill with the state hnrid rider would be defeated. It also was found that leaders in the statehood light were willing to assume the responslbility for thus outcome. With this situation be fore them the steering committee began dlcuss the possibility of a compromise. Senators Quay and Elklnsand other Re publicans who have been favoring the statehood bill were called in and the matter was canvassed at some length, but without approaching an agreement. The Democrats have not been consulted and as they stood out solidly against the plan of compromise for the creation of two new states, they may not accept any compromise proposition. Should a compromise be agreed upon It is stated that it will include the ratification of the C"'ombian and Cuban treaties. After Senator Morgan had spoken for ar. hour or more on the bill, he gave way to Mr. Quay, but before the latter had w 11 begun. Senator Carmack moved that Scr.ator Morgan be allowed to discuss the canal question in open senate. In sup port of the motion he said that the qu-stion was of general importance, and that the country should be placed in pos session of the details. The motion brought on a general debate. lr which the rules of the senate, the ad visability of cloture, the necessity of maintaining in the senate a forum of free speech, and many other kindred topics were .llscussed. Among those who spoke were Senators Spooner. Teller. Depew, Hale and Bacon, most of whom opposed Mr. Oarmack's motion for open doors, on the ground that it was not expedient to air ur relations with other countries be fore the world at large. The speakers differed widely, however, 'as to the ex pedi. r.ry of th policy of delay which it T.as freely charged was now pursued in connection with the Panama treaty on the "no hand and with the statehood bill on the other. Some of the senators avow ed themselves advocates of a rule of clo ture Others expressed the conviction that the prolongation of the present situation would lead to the speedy adoption of auch a rule. Speaking in this vein. Senator Hale ex rressHl the conviction tnat the present s't nation in which friends of the state hood Mil had joined with opponents of the treaty was due to a previous under Ftar.dir.c: between them and between Sen ator Quay and Senator Morgan. Mr. Mor gan replied earnestly, denying that there h.M been such combination." to which Mr. Huk replied that he had been led to be lieve that such was. the case. Tt this Mr Morgan replied very tartly, that if Mr. Hale chose to believe what was not tru he would injure only himself. At tfc;s point Mr. Quay rose and. express ing impatience with the interruption, ask ed K.te to proceed with his speech. Xn on, objected, and the course of the con troversy was shifted without putting Mr. earmark's votion to a vote. Mr. Quay's speech consisted of a long re rt ofi the isthmian canal question. This reading he asked the clerk at the desk to perform, but objection was made, and the matter was submitted to a vote. The result was adverse to Mr. Quay's request, the vote standing 20 to 34. He then began the reading of the document himself, and continued for two hours or more. Senator Burton (Rep.. an advocate of the omnibus statehood bill, spoke espe cially of the importance of the passage of that measure, only indirectly referring tc- the treaty. Kis contention was that while the canal treaty might be a meri torious measure, the statehood bill was equally so. and that it should be voted noon. CHARGES AGAINST PRINCE.

Miss Nettie Cures was the last to leave the burning structure and had sustained terrible burns before she sprang from the window sill on which she had sought refuge. Outside the work of rescue was carried forwtird rapidly. A vast crowd had been attracted by the flames and wildly sought information concerning friends in the burning structure. The hotel was a seeth ing furnace and it was impossible to at tempt to rescue by entering the building. The injured were conveyed to adjoining business houses that had been converted Into improvised hospitals. It was early apparent that Burdette and Miss Curns could not recover, while the recovery of several others was doubtful.

JUBILEE POPE RECEIVED CONGRATULA TIONS FROM OVER THE WORLD. Expressed Gratification and.Admira tion at Artistic Designs. Rome. Feb. 20. The pope completed" the functions of his jubilee today with out undue fattigue. Upon returning to his apartments he exclaimed "This is really the happiest day of my life." "It seems imposible that it is 25 years since I have been there," was Pope Leo's exclamation as he looked from a window of his apartments this morning into the sunlit piazza of St. Peters. This was the pontiff s only reference to his long term of self-imposed imprisonment in the vaticfc s during which he has never gone beyond the palace grounds and St. Peters which is considered to be part of the Vatican. "What a glorious morning for the jubilee of my pontificate" the pope added as he proceeded with evident pleasure to peruse the almost inumerable telegrams, letters and addresses of con gratulations which have reached the Vat ican from all parts of the world. The pope was accompanied by Cardi nal Mocenni. Parraud, Ferrari, Satolll. Respighl. BoschI and Macchi and escorted by the Noble guards in their red state uniforms, which they had not worn since the fall of the temporal power. The cele brated feather fans on both sides of the Set Sedia Gestoria excited great interest among the Americans present as It is said they were a gift from Mrs. Joseph Drezel. who has taken the old homes and given them to the museum of the University of Pennsylvania. On the right of the pintlflcal throne was asembled the Pecai family, .to which the pope be longing and on thc-left stood Count Al modevar. When the pontiff ascended the throne he seemed to be in a kind of glo rified atmosphere, attained by a peculiar arrangement of. draperies by the widows. Carinal Respigh. vicar of Rome, read an affectionate Latin address, expressing loyalty and devotion and offered the gold TIarra. the jubilee present of the Cath olic World, which cost $23,003 and J40.0 in money. Cardinal Ferrari, archbishop of Milan, in behalf of a pilgrimage from Lombardy presented an address of felicitation to the pope and gold, silver and bronze com memorative medals, on the obverse of which was the head of Leo XIII and on the reverse the figure of the Redeemer, surrounded by the apostles In the act of conferring on St. Peter the supreme pon tifical power. The pope thanked the Lombard pilgrims and gave them his ben ediction. Cardinal BoschI read a third address and presented to his holiness the sym bolic keys, one of gold and the other of f-ilver, accompanied by an offering of $40.C3 in gold coins. The Roman com mittee for the Jubilee presented a rich parchment volume with the signatures of all who had contributed to the offering, with another 40.000 to be devoted to the restoration of thte baillca of St. John Lateran. which is under the care of Car dinal Satolll. Other committees followed with ad dreses and offerings. The pope expressed his gratification and admiration at the artistic designs and workmanship of the various offerings, and then charged Manager Bisleti. his master of the chamber, to read a Latin speech addressed "to my venerable brothers and beloved children." In this address his holiness expressed satisfaction at the manifestation of which he is the. object on the part of the whole Catholic world. For the second time in a century, continued Pope Leo, Christ has wished to glorify his vicar on earth by allowing him to reach the year of St. Peter. The address ended by saying that the pontiff was happy to celebrate his jubilee amid the homage and veneration of the Catholic universe. After bestowing the apostolic blessing, the pope returned to his apartments amid the enthusiastic plaudits of the multitude He completed the functions of the jubilee without undue fatigue. On returning to his apartments he exclaimed: "This is really the happiest day of my life." In St. Peters this afternoon Cardinal Rampolla celebrated a solemn mass and te deuxn at an altar erected next to the papal altar. He was surrounded by twenty-four bishops. A spectal feature of the ceremony was a procession through the Immense basOkra. In which took part 300 Catholic associations carrying hun dred? of lighted torches, with magniScent effect. The congregation numbered VtXfJi aad included the Grand Duke of Hesse, the Grand Duke of Saxe Weno r. the Coun tess of Tranl and Prince Hohenlehe-VTal-denburg. Prior to his public reception today the pope received in audience Mr. and Mrs. Danll O'Day and Mrs. Jarae? Boiler of New York, who were presented to his holiness by Rev. Tbornss Kennedy, rector of the American colge- The pope retired at 10 o'clock at night, sayinc: "I am really satisfied with the days Swiss Minister Arrives. Washington. Feb. 2J.

EXPLAINS HIS POSITION Regarding His Association With Assyrian Society. Berlin. Feb. 20. Emperor 'Williams' faith in God and Christ and in the author ity of the old testament as declared In his letter to Admiral Hollman councillor of the German Oriental society. Is accept ed by the leading authorities of the state and church as patlsfactory evidence of his orthodxy. which for months had been the cause of deep concern to theoloigans and pastors. The doubts began a year ago, when the emperor first listened to Prof. Delltzch's lecture on the Babylon ian origin of the Bible, and increased later, when the emperor, personally, as sisted by the assyriologist in showing steropticon pictures to sixty members of the court. The pictures were designed to prove the Babylonish origin of the Hebrew Ideas. The emperor subscribed to the funds to send Prof. Delitsch again to Assyria, and discussed with him. when he returned, his most recent discoveries, all to the dismay of orthodox churchmen and some of the most influential church administrators, particularly the accom plished Dr. Dryander. who besought the emperor to make some definite statement of creed in order to restore the confidence of the clergy and laity. The emperor's letter to Admiral Hallman is the result of Dr. Dryanders endeavors. Other portions of the letter to the ad miral, not contained In the conclusions given to the press yesterday, are as fol lows: "During the evening entertainment with us Professor Delitch had the opportunity tto fully confer and debate with her ma jesty, thte empress, and Dr. Dryander, while I listened and remained passive. Unfortunately he abandoned thte stand points of the sr :t historian rd assyrl ologist. going Into religious and theolog ical conclusions which were quite nebu lous or bold. When he carae to speak of the new testament It became clear at once that he developed such quite diverg ent views regarding the person of our Saviour that I had to express the dia metrically opposite view. He does not rfcognlze the divinity of Christ as a de duction therefrom, and asserts that the old testament contains no .revelation about him as the messlah. Here the nssyriologist and the historical investi gator ceases and the theologian begins with all his light and shadow sides. In this province I can only urgently advise him to proceed very cautiously, step by step, and at any rate ventilate his thesis only In the theological books and In the circles of his colleagues. Spare us. the laymen, and above all. the Oriental society, from hearing of them. We carry on excavations and publish the results in behalf of science and history, but not to confirm or attack religious hypotheses with Prof. Delltsrh the theologlclan. who has run away with tke histtoan." The emperor then goes on to express regret at the fact that Prof. Delitsch did not adhere to' his original purpose of translating and interpreting inscriptions excavated by the society, as illustrating the relations between Babylonian customs morals, historical events and traditions, etc.. and the Israelites, "which would have been in the highest degree interest ing for laymen." and added: "He approached the question of revela tion In a very plometical tone, more or less denying it or reducing It to purely human matters. That was a grave error, for thereby he touched on the Innermost. hllet possession of many of his hearers, which shook and even shattered the foundations of thir faith. It I a deed that only the greatest geniu? should ven ture to attempt and for which the mere study of a.yrio!ogy did not Justify him." The emperor then gives his p-rsonnl views regarding revelations, saying: "I distinguish between two different kind of revelation one progressive and as it were, historical: the other purely re ligious, as preparing the way for the future mFiah "Reearding the former it must be said for me.

Conscious of victory, building solely upon his word, we go through labor, ridicule, sorrow, misury and death, for we have in htm God's re vealed word and he never lies. "This Is my view of these matters. It U to me self-evident that the old testa ment contains many sections which are o; v purely human and atorical nature, and are not God's revealed word. These are merely historical descriptions of In cidents of all kinds which happen in the political, religious, moral and intellectual life of this people. The legLslatlve acts of Sianl for example, can be only re garded as symbolically inspired by God. When Moses had to reburnlsh well known paragraphs of the law. perhaps derived from the code of Hammurabi. In order to Incorporate and bind them into the loo:e, weak fabric of his people, here the his torian can perhaps construe from the senso or wording a connection with the laws of Hammurabi, the friend of Abrn ham. This Is. perhaps. logically correct. But that will never disguise the fact that God incited Moses thereto and in so far revealed himself to the people of Israel." ARE AWAITING A REPLY. Panama Canal Company Has Not Answered Proposition. Washington, Feb. rt. it Is understood that the administration is still awaiting a reply from the representatives of the Panama Canal company In Paris in re sponse to the cablegram of Attorney Gen eral Knox, sent to Pr sldent Bo. of the Canal company, last Tuesday, accepting the offer to sell the rights and fran chises of the Canal company to the Unit ed States for id.(t.to). contingent upon the ratification of the treaty by the Unit ed States senate. The statement is made that the Canal company representatives have informed the United States that tho option of the company to sell the property to the United States for forty million dol lars expires on March 4. It is known that there is much dissatisfaction on the part of the directors of the company at parting with the property for the amount stated, as they regard It as worth more than that. Whether th company, however, will regard the offer of th United States a continuing the option beyond March 4 in the eent of the failure of the ratifica tion of the Colombian treaty by that time, could not be ascertained. William Nelson Cromwell, attorney for the Panama railroad and al.o for the Canal company, had a long talk with the attorney general today, but he deciinM absolutely to say what took place at th Interview.

CAPTURE MORE ROBBERS. Gang Which Has Been Infesting Law ton Is in Jail. Lawton, O.. Feb. 20. The police have at last succeeded In running in the gang of robbers who have so boldly been en raging in their profession in different rarts of the city recently. Some clue was given the police and a man named Mitchell was arrested at Fort Fill and brought to the city. The authori ties began questioning him and he con fessed to being one of the gang, and pro- cough cure Prepared bv E. O. DeWITT CO.. Chicafi. GUS SADR-fi.

He told of the rob bery, of who was with him, and whore the papers secured from one of the men were secreted. The police went to the place and be neath a mattress, just as, Mitchell had said, they found the papers. The other men have been arrested and jailed. It is a daily story of men from abroad of how they heard men were held up in Lawton. and the reputation of the city has suffered thereby. One man on his way to Lawton on arriving at Anadarko was told a bloodcurdling story of the new town of the west and admonished, as he valued his life, never to come into Lawton an si night train. The gentleman put up for the night in Anadarko and came over the next day in broad daylight none the less suspicious of Lawton. It has been only at times that bands of highwaymen have infected the city. The recent arrests call to a halt the depre cations of the last one. RETURNED TO HER HOME.

Oklahoma City, 6. T., Feb. 20. The con tract for the construction of the Frisco northwest from this city has been let as far as Avard, in Woods county, where it is probable that a junction will be ef fected with the lino from Enid. From Avard the merged line will proceed on to Denver as one line. Avard is a small place southwest of Alva about eight miles, on the Santa Fc road. The reason for crossing the Santa Fe at that place is understood to be on account of extremely difficult engineer ing should the road pass through Alva, j which would entail a Inrge expense in t building the track through a large scope Of rough conntry west of Alva.

T., Feb. 20. The members of the public land committee of the upper house Tiave been wrestling with the school land question and have had before them the bill as passed by the loer house, which seems to be objectionable to all members of the committee, to such an extent that some members are contemp lating an entirely new bill, which it is said, has been drawn. The proposed bill will be in substance: "Section 1 Creates the board, provides for its organization and subjects it to present terirtorial statutes. "Sec. 2 Provides clerical help for the department. "Sec. 4. Prescribes qualifications of lesees and provides that lesees of agri cultural lands shall be residents of the territory. "Sec. 5 Reenacts the present law, mak ing it a misdemeanor for anyone not a lessee to occupy any of the lands or to remove timber, etc. "Sec. G Provides that lessees' pref erence rights cannot be sold under exe cution, but provides that the improve ments shall be held for rentals due the board. "Sec. 7 Provides the form of lease for agricultural lands and the condition thereof. "Sec 8 Provides for leasing for town site purposes. "Sec 9 Provides that the board may prescribe rules for carrying out the In tent of the act. "Sec 10 Provides for turning over the present school land department to this board. "Sec 11 Provides that the act shall take effect upon its approval. The provisions prescribed in the lease under section 7 cover the following points: Three years rental annual payment ren tal to bo fixed by the board; without per mission of the board timber cannot be cut. stone quarried or lands sublet; that lessees in good standing may remove im provements; that improvements may be sold for rental, only after appraisement, and provides for such appraisal by arbi tration; that the board may not declare the lease forfeited without giving lessee notice, and a hearing, and provides that lessees shall have preference right of re newal at appraised rental. The principal points of difference be tween this bill and the bill passed by the house is that the latter provides for ap praisement by the county appraiser, while the proposed bill leaves this matter In the hands of tho board. Both bills give the lessee the preference right to renew at the appraised value without competition, both create a board and provide clerical help, both prescribe that lessees of agricultural lands shall be residents of the territory, both prohibit timber cutting or subletting without per mission, both prescribe forfeiture of lease and sale of improvements for default of rent of breach of contract. Tho advocates o fthls proposed measure claim that if the lessee is to got these lands at appraisement without competi tion he should not choose the appraiser; they allow the board discretionary power in issuing grazing leases: one great feat ure is that is prevents the courts from selling a man's lease hold or lease rights, comonly called preference rights; they provide for townsites, which is not in theo ther bill; provide for fixing value of improvements by arbitration and further provide that no lease shall be declared forfeited for breach of contract without a full hearing after due notice; they claim that this bill does not compel the lessee either to pay an unjust tax or list his improvements at anyway below their value as the other bill does; the claim Is also made htat the brevity of the measure is much in favor. Several members of the house have beer, receiving letters from con?tItur.ts in rural districts '.sling for garden exl?. Wiliia?r:s, of Par nee, yesterday received a letter asking him to "please send the writer some garden seeds." The house has not as yet appropriated money for such purposes. Tuttle, of Comanche, in speaking of the statehood memorial said that Provi dence intended for Oklahoma and Indian territory to bo made on sttate. Decker of Grant, wanted to know how the Com anche county man received his revela ttion. The laugh was on Tuttle and thte chair had to rap for order. Senator Foster in opposing the univer sity appropriation bill stated thnt he did not favor appropriating for dried snakes that wore burned up. Senator Gore wanted to know if the senator didn't pre fard rled snakes to live snakes' and Sen ator Foster replied that he didn't like snakes "nohow." Tho Enid platform of the Democratic platform will have to be revised, ac cording to the provisions of Maxwell's memorial. The platform calls for single statehood only and the memorial asks congress to make the boundaries of the slat as it may see fit. Posisbly some of tho members of the Democratic side I of the house did not see the provision when the memorial was called up for consideration. Governor Ferguson did not waste any time in sismlng tho bill relating to taxes in Indian sessrvatloas and increasing the taxable wvalth of Pawnee and NoW counties $SW.O. met his hearty approval. The county division nttl having "ar rived" the Lawton lobby against the measure is actively at work against the measure, and Tuttle and Harison of the houso are for the bill. Dr. Threads-ill. the member of the house Is still looking- for a substitute and early In the session theversatlle doctor stated that he made a campaign on a C per day basis and objected to working for less.

This marvelous cleanser soon multiplies the number of vital red corpuscles, and fills the arteries with a health stream that produces clean, solid llesh and firm, well-braced nerves. Mrs. L. S. Bailey, West Potsdam, N. T., writes thus: "I had small blotches break out on my head, and in a short time my whole body was covered. The doctors called It scrof ula. I have had as many as ten doctors treat me, but none seemed to help mo. At night time my whole body would itch so that I would have to walk the floor nearly all night. I have taken all kinds of sarsaparillas, and used soaps and oint ments without effect. I read in a paper of Paine's Celery Compound, and I could not rest until I gave it a trial. I am now on my fifth bottle and consider Paine's Celery Compound miraculous in its effects. I am completely cured with the exception of one spot on my arm, which is fast going away. I wish all who suffer to give this wonderful medi cine a trial."

I told a girl friend who was taking your medicine how I felt and she said I ought to take it too. So I got a bottle of I-ydia 13. iMiikimm's Vege table Compound and commenced to take it. It helped me right off. After the first few doses menstruation started and was fuller than for some time. It seemed to lift a load off me. My back stopped aching and I felt brighter than I had for months. I took three bottles in all. Now I never have an ache or pain, and I go out after work and have a good time. I am regular and strong and am thankful to you for the change.

Hog receipts yesterday were light but about what was expected for a Friday and so soon after the storm. The market opened 5 to 10 cents higher buta portion of the advance was lost before the close ti.e day's business. There were no fancy heavy hogs offered and the top price was $5.92. Some of the sales quoted were late arrivals the previous night and were sold early in the morning at Friday's prices and weights at time of arrival. oFur car loads that arrived be iore the market closed were held over because the buyers thought they were held too high. Some of the sobers inti mated that the packers were looking for a break in the market and expected hogs would be cheaper today. Hog Sales Xo.

Stewart in yester day's Eagle in which he opposed the deeding of the packing house to John Cudahy created a good deal of comment lit the stock yards. The crowd up there think nothing is too good for John Cud ahy and they are in favor of letting him have the deed. The commission men have been doing business with John Cud ahy for two years and they would go their last cent on his word. If one con dition of the trade with Mr. Cudahy was that if he doubled the capacity of the AVhittaker plant inside of eight years he was to have the deed to the property and John Cudahy were to say he would do that next summer, that would settle It with them and they would give him the deed. "If one condition of the trade was that John Cudahy should have a deed to the property when he doubled the capacity of the packing house." said Cal Steward, of Steward Kelley. yesterday, "and he says he will do It next summer, he will do" it. His word goes with me ami 1 would be in favor of giving him the deed." The commission men gave more in proportion to get Cudahy here than any body else." said A. 1J. Moore, of the Union Live Stock Commission Co., "and I am for giving him the deed. He has spent about $200,000 on the plant now since j.e took possession.

Quietness prevailed in the grain pits today and after ruling steady the greater part of the day wheat closed llrm, with May Httc higher May corn was 4c higher, while oats were lie up. Provisions ruled easier and the May products closed 5?il0c lower. The early wheat market was a disap pointment to the bulls In view of the strong cables and small receipts in the northwest. I he opening prices were easier, with May a shade higher to VsftUc lower at aiVf'c, the weakness at th start being attributed to the lack confirmation of the European war new circulating among traders late yesterday resulting from a decline in English con sols. There was little of interest in the trading the first half of the session and the market held steady, Iluctuations be ing contined within a narrow limit. Ma selling between TrTT'-ic and 77,.c Smaller Argentine shipments than had been estimated, small clearances afal fair export demand caused a better feel ing later and a fair demand from com mission houses developed, which ad vanced May to 77?c.

T The Kansas legislature goes on appropriating public monies for all kinds of interests, schemes and institu tions, many of which are of but local importance, but year after year refuses to do anything looking to the re stocking of the many fine rish streams of the state, which streams are being rapidly depleted of fish. The Kansas black bass, for instance, is the best black bass that swims. A fish hatchery would cost comparatively but a small am to build and run. Every part of the state has its fish streams and many people in every section of the state are desirous of the state building a fish hatchery Kansas is the only state in the west to almost entirely fail of taking care of this widespread interest A bill providing for a fish hatchery in Pratt county was killed in the legislature but the other day, the excuse or oppo sition being based on the proposition that Pratt county has no water. That proves how little our legislators know at times of what they are talking about We were talking only yesterday with Dr. Hutcheson, one of Pratt's most intelligent citizens, about the matter. He was in dignant that such an assertion should have found be lievers. Pratt county holds the best bass fishing grounds in the state. The Ninnescah river, which courses clear through the county, is but a succession of lakes of living water from which tons of fish are taken annually by hook and line. The cold waters of Waldock, Cairo, Gantz and other Pratt county lakes, as also the Ninnescah river, are the natural home of the bass, the spotted channel cat and the striped perch. More lish from these lakes reach Wichita markets than from all the other streams of Eouthwest Kansas combined. There are a hundred ideal places along the Ninnescah river, in Pratt county, espe cially adapted to the successful propagation of fry for all the fish streams and lakes of Kansas. The house might better reconsider the vote by which it sidetracked so wise a measure. S MISSOURI AND ITS "JIM CROW" CARS. "The Wichita Eagle is earnestly requested to reprint that editorial about constitutional conventions and Mis souri influence." K. C. Journal. Couldn't possibly think of it The screed alluded to was- lacking in several elements, especially in dynamite. However, Missouri is an unfailing, source of supply, not so much for unusual interest as a legitimate entity for un ending criticism. Still, we are not adverse to the admis sion that it could possibly transpire that some one might be found entertaining a more optimistic estimate of the mass of mankind that goes to make up Missouri than that clung to by the editor of the Eagle. If there be any such they are gently warned not to be too demonstrative in averring the thing. Poor old Missouri. Shades of Boone and Benton. A bill is now pending in the Missouri legislature providing for "Jim Crow" cars on all rail roads and street car lines, operating within the bound aries of the state. There is said to be a good chance for the bill to become a law, and it is farther asserted that in such expected event Governor Dockery, the chief ex ecutive of. that state, will not dare withhold his signa ture. The newspapers of Arkansaw and Mississippi are greatly elated and southern statesmen generally encour aged over the stand taken in this matter by Missouri. And still the Democratic party contemplates the chances of going into Missouri for a candidate for president. The announcement is also made that a number of Republican members are supporting this "Jim Crow" car measure. Some may conclude this to be odd, or questionable. But It isn't Missourians are all alike, not even differing in degree when it comes to the question of "Jim Crow" cars, and allied racial issues, as they are unanimous in their sympathies for such of their citizens who in a thought loss moment are guilty of holding up a train or looting a bank. Of course no one would be guilty of imagining for a moment that a train robber or bank cracker could be convicted before a jury of Missourians. But when one of their number wanders outside of the confines of the state and in being apprehended is "sent up," how warm the welcome of the victim's home return. TO DO YOUR OWN KILLING. Balle Waggener, member of the legislature from Atchi son, a Democrat, yet the rocognized leader of the house, which is Republican, and who is chairman of its judi ciary committee, etc., seems to have a streak of southern chivalry or the like in him. He is a lawyer, an "eminent one, and as such would be supposed to hold to the rule that only those should be punished who had been legally convicted. But Waggener seems to think cases arise in which the victim too often fails of being avenged by the law and courts. He has introduced a bill which makes it lawful for a woman or man to kill on sight anybody who slanders or circulates lies, idle gossip or brutal in sinuations about the character or reputation of wife, child, mother or any member of the family, and to slay outright the seducer of either. Of course it is difficult under existing laws to convict of murder any one for summarily shooting on sight the libertine who has ruined his home or the life of a daughter. But still such avongers are sometimes convicted of manslaughter. Waggener's bill does away with the necessity of suits for damages by the wronged or the prosecuting of him for having avongod his own wrong, and to the extent of de priving the wrong-doer of his life. In other words, if any person tells a brutal lie about a neighbor, or gossips about or slanders any one in any manner the shooting down of the gosaippor and calumniator will bo in ordor and lawful. Balio's bill will hardly become a law. While the penalty prescribed and permitted by such law would probably be seldom executed, still the fact of its enact ment might have a restraining effect and a very whole some influence. WHAT A LOT OF MONEY. The Railway World estimates that not less than ?27C,000,000 will be spent this year for railroad improve ments. The Pennsylvania will spend $70,000,000. the yew York Central S33.060.000, the Wabash $20,000,000. the Baltimore and Ohio 20.000.000. and the Union Pacific and four other lines 10.000,000 each, with small r amounts expended on various systems in the south aval rarest Tunnel :;nd terminal operations will absorb vast Eums..fnjmtUa.treast.rios'..ofthe-i?enniyivnnia and -Vfcw Xcrk Coil". rail "West "of he "Mississippi there is great activity, each of the great systems aiming to perfect its connections, fill up gaps with new coaetuction. shorten distances, remove curves and lower gradis. The Harri man system is intent on reducing the dlsimce to the Pacific- and the Central Pacific, by means of a six mile tun nel and other improvements, expects to shorten the time from Clucagu to San Francisco to sixty f our hours. The Santa Fe wili Itt.sen the length of its ro-.ita between those points by two hundred miles. Add to these outlays the new money that is to go into additional equipment on all lines and it will be seen that furnaces and machine shops will be kept busy. Some stimulus will be felt also from the fact that in- Canada it is estimated that some $160, 000,000 is to be spent for betterments to roads and for new construction by the Grand Trunk, which has planned a new line to the Pacinc coast BOTH WALK AND RIDE. The moving sidewalk, which was first tried at the Chi cago world's fair, and which was shown in a perfected type at the Buffalo exposition, is to be utilized on a large scale in New York. The sidewalk will be in strips, the speed of which increases outward from two and a half to five, to seven and a half to ten miles an hour. No dex terity will be required to step from one to the other, and when the passenger has reached the swiftest strip he may sit down and ride at the ten-mile-an-hour rate, or walk in the same direction, and so increase his speed, if he is in a hurry. The passenger or pedestrian who steps over onto the ten-mile-an-hour strip by walking in the same direction at a round gait will be making the average freight train speed, say fourteen miles an hour. THE MAN WHO DIGS WINS. The Leavenworth Times says that: "All through the senatorial fight Senator Long was the friend of the ad ministration, he stood better than any of the western men with the president and his close advisers. Since he has been elected to the senate this has been proven sev eral times. General Wood at Topeka on Kansas Day paid him a glowing tribute as the close friend of the president. The St Louis Globe-Democrat contains the following, which shows how Long succeeds. He made his national reputation and the close friendship of the presi dent through hard work. 'Administration officials have taken more interest in the senatorial contest waged in the state of Kansas than in perhaps any other western state. There was no inter ference nor none charged, but because Mr. Long had appeared as the special champion of the administration during the fight in the house last session for Cuban legis lation it was natural that the wavering fight should be closelj' watched. There was one man in the war depart ment who picked Long as the winner from the first of the contest. He would give no reason for his unswerving belief, admitted that he knew absolutely nothing about Kansas politics, and comparatively little about Mr. Long, but still he had an abiding faith in him. It was Colonel Clarence Edwards of the insular bureau. When Long finally did win out in the end Edwards told why he had picked him as a winner. "When the Cuban reciprocity fight first came on in the house of representatives," said Colonel Edwards, "Representative Long came to my office and wanted information about the technicalities of the question. He said that he was a member of the ways and means committee and ought to be posted. He said that he was much in earnest in his desire, and I told him the only way for him to master the details of our relations with Cuba during milita-ry occupation was for him to spend ten hours a day studying the question for three weeks. Long immediately declared, "I'll do it," and forthwith settled down at a desk here in the department For three weeks he did nothing else but study the records and papers. He entered the building with the first clerks and left with the last He complied with the depart mental rules governing clerks and only took the usual allotment for time for luncheon at noon. He went on the floor of the house and made the brilliant fight for Cuban reciprocity which attracted to him national attention. I made up my mind that a man with such qualities could not be defeated in anything that he set out to do.' A TIME LIMIT PROPOSAL. THE UPPER TEN. j Clyde Flich Is annoyed over the an nouncements that he intends to sail im mediately for Europe for the sake of his health. Mr. Fitch says he will follow his original plan and go to Europe for his vacation on the day he booked his pas sage several months ago that is, April 7. And Sir. Fitch says that he is not ill, but going abroad for a summer vaca tion, just as most members of his pro fusion intend to do. The output of Fitch dramas is likely to be just as prolific next year as it has been for several seasons. The fact that the results have been some what different in the present season has not disheartened the playwright. He al ready has orders from no less htnn sir stars and he seems to realize that fam ine and favor are but short-lived In his profession and the game is played best i when even possible advantage Is taken of j popularity at its height. i "13 this the Woodbrook accommoda tion?" He was tall, muscular and in a desper ate hurry- It was an accommodation train he was after, but he spoke in limit ed express time. "Time's up," was the reply, and the man began to close-' the gate. He began to close it. but that was all. An arm like steel grasped the Iron and pushing back both gate and keeper made a path and the young man did not tarry to hear the unpleasant words the gatekeeper said, but started in a full run down the plat form. The train was beginning to move, but with a fine jump he caught the rail and then in continuance of his haste he threw himself against the door and moved quickly and intently down the aisles of the cars, going from one to the other in feverish intensity. It was the first train after the fashionable hours of bus iness and society the twilight train that carries people who have and who make money, to their suburban homes. He met the conductor. "Captain," he said, very politely, "is Miss Martingham, of Woodbrook. on this train?" and before the conductor could reply the young man had darted forward and was standing by an old lady whose generous lap was as full of bundles as a Friday bargain counter it happened to be Friday, too. In the same seat next jto the window sat a beautiful and placid young woman. "Why. how do you do, Mr. Faraday?" He took off his hat. but his speech was all directed to the elderly lady with the numerous spoils of shopping. "Madamp," he said, "I'm very sorry to disturb you very sorry but I have something of ex treme importance to say to this lady and I must have the seat you are occupy ing." "Sir?" "Allow me to move your bundles to the seat opposite. Thank you very much for your kindness. Just give them to me. That's it. Thank you! eB quick, please, as I must get off at the station after the next one." "Sir?" Before the bewildered matron could know what was happening she found her self escorted driven to the other seat and the bundles were falling back into her lap in heaps, and in the midst of it all the largest one broke and oranges rolled wildly forth. Then the young man dived after them, pre could hardly do less and it was a lot more than he want ed to do. In a few minutes he had the fruit, and. with more apologies, he jumped around, and took the seat beside the young lady. She was greatly amused. "Don't laugh," he said. "Don't speak. Just listen," and with deadly seriousness he went on. "I'm expected to make the principal speech at tonight3 meeting. could not quite stand for that, in spite Must get oft station after next so as to of the lady's polite suggestion that It get back in time.

Since hats first disappeared from the theatere there has been a constant tendency to more striking dressing, which, combined with the present styjes. has made the appear ance of this year's audiences especially spectacular. The greatest Influence in this style has been, however, the opera. There the usual dress of the women who sit in the orchestra could not be more costly and showy. At least one New Yorker experienced no grief when the Moulin Rouge, resort beloved of so many good Americans who go to Paris, was torn down. He remem bered the place with no affection. "I had Invited a young woman I met there last summer to take supper." he said, "and after a good but unpreten- tious meal. I asked the waiter for the check. It ought to have been about fifty francs.

Scott, writing from Washington to his paper, the Iola Register, has the following: "I notice in some of the Kansas papers more or less caustic criti cism of the action taken by some members of the Kansas delegation in recommending the appointment of Senator Harris as a member of the isthmian canal commission. It seems to me that with the situation properly under stood there could be no reason for complaint. In the first place, a position on this commission is of so much import ance that no man with less than a national reputation could expect an appointment. Senator Harris has gained such a reputation, not merely by election to the senate, but particularly in connection with the very question of an isthmian canal, of which he has been one of the fore most as well as one of the best informed and most intel ligent advocates. There is certainly no Republican in Kansas who could be urged for the position with any possibility of success. The president recognizes the re sponsibility that will devolve upon this commission, and he is determined to appoint only men whom the entire country knows well enough to recognize their fitness for the place. It is unusual, of course, for a Republican con gressional delegation to ask for the appointment of a Democrat, but it seems to me, and I presume my col leagues were" inlluenced by the same considerations, that inasmuch as the appointment of a Kansas Republican was out of the question, it would be churlish and small to refuse what help we might be able to render to a man who. although a Democrat, is yet a Kansan, and has served the state moreover with dignity and decency and very considerable ability for the past six years. Tho law requires that the commission must be non-partisan," and since some Democrats must be appointed, and since Kansas has no Republican who aspires to tho placec, it would seem as if there could be no complaint of the en dorsement of Senator Harris, particularly when it is un derstood that his appointment, if made, will be charged to the southwest and not to Kansas alone, and will therefore not prevent any Republican from being ap pointed to sorao other place." there arc said to be wholesome qualities about the food which compensate for some of the peculiarities of its manufac ture and the tendency of tho baker to de liver it wrapped in a newspaper.

T-. were in the city yesterday talking with the members of the Commer cial club and business men regarding the building of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas railway from Cleveland. I. T., to this city. The M. K. and T. has built a line from "Wybark, I. T., in the Creek nation, and at the junction of the Verdigris and Ar kansas rivers northwest along the Arkan sas river to Tulsa, I. T. The line is com pleted and ready for operation to this point. At Tulsa the road crosses the river and follows the south bank to Cleveland. The Grading and track laying is being done between Tulsa and Cleveland and this part of the line will be completed within a few months. From Coffeyvillb the same company is building a line south west, crossing the Frisco at Bartletts ville, ana also passes through Cleveland and extends to Oklahoma City with a branch to Guthrie. There has been considerable talk of trying to have the company build on up the river from Cleveland to "Wichita. The line passes through the Osage nation coal fields and a rich agricultural coun try and considerable pressure has been brought to bear on the company to have them extend the line north to "Wichita and the officials have shown a disposition to consider the proposition and have sent a surveying corps into the field to ex amine the country. What inducement has been offered to them was by the citizens In and around Tulsa who desire connec tions with Wichita as it is their nearest market point. The citizens of Tulsa have ocen working hard for weeks to have the road built to this city and things are look ing very favorable for them. Wichita has been doing a little work along this line too and considerable cor respondence has passed between the citi zens of this city and Tulsa people and also e company officials and it is understood tnat the company is very favorable to the proposition since they have been as sured that citizens at both ends stand ready to offer any reasonable inducement to have the line built. The purpose of the meeting yesterday of the Blackweil people was to have the line built around their way and coming up through Wellington. The Wellington people are also greatly interested in the mater and are doing some good work to have tne line built through their city and are working i:i conjunction with the Blackwell people.. The delegation came here yesterday to see what steps the Wichita citizens would take regarding the matter and found that ,ihe business men of the city were very enthusiastic and would lend any aid possible to have the line constructed and would favor any route that would shorten the distance from Wichita to the Indian territory coal fields and also place larger agricultural fields in communication with Wichita. The Blackwell delegation met a number 01 the business men at the Commercis.1 club rooms yesterday and talked over Uie matter. Very little information was given out as to the business transacted or the names of the gentlemen present. The blackwell people were given to un derstand that they could depend on Wich ita to gat the line built. The delegation offered the fact that the road would pass through a comparatively level country and a rich agricultural dis trict by running from near Ponca City to Blackwell and then nearly straight north through Wellington to Wichita, while if they followed the river the en tire distance some heavy grading would be enrourrte red and the country is sparse ly settled and only one large town would be found on the route while on the other routes at least three towns of considera- NO ARGUMENT NEEDED Every Sufferer From Catarrh Knows That Salves, Lotions, Washes, Sprays and Douches Do Not Cure. Powders, lotions, salves, sprays and in halers cannot really cure Catarrh, be cause this disease is a blood disease, and local applications, if they accomplish any thing at all, simply give transient re lief. The catarrhal poison is in the blood and the mucus membrane of the nose, throat and trachea tries to relievo the system by secreting large quantities of mucus, the discharge sometimes closing up the nostrils, dropping into the throat, caus ing deafness by closing the Eustachian tubes, and after a time causing catarrh of stomach or serious throat and lung troubles. A remedy to really cure catarrh must be an internal remedy which will cleanse the blood from catarrhal poison and re move the fever and congestion from the mucous membrane. The best and most modern remedies for this purpose are antiseptics cJentiilcally known as Red Gum. Blood Root and Hy drastis and while each of tht'se hae been successfully used separately, yet it has been-difficult to get them all com bined in one palatable, convenient and efficient form. Tlie manufacturers of tfco new catarrh cure. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, have suc ceeded adajlrably In accomplishing this result. They are large, pleasant tasting lozenges, to be dissolved in the mouth, thus reaching every part of the mucous membrane of the throat and finally the stomach. Unlike many catarrh remedies. Stuart' Catarrh Tablets contain no cocaine, opi ate or any injurious drug whatever and are equally beneficial for little children and adults. Mr C. R. Rembrandt of Rochester, X. T.. says: "I know of few people who have suffered as much as I from Catarrh of the head, throat and stomach. I used sprays, inhalers and powders for months at a time with only slight relief and had no hope of cure. I had not the means to make a change of climate, which seemed my only chance of cure. "Last spring I read an account of some remarkable cures msde by Stuart s Ca tarrh Tablets and promptly bought a fifty cent box from my druggist and obtained auch positive benefit from that one pack age that I continued to use them daily until now I consider myself entirely free from the disgusting annoyance of catarrh; sy head is clear, my digestion all 1 could ask and my hearing which had begun to fail as a result of the catarrh lias greatlv taproved until I feel I can hear as well a ever. They are a household necessity la Hiy family." Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are sold by ranrists at 50 cents for complete treat ment and for convenience, safety and prwnpt results they are undoubtedly the looked for catarrh cure. ble size and commercial importance would be found. The Wichita Commercial club and Chamber of Commerce are using every effort to have this line built. It means a short haul from the coal fields of the Osage nation to Wichita and would bring cheap fuel, something that Wichita needs and wants and any good plan to get a line into the coal fields would be investi gated and if found feasible steps would he taxen to build the line. The Missouri Kansas and Texas people have taken an interest in the matter and Mr. Resing stated yesterday that he expected some thing definite in regard to the matter in a short time. MORE FAIR WEATHER. Snow Will Entirely Disappear During the Day. Fair tonight and Saturday, was the way the weather man put it last night and he has things fixed so that there is no danger of his prediction jumping the track. The weather men and the highs have been in cahoots the past two oi three days and are trying to keep the lows out of the game, but last night it began to look like a low would break in after all. There is a high in Idaho, a high in Utah and a high in Alabama, and every high has its own little coterie of imps and is putting forth the best ef forts to squeeze the lows. Canada has always been a good place for fellows that did not want to be caught, and the lows have emigrated to that part of the continent. One of them got up a little extra nerve yesterday and crawled up to the border and peeped over, and asked if it could come in. The highs said "Nixie." but the low was backed by a blizzard and got in and there is going to be trouble around St. Paul. This low will not affect the weather in this part of the country to day, and all of the snow will disappear and overcoats could be hung up or soaked this morning. GOT UP TOO EARLY. Bicycle Bill Got Into City Jail as a Result. Nearly everybody in Wichita knows Bicycle Bill, a young colored man, who has received a great deal of notoriety during the past two or three years from his manv escapades. No one seems to know what his real name is; just Bicycle Bill is about the only name any one ever heard him called. Bicycle broke into the city jail yes terday. Bill has not been in jail for six montns. and only a day or two ago he told a policeman that "de Hy cops" would never get him again. Bicycle said that when he wanted to have some fun lie went out into the country or down along the river bank, where the policemen never go. But Bicycle Bill fell from grace about 3 o'clock yesterday morning. He had trou bles of his own and tried to drown them in red-eye. The stuff was good and Bi cycle imbibed a little too much and as a result his sorrows flew, and he was a member of the joyful crowd. Bicycle was too joyful, and when he gets to feel ing real funny the thinks he is about it. and always gets jailed. For some time Bicycle Bill has been working for O. Stocker and opens the store on North Water street in the morn ing. The store generally opens about 7 o'clock, but yesterday Bicycle thought he would run the thing a while on his nwn linok- so about 3 o'clock he went into the store, turned on the gas, started the fire and started Business over mi telephone. Mr. Stocker heard of it and Bicycle Bill is in the holdover as jolly as ever and seemingly unabashed when an officer told him of the prom?se to be goou. Bill said he "just forgot." EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE NAMED. Central Committee Selects Their Campaign Managers. The Republican city central committee met last night and appointed the follow ing members of the executive committee to manage the campaign this spring: J. F. Kirker. C. S. Smith. George Adams, Gus Miller, AV. B. Throckmorton and J. j. Bellew. The executive committee was instructed to rent a hall and make all necessary preparations to begin an aggressive cam paign at the earliest possible date. The first work the committee will undertake is to secure the registration of every man and woman in this city who has lived here the required length of time to vote at the election this spring. The committee is having printed circulars which will be sent to every person in the city urging them to register. Women can vote at this election and the cam paign managers will make an effort tc have the majority registered. The com mittee believes that there should be at least 14,000 names on the books before they close. Every person who wishes tc vote this year must be registered before j March 27. as the new set of books were 1 opened nt the first of the year. INTERESTED IN SALT PLANT. Orient Capitalists Purchased Works at Anthony. It is reported that the Orient railroad or the interests backing it. have pur tVi.i Antiionv salt works and the namp of the new concern will be the Orient Salt company, and with a capital of $50,000. It is believed here that this is only a part of the plan of the Orient company in organizing concerns for the development of the natural resources along the route, a part of which must be developed before the company can hope to secure much business. The Anthony salt works were reopened and developed by the Mulkeys of De troit. Mich., and have ben sold to a syn dicate of men largely Interesied In the Kansas City. Mexico and Orient railway. The present superintendent. Mr. Kane, will be reetained and the business will be managed by Mr. Grant BasJey, for merly of the Kingman Salt company and a large stockholder in the new com pany. The imnic of P. G. Walton of Anthony appears on the charter as one of the directors. With the Sttlwell railroad Interests be hind the manufacture of salt In An thony there is every reason to believe it will be pushed to its greatest capacity. HIS BOY IS LOST. Perley Gordon Has Not Been Heard of for Months. In the report of the proceedings of the Masonic Grand Lodge In Friday s Eagle mention was made of a song. "The Old Masonic Home." as composed by one ot the Home boys. Morris Gordon, aged 13. which was sung by the children of the Home before the Grand Lodge Thursday morning. It is proper to state that this boy Morris Gordon, dkl not sing his song wii the children as he was not permitted tc be with them.

BARRETT WON SUIT Jury Returned Verdict in His Favor Yesterday. AGAINST MR. SIMMONS Who Hired Plaintiff to Guard Wounded Prisoner. A jury in the district court yesterday brought in a verdict for $225 against county, and in favor of E. R. Barrett. In September, 1S0O, L. S- Osborne, a po liceman, shot John Donahue, who with another man, was caught trying to break into Lilly's tailoring shop. The police man arrested the men and while bringing them to the station one tried to break away and was shot by the policeman. The wounded man was taken to the Wichita hospital and placed under guard while the wounds were healing. Barrett was one of the guards at the hospital. One man was kept during the day and one at night. Barrett went to work on September -1 and remained on duty un til January 13, 1301, when Donahue was removed from the hospital. He claimed that he made a verbal con tract with Sheriff Simmons to the effect that he (Barrett) was to receive $1.50 per day for his services, and this was not denied by the defendant, but Mr. Sim mons claimed that he told Barrett that he must look to the county commis sioners for his pay. The county commissioners were in cluded in the suit, but the case against them was dismissed by the court yester day on a demurrer. The commissioners filed a demurrer in which they claimed that they authorized tne employment of one guard but did not authorize two men and hence could not be made a party to the suit. The case was tried as against Mr. Sim mons and the verdict was rendered against him. After the jury was discharged one of the members stated that the reason they returned a verdict against Mr. Simmons was on the fact that he had held John Donahue in custody for over four months and no warrant was sworn out during that time. The jurymen claimed that ....e sheriff had no right to do this and keep a man under guard without a war rant, and they also held that he was clearly liable for the amount since the court had released the county from any further liability because of the demurrer. The jury which tried the case was composed "of W. R. Doyle, Joseph Gir Tens, H. Schierenbeck, T. G. Parham. R. M. Garner, W. H. Sternberg. J. T cninneth. Wallace Cooper, L. E. Ro mlgh, W. C. Nerley. Charles Bennett and E. F. Hlmmelwrlght. YOUNG MEN FOR VICTOR. Handsome Indorsement of His Candi dacy Passed Unanimously. The Young Men's Republican League at its session last night unanimously pass ed the following hearty endorsement of the candidacy of Victor Murdock for congress: "Whereas, It has been announced that our friend and fellow townsman, Victor Murdock, has been announced a candi date for congressman In the Big Sev enth; be it "Resolved, That we. the Young Men's Republican League of Sedgwick county, pledge this peerless young Republican our enthusiastic and loyal support, and that we will do everything in our power to aid in securing his nomination, and later his election to our national legis lature." HEIGHT SAVED HIM. Boy Fell Through Air-Hole in Little River. Charles Thatcher, a 17-year-old boy of this city, is happy In the fact that he Is exceptionally tall, and but for that facet he thinks he might now be under the Ice on the Little Arkansas river. Thatcher was skating on the river yes terday near the Greiffenstein bridge. He noticed two little boys on the bank who were excitedly waving their hands at him and trying to warn him of coming danger. He distinctly lizard one little chap cry: "Oh, don't go there mister," but before he could turn or slacken his speed he dropped through an air-hole in the Ice. His feet went strnight to the bottom, and being a tall young fellow he could just keep his nose above water level. Had he been two inches shorter he thinks he would have been drowned The hole was not large and by holding to the edge of the Ice he managed to keep his head out of the water and fiually crawled out. When he got out on the Ice the little fellows who had tried so hard to warn him of his danger had disap peared, evidently having been frightened away when they saw Thatcher disappear under the ice. ORIENT IN KANSAS CITY. Journal Says Through Service Will Be Established April 1. Yesterday the Kansas City Journal said: "The first car of the Kansas City. Mex ico and Orient railway will be run out of Kansas City on April 1 over the Mis souri Pacific tracks to Wichita. From there the Orient's own tracks will be used to Carmen, a distance of 110 miles southwest of Wichita. President A. E. Sttlwell said yesterday that arrange ments had just been completed with th6 Missouri Pacific for the use of its tracks until the Orient completes its own b tween here and there. From Wichita southwest the stations on the Orient will be Milton. Harper. Anthony, Waldron, Byron, Cherokee. Yewed and Carmen. There will be a through Pullman service from Kansas City to all of these cities and inside of two years the new Stilwell road expects to be running over Its own tracks out of Kansas City. For the time being its one car will be in connec tion with the Missouri Pacific trains. "The Orient officials said yesterday that the right-of-way into Kansas City was being purchased rapidly, and just day before yesterday a J12.UX) deal was made in Kansas City. Kan. Ever since the election of George Gould as a director of the Orient it has been predicted that the road would use th tracks of the Mis souri Pacific. This has been repeatedly denied by all the officials from Stilwell down, but the announcement yesterday afternoon confirms the report. "The Orient's Kansas City-Wichita service will comprise one car attached to the Missouri Pacific train and will run through as part o that. EVERYBODY RAN When Snow Slid off the Bitting Block Yesterday. Wichita has no hills or alleys, but even that does not excuse her from snow slides.

Secretary Resins, of the Commercial club, yesterday claimed the dates ior the fair and racing meet to be held in "Wichita, next fall. The dates are Sep tember 21 to 20. This action was taken yesterday because 01 the Central Kansas racing circuit asking Wichita to select the dates desired so that the schedules of the circuit could be completed and ar-a-angements -made to secure good entriet lor the races. The circuit races will begin the first -week in August at Garden City and each week following the circuit will hold meets as follows: Dodge City, week 01 August 9; St. John, week of August 17: Ureal Bend, week of August 25; Sterling, week of Sentember 1; Winlield and Sa lina, week of September 7; Hutchinson, week of September 1!; AVichita week ot September 21. with El Dorado and New ton yet to hear from. The horses in the circuit will begin at the western part of the state and work down the Arkansas river until the cir cuit is completed. Wlnfield and Sallna will hold fairs the same-week, and as both towns belong to the circuit tin horses will be divided. Besides the cir cuit horses each fair will have a large number of other ractrs, and it is ex pected that the Wichita fair will have an especially large list of entries. Steps will be taken at an early date to organize the fair and carnival associa tion. The matter has been talked auobt a great deal among the members of the Commercial club and the fair and carni val this year will be conducted by the business men and they will be organized into a permanent association. The mat ter of organization has reached such a stage that it was thought best to claim the dates in the racing circuit before other towns could sten In and claim that week for their fairs. Each year the meeting of the Central Kansas racing circuit has been far better than the ones before. The circuit is under the manage ment of the best business and racing men in the state and they have always )eennble losecuie a good percentage of the best horses making any of the west ern circuits and the races have been thoroughly enjoyable ones. Good purses are hung up and the racing men are willing to bring their animals to this sec tion of the state and give races. The Wichita track is one of the best in the west. The promoters of the fair this year have determined that no subscription pa per is to be circulated. AN OLD SOLDIER DEAD. A. B. Anderson Died at Age of 75 Years. A. B.

Hyomei Cures Catarrh Without Dan gerous Drugging of the Stomach. Not until Hyomei was discovered has it been possible to truth fully say that a remedy for catarrh was known. This remedy is breathed through the Hyomei inhaler for a few minutes four times a day. and during that time every particle of air taken into the air passages and lungs is impregnated with the germ killing and health giving Hyomei. It is the only treatment that cures catarrh. Stomach drugging often causes disor dered digestion or brings on some other diseases, and never makes a permanent cure of catarrh. Hyomei not only kills the germs in the throat and nose, but penetrates to the minutest air cells in the lungs and enters the blood with the oxy gen, killing the germs in the blood. It frees the mucous membrane from poison ous microbes and gives perfect health. A complete outfit costs but $1.00 and includes an inhaler, dropper and suffi cient Hyomei for more than a month's treatment. The leading druggists have so much fail., in the merit of Hyomei that they agree to return the money to any pur chaser who may be dissatisfied. THEY WERE INDICTED.

WELL KNOWN EDUCATOR Died Rather Unexpectedly Yesterday at Noon, PROF. PAUL ROULET Has Been Interested in Fair mount College Eight Years. Professor Paul Roulet, head of the French department at Fairmount College, died yesterda3- at his home on Fair mount, somewhat unexpectedly. He had been ailing since Thanksgiving week, but he was able to attend to his class and did not give up until a day or two before he died. While his death was not ex pected quite so soon, it has been known to himself and his friends for several days that his illness was fatal and when the awful moment came Professor Rou let faced it with contentment. The disease from which Professor Rou let suffered and died is, to some extent, in dispute and is not quite settled satis factorily to the physicians. The prevail ing medical opiniovj is that he had what Is known as '"pernicious anaemia." a famine of red corpuscles in the blood; while others think or have some reason to believe that he died from a cancer of the liver. It is quite settled that his liver was badly affected. Professor Roulet came to Fairmount eight years ago. He was for years the friend and colleague of President Morri son of the college, in the upbuilding of Drury College at Springfield, Mo. At Drury he was In the chair of mathemat ics and engineering, but his choice and love was to teach French. He was so zealous in that line that it said he held the teaching of French to be the most important branch in a university course Professor Roulet was born in Switzer land fifty-nine years ago, but came tc this country when he was very young. In boyhood he was much in the compan ionship of Senator Tom Piatt, of New York, and iip till the day of his death he held the noted political manipulator in the highest regard. He defended his old boyhood friend on all occasions when it became necessary- The deceased had a disposition that never tolerated worry or allowed him to borrow trouble. His horizon was always cloudless and his days were always fair. His temper was never known to be ruf fied over anything and he was the jolly man of the college faculty. A wife, one daughter and two sons survive Professor Roulet. One of the sons is connected with the Missouri Pa cific road and the other is a physician attached to the medical college of Dallas jcxas. Until this son arrives nothing definite will be known concerning tht time of burial or the funeral arrange ments except that services will be con ducted by Dr. N. J. Morrison and that the pall-bearers will be selected frdm the college faculty. COMMITTEES COME TODAY. A. O. U. W. Meeting Begins at Nine o'Clock Today.

A very few business men in the city have failed to comply with the requests of the soliciting committee, but enough money has been secured to pay all ex penses and give the visitors a fitting re ception.

All candidates who have been examined will take the first degree tonight, and those who are examined between now and Sunday will take the first degree Monday night. Deputy H. J.

The whole is encased In a morocco covered box. lined with silk, and fastened with a silver clasp. It will nake a fine present and a useful one. OVER 100 TYPEWRITERS. Miilison Office Supply Co.

GREAT STEAMER ARRIVES. Maiden Trip of Cedric Was Completed Without Accident. New oY'rk, Feb. 20. The new white star line Credric, the largest vessel in the world, arrived today from Liverpool, and Queenstown, after her maiden trans-At lantic voyage. The passage from Daunt's ltock to this port, was made in eight days, eight hours and sixteen minutes. She brought 742 passengers, of. which 430 were steerage. The external dimen sions of the Credric are identical with those of her sister ship, the Celtic, of the same line, but by reason of structural differences to provide increased passenger accommodations the gross tonnage of the former vessel has been 3lightiy ex ceeded. The Cedric is 700 feet in extreme length, 75 fet in breadth and 49 1-3 feet deep, with a gross tonnage of 21,034 tons, dead weight about 1S.O00 tons and a dis placement of 38.000 tons. The propelling machinery consists of three sets of quadruple expansion engines driving twin propellers. The vessel is designed to at tain a speed of seventeen knots at sea. The Cedric has four masts and two fun rels. the height of the latter being 131 feet above the keel and their dimensions are fourteen feet thre inches by eleven feet. Accommodations for 350 first class. 200 second class and 2,500 steerage passengers are provided. The crew of the vessel consists of 330 men, 32 of whom are em ployed in the engine room. With the ad vent of the Cedric the White Star line possesses the world's two largest vessels. Harland and Wolff of Belfast, Ireland, are the Cedric's builders. She is com manded by Captain II. J. Haddock, Royal Naval Reserve, who formerly was ma? ter of the company's steamer Germanic and whose sea career commenced in 1SG0. On the passage from Queenstown the Cedric encountered severe northwest gales during the last four days. but. as Captain Haddock remarked, "It did not bother us any. for you would hardly know you were at sea when on this steamer."

The house today passed the fortifications appropriation bill, adopted the conference reports on the bill fcr the protection of the presi dent, and on the executive, legislative and judiciary appropriation bill, and then spent two hours wrangling over the Fow ler currency bill.

PROBABLY EFFECT COMPROMISE Santa Fe Employes and Officers May Have an Understanding. Topeka, Kan., Feb. 20. It appears now as if the Santa Fe would be able to make a compromise with the conductors and trainmen demanding an increase of wages The men demand an advance of 20 per cent. It is understood that the com pany is willing to give 12 per cent, and the probability is that a comprpmise will be effected and the men given an' increase of 15 per cent. There is the best of feel ing between th contnding factions, and th negotiations thus far have not been characterized with the least unpleasant ness. The company has received some wage statistics from the western division which it will use in the conferences. ROAD IS AGAIN OPEN. Transcontinental Trains Running Be tween Omaha and Pacific. Omaha, Neb. Feb. 20. Transcontinental trains between Omaha and the Pacific coast are again running on schedule time, after one of the worst battles with block ades ever experienced. The Wyoming di vision of the Union Pacific road suffered special inconvenience from the blockades, which it has required considerable ef fort to clear away. Other roads have also felt the effect of the storm. In this connection it is stated that the recent delay to Pacific trains was not due in any way to lack of engines or other rolling stock, and Chief Boiler Inspector Hemple, of the Union Pacific, said today that the engines and boilers of the com pany were never in better condition, and that the strike was over so far as his road was concerned. Trains are again run ning on schedule, and the freight traffic, which was also hampered by the blockade, is moving promptly. CASTOR! A For Infants and Children.

I PI 1 Merchants' Association of Neww York Makes Remonstrance. LETTER TO 6R0SVEN0R Believe in Subsidy for Ship building Industry Only, New York, Feb. 20. The Merchants' association of New oYrk has sent a letter to Representative Grosvenor. chairman of the comlmttee on merchant marine and fisheries of the house, expressing the as sociations opposition to the ship subsidy bill. A newspaper which accompanies the latter summarizes the views of the asso ciation on the bill. The letter says in part: "These views were communicated to you when the bill was sent from the sen ate to the house but we have not been favored with any reply nor has any ans wer otherwise been made to our argu ment, wiich we believe is conclusive. "This association believes in a subsidy to aid in the development of our ship building industry for reasons that have been fully set forth and which is the only legitimate purpose that can be urged. The bill as reported from the senate will not accomplish this but retard it. It is esetimated that it will make a grant of J12.000.0O3 to $20,0,000 annually from the public treasury. Such a vast disposal of public funds should not be the subject of rush legislation. The advocates of the measure will incur an enormous respon sibility before the country, particularly if ample time for debate and an expression of public opinion through the press be not allowed. In the short time at the dis posal of the present congress no oppor tunity is given for adequate discussion of the subject upon the floor of the house and there Is no public interest that will suffer through a delay of legislation until a full opportunity is given for a general appreciation of the terms of the bill. "This association will continue to op pose the bill and will widely diffuse its arguments against It which will be all the stronger if it Is tacitly admitted that the measure cannot withstand an ample discussion in open session." New York. Feb. 20. President C. B. Farsons. of the Maritime association of New oYrk, has sent to Chairman Gros venor of thte committee on merchant marine and fisheries, a letter urging the pasage of the ship subsidy bill. The let ter says In part: "The Martimine association of the Port of New York, the largest organization of its kind in the United States, if not the largest in the world, with a member ship of over l.o has resolutely placed itself on record by formal resolutions as favoring such legislation. In our Judg ment the bill pending before your ocm- mittee should be passed at the present session of congress, with certain amend ments which we have suggested to your committee. "American labor in the shlpynrds and American labor afloat, refuses to accept employment at the rate of wages that obtain abroad and this makes it impos slbl" for owners of American vessels to profitably compete with the more cheaply built and more cheaply operated foreign ships in our foreign carrying trade. Amer ican capital, therefore, as wo have seen during the past year, to the extent of more than a hundred million dollars, have been invested In foroign built ships olli cered and manned by foreigners. Thus we see that while under existing condi tions profitable employment is denied to American labor in ouc shipyards and on board our ships, profitable employment of American enpittnl In ship owning has extended in a mnnner unprecedented in our national history. "It remains for congress by the action it takes or fails to take, on the pending bill to say whether it favors the building up of American shippln? In the flrelgn trade, without diminishing the rates of rases paid in our ship yards and on board of our ships. "There can be no doubt that tho Amer ican people desire a great merchant ma rine of their own; that through unpro tected competition with cheaper built, subsidized and bountied foreign shipping American tonnage has been driven out of American foreign carrying trade: that over 90 per cent of our foreign commerce is carried by foreign ships; that congress has by its attention to this subject of recent years led the poonlo to oxpct affirmative and effective legislation: that those now in control of the legis lative and administrative branches of our government have resolutely pledged themselves to provide it: that a well con sidered bill Is now pending, hnvlng already passed one branch of congrera; that the session Is drawing to an end: .that If oriK needed and long delayed re lief must como. It must come now. and further postponement ie unjut to the great industry affected as it Is perilous to tb nation and wubverafre to our true Independence."
