The Jury in the Breckinride Pollard Case, Hinders Its Verdict In Open Court Today, Awarding Miss Pollard $1 5,000 Damages. TESTIMONY GONE OVER Wilson Says One of Breckin ridge's Statements Is a "Clean Shaven Bald-Headed Obese Lie." Washington, 4:43 p. m. The jury rendered a verdict in favor of Miss Pol lard aud awards her $15,000 damages. How the Verdict Was Krel vel. At 25 minutes before 5 o'clock there was a rush toward the courtroom. Judge Bradley and the jury entered atone door, CoL Breckinridge, his son and Col. Phil Thompson at the other. There was some delay in wait ing for the other parties. Every one knew the jurors had not come in to ask for instructions, because they carried their coats and hats. The jury had leen out only one hour and twenty-eight minutes. There was an intense silence. During the interval, the jurors sat looking solemn as the proverbial judge, while Col. Thompson and the gray-haired defendant conferred in whispers. Five minutes passed before Attorney Carlisle representing Miss Pollard en tered. Judge Bradley requested the people to refrain from demonstrations. Then the verdict of $15,000 for the plain tiff was announced. There was no expression of approval, or disapproval from the crowd. Col. Breckinridge himself rose to make a motion for a new trial and the court ad journed. There was nothing but expressions of approval and regrets that the amount was net larger. Among the few senators in the striate chamber when the Associated Press bulletin that the verdict of the Pollard-"j3reckinridge jury was $15,0J0 for the plaintiff was announced to senators and rapidly passed around-the chamber. Whrn the Jury Went Out. "Washington, April 14. At 3:11 the Breckinridge case was given to the jury. Jere Wilson finished his argument at2:3J aud the judge then gave his charge to the jury. There was a lively scene in the Breckinridge court today. Jere Wil son denounced as a lorgery the alleged letter Breckinridge had produced as re ceived from Miss Pollard and said it had been copied from the Wessie Brown let ter which attorney Stoll had carried in his pocket. "Mr. Wilson," demanded Attorney Btoll, "do you mean to insinuate that I committed that forgery?" "1 do not." replied Mr. Wilson. "I say some skilled penman committed that forgery." "Do you mean to say that I was a party to itr" "I sav you had the Wessie Brown let ter, did you' not," demanded Wilson fiercely; "did not "you?" "I did," replied Mr. Stoll, and for a moment, the air was surcharged with belligerency. "I do not propose," utter ed Judge Wilson, "that you shall stand here and traduce my client by the hour and intimidate me from the. discharge of my duty." Then he rumbled in a knowing way, "I know some things." Butterworth said: "Wilson says that Charles Stoll forged that letter." "lie will hear from that again," re marked Mr. Stoll. The remark reached Judge Wilson, and he stepped forward from his chair. "What was it?" he asked. "There is another court than this one," answered Mr. StolL "What do j'ou mean?" asked the tall, cadaverous gray haired India nan. "I mean," responded Mr. Stoll. most deliberately, "that you state that I forg ed a letter which 1 denounce as vile aud infamous." "What do you mean by another court," demanded Mr. Wilson fiercely; "what do you mean by the other court?" Here Judge Bradley interposed: '-Xow gentlemen," he said, "I think you had better not proceed with this." There was a moment's pause, no one had more to say and Wilson proceeded perfectly cool, with his argument. Every other point of the defense hav ing been disposed of, Mr. Wilson said there remained but the statement of the defendant that there was a mutual un derstanding that the contract to marry should not be carried out, and that he characterized picturesquely as "Clean shaven, baldheadfd obese falsehood," manufactured to tit the exegencies of the case. He discussed the probability of a women abont to give birth to a child consenting to such an arrangement and reviewed the testimony of Mrs. Blackburn to show that CoL Breckinridge had 4aken the aggressive in the proclaiming to Mrs. Black bnrn the engagement and declaring that he never intended to marry any 6ne tut Madeline Pollard and that her jealousy of Mrs. Wing was ab surd. The Judte'i Chart e. Following is a summary of Judge Bradley's charge to the jury: Public opinion should not weigh a feather weight, abstract principles were not to be vindicated nor the country girl, the home and the family. Personal pinions, or wifchea based on the rela tions between the parties on other facts were not to be considered. It was only a question whether a contract to marry existed and whether If broken there was an excuse for breaking it The verdict was not to vindicate the charac ter of either party. Although if the tes timony was unfit to be reviewed, it was to be said, to the credit of both parties that they handed in delicate details as carefully and decently as possible. Nearly all of the counsel had observed the same restraint and he regretted that this could not be said ok all the counsel. Here all eyes were turned toward Phil Thompson. Any revolting standards of manhood which had been set up were not to be weighed as evidence, nor were collateral details to be allowed to obscure the main issue. TO LEAVE BRECKINRIDGE. A Suit For Divorce It Brought 15 y Mrs. Breckinridge. New York, April 14. A Washington dispatch to a morning paper says it is rumored that a suit for divorce will be brought by Mr3. Breckinridge imme diately upon the expiration of the pres ent suit. It is said that Mrs. Breckinridge turned over a large portion of her fortune to de fray the costs of the trial, aud that she was nearly prostrated when her husband on the witness stand frankly confessed the nature and relatively recent date of his relations with Miss Pollard. SIMPSON VERY, ILL. The Kansas Populist SUtMinu In a Criti cal Condition. Washington, April 14. Representa tive Simpson, who has been confined to his bed for four weeks, is in a very critical condition, but his physician be lieves that by careful nursing the chances are slightly in favor of his recovery. Mr. Simpson is suffering with kidney trouble, similar to Bright' disease. BIG RAINS OUT WEST. Pratt Reporti Steady Rains for Thirty Boars at Tlixt J'ulnr. Pratt, Kan., April 14. It has been raining steadily here for thirty hours. The best rain for two years. Prospects at eleven to-day are for more. This county haa been one of the counties the secretary of agriculture has classed among the driest. This soaking rain, however, gives Pratt county great prospects for good crops. STATE FAIR RECEIVER. A New One Wanted in Place of William -V 1 1 e ii bells. Two applications have been made to Judge Hazen for the appoiutment of a new receiver for the Kansas State Fair association to take the place of the late Col. W. A. Sells. II. A. Heath filed one application through his atlornej, James A. Truut man, and says he is one of the heaviest creditors of the association. Frank H. Foster also tiled an applica tion on behalf of the fair association in which he says the affairs of the associa tion are being badly managed and the appointment of a receiver is absolutely necessary. 1NGALLS EXPLAINS. Says He er Hail Any Active Connec tion With Trust lUuklng Co. Atchison, Kas., April 14. John J. Ingalls said to a representative of the Al'sociated Press he never received to exceed $51)0 a year as president of the defunct Kansas Trust Ss Banking com pany. Of late years he did not receive anything at all. He is still owner of $7,000 of the stock of the company, for which he paid cash and for- some of it a premium. His total receipts from the company in salary and dividends amounted to $3,700, while his losses and lia bilities by the failure of the company amounted to $24,000, to be diminished by whatever dividends may be received from the assets hereafter. Mr. Ingalls also stated as is generally known that he never had any active con nections with the management of the company. GEN. SLOCUJi DEAD.

THEY'RE COURnGEOUS Coxey's Army EncountersAlmost Impassable Roads, But No Desertions from the Little Band Reported. LIKE JOHN BROWN'S. The March Compared to Har per's Ferry Episode. Kelley's Army Compelled to Go Through Nebraska. Grantsville, M6L, April 14. The members of the little army of common weal which is slowly but Burely moving pn to Washington passed a fairly com fortable night, considering it from their standpoint. The past three days has been a won derful test of physical endurance on man and beast. W hile the men have borne up bravely, even, attempting to keep up their spirits with song aud jest, while wading in the snow and mud with the storm penetrating their rags with ease; the horses have been the greatest stif erers. From the start two horses have been attached to the commissary, band and supply wagons. The long march had told on the animals before Uniontown was reached but when the climbing of the mountains had begun, tiie poor creatures were barely able to struggle along. It was thought at one time Thursday that the wagons could not be brought to this town. The panorama wagon norse gave completely out and was removed and the Texas pony Princess, used by Oklahoma Sam, was harnessed up. Ail day Thursday the army straggled along forover two miles on the national pike. Each of the live communes is placed in the rear of a wagon. Thus as the march progressed the horses dropped further and further to the rear, scattering the forces to an unusual degree. The men are in good spirits today but they have experienced the discomforts of mountain travel, that they rather dread the tramp of fourteen miles toFrostburg. The road is reported to be in a bad con dition. This with the other drawbacks to speedy traveling w ill result in a con sumption of at least live hours before the camp is settled for the night. POLICE OT DEEDED. Mayor of Grand Island Vouches for tha Industrials Ooocl Character. Omaha,-April 14. The San Francisco branch of the industrial army reached North Platte, Neb., in 27 Union Pacific box cars, at 8:20 this morning, and after a stop of ten minutes to change engines, proceeded to Willow Island, a 6iding thirty miles east, where breakfast was taken. President McLaughlin, of the Grand Island city council, met the army there and after seeing how orderly the soldiers were, he wired the mayor and chief of police of his city that the special force of officers ordered to meet the train could be disbanded and all that was necessary to be done to see that a big box of coffee and 500 pounds of bread were on hand to help feed the soldiers. 'i he train will reach Grand Island at 3 p. m. and will arrive in Omaha about midnight. FOREBODES I NsUKRECTIOX.. Grand faster SoT.reitn Says Coxey's Movement is Like John llrown'i. Boston, April 14. In an interview to day Grand Master Workman Sovereign said Coxey's movement was the forebod ing of an insurrection. Thousand of toilers were watching it, ready to resent any abuse the army may receive from municipal, state or national officials. The army was to workingmen today what John Brown's party was to the slaves before the war. RINGLING'S SHOW. It Will Exhibit at Tnpaka on Monday, May 14 h. B. M.

Hinton, whose John Brown's book is soon to be issued from the press of Funk Wagnall's New York, has J I II:.. l given iiiti iitsiurictti society prooi prints of some of the portraits and fac similes which are to appear in the book: two of John Brown, and many other well known Kansas pioneers; fac similes of poems by William D. Howells, Edna Dean Proctor, and Edmond C. Steadman, and of the commission of George B. Gill as secretary of the treasury in accord ance with the provisions of John Brown's provisional constitution. MORE FAKE NEWS. Sow the Capital "Published a Biased Re port In the Liswood Wreck Case. Some of our Kansas cotemporaries are evidently getting onto the ways of the Capital as will appear from the follow ing item taken from the last issue of the Clay Center Times: "Both the Capital and Kansas City Journal insist that the jury in the Linwood wrecking case tried in this county last week stood nine hi favor ot the Rock Island road to three against. The fact of the matter is that the jury stood eleven against the road aud one for ft. By tiie way. tor straight news tire reiwrts of that trial in the Capital were wonderfully biased. An un prejudiced person miht have guessed that tho correspondent was boarding with the Koek island crowd and drawiug his pav from the same source, as he probably was.' It was very apparent from the reports themselves, that they were written in the interests of the Rock Island com pany. For the purpose of gaining more in formation upon the subject a reporter called at the office of A. L Williams, general attorney of the Union Pacific system this morning. Mr. Williams was out of the city, but Mr. Loo mis. his as sistant, was in the office and did not seem averse to telling what he knew and thought' about the Capital reports con cerning this case. "Jlr; Loomis, have you any informa tion in regard to the Capital reports of the Linwood wreck case recently tried at Clay Center, and especially, as to whether those reports wero corrects" I am fully informed about those re ports, and know them to have been not only incorrect, but intentionally so. The correspondent of the Capital was sent to .Clay Center as the paid servant of the Rock Island company to write up the case in the interests of that company." "Was there any color for the report which appeared in last Sunday's Capital, to the effect that upon the discharge of the jury, they stood nine- for the Rock Island, and three for the plaintiff r" 'Absolutely none. The jury stood eleven for the plaintiff and one for the Rock Island Co. from the time they went to the jury room until they were dis charged. This information was freely given out by all of the jurors as soon as they- were discharged, and there was no possible chance for any doubt upon the subject. The statement of the Capi tal's correspondent in reference tonineof the jurors being for the Rock Island company was a willful falsehood. I will say further that before the case was sub mitted to the jury it was well known to myself and several other parties that the jury would hang, and we also knew the name of the man who would hang it. I am satisfied that the Capital correspond ent not only knew before the case was submitted to the jury that it would stand eleven to one, but also knew who the one was, and knew why the jury would stand eleven to one. If the correspondent of the Capital had actually been in Clay Center at the time the jury was discharged, he would have known as common street talk, that the foreman of the jury, in the presence of' all the -other, jurymen, de nounced the man who hung the jury, as having been bought and paid to do it. And he wourfd have known that the en tire community, without regard to their feelings in reference to the controversy between the two roads, believed the i'ore mau told the truth." "Mr. Loomis, can you briefly state the nature of the controversy between the different parties to that case?" I can. Upon the second of January last, a Rock Island freight train ran into a Union Pacific freight train at Linwood, Kansas, killing seven or eight persons who were on the Union Pacific train. The rear lights of the Union Pacific train were continuously and plainly visible from the Rock Island train for at least a mile and a half beyond the point of the collision, and the men in charge of the Rock Island train knew the Union Pacific train was immediately ahead of them, for the Rock Island train had pushed the Union Pacific train over a grade at Law rence, which was the station west of the point where the collision occured. The collision was necessarily the result of negligence upon the part of one or both of the companies. Both could not be guilty, but both could not be innocent. Any effort made by one company to exorerate itself would of necessity have a tendency to throw the blame upon the other. Casper Dit mar, one of the parties injured in the wreck, sued both companies. In the trial which followed each road claimed that the collision was the fault of the other, and it was therefore, a legitimate tight between the two companies to establish the guilt of the other, but the question belonged to the courts and not. to the newspapers. The case, however, from start to finish, was tried in the Capital, contemporaneously with its trial at Clay ('enter. For this purpose the Rock Island company hired a reporter to send an account of what did not take place, to the Capital. The reports which appeared in the Capital from day to day were so favorable for the Rock Island company that it was necessary to make a more favorable showing as to how the jury stood, upon their discharge, than the facts would warrant. The correspondent therefore drew upon his imagination and stated that nine of the jurors were for the Rock Island company, knowing at the time he made the statement that only one of the jurors was in favor of that company."

Governor Tillman has begun to dismiss from the military service of the state those com panies which failed to respond to his call during the Darlington trouble. lie wrote a letter today to the captain of one company which failed to respond, telling him that he did not want such "recre ants" of South Carolina in her military service.

Two of the Biggest Railroads in the West, May Build Into Topeka Within the Year. BOTH ARE MOVING. Alton and Burlington Want the Kansas Business. AnAir Line Between Topeka and Kansas City Proposed. Two of the strongest railroad systems in the west have their eyes on Topeka and it is easily within the range of the possible that they will both be running their trains direct from Chicago into To peka before long. These two railroads are the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy and the Chicago and Alton. Both of these roads have been anxious to get into Kansas ever since tne Rock Island built into this territory. Their jealousy for the Rock Island aud their fear that the Santa Fe may at any time break its traffic arrangement with them and refuse to pool with them on eastern business. If the Santa Fe should do this and assist on carrying all the fceight from Kansas lines into Chicago over its own lines the Burlington and the Alton would suffer heavily and would be forced to build into Kansas in order to protect them selves. What Harrison Said. To a Stat& Journal reporter today Mayor T. W. Harrison said: "When I was in Kansas City a few days ago, I had a long talk with some railroad in vestors who were making inquiries about l'opeka. 'They told me that they are and have been for some time contem plating the building of an air line railroad between Kansas City and Topeka to be, at its completion, turned over to either the Burlington or Alton, either road they said would jump at the chance of purchasing such a line already con structed. "They said they could place, all the railroad bonds necessary to build new lines of railroad through any good coun try, and they considered an air line be tween Tope Ha and Kansas City, the most desirable road now in process of con struction. "It is true that the Santa Fe and Union Pacific, roads both have short lines into Kansas City; both roads have 'a mileage of about 6t or 67 miles between those points. A much shorter road could be built, however. The Rock Island a few years ago made a survey, shortening the route about six or seven miles. They proposed tocross the river twice, and run north of Lawrence directly into Kausas City. 'These gentlemen I talked with are railroad investors, and they know what they are talking about. "The Burlington seems anxious to get into Kansas as is shown by their building their new steel bridge across the Mis souri river at Leavenworth. Thgy did riot build that bridge simply to get into Leavenworth and they did not build it for other roads to use. "If the Burlington pushes on to Tope ka from Leavenworth over the line of the old Southwestern, there is little doubt but that the Alton would not be slow in coming into the capital of Kansas over the proposed Kansas City and Topeka air line. "Topeka should encourage the build ing of these roads." The extension of these two lines of trunk road into Kansas would not be considered a blessing at Kansas City, as it would no doubt result in the destruc tion of the Missouri river as a re-billing point and would enable Topeka mer chants to get as good freights rates from the east as Kansas City now gets.

Kearns, a farmer of lladdam, Washington couuty, who had been couvicted of manslaughter and sentenced to eighteen months in the penitentiary. The board of pardons is made up of humane men and when they saw Lowe's tears they analyzed them and found them genuine. From that moment their minds were made up and they were nut slow in recommending a pardon. Tim governor approved the recommendation aud when the board of pardons went to Lansing hey took with them the papers which gave Kearns his freedom. STATE HO V E SOTES Soma Items of Interest Picked I'p'in K(atehoue and Corridor. C. J. Johnson, of Smith Center, called upon state officers to-day. P. H. MeEihone, "ex-sheriff of Smith county, was a visitor at Secretary of State Osborne's office to-d y. Secretary Wykes of the Duard of pul lic works has returned from Winfieid, where he went to inspect the new water works system and the addition recently built to the state idiotic asylum. lie says that the new waterworks are as effective as any he ever saw. lion.

St t. se cured a temporary restraining order against the collection of taxes by the county treasurer and county commission ers and Mr. Close held a consultation with Attorney General Little with ref erence to the matter. TIE UP IS CO M P L ET E On the Great Northvrn Kiad From the Dftkotai to the Costi. Helena, Mont, April 14. The tie.up on the Great North is comjlete as far as Helena, Butte and Great Falls are con cerned. Seventeen hundred employes on the western division have struck. One hun dred men voluntarily acted as guards for the company's property last night. The strikers offered to forward mail, but as no orders came mail cars have not been moved. The men claim the mayors of Great Falls, Helena and Butte approve their course. There is no strike on the eastern divis ion. The strike is confined to the lines west of Minola, N. D. The American Railway union is a young organization with a large rnem bership, but a comparatively small fund in the treasury and it is a little doubtful how long a strike they can stand. The strike includes all connected with the handling of traffic, including train dispatchers and telegraphers. Last year all wages under $120 were reduced 15 per cent, and from $120 to $200, 20 per cent, except the engineers and firemen who had a contract to be broken only by mutual consent. During the winter the company wished to ar range a new schedule, A cominitee was sent to St. Paul to con fer, but were instructed not to accept a reduction. They accepted a six per cent reduction and other slight changes desired by the company, to go into effect March 1. Then a new schedule was prepared for the others to go into effect April 1. This schedule cut on tin eastern divisions and in some cases slightly increased the pay in the Cas cades. A vote was being taken on this schedule at the time of tne strike. (telly 'ot Coming Here. The People's party league mot last evening to make preparations to enter tain Gen. Kelly's army when it reached Topeka. The Journal's dispatches last evening indicated that Kelly was coming this way. Later advices show however, that the railroad managers had decided to take the men through Nebraska, con sequently all preparations made by the Populists here are declared off. Too Much Volition. County Attorney Harry Safford says if the state house officials are going to at tempt to make political capital by hav ing the Republican school found com missioners arrested, he wants th. m t understand, that he will see that M aw nee county will not be held respons.bl for the costs in bringing a suit which l i outlawed by the statute of limitations.

WATCHDOG IIOLMAN Thinks the House Has Been Unusually Industrious. Washington, April 14. Special. The acrimony engendered by the debate on silver and heightened by the prolonged delay on the contested election cases has had time to abate, jd the acrimony which is to rise over the new 6ilver bill, the ag ricultural billa and the measures reported by the committee on foreign affairs has not yet begun. So the house may bo said to be taking a kind of moral rest and in dulging somewhat in the amenities of pol itics. The remaining appropriation billa are not of a nature to excite heated dis cussion, and of course the river and harbor bill is the groat emollient. It is the one great measure on which Democrat and Re publican, goldbug, free silverite and Pop ulist are indeed as brothers, and it is al most the only one this year. If there be another, it is the general Indian policy, as there is probably less division of sentiment now on that matter than at anytime since the war. It is freely admitted by men of all par ties that the relations of the government and the Indians are now as nearly satis factory as in the nature of things theycan ever become; that the true policy has been adopted, if there is a true policy, and that while the management of Indian affairs is as free from fraud and scandal as at any time in our history the results in the gen eral peace, in the progress and satisfaction of the Indians are first rate. Indeed it is a subject of frequent conversation among congressmen of a philosophical turn that the era of worldwide linancial depression is also an area of universal peace, except, of course, as it is broken by local strikes and riots. Work For the House. This congress has now sat for six months, and the veteran llolman thinks it has done (at any rate, the house has) about as much work as any in which ho has acted. It has thoroughly discussed and passed the Shermiin law repeal bill, the Wilson tariff bill, most of the appropriation bills and a largo number of minor measures, has passed one bill for coining the silver seigniorage and will have abundant time to pass another as soon as Mr. Bland and his eolaborers can get it into shape, and yet adjourn early in June. All this the house could do, but as to the senate well, the duration of debate there can now be calculated on the basis of the hen and a half and the egg and a hulf in a day and a half. Down to date the average has been nearly a day and a half to a speech, or about 4 J speeches per week. The Demo crats think there will not be more than 10 set speeches on their side of the chamber, and the Republicans hesitatingly admit that 10 of their number will not speak at length. So, giving the Populists a day each and Senator Stewart a week, there is a lively hope of their getting through by the time the county fairs and autumn races begin. The Silver Question. The silver measure introduced by Mr. Meyer of Louisiana provides for the issue of $20 bonds at 3 per cent, redeemable at the end of five years, but even this much of a concession to the president's views is not favored by the free silver members un less it be to redeem the bonds already is sued by Secretary Carlisle, and not only are the silver members more strenuous than ever, but they declare that all their advices from home report their constitu ents as more eager for more silver than ever before. They have much to say about private advices of all sorts from the Latin American nations and assert that the ac tion of Guatemala was only a feeler. The message of President Diaz of Mexico, in which he gave England a pretty strong hint that she must take cheaper money or a great deal less of It in payment of the interest due her, was followed by an arti cle in The Two Republics of Mexico city to the effect that that nation will endeavor to convene a conference of all the Ameri can nations, together with China and In dia, to re-estabiish the free coinage of both metals. By some of the foreign affairs committee here this article is regarded as at least semiofficial, and it is taken for granted that this congress would vote for sending delegates to such a congress by a largo majority in both houses. Culberson on the Kreckinridge Case. The Pollard-Breckinridge case had fair ly worn out the interest of congressmen be fore it ended, and even the lawyers paid little attention to the legal points In volved. So far as they expressed them selves, however, they thought the instruc tions asked for by the defendant's attor neys included some pretty bad law. Major Butterworth has repeatedly declared that if he had come into the caso throe days sooner the defense would never have al lowed it to come into court, as a default would have been very much better, to which a wearied Washington public adds its regrets that lie did not get there in time. On the rare occasions when the de fendant has appeared in the capitol since he testified he has maintained an unusual quiet, but his appearance and bearing are quite unchanged. Some fancy that they can note a heavier droop in his eyelids, and that his look is even more sleepy than usual, but his countenance is certainly as ruddy and his shoulders not more bowed. It is remarked as a singular fact that in the entire house there is but one member who is confident of Mr. Breckinridge's re election, and he, strange to relate, is Judge Culberson, chairman of the judiciary com mittee. He 6ays: "The present onslaught on the colonel will be followed by a reac tion. They will show that the money to run this girl's case was subscribed in Xew England (I am told by a man who ought to know that a rich Yankee woman sent $5,000 and telegraphed that if that was not enough to draw on her for more), and they will make a hurrA all over that district that a conspiracy was got up to ruin a gallant gentleman and soldier, a Ken tucky orator who had been guilty of a grave offense, it is true, but who had tried every honorable means to atone for it without a public scandal. It is a plain case that that girl has had powerful backing, and they will make it out a regu lar Yankee persecution. Oxford M aclras India 1 Dairtinga at Topeka Shirt M'f'o. Ca NOT DECEIVED. The Buk sad File Know the True I ao.es. To the Editor of the State Journal. Dear Sir Under the caption of "What is being said about the candidates" in the Capital we find there Is manifest unfairness as to Mr. Hoch's candidacy, preference being given to adverse criti cisms, while we of the rank and file who will do the voting, know the sentiment today in the state is by a large majority in favor of the Republican party follow ing the lines as set forth by Hoch. We have nothing derogatory to say of Maj. Morrill's character, but we do have some thing against the political leeches that immediately begin to fasten onto his. po litical body, many of whom, since Hoch's announcement, have loosened their holds and scampered away, only biding their time to again catch hold. We also notice recently a caucus has been held in this city in the interest of Maj. Morrill, and prominent among the supporters present was a prominent railroad official and one who has held himself in the "push" in the interest of railroad legislation. The Republican party in this state has cer tainly been very progressive and lenient as to railroads, and no doubt intends in the future to deal justly, but the era is past when our legislative halls are to be tilled with railroad attorneys and officials hired to legislate in the "interests of the people." Xo, Republicans of the state of Kansas, we can't afford to start the "new deal" save and except upon the lines as laid down by Mr. Hoch, and give the po litical fixers to understand that the voters are going to say who they want to serve them, and do not propose to have great ness thrust upon them. Our discipline of the past few years has been wholesome and if we succeed in establishing new lines, we as a party have years of great usefulness ahead of us in this state. A Private. J. S. COXEY'S COUSIN. The Celebrated. Crank's Near Rel ative in Topeka Today HE TELLS INTERESTING THINGS About the Character or His Xow Fa mous Kelation Says Coney Is Worth S2SO.OOO. A cousin of J. S. Coxey, the comman der of the Commonweal army, is in To peka today, in the person of W. D. Coxey, the press agent of Ringling Brothers' circus which will show here next month. Mr. Coxey is staying at the Chesterfield hotel, and was seen today by a Journal. reporter. Mr. Coxey is a pleasant gentleman with light gray eyes a smooth face and good clothes. He has more the appearance of a minister than a near-relative to a fa mous crank. He talked entertainingly about his notorious relative. "Our relation as I understand it, is that my grandfather and Coxey's father were brothers. He ia my father's first cousin. I know him well and I have visited at his house in Massillon a great many' times, but the last time was two years ago. "Our family is an old English one and our characteristic has been conservatism. They have all been strict hard-shell Baptists, and Jerry' is the only crank I have known in our whole list of relatives. I really do not know what to think of his Common weal idea. It is visionary and can result in no good, and there is no telling how much bad may came from it. Kelly and Frye all claim they are not con nected in any way with Coxey's army, but if they all get there, even a few thousand of them, the results are liable to be disastrous. The prisons are not big enough to hold them, and the men will steal before they will starve. "When Coxey first started out I thought he was trying to get r notoriety so that he could secure the Populist nomination for governor of Ohio. Then I thought he was doing it to advertise his horse business. I will tell you a fact that hasn't been printed before. Jerry gets about a thousand letters a day, now. When he replies to one from a person he has reasons for thinking has lots of money, he always incloses a price list of his horses. "I asked Jerry's sister who lives in Philadelphia a few days ago what she thought of her brother's commonweal idea, and she said, I think he has wheels. He is the most remarkable member of our family. He had been as sociated with his father in business but a few years ago they had a quarrel and Jerry is now running the business alone. Carl Coxey, Jerry's 19-year-old boy, is with the army. Carl is a very bright young fellow but passionately fond of adventure. He ran away to sea when he was 14 years" old. He looks on the commonweal army as a huge joke and sees in it a chance to add one more adventure to his already big list. "Jerry has a fine home in Massillon. He is worth not leas than $250,000, al though many papers refer to him as a poor horse-trader. He did own a big stock-farm in Kentucky, but he sold it over a year ago at a big profit. He has abou 140 horses at Massillon, and some of these are fine animals. His home is not luxurious, but furnished much above the average of the locality, and it ia sug gestive of refined tastes. He has a nice wife and family, and personally he is temperate in all things, and does not use liquor in any form. He was divorced from his first wife, but I don't know any thing about the particulars of the case, and 1 do not wish to say anything about that." Press Agent Coxey is the author of "Yon Yonson" and several other plays. He says that while all of his productions in this direction have been a success he has not been able to make money out of any of them. Mr. Coxey says his regu lar position when not with the circus, is doing desk work on the Chicago Evening Journal The Superiority Of Hood's Sarsaparilla is due to the tre mendous amouut of brain work and con stant care used in its preparation. Try one bottle and you will be convinced of its superiority. It purifies the blood which, the source of health, cures dyspepsia, overcomes sick headache and biliousness. It is just the medicine for you. Hood's Pills are purely vegetable, care fully prepared from the best ingredients.

Masons Figuring- on Buying Garfield University For Aged Masons, Masons' Or phans and Widows. OTIIEK STATE NEWS. Annual Meeting of the Keeley League. Wichita, April 14. "Yes, there has been a committee of Masons represent ing a state board, here the past day or so looking up a site for a Masonic home for aged Masons, Mason's orphans and wid ows," said George L. Pratt to a Beacon reporter. "Have they decided on. Wichita as the place to locate inr" "Not yet," was the reply. "Yesterday afternoon the state grand master, grand secretary and several other prominent Knights Templar were here and were driven over to the Garfield university. The building was thoroughly examined. It is an immense place, said to be the largest school building in the country, being 200x230 feet, with an auditorium in the center that will seat 3,500 people comfortably, and has already cost 200, 000. "An agent of Mr. Harding, the owner of the building, is here from Boston for the purpose of making a proposition soon. Other propositions from other peo ple for land or buildings will be received and the board of trade will be asked to make a proposal. The order has $125, 000 for immediate use and as much more as may be necessary. "The board desires a central location with good railroad facilities, aid of course there are other places that will compete for the prize. Just where it will go is as yet undecided" There are only a half-dozen of these Masonic homes in the United State3. From a Mason it was learned that a committee of seventeen will locate this home, and that eleven out of the number are prepossessed in Wichita's favor, everything else being equal. The local committeemen are Pratt, McCall and Torrington. LEASED DOSIPHAN LAKE. Atchison Fishing; and Hunting Club to Beautiry It lot Its Use. Atchisok, April 14. The Fishing and Hunting club which received a charter last week has given up the idea of leas ing the Pass and has leased Doniphan lake instead. A strip of land 40 feet wide extending along the borders of the lake haa been secured and the club is looking for more. Tip Young is presi dent nd George Bryning is secretary and treasurer. The lake, which is about a quarter of a mile wide and two and a half miles long, will be made an ideal sportnian'3 lake. It will be stocked with game fish. Next winter it is proposed to cut down large trees and lay them on the ice, which in the spring will make splendid fishing holes. Boats will be put on the lake and it is said a small steamer will be run for the benefit of members. There 13 an excellent beach of clear white sand extending out into the lake as far as one can wade, and the bathing is unexcelled. The club intends in the course of time to erect a club house. Some of the most substantial business men in the city are projectors of the plan and it is bound to be a success. The lake is one of the most beautiful sheets of water in Kansas.

A Prominent NewY'ork Man Dies in Siirht of Food. WHY COULD THIS BE SO! It Is Clearly Explained, and the Fear ful Danger That Is I lancinfc Over Other People Fully Itevealed. "Thousands of men and women in New York and throughout the land are starv ing although they have plenty of money to buy the best of food!"' These startling words were recently ut tered by a prominent physician, whose residence, situated in one of the best parts of Fifth avenue, ia daily thronged with fashionable patients, lie made the above remarkable statement to a reporter in the course of an interview. "I say," he continued, "that they are starving to,, death slowly, but surely. But the pity of it is that few of them re alize it. Most of them eat plenty of food, often live in luxury, but still they remain thin and emaciated, appear to be con eumptive. Why is it, do you ask? It U simply because the food they eat does them no good. Their systems do net as similate it, or extract the proper amount of nourishment from it. No wonder they grow weak, pale, thin and puny. Iu plain English, they are starving to death exactly as if they were shut up iu a dungeon and given only half the amount of food they need. Nine out of every ten people you meet are sufferiug from the most terrible disease of modern times; that is, indigestion and the ina bility to assimilate the food which is eaten. I know a prominent man who died recently from just this cause." "What do you advise such people to do, doctor?" the reporter asked. v "I will tell you what they ought to do and what they ought not to do. What people need is a liesh-former. Scientilic investigators have proved that a pure starch food is the only flesh-former w hich builds up the system and is instantly as similated by weakened digestive organs. Taking advantage of this fact one of the greatest scientists the world has ever known devoted a lifetime to experiment and research. He at last obtained a true fi esh-forming food, the essence of nour ishment, a puro starch food It is known as Paskola. "This wonderful preparation is taken during the meals just as it is put up. It-s immediate effect is to enter the system. directly assimilate and enable the food that is eaten to be likewise digesti'd. The result is the extraction of every par ticle of nourishment from the food eaten, added to that imparled by Paskola. Unlike the cod-liver oil emulsions and other rancid, fatty mixtures, it can be en joyed by people who have the weakest stomachs." "You don't approve of fats, then, doc tor?" "By no means. Their use for guinin;: flesh and strength is a relic of barbar ism. They give neither strength, il-.-h nor warmth. Millions of .thin, pale, con sumptive persons remember the delu sive hopea of recovery they were led to indulge in by the advertisement of tbesx fat and oil compounds or emulsions, and how their hopes faded into bitter disap pointment. How can anyone ex pee: to get well and strong by taking nans, eating, sickening doses of oils and fats? "I will tell you another remarkable thing about Paskola," remarked the physician. "It is artificially digest ed, so that it is absorbed at once. It requires no digestion when it enters the stomach. In this way Pas kola imparts strength to the weak, and makes thin, fragile persons plump and robust. There never has been anything like it for promptly relieving ex haustion and tired feelings. People who take Paskola are advised to weigh them selves when they commence taking it, and observe the wonderful effect pro duced after a short time. They will find their weight has greatly increased and their general health vastly improved. The progress of science is indeed won derful, and in no way have I been so im pressed with this fact as by this rreat discovery, Paskola, which is certainly the grandest thing for weak, thin, debili tated people that was ever brought out. I urge everyone who needs more healthy flesh, more sound vigor and strength, to try Paskola, and they will be astonished and gratified at its wonderful effect up on them." A pamphlet giving full particulars re specting Paskola will be sent on applica tion to the Pre-Digested Food Co., 3 J Reades street, New York City. 1)11. KEELEY SU EI). Chan. F.

Topeka Meet of TO INDUCE THE BURLINGTOX TO COME A Chance for Topeka to et Another BIS Railroad The Speakers Are ta Earnest, In pursuance of the call. Issued by the chairman and secretary of the Commer cial club of North Topeka, there was a large representative assemblage of north Bide business men at the engine house last night. They seerr.edto understand what they were there for and no time was lost in getting down to business. Much enthu siasm was manifested. In the absence of the chairman, S. O. tlrmy was called upon to preside. Postmaster A. J. Arnold was the first speaker and immediately launched Into the subject of the Burlington railroad. He said that it is a well known fact that the road has long been desirous of com ing to tnis citv, ana tnat recently it nas had its representative here looking over the ground; that a Leavenworth man had told him that it was worth more to the city than any other road they had. He said every movement for the material ad vancement of Topeka that had amounted to anvthine had started in North Topeka and he looked lor great results irom tnis meeting. lie was followed by James Thompson who said he had endeavored to get up a general meeting which would include gentlemen from the south side Dut naa not met with any encouragement. Sam Dolman said he had been in cor respondence with officials of the Burling ton for some months past ana jvas con vinced that they had an eye on Topeka from the fact that their replies had been evasive. He moved the appointment of a com mittee of three to draft resolutions to be forwarded to the officers of the company and the chair appointed on the commit tee Sam Dolman, A. J. Arnold and James Thompson. Harry Safford was subse quently added to the committee. While they were preparing a report the meeting was addressed by Judge Casey whose remarks were in line with those of the gentleman preceding him. The committee reported the following resolutions, which was unanimously adopted: Resolved, That, we, the business men and citizens of the First ward, city of Topeka, most cordially invite the C, B. Q. R. R. Co. to build into Topeka and hereby pledge said railroad company our united support and influence in securing terminal facilities and patronage. Resolved, Further, that a copy of these resolutions be furnished and for warded by the secretary to the president of said company. Geo. B. Payne, secretary of the club, presented some data relative to the busi ness done on this Bide by the other roades. His figures showed that the amount of grain shipped to North To peka by the Santa Fe alone for the year ending July 1, 1893, was 1,458 cars. AI lowing the same amount to the other roads would make the total about 4,000 cars. The amount of flour shipped out of North lopeka by the same road dur ing the same period, was 435 cars. Allow ing the same amount to the other roads would make a total of about 1,300 cars, It was decided to forward a compilation of these figures with the resolutions. An all important question on this sub ject is: "Did the Burlington build its magnificent steel bridge at Leavenworth merely to run into that cityi The meeting adjourned for one week. LOCAL MENTION.
