tf -v) t .Hi PX '-''He ti, 10 CKXTS A WEEK. NIGHT EDITION. TOPEKA. KAXSA9. FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 7, 1894. TWENTY-SECOND YEAR. JOIIES' FLO His Chanre of Politics Causes a Genuine Sensation. Tha Senator Says lie lias Not Changed. BUT HE HAS SO HOPE Of Either of the Established Parties. Parties Have Their Periods of Usefulness and Senility. "Washington, Sept. 7. The announce ment that Senator Jones of Nevada, had written a letter to the chairman of the Populist coiunitteo of hid state, in forming him that he hml left the Re publican party and cast his fortunes with the Populists, has created a real sensation. Mr. Jones quits agrees with Senator S'.ewart in the belief that it is useless longer to pil faith to either of the old parties ou t iii question, even if one or both should pronounce absolutely- in l.ivor of l.ei sliver. It id believe 1 by many old party men here that the action of Senator Joues may have a very important influence upon tho coning eong ressional elections in the west and south. Junes id a man of extraordinary force, though keeping himself ahvayj within practical mid sensible bounds. It has been admit ted for years that no member of the fceiiiite is 8i generally und thoroughly popular with his follow senators. It is tail that his arguments in the cloak rooms have had much to do with the action of otaer Republicans who have almost placed themselves outside their party iiues by subscribing' to free silver. Junes' opftc.'i in connection with the re peal of the purchasing' clause of the Sher inaa act, made day after day by install ments, a reproduction in large part of his e-isjy read before the International Mon etary cuuiffiisiiun, is declared by all who havo read it to be the most remarkable and fascinating paper ever written on the que-ition of a monetary system. It was not a free stiver coinage harangue, but a profound, philosophical analysis of tiie meaning uf money, in which he asserted that money lias no intrinsic value as money, and '.hat a piece of paper with the guverutteiit stamp is just as valuable as a piece of si. ver of the same denomina tion. it was by -30 means merely the plea of an owner of silver mines for the pur chase of his product, and his advocacy of free coinage is but one of the steps toward what uo thinks is the ideal sys tem. There aro rumors of other defec tions in the ranks of the Western Repub licans to f jUow that of Senator Jones. It W asserted that Fraucis G. Newlands, the one representative from Nevada, will anuouu je his "flop" within a few days, and that several of the western senators will sjn leap over the party fence into the Populist fold. There are even rum ore that Cameron contemplates a movement similar to that of Jones, and that he will stand for the Populist nomi nation for president. This is very im probable, however, as it is a foregone conclusion that Senator Jones, with his great popularity among the silverites, will hardly oe able to escape the Popu list nominal on for the presidency. It is in Idiho and Colorado, however, that the in J jence of Jones' flop will be most seriou.-ly felt by the Republicans. Both of these states choose senators next winter; both are intense silver states; in both states the Populists have had great success heretofore, and the abandonment of the Republican party by Jones in the interest of s lrer may carry many lead ing and iufljential Republicans into the Populists' runks. It will be taken in Idaho, in Colorado and in Montana, as meaning' that the great silver leaders believe that success for silver can only be brought about by the intervention of the third party. The Populist ptrty has already made heavy gains from the Republican ranks. The Republicans here would not be surprised if Senator Shoup of Idaho, who id a candidate for re-election, and Wol cott of Colo ralo,( olio w the example of Jones. Senator Dubois of Idaho, speaking of the flop of Senator Jones, says: "It will have a very bad effect in every silver state. Jones is a mighty big man. Besides, he is a member of the Republi can minority of the finance committee. He holds an important place in the coun cils of the j arty. He is well lined and has plenty of sense. He has always been a consisted Republican and probably now hold views in accord with the Re publicans on the tariff. Once in the Populist ptrty he will, of course, act with that party to bring about such re sults as he oaa for the success of silver. He may or 31 ay not vote with the Repub licans on a majority of party questions. He will, no doubt, from this tima on devoto himself to securing silver legislation by any meth ods that 1 e Ciin use. His resignation from the. R-publicaa party at this time, when we are struggling with the Popu lists for control of several legislatures cannot have anything but a bad eSect. It wid be hailed by the Populists with g reat dehght, and it is a defection which we cannot well explain. -It is all very well to say that Jones wanted to be returned to th senate and he flopped for that reason, but his elec tion will nat come off for two years, and he had ploty of time to get into line with the Populists -after ttie result of th s election is known. He had time noui.-n to wait and see if it was possi ble to win aack Nevada from the Ponu lista before he joined them, and there wul ba only one satisfactory explanation to the silver men of the west, and tuat 11 that the two old parties, ia t ie rjudga ent of some of the best Re 1 Ui.licans, will ao nothing for silver, and t jrt only W1y to make themselves felt is to join a inaty that will have ao other in terest in view and which places the money question ahead of the tariff or any other issue which may be presented. It is pos sible that we will see two Populists from Montana, two from Wyoming, one from Idaho and one from California. In that case, or in case half of these senators to be elected from the silver states are Pop ulists, it will be a long time before the Republicans will again get control of the senate." Senator Dubois came East to try and raise some money to cany on a Republi can campaign in Idaho. He says he was not very successful, and he is returning home with a very well daveloped dose of the blues. SENATOR JONES INTERVIEWED. Says He Hasn't Clianei!, but the Parties Have JUecoine Servile. New York, Sept. 7. Senator Jones is in the city and was interviewed by a re porter in regard to changing his politics. The senator said he bad not changed whatever. The views that he advocates now are the same that be has been up holding in congress since he tirst entered that body. He regards, and his constitu ents regard, the money question as being of greater importance than the tariff or any other matter the late congress had acted upon. Senator Jones dwelt at some length on the importance of a fix ed stand irdcf money. "If I were asked," the senator said, impressively, "to diirie in a word tha cause of such depression, I should say, it might tie laid at the door of 'falling prices.' The Populist jartyis growing in the west, for the reason that it is evident the two old part.es have outlived their usefulness. Parties, like men, have their periods of usefuiness and periods of 6eniHtj It takes no Utile courage to step ani le and tight with those who are regarded as cranks and seeeders by the older parties." To another reporter Senator Jones said: "1 see that I am quoted as beine: a Populist. Weil, that's all rigat. I will not say whether it is true or false. I have, however, renounced the Republi can party, and can ou longer be cuuate 1 as a Republican. My reasons for takiug this step are clearly set forth in my letter to Hon. Enocil Sirothtr. chairman of the state central committee, which has been published today. 'I feel that the Republican party ia unalterably opposed to the free coinage of silver at the American ratio of l(i to 1, or not at all without tiie consent of for eign govern tneuts, who are to dictate the ratio. I will state right now that I will never again vote for a president who does Dot favor free Americau coinage." The senator placed considerable em phasis ou the "American" and added that he felt assured from the pre sent situa tion that the Populist party came closer to his ideas than either of the old parties. lie conveyed tha impression that while he did not ind jrse tue Populist party platform in detail, he stood ready to vote tor the national candidates of that party, provided the head of the ticket would be sure to sia a free co'u:a:e bill. 31 AY NA31E NO TICKET. The Democratic County Convention To morrow lrkkvttrs I'u,ioll.' The Democratic county convention will meet tomorrow at 2:30 p. m. at the court house. Primaries were held and delegates elected in the various wards in the city last night, and there will be some dele gates from the country precincts. It now looks as if the convention will simply meet aud adjourn without nomi nating a ticket. Things have been fixed that way and unless something unfore seen happens to thwart those who hold the reins of the Shawnee county De mocracy there will be no Democratic ticket ia Shawnee county this fall. labor1Ty conclu d e d.

KING WILLIAM MAD. Astonished That Any 0neDare3 to Oppose His Wishes. Opposition of Nobles to Their King is a Monstrosity. IS YEHY FATHERLY. If They Are Good Children They Will Come to Him. '"Dishonor to Him Who sakes His Kin sr." For- Berlin, Sept. 7. Emperor Williara made a sensational speech last evening at the state banquet which followed the military maueuvers about South Alten berg at which entertainment the king of Wurtemuerg was the principal guest. His imperial majesty had previously struck from the list of guests the uames of Count Yon Mirbach and Count Yon Kauitz, as well as those of Generals Klitzung and Sandim, but the names of tne two latter were subsequently re stored. Emperor William's act plainly marks his d.rpleasure- at the attitude of the per sons named upou the agrarian question. This is confirmed by tne fact mat the emperor yesterday decorated Count Von Doouholf with the order of the Red Eagle. Couat You Doenholf, it will be remem bered in May last, wad expelled from the 1 conservative union because he votud for the Russo-Germau commercial treaty in the reichstag. Soon afterwards Emperor Williara showed his approval of the count's action aud he has now made his position clearer by honoring Yon Doenholf with the order of the Red Eagle. The guests at la.it Liight'd banquet were members of the. highest iiohility aud included among1 them il the great civil aud military oiiicers of the province. Made a. Deep Impression. t After the emperor had toasted the: king of Wurtemburg and tiie latter had respouded his imperial majesty began a speech which caused the deepest ini-' pression. The exclusion of Count Mirbach and' Count Yon Ivanitz from the list of guests had in a measure prepared the way for tiio direct admonition which the em peror, in emphatic tones administered, ilui his words created no less eifect. After a few words of thanks for his reception, Emperor William said: "VV hen I was here tour years ago, I emphasized the fact that in east Prussia where the people are chiefly farmers, you must before ail preserve and main tain a capable peasautry and that as such they would be a pillar of supiport to my monarchy. Hence, my coustauc endeav or, whenever the opportunity arises to foster the welfare and economic im provement of east Prussia. "I he past four years of grievous c ares have weighed upon the farmers and it appears to me that uuder this influence, doubt has arisen in regard to my prom ises and as to whether I should be able to keep them. His Heart Was Sore. "Nay, I found myself compelled to ob serve with a sore heart that in the cir cles of the nobility standing by the throne, my best intentions were misun derstood and to a certain extent combat teiL "Nay more; word of opposition has been brought to my ears. Gentlemen, opposition of Prussian nobles to their kiog is a monstrosity. They are j usti fied in forming an opposition only when they know the kin-; to be at their head. This is a lesson taught by the history of our house. "iiow often have my ancestors had to set themselves against misguided mem bers of that class for the weifare of the whole community? The successor of him, who by his own right became sov ereign duke in Prussia, will follow the same path as his great ancestor, and as once the tirst king of Prussia said: "Ex me mea nata corota,' aud as his great sua established his authority as Rocher de Bronze, so do I represent like my im perial grandsire, the kingdom by the graca ot God. "Gentlemen, what oppresses you is equally felt by me; for 1 am the largest laud proprietor in our state. I know very well that we are passing through hard times and my daily thought is how to help you. But you must support mo in this, uot -by the means einpluyed by the professional opposition of the parties you have so often rightly combatted. William's Latch htriug; Is Out. "No, but by truthfully opening your hearts to your sovereign. My door is at ail times open toeacii one of my subjects and I lend him ready ear. Let this henceforth be your course and I shall re gard as effaced all that has happened." "In order to make sure whether I have really fulfilled my promises, I ordered the compilation of measures adopted for the benefit of these provinces." Emperor William then enumerated them and continued: "I shall continue my constaut endeavors to provide for this land, and the very next budget will af ford fresh proof of my paternal solici tude. "Gentlemen, let us reg-ard the pressure weighing upon us and the times through which we are passing iii the light of the Christian profession in which we have been educated, as a trial laid upon us by God. Let us preserve our minds in quietude, and endure with patience and tirm resolution, hoping for better times, according to onr old maxim, noblesse oblige. A Stirring: Ceremony. "A Etirring ceremony passed before our eyes on Tuesday. Before us stands that statue of William I, the imperial sword uplifted in his right hand, the symbol of law and order, it reminds us all of the arduous struggle with de signs against the very foundations of our constitutional and social life. "Now, gentlemen, it is to you I this day address myself. Forward, to light for religion, for morality and for order against the parties of revolution. As ivy winds itself around the oak and beautifies it with leaves and protects when tempests rage, so does the Prussian nobility close round tay houde. May it, aud with it the whole of the nobility of the German nation be come a bright example to those sections of the populace which are still waver ing. Let us enter together upon this struggle. "Onward with God and dishonor to him who forsakes his king! "In the hope that eastern Prussia will be the first province in line in this battle 1 raise my glass and quaff it to the pros perity of eastern Prussia and her inhab itants. "Three cheers for the province." T WO BAD FIRES. Cause Four Fire Alarms ami $3,000 Dam age Last Night. There were four lire alarms last night two for each fire. The first fire was at 12:15 in the meat market of J. II. Schlegel at 4)03 West Sixth -street. The fire started in the saw dust on top of the ice box and did about fl5) damage to building and contents. At 2:50 the firemen were called back to the same place to put out the fire which had started again. The last time $IU0 damage was done. The owner, J. H. Grice, carried $20l insurance. The other and meat serious fire oc curred at the barn of Speed F. Hughes, 1333 Topeka avenue. The barn was used as a place of storage for most of the family furniture, and two of Joab Mul vane's carriages were also stored there. Tho fire was evidently incendiary. It gained such headway before it was dis covered that nothing could be saved. The loss is estimated at if 2.350. This was divided as follows: Household fur niture 31, 700; carriages, S'iJO; damage to barn, .$330. There was i3 0 insurance n the barn and $1,000 on tho contents. The alarm for this lire was sent in by telephone and later a box was pulled for tho same lire, but the impression was j conveyed that it was another lire and the j entire tire department of the city was j called out.

The Rinsr Didn't Want Women on Central Committee. ASSEUT THEMSELVES. The Women Took an Active Pdrt in the Elections, And Won a Notable VictoryOver the Machine. Row the Machine Tries to Un seat Their Delegates. Denver, Sept 7. The women took an active part in the Republican primaries which elected delegates to the county convention which will elect delegates to the state convention, working iu con nection with the Business Men's league. They claim to have won a notable vic tory over the machine, the fruits of which, they say, the county committee is trying to rob them of by unseating the regularly elected delegates. Warrants have been sworn out for some of the judges and the committee men who are charged with fraud. The contest was to decide whether the tramway gang or tho court house gang should control the politics of the party in Arapahoe county. The county central committee pre tended to see in the just proposition to give women a representation in that body a scheme of the tramway to gain control of the machine. On the wther hand members of tho party outside of the ring, charged that Sam Emerich and his compatriots desired only to have con trol of the "stuff." They didn't want any women on tho committee who would object to the usual machine methods of bribery and corruption. The women joined forces with the Business Men's league aud made the fight to show their strength. There were two sets of delegates in almost every precinct, one nomiuated by the gang committeemen aud another placed in the field by the business men, endorsed by the women. At a late hour last evening there were many overtures of a compromise, but these were gener ally rejected. The gangsters' idea of a compromise in most cases was that the other side should surrender. CIVIL SERVICE IDEAS. Senator Householder Has Some That Ought to Work Well. State Senator M, A. Householder, of the Populist household, beinjf chair man of the state board of charities, is hero today watching the proceedings la the supreme court. To a State Jovknal, reporter Mr. Householder said he was anxious that tho supreme court should clear ly define tho powers of tho board of charities iu tho case which is now before them. Some of the attorneys in the case have said that the board of charities cannot even remove an oilicer for cause and Mr. Householder says he would like to have the supreme Court pass on that point. Mr. Householder has all summer been working on a bill which he will urge before the next legislature, which will repeal all the present laws governing the state charitable institutions and enact an entirely new set of laws. One of the principal features of Sena tor Householder's bill is, that it pro vides that not more than two members of the same political party shall be ap pointed on the state board of charities. He will also urge a provision for the re tention in office of capable employes when the state administration changes. Senator Householder says the confer ence of all the officers of the state chari table institutions in the state aud all persons interested in charities which was to be held in Topeka this summer will be held in November after election. At this meeting Senator Householder will submit his bill aud will urge that it lie recommended to the legislature for favorable consideration.

SHUT OUT THEJILACKS Overmyer Says the Voice of Colored Men Should he Suppressed. Warrensbuku, Mo., Sept. 7. In tha speech of David Overmyer of Kansas, made here yesterday lie created a sensa tion by saying: "Outside of the negro, whose ignorant voice should not bo heard in this govern ment so far as legislation and voting are concerned, the Democratic party out numbers all parties and surpasses all in intelligence, might and dignity. Eq ual rights to all and special privileges to none is another ritrhteous principle of Democracy focusing to the same end as the principle of strict construction of the constitution." In speakiug of his own state (Kansas) Mr. Overmyer said that he came from a country where the Democrats had t.i light the devil, and that one who did not live there had no idea of the scorn and humiliation displayed toward a Democrat, nor of the chill of tho iceberg that is so long that one cannot see the end of it. But the speaker ex pected to see Kansas restored to reason, released from the insane asylum aud take her place in the galaxy of stute, the most Democratic of Democratic states. DRENCHED WITH RAIN.

About a hundred people near the cor ner of Sixth street and Kansas avenuo attracted a great deal of attention just before noon today. In the crowd three or four men were gesticulating wildly as if they iutendc t to annihilate the universe.

Orey and Nick North, colored men, employed at the state house, wete talking for the Populists, Dr. II. D. Pa tee for the Democrats, and Thomas If. Bain and others for ti e Republican. The colored men denied that the Repub licans freed the colored people und D.'. Patee took the position that the Demo crats were the tiuly party which deserveu the confidei.ee of the people. The Re publicans were simply refuting the arguments. Fiually one of Chief Lindsey'a police men took a hand and threatened to ar rest Dr. Patee for diiturbiug tho peao. "I am disturbing your peace, am I.'" said tho doctor. "Well, you can arrest me if you want to. Things are coming to a pretty lias when a man can't talk ou tho street.''

Defeats Joe Patchen in Fastest Three Heats Ever Recorded. CROWD WEXT WILD. Ten Thousand People Saw tlie Heats Won. Indiaitapoi.13, Ind., Sept. 7. The Sag' of honor floats over the track of the Indianapolis Driving' club and tha bun of Terre Haute and Fort Wayne has been eclipsed. Sir Robert J. the great son of Hartford, reigfns supreme as king1 of the turf and the pennant waves above his stall at the state fair grounds. The match race for a pursa of $5,000 between Robert J. and Joe Patchen was expected to bring- forth Boma phenomenal speed, but not une of the 10,000 people g-athered ot tha track yesterday afternoon was pre pared for Uhe terrible slash in of records that beg-ari with the word "Go" thundered fro-n the btand by Starter Walker at 3:50 o'clock. A miphty cheer went tip as Geers and Curry drove quietly down in front of the amph theater and jod to the turn. The crowd became breathless as the horses came to gether and pulled out f r little warming1 up down the strelch. The horses pot off ou the second start. Both horses were at their stride, and less than a neck apait. Down the track they came at a terri ble pace with perfect motion and even stride. "Go!" yelled Walker, leaning1 far over the railing- of the stand, and the crowd arose as one man. Around the turn tht two rivals shot, and at the quarter 313 was an nounced. Not an inch of diverg-ence as to the relative position could ba seen. It was as thoug-h the two great horses were being- impelled by some unseen force as the movement of their legs on the back stretch could not be seen. "1:02 at the half," was called out and the crowd cheered. Still the horses remained together. Curry hanging- stubbornly at Gers' wheel. The latter turned his head slightly and seemed to be studying- chances, lie saw the situation at a fiance. He was in the race of his life, with an op ponent that was wort ay of his steel, lit-! spoke to the littia brown and there was an immediate responsa. Uo forced ahead a nos-? as the two swept into the turn and there was a slig-ht check noticeable as the last curve was being cut down. Both drivers g-athered their reins for the stretch, and "1:34 at the three-quarters" was yel ed from the stand. Then beg-.in the mad race for home. Curry s oke to the handsome block, and I'atcheu re sponded by stru.inir.g- every muscle, lie came up to even terms anJ with distended neck an i fla.-rrnT- nostrils thundered along- at th.i iittte brown's 6ide, but Gers held him vith a stea ly hand. It was not yet the moment for the last great effort. He allowed the biack to retain his place and the two rushed down the track togvthei at a mad pace. Someone in the crowd yel.ed in triumph as he saw the world's record in danger, and Starter W alker called out for silence until aft t the horsea had passed the wire. Up they came like a whirlwind and the crowd, uncertain as to the victory', held its breath in suspense. Gers epoke to Robert J. Curry made a low exclamation of encouragement to tha black. Both unJerstood and respond ed. The little brown seemed to be surprised at the audacity of his big rival and he dashed under the wire, stuck out his neck, and with a mighty stride gained a nose. It was a grand finish to a grand r.ice and the crowd yelled itself hoarbe. A moment later when 2:03 was hung up.a great wave of extravagant delight dashed across the amphitheater and the air trembled as the great roar of triumph went up. Second Heat Forty-five minutes later the track was again cleared and the two horaei came out. Again the two horses faced the starter for the word and again the word was given. Like twin rockets they shot from under the wire and shot, on the trip aroun I tha turn that was to bring them glory and fame. Robert J. went rigiit to tiie front arid moved like a piece of mechanism. At the quarter he led the big fellow by two lengths. Joe I'atchea closed up the gap going down the back stretch, and was hanging- to the little brown's wheel at tha half, which was reached in l:01-9'. Patchen mov ed out a little more and was well alongside of Robert J. at the three quarters. This w.- reached in 1:3 and it was realized that without a break even the fast mark of the pre vious heat was to be paled into in significance. On came t.le g!a:i ators, smoothly and moving to pefection. Curry was urging the hi:,' fellow and Geers, with faith in little Robert, let him oli and he moved away from the black at the distance stand with -t mighty burst of Epeed, and passed under the wire two ooen lengths iu front of his determined competitor iu 2:02'. The third heat was won by Robert J. in 2:04''. Summery is as follow s: Robert J 1 1 1 Joe Patchen 2 i 2 Time 2:03?, 2:2 Ji, 2:04?. Time by quarter.

There were probably 300 representative men present at the convention and as nearly all of them are men of wealth, with large influence and with power to control a considerable fol lowing, the action they have taken cannot be underestimated.

A Sensational Murder Takes Place at Waldron, Mo. Charles Morris Killed While Waiting to be Married. HIS RIVAL SHOT "iiud" Veach Could Not Endure His Rival's Success. Waldeon, Mo., Sept. 7. While Charles Morris and Sarah Jones were awaiting the arrival of 'Squire Shields yesterday afternoon to unite them in marriage, Bid" Veach, a re jected suitor, fired three shots into Morris holy, killing him instantly. Veaeh file I to the woods and escaped. The shooting- took placi about three miles from this place on the farm of F. M. Kearns. An old man and a young girl were to have been married at 3:30 o'clock. It was to have been a quiet little w.-dding. 'Squire Shields of 1'arkville had been ena-aged to ir form the ceremony. Charles Morris, the groom, is a well-to-do farmer. The bride, Miss Sarah Jones, is the daughter of one of his neighbors. There was considerable disparity be tween their ages. Mm-ris wa? about 50. He was a widower and has three children living. i is Jones is only 20. "Bud" Veach, t ie luiu-.ioror, is a well-known character here lie is a sort of jack-at-all-trades, with n- reg ular occupation. Four years ago lie and Saran Jones were lovers. Finally he proposed and was accepted. Tiu wedding day was set, but bjfor' it arrived there came a jar between the two and the match was broken by tne girl. Veach loved the girl passionate ly, devotedly, and this love has now resulted in a tragedy. He importuned her time and again to change her mind and renew her promise to be his w ife, but the girl was obdurate. She refused to have anything to do with Veach and began keeping company with Charles Morris, the wealthy far mer. Finally it was announced that Morris and Miss Jones were to be married. Veach did not have much to say on the subject of the murriage of his whilom sweetheart when joked about it by his friends. But developments prove that he formed a desperate re solve that if she would not be his wife the should not be the wife of another. The marriage of Morris and Miss Jones was to have taken place at half past three o'clock. They went to the home of F. M. Kearns where the cer emony was to take place. Several relatives and a few friends of Mr. Morris and Miss Jones were there to bid the couple Godspeed. It was a little after 3 o'clock when "Bud" Veach rode up a horseback to the Kearns' home. He got off his horse and walked to the house. The pros pective bride and groom were feeate 1 on the porch. Vouch waUte I up to within a few feet of Morris and. pulling a pistol from his pocket, held it close to Morris and pulled the trigger. There was a leap of flame, a heavy report and Morris partially rose to his feet. The re volver flashed again and a second bullet buried itself in Morris' si-cull. The revolver spoke again and Morris fell to the floor without a groan. Death was instantineous A scene of confusion followed. The womn screamed and the men were so ap palled at the bloody tragedy that they could do nothing. Veach was the" coolest one in the. group. When he fired the third shot he turne 1 and left the house. lie did not mount his horse but ran toward a clump of woods and disappeared among the trees. The news of the tragedy was brought to town and Deputy Sheriff W. 11. Nash started in pursuit of the fugitive. In the meantime the neighbors gathered at the Kearns home and organized posses to scour the woods for the murderer. Veach's description was telegraph ed to adjoining towns. Ha is described as being six feet two inches tall, light complexioned, with a saucy looking mustache. He wore a light suit of clothes. The prospective bride was pros trated by the terrible tragedy. Th.Te is talk "of lynching Veach if he is captured. Green Goods Man Caught. Fokt Scott, Kan., Sept. 7. Post cfSce inspector V. E.

Uinlster Denby Denies the Rumor That lie Would Rtire. Sax Frajccisco. Sept. 7. Charles Denby, United States minister to China, and dean of the diplomatic ;orps in the empire, has arrived from the east en route to Pekin and will sail on Saturday. When asked as to j the truth of the rumor that he would retire from the position as minister to China in favor of his son, Colonel Den by said: "I do not intend to retire. There is no foundation for such a report. I did intend to remain longer in this country, but I have used up the two months' leave of absence allotted to me and now that war prevails be tween China and Japan the president feels that the minister should be at Pekin, and with this view I quite agree. Had war not broken out I could no doubt have obtained an ex tension of the leave of absence, but under the conditions now existing, I feel that 1 6hould be at my post although my son, who has charge in my absence, is practically competent, to attend to the duties of the office and he has the eoiiG.lence of the ad ministration. So far as my retiring that my son may succeed, I can settle that rumor by stating that, while I am on my way back to Pekin, my son will shortly leave that city to return to America. He comes here to be married." BRIEFS 11 Y WIRE. William Hayes killed his wife and shot his mother-in-law at Jackson ville, Fla.

Tlx Fhotorraph of the FUU Bette lbB an Affidavit. In these days of sophisticated ad vancement no one believes a. fish itory unless the proofs are at hand. A Chicago artist who is much given to angling makes periodical visits to Wisconsin lakes and invariably brings back large and terrifying yarns re garding his catch. Formerly One of his favorite yarns was that he pulled out a black bass that seemed to bo eighteen inches long, and just as he was taking it in over the side of the boat it got away from him. One night at his club he related how he and a man from Milwaukee went out before breakfast and got over 120 pounds of croppies. "What became of them?" "Well, wa ran out of ice and had to give them away," which explanation was greeted with derisive laughter. He brought home once a long pine 5tick on which were two notches, in dicating the length of a pike taken one evening just as the sun went down, and which lasted the camp three days. "Anybody can make a couple of notches in a stick," said the skeptics. It is very trying. He would return from an expedition full of enthusiasm and large claims, only to meet some alleged friend who would take him aside and ask, seriously: "Now, between you and me, did you catch anything?" Finally, driven to an extremity, he adopted the scheme which gave him reputation. He painted on a screen the picture of a small house, such as may be found at any fishing camp. Against this screen he would h.mg a six-inch fish, the average fcize of his catch, and would then take a photo graph of the fish and the background. According to the photograph the fi.di would roach from the eaves almost to the ground. The length would be, apparently, anywhere from ,four to 6ix feet. When they hoot at his claims and discount his narratives he says: "Gentlemen, the camera tells no lies. Here is a photograph of the monster, the largest ever taken from the lake. See for yourselves." PACKING TRUNKS FOR A LIVING An Occupation Which Oneht to Suit Womu and should l ay in SrHou. What is really a sensible occupa tion that could be managed from the women's exchanges would be that of trunk-packer. In these days of wide spread summer travel, packing has come to be a dreaded necessity with women. The difference between skilled and unskilled trunk storing cannot be fulty appreciated until tho two are compared. There is an economy in it that is obvious. It means fewer trunks, less destruction to con tents, and, above all, the blissful relief to bodies and brains taxed to the last degree in leaving a house in des. rted summer trim, putting fl nish ing touches to the family wardrobe, looking after tlie comfort of those to be left, and all the rest. Thero was a woman who vrapped a silk dress skirt last summer around a jar of grandma's preserves, which she could not resist attempting to bring home with her, who would bet ter have employed a profes .ional packer at SI a trunk. The cleaner's bill was 4, and she lost the preserves, too. The occupation would not bo so laborious to the professional packer as it is to the amateur. The con fidence of knowledge is a great relief in itself, and the "professional' would insist upon the trunk bjing set upon rest and all its intended contents spread out before her, serious helps to packing which the woman trying to be in half a dozeu places at once on. packing day often ignores. Mean time, if you must pack your own trunks, dear sister, Bpike your hats and bonnets to the trunk tray with your hat pins, discard boxes, pack bottles only in cork-lined cases that come for the purpose, carrying them in a separate bag otherwise and don't pack on a damp day near the wind w or you'll find your beautifully starched muslins and linens limp as a rag when they are taken out. A Queer Name. "Fair-play men" was the title given to a part of Lycoming county, la., now densely populated and dotted with prosperous towns and cities. Tha proprietary government, with a view to protecting Indians from intrusion, had forbidden the survey and settle ment of the region, but some hard treated and hard-handed Scotch-Irish pioneers found their way into the for biddeu territory, and, being outside tha immediate jurisdiction of any properly constituted tribunal, th-.-y chose three of their number to settls disputes, anil called them fair-play men. The decision of this tribunal, especially as to boundaries, were en forced by the whole community, and came in time to be respect .-d even by the courts. When a chief justice of Pennsylvania asked one of tiie tir&t pioneers what were the features of the fair-play code, the pioneer is re ported to have answered that since his honor's court had found it-, way into the region fair play had lied and law had taken its place. An Arch of .oM Coliit A novelty in the way of triumphal arches was see n when the governor general of India visited Rangoon not long back. One structure, very hand somely decorated to begin with, was still further enriched by being covered with gold moliurs and real sovereigns valuable coins in India worth over 50,000, each mohur being equal Ui fifteen rupees. The coins were stuck to the red cloth with a glue that had been specially f prepared for the pur pose, and was no doubt sufficiently strong to keep the gold pieces quite safe from any attempt to steal theta.

Wichita, Sept 7. For thirteen long years tuo bones anj duit of .Mike Mea gher have laia in Maple Grove ceme tery while the murderer has been at large prowling over the country. Yes terday the uews camo that this same murderer ia in custody in California and will be brought back t j Sumner county for trial. This news will interest many people in Wichit-i as well a3 all over the southwest where .Mike Meagher was known, lie waa one of the early uiitrshald of the city when it took a man with a he irt of iron to defend the peace and execute the laws. About fifteen years ago ha went to Caldwell where he died with his boots on in one cf the most rnemorablo border lights on record. A man named Talburt and a gang of cowboys came into Caldwell and tried to run the town. This Meagher proposed to prevent. Sixty-live citizens came to his aid and for two hours a running light was kept up. The outlaws' ammunition ran out, and they lit for the Indian ter ritory. Meagher had been shot in the battle. Talburt, shortly after the fight, went to California where he wan arrested recent ly for murder. lie was convicted but got a new trial and while awaiting the new trial it was ascertained that he was wanted in Kansa-i tor the murder of Mike Meagher. Fearing that he will be acquitted in a njw trial the Californians ure willing to give him up to the Kansas ofiicers knowing that his conviction here would almost La certain. Ilia photo graphs were sent to the eherilf of Sum ner county and that olKcar sent them up here so th.it the criminal might be iden tified by Captain L,ee of tha Salvation Army, who knew the gang very well.

Kleven injunctions have been served on a-i many saloon men and on the b aiidings they occupy, and half a dozen more weru sworn to last evening and will be serve 1 today. "IIere:ofore when County Attorney Boone has made a move to enjoin the liquor dealers he has bj.;n summoned to Topeka and that has been the end of the matter," said a l'opuli.-t. "But things have now reached such a pass both here and in other largo cities ol the state that it has become impossible to longer ignore the demand for an overhauling. "The truth seems to be that the police have become so inextricably tangled up with the corruption associated with the joiuts and gambling houses that they dare not enforce tha law," continued he. "The police have been collecting thou sands of dollars ostensibly for the city, but where has it gone." The injunction proceedings have thus far had no effect except to cause hasty transfers of property to other uamas, and the enjoined saloons ara running wide open. A. FAMILY- DESIITITE. Tliey Walk to Leavenworth From Okla homa, and Set-It liel'iire in a Shanty. Leavenworth, Sept. 7. A family consisting of a man, his wife and three children and a sister and her child are iu dire distrejs and destitution in this city. They are housed in a small shanty iu which they sought refuge daring the terrible rain storm of last Sunday night. The wanderers walked to Leavenworth from the drouth stricken district in Okla homa and when they arrived were well nigh famished. They are miserably clad and pinched aud gaunt from hunger. Neighbors have given tLein a bed, bed clothing and a few email pieces of furni ture arid are helping them in other ways as much as they can. K. V. FOOTBALL TEA Jt IX TRAINING. Forty Candidates Present Themselves for Ilac-ef on the Eleven. Lawrence, Sept. 7. About forty can didates for piaces on this year's Kansas university footbail team met on McCook lield yesterday afternoon for the first practice of the season. There was some splendid material on hand and there is every indication that there will be plenty of men from which to ciioose the strong est eleven the university has ever had. Manager Moody, Physical Director Cowan aud Capt. William-ion were oil the ground, with a number of others inter ested in the selection of a winning team. II. U- Kelly's House Enterud. Lawuesck, Sept. 7. Yesterday about 3 o'clock Mrs. IL 13. Kelly was awakeued by a noise in her room. She remained quiet a moment and then hear ing more uoise sturted to get up. As she d.d so a man crouched at the foot of her bed made a dash for the door and es caped through a window on the north side of the house which he had opened to enter. Mrs. Kelly was alone down stairs, tut at once aroued other mem bers of the family in sleeping rooms above. It was too late, however, to catch the would-be thief. Mayor Ewirig Temporary Receiver. Wichita, Sjpt. 7. To facilitate col lections .Mayor W. X. Ewing, bank ex aminer, for the state of Kansas, has been appointed temporary receiver of the Wichita National laai, by lion. James II. Eckels, comptroller of currency. This is an unusual proceeding and only one other case, that of Spi iagiield, Mo., is on record.

Tlie Sioux Citv Offer for a Fisrht Between Him and C'orbett Fustian. Chicago. Sept. 7. "I shall pay no at tention to the Sioux City offer for a fight between Corbett and myself," Peter Jackson said last night. "There aee.ns to be no tangible front to the delegation reputed t be at the head of the syndi cate, if, indeed, there is a syndicate. 'I have about given up hope of get ting a match with Corbett," Jackson con tinued. "I journeyed across the conti nent at great inconvenience and expense, and my efforts went for naught. I was inclined at first to catch at the Sioux City offer, iu 6omething of the spirit that faint hope catches at any straw, but I know that Corbett has theatrical engage ments far ahead and tiierefore will not make a match with me. Of course he will keep talking fight, because that serves to advertise his theat rical venture. If the Sioux City delega tion which is said to have left the place for the purpose of arranging for a tight arrived in Chicago it seems strange they could not be found. That they may have gone through to see Corbettt first and have passed me by does not satisfactorily explain the matter to my mind. It rather convinces me, if anything, that there is nothing to the whole thing but fustian. "I have done all I can to bring about a meeting with Corbett, and that indi vidual stands in the light at present of a champion who will not defend his claim to his title." PAKKHUllST HOME AGAIN. He Has Something- More Startling Than Has Been Brought Out Before. New York, Sept. 7. 13dfore Dr. Park hurst debarked from the steamer Ger manic today he talked freely to an Asso ciated Press reporter concerning the re sults of the police trials in this city. The dismissal of four captains and a greater number of sergeants aud ward men, Dr. Parkhurst said, waa in the interest of re form. "But," he continued, "I do not think that they were the most guilty cues iu til's department. '1 he police commission ers are the arch criminals. Of course, I do not refer to the commissioners who have recently been appointed. I speak directly, though, of Martin, Sheehan aud McClave. These men must have known of the corrupt practices of the cauiains they have disciplined before I did. If they did not, they were negligent in the performance of their duty." "Are you ready to present more evi dence w hen the Lexow committee meets again?" the reporter asked. "Yes, indeed," he replied. "The na ture of it I am not prepared to disclose, but you may say that I think it will be more startling than anything heretofore brought out." The blame for existing conditions in the police department Parkhurst laid at the door of Tammany, which has caused the general revolt of citizens, irrespec tive of party, against domination by it. TO DOWN TAMMANY. Clubs Hundred Thousand Strong; Will Vnite Against It. New York, Sept. 7. A meeting of citizens in opposition to Tammany hall was held last night in the .Madison Square garden concert hall. It was call ed by Gustave II. Schwab, W. Bayard Custing, Charles S.

A motion was made to adopt the address as the platform of th meeting. Robert B. Roosevelt objected to having "a cut and dried resolution forced dowu our throat3." Ho wanted organization first Alfred R. Conkling said they were al ready organized. "The good movement clubs, the German-American Reform union and the Republicans, who are 100,'JOO strong, will join an mdepandent movement to down Tammany hall." On the motion of James P. Archibald, the following resolution was adopted: Resolved, That a committee of one hundred be appointed by the chair, with full power toco-operate with oiher anti Tammany organizations to further the objects of this meeting, as set forth by the call therefor, and the address just adopted.

Committee on Resolutions is too Slow for the Irrig-ationists. Denver, Sept 7. The attendance at the irrigation congress was smaller than heretofore, some delegates having al ready left for home. Joel Shoemaker of Utah, moved that the committee on reso lutions be requested to report at once. The chairman announced that the com mittee would not be ready to report un til 2 o'clock. This announcement raised a storm of protests and Mr. Shoemaker's motion w,as put and carried, a committee being appointed to wait on the committee on resolutions and demand its report. While waiting for the report, Thomas Ii. Cut ler, of Utah, read a paper on beet sugar culture, after which Senor Yberola, of Mexico, spoke on the necessity of having an international water commission to settle disputes between Mexico and the United States regarding water privi leges. David Boyd of Greeley, Col., read a paper on "Tho Nature and Behavior of the Platte River." Judge Emery of Kansas, national lec turer of the congress, spoke on "Tho True Significance of the Irrigation Movement in Regard to the Arid Lands." The arid section of the United States, he said was over half the possessions of the government, not including Alaska. "This section," he continued, "has not over 5,000,000 population. The greater portion of this tract can bo irrigated and if reclaimed will provide homes for over 75,000,000 people." He denied the letter of Secretary Mor ton to this congress iu which he said: "These meetings have nothing to do with practical irrigation," as absolutely un true. Judge Emery advocated small farms and storage reservoirs, and an irrigation survey for the purpose of discovering and distributing the water of tho coun try for irrigation purposes. The congress took a recess until 2 o'clock. Tnere will be two reports from the committee on resolutions, which is engaged in a bitter light over proposition to put the arid lands ceded to the states under government control.

All heads of families will bo sent down as soon as possible and will be furnished with timber for temporary homes, their families iu the meantime being provided for here or wherever they arc. In order to ascertain what this and the providiug necessaries during the winter will cost, a thorough census will at once be made. The single men will be aided in getting work elsewhere, aud it is hoped to have most of the orphans adopted by worthy families. The commissioners left for the scene of the lire today. The relief head quarters register shows 1,234 sufferers to be here, i)l of which left here today. YETERANS IN. The G. A. It. Blue Everywhere to Be Seen in Fittsburg. Pittsburg, Sept. 7.

Forecast till 8 Y- m. Saturday Fur Kansia Generai'y fair; probably cooler Saturday afternoon; winds becoming nurthwestnrly. What does the Omaha platform Bay about Populist officials accepting passes? The people don't want smart men In congress so much, as the; want honest raea. iLHE new salary grab: making every Btate employs fork over to the campaign fund. Omlt a few faint wkimpsrs are heard in defense of judges taking railroad passes. If Senator Djq Cameron goes over to the Populists, will he be "Old Crank Cameron?" Nobody seems to have had his arm or his neck broken by au attendant at the Insane asylum today. "Alcohol in the Ana," is a headline we see in a St. Louis paper, lias the "General" got to that? Mrs. Leise has gone to Missouri to deliver a speech, lira. Lease is a physi cal wreck only in K.tusa. The "Call," the colored paper, speaks of Broncho's ghost. This must be some relatiou to the nightmare. Thk speil is broeu; rain has begun to fall, and the weather "observers" may come back to tue.r he.tdq jarters. Mary E. Lease ignores everything connected with her position on the state board of charities except the salary. Does Judgo .ticKay.the Populist judge in the souihweat have a railroad pass? it eems unnecessary to ask anybody else. There are a lot of uioe people who want to "reform" politico, but folis like Fred Close and Gov. Leweiling have "cared them off. "When the epi aph is written on the Populist tombstone iu Kais-s, it will be: "Killed by tho Blunder of Its Utterly Stupid Leader." Dr. McCaset ought to be glal that the Journal prints only ha.f of what it hears about his management. lie is kindly spared the other h lf. "Why isu"t -John Willita making speeches for the Populists? The party doesn't seem to want auybody that dates any further t thau IS. i The tide of "tlopa" lo the Populist party in Kansas Bisms to have been stemmed. They may like the principles, but they can't stand thair alvocatea. The Prison Trusty, tho Populist state organ, is "exposing" 21 a j jr Morrill's e li ver record. The "Thieves' Own" and ether penitentiary publications haveu't yet spoken. "When a reporter goes to interview Cy Leland, Cy says nothing, but hands him a cigar. Chairman Leiaud ought to read that verse in the Bible about the bread and the stone. Let ui whisper in Jot.n Breidenthal's ear that, perhaps, if Lowelling hadn't been renominated, he mi jtt have added roa ly thousand votes to his poll of the itate this year. Madame dk Sta ill said that revolution was a h.rse that either ran away with its riders or fell floundering in the mire of reaction. This revolution in Kansas didn't run away with its riders. Jim Leqace was seen peering around la Republican headquarters a day or two ago. Secretary Brlstow roads haste to chase him away befor Le had time to Injure the reputation of the place. It is a grave quetija which is the most good-natured pol.tician in town: Billy Sterna or John W. Breidenthal. John wears the mjst corrugations of worry on his brow just now, however. The ether evening It J. Eloat told wty the people of Tope ta ought to elect him to ofilce. Tonight Col. Veale will give reasons why he s'louli be pre ferred. The peaple wt oweat to hear Eloat shouldn't fail to he it the colonel. Every time Gov. Lewelling makes a speech be loses friends. The poor man don't know how talk. lie emphasizes the wrong words. For instance, he ws talking the other day about how rail roads now spanned the earth; going cn in a low monotone, he gudiaaly saoutel out "HAND3 OF STEEL" in a voice that startled all his hearers. A general titter followed. There was no particular rea son for yelling "bands of steel;" the words and the eenteucs were unimpor tant. But the governor thought he must snout somewhere, so he shouted there. This ridiculous incapacity for reaching a climax pervade ull the governor's ora tory. It is paiuf jl to listen to him. Lawrence Gazette: 'The Uninter rupted Roar of the Fiery Trumpet of hs God of War," is the name of a Chiaeie paper started in New York. The Chi nese translation of tiiia is "Ot Ta Wa Jur llr. and Mrs. Stocking have just moved into Salina from Ottawa county. The English Lutherans have broken ground for a new church in Leaven worth.

Graad Master MatUInUt O'Conncll Says that to tlie Laborer. James O'Conuall, grand master ma chinist of the International Association of Machinists, spoke to an audience of the local machinists at D. of 1L hall, 420 Kansas avenue. Mr. O't onneii's headquarters are at Richmond, Va., but he has been spending the last six iteeks iu the west visiting the various lodges. liis meeting last night was behind closed doors, and thr were about fifty iu the audience. lie spoke in a general way of the present deplorable labor sit uation, and pointed out the necessity for organization, education and political ac tion. "I do not believe in strikes,"' siid Mr. O'Coanell this morning. "Arbitration is the best thinir. It has been necessary to declare strikes in the association eome times, and we have been very successful in them. I recaived a telegram this morning saying that a strike iu the by-i-vcie works at Detroit had baen declared .11. and we won. "Our organization was born in Atlanta, ill, six year ago last April.

Some Statements In a ltecent "Journal" Article Said to Be Mistakes. To the Editor of the Statu Journal: In your papor of September 1 ap peared an article headed, "May Cause Trouble." Now, Mr. Editor, there U not t he least danger of a strike or any other kind of trouble by the Brotherhood of R. B. B. M. on the eastern division of the Santa Fe, or anywhere else ou the Sauta Fe for that matter, for there is hardly such an organization as the It. B. 6a B. M. in existeuco. Your article says that tho brotherhood has a membership of 4,000. Now, that is a mistake, for taere have never been over SJO accord ing to tho grand organizer's statement. Capital lodge No. 10 does not now rep resent the bridge men of the eastern di vision. From a former membership of fifty it has dwindled down to about seven, and all the rest of the lodges on the Sau ta Fe are in much the same fix. The one A. R. U. uaau who cannot aet back to work again, was discharged by his fore man for laziness, and the rest of the fore men refuse to take him on that account. Mr. P. W. Sayre or any other olBcer, had nothing to do with the matter. Your article further says that James II. Clark was going as a delegate to Lit tle RoCiC, Ark. That ia a mistake also, that three delegates were elected by the lodge to represent them, but they never asked for parses and quietly withdrew from the lodge. Neither does the Rdlroad Register represent the Brotherhood; as that paper has been turned into a Populist paper, and its editor feeds at the public trough. Hoping that you will allow us space for the above in your valuable pauer, we are truly yours, Jamks II. Clark, Ex-treueral Foreman. id. F. AsDEtiS, Ex- Pay iu:ntor. Es-ofTieers of Capital Lodge N 10. Tae information which the Jod.inal printed was well vouched for, but tna gentleman who gave it to our reporter is now on, of town; when he returns we will mike a further investigatio i of the accuracy of our information. Ed. THEY MARCHED DOWN. The Jury Views the Scene of the Hoc It Island Car Itobberies. Tb-'rteen silent men marched down K nsas avenue this morning past Lee Jones', beyoud the Rjck Island dipot, and along Smoky row to the City park. They wero the jurors of the d. strict court, in charge of Bailiff Joan Coyne. Tuny had beeu trying James lierriugton fur robbing a Rock Island freight car and in order to arrive at a more com plete understanding of the case the jury went to the place where the stolen goods were found in the river aud the alleged thieves were caught. The jury, it is well understood, is not allowed to converse with anyone aud nobody is allowed to talk to them, while on duty. Accord ingly thsy marched down the street like tho incurable class at the asylum out for an airing. Foreman James Burgess and John L. Guy, walked ahead arm In arm Nearly everybody knows them and when an acquaintance yelled "Ilellu Colonel," the councilman from the Fourth ward looked at a small speck up in the atmosphere twenty miles away, and reflected on the incongruity of the hence. At the City park "Cap." Wintroda,who was walking along the bank, got up to his ankle in mud before he could withdraw his rheumatic foot, A farmer from Ross viile stumbled over a log that was hid by the tall grass, and coutrary to instruc tions, said something. The jury then returned to the court house and weut into executive session. It has been in that stale ever since. In the meantime Charlie Anderson, charged with being an occomplice in the same offense, is being tried. When they get through with him the case of Sam Levy, another accomplice, is to be beard. Read the "Wants." Many of them are as interesting aj uaws items. Sea if it is not so. YOU TO BUY AND HERE IS THE Unlaundried Shirts, full "A beauty;" worth 75c TOO GitASPINO. The Patent Leather Shoe, and tho VI nit Shirt (rtvo Him Away. A yonncr man who said he was n rni sionary tbcut to start for thut part ot Africa where Mtesa of happy memory reigned went Into a Brooklyn clothing store last week and presented a letter from tho secretary of the Y. M. C. A. ri'ho let ter Introduced the missionary, asked the clothiers to lee hlru pick out a full ward robe and to send the bill to the Y. M. C. A. This w as sll very satisfactory, and the missionary w&s given tho run of tho shop. Among the things which ho selected were one swallowtail coat, three ehirts -with rose pink bosoms, one pair of button pat ent leathers, one pair of patent leathez pumps, one pair of lilao glovea, two pair of tan gl ove, one silk umbrella, one sweet briar walking stick and one silk hat. "Won't you have some silk suspenders?" asked tho clerk. Yes, I wlli," said the missionary. When the purchases were made, th clerk, who is r.n old fashioned Presbyterian and knows something of missions, said, "Did I understand, sir, that you were go ing out to Uganda?" "Yes, UriuhIii, yes." "And may I asli what church sendk you?" Oh, the Presbyterian church tht board of foreign missions." The dark felt a great heat crawling into his head as he thought: "And have I been such a chump as to give my hard earned tithes for patent leathers and lilac kkia and that sort ef thing when I thought I was assisting in the conversion of the heathen? By jinks, it's strange. When the voting missioiiary bnd rrone, the clerk lu d an interview with bis c f. lever. Wha:!" cried the clothier. '"Swallow tail coats and pink ghirts in i cjuatuiil Africa!

The Sewer Case Ought to be Settled, BUT THE COUNCIL EA.GS FIRL It Slay be Penaiael Into Uolns on Withtlie Cae and Thui Incorrine Thonand 31 ore of Expente. At the next meeting of the city coun cil next Jlonday evening, formal action will be taken on tL question of tliB ap peal of the Decker, llullica Berry ewer case. Nearly every taxpayer in Topeka would feel relieved if the matter could be settled and the judgment satisfied. Even City Attorney Tillot.oa concedes the fact that a judgment axahist the city will finally be secured, and he only hopes to be able to reduce the amount of the judgment if another trial is had. An appeal to the supreme court will be a costly experiment tor the city if the verdict of the district court of Douglas county is not reversed. The verdict was for $73,513.91. This sum bear the legal rate ol interest, 6 per cent from the date it was given. The supreme court is nearly four years behind in its work, and if the case is not advanced, it wouid be at least four years until it is reached. The interest on the judgment would then amount to 17.643.34, which is a sum which should interest those who pay the expenses of the city's law tuits. Then there is another item worth cod- idering, the cost of appealing the case. City Attorney Tillutson thinks the cost of preparing the case made will not ex ceed fcSOU, but other lawyo.i who know something of the evidence say that it will cost four times that num. This does not include the other fees incident to a hearing of tho case in the supreme court. If the case is reversed end sent back for trial there will be another expensive trial in the district court, which will briny the costs up to nearly or more than $lu,u00. The costs were assessed against the city at the last trial and if judgment is taken against the city thti costs wiil probably be charged to the ci y. So it seems that even if the city se cured a new trial and amite-rial reduc tion in the verdict, the other expenses would nearly if not entirely bring the amount beyond the present judgment. Dj the taxpayers want any more legal quibbling at their expense? In 1S37 the contract for building th gewera in districts 11 and 12 were awarded to Deckir, MuIIins Berry. The sewers were completed in tbout two years and a controversy arose abie.it the balance due the company. The con tractor claimed pay for extra work w hich was not included iu tho contract, but which was oriered by the city engineer, and the council refused to allow the claim. The plaintifTs claim tint the contract required an average depth ol seventeen feet, while they were required by the city engineer, George F. JSeilly, to put it down tweuty-one feet It is claimed that the council refused to take aotion on the matter aud thus ratified the order of the city engineer. Then to make the matter more confuting, all th- records of the council for the time have mysterious ly disappeared. The suit was brought in January, 1S93, in the Shawnee county district court, but was not reached until Judge Hazen came oa the bench, but he refused to try it because his partner, S. 13. Iseuhart, had been city attorney. It was then taken to the district court of Douglass county and was tried before Judge Ben son at Lawrence, in lS'd3k The jury had no general verdict sub mitted, but was required to answer sev eral special questions of fact upon which the court would have rendered a judg ment. The jury reported that they were unable to agree upon answers to all the questions. It was agreed, how ever, that the city was liable for $30,01)0, besides interest, which wouid make the total amount over $10 ,0uu0. A they failed to agree upou answers to all the questions a new trial was ordered. The next trial took place in February and M arch of this year. This time the ju y agreed upon a verdict of o,000 atjainst the city, but again special ques tions of fact were left unanswered. Ac cording to ex-Mayor Theodore Poetiler, who was on the jury, eight members were in favor of a verdict of from $0 ,UU0 to $100,000. But three members of the jury were in favor of a smml verdict The la?t trial was had in June and July reached and a verdict against the city of last and for the first time an agreement was $73,513.91, which includes interest, was given. Only $4,7S7.G1 of this amount was fouud iu favor of the contractors. The court held that the claims of the material men amounting to $1,542.07 mnst be first paid from the judgment. This was to be taken from the amount awarded the contractors as far as the sum awarded them would go, and the bal ance from the amount awarded the bank which furnished the contractors the money to cwrry on the work. It is evident that the citv received the benefit of the work and that the only question is a technical one as to whether the contracts authorized the extra work. The city can not hope to be released entirely, and every day adds to the enor mous expanse already incurred. THE CRIMINAL DOCKET. Judge Ilazen Maltes the Cri rn inal Assig-n-ments for Next M eek.

HE LETS THEii UU2v Dr. McCasey Saves Money By Not Pursuing Pationt3 WHEN THEY MAKE THEIR ESCAPE. I'onr f T h f m Xow at I.ur and Home of Them Danerm-Criminal Care lrMneii Jtesponsible for Two Sul cids. Superintendent J. II, McCasey of the Topeka insane asylum, in trying to ex plain his bad record says during the first six mouths of his management of tho asylum, he only spent $7.50 of the state's money iu trying to capture escaped patients, but he neglects to tay that four insane patients who escaped during the last few months, are still at large. Dr. McCasey attempts to show that he has been saving the state's money, while under Dr. Eastman's administration about $5U0 was expended during the precediug six months in capturing es caped patients. Dr. ilcCa3ey has not used the money the etate allows him for the capture of escaped insane, but Patients Maxwell, Kader, Ackerman and Bloomer have all escaped and are still at large, and Dr. McCasey is making no effort to capture them. Of course it is easy to save money where his patients are allowed to escape and overrun the state. One of these escaped patients, Acker man, is a penitentiary convict who was brought from the state penitentiary at Leavenworth for treatment Ackerman escaped in June, but Dr. McCasey has made no e2ort to have him brought back, if any of these escaped patients should commit any outrages, such as destroying either life or property, the state will be held responsible. It would be more to Dr. McCaaey's credit if he should spend some of the Btates's money in capturing these crazy people and put them back in his institution where they belong. Dr. ilcCasey has only spent $7.50 of the state's money in trying to capture escaped patients, but he compelled Attendant Dolan a few weeks ago to pay $50 out of his meager salary, the ex pense incurred in trying to locate aud capture one of the escaped patients, a man by the name of Bloomer. The mismanagement of the asylum under Dr. McCasey Is serious business, and people who have friends iu the in stitution should understand how thor oughly uu3t McCasey is for the position he holds. The facts have just come out in regard to the suicide of the two patients last spring. Dr. McCasey in his work of reform after he took charge of the asyium had a visiting ward, changed into a hospital ward. In this improvised hospital ward he placed Mrs. Swansou an insane woman from McPherson county, who was only in the ward a few days until she was found hanging one morning suspended front the ceiling When the ward was fixed up for hospi tal purposes Dr. McCasey neglected to have a row of strong curtain hooks re moved from the ceiling, and it was from one of these hooks 2-l:b. trwanson was found hauging. Had there not beeu euch a cleau sweep of experienced at tendants the more experienced ones would have taken note of these hooka and they would have been removed. Old hands at an insane asylum have their wits sharpened by dealing with the in sane. Therefore the making of sudden changes is so much more to be censured. When Banker J. Flora of Linn county suicided at the asylum last spring there was great indignation expressed among the friends of Mr. Flora that he should be allowed to commit suicide when Mrs. Flora was paying for a private attendant to care for her husband. When Banker Flora was tak en to the asylum, Mrs. Flora made -arrangements to pay all the expense of his care, and he was placed in a double room with a private attendant who was to Le with him constantly. Dr. McCasey kept Mr. Flora in the double room awhile, but afterwards trans ferred him across the hall to a small sin gle room where he had to be alone at niht and where he killed himself. People who have friends in the insti tution have no guarantey that they are being properly cared for. Governor Leweiling and the state board of charities owe it to the people of the state to get IlcCasey out of that in stitution at once. It is too bi for a man of h.ia c&Ilhef. f AND CHILDREN'S GL0TM1NG ft!

A. i'ariuer Loses $14 at the II a ml of a J.ad .Man. An old farmer living three miles south west of Topeka, was buncoed last even ing by a smooth stranger w ith a long blacn mustache, whom he got acquainted with on a Santa Fe train. After they ar rived in Topeka the two "friends" walked about the city for a time and finally stopped at the Veale block on Qutncy street. The bunco-steerer said he wanted to see a man up stairs, to pay a bill, and asked the farmer to wait for him on tho sidewalk, lie was not gone long, and dime back to see if his friend had change for a twenty dollar biii. He didn't He took out his old puise which had a string wound around it and revealed two five dollar lulls, three ones aud two half dol lars. The stranger said, "Let me have that till I get my bill changed. I'll be down in a minute." But h-3 didn't come. The farmer waited until his feet felt like hams, and then went up stairs and searched for his friend. He finally found a man who had seen him of the bick mustache go down tho rear steps and up the alley. The farmer, who re fused to tell his name, because he "was old enough to know better," reported the case to the police with the usual result THE V. W. WEBB CASE. Sig-ns That It AYill Sever Come to Trial as Everybody Expected. The general supposition that W. W. Webb, the young ticket broker charged with forgery would never come to trial, seems likely to be realized. The case was set for trial today in the district court but County Attorney Safford ex plained to Judge Ilazen that the case would have to be continued indefinitely because C. C. Colt the prosecuting wit ness in the case had failed to show up. An attachment was accordingly issued to bring Colt into court, but it is doubt ful when this can be served, as Colt is 8t present a non-resident of the state and the attachment is worthless outside of Kansas. Accordingly, the officers must wait until they can catch Colt in Kansas, which may occur in this generation and maybe not In the meantime Mr. Webb will not lose any sleep by reason of this possibility. A large part of the Webb case lies be low the surface. As tho result of the case being brought, Webb has been driven out of the ticket business, which was an end greatly desired by the Sauta Fe passen ger department. It is stated, however, that Mr. Nicholson and W. J. Black are willing aud anxious that the prosecution should be carried on, but other Santa Fe oOciala, whose wishes in the case have fully as much weignt, are opposed to the prosecution, It seems pretty certain, too, that Mr. Colt is not staying out of the state with out some inducement The fact that he refuses to appear against Webb is in itself enough to arouse a suspicion to this effect At the time the case was brought Celt was a member of the Santa Fe's de tective service. It was he who bought the ticket of Webb, paid for it, and saw the alleged change in the ticket which, by means of an extension stamp bearing George T. Nicholson's signature, transformed it from a worth less ticket to a valuable one. Since then, however, he has quit the Sauta Fe and is now a deputy United btates marshall iu the district of Missou ri. He has considerable business in Leavenworth, Atchison and other river town and it is here the officers have their only show of serving the attachment It is a question whether Webb could be found guilty without Colt's testimony if at all. County Attorney Safford says the Btate's case would 'fall flat without Colt. Mrs. Ptt Campaicnias. Mrs. Gracia Potts and Mrs. Willard Struble of Topeka are assisting S. M.

And yet, if a woman ever loved a man she loved him; and as I sat and studied these two wretch ed mortals he dying- of poison ad ministered by his own hand in a moment of rash desperation because she had refused to marry h rn, and she tortured by an inconceivable ag-ony of consciousness that she was the cause of the trag-edy and that in a sense his blood was upon ber head, and that in his death the was losing all that life held precious for her, as I studied the btrangre and tragic incongruities that ming-led with the other world shadows whicb flitted about the room, I wondered, hardened physician thoug-h I was, at the variety of human perversityand the sufferinir that issues from it. ITere, I reflected, was a fprl, Dot a child, blessed with an uncom mon array of gfifts a soul as whole some and pure as the odor of roses, a mind both broad and strong', both, wise and intelligent, a heart filled with all the tender charms which make their possessor a benefaction to the race, and a person winsome and beautiful; j'et throug-h onu of these unaccountable wnims which mark the best of her sex as the easiest victims of fanaticism, she had placed in her heaven a guiding- star that g-lovved dull with an uly crimson that nig-ht. I had exhausted the resources of my skill to save my friend's life, for I loved the brave, petulant, kindly-lad; and when I realized that all was in vain and heard his confession, I had summoned her in order that she mig-ht suffer, in seeing- him die, all the cruelest tortures that life could hold for one so sensitive as she. So there she sat in the dim light, holding- his hand and looking steadily, unwaver ingly into his pain-drawn face and staring eyes, her own face blanched, her own eyes expressing the agony which I was joyed to see. No words passed between them. At last he shivered, closed his eyes and sighed wearily and then all was over. I laid down the limp hand, passed around the bed to the side at which, Norma sat, and touched her arm. LTer head had sunk upon the bed, but her hand still held her dead lover's tightly. Seeing her thus so crushed and hopeless, the mean revenge which I had gratified yielded to pity. I unclasped her rigid fingers, gently raised her to her feet, and led her, weak and staggering, to a lounge, where she sat with her head bowed and he? hands clasped between her knees. Then I placed a screen to shield my dead friend from her view, seated myself beside her, took her hands in mine and said: 'Heaven has been kind in assuming the task of administering to you a punishment for which human hands would have been inadequate. Tho gallows cannot reach you, but God Las condemned you to live." This roused her. She turned upon rue her great brown eyes, dry, hard, and unrepenting, and calmly an swered: "Then, if God has punished me, by what right do you assume to be Ilia executioner? I want none of your preaching. I suffer, but my con science is clear." This amazing speech confounded me, but not so much as did her fol lowing words. Rising and standing NORMA HELD OE OF HIS HANTD3. before me in all the radiant glory of perfect womanhood, her hair fallen loose about her shoulders, her figure erect and her manner defiant and wholly self-contained, she said to me: "I love him God knows I love him. lie wanted me to marry him. Had I not already risen on the wings of knowledge to the upper air in which, wisdom and purity dwell, I Bhould have yielded, through ray love, to the grossness with which an all-wise maker has seen fit to manacle the nobler things within us.; I should have been married to him, and we should have bred like iinimals.and lived in sordidness and pain, growing grosser and more sordid every day iu the disgust or weariness which such a companionship must brin,g in time, groveling lower in the dust which God has been pleased to pla ce so thick at our feet, sinking instead of soaring, and finally dying without souls! I loved your friend too well to marry him." She paused, looked, down upon me with a scornful yett pitying glance from burning eyes, and I was speech less. "Yes, I loved him loved him infin ri MT last ?T-Sl friend yhhiC J while V Iff p) N itely better than all else In this world. I loved him too well to de stroy him by becoming his wife. But now I am free to marry him and with God's help I wilL" ho aijroslo out a&(j. Rent a meeii- j-er somewhere in haste, and then re turned to me and again stood before aae, regarding me with those blazing tyes, from which shown a light not of this eartS. "I have sent," said she, "for a priest of my faith, who has power both to tummon the departed and to unite the lead and the living in holy wedlock, i'our friend can be my husband now, his abode somewhere, everywhere, but with God always; my abode here, jntil such pleasant time as God may rid me of the gross flesh and the grosser qualities which bear it 00m pany, and then and then we shall Jwell together forever, my husband md I, in the very presence of God, do ing good upon earth through all eternity, if wo may doing nothing but good, and enjoying an unsullied, undying love for each other such as no mortal could experience. Do you not understand," she cried, clutching my shoulder, "that the hand of God may have been in my refusal and in your friend"a death? Who are you, that, having never seen the light, pre tends to know?" Fearing in my reason that she was mad, but feeling in my heart that I stood within the presence of one of those awful mysteries which Provi dence discloses to the very few only to whom it has been given to under stand them, I made no protest, for my tongue had lost its offices and my purposes were astray. I had known that this strange girl had delved deep into the secrets of the after life and of the unknown conditions which en compass us in the flesh; I had known that she had steadfastly pursued her course in the face of ridicule, when I felt that she ought to have received compassion; and sometimes I had wondered if really there might not be mortals so strangely endowed but at this juncture a grave, gray man en tered the room. I had seen him be fore, and had heard much about him. He was a famous "medium," whom some people feared and others ridi culed. Norma introduced us. "My friend," she said, laying her hand upon his arm, "summon the spirit of my lover, whose body lies there and make us man and wifa." "Sister," replied the grave man, gently, "does he wish to marry you?" "lie did in the flesh, brother. We loved each other. If he does not wish to marry me he will inform you; but I know that now, since his passing to the other life has cleared his vision and made him understand my heart, he loves me infinitely better than be fore, and will gladly marry me. His friend, who sits here, will witness the marriage." Then by rappings and other devices, the medium (so they both believed) brought back the spirit of my friend. Questions were asked and answered, my friend responding through the mediumsbip of the grave, gray man (so he declared), that he loved Norma, and desired more fondly than ever to marry her. It would be tiresome to repeat the words of the marriage ceremony (which was performed), or the tender exchanges of speech between husband and wife which followed the marriage; nor do I deem it good taste to express any opinion on the subject, preferring merely to report what I saw and heard. But I cannot refrain from saying that the look of womanly sweetness and happiness in Norma's face surpassed in simple beauty and purity all that I had ever seen in the faces of brides who had married living men. The light of heaven shone in her glorious brown eyes, and a "peace that passeth understanding" sat like a coronet of pearls Ujjon her brow. After it was all over the grave man placed his hand upon her head: "My sister," said he, "this has all been the work of the Most High. The light in your eyes tells me that hence forth you can communicate with the departed; this will bring you in con stant companionship with your spirit husband; and, aided by the advice which his now superior wisdom will enable him to give you in your work for the good of humanity, you will i become one of ths great and good I women of the world." j Still I will express no opinion, but i how strangely has it all come true! Norma (known by no other name) is to-day one of the most famous and 1 widely loved of the noble women who s have given over their lives to the I benefit of humanity. I saw her last a few j-ears ago, but the strange scene at my dead friend's be.lside was not mentioned. Her brown hair is gray ing now, but there is still in her beau tiful eyes the ineffable light which shone in them that night. Her sweet ness and grace are matchless, and the greatest regret of my life is that I cannot be always near her, to sit hum bly at her feet and hear the words of gentle wisdom and unbounded com passion which fall from her lips. Newspaper Woric in Japan. Editing a newspaper in Japan is evi dently rather a difiicult matter. One native journal recently appeared with a large blank space, for which the ed itor apologized by stating that at the last moment he found that what he had written for that space was en tirely wrong, and must be left out. Accordingly he had no time to obtain matter to fill the vacant columns. Karly Orftag.

The printed programme is not being strictly adhered to on account of the ab sence of so many, aud several of the speeches dated Lr the lirc part will be delayed tili the end gf the programme. Yesterday afternoon there were forty three present. buort speeches were made by Prof. Beil, Mr. tiering, Lois Waisbrooker and "iis. Maybee. A paper that waj to have been read in the morning entitled ''Dangerous Classes," by A. Warrea, of Oklahoma City, was read on muiuii, by the chair man. It was iu substance as fellows: "Two of my neighbors belong to and represent the two dangerous classes that we are told are beginning to infest this country. .Neighbor Smith believes that the insignificant globule on which we live is tiio ceulrai and most importaut body of matter in existence. lie has no idea of the immensity of space. His education has been mainly derived from an ancient book which he insists contains all the information we sinful mortals have any use for. In llus book the eartli and all the heav enly bodies are said to have been brought into existence about six thou sand years ago by a being of intinito power merely for the purpose of maui lestintr his own glorv. ian was also formed out of the du.it of the earth iu the image of this groat being who pre vious to this wondrous work had been roaming about in the darkness fjroouut lesi ages. At lirst this almighty man was delighted with his invention, and made great pels of the little duplicates of himself which he had made, planting a garden for them. One tree, winch by an awkward blunder tie had left grow ing in the center of the garden, he com mauiod them not to eat of. Of course these children, not yet one week old, disobeyed and ate of the fruit. Instead of killing them, as he had threatened to do, ho drove them out of the garden and took the whole matter under advisamant. Later, after due reflection for about four thousand years, during which tiiuo the human family had continued disobedient and disorderly, he concluded to let them kill him and in that way bring (.bout a reconciliation. "This, Smith insists, is genuine history and he aud his gang propose to compel everybody to promulgate it as such at least ono day in the week. This 1 con sider to be dangerous to the liberties of the people. ".Neighbor Jones belongs to a different class. The Jewish myths he discards and claims to be a reasonable man, sci entific and liberal. 'One world at a time' is his motto aud he knows uothmg about auy 'unseen world.' Religion ii to him a superstition. Ho boasts tnat he is a law abiding citizen, without stopping to ques tion the nature of the law or the in fluences that procured their enactment. The revised statutes are his Bible. Property is bis God. The ma;i who would as a matler of principle render an equivale-.it fur wliat ha receives, Jones would consider a lunatic. To get something for nothing is the very fabric of Jones' sjciety, aud society must be protected no matter how many mere individuals die of starvation. "The fact is. our present civilization ii the direct offspring of barbaria n and is baaed on the ame principle: Hoi uery. Hut the worat has not been toil. Lagal tender money and the forcible collection of debts have impoverished more people than all the tricks of trade combined (loud applause from Mr. Lathrop). "There is another barbaric device for squeezing wealth out of the unfortunate. It our despoiled brother couid hud a pdaee in which to hide he could f jrce the earth to yi!J him a living, but the earth itself is the property of a privileged class. "There is another ancient system J oats adopts without reason. It is the) making property of human beings. Jones imag ines that he owns the mother of nis chil dren. He treats her much as he does his other property, except that she is not for sal nor to loan out at interest. Better were it lor her if she could be sold than to be Jones' slave. Life such a it is she has, but liberty and the pursuit of hap piness are to her uo more than myths. ke has alieualed these rights througu the mummery of a magistrate. Joaes does not believe in priests, remember. But in either case he owns the woman. She owns not even the wages she may earn by taking ia wasaiag, una her life is dedicated to the single purpose of gratifying Jones. Strange a it may seem to Jones this meek, submissive le.ng is not happy. She feels that she has iittie compensa tion for her devotion. If he would smile on .her and pet her and sympathize with her she could endure anything. But he does not; aud there is no escape, no re lief, except iu ths grave. She is oound for life. She may nut seek elsewiiare. Her affections belong to her husband alone. And such a friend, such a beauti fnl life must be sacrificed to maintain the diabolical system that has descended to us from a savage ancestry.

What thou will the majority do? The majjrity aro steeped in tnese ancient superstition s. They believe legalized robbery to be right; they believe marriage to be a sacred institution bacause it is the very foundation of our boasted civilization. They will make it a crime to advocate radical change. It will be safe euougn to talk of finauca because that has noth ing to do with actual reform, but whoa it it proposed to abolish tho machinery of injustice, of plunder, of murder aad pros titution upon which our social fabric rests, there will be laws enacted to shut our mouths.

They are just approaching. Tho grand struggle of all the ages is in front of us. Iu the f uture,church and state will unite to crush outsimpla j ustice aud pure love. There is danger to honest men and to suffering women when the Joneses aud the Smiths are found lighting side by side ia the common cause of nefarious gain and brutal auiinai passion." At the close of the letter the chairman made a few remarks, in which he said: 'Pullman, Carnepria, Gould, Vanderbilt, tho bankers of Wall street and their servants iu congress; are they not of the dangerous classes? Aro they any the less murderers because they kill thou sands by slow starvation?" Alleu Holcraft, who was in the au dience, was ill-advised euough to arise at this and declare that ho did not believe anybody was wholly bad. 'T believe the woman should have as many rights ia the mar riage relation as the man. It is for them both, equally." Ljis Waisbrooker didn't think so. She got to her feet and walked tottering ly to the front of the audience. Her brown eyes were flashing tire and her face was white. Her age-brown fingers closed and opened convulsively as she began: "1 he marriage relation under the pres ent conditions is not equally for man and woman. Man is free; woman ia not. You men may think she is, but she is not. Let man and woman change their piaces in the marriage tie, and every man would cry he was a slave. No, all men are not wholly bad. There are tires in every soul, that if you did not smother them with wrong conditions would awaken and outshine ia light and warmth the noonday sun. But we are not living under those conditions. I am now under bond and may yet ba sent lo jail a prisouer for daring to speak what I think about the act that gave you and me our being. The competitive conditions of the present make us de'ils instead of angels. iXo man on earth or spirit else where can govern me arbitrarily." Mr. Holcraft thought thi3 would be a good piaca to modify his statement some iu the eyes of the majority preoent, and he arose to say, "I believe woman is the equal of man. I want her to have the privilege of voting. She could do so much good for herself with it." Mrs. Sempie "What has your vote doner" Mr. Hclcraft "Mighty little." Mrs. Sempie "It has brought us to the verge of a revolution." Mrs. Sempie here moved that the chair appoint a committee to draft some reso lutions of respect for four recently de ceased members of the organization. Gov. Kobinson, Frank W'ma of. Lyndon, W. S.
