Huv .,.V and SjH-erkles Seek to Squeeze Seventy M ill ion of People Who 31 nst Use Surar. New York, Oct 10. The wholesale grocers of Chicag o are the leaders in a wide spread revolt against the sugar trust The Gruonrs' association of that city had boldly tniiouncnJ that hence forth it will sell tugar under its own con ditions. Thus it boldly menaces one of the rao.-t gigantic trade combinations in the world. Heretofore the wholesale grocers of the United States have been the tools of the trust. This revolt at Chicago indi cates that they intend to be so no longer. They were tricked and cajoled, but they gee better now. The movement lias spread so widely that the continued sales tif refined sugar by wholesale dealers all over the country at prices far below the trust schedule hai attracted the attention of Wall street. The dealers were allowed a rebate sim ply on condition of maintaining prices, and it is thought that the cuts in prices will soon result in the disruption of the Wholesalers' association organized in different sections through the efforts of the trust. .Story Tolii l1' the I-'irst Tinte. The Btory of tLeir dealings with the trust is told here for the lirst time, and it forms another interesting chapter in the rise of the pool which controls a staple article of food for 70,000,000 people. Ten years ago the susrar business in this coun try was conducted just like any other legitimate branch ot trade. There were many in it, and there was healthy compe tition, lletiuers and dealers were con servative and weie satisfied with a safe business and moderate profits. Enormous fortunes made in sugar were rare. By and by new methods were adopt ed. Capital wag massed in the sugar business. Transportation was cheapened and the dealers hjgau to wage war with each other, 'llie leading" wholesale gro cers aimed to extend the field of their operations. Each, one tried to excel in cheaply serving the public and compell ing others to d e x The margin of ex pense an 1 profit in the refining and in the distribution of fcugar was les than ever before. But there were cute men in the-sua-ar .business, who saw that such a course as that would u t do. New conditions must be created, and tt ey determined to make them better than they were even in the old days. The Havemeyer Knjjineereil It. Out at this determination arose the union by which, t.a the direct employes of the trust in many cases,' the whole Bale grocers in the" United States have combined with the sugar trust to control the price of sugar, to limit production, to raise prices, douole, treble and quad ruple profits and oycott and drive from business any dealer who dares attempt to serve the public more cheaply. The combination was made possible and finally formed tho sugar trust, the coin Hue of sugar refiners engineered by the llavemeyers. To get U the profits a national asso ciation of wholesale grocers was formed in JNew lork A committee J. Johnson, o! Spurr, of Bostoi; of "New York; IV in June, 1S8S. consisting of YV Richmond; II. y. G. Waldo Smith, W. Inbusch of Mil waukee, and Hkhlird Dymond of Cin cinnati, was appointed to consult, with the sugar refiners which meant the llavemeyers, whj had long before ar ranged to meet the coiumiyea when ap pointed. In the pleasureable. excitement that followed this step the 'rest of the busi ness of the convention was foreotten ex cept that some of the leaders were posi tive in thir statements that there was no idea of forming a grocers' sugar trust, but that the pian M as by association to prevent trade abisea andsecure the sell ing of pure and wholesome goods. How tlie (irot'ei-s W-re Humped. There seemed to be no reason wtm the agreM:i?'i!; which it professed to be in ei.i'a a t, evnrv isLo Inb that lUc g rry to consummate, and which 's lawjer had said was iegal, be entered into at once. Mr. arae to New York ond hinted rocers were now ready to close arrangement. Mr. bearies and Mr. Ilavemeyer, how ever, felt that it would be "well to wait and see what the Philadelphia refiners would do," as they were a very reliable lot, Mr. Inbusch did not under btand this, but had so much fith iu Mr. iiaveneyer that he said ail right, and waited while Mr. Ilave meyer undertook the management of the delicate question uf keeoing the Phila, delphia refiners straight. This he effect ed at last and they were brought into the trust Mr. Inbusch had worked out an "equal ity basis for the sugar business, and, upon Mr. bearlea' assurances, a meeting was held at the iercantiie Exchange. New York. It was most enthusiastic and representative. Mr. Inbusch's plan in volving at least a one-quarter cent rebate to the wholesale grocer, was adopted by the overwhelming vote of 159 to 1, and a committee appo.nted to call upt n the heads of the su jar trust and close mat ters. They were jaoit cordially received, but were to.d that the trust could not make the agreement unless thev made the vote unanimous. It was charged that Graham btuart, of Chicago, the disseutina- mem. lr, had beta induced by Uio trust NIGHT EDITION. TQPEKA, KANSAS, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 15, 1894. to come to New York and vote against anything that was brought up. 31r. Inlui-Ii' Eyes Were Opened. Mr. Inbusch was a sadder and a wiser man when he read in the sugar trust newspaper that the Wholesale Grocers' association of New York and vicinity had been extended to cover New Jersey. Then everybody realized that the Whole sale Grocers' National association was dead and the trust was supreme. Then the trust proceeded to extend its system and power over the entire coun try. In New England the work was al ready far advance L Mr. Lyon took up first the organization of the wholesale grocery trade of New York and vicinity, which largely on Mr. Inbuc!i's p.lan lie soon got into working order. From New Y'ork as a center he has extended his work, taking in local organ izations where they were too strong to be ignored, encouraging tho formation of new ones on the trust's plan in other states, until the whole country is now fairly well covered. Every citizen fehould understand the sugar situation aa it now stands. With Spreckles in control of Hawaii, ani the llavemeyers extending their plantations in Cuba, the trust dictates to every branch of sugar production and distribution in the United States, taking under its wing everyone concerned, except those who consume sugar. Such is the gigantic sugar trust, which has gripped a whole couulry of 70.000,000 people. It is threatened now with a re verse, anil if the w holesale grocers follow the lead of ti;e Chicagoans the power of the trust vvi'l be cripple'd if not, entirely crushed. JEFF DAYIS' 1I031E.

IS HE POISONED? A Sensational Story From Min neapolis About the Czar. Beinu: "Removed" Seientili call3 it Says. HIS DEATH WATCHED. The Kml is Coming Slowly but Surely. Two Bitter Czar Factions as to the "s Successor. Minneapolis, Oct. 15. lias the czar of all Russia been skillfully poisoned and slowly put to death by scientific means in the hands of nihilists'." Dr. George F. V. Schmidt, the German trav eler now iu Minneapolis has just re ceived secret dispatches from St. Peters burg, which throw a strong light on the crisis in European politics caused by the impending death of the czar. These dispatches came written in sympathetic ink on an apparently blank piece of paper. The ap plication of heat brought out some strange stenographic characters which the doctor readily translated. He showed the dispatch to an Associated Press re porter today and remarked that in order to send such things from St. Petersburg, it was necessary to doubly protect them by the use of sympathetic ink and a se cret code. The most sensational matter in the dis patch is the intimation that the czar's ill ness has been caused by other thau natural means. The doctor translated the dispatch for the Associated Press as follows: 'The czar is lying at the point of death. The excitement of the highest circles of Russia is tremendous. It is understood iu a wide circle in Russ;a that the czar's sickness was brought about by scientific means, and that his death will be a nat ural one. It is on account of this that the journals contradict the fact of the czar's sickness. "There is a party that wants to set the czarewitch on the throne. The czarewitch is of a cranky, melancholy nature, in clined to institute the most radical re forms throughout Russia, and has already made plans for such action. He ia much hated by the clergy. "The patriarch of Moscow, who is at the head of the Greek church, has trav eled about with the czar in order to per suade him to put his second son on the throne instead of the czarewitch. The Greek Catholic church of Russia it fever ishly excited. The reichsrath, or coun cil of the empire, is daily holding secret councils. Tho pan-Slavic party is with the church and against the czarewitch, who is a great friend of Germany. "Should the czar decide to place his second son upon the throne, this would be looked upon as a direct insult to Ger many and would be attended with the most serious results. "The second son of the czar is very inimical to the Germans, friendly to the French, dreadfully despotic and iu the highest degree headstrong and a strong autocrat. It is feared on the death bed of the czar, the church influence will succeed in inducing him to call hi3 second son as his successor. His second son is very hot headed, and is sure not to remain long on the throne without becom ing seriously involved in state troubles. "The 88 year-old patriarch of Moscow has had a two hour's conference with the czar at his death bed, but no one knows the purport of this talk. The second son of the czar is opposed to the liberty of the people and is of an envious nature. He is a fine soldier, fond of a fight, a mar tial fellow and very ambitious. He is an enemy of England, of Germany and above all, of America. "He not only intends to increase the size of Asiatic Russia, but also to attempt the tremendous task of bridging the Bearing straits and extending hia empire in the direction of America. This prince is by all odds one of the greatest gener als in Russia, having been with Mourka and Tirnaschieff and having studied with the latter. All of the cabinets of Europe are alarmed. "It is rumored that the entrance of England into the Drelbund that is the triple alliance is about to take place. Already between Russia and France se cret relations have been entered into."

He Answers Qaeations us to tlie Influence of the Catholic Churoli. New Y'ork, Oct 15. At Prohibition park, 8. I., last evening, Dr. McGIynn answered some questions put to him by members of the A. P. A Dr. McGIynn said Charles S. Haskell, of the Prohibition Park Co., had handed him these questions to answer: ls there anything in the constitution of the Catholic church which is a menace to a Republican government':" "Ia it true the vows of Catholics priest hoods interfere with loyal citizenship in a Republican country like our own':'" "Was not the archbishop of New York compelled to interfere with your rights aa a citizen because of your political en thusiasm?" The first question Father McGIynn an swered with an emphatic no. He added: "The Catholic church will not menace this country. So far from the pope try ing to $evtutionize this country, it is the reverse, and in no country does the up holding of the Catholic faith so please him as in America." To the second question Dr. McGIynn replied: "The priests do not take vows. They only roake promises at the time of ordination. Those promises only restrict the priest in his religious observances and to celibacy. "I answer yes to the third question," said the speaker. "But those who con damned me made a mistake. Neither tho Catholic church nor the pope is in fallible. I was ex-communicated, but that wound is all healed, and I bear uo ill will. THE NARROW PATH. The Path Too Narrow for Two of the lirethren. Within the boundaries of the Second ward is a little colored church of the -Methodist persuasion. J. C. C.

Last Thursday evening the church had its regular weekly prayer meeting and llayden Edmonds was there. So was Ed A Roberts and they were both happy travelers in the narrow road way. Ed was a littie ahead of Haydeu, it seems and in his eagerness for advance ment Haydeu tried to crowd past Ed and in so doing stepped on one of Ed's feet wnich already filled the patii. There was trouble immediately and Ed has had Iluyden arrested. The case is up for hearing iu Justice Chesney's court this afternoon. ROBBED OF fel 5,000. The Pacific Express Company at tlie The Ualles, Ore., ItolbeI by Thieves. Tiik Dam.es, Ore., Oct. 15. The Pacfiic Express company's office in this city has been robbed of "$14,000 or 15,000. The money was sent here from Portland and arrived Saturday night. F. N Hill, ex press agent, and two officers took charge of the money as soon as it arrived, taking it to the express office. Details of the robbery are very meagre. It is thought that the robbers came here on the train and knew where the box was consigned, and followed it up after it ar rived. They made easy work of cap turing it. CharlesTibbits, the company's driver, sleeps in the express office, but on the night of the robbery he was at tending a ball, and did not return until 1 o'clock. The robbery was evidently committed between 11:U0 and 12:;J0 Sat urday night while Tibbits was absent BERNE D HER CHI LDRE N. A Woman Takes Her Three Children Into a !5arn anil Nets Fire to It.

Tho husband and father was absent at the time of the calamity. The general belief is that Mrs. Harri gan became suddenly insane and set the house on fire; that then she took her children and went into the barn and set the hay on fire. As the fiames began to close around them, the mother gath ered the children about her and field them until they were overcome.

A Was It a Case or Not of Suicide A COIlONEirS JURY Trying to Decide That Question Today. Adams Subjected to anOperation for Imbecility. Birch Adams, son of J. N. Adams, a tinner formerly of North Topeka, was shot and killed last night about half past o'clock under somewhat mysterious circumstances at the home of his parents at 2021 West street. He probably died by his own hand. The young man was 10 years old and has been in poor health for two yeari Last winter he was arrested for theft aud confined in the county jail. He was there several weeks and suffered from attacks of epilepsy. He was very irrita ble and quarrelsome and frequently hud trouble with the other prisoners. Instead of being tried for the crime which was the theft of a neighbor's chickens, his parents had proceedings to inquire into his sanity instituted iu the probate court. He was given a hearing aud was adjudged insane or imbecile aud was sent to the Topeka Insane asy lum. He was there about four months when Dr. McCasey notified the boy's father that he was practically cured. His father then took him home. He soon manifested symptoms of in sanity again, and his parents decided to have a surgical operation performed, similar to those at W infield Dr. W. C. Brownell was consulted, and he decided that such an operation should be per formed. The young mau was told what his parents had decided should be done, and assented. The operation was per formed four weeks ago, and the patient gave every indication u'. a favorable re covery. Saturday inti-immation of the kidneys set in, and ho suffered great pain. Hot bandages were applied to his back, and he soon became easy. Oa Sunday the pain again became intense, and the doctor was again sent for. The boy became better, but after the doctor had gone he called a neighbor, Mrs. Lord, the well known woman who con ducts religious services iu the county jail, to his bed and said: "They say I am goingto get well, but what is the use. Something tells me I am going to die, and the sooner the better. You will get me a revolver, won't you? There is one in the house and you can get it. I don't believe there is anything wrong in killing myself if I want to." "No, I will not do that," replied Mrs. Lord, "but I will do all 1 can to help you to get well." He continued to beg piteously for a re volver, and told others that he might as well be dead for he would never be him self again. Mrs. Lord told the boy's mother of her son's condition, and told her if there was a revolver in the house to let her take it. Mrs. Adams said there was a revolver in the house, but that it was in the bottom of a trunk in another room and could not be possibly found by Birch. The mysterious part of the story is told by the father, Jamea N. Ad ams, as follows: "In the af ternoon Birch commenced to suffer again and I concluded to go for the doc tor. I was afraid he would get a revol ver, and 1 also thought that perhaps I would need it, so 1 went to the trunk vad took it out and put it in the inside pocket of my coat. When I came back it was after 8 o'clock, and I went over to the bed and leaned over to talk with Birch. I had been with him only a little while when he said to me: 'Go and sit down by the fire, father; I want to La alone.' I went and sat down before the grate, and I had been there only a moment when I was startled by a pistol shot. I went to the bed and Birch was lying with his eyes wide open looking at rae. lie seem ed to smile at me, but when I spoke to him he did not answer, and he never spoke again. He must have taken the revolver from the inside pocket of my coat while I was bending over him, but I knew nothing about it." The bullet entered above and back of the left ear and came out on the opposite side of the head. The young mau lived until after eleven o'clock but he was not conscious at any time after the shot. There were no powder burns on the head which would have been the case if the revolver had been held near the head nor does the pillow show any signs of powder burn. The bullet entered the left side of the head. The father had sent the boy's mother to bed and also sent home the neighbors and a nephew of Mrs. Adams, T. J. Max well, who was there said there was no one in the room except the boy's father when the shooting took place. The first man to arrive was John McCord and Mr. Adams told him the same story that he has since repeated to others The re volver was not in sight, however, and when Mrs. Adams asked him to get it he found it in the bureau drawer. Mrs. William Bishop ami Mrs. Lord were summoned, and were there when the boy died, but at no time did the father lose his composure or tell a differ ent story. The revolver is of the self-acting pat tern, bS-calibro. Two chambers were empty when the weapon was found, but the discharged shell had been taken from one chamber. The coroner was not summoned till this morning and aa inquest is now being held. The family had only been living at the present location a little more than a month. The father is a tinner aud form erly lived in North Topeka and worked at bis trade.

This is the force of education, it is talent. Talent el pressed in nice furniture id always fashionable, impresses you and your eurrounding-s with its individuality, its own stamp of style. It differs from mediocrity in that the work of talent can command its own price. That is the reason we cannot buy nor sell tine fsrniturn for the price, un talonted, only partially educated producers of furniture get, for every day patterns. Sjme people want re fined finely proportioned furniture. They can get it at our store only. Unquestionably U is the moit econo mical to buy. The educated mind quickly grasps this fact. PADOUK.

The Trains Come Together With Terrific Force. New Oeleaxs, La., Oot. 15. En gineer Simpson of the East Louisiana road is responsible for a frightful ac cident that occurred yesterday morning- at the crossing- of the Louisville and Nashville and the Northeastern road, about two miles from where the Louisville and Nashville road leaves Elysian Fields street an accident that will in all probability result iu at least one fatality, while a score of passeng-ers on the Louisville and Nashville received severe injuries. The Louisville and Nash ville "across the lake" excursion train, consisting of eig-ht coaches, well loaded with pleasure seekers, a large proportion of them being- women and children, pulled out on time. As the train ap proached the crossing of the North eastern tracks, Engineer lianley broug-ht his train to a stop and whis tled, as the law requires. lie then gave the signal to g-o ahead and pro ceeded across the tracks of the Northeastern, 2JUftt as t'19 East Louisiana train, carrying excursion ists to points in South Tammany parish, was booming along its tracks and with a shrill shriek from its whistle for "down brakes," crashed into the sixth coach of the Louisville and Nashville train. The collision threw a crowded coach eompletely into the ditch while the attacking engine was derailed and buried its nose several feet in the mud. Passengers on the East Louisiana train were uninjured, except for the shock of the collision. Not so with the coast excursion, however. Just before the iron monster struck the coach several of the passeng-ers saw it coming- and a panic ensued. There was a wild rush to escape from the coach, but before one of the rassen-g-ers could reach either platform the approaching- engine had struck, and the coach with its living freight was hurled from the track into the ditch. W omen and children shrieked in their terror, while men fought their way blindly for some escape from the coach. Seats were torn up and hurled in every direc tion by the force of the collision and after the first wild panic had sub sided there was heard piteous moans from different quarters of the wreck telling of painful injuries. Willing hands went to work and within a short time the wounded had been taken from the coach and made as comfortable as circumstances would p rrait. The greatest indignation and anger prevailed among the witnesses of the collision against Engineer Simpson, who had ruthlessly disregarded the law requiring him to stop, ani had caused the frightful accident. In quiry developed the fact that Simpson had escaped to the swamp. NO SHADOW OF A CLUE. Deteottves on tha Qnantico Train Rob bery Hare Not Even Found a. Trace. Washington', Oct. 15. Not a shadow of a tangible clue to the identity of the men who accomplished the re markable feat of train brigandage in Virginia Friday night has yet come to light. The little town of Qnantico, which consists of half a dozen houses, almost isolated from civilization, is overrun with detectives to-day; officers from New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington. There are almost as many theories afloat as there are detectives. Hut the only points on which the theories are practically harmonious are that the robbery was a carefully planned work, executed by experienced pro fessionals and that the meu are prob ably far distant from their field of operations before this time. Most parties agree that a boat plaved a part in the escape, but no strange crafts were seen on the Potomac that night so far as can be learned. Free-for-All Fight at a Dane. Old Mo.veoe, Vo., Oot. 15. Old Monroe was the scene of a free-for-all fight Saturday night in which knives were used and several heads broken. The affair -originated at a dance given to raffle off a horse. Four Rog ers brothers from Cap-au-Gris were against the home talent. No less than ten or fifteen men were involved. When the noise of the battle ceased the doors and windows an 1 f urnit'ir.; of the saloon where the fight occurred were pretty well demolished a. id Jack Besselman, Lea Galloway and one of the Rogers brothers was seri ously hurt. The (nr'j Ailment Berlin, Oct. 15. According to the Lokal Anzeiger a Vienna physician, who is fully informed by St. Peters burg doctors, states that the dia gnosis of the czar's complaint wavers be tween cancer in the renal region and inflammation of the kidneys.

Miir:EAPOt.is, Minn., Oct. 15. A lo-? eal paper says in a few days papers will be filed in a lawsuit which will involve the title to real estate valued at ueariy SI, 503, 000, and will call upon United States Senator Squire of Wash ington for an accounting of property entrusted to him. The plaintilT, are Coh William S. King of this city. Phil Remington's famous antagonist in the famous suit of years ago, and Phil Osgood and John S. Goodwin of Ilion, N. Y. A quarter of a century ago King and Remington were close friends. Years ago they invested heavily in western real estate, one of the deals being the purchase of a large amount of property where now stands Seattle. When the financial crash came this property was given j to Remington to hold in trust. Sub j sequer dy Remington, who died a few vears asro, intruste the property to 1 his son-in-law, Squires, who is the defendant named. Squires, accord- ing to the complainants, has never 1 made an accounting of the old j trust. The property, then worth I a few hundred dollars, is now worth millions. Part of it has been sold j and none of the money, according to I the plaintiffs, has reached the copart- ners in the original syndicate. Even the unsold portion, which it is al leged Squires still holds, comprises a number of choice locations in the heart of Seattle. These properties alone are conservatively estimated to be worth from SI, 200,000 to $1, .00,000. PROPOSED RAILWAY TRUST Eastern Faf ties Interested Therein Deny t lie Formation of a Combine. New York, Oct. 15. Senator Calvin S. Brice, president of the Lake Frie and Western railway and chairman of the committee on reorganization of the Union Pacific roads in the senate, had this to say yesterday: "The railroads could not form a trust with the law as it is at present. Such combine would be like a rope of eand and have nothing to hold it to gether. We must have pooling legal ized and permitted before we can get toge ther. John K. Cowen, general counsel of the Baltimore and Ohio road said: "I have heard nothing about the forma tion of the proposed trust and I know that our company is not identified with it." The Delaware, Lake Shore and W'estern railway claim to have no in formation on the subject, although they would be likely to be interested in something of the kind. Drexel, Morgan Co., the bankers, disclaim any knowledge of the mat ter, as did also the Southern railway people. The Southern Pacific people say they know nothing about the pro posed "combine," but state that they will join with the other roads in doing away with the multiplicity of agents. BATTING RECJRDS.

Had Already Killed Two 31 en but Wanted Another. KILLED THE SHERIFF. Then the People Took Him and Hung: Him. Lf.xitgtox, Ky.f Oct, 15. Another lynching was added to the fall series of blue grass lynching bees yesterday. Saturday at the close of the Beatty ville fair, Oscar Morton, the most prominent citizen of Morton, in Powell county, went on the warpath. Only two weeks ago Morton killed his man at Stanton and was out on 5,000 bond to appear at the Powell circuit court. When Morton arrived at the fair he proceeded to get drunk and then went to hunt for Sheriff Simms, who -was his deadly enemy. a feud of long stand ing existing between the two. Simms and Morton met near the en trance to the fair grounds and after a few words botn of them drew their guns and a quick exchange of shots followed, Morton using two guns. His first shot broke the sheriff's right arm at the elbow, and John Hogg, a friend of Simms', whipped out his gun and joined in the battle. When the smoke had cleared away it was found that Sheriff Simms was dead, having been shot through his breast, one in his abdomen and another through his wlu. Morton was shot through the neck, while Hogg was unhurt. Before a crowd could collect Morton was hustled to the county jail and placed under guard. The people became infuriated and a big meeting was at once held on the public square. Colonel John Drum mond mounted a barrel and made a speech in which he said that the mur derer must be hanged, but that the work must be done quietly and with perfect order; Morton had killed two men in less than two weeks' time and he must die by the rope. A mob was quickly formed and marched to the jail. The jailor was overpowered and the keys to Morton's cell obtained. He was found lying in his shirt sleeves on the floor of his cell and af ter a bitter struggle was seized and dragged out. He then became very imprudent and told the mob that he did not care what they did with him, provided they did their work quickly. After a short parley, he was taken to a bridge some distance from town and a rope was placed around his neck. The leaders drew their guns and told him to jump, or he would be riddled with bullets. Turning around the doomed man cursed his captors, and uttering wild imprecations, leaped into space. The jump broke liis neck, and after dangling in the air for some minutes he became still, and a volley of bullets was fired into him. The mob then dispersed and the body was left dangling from the bridge. None of the mob made any attempt to conceal their identity, and the hanging was conducted with as much formality as if it had been a legal af fair. The dead sheriff was only re cently married and leaves a young wife. The murderer was a wealthy man who lived near Stanton. He has killed three men. Coining to the fair he attempted to kill the fireman of the train because he would not in crease the speed the locomotive was running. This is the eighth lynching in Central Kentucky in tne pa.st three months, and the people have deter mined to put down murder if they have to take the law into their own hands every time a man is killed. Morton's relatives are incensed over the lynching and it may be th.it some of the old feuds will be reopened. TURNER DELEGATES. Tliey Are Here to Atjree T'pon "ew Kales for Their nntests.

For Kansas: Tonight and Tuesday fair; colder; north-west winda. not come to their rescue. The grocers have a giant battle before them and may not win; the power of the trusc is almost unparalleled, and the aati-trust law ap i pears to be valueless as a measure of defense. However, tliere is one thing j that the sugar trust as well as ether trusts must learn, and that is that Tu,U00,000 people will not enduro the tyranny of a sugar trust any more than any oclier tyr auuy. The time may come and come I soon when such conspirators as ilavo meyer and Spreckles will be put in the I penitentiary where they belong and the sugar industry will be in the Lauds of a government receiver to be administered for the good of the w hole people. The days of robbery of the people by cor porations are nearly over. Washington Posi: lion. Tom Reed, who is a firm believer in hoodoos, and who would cot think of passing a black cat in a back alley without turning around three times, winked his other eye when he rea 1 of McKialey making thir teen speeches in one day. Kansas has during the past two years learned to keep a sharp eye on the man agement of her char table and penal in Btitutious. This will uot be relaxed. 2so matter which party lias the administra tion of affairs hereafter, no ekulduggery and thieving1 will be permitted. Tom Reed's apeeca delivered at New York Saturday night published ia Sun day moraine's papers did not contain anything- about silver. Perhaps this may have been in deference to New York sentiment which is entirely gold bug. The many friends of Tom Reed in the west are looking for a repetition of his good words ia favor of silver. It will be a great disappointment to them if Mr lleed does not keep tilver to the front. It is just three wetks now until elec tion day. The campuig-n is nearly over. It is to be hoped all the meanest things have been said. Host men have alrendy made up their minds how they are going to vote. Few votes can be changed now. The election will probably be pretty close. Very many votes are ia doubt. The fact that there it a Democratic tick et in the field thi year contributes a great element of thii doubt. It is also impossible to estimata exactly what the prohibition vote will be, although it will undoubtedly be eom- thousands larger than heretofore on account of an inde pendent movement among the churches and church societit-s. The large number of emigrants from western Kansas will materially decrease the vote there, but how much it U impossible to teiL Poli ticians are unable to make estimates this year with any degree of certainty. Elec tion day, itself, can alone determine where the people stai.d. The exposure of the methods of the sugar trust in today's dispatches will not be a total turprisa to our readers, who have from time to time realized the gigantic power and general un icruj u ous ness of those two robbers, llavemeyer and Spreckles. Having purchased from congress the right to exploit ihe people of the United States, they had immedi ately eet about it and would undoubtedly have placed a tax on every man, woman and child in the D lited States for the sugar they consume!, if the wholesale grocers at Chicago mi olhr placed had HEED'S GREAT SPEECH. That is a great speech -which Thomas B. Iieed, of Maine, delivered in Cooper Union, in the city of Is'e w York, last Sat urday evening. It glistens all over with gems of thought. It marks him as a great, broad-gauged man. It is go thoroughly honest and free from petty partisanship and self-laudation that it can be appreciated by every honest and thoughtful reader of whatever political faith. lie said that the depressed condition of business is not the result of the pre.-ecit tariff law, nor of the previous on-?, but of uncertainty, quoting Mr. Wilson's declar ation that the tight is only ju.it bgun. lie referred to the matter of strikes as follows: "Strikes are always unfortun ate things, but not always bad taings. Their suc cess consists not ia their vi-torie, but in their possibie existence. .Men wlij see their way clear to profits will not refuse recompense to those they employ whea the great disorganization of a strike is possible under defense of an in justice on the part of organized labor.

Berlin, Oct. 15. A dispatch received here from Major Leutwein, the imperial commissioner of southwest Africa, who has been in command of the expedition operating against the powerful Hot tentots, under Chief Henrik Witbooi, an nounces that the latter ha3 yielded to the Germans who have occupied hia stronghold. Chief Witbooi has given the Germans much trouble for a long time past. Ad vices from Walfisa Bay on Septeinder 23 last, were received in Berlin and announced that Major Leutwein on August 25th stormed Chief Witbooi's camp. Witbooi succeeded in escaping, but he subsequently sent messengers, with offerings of peace, to the German cammander. During the engagement Lieutenant Diestel and eight German troops were killed and Captain Edorif and tea troops wounded Witbooi has been giving the Germans much trouble for a long time past, and i3 the only chief in that portion of Africa who has held out up to the present against the advance of civilization, and hia raids upon the settlers have prevent ed the development of the country in spite of the activity of the German forces sent against him.

Custom has set aside the first Tuesday in October as the clay for the Veiled Prophet, as the first Wednesday in Sep tember is set for the opening of the 40 days' exposition. Toward that day, there fore, all interest concentrates from the beginning of the show, and from it as a new era are traced all the subsequent festivities. As ruinute description would weary, it can now be treated his torically only. Suffice it, then, to say that the alleged hard times have had no apparent effect here, for the attendance at the exposition has been larger than ever before, and during the festivities the city has literally been jammed all the hotels full, all the public resorts thronged, all the illuminations on a grander scale than ever. Everybody has read of the Veiled Prophet and its attendant orders, but there are other orders of which the his tory is extremely curions.

This will do for a specimen. The Veiled Prophet is far older, dating from 1878, quite a hoary antiquity for St. Louis. Eut this is by a sort of succes sion from New Orleans and Mobile, and the scenio presentations there trace back through the carnival and saturnalia t; the prehistoric festivals of Greece and Rome. And finally those had their ori gin in that symbolic nature worship which seems to have been the first reli gion of the Aryan race. On tho New Year's eve that ushered in that year ilichael Kraft, a prominent citizen of Mobile, had a late supper with a few choice spirits, and on their way home after midnight thry passed a hard ware store belonging to one of them. In a spirit of fun they seized on the cowbells, gongs, rakes, hoes and other implements mid proceeded to wake Mo bile to ,the New Year with discordant racket. Thus began the Cowbellian de Rakian, a society which still flourishes, and yearly the Mystic Krewe awake Mo bile to the joys of innocent fun and the drive-dull-care-away spirit. In 18o2 the Strikers' club was organized in Mo bile. In 1&57 New Orleans organized the Mystio Krewe of Comus, taking the characters in Milton's "Paradise Lost," and1 finally in 1872 Rex, the king of the carnival, assumed jurisdiction of the Crescent City.

Novel eremouv at the Dnnkard t burcU la Oakland. The Dunkard congregation in Oakland observed comciunion with the Lord's supper and cert mony of washing: of feet bnturday night, commencing as 7 o'clock. Their little ci apel near the Oakland jxjutuilice was crowded with communi-c.-ints and interested spectators. The lunkardi in thir scriptural trans lation are extremely literal, especially so on pasiages relating to the supper in the upper tojji at Jerusalem on the night before the Savior was betrayed. A.s one of their speakers expressed it, 'The Lord's sapper was held at supper time and not in the morning. In order to properly commemorate it, therefore, we must do so at supper time. A Lord's supper in the forenoon is not a supper at all." The communicants sat at two long ta bles in the front part of the church. The men sat at one title and the women at the other. Thoy formed a striking group. The women wora little white hoods with 1'uritanic effect. The men were mostly advanced in years, although there were a few young ones among them. The Lord's supper was made more than a mere symbol to ihein, for bread, butter, cake, culd meat, beans and other articles of common food, with water were served. liev. Mr. Mohler of Warretisturg, Mo., conducted the Bt-rvice, and after a prayer ty hirn, the ceremony of feet-washing was commenced The chairs at the table were quietly crawn back a sufficient distance from the table to permit a per soa to pass in between. Then it was no tice! that each communicant wore a towel about hi.s waist. Four bowis of water were produced, from which the 'cold edge"' had teen removed, and the communicants leaned over and took oT the shoes nd Btoc kings from each foot. It was with diiieulty people iu the con pregatiun could sea this ceremony. The man who eat neirest to a Jocknal re porter, however, had corns on nearly every toe, and the general appearance of 1 ir! foot was that it had played "this lit tle pig went to market" with a type-setting machine. The man who sat next to him found the water colder than he liked and mde a face. Underneath the table one couid occasionally catch glimpses of feet that were pretty and dainty. Each Cv)mmunicant, when his feet had been washed, took the basin and performed the same menial eervice to the person next. After this cerenony had been comple ted the service closed with a toug in long meter without accompaniment. BAMEL'S HAND. A. Q. Wilson Xow Contemplates tTemper ace Organization. A. Q.

The victim of the theft was Joseph McCarthy of Mayetti, who had just arrived in town. He was walk ing across the Btreet from the Rock Isl and depot, when "Min" Sounders stopped him and demanded, "say daddy, how much money have you got for me to night':' "1 have no money for you," replied Mr. McCarthy. "Oh, yes. you Lave,'' persisted the col ored woman. "I say I have not" With that the Saunders woman threw her arms on the victim's shoulder, and unknown to him began trying to locate his pocket book. It is alleged that she found it in his rear trouaer'a pocket McCarthy didn't notice it was gone until he had gone fully a block. He at once reported the affair to the police and suid the purse contained sixteen f 5 gold pieces and a $10 bill. From their descriptions "Min" Saunders and her sister were ar rested. The money was not found on them, but McCarthy identities the wo men. The women were afterwards ar rested on a warrant from Justice Ches ney's court where they will have a hear ing next Thursday morning. They are out on f 0UO bond each.

Two Weeks More In Which to Register for the State Election. Less than two weeks now remain in which to register for the November state election. '1 he registration books close on the k!8th inst, which is ten days before election, and after that date no one can have his name recorded with the elect of the city. Tho voters are now registering rapidly i and between seventy-five and a hundred names are recorded every day by the commissioner. The books show a regis tration of 0,212, while the total registra tion in the city has always been above j 7,uu0. j A great many are refused registration because of their ineligibility. The com missioner says that the greater number of these are young men almost 21 years old. They have heard the old-time po litical speaker tell how "I commenced to vote the ticket when I was 18 years old and have voted it ever since," and when they attempt to follow his ex ample they find serious obstacles in the wav. These young would-be voters be long to all political parties. HEAL ESTATE PROSPECTS. As Viewed by J. S. Collins Farms 3Iust Sell First. J. S. Collins said today in speaking of the condition of real estate: "I find a great inquiry for farms principally from i Ohio and Pennsylvania and if Kansas had raised good crops this year there would have been a very large immigra tion this winter but in spite of bad crops a great many people will come to Kansas this fall and winter. "The greatest drawback of a country 13 a laci of confidence am jv.j: the people at home. A man hears people talk of hard times until he thinks he is hard up but just as soon as a people commence to brighten up the feeling is entirely changed and that is just what is hap pening now. "Farms will have to sell before real estate in the city commences to move much. The trouble with lopeka now is that the city got ahead of the country and this must be reversed before the oituatiou is greatly improved." LOCAL MENTION. Jacob Shaffer, the champion billiard ist, by reason of his success in the recent triangular tournament, has been engaged to give an exhibition in Topeka the lat ter part of this month.

In this report Bank Commissioner Breidenthal recommends that the law of 1893 be again fjassed for his department, permitting the employ ment of two deputies, one clerk and a stenographer, and further, that the fee for examination of banks be increased, as the present provision of the law upon the fee question has proved inadequate for the maintenance of the department He is of the opinion that when a re ceiver is appointed for a bank, and a no tice posted that it is closed, that this should place the bank in the hands of a receiver and protect it from auy legal process, and that the United States court should be prevented from appointing re ceivers for banks until it is shown that the bank commissioner has neglected and refused to perform his duty. Mr. Breidenthal says the expense? of a receivership are simply outrages and par take very much of the nature of high way robbery legalized of course. TOPEKA 31INSTREL HAND.

For Instance, There I Tievivstl of the Ulster Coat ami the Opera Cloak, and It Will lie Welcome A Handsome (suit. Winter Hat. Special Correspondence. New York, Oct. 11. Fashion rinrrs the changes every season, and in spite of Solomon's assertion that there i3 nothing new nnder the sun she man ages to give a deft touch here and thert that makes the old seem new at least. I was thinking of what she gives us for novelties in the way of wraps. There is a new ulater coat, where the I ack and li t' U, i f :J 3 i i ,J J t i i 5 OPEKA CLOAK AND ULSTER COAT. front are cut exactly like the old ones we have worn before, but with two lial plaits of the material hanging from th tihoulders to the feet and starting from the underarm seam. Around the bottom there are two rows of heavy stitching, and on each plait art! set two enormous bone buttons, with four more down tli front to close the waist. TLe collai turns down, and the sleeves are the kind of gigot where the uxiper fullness fall; over tho elbow, like a separate puff. There is really not a new idea in the whole plan, yet the ulster coat is class ed among the novelties, and it is unde niably stylish. The opera cloak called mnv is long, reaching quite to the pround in the front and trailing a little in the back. There was one made of brown satin, brocaded with enormous peonies with natural preen leaves. It was lined with peony colored satin. Thj upper cap? was of brown velvet, with unbleached guifjure and jet passementerie. Thii capo was sprung and had tubs in front and a plaited ruff collar of brown silk. The whole effect was gorgeous. Others, far prettier and more elegant to lay taste, are made of the new wide ribbed velutina in the rich evening sha les. One was of delicate niodo color, and the col lar was of heavy white guipure, stretched over cherry satin and sewed thereto with garnet and pearl beads, the 1 eads fol lowing the pattern. White cus-hmero is also seen sometimes for evening wraps, frequently trimmed with the silky white Tibetan goat fur. Wraps are very various this season. There is scarcely any shape that is not represented, and every possible and im possible material is employed alone and together. I saw one fur cape for a young lady made with a short capo of moire astrakhan and another cane with tuiu down collar above it of ermine. Frieze will be considered very high stylo lor runabout wraps for young folks, the coarser and rougher the batttr, but I think the coats,, short and long, with their different little distinguishing fea tures, will be the principal favorites this season. When there is an entire suit made of some one of the season's goods, it always has a dressy effect tuat noth ing else can give. These are made in such a variety of styles that no one could mention them all in one letter or two. A handsome one is made of tan colored pebble suiting, the skirt quite plain, but rather flaring around the bottom. The coat is snug in the back, with fluted skirts, the fronts hanging looso to show a vest of the same trimmed with braid in the same shade. Two fancy arrange ments mado of the braid cross the bust. Tho collar is of seal brown velvet em broidered with silk, and on each front of the skirt is a pattern of embroidery in two shades of brown. The wearer of this suit added a white chiffon tie, with ear ruftles and rinne stone buckle, and wore a brown fe't "fiat," with a jacqueminot rose set un- fern ir Am wit FALL SUITS. der the brim and a tuft of tan colored plumes. These flats are just the shape of those in vegue iu 1S52, but they are pretty and becoming to some faces. Speaking of hats reminds me of a pic ture hat of noil felt iu two shades of gray trimmed with seven good sized plumes, all Hack. The shape was a "flat" somewhat accentuated. In near ly all of the large hats there are two to three feathers standing up in empire style. Ostrich plumes take the lea l un mistakably as trimming for hats.

F'r instance, kin I infer from yer very proper Knglish languidgo that the critter referred to as Abraham died of throat dis ease?" "As fur as I could obsarve, tho noose took in his hull neck," sez she, hllin up her pipe fur another smoke.

'The multitoode was down on an am bishus man," sez she as she turns her gaze from my eddecat ed hog, who had sot down to rest hisself, to a fresh heap of sile a few rods away. "And was it Abraham's ambi shun to possess a better claim nor this?" "It was. He was so enthoosias tic and ambishus to possess the next claim to the north of us, to gether with the 'TK WILL PLEASE OVER LOOK IT." owner's bosses and wagon, and so forth, that he couldn't sleep o" nights. Abraham wasn't alius kind and luvin and tender as a husband, but the kuss had a proper am bishun, fur which he should be praised." "And I'm thinkin that proper ambi shuu led hi in to walk over and do the Jumpin act?" "That's the way of it." 'And did that claim owner turn out to be a tenderfoot who could be skeert off with a hoot and a shot, and who ar' by this time 200 miles on his way back to Missoury or Arkansaw? Don't answer me if it will harrer up yer sorrowful feelin's to do so." "Thetrubble was," sez she as she heaves a sigh and gits down to scratch my edde catcd hog on tho back with a stick and tharby add to his happiness, "the trubble was that when the tenderfoot got skeert he run in tho wrong direckshun and brung up in the midst of a crowd which had no proper nppreciashun of ambishun.

Incident Showing: That Death Comes In the Most Sincular Ways. Special Correspondence. Chicago, Oct. 11. Twice within the past ten days has the telegraph told oi death caused by unprecedented acci dents. Tho first occurred in the state of New York on a railroad leading from Buffalo. A freight car in the middle of a moving train was derailed, but as the track was straight it bumped along on the ties for a mile or more, and no one noticed it. When the first crve came, however, it plunged to the kit. Unfor tunately at that moment another freight train was passing on the opposite track in the opposite direction, and the lung ing car struck the locomotive cab and kill id the fir 'man. The other singular and fatal accident occurred in New Jer sey, where a bicyclist collided with a carriage at night, and the handle bar of his machine was driven into his abdo men, causing almost instant death. Although the first accident was un precedented, so far as I have been able to learn, rail casualties somewhat simi lar have occurred several times, the most serious being on the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore railroad a little south of Northeast, Md., on Oct. 12, 1S89.

The door of one of the freight cars was loose and fell on tho north bound track di rectly in front of the flying express en gine. The huge machine was thrown high in air, and a general smash of the passenger train followed. Two persons were mortally hurt and 17 others pain fully. Unless you read the dispatches that tell of accidents regularly you cannot have any adequate idea of the horribly curious ways in which death may come. Nearly every one will remember, how ever, the singular death of a Brooklyn clergyman a few years ago. One of his children was ailing, and the father wished to administer a dose of medicine, lie took the cork out of the bottle and held it between his teeth. Then, in or der to amuse the little one, he threw his head back and laughed, drawing the cork into his throat and choking. Sur gical aid was summoned at once, but the cork could not be removed, and after two or three days of the most intense suffering the minister died. More singular still was the fato of Mrs. Anna Beatty of Milwaukee in 1SU0. A fly of the bine bottle variety got into her nostrils and was removed with difficulty, leaving a strange itching. She supposed it would shortly disap pear, but it persisted, and the next day her nose and throat were badly swollen. A doctor was called, and he discovered that her nose and throat were infested with maggots. Tho fly had laid its eggs in the poor woman's nasal passages. She died after about two weeks of awful tor ture, as it was found impossible to do anything for her. Jonathan Mackoy of Monmouth, Ills., met death a few j-ears ago in quite as unusual though not so painful a man ner. He was seated on the iron seat of a combined thrashing and traction engine, steering tho unwieldy machine over a rough road, when ono wheel ran into a deep rut. The jar detached a chain belt, and it flew upward, striking him in the head, and killed him instantly. Near Akron, O. Farmer Barnes caus ed a hiding burglar to come to his death in a most singular and unexpected man ner in 1891. The farmer went to his barn to do the evening "chores" and noticed a movement in the hay in the mow. Skunks had recently troubled him a good deal, and he jumped to the conclusion that tho movement was caused by one of those odoriferous ani mals. So he grabbed his pitchfork and stealthily got close enough to jam tho implement into the hay where the skunk was supposed to be. The tines struck something solid and stuck. Pushing the hay aside, the farmer found that he had struck a negro, and that one of tho tines had passed iitto the head just be low the left eye. Unconsciousness fol lowed shortly and then death. Later tho negro was found to be one who had broken into several Akron houses and had been pursued by the Akron polie the lught before his death. John F. Willocoiiby.

His Satanic majesty was in excep tionally g-ood humor. Business had been excellent for some time, aud he vrished to show his appreciation of Lis extraordinary run of g-ood luck. "Dantello!" he called to one of his sprites, "I wish to g-ive a little relax ation to some one of the most deserv ing1 of my victims. You are familiar with them. Whom would you sug--pest?" "That depends, sire," replied the sprite,- "upon what you call deserv- fcasr-" "Well," said his satanic majesty thoughtfully, "I would like to be- stow some little favor upon the man j who did the most to make a hell upon i earth." j "I think I know the mank sire," said J the sprite deferentially, "but lest I be mistaken would you kindly be a j little more specific?" "I refer to the man who by his in nate devilishness has civen me sub- i jects without number, who above all I others has driven men to the use of profane languag-e, who by his tiend- l&hness has driven men, otherwise pood and noble, to perdition." "I thoug-ht I could not be mistaken, s.'re. I will bring- him to you di rectly." "Who is your selection?" VWho could it be, sire, but the man who invented the big-, clumsy, horri ble railroad-exit turnstile?" CURES INSOMNIA. A Man Hired to Squirt Water his Employer's Window. Not far from Washington square, in Chicago, a man has been earning SI a night in a novel way, and at the eame time is breaking- the ordinances which limit the use of water through garden hose. He begins work when the master of the house g-oes to bed, and remains on duty until he is con vinced in his own mind that his em ployer has gone sound to sleep. The man is paid 1 a night to stand under h;s employer's window and play the stream from the hose on the window panes. His employer's friends say that he is such a great traveler that he cannot sleep unless he hears the swish of water under the port hole of his cabin, so that he is oblig-ed to g-et up a substitute when on land, and that the nearest approach to this soothing- swish is a slender stream of water moving- over the window panes. The fact is, the man had discovered a cure for insomnia which is working well in his case. The nlea was sug gested to him one afternoon when he was stretched on the sand at the edge of the lake. The monotonous break ing of the waves lulled him to slum ber, and that afternoon he e njoyed his first good nap for a week. t?oo after he hired a man to squirt water on his bedroom window, and he says that the muffled sound kept up for an hour sends him to sleep every night. TAUGHT HIM THE MANLY ART. How a Thin-begged, Narrtnr- Chested Hoy Surprised Ilia Auaiiaots. A well-known PhiladelplrJan, who in his youth was g-iven a little to sport, has a particularly fine boy who is very spirited. A school he suffered very much up to a few montJis a-o from big-g-er boys, who abused and "pounded" him. Enjoining the lad to the strictest secrecy, the father emplo3ed a retired pug-Uist, a little bit of a fellow, and had iihn g-ive the boy lessons several times a week in boxing-. At odd moments he practiced with the boy himself. fin ally the lad, with that assurance and sense of prowess which comes under such circumstances, wanted to be loose, but the father held him bade until he felt perfectly satisfied. ZSTot loug- ago he told his son to go ahead. An opportunity soon presented itself, and it would be hard to describe the sensation that followed when the young- whipper snapper who had been taking- thumps for a year or two sailed in and laid out completely two of tho biggest bullies and brag-g-arta in the school. W here Royal Ashes Us, Henry VIII. is buried in accordance with the provisions of his will along side Jane Seymour, his third wife and mother of Edward VI., in St. George's chapel in Windsor castle. In the same royal vault are interred Henry VI., Edward IV. and his queen, George IIL and his queen, George I V. the Princess Charlotte, the duke of Kent, the duke of York, "William IV. and his queen and other members of the royal family. It is an interesting- place to visit, and the keep of the cas-tle near by is where James L of Scotland was confined. Painting 00 Corn. It is said that the smallest piece of painting in the world has recently been executed by a Flemish artist. It is painted on the smooth side of a grain of common white corn, and pictures a mill and a miller mounting a stairs with a sack of grain 011 his back. The mill is represented as standing on a terrace, and near it are a horse and cart, while a erroup of several peasants is shown in fcihe road near by. The picture is beantifully distinct, every object being f.nished with microscopic fidelity. Art and Nature. The aesthetic Frau Von St had contrived to secure the leading hero in a well-known theater, and a. great favorite with the ladies, as her coin- 1 panion at the supner table. The lady displayed unlimited conversa tional powers, and her enthusiasm waxed more fervid as she proceeded. "Tell me how you feel when you have played the part of Romeo?" she whis pered. "Hungry!" replied the actor, with the most artless and indifferent ir in the world. Tffr ft In o.

The name of Wilson and the new tariff is familiar in most every household, and if you will come and see us Tomor row and during the week we will show you what the revised tariff lias done in the way of reducing prices on Underwear and Hosiery. Never in our fourteen years as the "Bargain Givers" among you, have we been in a position to offer such values, and a casual glance into our store will make vou think we are an exclusive Underwear and Hosiery House. K if 39 Ladies' Swiss Ribbed Vests and Pants, made of fine Egyptian cotton, ecru and natural colors, and every garment fleeced. This you will find well worth 50c. 40c. Ladies' Extra Heavy Vests and Pants, all cot ton but heavily fleeced, which makes it as warm as wool. We have two cases of this number in cluding the natural color. These are handsomely cro cheted and taped necks. 48C. Ladies' Ribbed Vests and Pants. With a great many underwear, must contain a certain per cent of wool. F or those we have what is called the 4"non shrinking," about half and half of wool and cotton, at the unheard of price of 50c. Ladies' Vests and Pants 75 per cent wool. Such goods at this price has never been shown. Silver gray, fancy neck, beauti fully shaped and warrant ed not to shrink. 4&c Ladies' Ribbed Union or Combination Suits. Just think what you are getting for so little money; these goods run full sizes and lengths, made of fine Egyptian cotton and come in both the gray and ecru. Ladies Ribbed Union or Combination Suits. You will find in this a fine combed maco yarn, fleece lined, full sized. A great bargain at the price. Children's Undcrvroar. it 98C. 3 Ladies' Wool Ribbed Vests and Pants. This number is very striking in appearance, having a silk front aril crocheted neck with silk tape drawn through. Our most popu lar price for I23' early fall is this number, natur al in color, soft in finish and our greatest trouble is to get enough of t h e m They come in vests, pants and drawers. Children's Camel's Hair Underwear. 1 his is indeed a 2o 35 beauty, strictly 22 40 all wool, has a 24 45 French neck fG SO and fine enough tor the most 32 65 fastidious. 34 70 Children's Scarlet Underwear.

Gentlemen's Shirts and Drawers. At this price we have gone through our stock and selected three numbers, such as were 79C. Gentlemen's Shirts and Drawers. This particular number we bought nearly 100 dozen of, and have sold lots of them for 31-00 each, but to make sales large and cut down the quantity, out they go at 79c. while we have already sold a great many of them, we still have a good assort ment left. These will be shown in baskets on the main floor. I9C. Ladies' Wool Hose. Our all wool plain black seam less hose, formerly sold at 25c; will be put to the front at 19c. Ladies' Wool Hose. It has always been and will be for ages to come, a sort of rivalry between mer chants to get the best stocking to sell for 25c. We think we have the edge this time, when you see our great leaders in ribbed and plain, at 25 cents. most all on our shelves :it the new price and are bul let proof against all com petition, we haven't room nor time to quote fuithfr than this one number. Put your expectations as high as you like and we will promise not to disappoint you. 9 Gentlemen's Shirts and Drawers.

And further, to work for securing statutory enactments by which to pro vide for the submission of important measures to the people, pendintr the adoption of the Initiative an 1 Referen dum amendment to the constitution of the state. While the reform forces, especially the Populists, have declared in a formal manner in convention for the Initiative and Referendum principles, yet with our advocating the measures as t.u issue, we are satisfied that they express none the less the honest convictions of the rank and file of all the parties in the state who believe that srovernmants derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, expressed ai the ballot box; and not from the will of their rep resentatives who have been clothed by the votes of the people with a little brief authority. We therefor urge upon every ?ood citizen, regardless of party affiliations, who believe in a jjavernment of the peo ple, for the people and by the people, to use their influence to elect only such candidates for the legislator who will unquestionably pledge himself, if elect ed, to use his vote acd his influence for direct legislation by the Initiative and Referendum in the state of Kansas. This matter must come before the next legislature and must be anted upon bv it. There is no time to be lort. I everything in your power before the election to secure a leg islature favorable to this most vital measure of reform. And by organization ai once in every ward and township in the state of Initiative and Referendum clubs; put the,wLeels in motion by petitions from the electors of such precincts to the legislature to enact such laws as the people demand, and thus be ready to command the attention of that body to these matters as iooa its it is organized. Insist upon prompt and energetic ac tion along these lines until the people shall rule, in fact, as they now do under representative system only in name. N. B. All who are ready to unite on these demands are requested to write us at once at our address herewith. Doue by order of the Initiative and Referen dum association.

On the character of the nominations made in the legislative districts in Kan sas, largely depends the election of a United States senator by the legislature next winter. The reports received at the various party headquarters show that fuaion has been effected in sixty districts. In flf-ty-nine districts the fusion is between the Democrats and Populists, and in one district in Scott county between the Re publicans and Democrats. In most of the instances where there is fusion the candidate endorsed by both parties is a Populist, although in a few of the eastern counties where there is not much Populist strength the fusion has been effected by selecting a Democrat. Chairman Breidenthal has been watch ing the character of the fusion deals, and, although he will not talk about the mat ter, it is known that he is satisfied that if the fusion candidates for the legislature are elected, their votes for United States senator, or at least the votes of a major ity of them, will, in the fusion caucus, be for a Populist for senator in preference to a Democrat. The counties constituting single dis tricts in which there is fusion are John son, Anderson, Wilson, Woodson, Coffey,1 Nemaha. Marshall, Wabaunsee, Chau tauqua, Morris, Clay, Ottawa, Harper, Barber, Pratt, Barton, Rice, liusaell, Jewell, Rush, Pawnee, Edwards, Kiowa, Commanche, Clark, Hodgeman, Trego, Graham, Norton, Gove, Meade and Se'w ard. The counties constituting more than one district: Atchison, two, fusion in both; Cherokee, two, fusion in one; Doug las, two, fusion in both; Labette, two, fusion in both; Osage, twofusion in one; Shawnee, three, fusion in two; Cowler, two, fusion in both: Snmner, two, fusion in one; Reno, two, fusion in both.
