G110YER ASTONISHED At the Strength of the Move ment Out West. Finds Out There Are People West of the Alleghenies WHO AREN'T GOLDBUGS Don Cameron Shipping Free Coinage Literature Into Pennsylvania by the Car Load. Washington, April 2a Every mem ber of the administration who has been west within the pB3t few weeks has re turned with marvelous stories about the spread of the "16 to 1 craze," for that is the word that expresses it E. A. Mosely, a Massachusetts man, and secretary of the interstate commerce committee, has just come from a trip ex tending as far as the Pacific coasr. "I not only did not meet a man," he said, "but did not hear of one, with the single exception of the editor of the Portland Oregonian, who was not an advocate of the free and un limited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. It is everywhere mani fest, and absolutely wipes out old politi cal lines. The reception given to ex Congressman Sibley and Geu. A. J. Warner, at Denver, was significant. They spoke from the steps of thej state capitol, and the space in front of them was filled. Before the speaking began a young lady sang a song, the refrain of which began 'We'll hang the gold bug?,' the tune being the same as that to which during the war was sung the words, "We'll hung the traitors,' and the enthusiasm of the multitude as the words rang out was comparable to nothing the country has experienced since the days of 1S61-1865. When Sibley spoke the entire crowd was with him; there were neither Democrats or Republicans, but all silver men, who unauiuiously ap proved everything he said. "There was anoth'er thing that struck me," continued Mr. Mosely. "In the sleeping car coming out of St Louis there were ten gentlemen, and six of them were reading 'Coins' Financial School,' and reading it as if it were gos pel to them. It looks to me as if much missionary work would have to be dona if the spread of the silver sentiment is to be overcome. TALKING MILDER NOW. Administration Not So Anxious to Silver Men "Cranks." Call Washington, April 26. "During the ner.t year," said a member of the cabinet today, "we are going to witness a re markable campaign in this country. It will be neither sectional nor political. Two economic ideas are to struggle for the mastery in the minds of the people. It will be a campaign of the printing presses. Millions upon millions of books and pamphlets bearing upon the silver question will be circulated. Moreover, clubs will be formed for and against the' free coinage of silver in every state, every county, almost every township and school district in the country. "In my opinion it will be the most re markable intellectual struggle ever seen in the world. It is simply that and noth ing more. If anyone imagines it to be an array of the debtor against the creditor class he is very much mistaken. It is not a question of selfishness on one side or the other. You can't stir up the American people in that way over a mat ter of dollar and cents. No, the great campaign must be regarded as an evi pence of the wonderful intellectual activ ity of our people, of their desire to study these questions, of pride of opinion, when once formed, of the spirit of pro selyting in a cause which chances to en list one's interest. No other period could produce such agitation on such a question. "AH this is a good sign," continued Mr. Cleveland's adviser, "it all speaks for the intellectual activity, for the intelligence the curiosity of our peopla You can't fool a people like that: thev are too smart, too inquisitive; they "think too much for themselves. If Coin is right the people will see it and they will hon estly say so. But if Coin teaches false doctrine these American people will quickly detect his sophistry. The first wave of opinion, representing the con clusions of the most improssionable the easiest to be convinced, the loudest talk ers, does not settle the matter by anv any mean?. This phrase is hackneyed but I tirmly believe in the sober second thought of the American people, and in" Stside!" Ud0Ubt UWiU 0a th0 DON CAMERON A MISSIONARY.

INDIANA STIRRED UP. All Talking About Silver Farmers Quit Work and Gather Together. Indianapolis, Ind, April 26. The politicians from both the old parties, who come in from different parts of the state, say the wave of currency discus sion is touching every part of Indiana. Even the schoolboys are taking sides on the question. Farmers, it is reported, "lay oil" a day now and then to meet at the cross-roads store and review the latest phases of the discussion. J. O. Henderson, ex-auditor of state went to hi3 old home (Kokomo) the other day and spent a few hours talking with the farmers of Howard county. "I was surprised to find that everybody is talk ing about the currency question," said, he. "You do not hear much else dis cussed in the smaller cities and towns. The tariff question never stirred up half so much diseussion. The people are talk ing in an independent way, too. You hear fellows say that unless the Republican party or tiie Democratic party does this thing or that thing they will never vote with it again, and they talk as if they meant it The free silver craza seems to be taking hold of the people." SWEEPING MICHIGAN. The Free Silver Iilea Has 3 Firm Hold There. Indianapolis, April 23. A prominent Republican clergyman of Detroit was here today, and said the free silver craze was sweepiug over Michigan. He said that if Gov. Matthews would run for president on a free silver platform he would carry Michigan by a tremendous majority. The negotiations of some of Gov. Matthews' friends for the purchase of th8 Indianapolis Sentinel are still go ing on. It is understood that Consul-General Morse has been offered $175,000 for the paper by ex-Auditor of State Henderson, representing the Matthews syndicate. The offer has not yet been accepted. MAJORITY FOR FRKE S1LVFR NOW. Statements from Members of the Missouri Legislature. Sedalia, Mo., April 20. The Evening Democrat of this city has interviewed by mail the members of the Missouri legis lature on the silver question, and in to day's issue publishes their answers to the following question: "Are you in favor of the free coinage of silver by the United States at the present ratio?" Five Republican and seven Democratic senators answered in the affirmative and four Republican senators in the negative. In the house seventeen Republican rep resentatives and twenty-four Democrats replied in the affirmative and fourteen Republicans and two Democrats and two Populists in the negative. IN IOWAl" Free Silver Democrats Will Call a Confer ence in 3 ane. Des Moinks, Iowa, April 26.. As a result of the outcome of the Democratic conference here the free silver Demo crats have determined to call a state con vention of bi-metallists, to meet in this city early in June. Measures are being taken to secure the attandance upon the meeting of Senator Wolcott of Colorado and other free silver men of national reputation to deliver ad dresses. SMASHED A SALOON. HOWMES. GALVIN WRECKED A LEAV ENWORTH DOGGERY. Gives" Tnor Morrill a Pointer on How to Do It. Leavenworth, April 26. There was much excitement on Cherokee street near Sixth yesterday afternoon over the storming of Patrick Doran's saloon by Mrs. James Gaivin. The taking of the place only occupied a few moments, tut it was mighty interesting for Doran while it lasted. The trouble at Doran's place was occa sioned by the presence of James Gaivin, who was on a grand spree yesterday. His faithful wife was solicitous about him and started out to hunt him up and bring him home. After a long search she located him in Doran's saloon, and entered with but lit tle ceremony. She is said to have carried a little brass poker under her cloak and to have made her presence known to her husband by tapping him several times with it. In short order the cudgel was taken from her hands, when she seized the large iron poker of the proprietor of the place and landed with it a number of times on the beautiful glass fixtures in sight. While she was smashing up cut glass, several visitors of the place took occasion to leave in a hurry. One of them is sup posed to be running yet. Mrs. Gaivin finally went outside and Doran thought all was ovar, but it was not Before he could collect hia rattlati thoughts.bricks began to come in through tne large plate glass windows of the in stitution and there was a crashing of glass that could be heard for blocks. Doran guessed who was throwing them and putting his head out of the door said: "Mrs. Gaivin. are you drunk or crazy?" Fur an answer she passed a brick to him from her position on the street and he promptly terminated the iuterview. A large crowd gathered and there were many threats of having Deople ar rested. It was stated that Doran had been warned not to sell any liquor to Galviu, and his wife was not condemned for mak ing things interesting for him. MRS. GItANT IN CHICAGO. She and Mrs. Sartoris Arrive to Attend Memorial Services. Chicago, April 26. Mrs. U. a Grant and daughter, Mrs. Sartoris, arrived in Chicago today to attend the Grant me morial services at the Auditorium to morrow under the auspices of the press club. The ladies were met at the Btation by ex-Mayor Washburn, and driven, to the Auditorium hotel. OCCUPUOBIHTO. British Have Landed in Nicar agua it i3 Said. Early Reports Said a Respite Had Been Granted. FLED FROM THE TOWX. The Inhabitants Left Corinto for the Interior. Great Excitement Prevails Anions the Nicarajruans. London, April 26. In well informed English quarters here today it is de clared that the British ultimatum to Nicaragua has not been modified and in the absence of definite news from Ad miral Stevenson it is said he had already occupied the port of Corinto. Washington, April 26. Later advices received here do not agree with the early reports of a 24-hour respite. Offi cials here intimate that the British have already occupied Corinto. ABANDONING CORINTO. Whole Families Are Departing: For the Interior Arms Removed. Corinto, Nicaragua, April 26. Special Commissioner General Duarate, who brings the reply of the Nicaraguan gov ernment to Admiral Stephenson's note and proclamation, arrived from Managua, The reply will not, however, be deliv ered until the eleventh hour. It is un derstood it will be of such a nature as to bring about the occupation of Corinto by the English. The local authorities are making prep, arations to abandon the town. Whole families are departing for various parts of the interior. All arms are being re moved from the capital. No popular demonstration has been made, but the prevailing feeling is bit ter against all English people. Admiral Stephenson informed Special Commis sioner Duarte that the ultimatum expires at 12 o'clock midnight tonight. The Eng lish will doubtless land their forces oa the morning of April 27. GREAT EXCITEMENT AT MANAGUA. Indemnity Money Raised But People Don't Want to Give In Too Quickly. New York, April 26. A special dis patch to the World from Managua says: "The government has assurances that it will receive from voluntary subscrip tion more than enough to pay the British claim within the time allowed by the ultimatum. There is strong feeling among the people against acceding too quickly to the British demands. The money was offered by Leon City, and the government seemed ready to ac cept it and pay the claim, but was deter red by the feeling that if it should seem too ready to obey England it would cause serious internal trouble. There is great excitement here. Two thousand men are ready to march to Corinto at a moment's notice. Compliments the United Stated. London, April 26. The Pall Mall Gazette commenting on the trouble be tween great Britain and Nicaragua says that nothing could be more court eously correct than the attitude of the United States in the difficulty, adding: "It is a good omen for a close under standing upon the China-Japan question. Our action may be expected to teach the Spanish American states that none of them are too insignificant to behave de cently to foreigners." Honduras May Aid Nicaragua. New York, April 26. A special to the World from Tegicigalpa says: The movement of soldiers toward Gracias Adioscontinues.This seems to confirm the rumors that Honduras will aid Nicara gua with troops if needed in resisting the English. A strong feeling has been aroused throughout Central America against Great Britain. LATE SPORTING NEWS. A Meeting at the National Effects a Per manent Organization. The Kansas baseball league is assured. Representatives from Topeka, Leaven worth, Emporia, Troy and Manhattan met at the National hotel yesterday and effected a permanent organization. 1L T. Mote of Topeka was made pres ident and t. V. Gasmann of Leaven worth was elected secretary. The organization's real name is "The Kansas Baseball Association." It is stated positively that both Lawrence and Atchison and possibly Wichita may come into the association. A constitution and bylaws were adopted and signed by H. T. Mote of Topeka, F. W. Gassman of Leavenworth, W. S. Johnson of Troy (who held the proxy of county treasurer W. B Devereaux of Doniphan county), and Ed Etyeo of Emporia. The Man hattan delegates left before the work was finished. In a general way the same rules as those governing the national league will be enforced and the umpires are given full authority to fine any play er. The schedule of games was left with E. G. Morphy of Leavenworth, who is an enthusiastic fan and has done this sort of work before. The season will be opened May 16, 17 and IS at Topeka with three games with Leavenworth, which will be returned the next week. Emporia will not be ready to play ball until the 20th. Manager Mote's success in disposing of season tickets has been indifferent. At Leavenworth Manager Gassman suc ceeded in getting $1,050 subscribed ia eight hours, which is more than Mr. Mote has secured in as many days. He is somewhat discouraged, but will keep on hustling and try to secure enough to con tinue the improvements. The east and north fences are finished and work was commenced yesterday on the grand stand. Mr. Mote needs the substantial sup- EVENING.

Items of Interest Regarding: Horses and Horsemen From the Peerless Princess. Jack Jewett shipped the pacer Tom Ogden, 2:12J, and the three-vear-old Brittin, by Atnlete Rex, from Welling ton. They are now taking their work over the mile track. Dock Dulaney, pacer, by Ashland Wilkes, and Stella Woodline, were the first to do a little speed work last week. These two colts are about the best gaited pair that one ever saw; of course Da laney's pacer can outspeed the filly, but then he's a pacer. They worked two heats, stepping the last half in each ia 1:40 and the last quarter in 40 seconds. Driver's Chandler, Malsby and Parry worked four heats with Burleigh by Hurly Burley. Tom Lee by Shadeland Onward, and Prince Stewart by Egotist. The Egotist horse had the pole with the others in the order named. They would open up every heat from the three-quarter pole home and step that fast last quarter in 35 seconds. Nellie Cobb, 2.23, worked a mile in 2:26, last quarter in 32 seconds. The boys all say that Cash Hedderson's mare, Patchen Wilkes Maid, will trot in 2:10 mis year, a quarter in 31 is just easy for her. Susie G worked a couple of alow miles in 2:30, and Tautline, 2, pacer by Woodline, went a half in 1:19. There is another John R. Gentry in the country. Maxey B, by Ashland Wilkes, paced a couple of miles in 2:40 and 2:37, and the last quarter of the second mile in 32 seconds, last eighth in 15. Wichita Beacon. TWO KANSAS GAMES.

Justice Furry fined Frank Oliver $25 and costs today for assaulting A. A. TownSend. The assault occurred at Sil ver Lake, and Townseud took three front teeth from his pocket and showed them to the court as an evidence that he had been assaulted. The row had not been altogether one sided, however, for a scar on Oliver's forehead, where Townsend had hit him, had not entirely healed. After the assault Oli ver went to Squire West of told him what he done, and silver Lake, paid a fine $3.50. He avoid fur Furry held constitute of $1 and costs; total hoped in this way to ther prosecution. Justice that this did not a prosecution within the meaning of the law, inasmuch a9 the complaining wit ness was not notified. Oliver appealed the caBe to the district court.

Minister Kurino Says Japan's Interests Are Ours. United States Should Ally Itself Against Europe. New York, April 26. A special cable to the World from Tokio says: The Russian and French fleets in these waters are prepared to stop Japanese communications unless Japan abandons all claims upon territory in Manchuria. Washington, April 26. Minister Ku rino, of Japan, today gave the Associated Press a very significant interview on the eastern question. He said that in his opinion the commercial interests of the United States in the east, particu larly in Japan, are so much more exten sive and important than those of Ger many or France, that it would be emi nently desirable in the event of a Franco German Alliance with Russia to prevent the consummation of the peace treaty for the United States to take an active part in offsetting such an alliance. Mr. Kurino wished it to be clearly under stood, however, that this' was hi? per sonal conviction. He had not, he said, received any instructions from his gov ernment and there had been no sugges tion of an official or unofficial character from him to the state department that the United States should be enlisted In its support His views were the result, of his per sonal information of the extent of United States interests in the Orient The commercial interests of the United States in Japan are very much greater than those of Germany and France. Prac tically their interests are little or noth ing, while those of the United States are very extensive. 'The British trade comes first," he said, "and after comes the trade of the United States. It would be eminently proper, therefore, if the United State?, in consideration of her superior commercial interests, should offset a demonstration on the part of France and Germany, if any such motion is actually made. "I am not officially informed that it has been made, nor am I apprehensive of the move should it be made. But in the event of its being realized then there is little doubt ia my opinion that the commercial interests of the United States' would make it expedient to take part in the issue. "This of course would not mean that the United States was to engage in a fight. Its co-operation would undoubt edly be effective without any radical steps. WILDE'S TRIAL BEGUN. He Used to Meet Taylor in Perfumed Darkened Rooms. London, April 26. Oscar Wilde and Alfred Taylor were brought in for trial today at the Old Bailey and pleaded not guilty. Men and women twenty deep filled the corridors of the Old Bailey be fore 10 a. m. and fought vainly for stand ing room near the point of vantage. The jury, composed of intelligent ap pearing middle-aged tradesmen, wa polled at 10:20 a. m., and a few minutes later Wilde and Taylor were escorted into court and placed in the prisoner's dock. Wilde was dressed as usual on. his j former appearance in court, but his face was drawn and haggard, his hair had been cut and his swaggering had en tirely disappeared. Mr. C. E Gill, on behalf of, the treas ury, opened the case for the prosecution, reciting the known history of the case, dwelling upon the association of Wilde with Taylor, and giving a graphic des cription of Taylor's darkened, perfumed rooms whera Wilde was in the habit of meeting his associates. Charles Parker was the first witness. His testimony was most revolting, but the judge held it to be necessary that the charges agaiust Wilde should ba explain ed in detail. E. J. DALLAS' MISSION. Has Gone to Washington to Secure Adoption of a Mail Sack. E. J. Dalla9, of the firm of Rossington, Smith Dallas, has gone to Washington to urge the postoffice department to adopt the new mail sack patented by O. M. Chesney of this city. Mr. Dallas was for many years em ployed in that department, and it is for that reason he has taken hold of the patent Mr. Dallas, W. A. L. Thompson and T. J. Kellam are to have half inter est in the patent if they secure its adop tion by the government The contract for mail sacks is let like all other contracts by the government.

It was not a second until the bid was raised to $32,000 by G. M. Shelly, the representative of H. B. Claflin Co. of New York. Then A. J. Townsen, of the firm of Sibley Carr, of Rochester, took a hand, and the bid was raised to $33,000.

Day and Shelly bid with the young man until Shelly made a bid, of $36,000 that was their limit. The young man promptly raised the bid to $36,925. Then there was a long wait and num erous consultations but the men from New York shook their heads and the stock was declared sold. The appraised value of the stock was $48,863; of the fixtures $3,008; a total of about $52,000. The invoice, however, showed a total value of about $65,000. It occasioned a great deal of surprise when the young man walked up to the auctioneer and announced that Crosby Bros, were the buyena. This announce ment was greeted with applause.

At 2:10 o'clock this afternoon 'Senator Wm. Rogers went on the v. it ness stand to testify in the famous investigation In which he is him self the principal On the stand he re tained the same coolness tie has mani fested during the entire trial. Under direction of his attorney. Sena tor Thacher, he told about his early life and his war experience in Illinois. He is 51 years old, he said, and had lived in Kansas since 1869. He told also of his membership in the G. A. R., and went, on examination, into the Blue Rapids G. A.

"Tell about the time it is said vou aud Joe Lowe and Mayor Hackney were in toxicated in a joint in Washington." "We did go into that place and drank three glasses of beer each. No one drank whisky." "Now about Witness Johnson drinking whisky at your house." ''Johnson came to the house to see me about a note. He aked me to get him a drink of whisky. I had some in the cel lar 1 always have; and he drank. I did not drink with him. He invited me, but 1 told him I did not often drink and I did not feel like it then. We then went to the bank too see about the note, and it was then that we bad the talk about the Salvation Army. I said it was doing a good deal of good aa much as any one of the churcnes. 1 tola aim during the talk that people had got be yond burning sheep on wood-piles to ap pease the wratu oi joa. feopie naa more respect for God now than that" "Do you remember about telling Mr. Hallowell about boodle whisky that car ried Independence township?" "No, sir; I don't remember a thing about it I do know that I used no whisky on that campaign." Rogers further denied that he had been drunk or even drank whisky at the Alliance meeting in Barnes. He seemed anxious to testify, and asked once, "Weil, do you want me to tell about the fishing incident?" Rogers told of one time that he drank beer in Atchison with John Seaton. He was then allowed to tell about the fishing incident, and said it was an "ordi nary fish." There was a keg aiong, he admitted, and there was considerable laughter about the incident, in which Rogers joined heartily. He said: "I waa never drunk." He denied that he had ever been found drunk in a barn, as former testimony showed. tVeneral Campos) la Havana. Havana, April 26.

I t STATE JOURNAI FRIDAY, EVENING, APRIL TSSoT 2 1 FRAI1T1CG1RLS. fire in a Montreal Factory Causes a Panic. Nine Hundred Employes Cared in the Building. LIFE DESPAIRED OF. Ladders Finally Brought the Imprisoned Persons Down. Montreal, Can., April 26. W. C McDonald's extensive tobacco factory ,oq Ontario street was partially des troyed by fire yesterday evening1. The loss will reach 8500,000, on which there is no insurance. There was not a fire -escape on the outside nor any appli ances on the inside of the building for the fighting of the fire. Even the windows were guarded by heavy iron, screens,' presumably to prevent theft. The fire started at 5 o'clock in the drying room, and for a while was smothered. Then suddenly the flames burst through and a most awful panic ensued. There were 900 employes in the building and more than half this number were women and girls. The shrieks of the women as they beat against the iron screen, praying the crowd to do something to save them, were heartrending. As the flames burst out three firemen were on the roof and for fully twenty minutes their lives were de spaired of, till finally ladders were found to bring them down. They were badly burned. The girls were nearly all on the fourth floor and frantic with fear. With much trouble one of the iron lattices was knocked off, when one of the girls jumped and was almost shattered to pieces when she reached the roof of an adjoining warehouse. In a similar manner the others followed to the number of thirty. The ambulances vvere kept busy car rying the women and girls to the hos pital, and some were driven in cabs to their homes. So far one is known to be dead, and several are believed to be in the ruins. So far as the firemen have been able to prosecute the rescue no bodies have yet been discovered. It was nearly midnight before the place could be entered safely, and owing to the darkness work cannot be done until daylight. The Associated press correspondent interviewed several who escaped wifh slight injuries. They say the scene on "the south floor was beyond descrip tion. When the first wild rush for the stairway occurred, the passageway was solidly packed, and many fainted and fell under the feet of the crowd. Then a mad rush was made to the windows. But the crowd forgot about the heavy screens which guarded that means of escape. Frantic women tore their hands beating against the cruel obstructions, but they were too strong for their feeble blows. Death seemed inevitable until Marie Gagnon found a window that yielded to the determined blows of those who could get their united efforts to bear. This window overlooked an extensive one-story warehouse. Without a moment's hesi tation the woman leaped Into the air and landed on the roof be low. Encouraged by her daring and impelled by the smoke and flames which were making rapid progress in that part of the building, other women followed her example, until about twenty maimed and bruised forms Were on the roof. "From injuries at the hospital at a late hour at night concerning the con dition of the girls injured by jumping from the window of the burning building, it was learned that but little hope is entertained for the recovery of at least five.

Dr. Gasman and Secretary Gresham Have an Interview. Washtsgto:, April 25. Nicaragua's last hope of -assistance from the United States in her controversy with Great Britain to prevent the seizure of Corin to vanished yesterday afternoon. Dr. Gusman, the Nicaraguan minister, who had been waiting with intense anxiety to see Secretary Gresham, was finally successful about 3 o'clock when the secretary came into the department from the white house, where he. had been in consultation with President Cleveland, presumably on the same suiect. The interview was very Short. In five minutes the minister emerged from the sec retary's office looking very de pressed. He refused to say a word as to what had taken place, but it can be stated the secretary gave him to understand verv clearly the United States would not interfere in the case as it stand. So there are now three courses open to Nicaragua, namely: To pay the indemnity, to per mit the occupation of Corinto or to fight. The next twelve hours must find the choice declared, for the British troops are to and at daybreak to-day at Corinto. As already stated the position tasen by the president in this matter is that the dispute is one entirely between Great Britain and Nicaragua, in which the United States has no call to inter fere, unless there should be committed acts injurious to American interests in Nicaragua, or there should be shown a disposition by Great Britain to acquire Nicaraguan territory. On each of these points a favorable assurance has" been had from Great Britain, and it is said all that can now be done is to watch the course of events. VOORHEES INTERESTED IX WALLER.

Secretary Morton Says Eight Thousand Head Are En Route to the Kansas City Market. Wishisotos, April 26. Secretary Morton says he has information that 8,000 head of cattle will leave Mexico for the Kansas City market within two days. He also says that advices indi cate that very soon cattle will com mence to come in by the thousands from that country. He has information in dicating that in the eastern part of the Indian territory cattle are in fairly good condition, but that in the western part and in Oklahoma cattle are scarce, owing to natural causes. This infor mation corresponds with that from many other sections of the country and he says that an increase in the price of cattle might be expected by reason of the scarcity, and he is reasonably certain that there is no combination of cattle raisers and large ranchmen. At the same time, however, he believes that many of the ranchmen and cattle owners are holding back their cattle from the market, believing that- the market will go higher. This he looks upon as an individual matter, and has no reason to interfere with it. Baseball Games. KATIOSAL LEAGUE. At Cincinnati Pittsburgh, 7; Cincinnati, 4.

Attempt to Make a Case Against Minister Gibson. HE WAS UNDISTURBED. The Preacher Was Cool and a Good Witness. Sas Fraxcisco, April-26. Rev. John George Gibson, pastor of the Emanuel church, was again on the witness stand yesterday in the preliminary examination of Theodore Durrant, charged with the murder Of Minnie Williams.

On the day preceding the finding of Blanche Lamont's body, her aunt, Mrs. Noble, received a paper containing the rings worn by the miss ing girL On the paper was written the names of George R. King and Prof. Schernstein, the apparent obj ect being to connect these men with the girl s disappearance. Experts declare the writing to be the disguised hand of Durrant. In court yesterday counsel for the defense requested Rev. Dr. Gibson to write the name of King and Schernstein. The minister did so, but asked twice how to spell Schern stein's name. Gibson was calm and collected on the stand and was a good witness. Nothing tangible against him was brought out by cross exami nation and his testimony was con cluded. A TERRIBLE TRAGEDT IX TEXAS.

Secor'g Invention IJkely to Canse as Ble a Commercial Revolution as the Introduction of Steam. New York, April 26. The accom panying portrait is that of John A. Secor, whom Edison is obliged to recognize as a rival, by virtue of his invention of a system of direct marine propulsion. The immense amount of fuel it is necessary for transatlantic steamers to carry occupies so much space that not enough passengers and merchandise in addition can be carried JOHJT A. SECOR. to make the vessels self-supporting. This trouble is to be obviated by the Secor system, which, stated In its simplest form, consists in the use of several inclosed cylinders, into which are introduced a mixture of air and atomized fuel, which being automatic ally ignited, is discharged directly against the external water at the stern of the vessel. The instantaneous ex plosion of the gases drives the vessel forward in the water just as a rocket is elevated in the air. The explosions, under perfect control, are produced with regularity and average 800 per minute. This invention, it is thought, will cause as great a commercial revo lution as that which followed the origi nal introduction of steam. Foreign Demand for American Product. Washixstox, April 6.

A Heartless Downs Mother De serts Her Child. Left by the Eoadside it is Gored to Death. OTHEIl STATE NEWS. Continental Hotel at Leaven worth Sold Under Mortgage. Atchison, April 26. Central Branch train men who came in from Downs tell a horrible story of a- mother deserting her babe on a public road and of its hav ing been gored to death by a cow a short time afterwards. The -woman's name is Connelly, and she was eloping with a Mr. Ruby. J. M. Connelly, the husband of the heartless mother, resided on a farm a mile or two from Downs. Ruby is a la borer, and he and his wife live in Downs. Before these two couple were married, it is said, Ruby and the present Mrs, Con nelly were sweethearts. '1 he tender feeling which Ruby had once felt tor Mrs. Connelly returned and was reciprocated by her. An elopemont was decided upon. Tuesday morning after Connelly had gone to work in his field Ruby appeared at his residence aud in a short time thereafter he and the farmer's wife were on their way to Cawker City, a few miles distant, where they intended to take the train for this city. Ttie couple decided to walk to Cawker City. The two-year-old baby was placed in its buggy aId the flight was beun. Mrs. Ruby noticed that her husband didn't go to work in the same direction as usual. She became suspicious, went on horseback to the Connelly house and found that Mrs. Connelly was not there. A neighbor living near by said she had gone with Ruby in the direction of Cawker City. Mrs. Ruby hunted up Connelly and related what she had discovered to him. Connelly took Mrs. Ruby's horse and started in pursuit of the elopinn couple. After Ruby and Mrs. Connelly had gone about a mile form the latter's home the baby buggy and itB occupant were placed, near a fence at the side of the road and left, the couple believing that they could make much better time if the child was left behind. 2s ear where the infant was left was a farm house, and it was supposed that its cries would at tract the attention of the people living there. Before this happened, how ever, a cow, grazing along the road, attacked the buggy, demolished it and killed the child. Xearly every bone in the body of the infant was crushed, one of its legs was torn nearly off, and it was otherwise mangled in a s.ckening manner. The noise the animal made in its mad ness brought a farmer from his field and the remains of the dead infant were car ried to the nearbr house. Not a half hour after his child met such a horrible fate Connelly passed the spot, but he knew nothing of ir. All he thought of was overtaking his truant wife, and he did not notice the fragments of the baby buggy scattered about where the life of his cuild had been crushed ou. lie came in sight of the runaway couple about a mile from Cawker City. W hen Ruby saw that he was to be over taken he deserted the woman and es caped by running through a wheat field, where he succeeded in hiding himself in a deep ravine. He has not been seen since. Connelly overtook his wife and she re turned home with him. When sha learned the fate that had befallen the child she so heartlessly deserted she gave way to hysterics, and had not com pletely recovered up to yesterday morn tng. Mrs. Connelly is the daughter of a prominent citizen residing near Downs, HAD A BAD RECORD. Rev. Mr. Prather l 4 Baen In Jail for Misconduct. Sauna, April 26. In the trial of Rev.

Two operations have been performed, the last one Wednesday, and today she appeared so much better that her ultimate recovery seems assured. Yesterday evening as Mrs. J. C Clark, her daughter and hired man were driving home from the city along the Grantville ro".d, the horses became frightened while passing the funeral procession returning from the interment of the late William Cotton, The two parties were trying to pass on the miser able road about two and one-half or three miles from town known as the Calhoun bluffs. M iss Clark immediate ly jumped from the lumber wagon and went to the horses' heads and the young man, in attempting to follow on the other side, received a terrible kick from one of the horses, which, luckily, did not do him much damage. At this .!iss Clark left the horses and tried to assist her mother to the ground. The horses, now free, whirled to the left up the bank upsetting the wagon, throwing Mrs. Clark to the ground, and the wheels passed over her. The "horses dashed back along the road toward that part of the pro cession which had passed, and several buggies were overturned in getting out of the way. C. L. Heywood drove up the bluff and upset. Undertaker Willets was in the lead and barely had time to get the heavy hearse turned to the side down the hill as the terrified animals rushed past him. After running about two miles back toward town they were caught without doing further damage. Mrs. Clark was placed in a carriage and taken to her home, a mile and a half this side of Grantville. When med ical aid arrived it was found that no bones were broken, thought, her knee and hip joints were badly sprained and the ligaments lacerated. She is 75 years of age and the shock and excitement quite prostrated her. H. Riordan, 1234 N. Kansas avenue, choice groceries and meats.

There were good buying orders that absorbed all offerings on a weak ODenine and as the market ad vanced shorts were forced in and there was a renewal of the excitement that characterized the market on Mon day. Exports were light, but cables were firm and higher, Berlin closing 3 marks higher from the open ing. The primary receipts for six days have been 300,000 larger than for the previous seven days. A prominent local operator who has been a conspicuous bear for two weeks is said to have covered his short line to day and taken the long side, which may IS STILL AT; HEND'ER STAND, CORNER SIXTH AND QUIHCY, FIXTURES FOR SALE. PUBLIC: u u y ii n account for for some of the strength. It is said that Pardridga is still short about nine million bushels, and brokers are calling him heavily for margins. Rosencranz, Ream, Linn, and the whole bear crowd are short a big line and are getting in deeper and deeper every day. It is stated bv good authority that P. D. Armour is under the wheat market and speculative bulls are standing on their heads with delight while the bears are trembling in their skins. Those who know Mr. Armour's power are predicting 70c wheat before next Saturday, and possibly a 10c advance in two or three days.

Chicago, April 26. For Kansas: Fair tonight and Saturday; variable winds. Congressman Dolliver has nerve. He made a gold speech to a silver crowd last evening'. Charlky Scott's election as president of the league was a very blue, black eye to the administration. Tiie Fifth Congressional district is in the unpleasant predicament of possessing a representative in congress who mis represents it. Congressman Dolliver' s consistency: A wise tariff law will bring prosperity, but you can't legislate prosperity into existence by financial laws. The people don't agree with yoa there Mr. Dolliver. In refusing the $10,000 salary offered by Mr. Kohlsaat, young Mr. Ecklea has Bhown a consideration for the govern ment truly wonderful. II a should have the gratitude of the people for not leav ing the country to its fate. Chicago is already showing evidence of progress since getting out of the con trol of the Democracy. A woman. Miss Jane Addatns, has been put in charge of the sanitary work in one of the wards of the city. Such a thing would not have happened in a century under Democratio management. Speaking of women's editions and other npvelties in journalism, it would be a striking innovation in some city offices we have in mind to get out an is sue edited and prepared entirely by newspaper men. Lawrence Gazette. This would stump a good many daily papers in Kansas and Kansas City. Congressman Dolliver's gold bug ideas found ready endorsement from Con gressman Calderhead, who got up after Mr. Dolliver sat down and shouted "Me, too." The single gold standard senti ment was also echoed by one of Mr. Calderhead's constituents, namely, Mr. "William H. Smith of Maryville, Mr. C's political manager. The Republican party can hardly af ford to go before the country next year on the vague promise that it will settle everything and settle it right as indicat ed by Senator Baker in his speech before the league convention. The members of the party, the men who do the voting, are likely to demand plans and specifi cations. Such indefiniteness may do for Democrats who blindly follow a party name but it will not satisfy intelligent thinking Republicans. The platform of 1S92 will not do next year. The Republican league missed a great opportunity yesterday in not taking a stronger stand for silver. The sentiment among the Republicans generally was remarkably strong, but the politicians were afraid. Too many of them wish to wait for the national convention. The states ought to give the national conven tion the cue. The plank as it is, how ever, did not suit the goldites. The one outspoken gold delegate of the conven tion. Bill Smith of Marshall, Calder head's manager, cast the only vote egajnst the silver resolution. jg.fs; i 'fir We Solicit an Inspection. This does not obligate You to Buy.

What ideas he expressed on gold and silver touched the Kansas Republicans a3 coldly as winter lingers in the lap of spring. A corporal's guard would number all those in Kansas who believe with Mr. Dolliver that America can do nothing for silver till other nations move. His proclama tion that if forced to the issue he would stand for gold as against silver does not, receive the endorsement of our people. Mr. Dolli ver seems to know all about the tariff, but if he is a thorough student of the silver question he is keeping the results of his researches in the densest obscurity of si lence. He talked 'sound money," "an honest dollar," "a stable currency," as if his money was the sound money, hisdol the sound dollar, his currency the stable currency, as seriously as the howling dervishes of Damascus believe that their religion is the only religion and that all other devotees will go straight to the bad place. We know that we wish a sound and stable currency whose soundness cannot be destroyed in an hour by a Wall Btreet raid on the gold in the treasury, when the government would cease to meet its obligations with gold and every dollar would be a rotten dollar. The Iowa congress man need not have come so far to tell us that. What we seek is information as to which is the honest dollar. Mr, Dolliver is very witty and bright. Perhaps the loftiest night of his humor ous fancy was the juxtaposition of ideas which closed a glowing peror ation relating the benefits which accrue from a protective tariff law and turning to the money question opened with the resounding declaration that prosperity does not come by law, but from industry, good seasons and good sense. It occurs to a common Kansas man that if a law on the tariff question does so much good some new laws on the money question might be worth a trial. Mr. Dolliver is all right in many respects, but as to sil ver he should pick his flint and try again. Line up, Tklr. D., with your admirers, friends and neighbors. Come over for a currency that can't be depreciated in an hour by a speculators' raid of the treasury. Bt a skillful use of words and a lot of murky theories Chief Justice Fuller may make it appear to people "learned in the law" that a tax on rents and interest is a direct tax and unconstitutional while a tax on income derived from labor is not, but other people will never understand it The more they look at it the more it ap pears to them that any tax paid by an in dividual, however levied, is a tax on everybody that does business with him. No man can pay taxes unless he gets the money from somebody with which to pay them. He might do it a little while from an accummulation but his funds would soon become exhausted. President Cleveland has become alarmed lest in the event of the calling of an international monetary conference an agreement favorable to silver might be reached and has declared that he will not appoint delegates to such a meeting. The president is giving himself needless trouble. No conference will assemble soon and it wouldn't do anything if it did. England is still in control of the finan cial affairs of the world, and will remain so until the United States restores silver to its coinage rights. England never surrenders an advantage until compelled to do so. Senator Baker in his speech before the Republican league convention yes terday demonstrated the fact that he is not in touch with the people of Kansas on the money question. He says he is willing to wait for an international con ference. How long is he willing to wait? We have been waiting many years now. The Washington correspondent of the Globe-Democrat is responsible for the statement that Mr. Cleveland has de clared that he will not appoint delegates to an international conference. This postpones the possibility of any action in that line two years. At the end of that time there is no assurance that we shall be any nearer a solution of the question than we are now, "I beliere in silver and I believe in gold. I do not believe in placing one above the other," said Senator Baker. Here is a sentiment that will find an echo in the hearts of nine tenths of the people of the state. This is what all the currency agitation is about We don't want gold placed above silver as has been done. The people of Kansas want silver restored to an equal ity with gold, and they don't want to wait forever for it They don't want to wait for other nations. They believe that remon etization of silver would force the other nations to either follow our lead or sur render their commerce to us. The state railroad commissioner, Jim Simpson, received a well merited rebuke from the league, when he attempted to cast several votes of an imaginary club in McPherson county. Chairman Shel don earned the respect of the assembly when he exposed the attempted fraud by a few pointed questions. The Republi can party masses are awfully tired of the Jim Simpson style of politics. KANSAS PARAGRAPHS. Burns has reached that. stage of physi cal decadence which necessitates the laying out of a cemetery. Clay Center has planted so many trees in the past that Arbor Day is now ob served by cutting some down. Ottawa Republican: Ever since the abandonment of sugar making Ft Scott has no longer been known as a fly town. The pupils of the Lyons schools had a fiel dday recently, and one of the girls got a pink ribbon for the most graceful skip. An Atchison school girl who taunted a dear friend by saying her hair was dyed had one of her eyes colored a nice fast black. A Lawrence girl who has just been married, is going to live on Paradise creek, but it is doubtful if that will save her. A Wichita stenographer who had just finished reading a popular story signed all her letters next day, "Very Trilby Yours." 1 An ice cream dealer at Ottawa is named Gresham. This is the only draw back so far as known which impedes his progress. A Minneapolis man has a brood of thirty incubator chickens, which are get ting to the size where people court invi tations to dinner. Two divorce suits are about to rend the peaceful society of Delpho3, and give housewives an excuse to run over and borrow a cup of sugar. Garden City already has eight candi dates who have announced themselves for county offices this year. Garden City is noted for its wind miils. Ottawa Republican: Twenty-five pa pers of Kansas are acknowledgedly edi ted by women. A good many more are really run by "old women." The organization of a tennis club of thirty at Wichita is an indication that duck trousers and shirt waists will be much worn there this season. The size of the spring bonnets the Ot tawa Republican thinks must have been designed with reference to the pros pective magnitude of the fruit crop. A Ft Scott man is bringing his bride to be clear from Sachsenhausen, Ger many. This shows that you have to go a long way before finding girls nicer than they have at Ft. Scott The line of succession to the two jus tices courts in Minneapolis has become so knotted and tangled that some plain common sense may be required to straighten out the law muddle. There are so many dogs and so many people who need money in Atchison that some persons make it a business to catch canines at night for the reward which is offered for those whose tax is unpaid. The probate court of Lyon county has is sued 74 licenses to marry in the last three months. The tremendous spring ham mock trade at Emporia indicates that these figures will be greatly surpassed this fall. AMONG KANSAS IRRIGATORS. IL C Price and brother of Syracuse write to the Kansas Farmer that they have an irrigation pump to which is at tached a nine horse power engine. With this they are able to throw 200,000 gal lons of water an hour at the expense of one gallon of gasoline. A farmer named Wilson near Atwood has an irrigation plant which is supplied from a creek which runs through his farm. The creek does not always have water in it but he makes good use of it when it has. It is more reliable than the rainfall. He can get out 300 gallons a minute. In Cora towaship. Smith county, the farmers have adopted a plan for preserv ing a supply of water for dry periods which might be followed profitably in j other parts of the state. A number of them have dug ponds which are fed by springs and in this way they have water in summer and ice in winter whether it rains or not It is estimated that an apple tree at five years old is worth as much as a cow. It doe3 not require near so much land for support and no more water. What more profitable investment then can the farm ers of Kansas make than to plant apple trees Where it is possible to obtain water. There is, of course, one advantage the cow possesses; she can be driven to the water. While irrigation has made crops a cer tainty, as far as moisture is concerned, it has not solved the chinch bug problem. Prof. Snow of the state university has discovered that his destroying fungus can be grown on vegetables as well as on the bugs themselves. So he has a great quan tity of it already prepared. And now, in stead of scattering diseased bugs in the field, it is proposed to poison water with the fungus and spray the place where the live bugs are gathered just as one sprays fruit trees. The experiments that have been tried thus far in this line are very encouraging. When the time comes farmers should try it It does not cost anything, and it may save a lot of money. MR. WILDER OVERWORKED. Keeps tba Accounts of the Vast System Straight at Expense of His Health. The friends of Edward Wilder, treas urer of the Santa Fe railroad, are be coming alarmed lest he will break down and be compelled to give up his work. It is well known that Mr. Wilder has not been well since his return from the east a month ago and he has been compelled to leave his office several times recently because he was not well enough to stay. It was given out that he is suffering with the grippe but it is the general opinion that Mr. Wilder is suffering from over work. Mr. Wilder is the hardest working of the Santa Fe officials. One of the em ployes in his office s.tid that he has been known to work the entire night when the work of the office had accumulated. He has no chief clerk and does the work which would fall to that official, himself. Nothing in the entire department es capes Mr. Wilder's attention. He super vises every detail. He not only signs all pay checks but there is not a document leaves his office until it is examined by him. All the correspondence of the pay master, cashier and other emyloyes of the department passes through his hands and is signed by him. It is a marvel how one man can look after the duties of treasurer of a great railroad system himself, but still Mr. Wilder has proved himself equal to the task even if he has done so at the ex pense of his health. The desk at which Mr. Wilder works is always piled high with papers, pay checks and correspondence, and an crd. nary individual would not believe that one man could ever get through them all. MR. APPLE YARD'S MISTAKE He Billed His Mill Machinery to the Woolen M11L It seems that William Appleyard, the proprietor of the Oakland woolen mill, made a mistake when he shipped his mill machinery from Maine which effec tually prevents him doing anything with the six car loads of woolen mill equip ment lying idle at Argentine. When he started the machinery from the east he did not bill it in his own name, but the bills of lading were made out to "The Mid-Continent Woolen Mill company"and the company now hold them and Mr. Appleyard can not now get his machinery from the cars if he is willing to pay the freight It is held in the name of the woolen mill company and the company must take it from the cars or authorize some one else to do so. This prevents Mr. Appleyard doing anything else with the machinery until his difference with the company is ad justed. Meanwhile the original freight bill of $8JJ on the machinery has nearly doubled as the storage charges are f 6 per day. It would only require a few thousand dollars to put the woolen mill in actual operation. Public spirited citizens ought to come forward and help the matter through now that it is so near fruition. Pros Farm In Doniphan. Kansas enterprise is limitless. The farmer who confines himself to raising wheat and corn may have a hard lot, but if he wants to get rich he should raise frogs. The Troy Chief says: '-Joe Zim merman is getting ready to market the products of his frog farm along the Mis souri river. The season has been so backward that he will not have over a couple of thousand saddles for his first shipment." Receiver for Canton Rank. Canton, Kan., April 26. A.

Burton of Abilene addressed the league convention at the afternoon ses sion after he had been called for, a doz en times or more. Mr. Burton said: "I would not go to the extent of saying as Mr. Funston did that we don't care what Germany, France and Russia do. "If there is to be a meeting of the na tions, this country should be represented and should be up at the table and have as potential a voice as any of the game sters." After talking about the history of the money question in the United States Mr. Burton said: "Our country ha3 so developed that the volume of money must be increased. The last declaration of the Republican party was in favor of usinp both g-old and silver. "The silver question must come up for discussion in the campaign of 1896, and it will bo championed by the Republican par:y along the line of unlimited coinage of silver along with that of gold." The afternoon speeches were limited to five minutes but there were calls for Mr. Burton to go on and he conlinued a few minutes over the allotted time by referring indirectly to his late campaign for United States senator. "Some of you in this hall today are office seekers and you have a right to ba I have no sympathy with the dema gogue who proclaims that the office seeks the man. For any one who is familiar with the political methods of this country who insists on that theory must necessarily be a dem agogue. I just have this to say that when the ofiice does seek the man it generally finds a chump." It was understood by all present that Mr. Burton referred thus unpleasantly to Senator Baker, who defeated him last winter, as the ofiice more nearly sought him than any other Kansas politician during late years. E LO PERS CAPTUR E D. Chief Wilkerson Finds a Couple of Lcx inston Runaways in Topeka. Chief Wilkerson captured Otto Baurle and Amelia Bauile, an eloping couple from Lexington, Mo., last evening. Baurle is the girl's uncle. He is 23 years old and she is 16. The girl is decidedly pretty and neatly dressed. The young man is not altogether prepossessing. The elopers were found at a hotel in North TopeKa, They claim to have been married, but they have no certificate to show for it. The officers received word several days ago that the young elopers were headed in this direction, and a sharp lookout has been kept for them. From the tone of tha letters Chief Wilkerson has received Otto Baurle is wanted at Lexington very badly. Today the prisoners were transferred from the city prison to the county jail. The sheriff at Lexington telegraphed as soon as he waa notified that he would come right on. He is expected to arrive late this afternoon.

Big Bargains in Stiff and Soft ONLY 6 PEli CENT. PASSED. I That is the Proportion of Bills in Con gresfl to He come Lavs, Washington, April 26. According to figures prepared by Mrs. B. S. Piatt, en rolling clerls of the senate, 720 bills and joint resolutions become laws during the third session of the Fifty-third congress. Of these 215 were in the senate and 505 house bills and resolutions. During the entire congress 12,223 measures were introduced in the two houses, of which 2,952 originated in the senate and9,271 in the house. The senate passed 527 of its own bills, but only 239 of these received favorable action in the house, while of the 711 bills which passed the house 569 also passed the senate. The president vetoed or failed to sign twenty-four of the senate biils sent to him, while fifty-four house bills met the same fate at the hands of the executive. It appears from this statement that less than 6 per cent of the bills introduced during the congress became laws. Arbitration For 91 Inins Tronblfg. PoiiERor, O., April 26.

The premier also declared that all parliamentary action must be postponed until it is possible to form a new minis try, as circumstances make it impossible for the present ministry to continue in ofiice. BEFORE THE EMPEROR. The Treaty of Peace is Being Considered by China. London, April 26. A Pekin dispatch to the London Times says that Mr. John W. Foster, the American adviser of Chinese peace envoys and the secretary of Li Hung Chang have arrived there and that the treaty of peace between China and Japan is now before the em peror and his ministers. The Chinese foreign ofiice yesterday consulted with the different foreign legations. Many of the censors have presented memorials against the treaty. Prince Kung president of the foreign office and of the council cf ministers has obtained seven days more sick leave. Other officials hesitate to recommend the ratification of the treaty.

The committee appointed by the Irish independent par liamentary party to visit Mrs. Delia Par nell, the aged mother of the distinguish ed Irish leader, Charles Stewart Parnell, went to Bordentown, N. J., last night The committee consisted of Edward O'Flaharty, John Brennan, Hugh J. Cur tin and Stephen McFarland. The object of the deputation was to as certain Mrs. Parnell's condition, and if necessary to supply assist ance, pecuniary or otherwise. The committee was pleased to find the mother of the dead Irish chief, at tended by her step-brother, Mr. Stewart, son of Admiral Stewart, Mr. Tudor, a re lative of Mrs. Parnell's from Boston, and Mrs. Knaud of New York. The deputation was cordially received and thanked by Mr. Stewart and Mr. Tudor. Mra Knaud, who has remained an old time friend of Mrs. Parnell, is in constant attendance at the bedside of the aged lady since she was removed to her room after the murderous attack made upon her. It was said that the theory that Mrs. Parnell had been assaulted by some tramp whose motive was robbery has been exploded. Mrs. Parnell, Mrs. Knaud said, had a dog with her which was a faithful compan ion. When its mistress was attacked the dumb animal never barked. This is taken as an indication that the person who attacked Mrs. Parnell was somebody whom the dog recognized. On the invitation of Mr3. Parnell's rel atives, Mr. O'Flaherty visited the sick chamber and found Mrs. Parnell con scious. She however, did not recognize any one except Mrs. Knaud, and an old and faithful retainer of the household named Slevin. Slevin was a fellow pris oner of Charles St6wart Parnell's in Kilmainham jail, as suspects in 1331-82. The report that Mrs. Parnell's jewel ry had been stolen was contra dicted and the committee was shown several valuable heirlooms of the Parnell and Stewart families. The committee were also informed that John Howard Parnell, Mrs. Parnell's only sur viving son, now staying at Avondale, county Wicklow, Ireland, is kept daily informed'of the condition of his mother. Harry G. Bannon and others repre senting the independent parliamentary pany will visit Mrs. Parnell on Sunday next Mrs. Knaud; whose energies have been severely tried, will be relieved from attendance at once by a trained nurse who has been summoned from Philadel phia. Mrs. Parnell Bests Easy. Bordentown, N. J., April 23. Dr. Phipps states that Mrs. Parnell is rest ing easy this morning and in much the same condition that she was last night She has taken some nourishment and asked for a drink of water thi3 morning.

The Republican League After an Uproariou3 Session MIES THE IOLA STATE SENATOR At the Head or Its Organization Stories anil Incidents of the After noon and Evening. For about two hours yesterday after noon at the meeting of the State Repub lican league things were pretty badly mixed. It would have taken a man with a compass, a thorough knowledge of geometry and a mighty level head to have discovered his own name for a time and everybody was helpless. Ordi narily Air. Sheldon is a very good pre siding officer and he was as good a one i yesterday as any man could have been. I He kept his temper, which is most sur prising, and has nobody's blood on his hands today. It all began with the election of offi rcers. The committee on order of busi iness had resolved to vote by districts, J.but some man with a fiendish thirst for misery moved that the vote be taken by i delegations and the vote began. Charley Scott and Harry Bone had each been nominated for president. Everything ran smoothly enough till the list was completed, but when the pend was announced at least fifty men I were on their feet in an instant demand ing recognition. It was worse than an up ,roar, and Chairman Sheldon was rather taken aback. It was a question of who j could yell the loudest, and the contest was entered into with a will. Nobody remembers exactly who was recognized fir3t, others were recognized with 8uch i rapidity. Newspaper men, who were used to keeping track of all sorts of out- bursts, simply laid down their hands and i waited for the smoke to clear away. At least fifteen different delegations i claimed to have lost their votes. Some of them were not present when the vote was called, some of them had just paid 1 their dollar, and one or two wanted to change the votes they had already cast. And almost everybody in the hall wanted to talk. Here is one small incident: A little west of the center of the room stood an old gray bearded man trying to get re cognition. He was from Jefferson coun ty, he said, when he did get a chance, and represented a delegation that had not been called, though he had paid the dollar required. A motion had just been carried to the effect that no new delega tions should be admitted, and the chair man ruled that the case could not be at tended to at that late time, and the vote could not be admitted. All this was after the old man had lost most of his voice and a good deal of his patience in the endeavor of an hour to get the chair's attention. All this time he had been on his feet. He had been sent to cast those four votes, however, and he meant to do it. Finally the chair consented to submit the admission of the Jefferson county man's votes to the house, and they were rejected. Bernard Kelly was near and this aroused him. After a time he suc ceeded in getting a hearing, and de SUITS TO ORDER. Kansas Ave.' manded fair play for the Jefferson county brother. For a time the chair would hear nothing, but pounded with the gavel and the convention yelled. Still Mr. Kelly kept talking. It took several minutes to find out that he meant busi ness, and then he was allowed to state the case and move to reconsider. The old man held aloft his four receipts for the dollar and his written credentials, and the motion was submitted to reconsider. It carried and the four votes from Jefferson county were added to the list The old man was happy and turned around to thank Mr. Kelly, but he was gone. At another time Jim Simpson of lie Pherson declared that four votes from his county had not been counted, but when the chairman pinned him down, he could not tell the name of a solitary member of the delegation, and he was howled down. After this sort of thing had lasted at least two hours, Mr. Bone made an at tempt to withdraw from the race in "the interest of harmony and Republicanism" He was not allowed to, however, and Mr. Scott felt called upon to make a little speech in which he regretted that Mr. Bone had anticipated him so thor oughly and begged that Mr. Bone be not withdrawn and that the vote should go on. By this time the secretary had the records of eleven other delegations who had not yet voted and after peace had been restored they were called and the vote closed. The count stood: Scott, 622; Bone 482, and Mr. Scott was declared elected presi dent of the league. It was now 6:30 o'clock and a motion was made to have the secretary cast the vote of the convention for Harry Bone for vice president and it carried with a hurrah. There was no opposition to Charley Gault for another term as secretary and he was elected unanimously. Grant Hornaday of Fort Scott was made treas urer in the same manner, and the con vention adjourned till after supper. COMES OUT FOR SILVER. The League's Resolutions Demand the Use of All American Silver as Moneys The Republican league convention adopted its resolutions without a fight, although the committee on rejolutious was in session all afternoon trying to set tle the silver question, or at least the position the Republican league should take on that question. At the opening of the evening session Chairman Ed Greer of the committee on resolutions read the report of the com mittee, which was adopted without de bate and with only one dissenting vote. One delegate from Congressman Cal derhead's district shouted a lusty "No," and the people laughed. The following are the resolutions as adopted: "The Republican State League of Kan sas, in eighth annual convention assem bled, congratulates the state upon the splendid victory which restored this com monwealth to the control of the party which has always conducted its affairs with wisdom, prudence and honesty and redeemed it from the unpatriotic princi ples and the vicious and dishonest prac tice of Populism. "The history of the past two years, W showing a record of financial disaster and businsss depression almost without a parallel in the experience of our country, has demonstrated beyond the need of any argument the utter incompetency of the Democratic party to administer "the affairs of the nation. "We denounce and condemn the wicked tariff tinkering which lost us the advantages v, hich a Republican policy had gained for us in the markets of the world and which demoralized our man ufacturing industry and robbed our laborers of millions of dollars in wages, thereby restricting the markets of our farmers and directly depressing the prices of farm products. "We condemn the weak and vacillating foreign policy which has discredited us in the eyes of other nations, has sacri ficed our domestic interests and has wounded our national pride. "We condem the ungenerous, unjust and hostile treatment of the veteran de fenders of the union. Aud above all wu condemn the vicious and un-American financial policy which is in direct opposition to the deliberate judgement of the American people, and which has brought upon us individual distress and national disaster. "It is not the province of the league to formulate platforms or outline policies and we do not claim any authority to speak for the Republicans of Kansas, but as members of the rank and file of the party we do not hesitate to announce it as our conviction that the restoration of the Republican party to power will bring with it a return to a tariff policy which will bring back the commercial prosperi ty which the wise measures of the Fifty nrst congress inaugurated; that it will bring a return to a patriotic and vigorous foreign policy which will make our flag admired and respected in every port of the globe; that it will guarantee in the future, as it always has in the past, the most ample justice to the brave men who offered their lives that the Union might be preserved; and that it will bring back a monetary policy and a coinage system which will immediately add to our currency the product of our American mines and restore silver to its old place as one of the money metals, thus placing the finances of our country upon a basis which will bring confidence and prosperity to all our people. "We condemn in the most unsparing terms the recent order of Secretalfy Mor ton to throw open the American markets to the diseased and inferior cattle of Mexico, thus placing in jeopardy the vital interests of the American farmer. "We extend our warmest greeting to the Kansas Woman's Republican asso ciation, now assembled in convention in the city, and express our sincere value of their enthusiastic and zealous assist ance in carrying forward the work of the Republican party.

Some of the members of the Repub Itcan League convention tell, with a great deal of good-natured raillery, a story on C M. Sheldon, who has just retired as president of that organization. It places Mr. Sheldon, who is considerable of a joker himself, in a position to be smiled at, and those of his acquaintances who had taken his chaff were glad of the op portunity to turn the laugh back. The arrangements for the league con vention were made for the most part by members of the executive committee who lived in Topeka, for the reason that it was well nigh impossible to get the whole committee together, and a number of them were in this city as well as the secretary. The plans were mostly made therefore, and Mr. Sheldon informed of them afterward. When he heard that John P. Dolliver had been chosen to address the league he wrote in hurriedly and excitedly: "Who in thun der is Dolliver? We want some man who 'is known." The leaguers here were a little sur prised that Mr. Sheldon's political infor mation was so circumscribed, and won dered where he had been for the last ten years, but a3 one of the objects of the league is the dissemination of facts about Republicanism aud political history in general, they kindly set themselves to the tasK of giving Mr. aneiaoa iignu Some men were found who were more fortunate than the league president, and did know who Mr. Dolliver was. They were willing to share this knowledge with the less fortunate. Congressman Charles Curtis imme diately wrote to Mr. Sheldon: "Outside or Keed, CocKran ana possi- blv one or two others, he attracted more attention than aay other member of con gress." J. U. SionecKer neara air. uomver in New York a vear or two ago, when he spoke from the same platform with Mc kinley, UiscocK ana otners, ana ne as sured Mr. Sheldon that 'Dolliver made the best speech delivered on that occa sion." Lieutenant Governor Troutman didn't want Mr. SheJ ion to remain in the dark a moment more than absolutely neces sary' and he telegraphed him: "Dolliver is one ot tne most attractive orators in the nation and the league is very fortunate in inducing him to ad dress it" This was quite enough to satisfy Mr. Sheldon that the league was not making an irreparable blunder so he acquiesced in the choice of Mr. Dolliver, though it is said he didn't enjoy his speech just as thoroughly as he might have if his knowledge or the Iowa congressman s identity had been secured when other people acquired their's. CONGRESSMAN CURTIS' SPEECH. Talk Conservatively on the Silver Ques tion Last Night. Congressman Charles Curtis was warmly applauded when he talked of silver, at the league convention last night. Mr. Curtis said that whatever the European nations do the Republican party in lo'Jb must take a stana tor silver. He said: "The Republicans of Kansas have opened the fight and it will not cease uuiu iiiw puna uiuso iu iiuvouiuur, xoau. There are in my mind three things wtiich I consider necessary to the return of prosperity in this country. First, we must return to the banner system of pro tection. Second, we must establish the use of two kinds of money, gold and silver and paper money redeem able' in gold and silver, and third we must adopt a policy which will protect American laboring men by the restriction of foreign immigration. In addition to this we must institute a vigorous foreign policy and look well after the old soldiers, the defenders of this nation, who are now the victims of the secretary of the interior. "J CALDERHEAD ECHOED IT. Dolliver Made a "Sound" Money Speech and Calderhead Chimed In. At the evening session of the league the large hall was crowded after Mar shall's band had played two selections and the resolutions had been adopted. Presi dent Charles F. Scott introduced the speaker of the evening Congressman J. P. Dolliver of Iowa who for almost two hours talked Republicanism. Mr. Dolliver's speech was highly en tertaining. His views as expressed in his interview published in this paper yesterday were the outlineof his speech. He did not appear to relish the idea of talking "sound money" to a silver au dience, as he knew the one he was ad dressing to be, and he accordingly abused the flat money makers, as there were none of them supposed to be pres ent. When Mr. Dolliver had concluded Con gressman Calderhead was called for and spoke for a few moments. Mr. Calder head said he endorsed every word and sentiment uttered by Mr. Dolliver in his speech. Inspecting Santa Fe Hospitals. Dr. Fay, Engineer Wm. Hamilton and Conductor Ed, Ives of Topeka, v. com mittee from the board of trustees of the Santa Fe Hospital association, are mak ing their annual tour of the line looking over the hospitals and meeting with the local boards.

CEREMONY AT GRACE CATHEDRAL General STotes or Society Personal Items or Interest About Topeka People and Visitors in Town. The wedding ceremony which sol emnized the marriage of Miss Julia Street of Phoenix, Ariz., and Mr. Joseph C Wickham of Philadelphia was cele brated at noon Wednesday in Grace cathedral. The chancel of the pretty little church was in white hangings and the altar massed with lilacs. As the organ sounded the wedding march from Mendelssohn, Mr. Wickham and his best man Mr. Walter Noble entered the chancel from the vestry and waited the approach of the bride and her attendants. First came little Mary and Dorothy Gleed cousins of the bride in white china silk Empire gowns and large white hats carrying flowers. Next came Miss Dorothy Sturgia the maid of honor at tired most .becomingly in a costume of green and black duchesse satin trimmed in green passementerie, and carrying white bride's roses. The bride followed leaning on the arm of her uncle, Mr. C. J. Brown, who gave her away at the altar. At the chancel steps the pretty little flower girls separ ated aud stood one on eacn side of the chaccel steps while the bride and other attendants passed on to the altar, then they followed and took their places. Dean Millspaugh pronounced the full ring service of the Episcopal church aft er which the young couple knelt and re ceived his blessing. As the bridal party left the church Lohengrin a wedding march sounded. Tne oride wore a handsome blue and tan mixed cloth, tailor made traveling suit with hat and gloves to match; and carried a large graceful cluster of lilies of the vallays with here aud there a spray of orange blossoms sent by the bride's mother from her home at Phoenix. She wore a beautiful gold wreath pin set with twenty-one diamonds, eighteen emeralds and twelve pearls, the gift of the groom Miss Street's gift to her maid of hono? was a pretty stick pin. Although no invitations had been is sued to the wedding about seventy-five friends assembled at the church to attest their affection and admiration for this one ol Topeka' s most wiuuing society girls, popular not alone because of the prominence of the family of her aunt, whom she has visited for a year past, but for her own sweetness of manner and kindness of heart. At the home of the bride's aunt, Mrs. C. Brown, a wedding breakfast was served to the bridal party, immediate relatives and Dean and Mrs. Millspaugh. The mantels were banked with lilacs, which weie also tastefully scattered throughout the rooms of the handsome house. The dining room table was in La France roses, and a pyramid of these flowers and ferns formed a pretty center piece. At three o'clock Mr. and Mrs. Wick ham left for the east They will visit the bride's cousin, Miss Florence Greer for a few days in Detroit. Thence thoy will go to Canada, crossing back to Niagara; thence to Albany, from there by boat down the Hudson to JNew York city. From there to Philadelphia, where they will remain at a hotel until their handsome new home at Devon, a Philadelphia suburb, is furnished. Miss Street's trousseau was particularly ele gant and beautiful. Jerry Klack'i Dinner Party.

Hall of Albuquerque, N. M., son of Mr. and Mrs. John L. Hall, of Springfield, Mo., were united in mar riage, the father of the bride officiat ing.

The menu was served in courses on small silver trays and consisted of straw berries, broiled chicken, sweetbread pat ties, champagne, beaten biscuit, tomato salad, heart shaped sandwiches tied with American beauty ribbon, coffee, cake and ices. The latter were a pretty idea,each guest being served with three roses in ice, a marechal neil, a bride's rose and an American beauty.

A Large Dwelling on West Tenth Street Nearly Destroyed. When the fire departmeut reached We: t Tenth street last evening .it 3:30 o'clock it found the large frame dwelling at 113 on that street in immediate danger of de struction by fire. The entire south side and roof were ablaze and people were busy carrying the furniture from the front rooms. It required bard work to 6ave the building as it was as dry as tinder aud burned like a brush heap The lire spread to the frame dwellings on either side, but did little damage to those houses. The large building which was badly damaged was occupied by J. F. Buzzeil, a street car conductor, and the upper rooms were occupied by "roomers." The damage to this building, which was owned by T. B. Thompson, will probably be $1,0U0. The fire started in the kitchen and that room was all on fire before it was dis covered. TO PAINT THE BRIDGE. The Next Thin? to be Done With the Tumble Down Affair.

Friday, April 26 The Musical Event of the Year the Calhoun Opera Co. 45 PEOPLE 45 Presenting for the first time in this city Czibulka's beautiful romantic comic opera. AMORITA- Notable Array of Principals. Handsome Ciiorus. Perfect Ensemble. Competent Orchestra. Company's own scenic, calcium and electrical efiects. Prices: $1,75, 50 and 25 cents. Had a Terrible Record. A French journal relates an incident in which a haughty functionary re ceived what in the vernacular of our own country would be a "neat set down." Thia haughty person was a member of the chamber of deputies, and much given to long speeches. One day he found another deputy conversing in the lobby with a man whose face seemed familiar to him, but whom he could not Temember. He fancied the man must be an intruding journalist. "Pardon me," he said to the other man, "but whom have we here?" "Allow me to introduce to you," an swered the deputy, "the man who has written more falsehoods and stupidities than any other man living." "Indeed!" said the great man. "Then my supposition was correct that he is a journalist?" "Not at all he is the official reporter of the chamber." An Influential Person. On one occasion, when the late Mr. W. H. Smith, controller of the English news-stands, was first lord of the ad miralty, some big trials were to be brought off at one of the dockyards, and a special train was run from Lon don for the. naval experts. At one of the intermediate stations, one of the book-stall lads jumped on the steps of a first-class carriage and offered his pa pers. A crusty officer ordered him off, and, with some indignation asked him how he dared to annoy passengers. "Look here," said the boy, after a pause, "you,'d better be civil, or 111 get the guv'nor to dock your leavel" 3 inrral Water. The finest in the west. Come and try it. J. W. Phillips, 612 "W.

Judging from what the papers say of the Calhoun Opera company in"Amorita" it will be very entertaining. Not only the Denver papers speak well of it but the Wichita Eagle says Wichita was well pleased with it. It is advertised as a large company with competent princi pals and a strong chorus. It is also promised that all the original New York costumes, lights, scenery and efleots will be used. "Amorita" ia a oomio opera of high order it ia said and is full of bright lines and catchy airs. The advance sale is very encouraging. John Philip Sousa is the man who wrote the three most popular band marches just now "Washington Post," "High School Cadets" and "Gladiator." Mr. Sousa and his big band will be in Topeka and give a concert at the Grand on the evening of May 10th. The Crawford Brothers' tent show, "Joshua Whitcomb," is receiving new ad ditions daily. A young woman arrived from Boston yesterday, and a second aeronant will arrive today, so if one gets killed the show can go right on. A', good band has been selected and is prac ticing daily. It will give a farmers band parade at noon on the day of the first performance, next Wednesday evening, May 1st. The tent will be pitched on Quincy street near Sixth. TALLAGE COURT MARTIAL. He U Fined $15 by His IteSlment, the New York Thirteenth. New York, April 26. Dr. Talmage has got into trouble and has been lined $15. To be Bure the fine has been re mitted and everybody concerned has hiid a peck of fun over it, but the big preach er is down on the record as having been court-martialed just the same. This was the way of it: Dr. Talmage is chaplain of the Thirteenth regiment. Last May he took atrip around the worid and never asked leave of absence. Of course the boys at the armory knew well enough why he never answered to roli call, but they let things take their uaual course, and the result was a court-martial in due form and a $15 fine, of which the chaplain was duly notified. There upon he chuckled, called on Colonod McLeer, in command, and got the tine re mitted, CHICAGO RENTS LO W ER. Tenants to Fill the liig Office Ituildinga Il&rd to tiret. Chicago, April 26. Real estate men have reduced oifice rents to retaiu ten ants. Even then some of the older office buildings are likely to have more vacant offices than in past years. One firm of real estate ageuts says: "There is notmuch moving, tnough there are more vacancies and rents are lower. Owners of big buildings are cutting throats to get tenants, fatores are uot holding their own except a few cboiee corners aud a few blocks in State street. In Clark street from Lake to Van Suren, there are any number of stores to teut For the same amount of space a tenant can get better terms than last year." S W EDISli STATE LE A G LT E. The Swedish Republican Tike Prelimi nary Steps to Form a State Organization. A uumber of Swedish American dele gates who attended the Republican State League meetini?, took preliminary steps for the organization of a Swedish Amer ican Republican state league. A, V. Lindell of Topeka was elected temporary president, and Prof. Frank Nelson of Bethany college and editor of the Lindsborg News, temporary secre tary. A committee on permanent organiza tion was ppointed, consisting of Gust. Johnson of Osage City, V. J. Stromquist of Fremont, Frank A. Johnson of Mc pherson, M. North of Topeka, and Prof. Nelson of Lindsborg. A committee on constitution, con sisting of A. V. Lindell, F. O. Johnson and Prof. Nelson, was also named. A meeting to effect a permanent or ganization will be held at Lindsborg May 29, and all Swedish American Republican clubs of the state will be entitled to send delegates. The purpose of the league is to edu cate the Swedish Americans in Repub licanism and Americanism, and it is said it will be intensely American in princi ples and spirit HIGH MEAT BROKE HIM. One Topeka Butcher Quits Business Be cause Prices Cro too Hih. The high price of meat has driven one Topeka butcher out of business and the meat market at lil East Seventh street, owned by William Leitzlow, ia closed. The owner says that he now has to pay seven cents for meat where he used to only pay five, and the necessary advance he has made in the retail price has driven away much of his trade who now do without meat entirely. The price of beef "on the block," ag the butcher says, has fallen, but the price of steak to the consumer is still high. Nice gilt wall paper 5 and 6 cents per roll at Beckstrom's, 518 Jackson.

THE STATE HAS SPENT $3,000 for the Investigation or the Peniten tiary Other State House 3iews. It has been figured out that the invest igation" of W arden S. W. Chase of the etate penitentiary which has just been concluded has cost the state of Kansas a little less than 3,000 the exact figures being $2,963.80. The pay roll which includes the mile age and per diem of the members of the investigation committee, the sergeant-at-arms, his assistant and the clerk amounts to $1,43450. The mileage and per diem of wit nesses for the state amounted to $450 and for the defense $517.30. Incidental expenses, including rent of room for the committee at Lansing, $15. Estimated cost of transcribing the stenographer's notes of the evidence, $500. It is said that the expenses of this in vestigation is less than any of the other investigations ordered by Governor Mor rill, and it is also said to be the cheapest legislative investigation Kansas ever had. No arrangements have yet been made to pay this expense, and it is possible it will nave to stand until the next legisla ture makes an appropriation. STATE INSUBANCK REPORT.

A TTlnflald Papur Calls Their Nicely Furnished Open Saloons "Joints." Says the Winfield Free Press: Last week we gently intimated that County Attorney Fink was allowing joints to run in Arkansas City.
