POLITICAL GOSSIP if"'"v Old Soldl Old Soldier Tote Now Question Controversy. 3bth Le'and and Stubbs Claim It. LONG AT EMPORIA. Senator Will Open Hia Cam paign There. He Is Expected in Topeka Wed nesday. It was announced from Senator Long's headquarters today that Sena tor Long will return to Topeka on Thursday or Friday, and on Wednes day evening, June 10, will open up his speaking campaign by an address at the Whitley opera house In Em poria. In this address. Senator Long will prevent his answers to all the charges which have been made against him by his opponent, J. L. Bristow and by William Allen White, editor of the Emporia Gazette, who is the literary man of the Bristow campaign. To go right to Emopria, the head quarters of the anti-Long agitation, to make his reply to the charges against him, is an act of considerable cour age on Senator Long's part. He can't be accused of trying to dodge the is sue which Mr. White has presented. Senator Long's secretary, Ralph Faxon, stated this morning that there would be no effort to make a sensational affair out of the Emporia meeting. "There won't be any hair pulling or vituperation," said Mr. Faxon. "Senator Long has promised to come before the people of Kansas and make a full, frank and unequivo cal defense of his record In congress. Ho will do this at Emporia. He will avoid none of the issues which have been presented, and he is confident -that his replies will satisfy the people of Kansas." It la not likely that Senator Long will make any speeches In Kansas ex cept his Emporia speech, until after the National Republican convention. He may spend a day or two at Medi cine Lodge before he goes to Empor ia, after which he will probably be in Topeka until the end of the week, when he will start for Chicago. If Senator Long Is selected to second the nomination of Taft for the presi dency, he will have to put in a few days getting his speech ready. Senator Long is attending the Taft conference in Washington today. Senator Long's friends are very anxious that he should get u Into, the campaign and begin to counteract the-work which -has been done by Mr. Bristow and by "Bin" White's artistic newspaper articles. Scores of requests for speeches are on file at the Long headquarters, and as soon as Mr. Long returns from Chicago, he will work night and day in the campaign. Sen ator Long has of course spoken In ev ery county in the state at various times, but there is need now that he should revisit as many counties as pos sible, and straighten out his political fences. Probably the first section of the state to receive visits from Senator Long will be the Sixth and Seventh districts. These districts have the big voting strength in the senatorial fight, in pro portion to their population, and it is In these counties that Senator Long has always been very strong. Reports which have been coming- in indicate that there Is a good deal of dissatis faction in some of the western coun ties. The Bristow people are claiming much support in Senator Long's own district, the Seventh. Whether or not Senator Long uses his Emporia speech replying to the charges made against his record as a general campaign speech depends upon whether there seems to be need for that sort of a speech. It Is hard to tell at present whether the attacks made have "soaked In" much. If people want Long to explain his record, and defend himself from attacks, he feels confident that he can do a good Job. Meantime the Long headquarters are making n energetic letter writing campaign for Mr. Long, and are send- ing out thousands of pamphlets giving Senator Long s congressional recora. The circulation of Senator Long's peti tions for nomination is also being ener getically' pushed. Senator Long will find ..that the ground work tor nis speech-making campaign has been well built by his committee of able political lieutenants. Who will get the majority of the old soldier vote of Kansas, Stubbs or Le land? Mr. Leland says that he will get practicaly the solid support of the old soldiers, with the exception of Demo crats and a few crank Republicans. W. A. Morgan, who was elected de partment commander of the Kansas G A. R., and was claimed by a Stubbs paper as a "Stubbs candidate," says that Leland will have eight out of ten old soldiers of the state. Mr. Stubbs announces that he finds post after post where the old soldiers are practically all for him. A good many old soldiers are writing pieces for the newspapers Inquiring why Leland did not support St. John and A. W. Smith, and H. B. Miller, and F. D. Coburn, and Case Broderlck, and John Seaton, and Dick Blue, and other old soldiers when they were run ning for office. So It seems that there Is considerable difference of opinion among the pollt cally Inclined veterans over how the old soldier vote will go. The country weeklies of the' state, which generally reflect the sentiment of their communities pretty closely, are also much divided In their opinions. The Belleville Telescope, one of the leading papers in the Fifth district, says: 'Joe' Woollen, postmaster at Man kato for the past twelve years, and an ex-soldier, was In the city last week and said the old soldiers at Mankato were lining up to a man for Your Uncle Cyrus Leland for governor." Commenting on this statement, the Jewell City Republican says: Cyrus Leland will not get the vote of one old soldier In Jewell City. For a, man who set out to capture the sol dier vote as a starter, Uncle Cy has made about the biggest nzzle on rec 1 r v v j yjjiivi xul c ..hot tia rM aoiriiers sav UI 11. DCC 1 ..w this paper.

The statement the old soldiers follows: .TuA ..nfAt.atcnAH old soldiers as of of Jewell City, Kan., feel that the above Item may give outside parties a wrong impression.

The Mauretania was 270 miles east of Sandy Hook lightship at 8 o'clock a. m. today, ac cording to a wireless report received at Siaconset, Mass., today. This shows that since 6 a. m. yesterday the Maure tania had'averaged 28 miles an hour. If she keeps at that rate of speed she will reach Sandy Hook lightship at 6 p. m. and break the record for the long course now held by the Lusl tania. Passes Nantucket Light. Newport, R. I., June 1. The Maure tania rounded the Nantucket lightship at 12:40, going at an estimated speed of between 25 and 26 knots an hour. The weather was fine. Wireless reports received here from the Nantucket lightship stated that the big liner passed within half a mile of the lightship. The passengers crowd ed to the side of the steamer nearest the lightship and waved their hands and handkerchiefs and sang "The Star Spangled Banner." Salutes of flags and whistles were exchanged between the steamer and the lightship. HE SAT ON THE PORCH. Mr. Cleveland Is Seen Reading at His Home. Princeton. N. J.. June 1. Former President Grover Cleveland, who re turned to his home here last night from Lakewood, N. J., where he had gone about two months ago, arose early today and after a hearty break fast sat reading on the veranda of his residence. Mrs. Cleveland said: "We are glad to get back home again. Mr. Cleve land Is very well, thougn nut entirely recovered. Yet he continues to get along nicely. We have made no plans for the future as yet, but we expect to stay at Princeton some time." The Cleveland home was decorated within with many flowers In honor or the home coming of Mr. Cleveland. It is probable that the former president will drive In Princeton this afternoon.

FIVE TIMES MORE Personal Property Assessments Are Greatly Increased. Business Firms-'Must Pay on Beat Valuation. FIGURES GIVEN OUT. Gas Company Raise Is Over Ten Times Last Year. Township Reports, Also Show Large Advance on Farm Land. While none of the personal property assessments have been totaled as yet and the assessor's books are now In the hands of the county clerk and com missioners for reference before the board of equalization, yet the follow ing assessments taken from the books of the largest firms and corporations in Topeka will give a good Idea of the rate of increase in personal property made this year in comparison with last year. The ratio on both personal and real property in Shawnee county will likely be about Ave times that of last year. This would make the real estate assessment for the county 70 million dollars this year.

In fact, the total for the above eight townships equals the entire real estate assessment of the county last year, and two townships and the city of Topeka are yet to be ac counted for. While none of the per-, sonal assessments are yet footed up, the county assessor believes that they will show about the same rate ofc In crease. SOLDIERS WILT. Many Overcome by Heat at Parade In Berlin. Berlin, June 1. Emperor William gave King Gustav and Queen Victoria of Sweden a magnificent military show today, the occasion being the annual spring parade of the garrisons of Ber lin and neighboring stations. Thirty thousand men of all arms of the ser vice, about 8,000 being cavalry, ma neuvered in the two square miles of the temple parade field.- The emperor and the king of Sweden viewed the troops on horseback, and were attended by several of the reigning princes of the' minor German states with thetr staffs, to the number of- about 100, forming a brilliant cavalcade. The empress and aueen of Kwerion were on the left of the reviewing stand. wiieie, urawn up in lour lines, were the carriages of the diplomatic corps. Including Charlemagne Tower, the American ambassador, and Mrs. Tower and many distinguished guests. In consequence of the extreme heat, many of the soldiers were overcome, not withstanding the severe training, con sisting of daily marches of from fifteen to twenty-five miles which they under went during the last three months.

Figures given by Forecaster Kttery show also that the greatest 24 hour rainfall of any May occurred last May 7. The greatest previous 24 hours drenching was in May, 1893, and was 3.4 inches.

Copyright Does Not Protect Them in Sales Contracts.' A NEWSPAPER WINS. In a Case Charging It With Copyright Piracy. In Reproducing a Hap From an Official Publication. Washington, June 1. The supreme court of the United States today de cided three Important copyright cases, the opinions being handed down by Justice Day. The first decision was in the case of Bobbs-Merrill company vs. R. H. Macy Co. and Isodore H. Strauss, the decision being in favor of Macy Co. In this case the court dealt with the question whether the sale by a retail dealer of a copyrighted book below the price fixed by the pub lishers is an infringment of copyright. The Bobbs-Merrill company publish ed a novel and stipulated in a printed notice that it should not be sold for less than one dollar per copy. The house of Macy sold the work for 89 cents and suit was brought according ly In the circuit court of the United States for the southern district of New York, but the bill was dismissed. A like result followed when the case was appealed to the circuit court of ap peals and today's decision was in the same line. The suit was based on the theory that the right to dispose of a copy righted work gives the owner the right to place restrictions on Its sale. The right of publishers to regulate the price at which their books may be sold by retailers and jobbers also was involved in -the two cases of Charles Scribner's Sons versus Isodore and Nathan Strauss, doing business as R. H. Macy and company, all of New York, which was against the former concern. The suits were brought by the Scrlbners as representatives of the American Publishers' association and they sought in the first of them to enjoin the defendants from selling their coyprighted books at prices be low those fixed by the association and from buying any- such publications from anyone who Is not a member of the association on the ground that such a course is an infringement of copyright. In the second case the allegations was that Macy and company had sought to induce other dealers to vio late their contract with the publish ers. The fact was brought out that the Publishers' association requires firms dealing in their copyrighted books to eni lnkz, i. contra ct-jj-lo maintain fixed prions for a year and not sell to anyone who would cut prices. The circuit court of appeals decided against the publishers' in both cases, holding that the sellers had not agreed not to cut prices and there was no evidence or an effort "to in fluence others. That the republication of the map printed in an official publication is not always piracy under the copyright law, was held today by the supreme court of the United States In deciding the case of the Globe Newspaper company of Boston vs. George H. Walker Co., in which case the decision was favorable to the newspaper. The suit grew out of the fact that the Globe reprinted a map of the electric rail ways of Massachusetts, which was compiled by Walker and published as a part of a state report in 1899. Walk er brought suit for damages on the charge of infringement of copyright and the United States circuit court for the district of Massachusetts awarded him $250, but the supreme court reversed the decision of the lower court. COWBOYS AND INDIANS. Gather by Hundreds to Hear Bryan Speak at Crawford. Chadron, Neb., June 1. William J. Bryan opened the second week of his Nebraska tour at Chadron, where he addressed an early morning crowd which had gathered to meet his train. For the day he has five speeches. Af ter leaving Chadron a special train took him to Crawford. He was greatly in terested in the outcome of the Aldrich Vreeland bill in the United States sen ate, the first news of which reached him late Sunday night. "The currency bill, though called an emergency, measure," he said, "has been pushed through as a part of a plan formed several years ago to se cure a change in the basis of bank notes. I am glad the Democrats op posed it and am sorrythey did not succeed In defeating it.." It was a matter of considerable dis appointment to Mr. Bryan that the cur rency bill was passed and he indicated that he would more fully express his objections to the measure at a later date. iUUIc Liiau platform to greet Mr. Bryan despite rain which fell half of the night. He was driven to the home of Judge Alvln W. Crites for breakfast. A stand on the principal corner was surrounded by one of the most enthusiastic crowds which has yet greeted Mr. Bryan. Sev eral hundred cowboys and Indians were among those gathered to hear him speak and he was greeted in truly frontier style. Fitting his address to the occasion, Mr. Bryan spoke for an hour, during the course of which he dealt with public issues as they affect the cattle country and the Nebraska farmer. Tendered a Banquet. Crawford, Neb., June 1. An elabor ate programme was mapped out by the committee at Crawford for the recep tion of William J. Bryan. Following an address at Syndicate opera house his party was escorted to a local hotel where a banquet was tendered him. Mr.-Bryan spoke briefly, tnaniing the people for the hearty reception. He took occasion also to recommend to the people the Bryan volunteers, under whose auspices the present state tour is made, and said that organiza tion was a success. The menu card was headed with a portrait of the honored guest and be neath it was a picture of tne White house with a significant reference con necting the; two pictures. WHITLOW IS FREE Acquitted of Murder of May Sapp at Moran. Jury Out Thirty-Six Hours Be- fore Beaching Agreement. A NEGKO HELD OUT. C. C. Seymour Believed Whit low Carried a Bazor. Accused Says He Will Begin His Irfe Over. Iola, Kan., June 1. After thirty six hours, the Jury in the case of Samuel Whitlow, charged with the murder of Miss Sapp at Moran, Kan., brought In a verdict of not guilty Sunday morning at 7 o'clock. The verdict was reached soon after the jurors returned from breakfast. It was the first ballot they had taken since midnight. Samuel Whitlow. Soon after the verdict was reached the lawyers and defendant were noti fied, and it was an hour before they were brought into court. Whitlow ap peared dressed in working clothes. He was exceedingly pale. His face wore a determined look. During the long wait before the judge and law yers and court officials could reach the court room he walked nervously about. He said he felt confident that the verdict was for acquittal, for he was Innocent, and the state had made no case against him. "But no one can ever tell what a Jury will do," he commented. There was not a sign of color in his face when the Jury sat down and the Judge asked that the verdict be handed up. As it was read Whitlow grew even paler, especially when the state asked that the jury be polled. Not until the last man had declared that it was his verdict, and that he was satisfied with it, did Whitlow ex hibit any feeling. -When Judge Foust told Whitlow he was discharged he sprang to his feet and began shaking hands with his relatives and lawyers who were near him. One of the jurymen came down and shook hands with him, and then Whitlow shook hands with .each juror, telling each that he was innocent and that they had made no mistake in their verdict. Negro Stood Out for Conviction. The Jury stood seven for acquittal and four for conviction and one blank ballot at the start. It remained this way until late Friday night, when It stood eight for acquittal and four for conviction. Two more were won over to the side of acquittal on Saturday morning, and late Saturday afternoon it stood eleven to one for acquittal. Mrs. Samuel Whitlow. There it stood until yesterday mora ine when the last man came over. C. C. Seymour, the only negro on the jury and the only one who ever sat on a criminal case in Allen county, stood out to the last man for conviction. He was the last man won over. He be lieved that Whitlow carried a razor, and that a man who carries a razor means to use it in cutting some one. The Jury was made of: L. A. Deneen, smelterman, Gas City; G. C. Seym our, scavenger, Iola; O. L. Fos ter, smelterman. Gas City; S. R. RpmsberK. farmer; Nort Means, far mer; W. N. Proctor, laborer, La Harpe; J. O. Ferris, retired farmer, LaHarpe; C. W. Smith, farmer; C. V. Baker, farmer; sl.. ounivan. iar mer; David Gatlon, farmer; W. M strourj. smelterman,. Iola. Whitlow declared after the verdict that he was perfectly satisfied with it. "I knew they could not convict on the evidence before them for it was all ikat I told them," he said. "They knew nothing else. The state never seriously questionea my statement, ex cept at the time of the actual death of the girl. And why didn't I tell the truth there as well as in the other parts of my statement? "The costs of the case have wiped out all my savings, and I must now go to work to support my xanuiy. Begin nlng at the bottom as I did when I was married. I shall go to work in Iola at nrst. I believe I will nnt loava the COUnty. Everv nna hon bnnn-a mv story and the result of the trial and mere win be less to explain here than any other place." mat jury looked good to me from the start," Mrs. Whitlow said, "and I Pinned my faith in them. Of course I Knew Mr. Whitlow innnt yt Jury might not think so. I feared one man, Dut he turned out to be for us iroxn me start Mrs. Whitlow made t h following statement: "I cannot express to the people of Iola, Moran and Allen county the thanks I feel for their expressions of sympathy and confidence during the long agony which is happily ended to day. 1 want them to know that their messages of kindness and good will have done much to buoy me up In the long vigils of the night and the unut terable agony of these months now past, and, I trust, forever burled. I can never forget the friends who have stood by us so loyally. MRS. S. F. WHITLOW." Whitlow may be arrested for Der- Jury committed before the first cor oner's inquest before he had told of his connection with the case and when he was trying to shield himself. He swore then that he- knew nothing of the case, and did not know how May Sapp came to her death. His lawyers declare that they will clear him of this charge, if it is made, much easier than they did of the charge of murder. AUTO HITS A TREE. Two of the Occupants Killed and Two Injured.

The first sea sion of the Sixtieth congress came to a spectacular end ten minutes before midnight Saturday night.

With that freedom from dignity that always characterizes the breaking up time In mj uuuse oi representatives tne re- cesses between the receiving of mes sages from the senate and the presl-. dent were- given over to wild hllarltv. mere were singing contests between the members on the floor and the newspaper men in the press gallery. Every member on the floor had an American flag. They waved the flags and sang all the old melodies and a lot of songs of brand new construction set to the old tunes. At times the scenes on the floor -were suggestive of the exciting mo menta at a national political convention. A procession of members, old and von n sr .moved (n tr tha hnnnA frnm th corridor, the leader bearing aloft a broom to whieh- w attached a litho graph bf "Uncle Joe" Cannon. All had flags.- The- -procession- moved to the space fronting the speaker's desk and there all sang the praises of the speak er. A little later a rival procession moved down the-center aisle to "mix. it ud" with the Cannon shouters. On tJ I 111 11K1L XACOUCU LII1B 11 was a big picture of William J. Bryan. The Republicans and Democrats tried to outyell each other and a mighty V- V. -4 n tkl. 1 n i-uiiiDi iiiiiiivjitiLrijr ma.a picjipiuiteil to determine which picture could be raised the highest. The tallest man on each side seized the respective brooms. Then the tall Dr. Barchfeld of Pennsylvania grabbed the Cannon broom and jumped on the reporters' table. A Democrat next tried to stand on a revolving seat chair placed on the clerk's desk and fell over the speaker's desk- In "Uncle Joe's" lap. The Cannon forces then won the contest by shooting the Can non broom into the press gallery where the correspondents seized it and lifted It to the chamber ceiling. Filibustered to the Last. The Democrats persisted to the last in filibustering in the house, but they were good natured about It. They even demanded a roll call on the resolution to adjourn at 11:60 o'clock. The president, accompanied by Sec retary Garfield, Assistant Secretary sacon ana secretary Loeb, arrived at the capitol at 8:55 and went directly to his room. The senate had passed the government employers' liability bill, and no legislative business of impor tance remained. The senatcs, worn out by the filibuster, were few in num ber when the night session com menced, and after adopting an ad journment order, rapidly disappeared. Senator Aldrich and a number of other senators called upon the presi dent, senator La ifoiiette came In as Mr. Aldrich was leaving.

"Senator Aid rich tells me, however, that he and his colleagues enjoyed the proceedings." Representative Wilson of Chicago was Dresented by the president with the pen he used in signing the emer gency currency bill. Aside rrom tne regular supply bills making appropriations for the support or me goverumcni during me next fiscal year, the achievements and fail ures of congress during the session may be summarized as follows: What Congress Has Done: Enacted an emergency currency lav4 Prohibited child labor in the District of Columbia.
