A. White Has Deliv ered Ultimatum. T. R. Electors Will ot Under Taft's Name. Run Postlethwaite "Was Game Tried Hard. and COMMITTEE DESERTED HIM Even His Fellow Electors Would Sot Stand. And So Most Stubborn Legal Battle Ended. It Is now almost certain that the Roosevelt electors will be taken i ff the Republican column of the ballot. The state committee will not bring suit against the secretary of state to keep him from placing Taft's name at the head of the column. The Rooscveit electors will not bring this suit. Wil liam Allen White has stated positively that the Roosevelt electors will not be allowed to stay on the Republican ticket if Taft's name is placed at the head. So it now appears certain that within the next day or two, or few hours, that the Roosevelt electors will withdraw voluntarily from the Repub lican column and be placed by petition on the independent column. For two months past the factions of the party in Kansas have been fight ing to get these electors out of the Republican column and to keep them there. The case has been tried in the district court, the supreme court a.r.ri in the federal courts and is now in the United States supreme court. The Roosevelt electors won in every case except that of the United States su preme court and it has not been tried there as yet. The Taft supporters in Kansas have waged bitter war on the placing of the Roosevelt electors in the Republican column, claiming that Taft is the reg ular nominee of the Republican party. They have threatened to bolt if they were disfranchised. The Roosevelt men have claimed that their electors were nominated by a majority of the Re publican party voters at the last pri mary and were entitled to places at the head of the party ticket. But in ;lie interest of harmony and the state and congressional candidates there has been talk for two weeks that the Roose lelt electors would be withdrawn. The action of Chairman Dolley, of the tate committee, today in declining to lile suit against the secretary of state t) keep Taft's name off the Republi can ticket practically marks the end of the fight. The secretary of state and attorney general take the ground that they have no more authority to keep the names of Taft and Sherman off the ticket than they have to keep the names of the Roosevelt electors off the ballot. Then; officials, as members of the state content board, recently decided .that they could not keep names of the Roosevelt electors off the ballot; and in harmony with that decision, w;;l hold that they cannot keep the names of any one else off the ticket. Their attitude is that everyone whose nom ination is not contested in some law suit or similar proceeding, is entitled to have his name go on the ballot and if this leaves a resulting inconsistency, it is not their fault. The supreme court has held that the secretary of state is not the censor of political pai ties nor the guirdian of public morals. His duty is merely to certify out tne names of everybody nominated. Postlethwaite Undecided. After changing his mind three times today, Robt. Postlethwaite. T. R. elec tor, was undecided at 3:30 whether or not to bring the suit against the sec retary of state to try to compel him to take Taft's name off the Republi can ticket. He claims now to have the electors behind him, and it is up to Postlethwaite. The elector stated positively last night that he would bring the suit. Today the state com mittee refused to bring it, and it was reported some of the other electors would not stand hitched. William Allen White is in the city and he has conferred with Postle thwaite and Chairman Dolley. Con gressman Fred Jackson is out of town. Final decision will not be made until Jackson gets back tonight. Rut it is a two to one wager that the suit is not brought and that the T. R. electors go over to the independent column. TAFT DOCTRINE. Policy Regarding Latin-American He publics Is Declared. Washington, Sept. 18. The policy of the United States in its relations with j evolution-torn little neighbors in Cen tral America and the West Indies, is clearly denned .in an instruction from 1he state department embodied in a note presented by Minister Weitzel to the Nicaraguan government. The com munication is expected to create a pro found sensation in Latin America, for while it was addressed to Nicaragua, it will be recognized as a general warning:. America's purpose, the instruction declares, is to foster true constitu tional government and free elections demand. Force will be usetf u nec essary, in maintaining free communi cations with and to protect American ministries and legations. This policy already has been adopted in San Do mingo. Panama and Honduras. Minister Weitzel was directed to present his instruction officially to the Nicaraguan government and unofficial ly to the revolutionists in that coun try and to make it public, as an auth orized declaration of policy. ALL"CLEANEfOUT Bull Moose Members of the Republican Committee Who Refused to Resign Have Been Expelled. New York. Sept. .5 8. The Republi can national committee today accepted the resignation of its members from Minnesota, Oklahoma and Ohio and declared vacant the seats held by members from New Jersey, West Vir ginia and North Carolina, who are Roosevelt supporters. Successors were named to retiring members from Ok lahoma, Ohio, New Jersey and North Carolina. The committee refused to recognize tolccrron, T,ic,c i V'OT-V nf Can fni-niji ar,r,.r,ir, his irnx t i on and voted 'to evrei him for "disloyalty to the Republican party." Chairman Hilies was empowered to appoint a subcom mittee of three to recommend a suc cessor to Mr. Avery. This action was taken, it was ex plained because a majority of the sta'e committee of California ar? support ers of Colonel Roosevelt and the choice of a Republican national com mitteeman could not be left to them. The subcommittee. Mr. Hilles an nounced, would confer with Republi can leaders in California concerning both the matter of Mr. Avery's suc cessor and the situation in that state. The subcommittee will report back to Hilles its findings. KEEP QUARREL FIGURES Xew Judge Will Be Able to Tell All Aliout Trouble. Chicago, Sept. 18. Municipal Judge William N. Gemmill, who has just succeeded Judge Charles N. Goodnow in the court of domestic re lations, proposes to keep an elabor ate statistical system of the causes for family quarrels so that at the end of the year he may be able to tell the whys and wherefores of the trouble on a general basis. "I am going to get at the root of the evil, the specific cause of gen eral sorrow," he said last night. "I will not be content with curing indi vidual cases, but will keep check from day to day on a form I will have pre pared for the purpose. "Whether the sins of the father should be blamed for juvenile wrong doing; whether too much mother-in-law is the cause of divorce; whether a ban- should be placed on youth ful marriages; whether moral, mental or even physical defectiveness wreck homes that once were happy all this and more will be determined by the social statistics." NOVEMBER WEATHER, The Temperatures Average fifteen Degrees Below Normal. Today the temperatures are aver aging fifteen degrees below normal for this state in the past 26 years; nine days ago the temperatures were 16 degrees above normal. That is a re markable contrast, and consequently steam heat in down town office build ings today did not feel uncomfortable. The forecast calls for fair weather with possible frost in the low places tonight; Thursday fair and slightly warmer. Rain was reported from several Kansas points for the 24 hours end ing at 7 o'clock this morning as fol lows: Fort Scott, .16 of an inch; Iola, .01; McPherson, .02; Sedan, .34; Wichita, .18. Temperatures have ranged below normal at all government stations and were uncomfortably close to freezing in western Kansas last night. Clear weather was reported in all parts of the district this morning. Showers have fallen in south central and south eastern Kansas and southwestern Mis souri. The wind is blowing 12 miles an hour from the northwest.

Sup- THE RECORDS ON THE TARIFF Of the Rival Candidates Are Passed in Review. Roosevelt Held Up as Enemy of the Trusts. New Tork, Sept. IS. Charles D. Hilles, chairman of the Republican na tional committee, has issued the fol lowing statement: Shall we uphold the constitution and the protective policy? These are the two important issues of this cam paign, the two which' are gradually forcing themselves on the attention of the American people. Theodore Roosevelt stands for what amounts to an overthrow of the constitution and Woodrow Wilson would destroy the protective tariff policy under which the United States has so greatly pros pered and attained to a wealth and importance undreamed of a few dec ades ago. President Taft is both a protection ist and a revisionist. He was the first leading ReDUblican o declare tor I thorough revision of the tariff sched ules. This he did at Bath, Maine two years before he was nominated lor the presidency. President Roosevelt, who read Mr. Taft's speech before it was delivered,' warned him that he was treading on delicate ground and that he would make a host of enemies. but with that fearlessness wnicn nas always characterized him where mat ters of principle were concerned, Mr. Taft delivered an address in which he expressed his exact sentiments and braved the animosity of the "stand pat" element of his party. During the seven years of his ad ministration Mr. Roosevelt remained silent on the subject of the tariff. On the one occasion when he became con vinced that it was his duty to urge cjngress to revise the Dingley law he inserted in an annual message a prom ise of a special message on the sub-J ject. Mr Roosevelt's friends in con gress went to the White House and pointed out the danger to his popu larity of attempting to change the duties, and Mr. Roosevelt promptly caused to be stricken from his mes sage, which had been printed but not yet published, the passage referring to the tariff. No sooner had Mr. Taft been in augurated president than he called congress in special session to revise the tariff and during the consideration of the measure framed at that session, all his influence was exerted to secure an equitable adjustment of the rates. The Tariff Board. But during that session Mr. Taft found that it was impossible to secure a just or a satisfactory revision of the tariff without definite and impartial information on which to base such revision. He found the widest differences of opinion as to what constituted the dif ference between the cost of production at home and abroad, to which differ ence the Republican party was pledged to make the duties conform, and whatever might be his personal views he had no proof, no" unquestion ed evidence by which to prove his con tentions. The great essential therefore, the president determined was to provide a board or commission, bi-partisan in character, if possible, as free from politics as possible, which would take up the industries which enjoy pro tection, investigate the cost of produc tion here and abroad, and report both to the president and to congress that difference, in terms which would make evident the rates of duty which should be imposed. And for the foundation of such a board the Payne tariff bill provided and for that rea son above all others, the president signed it. The correctness of his views in this respect has been amply demonstrated by the Democratic attempts to revise the tariff during the last two sessions. The tariff should be revised grad ually to meet changing conditions. To whom would you entrust he task? To Mr. Wilson, who stands on a platform which declares that ai.y tariff imposed for protective purposes is unconstitutional and whi-se parfy made a hodge-podge of ths t.iriff b:lls it passed through the house during the present congress? To Theodcre Roosevelt, who during his more than seven years in the White House never had the courage to urge congress to revise the tariff? Or to William H. Taft, who has stood courageously and undeviatingly for the protect;- tariff, a tariff board which would ascertain the exact difference between the ro t of production at home and abroad, and who with the report of such a board and a congress Republican in both its branches, would corn pel a re adjustment of the duties to those dif ferences Dixon's Statement. Senator Joseph M. Dixon, chair man of the Progressive national com mittee, has issued the following state ment: New York, Sept. 18. Republicans and Democrats often ask me why I have allied myse:f with a "third party" which cannot possibly elect a presi dent. Continued on Page Two HE LIKES HARDWIGK. But Harvard Coach Keeps Crowd of Candidates Kicking. Cambridge, Mass., Sept. 18. Additions to the Harvard football squad have brought the total number of players out for the "Varsity eleven to seventy. The practice is still devoted strictly to rudiments. The charging machine is being used on the candidates for line positions, and much kicking practice is being indulged in on the order of Coach Houghton, who hopes to develop a good substitute lor Felton the punter. Hardwick is showing up well, 1 surpassing the best kicks of the other players by fifteen yards. 1 DOUBLEFUNERAL The Bodies of Gen. Nogi and His Wife Laid to Rest. Procession of 50,000 in Honor of Dead Warrior. THE NATIONS REPRESENTED Relatives of Soldiers Killed at Port Arthur March Behind the Coffin of the Great Leader. Tokio, Sept. 18. The double funeral of General Count Maresuke Nogi, su preme military councillor of Japan, and hi:, wife the Countess Nogi who committed suicide on the night of September 13 just as i the body of the late Emperor Mutsuhito j passed out of Torfio city on its way to tne imperial tomb at Monomyama was held today with impressive ceremony at i the Ayatna cemetery in the presence of enormous crowds. The funeral cortege left the Nogi residence in Akas- aki, a Tokio suburb, at 3 o'clock this afternoon and passed through the streets of the capital. The body of Japan's great warrior was borne on a gun carriage while the casket contain- ing the body of the countess was car- ried in a hearse. The palbearers were chosen from the highest ranks of the I Japanese army and navy. One retri- i ment of infantry acted as a guard of honor. Representatives of the special for eign envoys who came to u'.tend Mie funeral of the late Japanese monarch and the resident ambassadors and ministers participated in the r reces sion which altogether numbered up wards of 50,000 persons. Marching behind the coffins were great rumbers of relatives of soldiers killo-l at Pert Arthur while serving under General No?i in the spring of 1904. The special ambassador of tie United States, Philander C. Knox, rMd not participate in the ceremony, be ing absent at Kioto, where l:e went to visit the grave in the imperial estate of Monoyana- He was represented, how ever, by Brigadier General John J. Pershing, of the special embassy staff. Mr. Knox sent a magnificent wreath. PLANT SEED SOON K. S. A. C. Says 5 Farmers Are Losing Yaluaile Time. Land Prepared Only Can Seeded to Wheat. Be Mahattan, Kan., Sept. 18. What can the horseless farmers of Kansas do, now, to provide for next year's crops? How can they help one anoth er? These questions have been dis cussed by department heads at the Kansas Agricultural cfollege ever since the epidemic of horse disease began. It came up again, this morning, for final disposition in President Water's office when Dean Webster returned from the west, and William M. Jar dine, head of the farm crops depart ment, was called in. No such situation ever has confronted the college or the farmers. It was realized, keenly, that these farmers are not in a mood, just now, to receive advice, but it was pointed out, also, that the fall is too far advanced to permit any further delay if anything at all is to be done. This is the best possible program: It Is Too Late to Plow. It is now too late to plow. Farmers would get no returns anyway. Their whole effort. Professor Jardine says, should be directed to the ground al ready prepared. On very many farms, he and Dean Webster say, some land already has been prepared for wheat. This can be seeded if the farmers will co-operate. In many communities there are one or two traction engines. Behind one j of these engines three or four drills can be attached, and if the land still needs preparation, a disk may be at tached ahead of the drills. Where there are no engines and only a few horses these horses should be put to work at once. Many far mers are now keeping their remaining horses in the stables. This is no safe guard against disease. They will get it in the barn as well as in the field if they are to have it. Wheat, in western Kansas, should all be in the ground in the next fif teen days. Land not in wheat this fall should be listed or plowed much better to list thoroughly and deeply, ready to put in a large crop of kafir, milo or cane, in the spring. "This is the time for engine people to demonstrate the value of their ma chines," said Dean Webster. "Many engines in the west are standing idle. Farmers seem panic stricken. It does no good to talk horses or disease or cures. The only hope is to start some thing and start it immediately. En gines should be working constantly. There are plenty of men in Kansas to operate them." THEY WANT STATEHOOD Honolulu Republicans Ask That Wom en Be Given Votes. Honolulu, Sept. 18.

Gives Facts About Senatorial Primary Law. PRIMARY ELECTION RETURNS Five Counties Gave Curtis Big Vote on Liquor Question. Those Matters of Taxes and Curtis' Support of Thompson. Under date of September 14, Chair man Dolley wrote to Governor Stubb3 and asked him to explain certain charges made against him by Senator Curtis, regarding the primary law. re lating to the -election of United States senators by senatorial and representa tive districts, as well as his Douglas county taxes for the year 1903, etc. Chairman Dolley says that Senator Curtis, in his published statement of September 14. admits that he is bolt ing more than half of the regularly nominated Republicans on the state and congressional tickets and is trying to elect Democrats in their places. These Republicans were regularly and law fully nominated at the August primary bv Republican votes and are support ing the entire Republican ticket as nominated in this state, including pres idential electors. Every presidential elector ,on the Republican ticket was nominated strictly in accordance with the laws of that state. The senator proclaims bitterly the fact that Governor Stubbs is a wealthy man. Chairman Dolley makes this statement that Senator Charles Curtis is as rich a man in this world's goods as Governor Stubbs. It sounds strange, nevertheless it is true. The reply of Governor Stubbs fol lows: About That Primary Law. Dear Mr. Dolley: Your inquiry in regard to the provision in the primary law relating to the election of United States senators by senatorial and rep resentative districts, as well as in re gard to my Douglas county taxes for the year 1903 and concerning other mis representations injected into the cam paign by Senator Curtis, are at hand and in reply thereto permit me to say that I introduced the primary election bill in the legislature of 1908 with a positive provision for the nomination of United States senators by popular vote. This bill, which was known as the Stubbs'" bill, passed the house of representatives and was transmitted to the senate containing the popular- vote provision. The "senate lodge," com posed of 23 members, flatly refused to permit the Stubbs' primary bill to be come a law with a provision nominat ing United States senators by popular vote, and amended the bill providing that senators should be nominated by legislative districts. This amendment was forced into the bill by the sen ate, which was absolutely dominated by political friends of Senator Curtis and political enemies of Stubbs. Prac tically every Republican member of that senate lodge favored the election of Senator Curtis to the United States senate in the 1907 session of the legis lature and practically every Republi can member of that same "senate lodge" also worked faithfully for the renomination of Curtis during the re cent senatorial campaign. In view of the above facts Senator Curtis' state ment that I am not entitled to the Re publican nomination is too ridiculous and absurd to even be discussed. Under the laws of Kansas ther" is no other possible way for any person to be nom inated for the United States senate ex cept by the legislative district plan and Senator Curtis was never known to utter one word against this provision in the primary election law until after he was defeated. Part Played by Liquor Question. I received a popular majority vote in 76 counties out of a total of 105 and a popular majority in 10j0 legisla tive districts out of a total number of 165. I also received a popular ma jority of more than four thousand votes in 100 counties of the state out side of Crawford, Cherokee, Leaven worth, Atchison and Shawnee coun- fContinued on Pass Z. CANNON IS CONFIDENT Uncle Joe Says He Has Seen Bolts .n the Past. Chicago, Sept. 18. Cheerful and op timistic as ever. Representative Jos eph G. Cannon expressed his belief that President Taft and .he Republi can party would win in November. The former speaker came up from his home in Danville after navlng car -vassed two of the counties in his con gressional district during the last week. Within a few days he will start on an automobile tour through his district and expects to be eiected to congress for the twentieth time by a handsome plurality. "I'm not at all disturbed over the political situation," said Mr. Cannon. "I have been through campaigns like this one many times before. 1 began in 1872, when the liberal Republicans bolted from the party and when, oe spite defection, we elected our presi dent. I remember the campaign of 1876, 1880 and 1896, when again the Republican party was threatened. Vv e are having some disturbance now, but the American people know a good thing when they see it.

Amherst, Va, Sept. 18. The body of Clarence V. T. Richeson, electro cuted in Boston for the murder of Avis Linnell, the girl who once sane in the young clergyman's church, has been removed from the family plot on tne Richeson farm and buried in the village cemetery here. Flowers have been shipped here all the way from Boston with much reg ularity and they have been placed on the grave. It is the general belief here, although there is no verification of it, that the flora remembrances come from Miss Violet Edmands, to whom Richeson was about to be mar ried when he gave Avis Linnell cyna ide of potassium to get her out of the way. Colonel Varland Richeson, the fa ther, it is understood, wanted the body to remain undisturbed. Miss Richeson persisted in her determina tion to have the body placed in the cemetery where their mother was buried, and she was permitted to have her way. But she was not able to have the new grave at the side of her moth er's. It is in the same churchyard, but some distance away. On the day the body was reinterred a box of fresh flowers reached here from Boston. The flowers were taken from the box and placed on the newly made mound. At the head of the grave there was placed a simple granite cross about which clings wilted flowers. The gravestone was placed there by Miss Richeson. On the arms of the cross are these words: "Asleep in Jesus." PAPERS ARE OFFERED. Sliowing How the Harvester Trust Was Formed and Operated. Chicago. Sept. IS. Contracts and other documents by which the International Harvester company is alleged to have formed and carried on a trust were Intro duced by the government today in its anti-trust suit against that corporation. One of tile eleven contracts showed that in the purchase of the D. M. Osborn company with a plant at Auburn, N. Y George W. Perkins had signed for tne Harvester company. In this instance the government charged "for two years tho defendant concealed and denied its asso ciation with the Osborne company, ard operated the latter as an independent company. This was in pursuance of th defendant's policy of denying ownership, to use controlled companies to break down competition and secure for them selves the benefit of public sentiment against combinations." In connection with the other contracts the government contentions were KimlUr. Edwin P. Grosvenor, special assistant attorney general, in introducing exhibits said: "The Osborne company was the largest independent manufacturer of harvesting implements in 1902 in the United Stat-a after the formation of the trust. "The harvester company, through M. Perkins, acquired control in January, "This contract is signed by Mr. Perkins as chairman of the finance committee of the Harvester company. The considera tion was $4,500,000." The government charges that the Osborne company tor several years thereafter was masqueraded as independent. Mr. Grosvenor also introduced contrasts alleging the acquisition by the Harvester company of the Keystone company, Stir ling, 111.: the Aultman Miller company, Akron, Ohio, and the Minnie Harvester company of St. Paul.

Adam Bede of Minnesota, is trailing Col. Roosevelt and, making speeches for the Republi can national committee paused in his address here late last night long enough to lead from the platform Meyer Lissner, chairman of the Cali fornia Republican state central com mittee, and head of its Progressive organization. Harlan was interrupted, hooted and hissed, repeatedly in the course of hia speech, by a band of Progressives, among whom were Lissner and Francis J. Heney. Near the end, he paused, and pointing to Lissner and compan ion, invited them to the platform. Lessner complied but refused a seat. "If you dare interrupt me again." said Harlan, "while you are standing on this piattorm. I will see that your stay is short." Lissner turned, and Harlan, placing his hand on Lissner's shoulder, expedi ted his departure from the platform. NEARLYJOSEST, r. Colorado Fair Management Refuses to Furnish Special Train.

PRESS FOR A COLT Kansas Republican Newspapers Fight Ball Jloosers. Cry Against Stubbs, Capper, Akers and Their Crowd. HAVE A m INFLUENCE Country Weeklies Hare Won Many Political Battles. Comments From Widely Quot ed Papers Oyer State. The Kansas Republican press has taken up the cry against the Bull Moose In Kansas and through the ool umns of some of the most widely quo ted party papers In the state, la run ning words of encouragement for the crowd leading the holt on the Progres sive candidates who names appear on the Republican state ticket. Against the Roosevelt electors Is the greatest cry, but many of the staunchest Re publican papers of the state are link ing Stubbs, Capper,. Akers, Austin and the Progressive congressmen with the Bull Moose crowd and loudly cry for their political scalps. Such papers as John S. Gilroore's Fredonia Cltisan. W. E. Blackburn's Anthony Republican. Bert Walker's Os borne Farmer, Ewlng Herbert's Brown County World, E. E. Kelley's Toronto Republican, Tom Thompson's Howard Courant, Ralph Faxon's Garden City Telegram and a score of others are leading the bolt of the Bull Moose In the Republican column. What does it mean? Ask the politician. He is as puzzled and worried as you. Never be fore has such a condition existed in Kansas. Even in the old palmy day when Kansas turned upside down and elected the Pops from road overseer to governor even in those days It was different. The party papers stood ut and fought the battle of their party They bled and died for the oause. But this year the old staunch, tried and true country press is drawing away and taking stock with the enemy. Old politicians will tell you that many battles have been won and lost in Kansas through the influence of the little country weeklies the same pa pers that are this year driving tacks in the political records of some of the men who have a place on the state ticket. This is what a few of them had to say last week about political conditions in Kansas: Osborne Farmer. "This layman has always been a Republican and he intends to stay that way. But his eyes have been opened to the solemn fact that the stables need cleaning. Also, the devi! has taken up his abode among us. Now we can't drive the devil back to his Jungle lair by sprinkling holy water on him. We have tried that scheme for the past six years. It nas utterly failed. But the 40,000 loyal Republicans in Kansas have votes that if properly placed will do a whole lot of good. We know of one i.iat is go ing to be placed In the proper spot. We know of 400 more of the same kind in Osborne county. There may be more. The number is increasdr.g every day. Some may look upon thJi as heresy, coming from a staid old pa per that flung the Republican banntr to the breezes since the buffalo grazed within two blocks of its back door. But it isn't heresy. It is patriotism. We would rather go forth io fight in the cause we believe to bo just and fall in battle than to sit like a coward in our tent for fear of losing 10 cents' worth of business- And we stand forth and proclaim that we are Jut as good a Republican as any man whose foot ever trod the green sward of the Solo mon valley. We have enlisted to ap ply the fire and sword to cieanse the party of its parasites, confident that the coming events will endorse our ways." Anthony Republican. "In Vermont and last week at St. Louis, Colonel Roosevelt declared posi tively and emphatically for Progres sive tickets, separate and apart from either the Republican or the Demo cratic; that above all things, the new party phould heed the admonition 'Thou Shalt Not Steal' and also. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.' Both of hr-e quota tions seem to apply very aptly to the Roosevelt electors on the Republican ticket, where they are liar in pretend ing to be Republicans and thieves In that they rob the Republicans of the state of the right to vote for presi dent. Yet. It will be seen that when Colonel Roosevelt visits Kansas, as he will this month, he will reverse him self to the extent of cordially endors ing the present intolerable condition and his followers will throw up their hats and split their throats over It. Plalnvllle C-axett "Bill White, national committee man for the National Progressive party with Stubbs and Bristow and Tapper assisting, has booted the elec phant from the premises and the Bull Moose roams the range trium phant.

This Man Gare Seat to Ladies and Got Scowls for Thanks. "Every once in a while I am treat ed to an experience that sours me," a Topeka man said, talking to a friend. "See that crowd of men in there?" pointing in the street car they' were riding. "There must be- nearly a core, of women standing, and there isn't a man in the car sees one of them. But as I said, I am treated to an experience every now and then that sours me, and I don't blame those fellows much. "The other day on this line I was on a crowded car, but got on early enough in the game to get a seat. In a little while two large ladies stopped beside me. I didn't see them, but they began talking rather loudly about the rudeness of men who re main seated while ladies stood. I couldn't stand much of that, and final ly got up. What do you suppose they did? I 'Oh.' one of them squealed, 'there Is a seat. Take it quick before any body else gets it.' "Did they thank me? I should say not. They even scowled at me as I went to the rear of the car to stand on the platform. It seems to me that, at least, they might have appreciated that I was tired, and that giving up that seat cost rrve a pang, even though It was a small one. "So, you see, if masculine courtesy has reached so small an ebb that men retain their seats in a crowded car while women stand, maybe the lack of courtesy is traceable to a similar lack on the part of women who, like my ladies, would grab a seat with out so much as an acknowledgment to him who gave it up. I may give up another seat soon. But somehow I have my doubts." PRESS FOR A BOLT.

Unless we mistake the tem per of the true Republicans of the stat the line of cleavage will not only shov as between Taft and Roosevelt, but it will be easily traced through both statt and county politics In the November election. "The Republican is for Taft and Taft Republicans." Marshall County News. "There were 35.000 Republicans in Kan sas who did not turn out at all at the primaries. They will attend the elec tion in November and they will mark their ballots in a way that will sur prise the fellows who think they own the state and have contracted to de liver it to Theodore Roosevelt. They will be on hand in November and their vites will prevent the delivery. They will do more than that. Their vote? will prevent the election of candidates who voted in the party council against giving the Republican electors a place on the bsulot and who voted in favoi of placing third party electors in th Taft column under the Republican eagle. That action will be branded as a violation of the commandment that says 'Thou shalt not steal' and th participants will be pronounced guilty.' Mankato Monitor. "There should be no glory nor credit for the fellow who hides behind the bushes while the battle is raging.

He will always lift his voice in defense and in behalf of the true Republican party and its honest followers and will consider it a proud day for him when he can have some small hand in putting to rout the gang of politi cal bushwhackers and tyrants now in festing our fair land." Brown County World. "Nearly every candidate for office on the Republican state ticket is a Third party man. The platform is a Third party platform. The candidates say they are for Roosevelt, the Third par ty candidate for president. The elec tors are for Roosevelt. Now in all fairness why should a Republican feel under any obligations to support this Third party ticket a ticket com posed of men who are pretending to be Republicans merely to get Repub lican votes. At heart they are Third party men. They openly say that if the Third party men did not control the Republican party in Kansas they would not be with the Republican party. We hold that no Republican is under any sort of obligation to support anyone of these candidates any more than if so many Democrats had got in control of the Republican party and selected the' Republican of ficers. We talk about the people rul ing. They seldom do. The people do what the leaders tell them to do. The leaders in power are leading them away from the Republican party. It Is time Republicans who love their party and party principles the men who don't want to leave the party for a Third party knew the truth, as Mr. White puts It, for that Is the case. There Is no Republican party In Kan sas now. It Is a Third party. ticket and principles that Republicans are asked to support. Some may support it. Borne will not. No Republican is bolting who refuses to support a Third parts' ticket, for Roosevelt, the Third party leader, says he wants nothing to do with Republicans." Wilson County Citizen. "Loyal Republican voters do not; owe party fealty to Stubbs for U. S. I president and vice president. Not only that, but before the primary elec tion they organized and helped con summate the fraud of. running Roose velt men as candidates for presidential electors on the Republican ticket, then later voted in the party council to con tinue and emphasize the effect of that deception and injustice by printing the names of those Third party elec tors on the Republican ballot under the good Republican eagle and the names of Taft and Sherman, thus excluding electors who would vote for Taft and Sherman and depriving thousands of Kansas Republicans of the opportunity and right to vote for the National ticket of their choice. This is the rankest political fraud ever undertaken in Kansas or the country: and while it may be done un der "the primary statute of this state and no court can prevent, that aoes not justify nor mitigate, morally, the dishonesty and infamy of doing it. "From the standpoint of political in tegrity and individual honor neither Stubbs nor Capper should first have been willing to get upon nor arter ward remain as candidates on the ticket of a party whose platform they do not endorse and whose fore most nominees they are opposing. "Messrs. Stubbs and Capper should first do justice. They have no right to expect to receive that which they refuse to give." Stockton Review, "This office is in receipt of litera ture from Chairman Dolley in which the chairman is appealing frantically to the Republicans to stand by Stubbs. Why don't Dolley make an appeal to them to support Taft. We are unable to find from the literature that Dol ley is making any effort whatever for Taft. While claiming to be a Republican and claiming to represent the Republican party, Mr. Dolley's ef forts seem to be all aimed toward the assistance of a Bull Moose named Stubbs. Whenever tl.is office can re ceive literature from the state chair man that is favorable to the election of the Republican ticket, we are ready to place it before our readers but the Review is not dedicated to the cause of the Bull Moose.

National Banks Are Bringing Business Within the Law. FROM ALL SIDES. tContlmed from Page One.) Washington, Sept. IS. National banks gradually are eliminating excessive loans, in accordance with the order oi Comptroller of the Currency Murray, giving them untii September 3 to bring loans within the legal limit of 10 pel cent of capital and surplus. This fact is evidenced by reports to the comp troller in response to the call of Sep tcmber 4. Examination of the returns from one-half of the reserve cities indicated, Mr. Murray announced today, that ex cessive loans, previously numbering 28 in these places, had been reduced to 9, of which four have since been re duced. Several are only slightly in excess. All banks showing excessive loans. the comptroller said, would be com pelled to come within the law within a reasonaoie time. e win increase the number of examinations of these institutions probably to the extent of three or four a month, .to see that they comply. He has the power to revoke their Charters. On June 4, the date of the previous call, 877 banks had excessive loansi aggregating $5,271,605. I tell them that not only can the Progressive party elect a president but it will elect a president. And I tell them further that I should ally my self with It whether it could elect president or not. Most of the thinking men of this country have recognized for years that a new party was a necessity. They have tried to vote with the old parties with a clear conscience and they have failed to do so. The result has been that they have either shut their eye. when they voted or staj'ed away from the polls. The reason is simple. The old par ties have promised the things that th people have asked for; they have got the votes of the people in considera tion of these promises, but after they have got the votes it has never oc curred to them for a minute that they had any duty to perform for the peopl that gave them the votes. We have no record of achievemen that we admit. But we have in our party men whose lives are dedicated to progress, men who can be trusted to carry out Progressive principles if they are elected to office. Our candidate for the presidency has been a Progressive, although for years he was allied with the Republican party. Mr. Roosevelt as president of the United States made the Standard Oil company his implacable foe. If any higher commendation can be given hlni than that, I do not know what it is. He maae tne tiuggenheims his mortal en emies. He caused William Lorimer to denounce him publicly. He aroused the enmity of the beef trust, of the to bacco trust, of every one of the com binations of capital whose greed is re sponsible for the present high cost of living, which comes more nearly to being the real issue in this campaign than any other. Wil.son Talks on Trusts. Minneapolis. Sent. 18. How the Tj S. steel corporation incidentallv would Deneiit by the plank in the third Dartv platform proposing regulation of trusts by a federal commission was discussed by Governor Woodrow Wil son in his speeches as he passed from Sioux City. Iowa, to Minneapolis and t. Paul todav. It was at Sioux Falls. S. D.. that the Democrat nominee first drew atten tion to the origin of the third partv plank for handling the trust problem. w nere was tne method now pro posed of regulating the trusts sug gested?" asked the governor. "It was suggested in the inquiry by the house of representatives into the steel trust and it was suggested by Mr. Gary and Mr. tieorge W. Perkins. Thev have tnougnt tnis thing out. 1 am not interested to Question their motives. It may be for all I know, that they think and honestlv tninic tnat tnat is the way to safe-. guard the business of this country. But whatever they think, this thev know that it will save the XT. S. steel corporation from the necessity of do ing its business better than its com petitors. For if you will look into the statis tics of the business of the IT. S. steel corporation you will find that where- ever it has competitors, the amount of the product which it controls is de creasing not increasing: in other words, that it is less efficient than its competitors and its control of the pro duct in increasing only in those branches of the business whereby purchase and otherwise it has a prac tical monopoly. Moreover I have this to sav to the workingmen: Carry out the plan of Mr. Gary and Mr. Perkins and vou will have given a control in the mar ket for labor which will suit those gentlemen perfectly. They don't want competitors to come into the market for labor, because new competitors will mean new wages and new wasa scales. These are the very men and almost the only men who have suc cessfully opposed union labor in the United States. STUBBS IN REPLY. fCorttpred Tram Pag One.) FOR SUNDAY PARADE. Motorists Plan Txng One in Topeka for the Moving Picture Men. Letters were sent out today by W. W. Webb, president of the Shawnee Motor league, to surronding towns asking the motorists to come to To peka next Sunday for the big automo bile parade that will take place at 2:30 c'clock on Kansas avenue as was an nounced in Monday's issue of the State Journal. The parade last Friday in connec tion with the first annual meeting of me Kansas btate AutomoDile associa tion was a comparative failure due to the rains. Consequently a second pic ture will be taken Sunday. This will be sent out over the country with the "Animated Weekly" to advertise the first meeting of the Kansas autolsls. Friday night a meeting of the motorists of Topeka will be held in the rooms of the Commercial club to make definite plans for the big pa rade. The automobilists are expected to meet at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon at the corner of Sixth avenue and Har rison street. The parade will start promptly at 2:30 oclock. The autos will form eight abreast and will run to Eighth avenue on Kansas avenue. Jumps Off the Roof. Chicago, Sept. 18.

This means that the tickets must be put on pub lic sale both in New Tork and in Boston and that those who want to attend must stand in line and take their chances. ties.' In these last named five coun ties the question of law enforcement had more or less to do with the votes cast against me. I made a speaking campaign of less than one week against Senator Curtis in the primary and did not spend one dollar on elec tion day to get out votes, or for any purpose whatsoever. A most bitter and relentless fight was made against me before the primary by the Stand ard Oil attorneys and managers, the big corporations, the bootleggers and brewers, the Kansas City Journal which is managed and controlled by the stockholders and officers of the Santa Fe railroad, and the Bell Tele phine company, together with an army of men who a few years ago enjoyed special privileges at the expense of the state and who are now just private citizens. Thompson Lacks Popular Majority. Mr. Taft lacked nearly two million votes of receiving a popular majority over Roosevelt in the primary, lacked fifty votes of having a majority of the honestly elected delegates m the Chi cago convention and lacked nearly forty thousand votes of having re ceived a popular majority in Kansas, and yet Mr. Curtis insists that Taft is the regular Republican nominee. Also Senator Curtis seems to have forgot ten that Mr. Thompson, my Demo cratic opponent, whom he is trying to help elect to the senate, did not even receive a popular plurality vote, hav ing received less than one-third of the Democratic votes cast and less than one-third of the number of votes cast for me. About Personal Taxes. Senator Curtis' charges about my personal taxes in Douglas county in the year 1903 are nothing more nor less than a deliberate attempt to de ceive the public. At that time I was engaged in the contracting business. and had construction and other con tracting work scattered all over the middle west and Pacific coast states, and the property used in this business was taxed in the states where it was located. I did not have any business Interest in Douglas county that repre sented personal property except bank stock, where the bank paid the taxes. I lived in Wakarusa township outside the city and returned $2,580 worth of property, consisting principally of household furniture, horses, carriages, cows and personal effects. The asses sor returned one-third of the total valuation, which was $860. After I had become active in public life I very soon discovered that I could not serve two masters, as some other people seem to think they can do, 'and I felt compelled to either quit the service of the railroads or the service of the peo ple. I chose to ouit the former and sold out my railroad contracting busi ness, une proceeds I invested in Douglas county, as well as in other parts of Kansas and adjoining states. lard8 tTthe- i:n7Jnz Disappointing Cables Cause an Early Decline. which is the sole reason for my in creased personal property tax in Doug las county Since 1903. The World's Work Interview. j Senator Curtis' statement that I gard to the enactment of the primary election law which was published in the World's Work, bears in resem blance whatever to the truth. First, I did not give out the interview re ferred to and next, the- incident de scribed in the World's Work articie, where Governor Hoch appealed on the floor of the legislature and made a speech in regard to the primary law, was at the close of the 1907 session of the legislature and not in 1908, when the "dastardly law" referred to by Senator Curtis, was enacted. Let ters on file in my office, a-iiressed to a representative of the WorH's Work, verify the above statement. Senator Curtis claims that I never voted until I was more than 40 years old and that I have publicly boasted I was a millionaire, both of whinh statements are too absurd and frivol ous to even need a denial. They are both false and on a par wit a the fase newspaper stories being repeated by Senator Curtis about a $20,000 dona tion to the state university. Curtis Is Sore and Disappointed I do not care to blame Senator Cur tis too severely for his attitude in this campaign. He is human, x suppose, like the rest of us and feels the sore ness and disappointment of defeat It is in the nature of selfish people to have a sour temper when t'ltir ambi tion is thwarted and to wail peevishly when great opportunity and privilege is wrested from them. Senator Cur tis has no fair justification, however, to go on the warpath against me or any other man for his defeat at the primary election. He has received nearly 120,000 from the public treasury .luring the past 20 years he has been !n congress, which, considering his servlje, is a genercus compensation. v erv trulv yours", W." R.

An interesting suit to decide wheth er or not lapsed witness fees are the property of the county, or remain the property of those to whom they orig- naiiy were credited, was heard by udgo A. W.

Carpenter urges that he did ot lose his right to claim the fees even though he had permitted them to remain in the hands of the clerk for more than the year provided by law.

All that she knows so far is that his first name is Frank." Detroit Free Press. The increased attendance at the high school has made it impossible to hold general assembly periods. In year3 past prominent speakers have been engaged to address the student body as a whole, but this will oe im possible this school year. It would al most be necessary to hang the students on the walls were an assembly caiiea; at least two hundred and seventy-five students would have to stand. The only way out of the difficulty as Principal A. J. Stout sees it, will be to hold two assembly periods. Part of the student body will be in attendance at chapel" in one period and part in another. The need of an addition to the hieh school building is evident This has been discussed by the board of education, but there are no funds at the present time to use for this purpose. Some 01 me classes nave an en rollment of as many as eight more pupils than they should carry," said Mr. Stout today. There is an enroll ment of 135 in the beginning sewing class the largest number in the his tory of the high school. It will be necessary to form an additional class. Extra classes will be formed in me chanical, and free ha. d drawing. "There are fifty-nine, sixty-four, and sixty-two students respectively in the classes in penmansnip. and others are still asking for admittance. I can't state just what the enrollment is at the present time, but it is considerably in excess of last year at this time." Ericsson and Black Appeal. Notices of appeal for Hermann C. Ericsson and C. W. Black, who were sentenced yesterday for criminal libel of Judge P. B. Gillett, of Kingman, were filed in the district court late yesterday afternoon. Ericsson, whose sentence was a year in the county Jail, was released under bond in the sum of $500 signed by Black and E.- C. Wilcox, county attorney of Harper county, who was one of the defendants in the case and who was acquitted at the time of the hearing. The appeal to the supreme court will be perfected as soon as a transcript of the evidence in the case can be completed.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL SEPTEMBER 18, 1912 LEONSWIN OUT In the Big Leagues There Are Two Kinds. Stars Now Twinkling Once Failed to Scintillate. the major leagues. One kind consists 1 who have aspi-ations to Jltiack the ability, while the TJtZL made UP of Payers w'io develop slowly. .,t-lef Meyers- the Ciants' great catcher, was considered .re bigg. Ft joke of all when he broke in. Peo ple accused McGraw of trying "to change the sport Into a farce bv keep ing Meyers. Today he is a candidate for the batting championship of his league. The catching: list does lot end wan Meyers, but may be made to include Jimmy Archer, who wasn't good enough for Pittsburg or Detroit: Wil liam Killifer of the Phillies, who as turned back by the St. Louis Browns, ana several others who have been found to possess more than they rtrM showed. "Rube" Marquard is a pretty fair name to start off with in thp pitching department. He was the prize lem n of all time, and McGraw wan advised to bring criminal charges against the swindlers who charged him $ll,0u0 for the southpaw's release Larry Cheney was passed up by several clubs, but he is now one of the Cubs' star regulars: Chance himself would have turned Jimmy Lavend- r back to the minors if the National ci.mmissiin had not blocked the way. Detroit cast George Suggs adrift; St. Louis wou.d have none of "Babe" Adams after a single look at him; Cinciriati aid Boston Americans both ca.mJd Marty O'Toolo; Pittsburg woul.l have had Grover Alexander but for a friend's tip that he would not do. and many other cases of the same .?"ri bob up as you go down the list. Fred Merkle was the laughing stock of the country after the bonehead play that cost New York the 19C8 pennant, and most manasers would have dropped him in a hurry, but Mc Graw kept him. and Fred is now able to make a pretty good stab i-t playii g first base. But if Merkle doesn't suit, Brooklyn has another fairly clever first sacker In Jake Daubert, whom Cleveland sent to the minors not once, but twice. As a second baseman, l.arry Doy.e was pronounced a rank counterfeit, but he does fairly well at the position row, if he could only overcome a bat ting weakness that keeps his average down to the miserable figure of .370. Bill Sweeney of the Braves might fit in at shortstop. Chicago traded him for Randall and Howard back in ISO"7, but you don't notice either of the last named players in the big show now. For third base there is "Ileinie" Zimmerman, batting leader in the Na tional, but until this year not consid ered trood enough for regular duty with the Cubs, to say nothing of Foo by Bryne and Harry Lord, St. Louis and Boston discards. With the rest of the club so stror.g. it would be possible to get along with a weak outfield, so, although theio are numerous discards- like Sheekaru. Faskert, Ellis. Oakes. 3?eker and others, we'll just grab threj poor on?s at random and name Owen Wilson, who brought many a roast to Man ager Clarke in his early days; Tns Speaker, whom the Boston Americnns once turned over to a mil r league club for ground rent, and Joe Jac.c pon the Cleveland slugger, who was railroaded back to the busn?s by the usually farseeing Connie i--.- DIVIDE DOUBLE BILL. Wichita, Sept. 18. Durham outpitchei! Woldring and Jackson in a hard rougnt battle in the first game winn Ing, 2 to 1.

Boston, Sept. 18. Arrangements lor the baseball games of liie coming world s championship series at Fen way park are well under way. Nearly 100 persons are at work completing the arrangements for accommodating between 30,000 and 35,000 persons at each of the games expected to be play- e,d here. The carpenters are rearing: tempoi ary stands on all available space. Ten thousand seats in addition to the nor mal capacity of 22,000 will, it is ex pected, result from their labors. The clerks face each day a fresh pile of correspondence from all parts of the country regarding the 15,000 seats which will be reserved. The Boston management has adopted an elaborate system of protection against the se curing of tickets by speculators, The system already has uncovered at tempts to buy tickets In bunches for speculative purposes. It is announced that all of the lo. 000 reserved seats will be distributed to individuals in person except in the general allotment to the national base ball commission and to players. No tickets will be sent out by mail regis tered or otherwise. No money is ac cepted with applications. Only those requests for tickets for all the games in this city are being noticed and only one ticket will be issued for three games. This, it is expected, will min imize the operations of the speculative element. AMERICAN ASS'N. Louisville. 4: Columbus, 2. Columbus. Sept. 18.

Indianapolis at Toledo and St. Paul at Milwaukee postponed; rain. Bert Kennedy, who is coaching the Haskell Indians this year, springs the first bear story of the season. Kennedy, it seems, has counted upon a speedy young Indian named Jamison to be quarterback this season. The Injun was interested and promised to give the coach his best. But that was last spring. This summer Jamison develop ed strong affection for his ancestral home and about September 1 grew so homesick that he was allowed to re turn to his wigwam for 10 days. He didn't return. In fact he hasn't re turned at this time. When he does return he will be deprived of all privi leges as a result of ovestaying his furlough. So Kennedy must find an other quarter. The Aggie squad is hard at work, according to reports which are wafted here from Aggieville. The ground has been wet and the squad was kept off the field for a few days. But at that the start was made 10 days ahead of the start last year and Lowman has a good squad to work on. Among the old men who are out in suits ar Felps, Wehrle, Loo mis, Shafer and Hopper. Some of the men who are expected, from their showing on the freshmen squad last year, to go great this season are Coxen, Root, Moore. Enns, Marble, Lindsey and Lewallen. The forward pass, the thing which was originally introduced to make a ladies' tea room game of football, will be used more than ever before this year at Yale, according to dispatches. The pass will also probably be used by the lighter against heavier teams in the hope of overcdming the ad vantage given beef in the new rules. On the hill at Lawrence they are trying to find a man who can fill Pete Heil's shoes. Peter," meanwhile, is busy out here trying to decide Just which eleven of his 42 high school foot ball candidates he will send against the Lawrence high school in an effort to defeat the K. U. freshmen team. The K. U. freshmen team learns to play football by playing for the Law rence high school. Coach Moses, who is given credit for having the finest collection of foot ball brains that ever were wasted on a farm, has 50 men at work. Jay Bond will coach the freshman team.

The changes are few, the effect im portant the spectators will get a bet ter idea of the game. A field of 100 yards instead of 110, the extra 10 yards used as end zones, back of each goal, where forward passes may be received. The addition of a fourth down to gain 10 yards. The kick-off from the 40-yard line. On kick-outs opponents will line up on the 20-yard line instead of the 25. Intermissions between first and second and third and fourth periods reduced to one minute. Forward passes may be of any length. The onside kick has been discarded. The rules o away with checker board field, and it is again a grid iron. Touchdowns count 6 points. Goal from touchdowns 1 point. Goal from field 3 points. Safety by opponents 2 points. Hurdling in the line is defined as jumping over a man with both knees or both feet foremost, within five yards either side of where the ball was put in play. To prevent shifting strong players from the back field to the line on the defense, the rules forbid playing a so-called center, guard or tackle on the defense, as end or back on of fense, or any shifting to evade this rule. If a captain desires to shift one of his line men to the back field, he may do so by speaking to the ref- i eree, but the man so shifted may not return to the line. Any of the five center men, however, may be taken back five yards and return to his position at will, under Rule 9 Section 3, which provides that any one of the five center men may drop back five yards on the offense, his place be ing taken by one of the back field. One player may be in motion, tow ard his own goal, directly or oblique ly, when the ball is put in play. If this player is an end, his place must be filled, as seven men must be on the line when play starts. The rules forbid guards carrying the ball. If, having signaled for a fair catch, a player takes more than two steps, with the ball, his side must put the ball in play, five yards behind the mark of the catch. Each captain may request that time be taken out thrice during, each half, without penalty. If time be asked thereafter, the side will be penalized, unless a player be removed. No player on the side having tue ball shall use his hands, arms or body- to push, pull or hold up the man car rying the ball. Only the runner may ward off op ponents with his hands and arms. No other player on the side may use hands or arms save with arms close to the body, to obstruct an opponent. Thit includes: Grasping an opponent with hands or arms; placing hands upon an opponent to push him away from a play; en circling any part of an opponent with the arm; using the arms to lift an opponent, in blocking. Players on the defense may use their hands and arms only to get at the ball or the runner. The offense may pass the ball for ward any distance, from a scrimmage, providing the pass is made from t yards back of the line. Should a torwara pass striKe the ground in the end zones, it counts as a touchback. After the ball has been legally pass ed it may first be touched only by such members of the offense as were at least one yard behind the line ol scrimmage when the ball was passed, cr were playing end. Any of the de fense may take a forward pass, and after a defender has touched it, any member of the offense may take it The exception is that when the ball is in the air any eligible player may bai it in any direction save toward his opponent's goal, to prevent an opponent getting it. In case of a kickoff, kickout or kick from a fair catch, the ball must be kicked at least 1 yards toward the op ponents' goal line, unless blocked. Striking, kicking, kneeing or rough ing the fullback when about to kick, is punishable by disqualification. The position of field Judge is dis pensed with, leaving but three offi cials referee, umpire and head lines man. NEW HIGH RECORD. Big Increase In Foreign Commerce During August. Washington, Sept. 18. The foreign commerce of the United States touch ed a new high record during August, both in the value of American goods exported and of foreign goods brought into this country. August completed an eight month period during which America's business with other nations increased $130,000,000 on the import side and $160,000,000 on the export side, over any other year in the coun try's history. The August exports were valued at $167,885,000 and the imports $155, 000,000. In each case this was an in crease of more than $25,000,000 above the business of the corresponding month last year. For the eight months the export business of the United States was $1,417,000,000 and the im port business $1,188.000,000. FOURTEEN ARE KILLED Fifty Injured In a Wreck on an Eng lish Railroad.

Recent Xew York dispatches in dicate that attorneys cannot be too careful as to what their women clients die of. Czar Nicholas fears that he will meet with a violent death. Why doesn't he get an aeroplane and end the sus pense? Colonel Roosevelt is reported to be tired and worn. That surely doesn't describe the condition of a champion who is rushing on to certain victory. Whv shouldn't the Boston club win the American League pennant. Its members have plenty of opportunities for slinging codfish balls during the winter. Andrew Carnegie is said to be still desirous of disposing of his wealth. Yet there are thousands of boys, just gone back to school, who know they are entitled to hero medals. Cupid is said to be to blame for the capture of Sidna Alien and Wesley Edwards. Why blame? Rather should Cupid be given much praise for such a clever and serviceable piece of work. John B. Sncad of Texas, has all the earmarks of being a gentleman of in exceedingly old school. He has no more hesitancy about murdering a man against whom he has a grievance than has the average person in swat ting a fly. No wonder the Xew York police in spectors found it necessary to graft. To get promoted to an Inspectorship under the old regime a captain had to pay "politicians and others" the neat sum of $15,000, which was about equal to an inspector's salary for four years. Many Kansas farmers have suffered considerable financial losses through the horse epidemic that has ravaged the state. But there is this consola tipn for them. The loss has come dur ing a year when they can afford it better than they could during some of the recent years when crops were not eo prolific. And the many more or less distin guished citizens who would like to see the business of the nation so to tne dogs for political capital they might make out of such a condition of af fairs, must be in great, but obviously silent rage because there is no way to top the spread of the wave o prosper ity that is rolling on. Bully for Xorth Carolina: Four students at the state university there, who hazed a freshman to death, have been arrested and held in $5,000 bail each to answer for their crime. If adequate punishment follows, a little more medicine like it ought to make hazing a trifle less popular with a cer tain class of college boys- Mr ybo when Colonel Roosevelt reaches Topeka he will tell Kansans Just who were the twenty delegates nd twenty alternates that represented- them at the Bull Moose national convention. So far, this information has been kept a dark secret by Mr. White and Mr. Allen, the Kansas lead ers at that convention. Xeither do Kansans know how their delegates to the great gathering, were chosen, or 'ho selected them. Wouldn't there be high dudgeon in the ranks of the Progressive party if the government brought criminal ac tions against George W. Perkins and others for the part they played in the organization of the Harvester trust? The Harvester trust, you know. Is one of the "good" trusts, according to the classification of the Progressives. And Mr. Perkins, it must be remembered, is the financial genius of the Bull Moose party. It is impossible to im- MUKDERERS CAX UK CAUGHT. With the arrest of "Gyp the Blood and "Leftie Louie," all of the mem bers of the Xew York gang of profes sional gunmen who actively participat ed in the atrocious murder of Gambler Rosenthal have been taken into custody. Their eanture, too, has been brought about within a reason ablA time of the commission of the crime, and under exceedingly difficult circumstances. For be it known that these thugs are generally believed to have had the protection of at least a part of the powerful New York police force. Sidna Allen and Wesley Edwards, who are alleged to have played an lm portant part in the wanton murder of a Virginia judge, while on the bench and most of the officials of his court, have also been apprehended recently. They are the last of the gang, that perpetrated this outrage, to be cap tured, all of the other members of it having been more promptly, caught, and most of them have already been punished. And these successful activities in the running down of murderers would seem to prove conclusively that it is possible to hunt to earth almost any person who commits a capital crime if there is a disposition on the part of peace officers and detectives to do so Murder is more rampant in this country than in any other supposedly civilized nation on the face of the globe. All criminologists are agreed that the reason for this is because so manv of the murderers are permitted to escape arrest and any thing that savors of punishment; and also that manv who are arrested are permitted to walk out of court free men because of mere technicalities that their clev er lawyers use to frustrate the ad ministration of justice. There are a couple of patent reasons why so many of the murderers escape so much as being captured. In all of the smaller cities, throughout the en tire country, the police have no funds to traii criminals once they get out of town. The same is practically true concerning county peace officers. In Kansas, for instance, county com missioners are always reluctant to have sheriffs pile up expenses in mak ing extended searches for fugitives from justice. Then, too, the rewards offered by public authority for the ap prehension of a murderer are general ly too small to encourage private de tectives to spend their time and money running one down. In this state, the governor seldom offers a reward of more than $200 for the capture of a murderer, a puny sum, indeed, to make it worth while for any one to carry on much of a hunt for such a criminal. In other words, countless murder ers escape capture ucL-auoe of any consequence is made to locate them in the eventiof their getting a few miles away from the scene of their crimes. Nor is this difficult for them to do. There is plenty of evi dence that murderers can be caught It there is a determined and unceasing effort on the part of peace officers to do so. And the fact that so many of them get away is excellent testimony of the slip-shod methods that society tolerates for its own protection. Pro viding ways and means to run aown all murderers would be a reform worth while. At least as much of an effort should be made in this direction as there is in the hunt for bank swindlers. larger resources Is more adequately nourished than the other though) without doubt it is more daintily fed, the extra money being used not to supply actual body needs, but to grati fy the tastes of the family, and to adopt the diet to financial and social opportunities. Of course, the gratifi cation of tastes in such ways is not a matter of mere sensual indulgence; but, on the other hand, rightly em ployed, may have a decided value in raising the standard ,of comfort in family life. Yet, whatever the in come, it is better from every point of view to live simply rather than otherwise. For the man of large in come simple living may mean the pur chase of out-of-season foods, and spe cially selected supplies which are high in price, and great care in preparing foods; but it should not mean the superabundance and wastefulness of too generous living.

That the aeroplane will figure In warfare as a fighting machine as well as a dispatch bearer and an aid to scouting is indicated by the payment of $25,000 in prizes by the British government recently to Aviator Cody. The prizes were offered through the war office as rewards of victory in the military competitions at Salisbury Plains. Coincident with the Cody flights it was announced that a fund of $1,500, 000 had been raised in Germany by public subscription to purchase a fleet of war aeroplanes for Emperor Wil liam. It is impossible at this time to fore tell the future developments In avia tion. In the American civil war bal loons were frequently used for the purpose of observing the movements of rival forces, but the modern aero plane' may become a terrible engine of death if experiments now being made are successful. It is easy to conceive how a dar g aviator, under proper conditions, might circle high in the air over an enemy's camp at night, for instance, and drop bombs among the sleeping soldiers. No army would be secure in such a situation and the danger of the daring rider of the air would be elight. Man's ingenuity seems to have about reached the limit. In the devis ing of engines of death for use on land and sea, but the air presents an entirely new field whose possibilities can only be dreamed of. THE FOOD PROBLEM. Adapting food to the pecuniary re sources and living conditions of a fam ily implies more than buying what one can pay for and the same kind of things one's neighbors use, writes C. F. Langworthy of the federal de partment of agriculture In the Sep tember Home Progress Magazine. Students of economics find that while the proportion of the total in come spent for rent, clothing, etc., re mains about the same, regardless of the total size of the income, the pro portion spent for food grows less as the income increases. According to available statistics, a family with an annual income of $3,000 spends $759 (or one-quarter of the total income) for food, while a family with an In come of $1,000 spends $330 (or abaut one-third) for food. This does not necessarily imply that the family with Some of the optimistic Third Party papers, says the Emporia Times, are expressing the hope that the mw horse disease will not attack the Bull Moose.

The average girl can love almost any one except a stepfather. It Is easier to go broke In a hurry than it is to get rich, quick. Many a born leader throws up tue sponge and becomes a follower. Many a pretty woman Is merely a bunch of pride, pretense and practice. One way to hold a man's Interest is to take a mortgage on his property. People who are crippled In the head get less sympathy than any other cripples. When a man does get even with another he Is never satisfied until he gets a litt'o more so. A woman has no business with a fan--ily if she can't take something old an 1 j make it over Into something new. I It is only the big man who can say, "I have had what I wanted In this life; I have drunk deeply of Its joys and have not complained of the cost." And he that Is big enough to maintain this attitude truly lives and finds little to lament. Existence would be sweeter to most of us if we did not haggle about the price. There seems to be no way of getting out of paying for what we get. Millions of men have tried it, but all have failed. rience if we would drain the cup joyously with a smack of the lips in anticipation of the next, we pust pay the score with out wincing or regret. There are times when the considerations of nig gardly economy are a curse. There is nothing so precious in life as joy and no price is too great to pay for it. He that pays without regret robs disappointment of its sting and draws the fangs of loss. Hence, to him, there is neither disappointment nor loss, but all things are good and to be enjoyed. Too many of us are stingy of our efforts and emotions. We live like misers, counting out in agony of spirit the base coins that purchase a stale leaf. Note you the dyspeptic failure, who might have been great had he dared give him self ungrudgingly and gladly to the service of his fellows There, too, is that miserable pld bachelor, embit tered at himself and the world, who was too selfish to share his heart and his earnings with a wife and family.

(By Louise MerrifleM.) "It doesn't seem fair for me to take the money and leave you nere on this old good for nothing farm. Cherry; but I want to go so, you don't know how much I want to go. It means everything to me, you know that don't you. Cherry?" "Of course I do, you goose," Chetiy said happily, skimming the bubbling rosy froth off her currant Jelly that was cooking away on the stova. "And you mustn't stop to worry oii Dit over it, pet. Take the money and go on. Climb the path of stars and win out. I never wanted Ptars, any way. I'd a good deal rather stay here and fuss over my own stars in tire garden. Think you can start next week?" Petunia sat on the high wood bo by the west window, and 3wung her heel Idly, hugging one snce. The summer wind, sweet with 'ragrance of wild clover and buckwheat, bent the tall grass in waves liko the sea, with cloud shadows1 drifting over head. Outside the window stood tl.e old well, with its pretty pagoda shaped roof and wild cucumber vines over all. Around the corner of the old wood shed stalked Mahomet, the proud old Rhode Island Red rooster. On tne hillside across the brook rambled the grazing cows, three of them, ana a half grown heifer ehe had raised hei- self. It was all mighty dear to l.er.

I named you tor tne tninga i lovei best, dearie. It sort of comforted me." And that, would stop argument, fori the life atr the farm had not been Tiroduetive of romance, and Cherry felt that any little gleam her mother or Pet cherished snouia 'Je respecie-i.

Didn't know that, did you? Well. I did. They knew it, too. I was about 17. And when I told dad he didn't say much. tta took me out In the shop here, and Jie trimmed me up good and plenty.

Then they had both laughed, re membering Deacon Wilson and his against the self-sacrifices, ennobling and sweet, that are woman's destiny. These have starved themselves be cause they considered too long and counted too heavy the cost. They were not big enough to know that only by giving does one gain. They held themselves too dearly and in the end were as whited sepulchers, full of dead hopes. (Copyright, 1912, by the Mcciure Newspaper Syndicate.) DAFFYDILS BY TJ.

A man or woman was born In a sort of life bondage to the acres of their forefathers, he had preached; but Cherry put the thought away from her. He had been able to hold down her mother for life and choke out every little rosy flicker of ro mance in her, and now Cherry was conscious of a feeling of relief that he was resting peacefully over In the old burial ground on the hill and beyond the power to stop Pet-s going forth tc And her rainbow's end. "What are you figuring to do, specially, dearie?" she asked now, com ing across to the window. Pet pushed back her curly brown hair restlessly. "See things, don't you understand. Cherry? I'm sick and tired of look ing at these hills forever." "You could go to Europe on two thousand and still have a lot left over." "Oh, dear, there are so many things I can do with two thousand that I just don't know what to do," laughed Pet. "Why on earth is It that just as soon as you get a thing you don't want it." "That's Just a kink in disposition, soothed Cherry. "You'll want it all right. Start In planning and packing, and you'll forget to worry." "Didn't John want me to stay?' "No; he said.it was the best thing for you to go if you wanted to," Cher ry said, placidly. Pet pursed her lips and stared out at the rooster. "Aren't men queer folks?" "Meaning John? Why, he'll miss you, dear, same as I will, but we're proud to have you go and make a name for yourself." ."Aunt Julia says they have been hewers of wood and drawers of water since the days of Adam, and she'd like to know what else the pesky things are good for." Pet spoke dismally and Cherry laughed. "That's Just like her. But that's what makes the kettle boil. John'll miss you." "But he'll never say one word to keep me from going." "Wish he would?" The gray eyes were keen now. "Indeed not. He can do as he pleases." Cherry was rather thoughtful that afternoon. She cleared awny lh cooking dishes, and got lunch, and washed up those dishes. Then she went out and sat on the side porch where she. could look down the road to the blacksmith shop. She always sat there afternoons, and sewed or read, listening to John's ringing stroKes in tne aistance. It had be come part of the dally round of happy, restful days to her. But this arternpon the world looked different. Aiong sooui sunset sne left Pet to clear up the tea things, and strolled down the road. John was not in the shop. She found him out back of his own kitenen, sitting on the wide oak bench, feet up on a butter tub, reading the daily paper and eating nis supper. John, that s no way to do," she said. Just as If she didn't know he always did it summer evenings. "I brought you down some fresh cur rant Jelly and some tea biscuit. Why don't you spread a place for yourself inside and eat in comfort?" "That's what I'm doing," John swung DacK neartny. "Got some cornbread here, and cold beef, and pickles. Then Cherry said very firmly, but forcibly, "You need a wife, John." John took one of the delicate tea biscuits and buttered it with steadv nngers. Not while I've got a neighbor like you to send me these. jonn, persisted cnerry. do vou like Pet Now, wait a minute.

A kiss especially on the Una should "be a seal of affection. It should mean: "I love you."

It was an old principle, but one that had been lost sight of in a maze of legal Intricacies, which Judge Noyei. of the United States district court, has applied in the case of a consumer who had suffered from eating a trichinous pork product. The producers of the comestible, the Armour company, made a plea, based on the law of sales. to the effect that the relations be tween producer and consumer wera not direct, and that the company'! re sponsibility was en 'led when it sold its product to the first of a number middlemen, who handled the same be fore it reached the consumer. Inas much as the product was packed in a hermetically sealed can. It Is not evi dent how the Intermediate handlings could have affected the product on it way to the consumer; but Judge Noye brushed asie all quibbles, saying that the obligation of the producers should not be based on privity of contract alone, but rest on the demands of so cial justice and on considerations of public policy. Every man is respon sible for results of acts of negligence which he can readily foresee, and it no precedent existed the court would make one. This is wholesome legal doctrine, and it indicates that ciio spirit of progressiveness does not ou st solely in tnoee wno snout in nn highways. Philadelphia Record. AN IMPORTANT REFORM.

WIVES WANT DIVORCE Katie Smith and Mary Smatla Ask Court for Kreetloiii for Cause. RAIL MENWORRY First Warning of Car Shortage in Kansas Today. Rock Island Overcomes It But Others Are Coming. SEND PLEA TO SHIPPERS State Is Facing Worst Trouble in Many Years. May Request Utilities Board to Issue Circulars. Two unhappy wives have brought suit In the district court for divorce, charging various forms of cruelty against their husbands. Katie AI. Smith pays her husband, C. E. Smith, has failed to provide for her and her children, and has even allowed the household furniture to be taken on chattel mortgages, although he Is earning a salary of $4 a day. She says he owes one grocer the sum of $100. She wants a divorce and the custody of four children, May Isabel, 12 years old; Walter Lee, 9 years old; Katie Leona, 8 years old, and Benja min, 4 years old. They were married in Coffey countv, Kansas, October 14, 1S97. Mary Smatla, wife of a Rossvills, Kan., farmer says her husband has abused her, and has used physical vio lence toward her. She says on July 11, last, he knocked her down, and on other occasions was rough in hia treatment of her. They were married in Yoakum, Tex., January 25, 1910. She wants alimony, claiming they have 80 acres of good corn land near Rossville. In order to avert a serious car short age that already is staring Kansas in the face, railroad men in Topeka are preparing to enlist the assistance of the state ipublie utilities board and Kansas shippers in the problems of handling grain. The first warning of the coming shortage was felt by the Rock Island today when the road found it necessary to put forth extra efforts to handle grain in the south western part of the state. Officials of the Rock Island and Santa Fe admit that there is trouble ahead in Kansas. This trouble can be averted in a large degree by the shippers. It is the intention of Topeka railroad men to ask the state utilities commission to issue a circular plea to the ship pers .pointing out to them the import ance of unloading cars immediately. 1 he circulars would be issued with the object of calling the attention to grain shippers as' well as railroad com panies of the threatened danger of a serious shortage of cars for grain shipments in the next few months. Tha demand for cars at this time is great and it will increase in the next few months. Shippers and Railroads Co-operate, It is stated by railroad men that co-operation with the shippers could control largely vie prospective car shortage. If shippers would order no more cars than they could load quick ly, if the loaded cars wouli be billed out immediately, if merchants using cars that could be rushed into grain service would load and unload with out delay it is said that the short age tear in Kansas could be reduced to a minimum. The demurrage proposition has kill ed many railroad cars in Kansas. Mill ers who do not have storage facilities will bring a car of grain in on the sidetrack and allow it to stand there until they have enough flour to reload the car. Other millers rather pay d murrage than rent storage rooms for grain, in tftis way the railroad com panies are helpless and the cars stand for weeks on the sidetracks idle Commercial bodies, manufacturing and wholesale institutions and state, utilities commissions all over the country have pled with the shippers to assist in controlling the shortage situation, ivansas has said nothin Railroad men are anxious that some action be taken by the state commission. They promise to do their share aiding the movement. UP TO THE JURY. in Cope Missionary Case Occupied Week of Court's Time. SANTA FE NOTES. "GETS-IT" Will Get Any Corn, Sure? Almost Like Magic.

County Will Buy Coal From Three Companies to Save Long Hauls. To save expense In hauling coal to the institutions supplied by the coun ty this winter the territory has bean divided Into three districts, and the coal probably will be supplied by three different concerns. The first district on the north includes North Topeka and .he poor farm, and the contract in all probability will be let to a North Tcpeka concern. The central district includes the county buildings and the indigent poor supplied with coal in the city proper. The south district in cludes the two Crittenden homes and the indigent poor to the south. Thus a long haul, in case a North Topeka concern was awarded the contract, from the yards to the Crittenden hemes, is avoided, and the same to the poor farm in case the contract went t i a firm in South Topeka. The plan was advocated by Commis sioner James C. Shimer a year ago. It has been adopted by the county board this year, and upon the basis given the various coal companies will be asked to bid on the contracts. We have generally noticed that the woman who talks the loudest about her starved soul always wants the thickest piece of steak. Washington Post. people than any other party in exist ence, I most certainly must decline your request. The sending out of the extracts of ycur party platform is "characteristic of. the movement of this party from its inception. You show you deception m sending out these extracts. You fail to send out the "socialistic and anarch- istis" planks in your platform, for you know that will not take with the .pub lic and deception seems to be the policy of your organization. For seven years Colonel Roosevelt was president of the United States, and not one word was uttered on the tariff subject and he only takes it up now because he has to. In my judg ment no one man in the United States was more responsible for the panic of 1907 than Theodore Roosevelt. Not from anything that he had done, but from his constant "running off at the mcuth," which seems to be his great weakness. Had Colonel Roosevelt man aged to beat President Taft at the Chicago convention and been the nom inee himself, today he would be sing inp the praises of the Republican party as the only party in existence. regardless of the manner in which he received the nomination. Over 90 per cent of the various con tests presented by the Roosevelt crowd were without any foundation what ever, and because l.e was beaten ii his scheme of contests he now rinds the Republican party to be very rot ten. He is like the most of the can didates who have been beaten in their party they are very loyal until they fail to dominate and then the party is rotten. Roosevelt seems to have an itching for office equal to the "seven year" itch only seven times seen. He has held office practically his en tire life under the Republican party. It was always a splendid party as long as he could control and remain in of fice, but when the Republican party repudiates and fails to keep him in office, he then finds it to be very rot ten. In my mind he is the "dema gogue" of the age and it will be a calamity to the good people of the United States for him to again be I laced in power. You send out these requests for con tributions to the common people of the United States, not expecting to re ceive a cent but to make the pretense that you are representing the people. We are well aware that you can get all the money you want from the trusts. They owe it to Colonel Roose velt, for during his administration of seven years there were more trusts created and fostered, with his consent, than were ever organized under all other Republican administrations. The name selected for your party, the Bull Mocse, is very fitting as "The Bull Moose lives on the public domain and is a very wasteful feeder; he is of a wandering, flighty disposition; his flesh is coarse and stringy; his hide is thick and of poor quality: he fre quently shows a clumsy slowness of comprehension which amounts to downright stupidity." The colonel himself shows a great many instincts of his own designation of the Bull Moose. He cries aloud at the rotten Chicago convention, claiming that Taft stole the convention, but in Kansas he and his cohorts are seeking to .-.teal the electors of Kansas and run them under the Republican emblem and the name of Taft and Sherman. A more outrageous and dastardly scheme nev er was proposed. In other words. "Thou shalt not steal unless thou steal for me." Colorel Roosevelt. Assuring you that I shall do all I can to defeat the colcnel and his Bull Moose associates, I remain vours very truly, J. R. BURROW.

Autoist CJoing; Slow; Motorcyclist Speeding Latter to Blame. Damages were denied to Clinton Ruteflsh in the county court yesterday, which were asked against Stanley Medlicott on account of a collision be tween Butefisb's motorcycle and Medli cctt's automobile. The accident oc curred at the corner of Sixth and Kan sas avenue.. Medlicott, according to the testimony, was driving slowly, but turned the corner on the wrong side of i the street. The testimony was to the effect that the 'street was clear, "and Judge Robert D. Garver held that the road rules need not be followed in sveh a case. Butefish, on the other hand, was carrying a passenger on the tank of his machine, and the tes timony was to the effect that he was traveling rapidly. He attempted to turn off Sixth street north on Kansas avenua. Damages in the sum of J135 were asked. THEY WERE HUNGRY. That "Was Reason These Two Boys .Robbed Kiro Store.

In the 30 days ending Sundaj', Kan sas consumed 35,732 barrels of oil and 39,845 barrels of gasoline, accord ing to the report of J. S. Longshore, state oil inspector, which was filed today with W. E. Davis, state auditor. For the inspection of this oil and gaso line the state received $4,308.22, the largest fees for one month ever re ported by the oil inspector's office. The increase-jo Ih-e number of auto mobiles in the state and the invasion of foreign cars, called for the use of nearly 40,000 -barrels of gasoline used 1 in this state in 3 0 days. The use of fuel""5 oil also showed a big increase owing to the shortage in the gas sup ply. These conditions resulted In the filing of the heaviest report ever made by the oil inspector's office and the receipt of nearly 1600 more than has been previously reported in one month's business.

It Forbids Carrying Advertising Signs on the Streets. For several years Topeka has been violating a city ordinance that was not discovered until today by Mayor Bil lard. Topeka has an ordinance mak ing it a misdemeanor for anyone to carry a sign or advertising of any kind on Kansas avenue. Mayor Billard took preliminary steps today to repeal the ordinance. The ordinance according to the may or's version would prohibit grocery and dry goods merchants from allow ing their signs to appear on wagons. It would cause the arrest of a person carrying a sign on an automobile. It would make it a misdemeanor for a man to walk down the street with a sign in his hand. The ordinance was brought to lig.it recently when a complaint was sworn against persons advertising moving picture shows on the street. Mayor Billard believes the ordinance useless city legislation and asks that It be repealed.

Are Announced for Eight Republican Spellbinders. Aged Warrior Loses Speculat. ing in Wall Street. New York. Sept- 18. In a quiet, eld world manner and a voice supernaiiy oft, despite a catch that oocasionliy crept into it, Mrs. Daniel E. Slcklps unsealed her lip3 to ten for ,he first time the story of the trouble between herself and General Sickles. Airs. Sickles declared quietly that only upon two conditions would she become reconciled to the picturesque old warrior with whose life hers has been linked for 41 of its 59 years. These conditions are: First, --the general must come a courtin' just as he did in trt, old davs ck in Madrid when he was Ameri can ambassador to the court of Spain and she was a dark eyed, rien hair ed slip of a girl. Second, the general must aatree im mediately to dismiss his nous-, keeper.- Miss Eleanor Earl Winner ding, at whose door Mrs. fijkles and her son Stanton place a large part of tne name for the present unfortunate condition or affairs. It Is l"p to the General Vow. Mrs. Sickles strove to make it plain that the general himself natt make the first overtures. Although she d'd not directly state so, she allowed it to be clearly understood that she does not intend to participate n another such scene as that which took place Thursday afternoon last in the foyer of the general's ancient, manse-like home at No. 23 Fifth avenue. On this occasion Mrs. Sickles and her fon were repulsed when they went to the house to inform the general that she had pawned her jewels Jn order to satis fv an $8,000 judgment against hini thus preventing desecrating hands from being forcibly laid upon his pre sentation swords, medals aid curios collected from all corners of the globe. "There is little to say," she began. It is not true that the breach oe tween Sickles and myself is impassable. At this moment, certain conditions granted. 1 am ready to step once more into his home as Mrs. Sickies. in fait as well 'as in name. But Mies AVil merdinsr must go first. Thee, too, the proposition must come from my hus. band and it must be made m such a manner as it would be in Spain, my native country. 1 am not seeking a Tornnr-Hiation no. it must not be construed so. But the general is get ting very old. Eight years more and ho will have reached the centuiy mark. He is feeble, too, end his life is narrow. He needs Here the gentle old- lady's emotion overmastered her and she co-ild speck no more. She spent the rejt of the dav in seciusion- The rest of the story was told by Stanton Sickles, who believes that his lather is holding in trust "or him some $50,000 willed to him by h.s grandfather. Stanton Sickles stated emphatically that his mother has given th.-i general in the last few years more than $4fc. 000. "When mother pawned her jewels to satisfy the Lincoln Tru3t icmpiry judgment and saved the general's col lection, it was not the first time she had come to his financial assistance." 5aid the -son. "Seven years ago s.':e gave him $40,000 without tne slight est security." Stanton Sickles added tat. ac cording to his understanding the gen eral had been speculating in Wall street of late years and his losses hae heen heavy. Stanton said lie had asked President Wbb of the Lincoln Trust company, for what purpose the general had boi rowed the $8,000. "Mr Webb to'd me that it had be-?n represented to him that the geneial wished to satisfy the claims of another company." added the son. "Later Mr. Webb said he discovered that the monev had been spent in another way and riot one calculated to return a profit. He had no security, so he de cided to sue and foreclose if necessary, to protect himself." General Sickles remained adamant todav. No statement was r.btalnsb.e from either him or hie housekeeper.

GREETED BY MANY Crowds Visited the; "Made in Pittsburg" Special Train. It Has Many lioyel Features, Including Telephones. Enniskillin, Ireland, Sept. 18. Twenty thousand persons participated here today in the first of a series of demonstrations preliminary to "Ulster day." September 28, when Clsterites throughout the United Kingdom will sign a covenant pledg ing themselves not to submit to home rule in Ireland. Sir Edward H. Carson, president of the Ulster-Orange association and for merly solicitor general for Ireland, in a speech declared that home rule was not a question of politics, but of "the very life of the country." Other dem onstrations at which the Unionist leaders will make addresses, are be ing held throughout the province of Ulster and will continue for ten days. The Cork Free Press, a newspaper controlled by Wm. O'Brien, says the speech delivered by Winston Spencer Churchill, in which the first lord of admiralty favored the establishment of parliaments in different sections of the United Kingdom, really means that he will not join in the coercing of Ulster. STOPS FIGHT IN AIR. Captain Climbs Kiggiug 100 Feet to Save His Cook. San Francisco, Sept. 18. Captain 'Pe ter Peterson of the salmon bark Star of Chile, climbed 100 feet into the rig ging of his vessel as she came in through the heads today, and disarm ed two of his crew who had clamber ed aloft to slash at each other with a meat cleaver and a knife. The bark s cook, a negro, differed with his helper, a Filipino, and chased him into the rigging. The pair swung aloft, cutting at each other, the cook trying to chop the Filipino's legs with his cleaver, and at the same time keep out of the sweep of the helper's knife. CaDtain Peterson, fearful of losine- his cook, went up the shrouds with a mar- lin spike, and drove the pair down. The cook descended as he went up. The Filipino, fearing treachery, went over hand on a backstay to the mainmast. and thence to the deck. When Peter. son, panting, regained the planking he made them snaae nanus. KANSAS FAIRS. Los Angeles. Sept. IS Furnished with information said to have been gathered by secret service men. United States Senators William Alden Smith and A. B. Fall continued today their inquiry into alleged American sources of support for the Mexican revolutionists. Both senators said they would decline to give out '.he names of those who have or would be called upon to give information. Witnesses are merely invited to appear and tes tify and the testimony is not being given under oath. Hearings are in the nature of private conferences between the senators and those who are sup posed to have information. One man, who accepted the invita tion to come and talk over the Mexi can situation -.s said to have told the investigators that during the laft revo lution he furnished f illiburters with an order for $1,500 worth of ammuni tion.

Hundreds of Topekans visited the "Made in Pittsburg" manufacturers' special train which was stationed on a sidetrack in front of the Santa Fe station from 6 o'clock this morning un til noon. The train is the most com plete and up-to-date trade special that stopped in the capital city. Those of the 116 persons who com pose the Pittsburg party who cared to do so. were taken over the city by au tomoblle by Commercial club repre sentatives. The visitors expressed them selves as being delighted with this "western" city with her broad streets and attractive residences. The train consists of twelve steel coaches of the latest type. The mem bers of the party, which includes four teen women have been assigned to the various elaborately fitted out compart ments. Every car is provided with tele phone service. For example, when the editor of "The Daily Live Wire." a four page paper published at noon each day on the train, wishes to com municate with the press car. all he has to do is to take off the receiver of his 'phone in the official observation car. A young lady presides over a switchboard in one of the compart ments. The local Missouri and Kansas Tel ephone company management con nected the switchboard on the train today with two trunk lines. This gave the passengers on the train Topeka, and long distance service. The com pany also furnished an operator. There is a special press car, where the daily paper mentioned is printed, and where representatives of various newspapers have their typewriters. The dining car is attractive in the extreme; in fact the whole train equip ment is particularly elaborate. The train was made in Pittsburg, and wher ever possible a Pittsburg engine pulls the special. The exhibits include almost "every thing under the sun," steel articles, however, predominating. One interest ing exhibit was that of nickel-in -the-slot machines that shine one's shoes in record time, and put on a high polish. It is predicted that these will be seen on the street corners in all American cities In a few years. With the trade party is Dave Stage. traveling organizer for the Pennsyl vania Lines, with headquarters in Kansas City. A stop will be made at Wichita; la ter the train will tour the Texas cities. The visitors came away from the train today loaded down with litera ture and souvenirs. COURT AT WICHITA. trict of Oklahoma. Morton Albaugh, H. J. Bone, J. R.. Harrlsonf B. F. Flen niken, C .S. Briggs and Janet Gardner are among the federal officials expect ing to attend. In October the court meets in Leav enworth. It was announced this morn ing that the Cope cases will, be tried at that time. Several prominent Methodists who are- .obliged to come from a distance have asked that only one session be held; formerly the cases were to be held in the first and second district, Wichita and Topeka.

He will go to the reformatory at Hutchinson or to the penitentiary at Lansing. He was arrested by Officers Frazier and Morgan on the "charge of robbing his uncle's house of $99.75. His uncle, L. Crabb, of 1825 Jeffer son street, had this amount of money hid in an old stocking in the house. Mr. Crabb was working Monday and Mrs. Crabb had left home to wash for some family in the city. Jones went in the house and got the money dur ing their absence. Jones admitted to' Sergeant Dan Carden and Detective Otto1 Anderson that he took $18 of the money but asserted that he left the other in the house. Mr. Crabb could not find it and the officers feel assured that Jones stole the entire amount Jones told the officers where $14 could be found. They got it and returned it to Mr. Crabb. Jones lived 'with Edna Wheat, a negress at 607 Tyler. He was paroled from the reformatory at Hutchinson in July after serving 22 months of a seven year sentence on the charge of burglary and grand larceny. He can be sent back to Hutchinson for violat ing his parol, without a trial or any court proceedings whatever, but the officers may hold him and make an effort to send him to the penitentiary.

Had not as sistance arrived at an opportune mo ment, the boy, in all probabilities would have been chewed to pieces by the animals. Mr. Schaffer, who owns the melon patch had granted the boy permission to pick as many melons as he liked, and the boy started for the patch, half a block away. A fev- moments later he heard the boy screaming for help. Arming himself with a pitchfork he started for the patch, knowing that the dogs had been in the habit of fre quenting the place as they had on sev eral occasions threatened to attack him. y After a battle,-- lasting for several minutes, he beat iJie dogs away from the prostrate form of the boy who was then taken to the home of his pa rents. The boy is now under the care of Doctor Schwartz and the father has asked for a warrant for the arrest of Carter for harboring vicious dogs.

Miss Ruth Hamlin, whose engage ment to Mr. Harry Wolff has been an nounced, has chosen a day in the earlv Dart of October for her wedding. i The exact date is not set, but it will be during the first week of next I month. It will be an evening wedding at the home of the bride s aunt, Mrs. Carrie Wilson, 1249 Harrison street, and only relatives of the young people will be guests. The traveler to other lands has been an object of interest from the 1 davs of Marco Polo to the present, in cluding "Washington Irving and Ed Howe. Every summer people go over by the boat load, but many of them come back remembering Paris as the place where they bought a pair of gloves, and London as the town where it rained, while others merely thresh over old straw. A Topeka woman who has just returned from abroad, and who really saw about everything that lay in the scope of her journey, is Mrs. A. B. Jetmore. She was accompanied I by her son, Mr. DeForrest Jetmore of New York, and although Mrs. Jetmore i is quite an elderly woman a great I grandmother, in fact, there was no I place of historic or scenic interest that she did not see. Youth and age were at one with each other, and they were willing to dwell for the enchant ed moment in any vantage of the past that gave them shelter. They made the trip over on the Carpathia, made famous by its rescue of the Titanic victims, and one of the heroes of that disaster, the captain of the Carpathia, made his last voyage on this trip. In London Mrs. Jetmore and her son met "Old Bunny," known to all patrons of the motion picture shows. He had an engagement at a London theater and he and the Jet- mores lived at the same hotel. Mr Jetmore had known him in New York. They met him again in Ireland when they went to see the Blarney stone where the actor was photographed in all attitudes involved in the osculatory feat which travelers to the famous stone usually try to accomplish. In Vienna they visited the glass making establishment, and watched the. work of the lace makers in Venice and Brussels. A young man from New York, who met them on ship board and traveled with them in Germany and Holland, had not heard of the foreign custom of using 'light feather beds for cover ing, and complained that he had to make his bed over every night because the tupid maid always forgot and ieft the feather mattress outside, and then he nearly froze for lack of quilts. Mrs. Jetmore has a good many rela tives in New York ana visited them on her return to the states. She at tended a dinner given by her daughter, Mrs. Sam Gardenhire. announcing the engagement of Miss Marie Gardenhire to Mr. Walter Myers, both of whom formerly lived in Topeka. and whose engagement was announced here the latter part of August. The wedding will take place Saturday, September 28. and Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Marburg, who have been in New York this sum mer, will remain for the event. Topeka people who attended the Y. W. C. A. conference in Cascade, Colo rado, this summer, were informally entertained at a dinner party Monday by Mrs. A. A. Godard and Mrs. D. L. McEachron at Mrs. Godard's home. Mrs. Lester McLean of Denver, Colo rado, w ho is visiting Miss Bernice Ful ler, was an out of town guest. Miss Ora Mae McMillan, who will go to Manhattan to take the domestic sci ence course: Miss Bernice Fuller, who will do association work in Indian apolis, Indiana, this year, and Miss Bertha Rowles, who will leave Friday for New York to take a course in the Y. W. C. A. national training school, were also guests. Others who were, present were: Mrs. F. K. Sanders, Miss Mary Kerr, Miss Isabel Mills, Miss Ruth Bauer, Miss Grace Gaines, Miss Josephine Tice.

Thus early in the rushing season the rushers and one I rushee have already run amuck. The rival camps are set by the ears over I a broken pledge, and the girls of both both sororities are more than i interested spectators. The young man in the case has lately come to Topeka j from out of town and entered Wash burn. He was looked upon as a "catch," and both the Kappas and 1 the Phi Delts set out their hook and lin-e with their most tempting bait. A cursory survey and a nibble or two i of the tidbits offered him decided the Kappa bait was his choice, but when the reel was wound up the catch was gone, flopped to the nets of the rival fishers. There was something stir ring, and the cauldron is still bub bling. A lot of the girls have been told the story, but it is likely to make little difference in the end; for the young man is said to be a winner, and that is an attraction that cares "noth ing for fraternity affiliations," as a settled-down- married man who has lived through all the stages of the game, puts it. Mr. and Mrs. George Lerrigo, who have been doing missionary work in China since they left Topeka about j three years ago, made a summer trip to ine riiiiippine iaicmu. mc mc now stationed at Canton, China, and have been there all through the war, experiencing the excitement incident to a great revolution. In the Philippines they met a Kan sas boy, whom a number of Topeka people are interested in. Mr. Ray Kiene,who graduated from the ag ricultural school, Manhattan, and went out to the islands a little over a year ago, has been promoted to the charge of the schools in the Island of Cebu.

Rather than live in a house painted blue, it is said, Mrs. Sadie McDonald, aged 30, com mitted suieida by drinking carbolic acid. She died within an hour. Mc Donald, who is the proprietor of the Blue Front cafe, thought it a happy idea to paint the front in blue, letter it with the sign, "Leave your blues on the outside with the paint." Neighbors declare that Mrs. McDon ald had frequently said that she would kill herself unless the house was re painted some other color. The Mc Donald residence is located above the cafe.

Madge Road Will Abandon Espee Connections.' but he declined to leave St. Louis There is little doubt that the policy of the chief executive officer ol the Wa bash will be to remain with that pro perty and see it through the process of reorganization and on a firm finan cial footing- again before considering personal offers from other companies TO TAP MIMING REGIONS Eyentually Build tew Xne Through to Coast. Other Items of General Interest In Traffic World. San Bernardino, Cal., Sept. 18, Al though the El Paso Southwestern extension will be completed -Into Tucson within sixteen days, it Is not believed the line can be finished into Phoenix by November 1, thardate-on which the Rock Island. originallS ad planned to enter into its. new traffic arrangement with the Santa -Fe for running trains into San Bernardino. The road will be pushed as rapidly as possible, and when completed into Phoenix, Rock Island through trains will reach San Bernardino via the Santa Fe instead of the Southern Pa cific. The Tucson extension does not con tinue from Benson, which is tapped by a spur line, now the. terminus for the t -1 i e Cmithniafltprn trains west j I jrtxayr v from El Paso. Instead, the line runs from Land, ten miles of Fairbank, crossing the Southern Pacific twice be tween Fairbank and Tucson, and en tering Tucson south of the Southern Pacific station. ew Arrangement In West. Railroad men are reticent as to the policy of the Rock Island regarding its California extension. Arrangements are said to be completed with the Santa Fe respecting the operation of the Rock Island trains via Vickenburg and Parker into San Bernardino cov ering a period regarded by Rock Island officials as necessary to build that road through to the coast. Men familiar with the situation say the Rock Island Is likely to take the survey north of the Ealton sea region and through the new untapped mining and ranch country between Beaumont and the Hassayampa. The policy of the Rock Island management favors invading mining country. In the southwest it Is already known as a mineral road, and by building between Phoenix and San Bernardino consider ably south of the Santa Fe's Parker cutoff and north of the Southern Pa cific the Rock Island will have its own territory in that region and yet have a direct coast line.

Lovett, chairman of the Harriman rail roads boards, returned to his office here after a trip through the west that began on August 9. He came back greatly impressed with what he had seen and enthusiastic over busi ness and the crops. "I have never known crop conditions in the west to be better." he said. "I don't see how they could be better. Business is for that reason unusually fine and the outlook excellent." Judge Lovett denied a report that ttie Harriman lines had changed their sys tem of operation, departing from the Harriman traditions, in order to be in a safe position if the supreme court rendered an adverse decision in the Union Pacific-Southern Pacific merger suit. They had made no changes, he said, since last October. "We don't expect to lose the case," he added. "We' ought not to lose it." XO IIAXD CARS OX LEHIGH.

Mr. Garrett in his earlier career was general superintendent oi the St. Louis Terminal and superin tendent of the Wabash. The chief own ers of the Seaboard for some time pasl have been anxious to secure the ser vices of a high-grade operating execu tive as president, and it is known that the position was tendered Gen eral Manager Henry Miller of the Wa bash, but he declined it on the ground that he did not desire to leave St. Louis. The offer was very attractive, hut the Wabash manager nevertheless would not consider it. He was like wise offered the presidency of the Nor folk Southern and he turned that proposition down on the same ground Three years ago President Willard of the Baltimore and Ohio offered Mr. Miller the operating vice presidency of that system at a very high salary, Road Adopts Motor Cars to Take Place of Man-Power.

SAVE BY WASHING COAL. jh UiselufelPiiFe 4AW Hi8DnfyBakingPo;vf!erineda kfe Washed Fuel Worth lVz7c More Than Dirty Coal. University of Kansas, Sept. 18. Perfection of a system of washing coal to remove foreign substances which will mean an annual saving of $5,000 to the state mine alone was an nounced today by Prof. C. M. Young of the mining engineering department. Experiments carried on over a period of six months showed that ov crushing the coal and removing 20 per cent of the refuse, 50 per cent of the sulphur and 50 per cent of the ash were carried away, while 90 per cent of the fuel value of the coal remained. "I feel quite confident that when working on a large scale we could save more than this 90 per cent of the fuel value," declared Prof. Young. "By using our method, a ton of washe.l coal would be worth 12 per cent more than a ton of unwashed coal. To illustrate how economical this plun would nrove. the saving In freight and haulage on the 7000 tons that the University of Kansas uses during the year would be 778 tons at Jl.Oo or $816.90. Additional saving in break ing coal, removing ash and economy in repairs will bring this total up to $1,000. "The total amount shipped from the Lansing mine is about 37.000 tons which would make the annual saving at least $5,000. The cost of instal ling a washing plant would approxi mate $25,000 so that the improvement would soon pay for itself." The nrocess for the coal-wasning used by the university expert is based on the fact that pyrite and shale, be ing heavier than coal, will fall faster through water than the coal. The coal is collected in a bin while the refuse is allowed to run out into the dump DID FLAMES KILL HIM? KANSAS GOSSIP. Veteran Dies of Injuries. Leavenworth-, Kan.,' Sept. 18.
