READY FOR WORK.

The Hon. Rudolph Herring, OF New
York, the sanitary engineer who was EN-
ployed by the council to give plan for
sewering the city, was seen at the Carey
last evening He is very pleasant gentle
man and talks sewer systems quite
fuently but had not learned sufficient data
concerning the city to give any OPINION as
to the system that should be used here
In speaking of general principals he said
latterals of six and eight inches IN
diameter could not do good service even
when flushed with less than fifteen feet
fall per mile. The main sewer could not
be less than four and one-half and five
feet when twenty-four or thirty inches IN
diameter and would have to be flushed.
Concerning the West system he said that
it does not include patent for pumping
but more properly concerns plan for
disposing of the sewage. The system Of
pumping had been used for centuries be
fore any patents had been granted the
West system
Mr. Herring came here direct from At
lanta, where he has been engaged in sim
liar work and says that all the larger and
important cities are beginning TO find out
that good sewerage is Indispensable. As
result they are hunting for the best systems
and plans known to engineering science.
He thought it quite important to get the
proper system and after this was secured
and adopted it could be made OF no use by
bad construction.
Mr.. Herring will spend most of the day
in City Engineer Mulvey's Office secur-
ing data from the different surveys OF the
city. When armed with good supply of
facts he will take a ride over the city and
when ready to give an opinion will proba-
bly, meet the joint committee on sewerage
composed OF committee from the board
Of trade and one from the city council.

CLEVER DETECTIVE WORK.

For some time past Jimmy MCMaran
and one of his most trusted employees
have been engaged upon very knotty
piece of detective work that on Sunday
resulted in very clever solution in their
favor Through their most excellent man
ipulation they succeeded in recovering a
valuable Masonic sash and regalia which
was stolen about a month ago from ".
VI Coulson, of the Central house. The
parties alleged 10 be implicated have been
Swallowed for some time and their move
ments watched with considerable interest
by the detective and his assistant. They are
W. +. Jewell and Nina Poynter. the
former a Midland brakeman, the latter at
one time a domestic employed az the
Central House. The property itself was
discovered IN a valise in JEWELS room
over a week ago, but it was not considered
safe to take il or the owner of the valise as
there might be trouble in fixing upon the
proper parties to the theft.
Sunday evening word was sent 10 Mr.
AIcMahan's Office that Jewell was about to
Ieaye, and Ee instructed Mr.. Coulson 70
have an officer make the arrest imme-
diately. as he could not then get out a
warrant for the suspected person S
arrest Officers Wibking and Burroughs
then came 10 the place where Jewell
was stopping and made his arrest: upon his
person were found the stolen articles. He
was confined in the county Jail and yester-
day when taken before Judge Walker be-
inc unable to give the required 500 was
remanded-
Soon after his incarceration, Detective
McMahan obtained from him a statement
which led TO the arrest Of Miss POINTER
yesterday morning by Constable Rufus
Cone. She denies all completely in the
crimes and even denies ever living IN the
house from which the property was taken
She was brought before Judge Walker
and giving the S6oo bond was released for
the present.
The stolen articles were valued very
highly by Afr. Coalson, as they were given
20 hlGn By 4 friend upon his death bed
They consist Of - SASH and apron richly
wrought with Masonic embIems after a
Mexican design; the square and cross are
of solid silver and set with garne-s and
diamonds.

NOT STOLEN.

Under Sheriff Brown Sunday night
about O'Clock drove down 70 the sheriff's
office and hitched his horse in the alley
east OF the court house. About an hour
afterwards when he went for the animal
he was gone. Believing the rig had been
stolen, he Immediately had instituted a
search and even went SO far as 70 send ont
cards announcing the theft Yesterday
the horse was recovered in the North Law
renee avenue livery stable, where be had
been placed by a gentleman who had
found him wandering about on the
avenue, II appears too. that the rig had
not been stolen, bur that the horse had
broken loose and ran away; as several
persons Sunday evening saw an outfit
answering that Of the missing property
going east on Second az a very lively gait.

ACCOMMODATIONS FOR DELEGATES.

The leading hotels of the city were seen
Yesterday, concerning furnishing accom-
modatisns for those attending the RepUb-
lican state delegate convention. The
Grandolfo viii care Tor one hundred: Man
haitian one hundred: Occidental two hun
dred; Carey two hundred and fifty; Ire
mont one hundred All agreed without
hesitation TO charge no more than regular
rates, and two expressed willingness to
make a slight reduction. This IS said to
be quite an improvement FOR delegates to
state conventions. when they were in the
habit of going to Topeka In
those days the hotels would put
up the prices-pool as it were
on convention occasions and take in the
delegates for extravagant prices. When
questioned concerning prices the hotel
men said they had received letters from
gentlemen expecting to be in attendance
asking for a room saved and invariably
wanting to know how much beyond the
regular price they would charge. The idea
expressed by one seemed funny" How
much more? Why bless their souls, let
them come, and the hotel men of Wichita
will make them think they are gentlemen,
and not fit subjects TO be robbed"
All the hotel men promise TO do their
best to entertain the visitors, and are de
termined that their part of the work shall
give good impression. and that the city
in the future will come IN for a fair divide
of the state conventions.
