Hard Work to Find a Law in Kansas
 City Which VIII Close Saloons on
 Sunday.
 KANSAS C1rY, Mo-, July 29.-The police commissioners are finding 1t very difficult to enforce the Sunday laws. Arrests were first made under an old city ordinance, but it was found to be unconstitutional. Then later city ordinance was tried, but Police Judge Roland, who has jurisdiction over such cases, made the penalty only nominal. Arrests were made under the Downing law, which was in tended to be very severe, but the law proved to be ineffective. The police commissioners finally found a city law which is nearly like the Downing law with the exception that it makes 1. obligatory upon the police judge to revoke the license where the accused is found guilty. Word was given out that arrests would be made yesterday under the latter law. The severe penalty caused great many saloons to close. The down town saloons were all closed. In the outlying precincts the police arrested seven saloon keepers.

CLOSED BY THE FAILURE.

Mills That Have Temporarily Closed
 Their Doors on Account of she Lewis
 Brothers Failure.
 PHILADELPHIA, July 29.-G. P. Dennis, proprietor of the Yeadon mills in Chester and the Todmorden mills, Bancroft's bank, has decided to close these industries in con> sequence of the failure of Lewis Brothers & Co.,, to whom all the goods made at these mills were consigned. The general presump- tion is that the suspension will be brief.
 The worsted mills of Shoppers Brothers, American and Diamond streets, were closed down on Saturday in consequence of the fail ure of Lewis Brothers & Go.
 The firm employed over four hundred hands and manufactured both cotton and woolen goods, but principally worsteds. Members of the firm have announced that nc assignment has been made and that the clos ing of the mills is only temporary. They do not desire to continue their manufacturing until Lewis Brothers & Co. make Q statement to the assignee so that the Shoppers may know how they stand.

They Are Banquetted at Lonasn-mr Lincoln Responds 60 n Toast.
 LONDON. July 30.-The Ancient and Honor. able Artillery company gave a banquet to. night in honor of the Massachusetts rihemen, Major Jones presided. MT. Lincoln, the American minister, General Higginson and Sir Robert Morier were among the guests. Major Durrant proposed toast to the team to which Major Frost made happy response.
 Mir. Lincoln replying to a toast to the President of the United States dwelt upon the absence of 8 military element in Ameri- ca. The Americans, he said, had learned to do without large armies. A stranger travel ing from New York to San Francisco and thence to New Orleans and Montreal would learn to be more surprised at the presence of soldier than at the sight of that remarkable bird called "adjutant."
 Died While Temporarily Insane.
 LOWELL, Mass, July 29.-A man em- ployed in the weave room of the Merrimac Mill suddenly developed symptoms of tenn porary insanity about five o'clock this after noon, and it required the efforts of several men to get him to the police station. On ar- rival there he fell on the floor apparently in fit, and his condition showed that he could not last long though he was large, power- fully built middle-aged man. Dr. Kicker on nasty examination thought the symptoms were those of beliadonna poisoning and or- dered him to the hospital. The man died there about 7:30. Dr. Pillsbury considers it case of sunstroke, though the man had been indoors all the afternoon. He had just come to work at noon. His name had not been obtained. and as he never recovered con- sciousness his identity is mystery. He must have have been exposed to the sun in the forenoon if at all

CONCERNING COUNCIL MATTERS.

Mr.. Healey: ''There seems to be gen.
eral misunderstanding on the part of the
public regarding the street railway fran
chise. AS matter of fact the council by
its action has not released the company
from any of its obligations in regard TO
paving. The ordinance passed is simply
giving the company the right to construct
an overhead wire system of electric road
and is the fullfillment of a promise that
was made when this privilege was denied
them two years ago. At that time
it was understood that whenever any COM
Dany was permitted TO use the overhead
wire system that like privilege should
be granted to them. Ali their obligations
remain as they were under the old fran
chise.
Mr.. Carson-The people seem to be
bowling because the council passed an ap-
preparation ordinance over the mayor veto
allowing the sewer contractors $500 for
sheet piling. The city attorney gave it as
his opinion that the evidence in the case
would be such that the city would lose in
a lawsuit and the mayor stated
the object of the veto was
to cause more investigation and that his
feelings would not be hurt at all if his
veto was disregarded by the council. AS
regards the railway franchise | tried faith
fully to get the company to amend the
paving clause in the old franchise. which
is claimed by some TO be ambiguous, but
Messrs. Davidson and Campbell said it
could not be done without affecting the
monetary value of the bonds already sold.
| was also satisfied that the electric road
would never be built If the value OF the
old ordinance was in any way impaired.
Mr.. Mercer-The matter of the street
railway franchise looked like this to me,
mule power and no paving or electric
power and no surety of paving but at
least prospect.
Mr.. J. O. Davidson-The Street Railway
company would be unable to build the
electric road if the old franchise under
which some bonds have been already
placed was altered. l am in favor of the
company paving as soon as they can get
the money to do ii with.
Mr. B. H. Campbell-There is now no
disposition on the part of the
railway company to treat the city unfairly
in the matter of paving. Self-interesl
would cause the company to satisfy the
public on this matter.
Mayor Clement-if the street railway
passes into the hands of outside parties
not interested in Wichita | am afraid of
the result of the paving option in the old
franchise. If, however the same parties
continue TO operate it, it is only reasonable
to suppose that their interest in the city's
welfare would induce them TO put proper
construction on the terms of the ordi-
nance

A SMALL EIRE.

About o'clock last evening an alarm of
fire was turned in. The department an
swering promptly it was found that the
blaze was in the furniture store of Ken
dali & Morrison, on East Douglas avenue.
Officer Deeds said that he saw the fire in
the rear end of the store and ran to turn in
the alarm. The fire started in box of
waste lying near the bottom of the eleva-
tor shaft and the shaft acting
as hue soon drew the fire
to the second floor. The fire
boys soon had the fire under their control
with but slight loss.
Mr.. Kendall said he had no idea of the
manner in which the fire originated but
the supposition is that a match was
thrown among the refuse near the elevator
which started a slow fire.
The firm carry stock of 49, 900 with an
insurance of SS,0O0 The loss will not
amount to over Sl,00a

THE STREET RAILWAY FRANCHISE.

The action OF the city council at it's
Monday nights meeting in granting the
City Street Railway company the priyil-
eye of substituting electricity for horse
power in propelling its cars and of erect
ing posts upon which to string its over
head wires III the middle of the street or
between its tracks, no doubt meets with
the appreciation of a majority Of the citi-
zens, taxpayers and property owners Of
the city 10 that extent; but the additional
privilege Of paving the portion OF the
street covered by the company's franchise
to correspond with the balance of the
street in the kind of material and charac-
ter Of construction, in a certain con-
tingency, or leave it unpaved, according
to the fancy or convenience of the com
pany, is extraordinary to say the least,
and is as universally criticised, opposed
and condemned by the same citizens. In
passing the ordinance in that shape the
council certainly acted inadvisedly as to
the sentiment and wishes Of the citizens
generally. and particularly those who are
Immediately and materially interested.
The city is just on the eve OF beginning
a comprehensive, extensive and conse-
quently expensive system Of street paving,
but if such policy as that contained in
the franchise ordinance IS TO be adopted by
the council and meets with the mayors
approval, the question Of street paving
may as we'll be considered as settled mega
lively. No city worthy the name would
ever engage in such child's play.
For the interest of the city, the railway
company and sll concerned it is hoped the
council will reconsider its Mon
day nights work in this matter
and reconstruct the paving feature of the
ordinance on basis of fairness and JUS
tice to the city. while conserving the in
terests OF the railroad company. 1t is not
too late to do this, and the citizens expect
it, as they certainly have right to. Much
might be said as TO why the matter in its
present shape is unfair, unjust and objec-
tionable, but it is so paipable that it seems
unnecessary to do more than call tbs at
teution OF the council to il, the prevalent
idea being that the members OF that body
who supported The measure rs il passed
acted under misspprehension OF what
the effect Of the franchise thus granted
would be-
