 tn Great Csufusion,

KANSAS CITr, Mo, January 20.--The dc. cisiou Of tho State Supreme Court regard log the llegality Of the extension of the city limits places Kansas City in a peculiar position It is not known now who arc the city officials, and 1t is also doubt whether the contracts which have been made by the city since the extension ordinance was voted on are void or not The decision re- duces the population of the city about l., 900 and throws every department of the city into turmoil. None of the officials know whether they are city officers or not and the reeult is that suits innumerabc will at once be brought to nnd the exact state of affairs.
 Late this afternoon ex Auditor Winram began proceedings b oust the present Auditor and 1t is understood that the ex- Police Judge will do likewise The Mayor will probably be busted and in fact all legislation which has been done by tho City Council for the past year " Il be null and void As the matter is examined into, it becomes worse than was heretofore imagined and there is no telling where it will end. As 1t now stands, tue city is virtually in chaos, and the regular Council meeting which was to have been held this evening, has been postponed until such timo as the officials can find out exactly where they stand
 Mayor Holmes said to-day: This is certainly one of the darkest days in the history of this city The situation Is most serious The decision will throw the city Into 8 situation from which 1t will take years to recover. An immense amount of money expended for improvements in the annexed districts becomes a total loss, and all persons residing in these districts who have paid money in the city treasury will be entitled to recover it again. That means litigation and lots of it, l cannot sec that tho decision will vacate any city offices, excepting those of the councilmen from the annexed wards. Of course, they arc no longer eligible 10 serve"
