can't see much to it,"
That was what G. A. Pillsbury said
last night about the story in an evening
paper, giving the details of the organlz-
alton of the Spring Wheat Millers' as
sociation. Mr.. Pillsbury further said
that he had nothing more to say than he
had said a few weeks ago. Ne didn't
know anything about the organization.
With the assertion that it would be use
less to try to interview him, he dis
missed the subject, likewise the re-
porter.
Other Minneapolis millers are not
quite so uncommunicative as Mr.. Pills
bury. They admit that such an assoct-
alton as the Spring Wheat Millers' asso-
citation has been formed. They persist
in the same assertion made couple OF
weeks ago that the organization will
have nothing to do with fixing prices.

The association has opened an Office in
Minneapolis, and Harry P. Kennedy is
in charge of it as secretary. The asso-
citation evidently intends to do some
business that will benefit the
milling trade, although all millers
who have been seen insist
that the association will have nothing
of the characteristics of trust, con-
trolling production and governing
prices. 1t would not pay Mr.. Kennedy

promising business if it we're to reap no

A REFORMED BURGLAR.
He Returns Stolen Property and
Writes a Penitent Letter.

Last summer the residence of A. L.
Ankeny and w. r. Guile. at 1909 Laurel
avenue, was entered by burglars and a
number of valuable articles stolen. Ed
wards and Riley, burglars, were sent to
Saltwater for committing the burglary.
Last Wednesday Mr.. Ankeny received
the following letter, accompanied by a
package containing pair OF opera
glasses:
I'D Sir:
''l'm very sorry [ have kept these
glasses so long, and also sorry that L
ever took them in the first place. Won't
you please forgive me? Please get them
re-enameled and | will send you some
money to pay for the same and also in
terest. 1t may be long while before
you get the cash, but I'll send it as soon
as | can. have great many other
things to pay for, which is more than L
figured on when | got theE;. l did not
send these last summer because you de-
scribed your glasses as being gold
trimmed, ETC., but l am positive they
belong to you"
The glasses do not belong to either
Mr.. Ankeny or Mr.. Guile, and they are
at loss to understand why they were
sent to them. The police inspectors are
of the opinion that the man who wrote
the letter is pal of the imprisoned
burglars, who came into possession of
some of the articles stolen and in pen
itent mood sent the glasses to Mr.. An
keny, thinking they belonged TO him.

RuNGE COMES DOWN.
He Is Understood to Be Will
ing to Answer Questions
Now.
Insurance Men and Property
Owners Demand a Broad
investigation.
Jack Mcconnell likely to Lose
His Supervisopship Scalp
Today.
Champion Corbett Knocked
Outside the Ropes by a
Cold.

Chief Runge stated yesterday to a
member of the investigating committee
that he would answer the questions put
to him at the next session. He has come
to the conclusion that he took the wrong
course at the Tuesday night meeting.
and now he AYERS that he is willing to
tell why he discharged the men. 1t is
said he will be allowed to tell his rea-
sons before the committee in executive
session. This is not likely, however,
for it would not be fair to the men dis
charged. Aid. Lackey spoke his mind
freely on the matter yesterday. lie
said that he would be in favor OF recon-
m5nding the resignation of Aid. Wood
ward from the Craftsmanship OF the fire
committee. He could resign with good
grace and stop all this disagreeable
trouble.
The investigating committee, it is
understood is unanimous in the opinion
that, unless the chief answer the -ques-
tons put to him in proper manner. the
council be asked to summarily discharge
him. The council will be asked to vest
the committee with more power. so that
the investigation may be carried into all
the branches of the fire department.
The heaviest property owners and the
insurance men are almost unanimous
in the opinion that the committee should
be given more scope and empowered to
inquire into the general condition of the
fire department. Those who, IN the
beginning, deplored so much fuss
about what appeared, on their
face, to be trivial matters, now, almost
without exception, say, "Well, nope
this committee will go to the bottom OF
all the allegations, now that 1t has be-
gun" For the committee to stop where
it is, or to go no further than to inquire
into the reasons for the discharge OF
ten or a dozen men Will be, it is argued,
to make of the investigation a farce. In
the discussion through the newspapers
and by individuals, the fire department
question has already assumed proper
tions not bounded by the why
or wherefore a few members
have been discharged. Serious
allegations have been made against
the efficiency Of the department
and statements have been made which,
if true, demonstrate that discipline IN
the department is not what it should be.
The insurance underwriters who nave
interested themselves in this lnyestlga-
ton claim that they have unearthed as
founding facts. lhey are Wiling 10
furnish this information to the lnVestl-
eating committee. They take the
ground that a WhiteWashing report Will
do the city serious damage, lnasmuch
as the committee has not yet probed
into active conditions in the fire depart
ment. Ii the investigating committee
go to the bottom of all fire department
affairs and then report on exoneration
of the fire department management, no
one will have aught to complain of. for
such report will be based Oh investi-
CATION. But such investigation must be
made, it is generally conceded, OF the
sQuabble of the last two months Will be
prolonged indefinitely.

WAITING A DECISION.
Arguments Concluded in the Case
Involving the Legality of the
Kansas Houses.
Resolution Passes the PoDulist
House Removing the Capital
to Kanopolis.

TOPEKA. Kan, Feb. 23.-Arguments
in the Gum habeas corpus case were
concluded tonight, ana the case has
gone to the court. Both sides are eX-
pecting a decision tomorrow. The Pop
ulists are working day and night, rush
ing bills through, and if the decision Of
the court is adverse to them they will
adjourn within an hour after itis-made.
There is general belief that Lewelling
has made up his mind to recognize the
Republican house if the court decides
in its favor, and that he will at once call
an extra session. Last night the SEN
ate adopted q resolution declar
ing that the supreme court has
no. Jurisdiction in the house mud
die: that the state constitution provides
that leach house shall 6e the judge of
it's election returns and qualifications of
its own members" aud that the courts
| action in assuming authority to take up
the case is unWarranted. The RepuD-
licanS of the senate did all III their
power to prevent the passage of the
resolution, but the PopuliSts prevailed
by reason of numbers.
The DunSmore house yesterday after
noon removed" the state capital to
Kanopolis in exactly two minutes. The
resolution was offered by Mr.. Hare, the
contestant member" from Kiowa, at
80 p. m.. and at 81 it had received
the sanction of the house, although
some members who were opposed
to it afterward protested, say
ing the resolution was railroad
ed through with indecent haste.
The resolution reciteS that the
capital is now located near the eastern
border; that western counties have been
disfranchised by Republican rule for
the purpose of holding the capital at
Topeka; that the conduct of the citizens
of Topeka during the late war" was In
defiance of the wishes of the people of
the state, and that the Kanopois people
have offered to duplicate the recent
state house without expense to the state;
declares that as soon as practicable,
lawful steps shall be taken to remove
the capital to that city.
j. W. Ady, who was elected, or
rather declared elected, United States
senator by the Republicans last month,
was in town last night in consultation
with the Republicans who are manipu-
lating the senatorial boom Of b. 2.
Waggener Dem). He gave it out that
he did not like the plan to swap horses
in the middle of the stream. but the fact
that he made no fuss to the Republican
managers gives rise to the belief that
he will aid the Waggener boom in every
way he can.

IN The Tolls AGAIN.
Stephen C. Broadwell, a Noto-
rious EX-Convict, Arrest
ed in New York.
Cincinnati and Detroit Banks
the Sufferers by His
Operations.
He Is Sick, However, With
Doubtful Chances Of Re-
cOVery.
The Banks We're Taken In
With Skillfully Raised
Drafts.

New YORK, Feb. 23.-Inspector Nc
Laughlin has arrested Stephen G..
Broadwell. an ex-convlct, famous coun-
terfeiter and notorious bank swindler.
Broadwell's latest swindling operations
were in Cincinnati and Detroit, where
the leading banks were heavy losers.
The prisoner had been living quietly In
this city, at No. 364 West Twenty-third
street, with his daughter. The police
of this city have been looking for him
some time, having been asked to do so
by the Cincinnati and Detroit authorl-
ties. warrants having been issued in
these places for his arrest. Last week
Broadwell was located,a ,and Oh Monday he
was arrested by detectives. Broadwell,
who is sixty years old, was found to be
very sick. He said he had not left his
bed for three months. The detectives
went to jefferson Market police court
yesterday and obtained commitment
from Justice White, under which Broad
we'll was taken to Bellevue hospital.
They said that his chances of recovery
are doubtful. The specific
Charges Against BrOadweII
are that on Feb. 13, 1892, he swindled
the Third National Bank of Cincinnati
out of 81, ,7S2, the First National Bank
of Cincinnati out of $1,6S3, and the Ger
man National Bank of Cincinnati out Of
S1,6S4: that on May IA, 1892, he de-
frauded the Third National Bank of
Detroit out of $1,7S2. and the City Say
ingS Bank of Detroit out of 81, ,4S5.
Broadwell'S method in all these cases
was the same. He bought draft pay
able to himself under the name of
Thomas Hunt in some bank in another
city for small amount, and then skill
fully raised the punches to make the
draft read for large amount. A draft
of S19 we would raise to S1,S00; SIT to
$1,700 and SO on. So sklllful was his
work that tine money was paid over
without question and the fraud only
discovered when the payment of the
draft to the issuing bank was
made. Broadwell disappeared i'm
mediately after these latest Op-
erations. The Detroit and Cincinnati
banks offered a reward of $4,000 for his
capture. When Inspector Mclaughlin
located Broadwell he sent word to Gin
cinnati. and yesterday three paying
stelIers came to this city and fully iden-
titled the swindler. Tho tellers were
Louis E. Van Austol, of the Third
National bank; George Koehler, of the
First National bank. and Gustav l..
Steiler, of The German National bank.

Business Men Object to Closing
Stores-AIoney Needed. .-
The fact that. in some of the cities
where B. Fay Mills has conducted re-
yival services, the business men have
closed their stores III the middle of the
week for the benefit of the revival meet
lngs is taken as an indication that
such move may be attempted in Mill
neapols The representative business
men of the city, the retailers especially,
have already expressed their opinions
on the subject. Without reservation,
they are opposed to such action. A few
of them say they would fall in line If
all other houses were to do it, but the
majority of them say no emphatically.
The executive committee in charge OF
the Mills meeting swants money. Only
$4,000, half the amount originally sub
scribed, has been paid in. The COM
mittee wants to lay aside $1,000 as re-
serve fund to pay for the hail. SO they
need ready money badly. In the begin
ming each denomination was assessed
$4,000. They have responded with the
following amounts: Baptists, $50;
Methodists. S1,511; Presbyterians, ST.
762.5O: gationalists, S1,991; other
churches. $3.50. The special committee
on finance will do its best to get in all
that has been pledged and as much
more as possible. The committee fig
ures that it will need 1880 above the
original estimated amount, $4,000.

Confession Of the Paying Teller
of Delaware Bank.

Confession of the Paying Teller
of a Delaware Bank.
WILMINGTON, Feb. 23.-Peter T. E.
Smith, paying teller of the First Ma
tional bank Of this city, is self-con-
fessed embezzler to the amount of S55.-
900, and he is now in charge of the
United States marshal and will be
given hearing tomorrow morning. j.
2. Winchester, who became president
of the bank in November last, had been
trying for long time to have Smith
make a balance sheet, but the teller
kept poStponing the work. Last Satur-
day two other clerks were directed
to make the sheet, which they
did on Sunday, reporting the
shortage on Monday. Today Smith
sent for Mrs. Winchester and confessed
his crime. He then went and delivered
himself to the United States marshal.
Smith pleads that the money was spent
on his family. His method was to
take cancelled checks from tine safe,
put them on a spindle through the
old cancellation holes and pocket
the amount of the check, the last pay
ment not being charged against the de-
positors. Bank Examiner Stone says
the bank is solid and fully able to pay
depostorS every cent, over half of the
surplus of S127,000 remaining intact.
Smiths confession agrees With the re-
suit obtained in making the balance
sheet. He had been taking money for
fifteen years.

DESPERATE BURGLARS.
They Institute a Reign Of Terror
in the Flour City.

IN CnG SiIys
A burglar broke into the residence of
John Anderson, at the corner Of Twenty
fifth avenue south and TWenty-siXth
street, early yesterday morning. Mrs.
Anderson was awakened by hearing
some one move about the bed room, and
called out to ascertain who it was. The
only reply she received was shot from
a revolver, the bullet crashing into the
board of the bed directly over her
head. Her husband hastily dressed
himself and instituted search.
but the burglar had escaped. Anderson
found Officer Hovelsrud on his beat and
the two tracked the burglar to Mime
haha. Here he was overhauled and ar
rested by HovelSrud, who locked him up
at the south station. When arrested he
had on new overcOat which, it was
discovered, belonged to Theodore Han
son. The burglar gave his name as Ed
Smith. and yesterday morning he was
arraigned in the police court On the
triple charge of assault in the second
degree, burglary and grand larceny.
He was bound over to the grand jury in
$1,000 bail.
Two men attempted to secure an en-
trance into the residence of j. G. Pouch
er, the driver of the workhouse wagon,
at 1915 Eleventh avenue southeast.
Poucher was at the workhouse, and his
wife was alone in the house. About 2
o'clock yesterday morning two men
came to the door and demanded admit
tance. In reply to Mrs. Poucher's in
quiry as to who they were, they replied
they were police officers with war
rant for Poucher's arrest. But Mrs.
Poucher did not believe such gauzy
story, and refused to open the door.
She procured shotgun, and stationed
herself near the door. determined to
dispute their entrance. After a short
consultation the men went away. 1t is
thought they were discharged work
