MISRULED KANSAS.
Affairs in the Populist Hotbed as
Viewed by an Associate Justice
of the Supreme Court.

TOPEKA, Kan, Aug. 5.-The Republi-
can state central committee has sprung
the political sensation of the campaign,
1t is letter written by Associate JUS
tice Stephen H. Allen, of the supreme
court to Lieutenant Governor Psrcy
Daniels. bearing date of May 49, just
before the Populist State convention.
The letter says:
1t seems to be generally conceded tha
the drift Of sentiment is all in favor of the
denomination of Governor Lewelling and
that Of the other state officers. You know
there has bean much talk about the ad-
ministration Of affairs in the larger cities.
Within the past few days l have learned,
not from the enemies but from the friends
of the administration, of circumstances
showing that the administration of affairs
in some If not all cities Of the first class
is thoroughly corrupt, and that to the
knowledge at least OF the governor l have
also been told Of circumstances which
tended very strongly to indicate that this
condition OF affairs meets with his sanction.
| cannot by letter undertake to put to-
gether the various things that l have
learned without going out OF my way
to do SO, nor do | wish at present to name
my authorities.
In fact, very much prefer not to place
myself in the attitude Of the accuser OF
anybody. and what l wish to suggest to
you, and wish all people could know, is
that very serious charges are now made
and that during the campaign We shall
unQuestionably have them to face. 1t is an
open secret that the prohibitory law has
not bser enforced in the larger cities. You
know am not, to draw it mildly, Pro-
hibition crank, yet it is very easy for me
to see how readily corrupt practices be-
come associated with systematic disre-
gard and violation Of law. Our opponents
in the campaign can start out
with the clear and admitted propo-
sition that the prohibltory law has been
generally disregSrded in the larger cities.
l fear also that they can easily show sys-
tematic Doodling by the police department.

these practices. Most of all, dread pos

e1PIME was called in the seventh
inning of the Chicago
nati base ball game this after
u noon at the West Side park by
tho cry of fire, followed by scenes never
before witnessed at u sporting event in
this city, Curiosity to see the fire led
more that 1, 900 spectators to rush into
danger and in their frantic efforts to
extricate themselves from their peril
Gus positions they became panic
stricken.
They found themselves hemmed in
by fire on one side and high barbed
wire fence on the other, erected to kosp
the people from encroaching on the
diamond. The exits were few and small,
and although other means OF esGaps
were provided by the quick action of
players Ryan and Wilmot Of the local
team. aud President Hart, the impsriled
and fear craz5d crowd backed against
the bar bed wire fencing. Their mad
rush to get away from the advancing
flames resulted in the injury Of scores.

ARUsH AND PANIC.
The breaking out of the fire caused
general rush of the people IN that part
of the grounds to the top OF the stand
to look at the flames. In few miu-
utes they realized the danger Of their
position aud broke for the mar.
row exits, which had already filled
with smoke. The spectators who
were in tho grand stand and on the
bleachsrs were at a safe distance from
the fire and got away into the field
without any mishsp, The woodwork
Of the stand nbd the piles Of paper and
other rubbish thrown around provided
fuel for the flames, which gained on
the imprisoned men and women befoIe
they knew it.
All was confusion in an instant
among the occupants Of the flaming
wooden structure Women acrenmed
in their fright and men got jamm d
against the sharp fences, The exits
might as well not have been there Hand,
faces, limbs and clothing were cut and
torn by the sCrambling mass Of
humanity in trying to force pas
sage through the wire strands
or over them. The fence would
not give way. but Ryan and Wiimot
made a gap in it by using their bats
like blacksmiths. Hundreds escaped
that way. Five minutes after the last
spectator had got out of reach of the
flames every seat was being consumed.
The grounds will be- used tomorrow by
fencing off the burned portion.
The property of the club was dam
aged $l5. 600 before the fire department
extinguisned the flames. A cigar stub
thrown among rubbish started the fire.

1--WE belisys that the unrest among

"Erom an official standpoint there is
no means of determining now whether

that it does exist, and is a menace to
