CLYDE Mattox Recaptured.

Conductor S. F. Hayden, of the Missouri
Pacific, arrived in Fort Scott and related
the capture of Clyde Mattox on his train at
Yates Center.
He boarded Hayden's train at ElDorado,
after 1t had started, and paid cash fare to
this city. He took a sleep in the smoker
and said he was on his way to Springfield,
No., but further than this would not talk.
Conductor Hayden called in a passenger
named Pritchard, who had just finished a
three days attendance at Mattox's trial in
Wichita, where he had paid close attention
to the prisoner and knew his every feature,
and he swore positively that the strange pas
senger was the convict. At the first station
Hayden telegraphed Sheriff Royse at Wichita,
who in turn telegraphed the sheriff at
Yates Center to arrest and hold the man.
The sheriff boarded the train and ar.
rested him. He made no resistance, but
stoutly denied his guilt. He was searched
and a new Smith & Wesson, 80 caliber re-
volver was found in his inside vest pocket.
He claimed to be member of the "Order
of Railway photographers" but could neither
answer their salute nor work the key when
taken to the depot. He was very cool and
showed no signs of nervousness. Late in
formation this evening states positively that
he is the right man and that Conductor Hay.

1t Was a General Rain.

R. B. Gemmel, superintendent of tele-
graph, received reports from all over the
Santa Fe, indicating that the rain had been
general. It extended over as far as Marco
line, Mo-, and west as far as Dodge City,
where it took the form of light snow. Be-
yond that point it was colder and there was
neither rain nor snow.
In what the Santa Fe calls the "Chanute
district" the rain fell all day long. This
was in Neosho, Allen, Wilson and Woodson
counties. At Emporia and neighboring
counties the day was about the same as in
Topeka. At Arkansas City there was a
steady rain all day. This extended to We'll
lington. In Stafford and Edwards counties
there was SLOW, and a little rain. From
Nickerson west to Larned there was good
rain, following a snow in the morning.
There was light rain at Abilene, and snow
and rain at ElDorado.
The Rock Island received reports from all
over the southwest stating that the rain had
been general. Very little fell on the Rock
Islands northern Kansas line, however.

Hungry Women and Girls.

CHICAGO, January 1.-THE extent of the
restitution among the unemployed women
of Chicago is just beginning to be realized
by those who have undertaken the work OF
supplying their needs. The Chicago Wom-
ems club recently established an Emergency
association, whose sole duty it should be to
relieve homeless and starving women. The
association has opened quarters. The doors
were not to have opened until 10 o'clock, but
at 8 the corridors of the building were packed
with women and girls. Each applicant was
given numbered card and given chance
to state her case. Those who were evidently
sick or enfeebled by age were attended to
Grst.
Many of the stories were very ritiful, and
The urgent cases were given immediate at
sention.
'On account of the great number who are
actually suffering for bread" said one of the
ladies in charge, 1--WE can consider only the
extreme cases."

nan McCreary, of the house committee on
soreign affairs, and Representative Holman,
Dem, Ind.) conferred as to the proposition
which would be submitted to congress for
he solution of the Hawaiian problem.
After the talk Mr.. McCreary said: "The
'olution to the question will undoubtedly be
eady to submit to the house before Janu-
Try 49," Representative Holman said: 81

members of the foreign affairs committee

S2reckles-Cronwall Faction Stirring On
Strife-Willis Tries to Scare Dole
Wanted to Expunge His
Restoration Record.

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, January 22.-The
steamer Monowai brings news from Homo
lulu dated January IL.
Rumors of an expected riotous uprising
have been prevalent recently. In an inter-
view with Marshal Hitchcock that officer
said: ''The government is fully prepared to
meet any outbreak either here or on the
other islands. The royalists have threatened
30 long that the royal standard would be
raised on some of the islands that We have
prepared to squelch any uprising that may
be made either through irresponsible parties
or through the influence of the Spreckles-
Cronwall faction.
Just previous to the sailing of the Monwai
sensational rumor was traced to an au-
thoritatiye source, that q few days after
President Dole's reply was delivered to Min
lister Willis and before details of Willis de-
mand and Dole's reply had been made pub
Tic, Willis called upon Dole and endeavored
co persuade him to return all of his (Willls')
correspondence on the subject of restoration
and to expunge from the records Dole's re-
ply and everything else pertaining to the
subject. and to maintain absolute secrecy
about the whole transaction. Dole fatty re-
fused to enter into such plan and it is said
Willis then attempted to force Dole to act
according to his wishes and threatened to
take the American man-of-war out of the
harbor and practically break off diplomatic
relations between the United States and
HAWAII. Dole still refused to enter into the
project and Willis attempt to nullify his re-
storation policy failed.

The snow Divorce Suit.

OTTAWA KAN, January 20.-Judge A. W.
Benson surprised the attorneys in the case
of E. Fl. Snow vs.. Jennette Snow by calling
for an explanation of the common newspa-
per report that Mrs. Snow was to receive
5000 in case she made no defense. He de-
clned to further consider the case until a
satisfactory explanation was made.
Attorneys for both parties asserted that
no such agreement had been made, and de-
nounced the newspapers that had such re-
ports in severe language.
The Judge announced his decision grant
ing to E. 81. Snow a divorce on the ground
of extreme cruelty. He also approved the
settlement of the division of property pre-
viously made giving to Mrs Jennette Snow
5000 In money and other property.

Villas Condemns the A. p. A.

MILWAUKEE, WIS, January EX-SENATOR
Villas declares the A. p. A. a menace to the
republic and blow at religious liberty. He
Iays every citizen should be opposed to its
principles, and continues:
ITO enter a secret political society, to
submit ones political freedom to the behest
If its authorities, unknown to the laws,
means the citizens surrender of the glory of
manhood by seIf-enslavement. Even if
lone with good purpose the method is de-
oaslng and degrading, for it is that of a
criminal. 1t seeks to strike an unseen blow
which shall do injury to ones fellow men.
Il is the old method of iniquity and tyranny
n governments and, in the experience of re-
publics, has been always characteristic of
plots against the rights of particular class
defined by race, by religion or some other
line, that justice and humanity could not
put condemn.

PLAN OF WORK.
House Majority to be Held
Well in Hand.
The Income Tax Section TO be Left for q
Later Decision-n Sugar Tax is
Revived it VIII Tend to Pre-
vent an Income Tax.

WASHINGTON, D. c., January 1.-THE
democratic members of the ways and means
committee had meeting to decide upon the
amendments to be offered. 1t will probably
happen, as in the case of the Mckinley bill,
chat the special order will expire with many
individual amendments pending, but not
voted upon. Tim decision of the democratic
members of the committee to report the IN
come tax and other internal revenue fea-
lures of the committees revenue plan as q
separate measure removes one of the main
dangers to the bill, as the opposition to the
income tax feature was formidable, espe-
cially in the east, and some of it was of such
character that had the proposition been
placed in the bill it would have arrayed
many democratic members against the whole
measure. The fact the proposition is not
included in the bill will, it is thought,
strengthen the attempt to remove the sugar
bounty and substitute in its stead duty of
cent on sugar.
Should this be done it would raise $35, 000,-
300 of revenue and save 100000 of sugar
bounty, and remove the necessity for and
probably kill the income tax proposition
which it is now the purpose of the committee
to present later with the internal revenue
bill. 1t is not believed the attempt to re-
store portion of the duty on coal, iron ore,
lumber and other raw materials placed on
the free list, in the bill, will succeed.

Suit Against Secretary Carlisle.

Master Workman Sovereign says: "If the
secretary of the treasury is compelled by
the law to keep in the national treasury
S100, OOO, 900 in gold he violated the law when
he reduced the amount below the required
sum and should be impeached if he is not
reserve, or any specific sum, his recent offer
to sell $50, 100 of bonds under the act
of January IA, 1875, is without authority and
in violation of the law. If he has authority
to sell bonds for the purpose of keeping in
tact the 500, 600 gold reserve, then his
proposition to sell bonds for excess of the
deficit in the reserve fund is still without au-
thority of law and is a violation of his oath
of Office.

The New Kansas Mortgage Law.

WICHITA, KAN, January 1s.-The question
whether the mortgage redemption law,
passed by the last Kansas legislature, is con-
stitutional as applied to pre-existing mort
cages, was decided in the United States cir
cult court here. The case was that of Wood
man vs.. Kreus. Judge Williams held that
as to all mortgages made before the passage
of the law of 1893 there is no redemption !;
that such mortgages are governed by the old
law, and he rendered judgment accordingly.
This is the first federal court decision on
this law.
1t is believed by many that the Kansas su-
preme court has given like decision, but it
has not.
The only cases as yet before this court
were where mortgage claims had reached
Judgment before the passage of the new law.
The Kansas supreme court has decided that
the new law cannot effect such cases; but it
has not passed upon any case in which judg-
ment was taken after the new law took effect

His RESIGNATION Desired.

CHICAGO, January 23.-The following reso-
luton was adopted by the National Farmers
alliance at its session here.
WHEREAS, The Hon. j. Sterling Morton,
secretary of agriculture, in An address be-
fore the world congress of agriculture. held
in Chicago, October 16, 1893, was so utterly
oblivious to the dignity of that occasion as
to make it one on which to denounce and
discourage ascension and organization
among farmers, therefore it is as much
the right of farmers to organize them
selves together for common purposes,
not illegal or immoral, as any other
class, if there are advantages in association,
and its universally proves the belief that
there are, it is impossible to see how anyone
can be guilty of the impertinence of denying
the farmer the right to avail himself of those
advantages;
Resolved, That the insinuation that men,
bership in the alliance implies "blind ad-
herence to the teaching of ignorant leaders
and vicious demagogues'' is as untrue as it.
is insulting.
Resolved, That whatever Mr.. Morton may
represent. he does not represent the agricul-
tural interests of the United States, and that,
irrespective of party, we urgently require his
resignation from his political position.

Took . Change of Venue.

WICHITA, January 1s.-Clyde Mattox has
temporarily robbed the gallows by escaping
from Jail. Strange as it may seem, his jail
ers had given the murderer the freedom Of
the Jail instead of placing him in the corri-
dor, and while their backs were turned he
quickly removed an iron bar from the third
story window and dropping to the ground
made good his escape.
All preparation had evidently been made
in anticipation of the conviction. The saw
ing of the iron bar had been accomplished
beforehand and all Mattox had to do was to
tear the lower part loose from the s.onework
and reach ground, where friends were evil
IDENTIFY in waiting to aid him.
The most sanguine never expect to see
MIN taken alive, as he is desperate and will
kill or be killed before submitting to arrest.

SO devotedly for him, disclaims all knowl.

ALicensed saloon a Nuisance.

INDIANAPOLIS, January ga saloon was
built in this city adjoining the residence of
Mrs. Mary Haggard, and duly licensed.
Mrs. Haggard brought suit for damages to
the value of her property by reason of the
presence of the saloon.
The supreme court of the state gives her
the case and damages asked. The court
says:
1.-THE rights of the citizens are not to be
sacrificed because the liquor traffic is regu-
lated by act of the legislature. 1t could not
have been the purpose of the makers of the
liquor license law to authorize an injury to
the property of the citizens. Though the
law licenses the keeping of a saloon, it
cannot confer any right to injure the prop
erty of the citizen. A law cannot authorize
the creation or maintenance of anything
confessedly injurious to any mans property,
unless it is clear that general public bene-
ct, transcendinp the particular injury Is
thereby secured. A saloon that lessons the
value of property is nuisance at law, and
can be abated as a nuisance; and more.
over, the person whose property is injured
by a saloon is entitled to recover from the
keeper damages equal to the injury estab

ToPxxA, January 23.-The failure to secuzg
the usual tax money this winter is proving 3
source of considerable embarrassment 70
some of the counties where the whole tax
levy was made with but small margin. and
the result has been shortage IN some OF the
funds. This is especially true of the school
district funds. In Lyon county the Santa
Fe pays about $14, 900 in taxes, 50 that the
collection this year (unless the court orders
payment by the railroad) will fall short
nearly SD, 600 in the estimated receipts upon
which the county expected to do business.
The railroad has heretofore paid its taxes IN
full in December.
The officials of the Santa Fe are trying to
have their tax payments reduced by compro-
misc, and are still Offering to recommend to
the United States circuit court that an order
be made, if agreeable to the several coun-
ties, that all the taxes be fixed on the valua-
ton OF 1892 and the levy of 1893. This plan
would save the company about $4,000 IN
the whole state. Their reasons for Offering
this compromise are that since 1877 taxes on
all properties other than railroad have bean
reduced and railroad valuations steadily in
creased, and that the Santa Fe valuation &C
this time amounts 70 IS per cent. of an en-
tlrely new road, no deductions being allowed
for depreciation wear of equipment and
other losses.
Attorney General Little is opposed to any
plan OF compromise. and says the full tax
can be collected regardless of the acceptance
OF compromise by the county officials.

Mining CIRCLE stirred un.

PrTsBURG, KAN, January 2O.-It Is well
known that e1-President Walters, ex-Secre-
tary-Treasurer Lacy, and the old executive
board of the United Mine Workers strenu-
ously objected to an examination of the
books of district No. IA, comprising the
states of Kansas and Missouri, saying that
they alone had right to the same.
Charges have repeatedly been made of
transportation OF money by the old cfS.
Gals, and at one time the Missouri miners
sent a man hero to look into the matter.
Now, however, the national officers and the
newly elected officers of the district propose
to look into the stewardship of the former
officials, and National Organizer McGregor
states that the matter will be thoroughly in
vestigated if they have to communicate with
every local union which has sent money to
the former hoard
