ticular county have failed or refused to
perform their duty.
If, as stated, the county authorities
have failed to act as demanded by your
company, it is safe to presume that in
their opinion no criminal offense has
been committed / beg TO say therefore
that without additional evidence and un-
til the peace officers themselves or the
citizens of the respective counties are
heard from. 1 would deem it unwise to
take official action. Indeed, if the peace
officers themselves have failed to perform
their duties, it still remains that no au-
thority is conferred by the statutes upon
the executive EXCEPT the power to order
out the militia of the state, and l am con-
strained to believe that the circumstances
in the case are not sufficient to warrant
such action. Yours respectfully,
L ID. LEwELLLNG, Governor.
About IL o'clock the special train
which brought Mr.. Waggener from
Atchison, was again put in motion and
left Topeka over the Santa Fe for Usage
City. 1t was the plan when leaving to
take the Missouri Pacific at Usage City
and go west until they would meet the
commonwealers with the stolen train.
Before leaving Topeka the United
States marshal made an effort to enlist
some deputies but did not have much
success although he had small posse
when the train pulled out of the depot
Those on board the special train were
General Attorney Waggener of the Mis-
souri, Pacific and his private secretary
General Superintendent Clark, of the
Missouri Pacific; United States Marshal
Nicely and his deputies; United States
Commissioner E. A Wagener, and a corps
of reporters who will keep the public in
formed of the news at the front.
Who Went From Topeka?
The brave men who accompanied
United States Marshal Neely as his posse
of deputy marshals on the Missouri Pa
cifc special train last night did not go
because they wanted to fight common
weaIers, but because they wanted to see
the fun.
Marshal Nicely only succeeded in en-
listing ten deputies before the special
train left Topeka.
Those who accompanied the party
were: Dee Wilkerson, /. A. Strauss.
ex-policeman, Frank Lyman. an old sci
dier by the name of Briggs, a young
man by the name of Baker, Mike Thomp-
son, County Clerk Chas. t. McCabe, Dick
Hodges and Ed Horner.
Two writs of replevin were issued by
the clerk of the United States court be-
fore the party left Topeka. One writ
was for the engine which belongs to the
Denver and Rio Grande and the other
was for the cars, which belong to thu

AND TALKS MILDLY

WASHINGTON, May 10.-When the SEN
ate met today a bunch of La France
roses graced the desk to be occupied by
Mr.. Patton. the new senator from Mich
igan, appointed to succeed the late Sem
aEor Stockbridge.
MIR. Allen, the Populist senator from
Nebraska, introduced bill to repeal the
act regulating the use of the capitol
grounds, under which Coxey and his
neutenants were prosecuted.
MIR. PETER introduced a resolution for
the appointment of a special committee
Of three senators to investigate the con-
dition of the country with especial refer
ence to the prevailing business depres-
sion, and what, if any, legislation will
afford relief.
The Allen resolution to investigate the
alleged police clubbing on May /, then
came up, and Mr.. Gordon, Dem. Ga }
took the floor.
Result of the PaternaI Idea
Mr.. Gordon said that the Coxey move
ment was the child of the paternal the
ory of government. The remedies for
existing conditions, he said, were to be
found in the decentralization of power.
Mr.. Teller favored the resolution.
Coxey was a law abiding citizen He and
his followers had trudged here through
the rain and mud and were entitled to
respectable consideration. He did not
endorse the statute under which they
we're arrested; he did not think the SEN
ate could refuse to investigate the police
clubbing.
He himself would furnish the names
Of witnesses. Whether Coxey was a
crank, or not, did not matter. His
scheme was absurd, as were many others
put forward in the hour of distress. But
it was not a wicked scheme; it only
asked congress to provide work for the
employed.
The Allen Coxey resolution went over
without action, and the tariff debate war
resumed.

GOLD CLAUSE IN CONTRACT
New York Bankers say Commissioned

New York Bankers say commissioned
Breidenthal is NIisfnformed.
NEW YORK, May 1O.-From conversa-
ton had with a number of prominent
bank officers of this city, il appears
that the state bank commissioner
of Kansas is somewhat mis-
informed, as far as his utterances have
been published, as to the extent to which
New York banks compel the making of
u gold note by their correspondents.
A few banks do retain the
banks, the Bank of America being the
most prominent of these institutions.
They do it, not with the idea of forcing
payment of the principal in gold,
which is seldom done, but be-
cause they have never seen
fit to go back to the old form of contract
used before the currency panic of last
summer, when nearly all banks inserted
the gold clause in their printed notes for
use with bank customers. Probably not
twenty per cent of the bank loans with
banks are now made in New York with
the gold clause.
different policy obtains with respect
to loans between banks and brokerage
houses in which nearly every bank
in New York insists upon
separate contract from the loan agree
ment, but merely single line inserted
that the payment is to be made in gold
coin. The legality of the operation
has never been questioned by the
New York on eastern banking authori-
tiles and bank officers here believe the
Kansas regulation now brought to light
could be shown to be without founda-
tion.

A DRUNKEN CONGRESSMAN
Here's Companion Piece TO Breckin-
ridge-He's From Missouri.


WASHINGTON, May O.-Congressman
John j. O'Neill of Missouri, who needs
no introduction, has distinguished him
self by striking an inoffensive man.
About a. N. DIR. James III. Stone, of
1910 Rhode Island avenue, was standing
at the door of drug store on Pennsyl-
vania avenue as O'NeiIl and two other
men, all hilarious, came along. Seeing
DR.. Stone, who was a stranger to the
statesman from Kerry Patch, O'Neill
said:
'Hey, old man, waiting for an angel?"
DIR. Stone could not understand such
language, and he said so.
"Well, maybe you don't like it" re-
sponded O'Neill.
mo, / DON'T" said the doctor.
"Wel come and take drink of soda" }"
said O'Neill
The doctor did not want any soda and
he told O'Neill SO with emphasis.
"See here, maybe you are mad?" said
O'Neill.
The doctor replied that he was not in
very good humor over what had tran
spired
About that time he turned his back.
Then the fiery temper of the gentleman
from Missouri asserted itself. He clinch-
ed his fist, drew back his muscular arm
and let drive. The blow struck the doc
tor in the back of the head and came
near knocking him down.
DIR. Stone went out, the druggist closed
his store, and the three hilarious gentle
men proceeded to "take in the town."
They had not gone far before Officer
McGrath arrested Mr.. O'Neill on COM
plant filed by DIR. Stone. At police sta
tion No. he gave his name as Browne,
and deposited $5 as a guarantee that he
would appear in the police court to an
swer to the charge of assault and battery.
No one appeared, however. The district
has $5, DR.. Stone has sore head, and
Mr.. O'Neill has no recollection of any
thing of the kind having occurred o.
