Sanders Tells q journal Reporter That
Will Be tho Next Move.
The Sanders camp at Leavenworth is
located just south of the fort in a shady
little valley. 1t is much prettier than
the one they had at Topeka, but the men
say they had rather be here although
they are now getting three meals a day.
There have been several deserters, in
GLIDING the banjOiSt, and the army now
mum bers only 312. A STATE JOURNAL re-
porter visited the camp Saturday even
ing and gave the men the first intima-
ton that Judge Foster could not hear
their case for twenty days, and that Dis
trict Attorney Perry would endeavor to
with Joy and yelled themselves almost
hOarse. Il have been expecting it,"
said Sanders, 'sand if they turn Us loose
we will probably capture the river this
time. l have been trying to buy an old
steamboat here, the Belle of BrOwnville,'
but they want $4,000 for her and l shall
probably 60 to Kansas City and see if l
cannot get another steam boat that hear
is idle there. We have men who know
how to run it. There is danger that
we shall tackle train here
The reporter visited the camp again
Sunday, but found no change in the stu
alton. There were several visitors there
and some of the ladies insisted on meet
ing Sanders, who is quite ladies' man.
Some of the town boys were at the camp
and beat the army nine at game OF
base ball. When not entertaining the
ladies Sanders spent his time with a
deck of gilt edged cards He boards at
the National hotel down town and is
rapidly acquiring aristocratic habits, not
getting up some mornings until nine or
ten o'clock.
A days rations for the army consists
of AS pounds of beef, 352 pounds of
bread, 80 of coffee, 45 of beans, 40 of
sugar, 30 of salt, ID of soap, IL ounces of
pepper. bushels of potatoes, and one
cord of wood.
The army hopes to move by Wednes-
day, if released, and if it cannot secure

that belonged to the old bridge.

THE PLUMBERS TRUST,
Attorney General Lutte Says He Will
Pro<ecute Its Members.


Attorney General Little received let
ter today from E. :. Ellis of Concordia
asking his opinion about the Master
Plumbers Benefit association. The
writer says that the organization was
made to control the business of dealers
in plumbing supplies and that those who
are not mem bers of the association can
not buy from Wholesale houses and that
he has letters to prove the facts.
The attorney general holds that such
an organization comes under the pro-
vision of the Kansas trust law and that
the members are liable to criminal pros
ecutiOn.
He says: IF you cannot yourself
procure this evidence if you will furnish
me the letters referred to L will set on
foot an investigation of this matter and
if discover that any of the parties are
engaged in this trust / shall at once
order the county attorney to commence
a prosecution and l shall give all the
assistance in my power that he may
crush out these unholy combines that are
organizing in our state"
This is the largest of the plumbers or
CARNATIONS and has 10000 members.
There are thirty-five Kansas firms who
are members. The last meeting was held
at Lawrence, May "A. The state officers
are: President, James Foley, Leaven-
worth; vice president. J. III. Beasley,
Pitts burg; secretary, F. w. DOane, Law
renee; treasurer, G. w. Searles, Atchi-
son.
G. J. Prescott of the firm of Prescott &
Allen of this city said, in talking about
the organization:
Several years ago the plumbing bust
ness in the west was in a demoralized
condition. 1t was principally in the
hands of men who were not practical
plum bers and who knew nothing about
sanitary plumbing. That is what called
this organization into 0xiStancR A0U
one can become member who passes a
satisfactory examination in proof that he
is competent to do a sanitary job of
plum biuU"

The SPRING TRADE.

Today's Financial Review says there
is some reason 10 believe that the
Spring trade, however unsatisfactory,
has not been really so bad as might be
inferred from the spirit of complaint.
Impressions have been formed from
the smallness of thescparate purchases,
and sufficient allowance has not been
made for the fact that the greater fire.
quoncy Of transactions has in meas
urc compensated for the smallness OF
the amount Of each one. Reports from
interior merchants indicate that, in the
South and West, better feeling pre-
walls than at the Eastern centres, and
the hope is very generally expressed
that, with fair crops, the Fall trade
will show material improvement Oh
that of the Spring. In fact, generally
throughout the country, the expccta
ton is that the business Of the second
half of the year will showa notable EN-.
provemcnt on that of the first half.
Manufacturers are generally making
increased preparations for the Fall
business; but contracts are held il
suspense until the settlement of the
Tariff gives certain basis for fixing
the future course of prices. Already
prices are 50 exceptionally low as tC
afford reasonably safe basis for con
tracing for future supplies; and thi
fact makes manufacturers cautiou
about undertaking future commit
ments, rs they deem it possible that
when the suspense is removed Their
may be some recovery in values.
