RACES.

Washington, September 17.-Because
of the large number of inquiries re-
ceived. Consul Chancellor, located at
Havre, has supplied the Department of
State a supplemental report on horse
less carriages. He says that bicycles
and tricycles with the petroleum motor
added weigh considerably less than 100
pounds The price is about $3.50. In
order to get the machine in motion, the
rider after mounting turns tap to ad-
nit the petroleum. which at the same
times on an electric current which ig-
mites the vapOr. He then propels the
machine with his feet until he finds the
motor is working. There IS also in
course of construction a somewhat sim
liar machine to carry two persons. For
the propulsion of ordinary carriages a
kind of steam horse is used. The front
wheels are removed and an extra wheel
attached to a projecting platform Of the
steam horse. In these engines coke is
used for fuel and there is no noise,
smoke or steam The weight is not
greatly increased. Prices range from
81 500 to $500. Smooth roads are es-
sential TO the use of the carriages.

DIRECTORS MUST PAY
Officers of National Bank Who
Sign
False and Fraudulent Statement
of It's Condition,
PERSONALLY LIABLE
70 the Banks Depositors for
Any Losses,
So Says Federal Judge Walker
at indianapolis.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 14-Judge
Baker, of the United States court, in the
suit of the International Typographical
Union against Theo. p Haughey and
other directors of the late indianapolis
National bank, laid down new doctrine
relative to the conduct of national bank
officers.
He holds that directors who sign
false reports of banks condition
are liable for amounts lost by
depositors of the bank in case of its fail
ure. The suit was brought against the
directors of the bank to recover $65,0J0
which the union had on deposit in the
bank at the time of the failure. 10 his
opinion Judge Baker says in part:
IN either the law nor the obligations
of their offices made it any part of theic
duty to utter and publish false aud
fraudulent statements in regard to
the banks condition. These direc-
tors have used their official
stations to enable them to perpetrate
fraud on the plaintiffs entirely outside Of
the scope of their duties"
The directors of the bank affected by
the decision are. Theo. P. Haughey, who
is serving term in the state prison
north; Robert B. F. Pierce, recently APP
pointed receiver of the Toledo. st. Louis
s. Kansas City railroad, Harvey Satter-
white of Martinsville, Schuyler Colfax,
Jr., of South Bend, an Charles E. Meyer
of this city.

SUCCESSFUL BURGLARS.

They Get $45 and a Watch at the Home of
Mrs. Belle Macarthur.
The residence of Mrs. Belle Macarthur
at 1871 Harrison street was entered by
burglars last night. who carried away
gold watch, belonging to Miss Katie Nc
Arthur, and $45 in money, belonging to
Miss Florence Mccoy, who is stopping
there.
1t is evident that the burglar entered
through the front door, which was
left unlocked all night There are
footprints on the front porch to show
that some one went towards the door,
from one corner of the porch, and there
are also marks of dirt on a sofa beneath
parlor window, that show some one
had entered that way.
Every room in the house seems to have
been entered, but nothing further than
the $45 and the watch is missing.
At three o'clock in the morning Sena-
tor Reed, who sleeps up stairs, heard the
door close but paid attention to it.
Miss Macarthur noticed that the door
was wide open at some time in the night
and got up to shut it.
The police were notified this morning
and made an investigation.

MOONLIGHT'S BAD BREAK.
Our Minister to Bolivia Makes n Trouble
Mistake.

Our Minister to Bolivia Makes n Trouble
some Mistake.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-The entire di-
plomatic CORES pondence between the
governments of the United States and Bo-
livia last year as shown by the published
foreign relations was made up of rather
comical little incident which resulted in
putting our minister to Bolivia, Mr.
Moonlight, on the penitent's chair for
violation of the laws of the United
States.
1t appears that it is the custom in
that country to detail an army officer
to receive the incoming minister,
from another country and escort him
across the difficult mountain passes ly-
ing between the coast and the capital
and do everything necessary to secure
him a comfortable trip and proper re-
ceptions.
All this was done for Mr.. Moonlight by
Major Fortuna of the Bolivian army. In
acknowledgements of the many courte-
sizes received, Mr.. Moonlight adds a Eote
to the Bolivian minister OF foreign af-
fairs requesting that if consistent with
the views of the government and the
custom in like cases, Major Fortuna be
promoted to the rank of cOmmandant
Ali this, it seems, was in conformity
with custom, and the Bolivian govern
ment Immediately took pleasure in
granting Mr.. Moonlights request and
the major was duly promoted.
But when this incident came to the
notice OF the state department
Secretary Gresham wrote the minister
that no matter how usual such proceed
ings might be in Bolivia it was entirely
| contrary to section 1871 revised statutes,
which, in terms, forbids any United States
diplomatic officer to request any appoint
ment from any foreign nation
SoMr. Moonlight confessed he had over
looked the statute, expressed his regret,
and adds note to the Bolivian minister
of foreign affairs explaining his
mistake and asking that his former note
be regarded as IA nullity. The correspond
ence, however, does not show that the
army officers lost his promotion in conse-
Ouence.

THE SENATE.

Valentine day in the senate was not
generally observed. Senator Fornev had
two pretty lace valentines on his desk,
and some of the less fortunate senators
received so called comic valentines.
Senator Leedy got one yesterday. As a
rule the journal clerks and enrolling
clerks were more fortunate.
When the senators opened their mail
this morning most of them found from
one to half dozen petitions from pub
fishers in every part of the state asking
better facilities for the State Historical
society. 1t was evidently a put up job.
The petitions were all alike, of which
the following is part:
''We, the undersigned editors and pub
fishers of Kansas newspapers, beg to call
your attention to the need of room in the
Capitol building for the accommodation
of the library Of the State Historical
Society. This library is now placed in
widely-separated rooms in the basement
story. 1t is the property of the state and
principally the gift of generous donors.
The papers contain a record of the his
tory of the people of Kansas AS was
once said by one of our number, the late
Governor John A Martin, pioneer
Kansas editor: "These newspaper files
contain every essential fact connected
with the growth and development of the
communities in which they are published
marriages and deaths; the establish
ment of business and manufacturing en-
terprises, and their changes; transfers of
property; the erection of all important
! buildings; the results of elections; the
opening of streets; the building OF rail-
roads; fires and floods; the municipal
policies suggested, discussed and adopt
ed; and the daily life. thoughts, hopes,
triumphs and disappointments of an
| aspiring and energetic community"
$4,000 to Mrs Mary f. Thorpe.
Senator Taylor introduced a bill for
the relief of Mrs. Mary Z Thorpe of
Leavenworth by paying her $4,000 in
settlement in full for the death of her
husband, who was a superintendent at
the penitentiary coal mines. He was
killed in the summer of 1898 by having a
ton of coal fall on him.
Senator Taylor had another bill, to
give cities of the first class authority to
issue bonds to pay judgments.
Senator Brown introduced a congress
sional apportionment bill this morning
of his own Invention. 1t is different from
the obnoxious house bill, and he de-
scribes it as square toed and free from
gerrymander." It makes the following
apportionment:

THE POLICE TANGLE.
Unfortunate Folks Who Got Into the

Unfortunate Folks Who Got Into the
Meshes of the Police Recently.
1t took less than fifteen minutes to dis
pose of the police court docket this
morning. 1t was an unusually lengthy
one and had on it several cases that had
been continued beside host of new
ones. The judge was busy, however,
and most of them were continued-be-.
cause he had a case in the district court.
The police felt called upon to disturb
the serenity of the house at ia east
Fourth street last night and found Chas.
Thompson and Kittie Jewell together in
room. Kittie was sick, she said, and
Charles was simply there to rub her
head. The police were there to rub
Der neck" however, and they found
other things in the way of evil
dence by SO doing. Charles was
taken to the station but it was thought
advisable to leave the girl because of
her physical condition. Thompson,
whose real name, the police say, is West
brook, put up SO and forfeited it.
William NJ oore had been Intoxicated
and put up So for his appearance which
he forfeited.
Jerry Britt, colored, who Watchman
Wylie found IN the Santa Fe yards steal
ing coal, was fined SO. He pleaded
guilty.
The case of Frank klingman, charged
with running a gamb bling resort, has
been again continued to the 21st
Elder Scott. who was mixed up in lit
tie church row recently, had his case
continued.
The case of Pete Callahan charged
with selling liquor will be tried Tues
day.
Thomas Moore, who was arrested near
the Rock Island depot for the same of
fense also had his case continued.
Judge Ferry then took off his crown
and went up to Judge Hazen's kingdom
to be Just common lawyer for awhile.
