The Santa Fee Receivership Trouble Before
United States Judge Foster at Topeka.
TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. e4.-In an affi-
davit made public in the trial of the
Santa Fee receivership case lefore
Judge Foster, of the federal court, yes
terday, George j. Hammond, a CLERK in
the Western Grain & Stock exchange,
of Chicago, swore that a conspiracy
had been formed to beat down Santa
Fe stock, and his testimony implicated
Daniel ]. Small, of Topeka. Henry
Wollman, Of Kansas City, and other
citizens at the mouth of the Kaw. In
his testimony Hammond alleges that
he saw letter from Henry Keller, of
Topeka, to Attorney Small, in which
the latter explained the details of the
conspiracy. Henry Keller was to have
charge of the case in Kansas, and
Henry Wollman in Kansas City. Woll-
man, SO Hammond alleges, had $780,
900 to put into the deal.
An affidavit by j. b. johnson, of To-
pelxa, ex-master in chancery for the
Santa Fee road, duplicates others in the
conspiracy in addition to those men,
toned in the Hammond testimony.
Numerous stock brokers in Kansas
City had, according to their affidavits,
received tips on the proposed receiver
ship application, and the case rapidly
unraveled as the affidavits were filed

MENA, Ark, Nov. 24.-Early yester-

ALL ABOUT SLEEVES.

Pretty sleeves Of black satin fit close
from shoulder to wrist and have an over
draping of the material. lined with
light colored satin and edged with rich
lace. In velvet this is also very dressy.
To give the necessary breadth to an
ordinary tight-ftting sleeve or leg of
mutton design. tiny caps trimmed with
three or four deep ruffies are added.
These are edged with lace or ribbon,
or are piped with velvet.
Undersleeves Of sheer fabric arranged
over silk or satin are very fashionable
in dressy bodices. Brocade and satin
are combined in the sleeves of reception
gowns, and the mandolin and accordion
designs are still in vogue for etamine,
cheviot and similar wooden materials.
The question of sleeves is at present
of paramount Importance. They are
changing in fashion so materially and
are so varied and diversified in design
that even gowns and bodices made q
month ago must be entirely ''over-
hauled" if one wants to look up to date.

CLEVELAND. o., Nov. PA close
friend of Chairman Hanna has ex-
planned under what circumstances Mr..
Hanna would accept place in the cab
met. "Mr. Hanna" he said, will
either go in the ca binet or he will be
the next republican United States SEN
ator from Ohio. Mr.. Hanna's course
must be decided by Senator John Sher-
man. Mr.. Mckinley wants Mr.. Hanna
to accept the treasury portfolio, but
Mr.. Hanna has other aspirations.
He believes it would be a greater
honor to be senator from Ohio. Mr..
Mckinley will offer Senator Sherman
the position of secretary of state, and
if he declines to go into the ca binet,
then Mr.. Hanna will accept the posi-
ton of secretary of the treasury.
Should Mr.. Sherman decide, however,
to become one of President McKinley's
advisers, thus vacating his seat in the
senate, Mr.. Hanna will become his sue.

AGAINST THE BILL
Consensus Of Senatorial Opinion

SHERMAN THINKS 1T COULD PASS

vors Act Authorizing
short Time Loans.

Washington, Nov. 25.-There Is such q
diversity OF opinion among Republican
senators in the city as 10 the course to
be pursued at the next session with ref
erence to the tariff that II Is considered
quite probable caucus will be held very
early in the session to decide upon line
of action. Senator Sherman is still I'M
derstood to hold the opinion that the
Dingley bill should and could be passed
at the approaching session. while other
Republican senator's disagree with him
as to the wisdom OF the measure and
others as to the possibility of getting it
through. The Indications are now that
the decision OF caucus would be
against taking up the Dingley bill.
Senator Chandler said today that he
thought congress should make provis-
ion for II short-time loan at the coming
session.
II believe: he said. 1--WE can author
ize short-tIne loan. limited to fifty or
a hundred millions. Provision may ne
made for such loan to be paid off with
in few years. If we have not the
money 1t has to be borrowed. and, it IS
offensive to every one TO nave the gov
eminent resort to the roundabout and
evasive methods adopted by Mr.. Cleve-
land in the loans he has negotiated
Authority should be given at once for
short-time loans. SO that the govern
ment may be got out when 1t finds Itself
in hole"
Would you make any provision for

gold.
The thing to do now is to provide
means for getting money until we can
put revenue legislation into effect. There
will have to be an extra session of the
Fifty-fifth congress, in my judgment,
and we shall then enact both revenue
and financial legislation. I do not see
how we can accomplish anything as 10
either of these questions at the coming
session.
The senator expressed the opinion that
the next session would be quiet one.
The Republicans were not disposed to
crow, he said and he saw no opening for
a rumpus, except between the silver
Democrats and the gold Democrats. He
expressed the opinion that the silver Re-
publicans would be admitted to the Re-,
publican caucus if they wanted to go in.
