| HEAVY FAILURE.
WATKINS LAND COMPANY
GOES UNDER.
Liabilities SI.50O.OO0 in Debenturs
Bonds ON Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa
and Texas Farms--Bad Reen in BAD
shape for Years-Receivers Appointed

TOPEKA, Kan. Sept limited States
District Judge c. G. Foster this fore
noon, upon the application OF the
Glrard Life Insurance Annuity and
Trust company of Philadelphia placed
the j. Il. Watkins Land and Mortgage
company of Lawrence in the hands of
NJ. Summerteld and j. b. Watkins of
Lawrence and John l.. Switzer of To-
peka as receivers. The liabilities are
81, 800, 900, consisting chiefly of de-
benture mortgages on Kansas, Ne
braska. Iowa and Texas farms
The particular claim upon which
suit was instituted was for SIS, 900
debenture bonds, upon which the in
terest has been defaulted since 1895.
Sam Bishop of Lawrence, attorney for
the company, says the assets will very
nearly cover the liza biIities.
The company has been struggling
for its existence for eight or ten
years. In 1888 it was put into re-
ownership, but five years later it was
turned over to its owners again, with
Mr.. Watkins as president. But finan-
cial conditions were not favora BILE,
and now it will probably be wound
up. It's debentures are mostly held in
the East and in Europe.

AFRAID OF THE JAPs
Sandwich leland People Have New Cause
to Seek Annexation.

Aun618EtOn-
SEATTLE, Wash, Sept 5.-H. g.
Whitney, eX-postmaster general of
the Hawaiian islands. who has inst
arrived from Honolulu, reports a
strong revival of the annexation feel
ing on the islands and says that it is
greatly intensified through the belief
that should Hawaii be annexed to the
United States the threatened
japanese trouble would be entirely
wiped out by the abrogation Of
all existing treaties. By what is
known as the Gibson treaty, entered
into with japan about thirteen years
ago, the japanese may pour into the
islands in unlimited numbers. Thew
now number %, COO and are coming at
the alarming rate of 1000 a year. He
thinks it is only question of a few
years when the japanese will out
number the natives and naturalized
population, and in that case would
cause serious trouble. They are
already demanding the right of fran
chise, which, by treaty, is conferred
upon them as soon as they can read
and write the English language.

OKLAHOMA DIVORCES.
A supreme Court Decision That Annulis
About Three Fourths of Them.

supreme Court Decision That Annulis
About Three Fourths of Them.
GUTHRIE, Okla. Sept 5-The terri
torial supreme court yesterday handed
down fifty decisions, among them be-
ing one in the famous Beach divorce
case. Charles f. Beach, a wealthy
textbook writer of New York city, a
year ago obtained an Okla homa di-
vorce from his wife, Annie Beach,
alleging cruelty. He has since mar
ried and is travelling in Europe with
his bride. The divorced wife, who
was from Philadelphia and very high
ly connected, carried the divorce case
to the supreme court. That body re-
yersed the lower court, annulled the
divorce and dismissed the case, leav-
ing Mr.. Beach landed high and dry as
bigamist.
The ground for reversal on error
was that Beach was never a resident
in good faith of the territory or of
the county in which the divorce was
granted, having lived at Perry three
months simply as a transient guest,
and going to Norman, where the di-
vorce was granted, but the day before
the application was granted. The
same holding by the court will annul
three-fOurths of the divorces ever
granted IN the territory.
The court also decided that the
herds of cattle in the Indian reserva-
ton could not be taxed, except for
general, territorial, and court ex-
penscs This is great victory for the
owners of the great cattle herds, who
thus save many thousands of dollars.
