BASE SCHEME BALKED.
How the Money Power Planned to
Keep Control of the Kan
Sas Supreme Court.

Topeka, Kas., Nov. 2s.-CspeciaL) A ru-
NOR was flying around the state capital
to-day to the effect that Associate Justice
S II. Allen, of the supreme court, was con-
sidering the question of resigning his off,
cial position to accept a place as leading
counsel for some big corporation. 1t was
claimed that this was a scheme of the
corporations to save the supreme court
from the control Of the Populists. The
plan, it was said. was 10 have him resign
just before the Inauguration OF Leedy, so
that Governor Morrill, could appoint a Re
publican to fill the vacancy.
Justice Allen was seen in his private Of

LONDON, Oct. S.-The Star in COM
menting on the resignation of Lord
Rosebery from the leadership of the
liberal party, says:
Lord Rosebery has resigned and Sir
William Hareourt reigns in his stead.
The liberal party will never again be
led by a peer. Mr. Gladstone chose
Lord Rosebery as his successor to the
leadership, and it is Mr.. Gladstone
who has unwitingly deposed him.
Mr.. T. P. O'Connor, NJ. P, says in
his paper, the Sun:
Lord Rosebery never had a fair
chance. Whenever he indicated a
policy it was Immediately thrown over
by his supposed colleagues Neverthe-
less everybody knows that Mr.. Glad
stone stood outside of the painful in
trigues, odious chickering's and misera-
bic personalities which defaced and
wrecked the liberal party since his re-
tirement.'
The Evening News says:
Lord Rosebery has played the man.
Fle declines to lead a party, the rag
tag and bob-tail of which was always
barking at his heels. Sheer ignorance
has betrayed the radical rump into
the bog into which it is at present wal
lowing"
The Echo says:
Lord Rosebery throughout has
taken a common sense view of the
eastern and western situation while
the other liberal leaders have taken
narrow and more emotional views.
Lord Rosebery's resignation will
strengthen Lord Salisbury"
The Dublin Freemans Journal says:
Lord Roeabery daily gave striking
proof that his views of the foreign
policy differed from those of his party,
His retirement is not a surprise. 1t is
the arrival on the road to which he has
long been travelling.
