POsTOPFICES II KANSAS DISTRICT
SHOWS LARGE INCREASE

wichita is the Depository of 500 Post
offices in Forty-Two Counties in Kansas
and the Returns show an Increase of
Over 10 Per Cent Which Postmaster
Fitch Believes is a Sure Indication of
Returning Prosperity Wichita is Also
the Depository for $50 Money Order
Offices That show 4 Per Cent Increase.
It is said that the postal service is
the true index TO the business of a
community, and as business increases
in activity the postal department will
be the first indication of such activity.
AS is we'll known, Wichita is the
depository of coo postoffices in Kansas
which comprises the offices in forty-two
Kansas counties. Aside from this it
is the depository Of $50 money order Of
fees in a district comprising portions
of Kansas, Oklahoma, Indian Terri
tory and Texas.
The counties in Kansas where the Of
fees deposit their entire deposits al
Wichita. are as follows: Barber, Bar
ton, Butler, Chase. Chautauqua, Clark.
Comanche, Cowley. Edwards, Elk. Fin
ney, Ford, Grant. Gray. Greeley,
Greenwood. Hamilton. Harper, Harvey.
Haskell. Hodgeman. Kearney, King
man, Lane. Mcpherson, Marion, Meade.
Morton, Ness. Pawnee, Pratt, Reno,
Rush, Scott, Sedgwick, Seward, Stat
ford, Stanton, Stevens, Sumner and
Wichita
AT the present time Postmaster Fitch
and Assistant Postmaster Lock are bu-
SLY engaged in receiving and receipt
ing for the deposits from these 500 Of
fees, and in some cases are forced to
write a receipt for l cent, the balance
on hand. while some offices have a bal
ance Of over $500
When an Eagle reporter called yes
terday al the Office and asked as TO how
the collections correspondent with the
counted up the total and made the COM
parison, showing an increase balance
for the offices OF the fOrty-two counties
il Kansas Of over l6 per cent
Postmaster Fitch in speaking OF the
subject, said: This l consider as a good
index 10 the business of a community,
and this l6 per cent increase means a
large increase in business. The more
business done in a community the great
er the volume of correspondence car
ried on. When a man is doing some
thing his first impulse is to sit down
and write 10 his friends.
This is the largest receipts OF de-
posts, at the present time, Of any per-
iOd in the history of the Wichita post
office during the present administra-
ton, and / consider il a good omen"

UNION OF TWO HEARTS
Jay willis and liiss Haymaker, of Cald-
well, Married Here Yesterday.

Jay Wills and hiss Haymaker, or (ald-
well, Married Here Yesterday.
Last evening the residence of Mr..
and Mrs. r. L. Bostic of lips North Mar
ket street, was the scene of a joyous
wedding ceremony and nuptial feast
The occasion was the marriage of Mr..
Jay Willis and Miss Maude Haymaker,
both of Caldwell. Rev. Bruce Griffith,
who so recently knelt at the altar of
Hymen himself, tied the knot which
bound the two happy hearts together.
After the ceremony, which took place
at O'Clock, the young couple and 4.
party of friends and relatives, took
seats at the banquet table, where a de-
lghtful wedding dinner was served.
They VIII leave this morning on al
eastern "trip. to be absent several weeks.
The groom, Mr.. Willis, is we'll known
not only in Wichita. but to great num-
Der of the people of the southwest on
account of his long connection with the.
Leland hotel at Caldwell. No finer
young man or more genial companion
exists in Kansas and thousands, upon
hearing of his marriage, VIII, in spirit
at least, throw a flower IN the path
way Of himself and his fair young bride.
JAY has lived in a sunbeam all his life.
II is all around him and penetrates the
very depths of his soul. and happy ia
she who took himself and his big heart
for better or worse. He IS all right,
and there are only a few Of his kind
left.
All that is said Of Jay can be said Of
Miss Haymaker. She is a. young lady
of fine WOmanly qualities; bright.
young. accomplished and attractive.
She has many friends in Wichita and,
in fact, wherever she is known.
After their honeymoon they VIII set
tie down in the Borden Queen, and
when Jay returns to Caldwell there will
h more good cigars smoked there than
on any day since the big fifteen million
dollar cattle convention, held there a
dozen wears ag.g

WILL MAKE NO CHANGES
W. p. Campbell and Morrill, Have Very
Long Talk.

The Topeka Capital says: Governor
Morrill, and w. z. Campbell held a
conference lasting nearly the whole of
yesterday afternoon concerning the
situation in Wichita with regard to
the enforcement of the prohibitory law
The governor announced that he would
make no changes in the Wichita police
commission.
The Kansas City Journals dispatch
from Topeka says: Another attempt
has been made TO remove the police
commissioners at Wichita, but Gov
ernor Morrill, remains steadfast IN the
reply he has given at each occasion,
and that is, in effect, as follows: NO
change viii be made until it is shown
that the board has neglected its duty,
and then only when men better quail
fed to enforce the law are submitted
10 replace it"
Tiger BIZ Campbell is in town to-
day and 10 the reporter for the Jour
nal he said: I'VE have the joints on
the run. The fight is practically won.
The joints are up garrets or down eel
lars and doing business on the sly,
and there are not half as many of them
as there used to Zoe licensed saloons.
I expect to stay in this fight until HI
freezes over, and the whisky gang may
put that down for a fact

PRICE OF TIN PUT UP.
Manufacturers Endeavor to Take Advan-
tage of Increased Demand.

Chicago, November ga morning
paper says, There Is every probability
that the "gentlemen's agreement" to
maintain prices made last spring by the
tin plate manufacturers, will be put into
effect December 1st. The old agreement
expired by limitation last July. Prices
thereafter. until near election, were ir-
regular. Three weeks before election, the
demand for tin began and it has since
reached enormous proportions, mean
while prices are firmly held.
AT a meeting at PiStsburg Friday at
which all the manufacturers except those
from the Indiana ges belt were present,
IL WAS decided to advance the prices 15 to
90 cents a box over the low figures of last
summer and an effort to secure the CO.
operation of the western manufacturers
was inRugurated. 1t developes that
the western men have the products of
their mills sold up to June. and In many
cnses to July, and are heartily In favor
of the advance. The figures as agreed or
by the western men. and which will un-
doubtedly be oonourred in by the Indiana
makers, are but a fraction below the
price at which foreign plate can be i'm.
ported.
Among the recent large orders placed
with the tin plate manufacturers are
100, 900 tons each by meat packers and
Gamers, 400. 200 tons by manufacturers
of tin ware, 150,0 900 tons by q condensed
milk canning company, 100, 900 tons by
jobbers of hardware and timers

WANT AN EXTRA SESSION.
Many Congressman Think the Ding1ey Bill
Cannot Pass.

Canton, Noveu ber 20. MAJOR McKin-
ley had a day of rest. He took Mrs.
Mckinley out for drive, shortly after
breakfast this msrning, returning In
time to reach tho church before the
morning serv ice began. Mckinley went
to church alone. There was a quiet
family dinner party at the Mckinley
residence this afternoon. Mother McKin-
ley, Miss Helen Mckinley and sister of
Mrs. Abner Mckinley were present.
Major Mckinley has been hearing a
grea, deal from visiting Congressman in
the last week about the tariff and an
extra session of Congress. He has talked
with good many congressman about
the DiDgley bill, and has had many
letters on the subject.
Most of his callers here think it will
not be an easy matter to pass the Ding
ley bill and that it would be better and
wiser to have an extra session of Con-
gress for the purpose of drafting a new
tariff law. A good many Congressman
will be here W thin the next ten days
and there will be great deal of dis
cssion on this subject on this subject in
Canton. Mckinley said today that he
expected to be iE Canton Thanksgiving
day,
