ator is still matter of guesswork as
to the winner of the prize, though it
seems to have been settled by the action
of the Populists in caucus that the sue
cessor of Senator Squire will be a Popu-
list, and this would only be the expect
ed result, as they are in majority.
Just how long the Populists will hold
to their personal preferences and thus
delay an election is not known at this
time.

Insurance Commissioners McSall, oil
Kansas. Applying the Laws He Finds.

Topeka, Kansas, March 27.-Insur-
ance Commissioner Webb McNall an
nounces that under the 1889 Burton anti
trust law of Kansas he will expel all old
lire insurance companies from the State
or compel them to leave the secret pool.
which he claims they maintained by
means of being subscribers to Herrson
Clarkson's rate book. He claims that he
has other evidences of a secret pool OF
rates below those of other companies. The
Kansas statutes empower him 20 refuse
licenses if companies do not comply with
statutes and this will be his weapon.
