RumOr That Rock Island Will
Make Great Improve
mentS Here

The Rock Island engineering depart
ment in this city is now preparing plans
for the work to be done in Topeka by
the company next year on the tract of
land purchased some months ago between
the main line and the river, and it is said
that the improvements will amount to
100000. The Rock Island people are some
what reticent about saying just what the
improvements will amount 10, but admit
that extensive Improvements are in con-
temptation
General Attorney Low said that the
tract of "A acres was purchased to pro-
vide additional track room for switching
purposes and that the tracks would prob
ably be built in the spring. Considerable
grading will have to be done to place the
land in shape for tracks, and it is under
stood that a new ice house and yard
masters office will be erected. A light
repair shop is also a possibility, although
Mr.. Low said that he did not think any
machinery buildings would be built.
1t is probable that the yards in North
Topeka will be abolished and that the
entire yards of the company will be
confined to this side of the river.
While the Improvements may not
amount to 100000, the company will un-
doubtedly spend large amount of money
in Topeka next year.

1900 REGISTERED.
Still $500 Voters Whose Names
Are Not on the Books.

If you want to vote this fall you
must register before nine o'clock next
Friday evening.At that time the doors
of the registration office will close and
there will be no more voters registered
under any circumstances.
The work of the politicians is having
some effect for the delinquents are
coming in at the rate of $50 a day.
Commissioner Yount says that he now
has about 1900 names on his books.
This is a good showing for an off year
though last year the registration ran
close to 10000. Mr.. Yount says that if
he can get 600 this year he will be sat
iSfied. That means that 500 people
must register before 9 o'clock Friday
evening.
The members of both central COM
mittees are busily at work urging peo-
pie to register. A candidate approaches
a voter and before he says anything to
him about how he wishes him to vote
he inquiries, Have you registered?'
Still there will be many who are enti-
tied to vote who will not register.
United States District Judge Foster
was one of those who registered today.
Il did not register in the spring." said
he, because was not greatly inter-
ested in the contest" C. G. Gage was
the next man whose name was placed
on the books. 4 am 63 years old, ,'said
he ''and have voted in Topeka for 40
years. 1 guess L am entitled to vote

Commissioner Yount is not having

Gratis and Populists all seem satisfied
with the manner in which the office is
being conducted.

They Are Working Vigorously
in the New York Campaign.
Tracy and George Seem to Be
Their FavOriteS.
TAMMANY'S CLAIMS.
Sheehan and Croker Say Van
Wyck Will Get
100000 of the 475,OOO Votes
Registered in the City.

New York, Oct 19.-"Claim every
thing has seemingly been the motto of
many of the political master mechanics
of New York for the campaign. The
most sweeping claim is that made by
Messrs. Sheehan and Croker represent
ing the Tammany organization and
which has the practical endorsement of
the betting men about town, who have
all along offered odds on Van Wyck.
The claim. however. that the Tamma-
ny ticket will receive $4,000 out of 49,
600 votes registered in Greater New
York is secuted by other party leaders.
Next to Tammany, the greatest display
of confidence is at Republican head
quarters, where there seems to be a
genuine belief that General Tracy will
win.
Seth Lows managers profess to be
confident and those of George to be
satisfied.
Whatever may be the actual belief
of the leaders there is no disposition to
are IN progress nightly from three to
five hundred political meetings This
includes of course the minor gatherings
in assembly district and ward club
rooms. It is claimed that for the re-
naming fortnight of the campaign. the
Tracy leaders have arranged for an av-
erage of 200 meetings per night, at
each there will be full complement of
speakers. A reminder of the wide
spread interest shown in the campaign
of last fall is the work of women either
organized in clubs or acting independ-
emily. Thus far General Tracy and
Mr.. George seems to be equal in favor
of the feminine portion of the popula-
Bryan's woman's clubs of 1886 are
again to the front.

The tops of the buildings across the
street had crowds of spectators and ev-
cry window had its occupants.
Whistles and jeers and cat calls-in
fact noises of all kinds, emanated from
the multitude and kept the crowds up
in the court room much amused. Dep

the building and denied admission ex

Sheriff Pease, late in the evening, is
sued an order to keep the crowd out of

when the verdict was read. Enough
people got in, however, to completely
fill the court room. But three women

the crowd of females during the day.
Cigars were INDUCED in by those

The death of Mr.. Pullman attracted
wide attention in business circles.
Mr. Pullman's death affected the Chi
cago stock market quite appreciably
He was said to have been a heavy
holder of both Diamond Match and
New York Biscuit securities, two of the
most active stocks listed on the local
exchange. When the announcement of
Mr. Pullman's death was posted on the
bulletin board it caused a break in the
latter stock of 354 points. A break of
6 points in Pullman Palace car stock
was chronicled on Wall Street, but a
rally followed.
The death of Mr.. Pullman besides
leaving a vacancy in the Pullman car
directory also causes similar cOndi-
ton of affairs in the boards of direc-
tors of the Chicago Telephone COM
pany. He was represented on the New
York Biscuit and Diamond Match
boards by his sOn-in-law, Frank Lou
den.
1t is believed in local stock exchange
circles that Horace Porter will sue
ceed Mr.. Pullman as president of the
Pullman Palace company
New York, Oct. 19.-Mrs. Pullman
who had been stopping here for some
time past, started for Chicago immedi-
ately upon receipt of the news of the
death of her husband, in that city to-
day.
Mr.. Pullman's fortune is variously es-
timated from $30.0oO, 600 to $50.o00,O00.

CLAIM BRYAN FOR GEORGE
friends of the Single Taxer Issue {
Statement

New York, Oct 19-The campaign
committee of the Jefferson Democracy
is out with a statement that William
Jennings Bryan is in favor of Henry
George for mayor.
On October Z Mr.. Bryan delivered an
address in Evansville, Ind, and after
wards he was interviewed on the stu
alton in New York city. According to
the paper (The Courier) he said:
Il think Henry George has a splend-
id chance of being the next mayor of
New York. He is well known to the
people of New York city. The masses
believe in him and will support him at
the polls I do not think national is
sues will cut any figure in the New
York election"
No letters or kilograms have been
received from Mr. Bryan by any of the
George managers that would tend to
corroborate the above statement, and
so far as known he has not been asked
for his opinion on the situation here.

New York, Oct. 19-Ex-President
Harrison touched upon a truth regard
ing the New York municipal CAMPAIGN
in the course of the interview with
Murat Halstead which was published
yesterday This is that, to some extent
the issue is whether there shall be anv

question thus presented divides the
Democrats and Republican aIflIe-fhe
latter perhaps more sharply than the
former-as to both national and state
issues.
The strength of the Low independ-

the proposition that local issues should
be paramount in the city campaign,
while the Republican organization in

Now Mr. ThurStOn is a very nice man
but do not think that New Workers
need his assistance in telling them for
whom to vote. When this great city
feels like reaching out and taking in
Nebraska as one of its boroughs then
it will be time enough for Mr. ThurstOn
to tell US for whom we shall vote.
The same may be said of the gentle
man from Ohio. Now I am an Ohio

HARRIsoN mAY BACK OUT
Chicago's Mayor is Advised to Keep
Hands Off in New York.

CHICAGO Oct 19-MayOr Harrison
may not go to New York October % to
speak in the interests of Judge Van
Wyck in accordance with his agree
ment with Richard Croker.
Many of the mayors advisors believe
it would be unwise from a political
point of view for him to go to New
York and mix UP in the four cOrnered
mayoralty fight now in progress there
and have urged him not to play in
Tammany's backyard at the present
time.
The mayor has not decided just what
he will do in the matter, but it is con-
sidered highly probable that he may
decline the invitation to go east. A
committee from the Cook county
marching club called on the mayor and
offered to escort him on his contempla-
ted trip east. One hundred and fifty of
the famous silk hat brigade have signi-
fed their intentions of going.

MR.. PUL1MAN's LIFE.
He Began for Himself as Clerk in
Country Store.

Chicago. Oct. 19.-George Mortimer
Pullman was born in Chautauqua coun-
ty, New York, March 3, 1881. At IA he
began life as a clerk in a country store,
later associating himself with an older
brother in the cabinet making business
at Albion. He came to Chicago in 1859,
and at first engaged in the business Of
raising buildings, elevating entire
blocks a number of feet to bring them
up to new street grades.
While riding in an O1d-faShiOned
sleeping car from Buffalo to Westfeld
n. Y, it occurred to him that there
was a field for building comfortable
sleeping coaches. From 1859 to 1863 he
made a series of experiments on the
Chicago & Alton and Galena roads.
From these experiments he worked out
detailed plans. A workshop was rent
ed, skilled mechanics employed and Mr..
Pullman threw himself into the task
with the ardOr of a man who moves
from settled convictions Although
without mechanical training himself, he
personally directed the work of others
in all the minor details of putting the
idea ne had originated into material
form. The first car, the Pioneer was
completed early in 1865, and Immediate
ly took rank as the most perfect rail-
way vehicle the world had ever seen.
This was the beginning Of the Pullman
system, which has grown to the pres
! ent enormous proportions.
Mr.. Pullman was identified with al
most every public enterprise in Chi
cagO.
The Industrial town of Pullman,
contains over II, 900 inhabitants. Mr..
Pullman was a brother of the Rev. DR..
J. NJ. Pullman, of New York, former ed
itOr of the Christian Leader.

Place to Place Holding Meetings.
New York, Oct 19-The George man
ayers have decided upon plan OF
campaign against Tammany.It will be
to put Mr.. George to the front as the
leader of organized labor. A circular
was distributed today by the Labor
campaign committee. attacks Tam
many for ignoring the Chicago plat
form says the nomination of the George
ticket is the result of that piece of
cowardice; tells the WOrkingmen that
this is their fight, and invites them to
send representatives to the headquart-
ers of the George campaign committee
It also urges them, especially, to send
in financial contributions. The George
followers have hired ten trucks and
teams. The trucks will be supplied
with orators, and kept moving from
point to point, day and night, meetings
being held on every corner.
An answer to ex-MayOr Abram S.
Hewitt, who on his return from Eur
ope last Saturday criticised Secretary
Bliss and Henry George, the latter
said today:
''NIr Hewitt is stricken with an inca
pacity to distinguish right from wrong -
Among other things, Mr.. Hewitt said
Henry George was once his private
secretary. This is what made George
angry. He explained that, while he
did some work for Mr.. Hewitt one day
every week, he was never his private
secretary, and the work he did was not
of that character.
