Indicted for Foreery.

This morning Deputy Booker

indictments in both of which he

of forgery. The grand jury re-

STRYKER NOT YET SATISFIED.
Wants Two More Reforms In the In
terests of the Schools of
Kansas.

Topeka, Kas, June 2S-(Special) State
Superintendent Stryker has more faith in
his ability to get what he wants out of
the Populist legislature than Governor
Leedy has. He says he is confident that
If an extra session is held he can get what
ever laws he asks for concerning schools.
The governor would like 10 have a railroad
law enacted, but he is afraid he cannot
manage the legislature. and for that rea-
son is rather slow in making UP his mind
about issuing call for II. In discussing
some additional school legislation needed
Superintendent Stryker to-day said:
Now that the textbooks for the state
are adopted and the work Of the commits
sion is practically over, it is time for an
other move. 1t will save the people
over one-half what they have been paying
for books, which will amount TO hundreds
of thousands of dollars every year. The
next point of attack is school supplies of
all kinds and insurance on Schoolhouses.
The success of the textbook law will ma Ike
the rest easy / can go before the legis-
lature in the special session and get what
/ want easily. Scaool seats cost more than
double what they should, as do most other
school supplies. Kansas furnishes business
enough to keep more than one good COM
pany busy. and the work could easily be
brought into our own state and be done
by our own people, and the people save
one-haf what they are paying. beside. A
law along the same general line as the
textbook law. If honestly administered
would accomplish the desired result"
Superintendent Stryker thinks insurance
on school houses costs too much. What
l would have" he says 'iS a law for each
county to insure its own school houses on
the same plan as death losses are paid by
the A. o. L. w. The value of each school
house is easily determined. Let the coun-
ty make good the loss in case of fire or
damage by lightning or cyclone, on a
basis Of one-half or two-thirds value on
proper, and each district pay its share of
loss in proportion to its value.

GEORGE TAYLOR AGAIN.
Tulsa, 1. T., Man Says the Escaped
Murderer Would Surrender on

B. Cooper, well known citizen of this
city, has received the following letter:
Tulsa, !. T.. June 20. 1S97.-A. B. Cooper
Sir:-Some months ago I noticed in the
papers a report from your town in refer
ence to the whereabouts of George Taylor,

Now, Taylor was here at the time you
were at Tulsa, out he Is not here now. A
friend of mine here and myself were well
acquainted with both the Taylors before
the Meeks murder and saw and talked with
George number of times while here, but,
believing that Bill was wholly to blame
for the deed. and he paid the penalty, We
concluded to not give George away. a
few days before TAYLOR left here he said
he was going to Mexico to visit some old
Missouri friends. and that he might then
go to Cuba and go back into the country,
where he could not easily be found, as
try in safety. He often said If his sem
tence was changed to a short term in pris-
on he would go back so he could again
be with his family and some time be free.

he knew they would hang him if he was
caught If a Communication could be got I

MUST PRODUCE ITS BOOKS.
stock Yards Accounts and Records for
Five Years 10 Be Laid
Rare,


Topeka, Kas., June 2S-(speciai) Judge
Foster In the federal court to-day issued
an order compelling the Kansas City Stock
Yards Company to produce its books and
vouchers and permit the attorney general
TO examine them, from January l, 1892, to
March II, 1897. The order reads as fol-
lows:
"It is ordered that the defendant, the
Kansas City Stock Yards Company, pro-
duce for examination by L. C. Boyle, attor-
ney general of the state of Kansas, and
he is hereby authorized to examine with
such assistants and accountants as he may
choose, all the books, documents. papers
and vouchers so produced of the stock
yards company which he may desire to ex-
anime, am from January l. iSs2, 10 March ~ Y;
moneys for all purposes in and about Its
business; and that he be furnished by said
company with the proper facilities for
making such examination"
This was the point which brought on
such spirited discussion at the hearing
last Saturday. The company $ attorneys
did not see the need of going into the
vouchers and other papers; they contended
mat the attorney general nag oeen gwen
the statement was not what he wanted, and
that he would ask TO see the vouchers and
to cross-eXamine Mr., Morse again. II WIS
intimated by Mr.. Hite that probably the
attorney general would not get chance to
question Mr.. Morse again, as he proposed TO
cation and would not stay here for the ac-
commOdation of the attorney general. Mr..
Boyle said that if he learned that Mr..
Morse proposed to do that he would lay the
facts before Judge Foster and get an order
that would make Colonel Morse stand
hitched" until his testimony was taken.
He told Mr.. Hite that it looked as If he
wanted to run Mr.. Morse off. Mr.. Hite de-
MED the charge. The vouchers and other
papers showing the expenditures and for
what purpose for the period between lSS2
and 1897 will be examined by Expert Ac-
countant Stagg this week.

washington June 8.-The senate COM
mittee on finance to-day settled several

treaty in effect will be retained. The tea
paragraph was again passed over for fut-

The committee decided to advance the
rate on pig lead TO pa cents per pound.
This is an increase of u cent over the

originally disturb, and was made as COM

Kiel, Germany, June 2S.-It was semi-offi-
cially announced to-day that, owing to the
health OF Baron Marschall Won BiebeTstein,
rendering necessary his retirement from
the post of minister for foreign affairs, the
emperor has temporarily intrusted the port
folio of minister for foreign affairs to Herr
Won Bulow, who will assume the duties Of
the foreign office on the return of his
majesty to Berlin. Prince Hohenlohe has
started for Berlin. He visited Prince Bis
marck at Friederichsruhe while on his way
to the German capital.
Friederichsruhe, Germany, June &. -
Prince Hohenlohe, accompanied by Herr
Won Bulow and Baron Wilmowsky, paid a
four hours visit to Prince Bismarck to-day
on the way from Kiel to Berlin. The
party alsO drove out for an hour and ha1I,
Prince HOhenlOhe sitting in carriage with
Prince Bismarck.
Berlin, June 2S.-As the health of Baron
Marschall Won Bieberstein. minister OF Tor
eign affairs, is IN no way impaired, the
semi-oficial announcement of his retire.
ment from the foreign office. which comes
from kiel to-day, Is regarded as virtual
dismissal. The kaiser is expected to re-
turn here during the latter part of Au-
gust. Until that time, the affairs OF the
foreign office will be in the hands OF Baron
Won Rotenhan, under secretary of state.
The theory is that this arrangement Is
made to enable Baron Won Bulow to ac-
company the emperor and Prince Hohen-
HOhenlohe will resign and Baron Won Bu-
low succeed him. Baron Won kiderlon-
Wachtoe, now German minister at Copen-
hagen. will be appointed foreign secretary.
Both men are highly esteemed by the en-
peror, but the appointments will certainly
provoke a great deal of criticism because,
though of the first rank in diplomacy they
are quite without experience of pariia-
mentary life.
Although not officially announced. il Is
said tonight that DIR. Won BOett miaIster
of the interior. has actually resigned and
will be succeeded by Count PosadowsHy-
Wehner, the present secretary of the treas
ury.
DIR. Miquels chances appear to be tenn
porarily clouded. General Podbielskyat will
shortly be gIzetted as postmaster general.
This, as well as the visit he has recently
paid to Prince Bismarck. is looked upon as
confirming the report of the early resigna-
tion of Prince Hohenlohe, who has always
strenuously opposed placing such offices as
the postal department in the hands of men
of military training.
Altogether, Germany appears to be in the
thrOes of a far-reaChing crisis. of which it
is impossible to see the outcome. beyond
the fact that the emperor IS more than
ever taking the reins into his own control

Washington, June 2s.-Representative
Shafroth, of Colorado, introduced in the
house to-day a measure entitled "A bill
to encourage the economical administra-

''in order that each officer and eEnploye of
the United States shall have a direct in

WON'T USE MACHINES.
State Printer Parks to Go Back to the
Primitive Method of Conn
nOsfffOn.

Topeka. Kas, June 2s.-(speciaD John
S. Parks. of Beloit. who succeeds ]. K.
Hudson as state printer, on July !, an
nounced to-day that he would not use
typesetting machines for composition, but
would do the work by hand. The prin-
cipal reason for the abandonment of the
machines is that the legislature attached
to the appropriation bills for the state
printer for the ensuing two years rider
containing a provision that the state print
e. should receive but 10 cents per LOCO ems
for machine work. This provisO practic-
ally destroys all the profit in that class of
work. For hand composition the rate runs
from 80 10 45 cents per 1000 ems, and Is
vastly more profitable.
The Topeka Typographical Union made
a vigorous fight during the legislature
endeavoring to secure the passage of a
law prohibiting the use of machines in
the state Office, but was unsuccessful.
During the last few days of the session,
when appropriation bills were being con-
sidered hurriedy, the rider was attached
to the state printers appropriation and
both were passed without opposition. This
gains for the printers the point for which
they were contending, although it was not
secured in the manner which had been
expected.
