WOMEN DON'T VOTE.
Movement in Ohio to Repeal
the Suffrage Law.

Cleveland, O., Oct. 27-The Cleveland
board of elections will petition the
legislature to abrogate woman suffrage
in Ohio if concerted action on the part
of all election boards of the state can
be secured.
President Hugh Buckley of the Cleve-
land board says:
Woman suffrage in this country and
every other country, as I understand,
is a complete and dismal failure. Were
it only that, I would not object to con-
tinuing it, but it costs One-third of the
election expenses to maintain it, and
this amounts to $4,000 a year
AT first the women took the matter
as a fad, and 5000 or so registered.
During the last registration of four
days only 50 women registered. That is
simply ridiculous. Although only 50
women can vote next spring. neVerthe-
less we are obliged to furnish separate
poll books for them at every booth and
separate ballots. Their votes must be
counted at the board rooms and ev-
erv book examined at great loss of la
Dor and expense of clerical help. 1 am
decidedly in favor of shutting out wO-
man suffrage.
Women prominent in the woman suf-
frage movement were all stirred up by
the report that the legislature would
probably be petitiOned to abolish wo-
man suffrage in the state, and several
expressed themselves as ready to enter
a fight to hold off such action on the
part of the board of elections.

CAN'T SUPPRESS 1T.
A Nuisance Out in a New Form in
Topeka

With seats decorated in white ribbons
and trunks covered with white hearts,
old gloves and other such decorations,
Josselyn started for Denver yesterday aft
ernoon at 4:3O o'clock. They were ac-
companied as far as Usage City by Fay
Howell and Terrence Ewart. They were
of course much surprised to see their
seats and trunks decorated in such
manner and were somewhat taken aback
when they found score or more of their
friends there to bid them godspeed. The
occupants of the car did not appreciate
the would-be joke and were much sur
prised when the two supposed grooms
two young ladies to proceed on their
journey alone. 1t is sense1ess enough,
and ill-mannered as we'll to carry such
pranks into effect when there is a reason,
but to play such d silly, ungentlemanly
and rude a trick on unsuspecting travel
ers is objectionable.
Miss Bucknum has been visiting Misses
Ivah and Myrtle Davis for several weeks
and Miss Josselyn accompanies her to her
home in Denver, where she will visit
during the winter.
Managers of railroad lines should issue
peremptory orders that no decorations
of Pullman berths or car seats would be
permitted. The nuisance is a growing
one. One manager in Pennsylvania has
already given orders that all persons
throwing rice the companys depot
platforms shall be arrested.

present at the ceremony. wedding

The Santa Fe Discharges Three
More Passenger Conductors.
They Are j. III. Pierce, A. II.
Crumley and ]. I'll. Brown, On
THE CHICAGO DIVISION
BrOwnSWas Discharged Before
But Reinstated.
Men Are Charged With Pocket
ing Cash Fares.

Three more Santa Fe passenger con-
ductors have been discharged from the
service of the road as a result of the
discovery on the part of the company
that passengers were being carried
without proper transportation. They
are Conductors J. H. Pierce, A. H.
Crumley and J. H. Brown. and all held
responsible runs on the Chicago diVis-
ion.
This brings the number of conductors
discharged for dishonesty up to ten. 1t
IS the largest number of conductors
discharged for any Offense at any time
IN the history of the road. General
superintendent Nudge stated today
that there We're no more conductors
slated for discharge, and that if any
other conductors were in the habit of
carrying passengers without proper
transportation or retaining cash fares
when paid them, their dishonesty was
as yet unknown to the company.
The Santa Fe officials are determined
to put a stop to all dishonest practices
among passenger conductors, and never
at any time in the past has as strict
a watch been kept on the passenger as
is being kept at the present time Pri-
Vate detectives are checking conduct
Ors on passenger trains daily, and dis
cOVery OF dishonest or irregular prac-
tees will be Immediately followed by
the discharge of the conductor impIi-
Gated.
1T is disagreeable to use severe
measures with our men" said a prOmi-
didn't the passenger conductors would
own the road after awhile" The Santa
F'e people admit that they believe a
large amount of money has been lost
during the past year by conductors re-
tanning cash fares paid them by pas
sengers.
While the secret service department
of the road had nothing to do with the
recent discharges, the ten conductors,
were discharged as a result of reports
made to the company by private de-
tectives. They discovered that the
conductors were carrying passengers
without proper transportation and re
tanning cash fares.
Conductor J. H. Brown of Kansas
City, who was one of the last men to
be discharged, was discharged two
years ago for the same Offense. His
Wife appealed to one of the higher Of
hcia1s of the road, and after several
weeks he was reinstated on the promise
that he would be absolutely faithful to
the company.
Santa F'e officials say that it will be
OF no use for the grievance committee
OF the o. r. c. to bring up the case of
the ten men, as none viii be reinstated.

QUEENS COUSIN DEAD.
Duchess of Teck Dies From a
Surgical Operation.

Richmond, Eng, Oct. 27.-The Ouch
ess of Teck cousin of Queen Victoria,
sister of the Duke of Cambridge and
nother-in-law of the Duke of York, died
at the White Lodge here at o'clock
this morning. She was born November
p, 1888.
The death of the Duchess of Teck
was entirely unexpected. It was sup
posed that she had entirely recovered
from a complaint which caused her
considerable suffering
During several days past, active pre-
parations had been on foot for the
opening of charity bazaar at Rich
mOnd, the Duchess having promised to
be present at the ceremony. The streets
have been in process of decoration and
the bazaar itself was approaching
ing done to make the bazaar a memoir
able event and to do honor in every
way possible to her royal highness.
Many inquiries made today at the
White Lodge, the residence here of the
Duke and Duchess of Teck show that
it was only when the duchess returned
from the north a few days ago that
there were slight symptoms of a re-
currence of the Strangulated hernia
for which she sustained an operation
in July last; but it was not expected
that any serious consequences would
enSue.
On Monday, however the duchess
became i'll, though even then no serious
symptoms were observed. But on Tues
day she became worse and the London
specialists who had previously operated
on her were summoned to Richmond.
They held a consultation and decided
last evening that the life of her royal
highness could not be sustained with
out another operation. This was sue
cessfully performed, but the duchess
gradually sank and died at o'clock
this morning.

BOOM TOWNS SPRING UP.
Gigantic Project for West virginia's
Development.

Parkersburg, w. Va, Oct. 26-The pur-
chase of 100000 acres of land in the cen
trail portion of this state a few weeks ago
by a syndicate, among whose members
it is reported are the Vanderbilt inter-
ests, has brought to the surface the de-
tails of a gigantic project to develop the
natural resources of the state.
a part of the result of the deal seems
to be the construction of a railroad from
PIT. Marion, a short distance below Nor
gantown, to the White Sulphur Springs,
on the line of the Chesapeake & Ohio
railroad. The survey of this new line
has already commenced. The syndicate
has options upon all the coal, timber and
tanbark for many miles on both sides
of the proposed road in part of the
state wherein there has never been the
least attempt at development.
Boom towns (on paper are already
springing up every eight or ten miles
along the right of way. There is no
part of this state so sparsely settled, so
wild in it's scenery and SO thoroughly I'M
developed as the section through which
this new line will pass. Wild animals and
game abound, great trees which have
withstood the storms of numberless years
tower on the mountain sides, and every
thing is as it was hundreds of years
ago.

CAUGHT BY THE ICE.
A Whole Whaling Fleet is Frozen Up
in the Arctic REGIONS.

San Francisco, Cal, Oct. 27.-Captain
COgan of the steam whaler Thrasher of
the Arctic, says that the vessels which
were to have wintered in the Mackenzie
river were the steamwhalers BeIuga, Bal
sana, Crampus, Narwhal and Mary D.
Hume. The JEANNE took up the season
supplies for them, but now all of them
are frozen up before anybody expected
the winter to set in.
The vessels that were expected to reach
San Francisco this winter but which
were caught in the ice, were the steam
whalers Fearless. Orca. Newport. Jessie
H. Freeman and Belvidere, the steam
tender JEANNE the bark Wanderer and
the schooner Rosa Rio. Those of the
steamers that had a fighting chance to
get out We're the steamers jeanette and
William Bayliss and the banks Alice
Knowles, John Winthrop and Gay Head.
When last seen the young ice was form
ing around them fast, and unless
storm south came up they also may be
frozen in. There are over 1000 men on
the vessels named, but if Point Barrow
can be reached there will be no lack of
provisions. Two of the fleet were lost
during the season-the bark Cape Horn
Pigeon in Hakodate pass and the Navarch
off Point Barrow.
In the wreck of the latter fourteen of
the crew lost their lives and one of the
rescued men was killed on the Thrasher
on his way to San Francisco. His name
was Harry Holmes. and with fourteen
others he was rescued from a cake of ice
off Cape Haket.
Antoine Silvaa boat steerer on Navarch,
also came down on the Thrasher.
The seasons catch of the whaling fleet
has been very light.
