Over Seventeen Thousand Dollars in
Taxes Involved

Wichita. Jan. S.-An important case of
the city Of Wichita is now going on in the
district court There We're three cases in
az ana two of them have been disposed
OF already in favor of the city The ma
ture OF the cases as learned from CITY
Attorney George Adams, is about as fol-
lows: "
When the street railway COMPANY was
granted franchise a contract was made
tween tracks was to be done at their ex-
pense and charged up to them in taxes
the same as other city paving is charged
up 10 city property abutting it. In 1891
the street car company eniOined the cOlI0-
" treasurer from collecting this tax ana
II repeated its injunction in 1899 and in
1875 IheSe were temporary iniuuctfons
ana Tor some reason not explained there
We're no further steps taken in them until
now Now they are up before Judge Dale
and the city is represented by the Adams
Bros while the company is represented
by Stanley K Nermillion. The street car
side of the controversy sets I'D the ola i'm
that the contract with the city council
canOt be enforced by taxation but fhat i
should be enforced by the usual mef hobs
OF enforcing contracts by suit in the com
petent courts. Judge Dale in the two
cases finished. has held that when +be

EDW. WILDER TESTIFIES.
He is Placed on the Stand in the
Santa Fe Case.

Chicago Jan. S.-The case against ].
A Hanley for violation of the interstate
commerce laws prohibiting rebates was
argued today and it Will go to the jury
at the close of the afternoon session.
The government placed on the stand
Edward Wilder, secretary and treasur-
er of the Santa Fe railroad to identify
the minute book with respect to the
change of name of the corporation Feb
ruary "a 1898. Mr. Wilder did not prove
an exception to the lack of knowledge
displayed by the railroad officials who
have preceded him on the stand. He
was not positive that the book in QueS-
ton was the official one. 1t resembled
the same he said, and il contained the
minutes OF the stockholders meetings.
He could recognize some of the
writing in the book as the personal
work OF his predecessor, c. w. Pierce
Judge GrOsscup was evidently under
sitiOn and the manifest character of the
book were ample proof of identification
for he allowed the same to be admitted
in evidence, despite Attorney Forests
objections.
Gen. Black led off in the argument for
he was getting into the midst of his
speech by an objection of Attorney
Forrest.
Gen. Black demanded of the court
that he be not interrupted in such a
manner during his address.
Let Mr.. Forrest have an exception
to everything 1 say, but do not let him
interrupt me-
The court told Mr.. Forrest that he
could jot down his objections and ex-
ceptiCnS would be allowed. but the
general must not be interrupted.

PIT. BARNUM's EULoGY.
The Veteran Snowman Twice Visited
the Atchison Graveyard

The fact that no monument has
ever been erected over the grave of
John A Martin, formerly governor of
Kansas, is attracting some comment,
says the AtchisOn Globe.
1t is also a fact that no monument
has ever been erected over the grave of
P. T. Asbell. who was very prominent
here in the early days. Two or three
years ago his daughter wrote to a city
official, ard asked that the city erect q
monument to the memory of her faith
er. This recalls another story. In 1875,
when Glenn. Rohr was mayor, Barn
um's show was in Atchison, and the
lightning ticket seller a man named
Powers, was taken sick with cholera
morbus, and died the following day at
the old Otis house. Mr.. ROhr hired Al
Muliigan's hack. and followed the re-
mains to the grave in Mt. Vernon Gene
terry. Barnum was not with the show
About a year later P. T. Barnum ap-
peared in Mr.. Rohr's harness shop. and
said he wanted to erect a tom bstOne
over Powers grave, SO Mr.. Rohr and
Mr. Barnum went down on Fourth
street to marble shop kept by a man
named Farris, and Mr.. Barnum bought
a slab for $3.50. the most expensive in
the house.
When it was erected, Mr.. Rohr again
hired AL. Mulligan's hack, and again
drove out TO see that it was properly
put up. In another year p T. Barnum
appeared in Mr.. Rohrs shop again. and
said he would like to go out to see
Powers grave. AL Mulligan got an
other job, and Mr.. Rohr and Mr.. Barn
UNI went out to see Mt. Vernon togeth-
er. Mr.. Rohr says that Barnum stood
over the grave and delivered the most
touching euiOgy to the memory of
Powers he ever heard in his life. Pow
ers had a wife, but she never came
here When Barnum was here the sec
ond time. he said Mrs. Powers was in
Switzerland.

Theory That the Hutchinson
Girl Was Dragged.
CARRIAGE DRIVEN UP.

Hutchinson, Jan. S-As was predicted
the young girl who stopped at the hay
stack two nights and froze her feet
proved to be Stella Mott of this city She
is a home and has a strange story to
tell.
Her story is that on last Saturday she
left home at O'Clock in the afternoon,
and walked south on Poplar street to Sec
ond avenue. She intended to visit friend
but saws she liked to walk in the snow
storm and went two blocks out of her
way
When she reached Second avenue she
turned east and was walking on the side
walk when she heard carriage driven
up behind her This is all she remembers,
she says, until she regained consciousness
Monday morning. and then she was at the
straw stack near Burton. It was not yet
daylight and she walked about the stack
in order to keep warm until she could see
a house and apply for shelter
Her father believes that the girl was
knocked down by blow on the head sat
urday evening. which rendered her IN.
conscious. He says that she complains OF
a pain in her head over the right ear. and
there is a confusion there which indicates
that she had received a severe blow
10 is his theory that she was then placed
in hack and taken to some room in TINS
city where she was drugged. and that her
captor or captors fearing that she would
die or was dead. had driven to the farm
and dropped her at the straw stack Ihere
were tracks in the snow at the stack, and
near there which bear out this theory

Jackson's Birthday.

New Haven, Conn, Jan. S.-The mem
ory of Andrew jackson was regar-
nished with a fresh wreath last night
at the hands of the local silver Democ
racy and the principles he enunciated
were re-affirmed in the bubbling bum
pers and to the accompaniment of the
rattle of knives and forks as an elabor-
ate menu was put out of sight under
the copious vests of the silverites The
banquet hall was aglow with Candida
bra The wall in the rear of the head
table was covered by a large American
flag draped in folds, the center being
held by a large silver bug especially
prepared for the occasion. on either
side were hung two portraits, that up
on the left being the face of w. J. Bry
an and that upon the right a fun
length picture of Andrew Jackson.
