was ten miles wide, and Travelled at a
terrific speed. AT least 400 square
miles of territory were burned. Cattle

''For the boss and his gang to con-
troll the Republican state convention
in 1893, although supported by the ma
tional administration, means disas-
trous defeat for the party. 1t is a
contest within the party against petty,
offensive unprincipled bossism, and
the voters of the party can, if they
will, assert themselves in 1898 and
place Kansas where she naturally be-
lougs, in the column of Republican
states.
"Populistism is less to be feared in
retaining Kansas than Bossism.'

Relatives Have His Brain Removed
For Use i'm Evidence.
Chicago, Nov. 20.-Another step in
the attempt to defeat the supposed
plans of Mrs. Wallace Ketcham that
will be taken will be the removal of
the brain of John Ketcham at Toledo
so that it can be examined by experts.
Attorney Purnel1 interviewed several
Chicago experts and they told him that
if John Ketcham was in the mental
condition his friends describe just
previous to his death it will be compar-
atively easy to prove by an examiua-
ton of the brain that he was mentally
unsound. Mr.. Purne11 wired George
H. Ketcham to have the brain removed
and received word within half an hour
that his advice would be followed.

WILLIAM iNGLESS

Tells "A Remarkable story OF Crime TO
the Clevcinnd Police.
CLEVELAND o., March %. "A most
remarkable story of crime was that
told to Superintendent of Police Cor
ner and other police officials Wednes-
day morning, by William Ingless, one
of the men accused of firing the Kelly
block, on Superior street, this city, n
few nights ago. Ingless was arrested
and charged with arson. lngless con-
fessed as follows:
ION the night of the Kelly block fire,
/ went to see the performance at the
opera house. After the show, l re-
turned to the Kelly block, and going
up to where our printing Office was
located, | walked in, broke each of the
two candles previously secured in two,
and laid them under one of the cases
near some rags soaked in gasoline,
after lighting them.
After doing this, | came down and
loafed about the streets until 1920 a. M.
When the fire alarm sounded | was in
front OF the engine house, where /
went to see the boys slide down the
pole"
Ingless also confessed to having been
the author of forty incendiary fires in
Detroit. He was arrested four times
ia Detroit. 1t was the stuff saved from
the fire, on which 500 insurance was
obtained, that was brought here and
placed in the rooms of the Kelly block
Ingless father was member of the
Detroit fire department for many years
