GOV. LEEDY GONE.
Will be at Austin, Texas, for Some
Days on Railroad Matters.

Governor Leedy left today for Aus
tin, Texas, where he will deliver an ad-
dress upon the railroad question before.
the Texas legislature. The governor
accepted this invitation some weeks
ago and the visit is combined with the
investigation of the transportation
problem by the committee representing
the Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas legis-
latures, with the view of securing joint
action in reductions of passenger and
freight rates.
1t is extremely probable that Cover
nor Leedy will rem, in at Austin to
hear the investigation which will begin
Friday under the direction of the inter
state commerce commission upon the
complaint lodged with the commission
by the Kansas board of railroad COM
missiOners.
Should the governor do this he will
not be home this week. If his trip is
limited to the speech before the Texas
legislature he will return to Topeka
Saturday.

bly, Intended to Affect Legislation.
New York, April 12.-The delay in
the exhibition of the pictures taken of
the itzsimmCns-C -COrbett fight has
caused a rumor to circulate to the eff
feet that the three machines fixed at
the ringside failed to work and that the
negatives are worthless. AS neither
Dan Stuart, Enoch J. Rector nor any
other person connected with the ar
rangements for placing the moving
pictures before the public has said
anything concerning the postponement
of the exhibition, the impression pre-
walls that the process was a success
and that Stuart is waiting because of
the movements now pending in the
legislatures of a number of states, and
also in congress, looking to the passage
of laws preventing the exhibition of the
pictures. 1t is understood that the
impression that the machines broke
down was allowed to spread in order
to diminish the enthusiasm of those
persons who were pushing the adverse
legislation.
It is possible that the pictures, if
successfully taken, will not be shown
until the present extraordinary session
of congress adjOurns, in order that
sentiment may not be stirred up that
might cause the enactment into law of
Senator Hoar's bill to prevent the
transportation of the pictures in inter-
state commerce.

Counterfeiting Case on Trial.

The April term of the United States dis
trict court opened this afternoon with the
case of J. N. Numa, of Marquette, Kan,
charged with counterfeiting. Muma had
a trial in the United States court year

is said to have conducted a counterfeiting
den at Marquette with a man named Nc

ing to pass some of the coun terfeit coin,
and was sent to the Missouri penitentiary.

SILVER STATUES FATE.
A Decision by Judge Hazen as to the
Litigation.

In the district court this morning
Judge Hazen sustained the interven-
gener. Horton &, Orr and Cash Hender-
son, merchant of Wichita, in the case
involving the Ada Rehan silver statue.
This decision means that both law firm
and merchant may become parties in
the litigation for the purpose of recoV-
ering, or attempting to recover, amounts
which both claim are due them from
the Montana Silver Statue company
Waggener, Horton & Orr claim 81, 900
for professional services rendered the
general manager of the company, and
Henderson claims $500 damages for
breach of contract.
And while the litigation progresses,
the much admired silver statue lies
boxed up in the basement of BarnuT
store It will probably continue to lie
there for months to come, as the main
case has not yet been set for trial.
