STREET CAR vESTIBULES.
Frances Willard Union, W. c. T. q.
Will Work for the Protection
of Car Men.

The Topeka State Temperance union
has been making an effort to secure
vestibules for the cars used on the city
street railway.
The following communication con-
corning the work of the union has been
received at the Journal office:
Topeka, Kan, Jan. 81, 1897.
To the Editor of The State Journal:
Sir, it is due to the Frances Willard
union of the w. c. T. U. of Topeka to
say that this union has considered the
question carefully and concluded that it
was the duty of the union to espouse
trio street car companies of the state of
Kansas far enough to ask such COM
panies as a matter of common humani-
ty to protect their employees by VeSu-
buleS in the winter from the inclemency
of the weather. Everybody who has OBJ
served or who will think of it a moment
must know that exposure at the end of
these cars in real winter weather is the
most trying place on earth, and that it
is simply inhuman to keep anyone in
such place when a. very little expense
would protect them.
We are pleased to find so many of
the people to whom we presented our
petitions ready and anxious to sign. w e
are presenting the same in duplicate to
the legislature for the purpose of Sc
curing legislation. The full strength of
our movement is not shown by our pc
titions, however as two of our largest
petitions have been stolen, or lost, by
interested parties. We want this known
generally so that the legislature may
see that the people here are in favor of
such legislation as soon as 1T can be
formulated.

SCHAEFER'S DAYS DONE.
The Injury to His Wrist Will Compel
Him to Quit Playing.

st. Louis, Mo-, Jan. 22.-In all prob
HARDEST and ex-champion of America,
will soon have to retire as a profess
sional His wrist, which was severely
sprained by a fall from a street car in
Chicago last winter, is the cause.
DR.. Heber Robarts, a specialist, has
made critical examination of Schae-
fer's sprained wrist with the X rays
and revealed a MANNED condition of the
bones and 1igaments that surprised the
crack roller of the ivory balls As
result Schaefer will amend his suit
against the street railroad company for
damages and ask for $1G0000 instead
of $4,000.
Three negatives were taken of the
wrist. The hand sets crooked on the
wrist, slanting downward toward the
radial side when lying in a natural po-
sition.
Tt has been known for some time that
Schaefer's recent form warranted the
belief that the Wizard might have
gone back" 1t was supposed by those
who were close to the great little
player that his injuries had affected his
playing more than he himself cared to
acknowledge. although his form in the
three cornered tournament in Central
Music hall, Chicago, some months ago,
gave hopes that he might recover all
of the cleverness of stroke that made
his name common all over the world.
He has played we'll several times since
the accident that fractured the arm for
a second time, but has not been called
upon to do anything that required a
great tax of endurance.

"LEXOWING" IS BEGUN.
Testimony is Being Taken by theCom-
mittee at Kansas City.

Kansas City, Jan. 22-''Lexowing'' was
begun in earnest here this morning when
the house committee of seven appointed
to investigate the alleged corruption exist
ing in the local department began its
work. The committee with Representa-
tive Winfield s. Pope, of Jefferson city,
acting as its chairman, arrived in the
city last evening and Immediately began
preparation for the investigation by Sc
lecting a large parlor at the Midland hotel
in which to hold its sessions.
Promptly al $3.50 this morning Col. VIM.
r. Nelson, proprietor of the Kansas City
Star was called before the committee as
it's first witness, the Star having pub
lished many cases of alleged unrestricted
gambling and shown up other eases Of
improper police dOingS Col. Nelson's
evidence was in the nature of a reitcra-
ton of these charges.
Following him Mayor James NJ. Jones,
whose previous term as police judge put
him in touch with gamblers and the po-
lice force and it workings was called. 1t
was generally expected that he would
prove one of the most valuable witnesses
to come before the committee

TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.
Furnished by the Associated Press to
the State Journal.

chicago, jan IL
WHEAT-Opened steady at slight de-
cline. The cables were rather puzzling.
Liverpool was distinctly firm in the face
of the decline here yesterday and this
proved the factor in the strength immed-
lately after the opening but on the other
hand, English country markets were dull
and weak with but little demand. North
west receipts were moderate. amounting
to 276 cars against 327 last week and 1856
last year. Opening sales of May were
made at 1914 G793sc. compared with yester-
days closing price of 793sM79l@c, and adj
vanced at once to 791AG795sc. A reaction
of 791sGI7914c then took place. but later the
price again advanced to 791zc, second ca
bleS reporting a I'D advance.
CORN-WaS quiet and steady May
opened a, shade lower at 24c with wheat
but firmed up to 241sc under covering by
shorts. Local receipts amounted to 23i
cars.
OATS-Showed little activity during the
first hour. The feeling was steady with
wheat and corn. Local receipts were 219
cars. May opened unchanged at 1I9sc.
sold a shade lower and steadied at the
opening price.
PROVISIONS-Were weak influenced
by a lower hog market. Packers were
liberal sellers of pork. May pork opened
21ac lower at $795 and declined to $1,000
1921. May lard opened about PFC lower
at S4.021zQ405. May ribs unchanged at

Passing Worthless Checks

Atchison, Jan. 22--society is excited
Young society blood, on the charge of
forgery. Crum, it is alleged, has been
passing forged checks on Kansas hotel
keepers. He Travelled under the aliases
of Charles E. Overton and Tom Garlic
ton. L. A. Podvant of Holton hotel,
located the forger as living in Atchison,
and arriving here today identified VIII
Crum as the forger. Crum claimed to
his Atchison friends that he was travel
ing for the Crown Shoe Backing Co., of
st. Joseph.
on December % the Clifford hotel at
Seneca, cashed a $50 check in favor of
Tom Carleton, signed by the National
Chemical company, and drawn on the
Tootle-Lemon bank of st. Joseph. 1t
proved to be a forgery. On January 13
Landlord Podvant changed a similar
check in favor of Charles E. OvertOn.
John Gilchrist of Clifford hotel, Seneca,
saw Carleton shake hands with a Hol-
ton man, and the clue was traced until
Crum's arrest followed POdvant says
