Will Be Seven Races Each Day-East
WheeImen From Out of the State

At a meeting of the board of directors
of the T. A A. w. at which Chairman
Irwin of the racing board and H. D.
Crosby, official Handicapped were pres
ent the details for the bicycle races to
be given August 6 and were gone over
and an attractive programme arranged
for the meet
There will be seven races each day,
both for the professional and amateur
riders. There will be plenty of good
handicap events, at a mile and two
miles and on the open races time linn
it will be placed sufficient to make it
interesting for whoever wins.
J. B. Hayden has offered a handsome
medal valued at $35 for an amateur
mile handicap. The t A A. W. $25
trophy won last Saturday by Webb
Stevenson, which must be won three
times to entitle the holder to keep 1t,
will be raced for again at this meet
and Webb will have to ride harder than
he did in the Bunch race to win out.
None but Topeka riders can ride for
this trophy.
1t is expected to secure all the cracks
who will ride at the state meet at Law
renee and on through the Kansas cir
cult. These will probably include such
fast men as the Coburn brothers of St.
Louis, Big Wells of California and 9TH
ers equally as famous, who never
rode on the Kansas circuit before.
All of the races will be well filed and
some fine sport will be afforded those
who like to see good bicycle racing.
Secretary Hickerson is busy sending
out entry blanks today.

AFTER WINTERS SCALP.
Cheyennes Shoot at the Man Who
Helped Arrest Little WhirIwind.

Miles City, July 1.-THE Cheyenne
Indians are again making trouble for
the white people near the reservation.
= number of bucks armed attacked the
home of Matt Winter, firing several
shots inside the house Mrs. Winter,
children and hired man who were in the
house fed by the rear way and escaped
without injury.
1t will be remembered that Matt Win
ter was one of the deputy sheriffs who
ccompanied Sheriff Gibbs to arrest
Little Whirlwind not long ago and it
was the general opinion at that time
would die soon at the hands of the
Cheyenne. The authorities have again
asked Senator Carter to bring the mat
ter before Secretary Bliss. and see if
some permanent relief from these red
savages cannot be obtained County
Attorney Porter is now at the reserva-
ton More complaints will be made
and more Indians arrested and it is
hoped that the military authorities will
instruct the agent to cooperate with
the sheriff this time and avoid all trou-

S3OO OR NOTHING.
| Senate Issues an Ultin atum to Ar
NOR Plate Makers

Washington, July 1.-THE price to be
paid for armor plate for the three new
battleshfps now in course of construction
was the theme of extended debate in the
senate yesterday. Late in the day an
amendment to the deficiency appropria-
ton bill was agreed to restricting the
price of armor plate to $500 per ton. or
$125 less than the amendment reported by
the committee and recommended by the
navy department the minimum rate
acceptable to the armor contractors.
Another amendment inserted in the bill
directed the secretary of the navy to in
vestigate as to the establishment of a
government armor factory and to report
to the next session of congress. During
the debate Mr.. Hale urged that the failure
to equip the battleships with arnor would
humiliate the United States in the eyes
of the world and would lessen our naval
power at a time of possible foreign COM
plications. After inserting the armor
amendments, the deficiency appropriation
BILL the last of the great supply meas
ures, was passed.
Mr.. White secured the passage of his
joint resolution directing the secretary of
war to proceed with the construction of
a breakwater at San Pedro, Cal.

Protector of the Panama Canal Scheme
to Talk it Over With the President.

New York, July IA special to the
Journal and Advertiser from Washing
ton says:
Nathan Appleton of Boston, who is
here in the interest of the Panama ca
nal in an interview, outlines the ma
ture of his visit to the president
Il am here" he said, Ito further
scheme which will result in the COM
pIetion of the Panama canal with the
co-opera ton of American capital L
have an appointment with the president
this week and at that interview shall
present my plans. My purpose is to OBJ
tain some official Endorsements or rec
concentrations showing the interest of
this government and the people in the
canal enterprise. 1 think the French
shareholders would be willing to sell
all of their interest in the canal for
s10O. 900 600. If the French shareholders
do not accept the proposition to close
out the canal at 800 ,O00, 600, then think
they would agree to take US into part
nersnip for the completion of the water
way.
"A commission of engineers, chosen
half by the new company and half by
the liquidation committee, will be sent
to the spot to examine the work They
will determine whether it will be profit
able to attempt the completion OF the
canal The excavation, since work was
resumed, amounts to 1850. 600 cubic met
ers, or 1, SOC, 900 cubic yards. In addition
to this the construction of a deep water
harbor has been begun at 1abuca, the
Pacific end of the canal, and great
pier is being built.
Il shall be in Washington for several
days. I find that Senator Lodge and
some others who were warm supporters
of the Nicaragua canal proposition, have
studied the Panama project and are
now quite in favor of it. The COlom-
b:an government wants US to complete
the Panama canal, and even if we did
share the work with France. the re
suits would be very beneficial to our

HUNG IN EFFICY.
Enraged Erie Citizens Show
Their Feelings
In the Matter of Pardoning
"WilIie" Sell.
THE BOY MURDERER
And Lawyer Cox Have Their
Likenesses Swung High.
Citizens Threaten Violence if
Sell Returns to Erie.
THE BOY MURDERER

Erie, July 14-Some of the citizens of
this town were much surprised yester-
day to see hanging across Main street
in the business center of the town the
efigies of Willie Sell and Attorney c.
A. Cox
They were placed there by number
of enraged citizens some time Monday
night and allowed to swing to the
breeze the greater part of the day, be-
fore being cut down Placards orn2-
mented the front of each and read
Willie Sell, Murderer" and C y
Cox, one Hundred Dollars"
This action was brought about by the
recommended ion of the state board for
pardon and the thought that pardon
might follow
The people of this vicinity are very
indignant and a lynching will result II
Sell, returns to this county, as three
fourths of the citizens believe him gull
ty.
The talk on the street for the last few
days has been solely of the Sell Inurder
and the action of c. A Cox in his ef-
fort TO secure the pardon Cox was
prosecuting attorney when the murder
ed the conviction of Sell. and now ap-
pears and pleads the boys innocence
He is said to have received 800 there
for Three-fourths of the people here
believe that Sell is guilty and talk OF
violence is heard on the street.
Unless Gov. Leedy interferes and sets
the fears of the people at rest mob vio-
Ience may be the result The action OF
the county board, the city council and
officers of the township most interested
in the case has been cast aside as
worthy OF no notice, the people say
This is expressed in nearly every group
of men gathered on the street today
Gov. Leedy has been asked TO visit Erie
and see the people who knew the Sell
family during their lifetime and hear
what their neighbOrs have to say The
sentiment is very bitter against Sell.
Many think the governor will investi-
gate before he takes action In that
case it is believed that the wrong done
this community will be righted- In
case Il pardon is granted Sell will be re-
arrested and tried on the charge of kill
ing his mother, sister and brother, he
having been tried and convicted on but
one charge, that of killing his father.
