HOW TRACY WILL WIN.
Senator PIatfs Reasons for the Faith
That's in Him.


New York, Oct. Ex-senator Platt has
given out a statement in which he
says:
General Tracy has won the election
There are three Democratic candidates
in the fieId-among whom the Demo-
cratic vote will be divided. The Dem
ocrats have never had a majority in
the territory now consolidated since
the enactment of the present election
law. They used to have majOritieS, any
kind of majority that suited their taste
and convenience. They had absolute
control of the electoral machinery at
every poll.
Whatever their present vote may be,
it is going to be divided between Van
Wyck, George, Low and Gleason. Van
Wyck will probably get the most of it.
George will get a huge portion of it and
Low will get a substantial remainder.
Low is the candidate of four Democrat
ic organizations, the Ship Democracy,
the CARGO Democracy, the Purroy De-
More and more as the canvass has pro-
ceeded he has become identified before
the public with the Democratic party.
He is the embodiment of the Holier-
Than-Thou element of the Cleveland
party. He is a revival of Cleveland
ism. He has the support of all that
noisy and insOlent crowd that grovels
at the feet of Cleveland. He has been
brought forward as the expression of
their notions and their hopes and that
which makes his success impossible is
the minds of the community, that
through Low this Cleveland clique are
endeaVoring to recover their lost pres
tlge for use in 1900"

Will be Bid by the U. P. Syn
dicate to Prevent Delay.

New York, Oct. 25.-The Union Pa
cifc reorganization committee has
made the following announcements:
The attorney general has notified this
committee that he proposes to ask the
court for an adjournment of the fore
closure sale of the Kansas Pacific and
Union Pacific railway property to De-
cember IS, so as to postpone final dis
position until after congress shall have
met This action is no doubt taken to
free the administration from embar-
rassment.
1.-The reorganization committee, has,
however, reached the conclusion that
the interest of the security holders, rep
resented by it and of the syndicate fur
niShing the funds to hnance the reOr-
ganizatiOn, demand recognition without
any further delay. IN this situation the
committee cOntemplateS, so as to gain
prompt possession of the Union Pacific
line to oppose any adjournment of
the sale OF the main line and to bid it
in, if need be for the full amount of the
governments claim, the additional sum
involved in this being eight million dol
lars.
LAS to the Kansas lines the forecIos-
ure of the first liens upon the subsi-
died divisions of the Kansas Pacific
and when these foreclosures shall have
been accomplished, the reorganization
of the Kansas Pacific line will be COM
pIeted as claimed.
''AlIotments made under the plans Of
the Kansas Pacific holders and amount
ing to about fifteen million dollars in
new bonds and twenty millions in pre-
ferred stocks will remain reserved for
the reorganization of the Kansas line
The amount of the new first mort
gage bonds to be issued for the pur-
pose of the reorganization of the Union
Pacific main line will not exceed sew
enty million dollars and of preferred
stock fifty-five million dollars.

HORSE STAYED TOO LONG.
John F. McManus Complains of City
Health O6cer's Action.

Veterinary Surgeon George H. Hap
good has a contract with the city which
requires that he remove all dead ami
mails from "the streets and alleys of
Topeka" and because the contract
mentions specifically streets and al
leys," Mr.. Hapgood holds that $35 per
month does not pay him for removing
animals from easements or other lOca-
tions. At least Mr.. HapgOOd failed to
remove a dead horse from the base
ment of the tailoring eStabliS iShment of
John F. McManus on Kansas avenue
until Mr.. McManuS had guaranteed him
So for his work.
The horse, which fell down the area
way in the rear of the tailor shop Fri
the basement by policeman, there fell
down and failed to get up, and was
there shot about 3 o'clock Saturday af-
ternOOn, was not removed until shortly
after 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, 40
hours after he had made his entrance
and "a hours after he had been killed.
Mr.. McManuS is consequently much
disturbed in mind this morning. The
scent of carbOhc acid and something
that isn't carbolic acid which permeates
his basement is responsible for his agi-
tation.
Topeka people have every right to
be proud of the police force and city
health force" said he this morning in
a sarcastic tone. From the chief
of police 1 went to the city physician,
and from him to the dead animal man
ager on Saturday trying to get that
horse removed from my basement, and
finally, after guaranteeing DR.. Hapgood
$5 yesterday afternoon, in face of the
fact that on Saturday he told me that
he did not want me to figure on paying
him for the work, the horse was taken
away. Although l was willing to pay
almost any amount to have the horse
removed, DR.. HapgOOd made sure that
he would get some money out of me by
purpOsely leaving the animal in my
basement until it became offensive. He
knew that by doing SO, I would gladly
pay him for removing the animal even
if I had no intention of doing so orig
inally. It's simply an outrage"
Both Chief Steele and City Physician
Mitchell stated to Mr.. McManus on Sat
urday that they would see that the
animal was removed from the base
ment by DR.. Hapgood. For some rea-
con Dr. Hapgood failed to take the ami
NAL away until Sunday afternoon.
