STEELE TOOK THE CAT.
The City Jail is Emptied and Cleaned
I'm.

The new police force is now in good
working order, and any one visiting the
city Jail would see but little change
except that it has been cleaned up
considerably Day Jailer Gru5ts in
augurated his taking of office by clean
ing up things around the dingy old
prison Some of the old ruins which
Jailer Jones loved to look at, have been
removed.
Yesterday before noon every one OF
the IA prisoners was turned out. This
is the usual custom in city jails. Ac-
cordingly the new force started with an
empty Jail and all the opportunity they
wished TO fill it again.
Marshal I. A. Strauss was busy to-
day getting his affairs in shape. AS
sistant Marshal Jake owen will be on
day duty during July, and Deputy Mar
shall Tim Donovan on night duty. 1t is
probable that these two officers will al
ternate in day and night duty each
month
The first arrest by the new force was
made last evening when Arthur Brown,
one of the colOred volunteers from
Camp Leedy, was arrested for being in
toxicated. He is a member of Com
pany B of Lawrence, and says his home
is in Iowa During July, J. A Grubbs
will be day jailer, and A. w. Hopkins,
night jaiIer. Richard Boyd took charge
of the stone pile, his old position.
Ex-Chief Steele took the police sta
ton cat with him to his home. He is
on fishing trip today. There are sew
eraI police uniforms for sale today.

WAS KENT LET OUT?
It is Said That He Was Helped to
Make His Escape.


There promises to be a sensation in
the Noble Abner Kent case when the
facts in the matter develop which may
bring certain officers unpleasantly be-
fore the public. He is the fellow VINO
of attempting to murder his father IN
Macoupin county, Illinois, last March,
and thinking him dead robbed him of
81, 000 and fled.
Kent nysteriously disappeared from
the city jail some time during the night
of June 80.
Assistant Marshal j. Owens said to-
day: Frank Summers, who was act
ing iailer that night, left the jail at
ten minutes after twelve. / went INSIDE
afterward and read. If Kent got out
utes after Summers left. I don't think
he did this I believe he was either let
out, or he had a key and unlocked the
door. I wouldn't be surprised if he got
away as early as eight O'Clock. Chief
Steele ordered him turned out early
that night. I know he didn't get out
while I was in charge of the jail
Patrolman Close, who was the one
who found Kent and worked up the
arrest is indignant. Sheriff p. C.Daven-
port OF Macoupin county, Illinois. ar
rived in Topeka last evening. PATROL
man Close said today: Davenport told
man. He gave me his picture and it
is a good likeness of him. That man
was let out by some one, and I'm going
to find out who did it. I think l know
They didn't realize what a bad man
they had to deal with. I don't blame
owens and Summers at all, but I'll
make the man sweat who did it,

WILL BE PAVED.
Contract Let for the State House
Walks and Drives.

The executive council has awarded
the contract for paving the diagonal
walks and part of the drives on the
state house grounds. The contract
was awarded last evening to the Gibson
company of St. Louis, at $1.67 per yard.
The diagonal walks will be either eight
or ten feet in width-they should not be
less than ten feet, and they will run in
a winding course in much the same di-
rectlon as the cinder walks now IN use.
The base will be five inches of Gin
der and then five inches of concrete,
covered with a two inch layer of as
phalt.
But a small amount of the drives will
be paved now because of lack of
funds. The wide drive before the east
entrance will be covered with asphalt
and the walks around the flour beds
will also be paved. The space in front
of the north and south entrances will be
covered with asphalt and there will be a
walk IA feet wide paved in the middle
Of the wide drive on the west.
The architects figures made 1857
square yards in the drives and 100
yards in the diagonal walks. The
curbing which will be put in by KEEP
ley & Lucas aggregates 10000 feet.
The Bradley company of Topeka was
lower in the bidding by between one and
two hundred dollars. A member of the
let the contract to the ellison company
because it is stablished and under
stands the business. They have not
done any work in Topeka and we were
sure they would do their best on their
first work here"
The ellison company is represented by
Jonathan Myers.

Sworn In.

There is trouble in the ranks of COM
pany A, colored, Topeka.
The company was recruited to the fun
strength of 100 men. Several Joined who
wanted to be commissioned officers. In
fact there were about four candidates for
every commissioned office. When the
election took place there were nine who
did not receive an office and who conse-
quently felt sore. When Captain Ran
dolph went down to camp to muster in
the troops it was found that the Topeka
company had 80 men instead of 100. In
fact 10 of them had skipped out IN the
night without receiving pass
Captain Randolph decided to swear IN
those who remained who were eligible
First he wished to find out the character
of those present He asked how many
had been in jail, and over half the COM
pany stepped to the front. In looking over
the company three young boys from the
reform school were found who did not
want to go to war. Captain Randolph
asked them why they We're there if they
did not want to go, and they said super
intendent Hart of the reform school told
them they had to go. Two more We're
found who had been released from jail IN
order to join, and ten more were found
who seemed unfit morally. When the
company was sworn in there were but so
out Of the 100 that joined. and those who
did not receive commissioned office are
sore. yet and won't even go to the camp
to visit.

GERMANY NEUTRAL.
Cabinet Assured That She Will Not
Interfere in War.

Washington, July Assurance was
given at yesterdays sessionOf the cabi-
net of the expectation of the admins
tration that Germany would not inter-
fere at Manila. There was some dis
cussion on this point, but both the pres
ident and Secretary Day said they had
received assurances that there was no
unfriendly action contemplated on the
part of the German empire. They eX-
pressed the belief that there was no
real foundations for the reports of the
unfriendly attitude of Germany and of
radical steps contemplated by that gov
eminent, and indicated their personal
conviction that there need be no serious
apprehension on that score. Several
members of the cabinet apparently do
not share this confidence in the Ger
man attitude. The administration has
much confidence in the judgment and
tact of both Admiral Dewey and Gen
eral Merritt. The latest advices, it
was reported to the cabinet, were that
Admiral Camara's Spanish feet would
proceed through the Suez canal on it's
journey to the Philippine islands. This,
however, is discounted by previous ex-
pectatiOns and preparations and there
is confidence in the arrival of the Mon
terey, the Monandnock and the Charles
ton off Manila before Camara can pos
Sibly reach there.

BOY WAS BATTERED.
IncorrigibIe Hutchinson Youth Drag
ged Into Court.

Hutchinson, July 2-The most pc
culiar sight ever witnessed at the court
house is reported by the officers today.
Vincent Van Gundy, the little 12-year-
old son of Rev. w. A. Van Gundy of
this city, was brought in by his father
and turned over to the sheriff. The
boy was led in by a strong halter made
his neck several times.
The boy had refused to come to
breakfast and while the family were
eating took a, pony from the barn and
rode away. Rev. Van Gundy claims
that he found the boy down town trying
to sell the pony.
The boy was left with the sheriff
and it has been arranged for his father
to take him to Topeka. He has been in
the reform school before and was
paroled from that institution several
months ago.

MURAT HALsTEAD'S son
Sustains Severe Injuries While Rae
ing on Bicycle.

Washington, July 2.-Griff1n Halstead
one of the speediest bicycling racers in
the district, met with a serious accident
while training at International Park.
HaIstead who is at present riding in
magnificent form, was making an at
tempt to lower the quarter mile pace
record when the accident occurred It
appear that a triplet that was pacing
him swung out too far on the first bank
and accidentally crowded Halstead
with terrific force into the fence on the
turn Halstead struck the railing head
down and was hurled backward on the
embankment It was found that Hal
stead's front teeth were all broken Off
his gums cut, a long cash in his chin,
arms, legs and back severely laeerated
and bruised and he was otherwise bad
~ injured. 1t is doubtful whether or
not Halstead viii ever race again. Hal
stead is a son of Murat Halstead and
is chief page in the house of representa-
tives, a place he has held for several
wears.
