MR.. JACKs0N's MoDEsTY.
Was Not on Duty When He Sent in
His Bill for Stenographer's Fees.

The different constructions placed on
the fee and salary law in regard to the
fees of court stenographers have been
causing the attorney general and audit
or of state more or less trouble since
the law went into effect, but both Off
Gals were startled today at the con-
struction placed on the law by D. G.
jackson. stenOgrapher in the Sixth Ju-
diciaI district.
The district is composed of Linn.
Bourbon and Crawford counties, and
under the new law the stenographer is
allowed $50. So but Mr.. Jackson today
sent in his bill for January services,
charging up to the state $3.50 for each
of the three counties in the district.
If this construction could be made to
stand, stenographers of some of the
western districts, including dozen or
more counties, would become wealthy If
they were successful in holding their
Jobs for a few years.
State Auditor Morris hung Mr.. jack
sons bill on the hook, and the Sixth dis
trict stenographer will have to prepare
a new account against the state before
he can even draw $62. so.

MIR. Simpson Calls Attention of the
House to Mr.. Dingley's English
Hat

Washington, Feb. 4.-The house spent
yesterday considering the Notifications
appropriation bill. In reality the major
portion of the time was consumed in the
discussion of political topics. The exist
ence of prosperity in this country was
again the main question of dispute. The
feature of the day was the discovery by
Mr.. Simpson, the Kansas Populist, and
the exploitation of the alleged fact that
Mr.. Dingley, chairman of the ways and
means committee, wore London made
pot hat.
made in New York. The London trade
mark was simply placed there to please
the anglomaniacs who always preferred
things because they were English.
Mr.. Simpson pop, kan-) again took up
the controversy he had a few days agO
with Mr.: Pitney Rep., N. j. over the
trusts which. he said. were organized in
New Jersey to prey on Kansas and other
states
In a humorous vein he. said the people
of New Jersey were not to blame that
legislation in that state was knocked
down to the highest bidders, as they were
the descendants of the Hessians. When
asked by Mr.. Sam Smith (Rep., MichO
why he had done nothing to exterminat tie
the trusts, Mr. Simpson replied that he
was helpless in the house In this house"
he said, the speaker is the whole thing.
1 had we'll fight a bill in the Potomac
river as in this house"
Mr.. Pitney, in reply to Mr.. Simpson, re
ferred Indirectly to the fact that Mr..
Simpson was born in New Brunswick.
He remembered, he said, that after the
and traitors in New England were de-
ported to the neighbOring province of
New Brunswick. He did not mean to i'm
ply he said, that Mr.. Simpsons ancestry
was necessarily tainted by that fact. but
he asserted his pride in his own ances-
try. He also paid glowing tribute to
Without completing the bill, the house
at sos p. m adjourned.

LUCULLIAN BANQUET.
Proposed by Charlie Holiday for the
Democratic Day.

Last evenings Leavenworth Stand
ard: Q. K. Holiday, 5r., noted kansan,
was over from Topeka yesterday
on business. He said the Democratic
banquet Feb. "A would be the biggest
affair of the kind that was ever held in
the state and the indications were that
there would be over 500 of the faithful
present.

Mr.. Holiday also talked some about
the failure of prohibition in Topeka.
He said it was all a mistake, that To-
peka had not more than IFS saloons
over LeaVenWOrth. The Committee of
Seventeen raised $6110 at the meeting
of the State Temperance union and he
thought that would last them for a
week or so, maybe a month. Then they

a GIGANTIC SWINDLE.
Railroads Lose Thousands of Dollars
in Bogus Orders for Passes.

Cincinnati Feb. 4.-The railways here
have discovered that they have been
swindled out of thousands of dollars by
bogus orders of the mayor for pauper
passes. These orders were printed and
bound in pads, with the name of the
mayor and his secretary printed on
them. Instead of signing these orders
the city seal or stamp had been used,
but through carelessness these orders
were finally given out without stamp
ing. Recently many pads got into the
hands of scaIpers, and have been sold
for months by ticket brokers. The dis
coveries date back as far as last OctO-
Der. One railway traced over $1,000
worth of them today on its line and
other lines are proceeding with the in
Vestisation.
Joseph and Lyman Hess were arrest
ed on the charge of purloining charity
passes from the mayors Office. Their
brother Harry has been employed in
that Office. Samuel Phillips was arrest
ed, charged with selling these orders. on
which tickets were issued at the ticket
Office. Other arrests will follow.

PLOT AGAINST LEE.

Proclamation Expressing Bitter
ness Tow ard the Consul General.
Tampa, Fla, Feb. 2O.-The Havana
horror and the suspicious it has
aroused shows up bitter proclamation
secretly circulated in Havana some
time ago Of plot to blow up Gen. Lee
and the consulate. The following is n
literal translation of the proclamation:
"Spaniards! The time has arrived
when the patience of the loyal has
vanished before the decided protection
which the Americans lend to the bands
Of turbulent foragers who lay waste
our country. Death to them! The
moment has arrived to lower the colos-
sal head of the Americans and prove
to them that our uncomfortable nation
can reach the doors of the capital at
Washington. demand reparation for
the grave offenses which they daily
infiict upon us, expel, yes, eXpel, with
out delay. Consul General Lee, who.
with his family, is nothing more than
the miserable secretary of the bandits.
Away, away with the Yankee con-
sulate protector Of criminals of the
lowest degree. Every moment the ac-
ton Of justice is impeded by Ameri-
can interference. Are we to continue
our liberation? No, no, thousand
times, no! Consul General Lee, when
the stupendous explosion comes that
will carry CONSERVATION to the whole
city, If you have strength left. it would
be we'll for you to HE yourself to your
country and relate what has happened
to- you. Long life to Spain! Long life
to Spanish Cuba! Death to our enc
mies!'

Washington, Feb 20.-The navy de-
sp0rtment has received the following
message from Capt. Sigsbee at Ha-
svana: with Gen. Lee and Cowles
today visited Capt. Gen. Blanco and
other chiefs Of civil and military
branches Of government and returned
thanks for great demonstration of
sympathy and for their care for the
dead and for other good Offices now be-
Ing exercised In our behalf. Received
additional assurances of sympathy and
desire to help. Spanish authorities feel
situation acutely. have promised to
maintain official character of all work
done on wreck Of the Maine. No fric-
ton anywhere"
The reference to the official charac-
ter of the work is interpreted at the
navy department to mean that no
divers hired by newspapers will be 81
lowed to Investigate the wreck.
AS to the published statements that
Spain intends to claim a joint interest
In the work of the court Of inquiry,
harbor regulations Of any civilized
port the local authorities are bound to
make an official investigation of any
wreck occurring in their jurisdiction,
irrespective of the nationality of the
vessel or Of any investigation by an
other government in case it is craft
owned by foreign power. AS the
matter is understood here, this is the
only right Spain claims in the case and
1t is conceded to be entirely fair. This
statement of the case was confirmed ut
the Spanish legation. A dispatch was
received that the coast survey steamer
Bache, with divers and apparatus
aboard, had sailed from Tampa for
Havana.
