There is no longer any doubt that
A. G. Stacey is crazy, as q result Of
his unrequited love for Mrs. N. Lou
Helm. This morning a large number
OF circulars containing eight columns
OF reading matter, nearly enough to
I'LL page and half Of the Journal,
were received by prominent parties in
town, containing an alleged full his
tory OF Stacey's courtship, marriage
and subsequent troubles with his
wife. Some time ago Stacey printed
in the Newton Republican confession
and retractlon Of all he had ever said
OF Mrs. Helm and made an affidavit
that his accusations against her were
the result Of deranged mind, caused
by jealousy. The circulars received
here this morning explain his confess
sion by announcing that he wrote it
through being led to believe that a
reconciliation was In sight, but after
enduring year Of contempt and con-
tumely, he is forced to retract his
confession and give plain history Of
his relations with his wife. The cir.
cular is full of sensational charges,
put in language that willlikely result
in his arrest and conviction for using
the mails for the transmission OF OBJ.
scene literature. At the top of the
circular, in large type, are the words:
"Record Of Mrs. NJ. Louise Helm,
Room 5, Bentley Block, *Newton,
Kans." The circular recouats how
Stacey met Mrs. Helm at a boarding
house situated on Quincy street, in
Topeka. Their troubles began after
their marriage and are known In a
general way to the public.-Journal,

HE MUST SERN E.



The opinion OF the court by Chief
Justice Judd was filed yesterday in the
matter of the application of Geo. A
Davis for writ of habeas corpus
The decision says, "A Circuit Judge
acting by authority Of law in a judi
cial capacity has the right to punish
for contempt OF court
A fine for contempt of court havine
been imposed and not paid, the often
der may be imprisoned until it is
paid The decision is supported by
numerous citations. The clerk is di-
rected to note on the writ that it is
discharged, and the petitioner was re-
manded to the custody of the Marshal
Mr.. Davis asked the court if he was
10 be confined in a convict prison
where thieves, murGeTers, etc. are i'm
prisoned? He submitted that he was
not legally imprisoned; that he would
bring another writ up as he was not
a criminal and that he would be the
last one to go to prison. The court
remarked that it was for the Marshal
TO see whether or not Mr. Davis was
in a proper confinement. Mr. Davis is
comfortably placed at the police sta
ton for the remainder of his ten DAYS.
In closing the decision the Supreme
Court says:
ut seems to us also that both OF
these contempts were in facie curiae.
The obnoxious bill of exceptions was
read TO the judge. The second con
tempt was language addressed to the
judge, and was far more serious in its
nature.
TT is the duty OF this court to see to
it that the several judges and magfs-
trates Of this Republic are protected
in the exercise OF their judicial duties.
and their valid judgments respected. -

ENCOURAGED MANUFACTURE
CAR WHEELS AND TIMBER ARE
 OBTAINED HERE.

Engineer Curtis was on the stand in United States Commissioner Heacock' s chambers for nearly two hours yesterday afternoon testifying in answer to ques- tions propounded by William r. Herrin and E. s. Pillsbury, attorneys for the Southern Pacific Company. Shortly be- fore o'clock the direct examination was concluded and it was announced by Dep uty Attorney General Carter that he would begin a lengthy oss-examination of MT. Curtis this afternoon, beginning at o'clock.
 ''State in a general way" asked Mir. Herrin. "the benefit accruing to the busi- ness of the State of California by the op- eration of these overland HneS."
 ''The lines lie out of the region which produces any timber" replied MT. Curtis, and but little if anything of the mate rial and supplies required for the opera tion and maintenance of the track. In this condition it results that all the materials required for the maintenance of the line, bridges, culVertS, vessels, etc, are large ly shipped out from California. The ties, for instance. come almost exclusively from the redwood region and from the timber belt in the northern part of the State. The material for the maintenance of the cars and locomotives is largely produced in California and the repairs are made in the company's shops in Cali fornia. The effect of this has been to in- crease the trade in timber Tn tnlS state, to employ many men in the shops In re- pairs and in the making of carwheels, and the money received by these men Is disbursed by them in this State or put into the savings banks of this State to a very large extent. The money paid to the lumber and supply men finds its way into the channels of trade here. All that is required for the maintenance of the line the woodwork and the manufacture of large quantities of material for the line from the eastern boundary of the State to the eastern terminus of the line is pro- cured in California,
 With reference to the maintenance of the line from Yuma to Fl Paso, with the exception of some timber for the main- tenance of the culverts, I would say of this line exactly what I would have said of the Central Pacific. All its material is purchased from producers and dealers in California or Is manufactured in the shops here"
 The witness then read from memor- andum the average daily compensation of railway employees in the eastern DOT ton of the United States-east of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. In the East the average compensation Is $l ~ per day. On the Pacific Coast 1t is $2 54 per day. For the year ending June 30, iS97 the average daily rate of wages on the Pacific system was g 50 If the South ern Pacific Company had paid Its em- ployes at the Eastern rate of wages the company would have saved 8, 900 900. The average in California is a little higher than that paid on the Pacific system.

John Elliott, long recognized as the au- thority on amateur athletic sport on this dent Harry McMillan of the Amateur Athletic Association. MT. Elliott has been appointed delegate at large on the board of governors of the great association gov erning athletes in this country. The im- portance of the position may be gathered from the fact that there are but five of these delegates. They are headed by w B. Curtis, the father of American ath- letics.
 The delegates pass upon all matters per- taining to the good of athletic sports. As their title implies, they represent all the country and not one section.
