State Board of R. R. Commissioners
Ask Reforms That Will Make the
Board Useful

In their forthcoming report, which will
appear about the first of January, the
state board of railroad commissioners
will recommend that the law governing
the terms of office of the members of
the board shall be so changed that they
will rotate. In this way there would be
an experienced member on the board at
In their recommendations for railroad
legislation the board will suggest the
following:
"First-That the board of railroad
commissioners shall be empowered to es-
tablish and prescribe a maximum
schedule for freight rates, and to re-
wise and readjust the same from time
to time as conditions require, for the
railroads doing business in the state,
to and from all points within the state.
Second-That it shall be empowered
to make and prescribe the classifcatiOns
of freight.
"Third-That it should be empowered
to classify the railroads in fixing freight
rates according to the gross amount of
their respective annual earnings within
the state.
1.-The law should surround the exercise
of these powers with all due and proper
safeguards, so that orders of the board,
when made, would be valid and en-
time and place of hearing should be
given to the railroad companies affect
ed, reasonable time for preparation for
the examination and Investigation, and
opportunity for the presentation of evil
dence and argument, in order that there
should be full and fair determine
ton of the questions involved.
I'm addition to the penalties, or SINH
lar ones, denounced by section 20 of the
present law against the refusal to obey
an order of the board, the law should
provide that the supreme court shall
have power to compel, by mandamus, or
other proper legal process, upon the ap-
plicatiOn of the board, compliance with
any and all orders and decisions of the
board, made under any provisions of the
law which the court shall find to be
just and reasonable; and the findings.
orders and decisions of the board should
be made prima facie evidence of the
truth of the facts and statements there
in contained" j."

SHE WOULDN'T SINK.
The Teresa Refused to Go Down Re-
gardless of the Efforts of
Her Crew.

New York, Nov. 23.-The steamer
AntiIla is at preseht in TINS port. Her
second officer, Edward Webber said to-
day that when the steamer was at Cat
island, the Infanta Maria Teresa was
lying in about Is feet of water and the
surf was breaking over her. She was
lying not on the rocks but with her
nose in the sand.
Had the surf not been so high I
believe that we could have pulled her
off" said Mr.. Webber.
Il questioned the natives and learned
from them that the Maria Teresa first
appeared in the Offing about o'clock
in the morning, the Thursday after she
was abandoned. She rode in graceful
skillful guidance she could not have
gone ashore at a better place. She went
on the shore at Il o'clock the same
morning in which she was sighted.
Tt is my opinion as well as
opinion of others on Cat is
land that for some reason an attempt
was made by those on the Maria Teresa
in the storm.
'An the square port holes above the
water line were left open, but in spite
of this there was only three feet of wa
ter in her when she came ashore. I be-
Heve that the crew when they left her
were anxious that might be the last
of her. She is lying at present with a
very slight list to port AS her stern
is pointed to the breakers the waves
as they break near the stern run along
side making little vibration. The
pumps were all right and the working
parts are above water. I believe that
the vessel will not go to pieces but will
military masts have gone by the board
and are lying on each side of her.

FACTS ABOUT TOPEKA.
Needed a Compendium of Statistics
to Be Sent to Enquirers.

Major T. J. Anderson, secretary of the
Commercial club says that he loses
many opportunities to do Topeka a
great deal of good because there is not
available a compendium of facts con-
cerning the city
Secretary Anderson says that he pro-
poses to have the necessary statistics
collected as soon as possible and col
Elaborated in pamphlet form for the con-
venience of the club and the business
men generally who are interested in
Topeka.
Among the things Major Anderson
will have included in the pamphlet are:
The population of the city.
Value of all property in the city.
Value of manufacturing enterprises.
Capital invested in manufacturing.
Capital invested in business ventures.
Number of hands employed in factor
les.
Number of people employed in busi-
ness.
Value of railroad property.
Number Of people employed in rail-
road shops.

ing in the Commercial club rooms. He
says that naturally the people who are
peka in a friendly way than any 9TH
ers are the real estate men and he Will
ask them to look after the collection of
the data for his compendium of facts
a about Topeka.
The plan is to have the pamphlets
sent out by business men and others
who write letters. 1t is proposed to
print sc, 900 of them.

Passengers and Crew of the
Z Steamer Jessie
Massacred at the Mouth of the
KuskOWim River.
THEY WE'RE RESCUED
From Drowning Only to Be
FOully Murdered Later.
All the Party Were Slain
While They Were Sleeping.

Port Townsend, Wash, Nov. 23.-If
the story. of r. Molokoff, who arrived
here from Nunivak island Alaska, is
true, the passengers and crew of the
steamer Jessie numbering Is, were not
drowned at the mouth of the Kusko-
vim river as reported several weeks
ago but were murdered by Indians
MolokOn says just before he left NUM-
yak island, the Indian wife of a hunter
and trader named Marsten returned to
Nunivak from Kuszowim, where she
had been visiting relatives and report
ed that when the steamer Jessie and
barge Minerva went ashore in the
breakers a number of Indians were on
the beach and rendered assistance in
getting the whites ashore and saving
supplies from the barge.
After being comfortably camped, the
Indians demanded a large portion of the
supplies as payment for services, which
according to the Indian woman's story
was refused. A few nights later while
all were asleep the Indians made
rush on the camp, killing the entire
party, including Missionary Weber,
his wife and child.
After the massacre the bodies were
stripped of clothing and valuables. They
were then taken in canoes a consider
able distance from shore and thrown
into the sea- Molokoff's story is partial
ly corrobOrated by a letter from Mars
ten received by Barneson and ChilcOot,
who owned an interest IN the Jessie.
Marsten asks for an investigation.

CLEAR SAILING.
Spanish Commissioners Ask if
We Really Mean 1t
And Are Told Emphatically
That We Do.
Will PROBABLY SIGN,
1t is Believed Spain is Prepar-
ing to Accept,
Or There Would Have Been No
POstpOnement Today.

Paris, Nov. 23.-The postponement OF
the session of the peace commission at
the Spaniards' request is regarded as d
hopeful sign that the treaty will pc
signed. While the Madrid government
had not vet received the text of the
American ultimatum, the Spanish MIN
listers received quite enough by tele-
graph on Monday night to enable them
to instruct their commissioners to retire.
were such their intentions.
The belief was confidently expressed
by several of the American commission
ers in conversation with the correspond
ent of the Associated Press today that
before the time expired for the Ameri-
cans, namely Monday next, the Span
iards will acquiesce in the United States
Philippine offer and that ultimately the
treaty will be signed by all the Spanish
commissioners. It is true that the
course which Senor Aontero Rios, presi-
dent of the Spanish commission, will
follow, is still uncertain, as he con-
tinues to play to the gallery" but a
leading member of the American com
mission believes he will sign with the
other Spaniards. In any case, his place
on the commission will be speedily filed,
probably by SenOr Leon y Castillo, the
Spanish ambassador here.
Senior MOnterO Rios sent a cOmmunl-
cation to the American commissioners
last evening asking a number of ques-
tiOnS. The most important of them and
to get an answer to which the latter
was undoubtedly written was tucked
away in the middle of the letter. 1t
asked in effect if the Americans really
meant that the ultimatum must be an
swered by Monday. The Spaniards were
assured that such was the intent and
the answer has cleared the air. A MEM
Der of the Spanish commission today
assured the correspondent of the As
sociated Press that the next meeting of
the commissioners will take place on
Friday or Saturday and that Spain'S
answer then will De the last she will
make and that it will BE- a definite con-
cIusion of the matter in hand.
This utterance is looked upon as ipdi-
eating that Spain will sign the treaty
of peace.

DEPEW FOR SENATOR.
Western New York Aspirsnts All
Willing to Yield to the Candidacy
of ChaunceY
of Chauncey.

Buffalo. N. Y, Nov 23.-Several pages
of interviews in the Buffalo News today
indicate that ChaUncey NJ. Depew is the
popular choice of the people of western
New York for United States senator.
The News enterprise is inspired by
Mr.. E. H Buffers personal friendship
for Mr.. Depew, but the declarations of
some of the men interviewed show that
the Depew candidacy is in accord with
Senator PIatt's views. Practically all
the leading Republicans of the western
counties are committed to DR.. Depew
in some degree, and the most conspic-
uous citizens of both parties express
their pleasure in anticipation of his
election. Mr.. Butler, who has himself
been mentioned as a candidate, and ex-
State Controller James A. Roberts are
quite willing to yield to Mr.. Depew, so
that western New York will have no
candidate against him. The trend of
all the interviews is that Mr.. Depew is
the ideal man to represent New York in
the senate.

Over 100 Meteors We're Seen at the
Yale Observatory.


New York, Nov pa New Haven dis
patch to the Post says:
The development of the plates exposed
at Yale observatory during the recent

Twelve cameras were used, of which
eight were employed at the Yale observa-
tory and four at point about two and
one-half miles away. At each point two
