New York Sun: Full accounts OF the
interstate cake-waTk which enlivened
New Years night at Wichita, that seat
of all festivity in Kansas, have not
reached the waiting east. but il must
have been a glittering pageant. And it
had a positive permanent value beyond
its temporary frivolities. II revealed a
new field for the genius of statesmen.
Seats were reserved for Governor job
w. Leedy. and some other Kansas Off
cials, and for Governor Barnes. of Okla
homa. and his staff. It might be sup
posed that a governor of Oklahoma could
find fun enough at home. and probably
Barnes came TO see Leedy. who is worth
travelling a good many miles TO see.
Leedy is perhaps the finest composite and
all-around Populist statesman in Kan
sas. II seemed a few days ago as il
there was nothing about which he had
not expressed his views Unanimously,
but now he has studied cake-walks. and
is going TO introduce them among the
Populist brethren.

Troy Chief: ". z. Stanley, of Wich-

date for governor. His fool friends are
endeavoring to further his interests by
announcing that he is an enthusiastic
Methodist and has been at the head OF
his Sunday school for the past twenty
five years. All of which may be true
and further than that that Mr.. Stanley
may be a good and true man. but this
attempt to promote his interests by say
ing that he is a prominent Methodist will
only tend TO array people of other de-
nominations against him. If he is a true,
capable Republican it is enough. His
Methodism won't hurt him unless he at

THE BATTERY ACCOUNTS
IN DETER SHAPE THAN MOST VOL
UNTEER ORGANIZATIONS.
Pay, Clothing and subsistence Allow
ance-Men to BE FurlougIed
This Week.

Captain Curtis said yesterday that he
hoped to be able to furlough the Twenty
seventh Battery some time this week De-
tails of men are busy invoicing all the
property of the battery. 1t is very tedious
work, but progressed satisfactorily yester-
day.
When the boys are furloughed they will go
to their homes for sixty days, instead of
thirty, as the boys of the regiments did.
The rule of the War Department gives two
months pay, with Is cents a day for SUBJ
sistence and 80 cents day clothing allow
ance to all troops that left the United
States.
The battery is in much better shape than
most of the Indiana organizations were with
reference to the accounts. While not pro-
vided with all necessary blanks, the officers
were in constant touch with experienced
army officers, so that their accounts were
more complete than most volunteers were
able to keep. For instance" said the cap
tain yesterday, some of the other organiza-
tons did not know about keeping clothing
rolls, am told. We knew about things of
that kind, and our affairs were in such
shape that we could have checked up when
we reached Washington. So far as orders
we had received were concerned, we ex-
pected TO be mustered out there, and were
ready for it. Not until we reached the
United States did we know anything about
the plan of a sixty-day furlough."
The pay, the clothing and subsistence al
lowance of the battery boys will amount to
about 81 day. Those who choose may re-
turn TO their usual business while waiting
for the final muster out. Most of the boys
are virtually at home now. While the bat
terry Is bivouacked at the armory, and the
boys sleep there, most of them mess at
home, although there is a supply of rations
available for those who might want to de-
pend on Uncle Sam. Between times they
report to the armory for such light duties
as are required of them. All of them are
feeling good over the fact that their tent
life is over. The quarters in the armory are
comfortable at night, and there are plenty
OF chairs and tables for the use of the
officers and accountants who are auditing
the accounts

that this machine is not finished, and of
