COME OUT TONIGHT.

The suggestion of Edward Wilder,
who is a director of the Auditorium as
ISOLATION and is one of the most
thusiastic workers for the new build
ing, for raising money will be pre-
scented before the meeting this evening.
His suggestion is that a series of grand
entertainments be held in the auditor
ium Immediately after it's completion
for the raising of the fund. For this
tickets would be sold in advance, and
the necessary funds secured. This sug-
gestion has met with hearty approval
and at the meeting this evening at the
Commercial club rooms it is probable
that some action in this direction will
be taken.
Another good suggestion which has
been made is for the holding Of the
midsummer fair or jubilee. This would
not only be a most pleasant affair but
would result in a help to the Auditor
ium fund. All the citizens in Topeka
who are interested in seeing the AUDI
forum built this summer are invited to
attend the meeting this evening. The
meeting is held as an Auditorium COM
mittee meeting, but it will take tie
form of a mass meeting of business
men and interested citizens with the in
tentiOn to do something definite in the
way of arrangements for the raising of
the funds,

Minister POlO's Confidential Ut

CerVera's Plan May Be to Bonn
bard Atlantic Coast.

New York, May pa special to the
World from Quebec says:
Senior Polo, before sailing from Que
bee for Europe, confided to friend
the original intentions of Admiral Ger
Vera'S squadron.
1t appears that the Spanish fleet, be-
ing acknowledged unable to meet the
American vessels was to avoid them and
cause all the damage it could to the
American coast. Among other places
to be bombarded was Portland, Me-,
and an attempt was to be made to blow
up a powder mill near that place. Senior
Polo succeeded in making satisfactory
arrangements for the coaling of the
fleet, but the agreement was broken,
owing to American influence in the coal
concern, and the news of this fact drove
the Spaniards from their original in
tention of touching at Cape Breton, and
made them take refuge at Santiago de
Cuba. Since then the Spanish fleet has
left on it's journey to Cadiz.
Spain's tactics will be to trust to
fever, Gen. Blanco's soldiers and the
terrible expense daily incurred by the
American government and she will not
risk a repetition of the Manila disaster.
I'm the fall" the late ambassador
said, Spain will abandon Cuba, after
having made her enemy pay dearly for
their victory

COOK TRYING 1T.
The Sheriff Making a Stagger
at Detective Work in the
Collins Case.

Sheriff Cook and the insurance adjust
ers are still working on the Collins muIder
case. but the police have not been doing
anything for a week.
Chief Steele was seen at his office to-
day and asked whether he had made any
progress on the Collins case since his re-
turn. He said: Il am not working on
the Collins case
The police detectives have done very lit
tie on the case and they have not secured
any additional facts, and the only mem
Der of the sheriffs force who has been
giving his attention to the case is Sheriff
Cook himself.
Though the insurance men came to To-
peka to try to secure evidence that Mr..
Collins committed suicide it is known that
they have practically abandoned the the
DRY. The experiments with the gun and
the cartridges proved conclusiYely that
the case could not be unraveled on that
theory.
Even ex-Sheriff wilkerson, who at first
insisted that there was reason to believe
that suicide is almost out of the question.
With that out of the way there is but
one thing to do: Find the person who
murdered Mr.. Collins. That is as much
of mystery as it was the day after the
murder occurred.
County Attorney Jetmore said today
that he has received large number of
letters from all over the country Offering
suggestions but he has received nothing
that will tend to throw any light on the
case. They all give opinions about who
might have committed the murder, but
the suggestions of no value.

Attitude of France Will Not Iniure
Exposition.

Washington, May 25.-While the pro-
vision in the sundry civil appropriation
bill for the proper representation of this
was inserted by the senate has not yet
been taken up in a formal way by the
conference committee which is consid-
ering the bill, the subject has had more
or less attention from the members of
the committee as individuals. The
members appreciate the delicacy of the
situation and realize that they are act
ing largely in a diplomatic capacity in
dealing with this subject and according
ly are impressed with the necessity of
proceeding with caution. Their atten-
ton has been called to both sides of the
question and the fact has developed
that there is an element in this country
quite opposed to making any appropri-
atoms at all because of alleged par
TALLY of France towards Spain in the
present war The fact has also devel-
oped that at least one member of the
that no appropriation should be made
under the circumstances The indica-
tions are, however, quite strong that
this view will not prevail unless some
open act of hostility should be COM
mitted by the French people and so
long as the French government contin-
ues to declare its good will. The pre-
vailing opinion among the committee
men seems to be that the wise and prop
er policy is to proceed in the matter
just as would be done if there was no
war on.

PEACE between THEM.
Mutual Life of New York Ends
All Litigation With McNall.

The Mutual Life Insurance company
of New York has dismissed the injunc-
ton suit brought in the federal court
against Insurance Commissioner Webb
McNall to prevent him from interfering
with the business of the company in
Kansas, and also the suit for $4,000
damages against McNan and his bonds
men for shutting the company out of
the state.
The suit resulting from the restrain
ing order, issued by Judge Williams,
which was taken to the United States
court of appeals at ST. Paul by Com
missioner McNaIl. has also been dis
missed. All dismissals are at the cost
of the insurance company.
This ends all litigation between the
Mutual Life Insurance company of New
York and Commissioner McNall, and
is a complete victory for the head of
the Kansas insurance department.
It closes one of the bitterest fights
ever made by insurance companies in
the United States but a fight in which
Commissioner McNall proved himself
the match of the big corporations at eV-
cry turn. The injunction suit dismissed
today was one asking for a mandatory
order compelling McNan to grant
license to the company to do business
in Kansas. This order was granted by
Judge Williams, who was sitting here
in place of Judge Foster but appeal
was taken by McNall, and in the mean
time he refused to grant the company
authority to do business in the state.
The damage suit was filed for alleged
damages to the business of the company
by shutting it out of the state.
The only other suit now pending
against McNall is the criminal proceed
ings resulting from the indictment of
the grand jury, on the charge of inter-
fering with the administration of JUS
tice 1t is understood, however, that
this will at once be no1lied by United
States District Attorney Lambert. A
motion to quash was filed by McNa1Is
attorneys last fall, and without passing
upon it, Judge Foster continued the
case until April of this year. 1t was
not taken up at the April term, and it
is now understood that it will be dis
missed at the instance of Mr.. Lambert.
The New York Life Insurance compa-
ny not long ago dismissed all litigation
against Commissioner McNal1 and paid
its part of the Hillmol> claim, and was
admitted to do business in the State-Tne
Mutual Life's next step may be the
payment of it's portion of the Hillmon
claim, to be followed by an application
for authority to do business in Kan

LONDON OPINIONS.
Sentiment of English Newspapers
Divided Maj ority With


London. May 25-In the newspapers
today there are several striking 1nstan-
ces of American and anti-Amerlcan
feeling. While the majority of the pa
pers alIude with pleasure to the refer
ences to the queen in yesterdays cele-
brations at New York and Tampa and
in the prayer of the chaplain of the SEN
ate, the Morning Post has allowed TO
appear in it's columns violent denun-
citation of America from the Hon. Stew
art ErSkine, a brother of Baron ErS-
kline who alIudes to Americas present
immoral warfare against SPAIN, and
asserts that the sentiment of the coun-
try which is worth having is for Spain.
On the other hand the ST. James Ga
zette which has been hitherto bitterly
anti-American seems to be becoming
much more friendly. 1t says, regarding
the disposition to blame America for
the slow progress of the war:
Sailors who know the Pacific and the
Caribbean seas, are we'll aware that de-
Law is the essence of naval war. They
remember that Nelson found it difficult
to discover the Spanish fleet somewhere
between Jamaica and Cadiz, and they
realize that this slow process is not in
teresting. But the presence of the gun
boats around the Sullen islands means
that the American officers are getting
the range of every gun of the batteries
that will later oppose the landing OF
the troops, just as Nelson did on a sim
ilar occasion"
The Westminster Gazette strongly
advocates a distinct understanding be-
tween the United States and Great Brit
ain. 1t says:
1.-The Americans are not going to step
out of their continent without raising
variety of questions which will involve
them with the European powers. Their
Monroeism, in far as it relates to
South America is likely to be questioned
anew and a European squeeze is likely
to be applied to them from many quar-
tiers. Therefore it is highly desira BILE
for them, as we'll as for us, that there
should be a British-American under
standing and it behoOveS both cOun-
tries to consider betimes some of the
essential business aspects of the mat
ter
The fund being raised by the Count
ess Valencia, wife of the former Span
ish ambassador here for the relief of the
Spanish wounded, has received several
important contributions from aristo-
cratic sources, including $500 each from
Lady Clan William and the Duke OF
Wellington.
