MOVING TO EvADE DEBT.
Town of Attiea, Kan, Decides Upon
a Novel Plan of Finnnciertux

KANSAS CITY. Mo-, March 25.-At a
mass meeting held at Attica. Harper
county, Kan, it was decided to move
the town to a new site, just south OF the
present site, unless the holders of the
city's bonds will compromise for a small
part of their face value. The town owes
nearly half as much as its present as
sessed valuation, the debts having been
piled up in boom times and the people
have found 1t will be cheaper to move
than to pay the debts. =
Ness City, county seat of Ness county,
has practically decided on like action.
A contractor has agreed to move every
building in town to a new site for half
the city's Indebtedness.
If Ness City and Attica manage to
throw off their debts by movink, a dozen
or more other western Kansas towns
will follow their lead.

70 the United States, Says Gen. J. Q
Breckenridge.
Washington. J. O. Brecken-
ridge, inspector general, had a long
conference with President Mckinley
Saturday as to conditions in Cuba and
Porto Rico. Gen. Breckenridge re.
turned q few days ago from a tour OF
nearly three months, inspecting the
conditions of the United States troops
in these Islands. He observed the
progress being made in all directions,
and the president found his remarks so
interesting as to desire that be should
remain with him some time.
The inspector-gsner says that in
Cuba strife and contention are ram
pant. It is found, he says, in social
and political life, and it is really doubt
full what the outcome there will be-.
Gen. Breckenridge does not share the
popular admiration for Gomez. he
told the president that Gomez is tn:
worst enemy the United States has, and
that the country has not done much to'
itself in maintaining the side of the
Cuban leader against the assembly
Gen. Breckenridge holds that Gomez
is of turbulent disposition, unsuitet
by nature, and in all ways to assist II
the establishment of peaceful gov
eminent, unless he is to be the diota
tor Of everything.

Road oversoers Given More Time.

Monroe. AFTER session Of five
days, the grand jury submitted its
final report Saturday evening ana
was discharged, subject to the call
of the court. Relative to good roads
the report says: "The condition OK
the public roads is very discourage
ing, but as the weather conditions
for the last six months have been
such as to impede all farm work to
an unusual extent and thus demand
all available time on the farms, we
have deemed it advisable to take no
action against the road overseers,
but as many Of the roads have be-
come almost impassa bic something
must be done at the earliest avalla'
bic opportunity. We have thought,
therefore, that it might be advisable
for your honor to Ereconvene the
grand jury after reasonable ana
opportune time given for repairing
the roads, to the end that thorough
investigation may be had, and all
who are still derelict may be dealt
with as the law provides.
