The local stock decreased 315, 600 bushels.
There was sympathy with the wheat

WILL FURNISH MORE TROOPS.
Governor Stanley Replies to Cues
lions From Eastern Papers.

A telegram from a New York news
paper asked Governor Stanley what
kansas would do if the president called
for more volunteers to go to the Philip
pines He responded by saying:
kansas is with the national admin
istration and will respond promptly to
the presidents call if one is made
A Chicago paper asked the governor
if he would unite with the governors
of other western states in demanding
the recall of the troops from the Philip
pines. To this he replied by saying:
kansas showed by her vote last fall
that we are in favor of expansion. No
demand will be made by me for the re-
turn of our troops"

EXTERMINATION
And Partition Senator Morgan's Rem
edy in Samoa

edy in Samoa
New York, April ia Washington
special says: Senator John T. Morgan
of Alabama, a leading member of the
foreign relations committee, when ask
ed for an expression on the Samoan
problem said: There is but one per-
manent solution of the Samoan ques-
ton. That is a partition of the island
by the three great powers. which have
mission to reconcile the differences be-
tween themselves and the native
SamOans.
I'm the pending diplomacy on this
question the United States with grace
and fairness can take the initiative as
arranged with MalietOa. England and
Germany then lost no time in follow
ing our example and in securing the
same recognition according to US.
The immediate purpose of the three
nations is to secure permanent coaIing
stations upon the island. Once establish
ed, however, these stations can not be
peaceably maintained under the exist
ing conditions of the natives Until
completely subjected to the control of
the whites the savages will be a con-
slant menace and bloodshed will fol-
low.
Il am thoroughly impressed with the
Importance of partition as I believe that
the immediate division of the islands
Will bring about the speedy solution of
trouble that may terminate gradually
with the practical determination of the
Samoan race.
THE United States should have a
coallng station at Page Pago and then
with the long desired cable in the Pa
cific reaching to Honolulu and to Syd-
ney there will be little to interfere with
the spread of civilization on the
Samoan islands,"

TAPP MAY GO TO CONGRESS.
Defeated Candidate For Mayor II
Wichita Has q New Boom.

James w. Tapp, the defeated candi-
date for mayor of Wichita, developed
such unexpected strength at the polls
that the Populists of Sedgwick county
are talking of him as a candidate for
congress in the Seventh district. Mr..
Tapp has not expressed himself upon
this subject but some of his friends
insist that he is just the man for this
position.
This talk is based upon the theory
that Jerry Simpson will be in the race
for governor and therefore out of the
race for congress.

While the resignation has not been
rendered, it would surprise no one here
if Mr.. Porter should relinquish his post
at any time. He broke down under the
strain of the arduous duties he has per-
formed since the advent of the present
administration and for over three weeks
has been confined to his house in this
city by nervous prostration. The gen

Cortelyou will succeed him if he should

WICHITA WILL BE FIRST.
Plans to Secure Better Railroad Rates
Now Maturing.

The old fight of Wichita against the
Kansas railroads entering that city to
secure better rates will be the first big
case filed before the court of visitation.
Wichita demanded and received recog-
milton in the make up of the court and
the solicitor, Mr.. Wyatt, will take up the
Wichita cases first.
Plans are being made to file a case
before the court alleging the old dis
elimination of rates which has caused
trouble at Wichita for years and it will
be pushed as vigorously as possible.

DEMURRER SUSTAINED
Rios Indictment Was HkI1 tn Be
Overloaded

The demurrer to the Indictment il
the case of Juan Rios, charged with
passing counterfeit money, was sus-
tanned in United States district court
yesterday and the defendant was re-
leased on his own recognizance in the
sum of $500 until the next term. The
ground upon which the indictment
went out was that it contained a state
nlent of the fact that Rios had a Grim
ina1 record, having been convicted of
grand larceny. 1t was not held by the
court that this statement in an indict-
ment is constitutionally improper, but
that it is improper in an indictment
for crime for which there is no pro-
vision in the statutes for additional
punishment.
Attorney Frazier. who had presented
the demurrer in this case, demurred on
the same ground to the Indictment of
Pablo Mascon for selling liquor to an
Indian. That demurrer was not sus-
tanned for the reason that provision is
made for additional punishment for
that crime. Mascon was put on trial
and convicted.
A motion was made for a contin-
U2nce in the case of HereraS, indicted
for selling liquor to an Indian. Aft
davit was made that an important wit
ness was in the penitentiary and
couldn't be here. The motion was de-
MED and Hereras went to trial.
Rafael Soto was arraigned on an in
dictment for cutting wood on u-esur-
Veyed government land in the McDow-
ell district Soto is a perfectly white
haired, white mustached and rudy
complexioned Mexican, who can under
with one ear to the reading of the in
dictment. Near the close at the read
ing of the name of Rafael Soto" he
excitedly stopped the clerk and told
him the wrong man was being ar
raigned. His name was C. L. Soto;
for Ceffro and L for Lopez. Deputy
Marshal Porterie, who had arrested
him was called up, and said that Soto
would smell equally sweet by any
name. He had been told that the man
wanted was an albino Mexican and
wanted was an Albino Mexican and
Rafael Soto was another person.
The arraignment was concluded ard
the indictment was handed to Soto. |
Judge Street told him to take it to his |
attorney, tell him what they had done |
to him. and if he didn't like it to come |
into court this morning at half past
nine and see about it.

UP TO THE COUNCIL
Wafer Works BOnd Matter
Submitted Last Night.
It's Reception was Not as Enthu-
SiaSfic as was Desired The
City Fathers Decided TO SIcep
Over 10 Awhile.

The sense of the citizens and tax
Monday night on the subject of mu-
nicipal water works and sewer bonds
was laid before the city council last
night. A subcommittee consisting OF
Col McCord, Major J. w. Evans, ]. c.
Adams, Joseph Thalheimer and r. H
Greene of the committee of fifteen,
presented the resolution adopted at the
mass meeting requesting the council to
call an election at which vote should
be taken on a proposition to issue to
the amount of $4,000, thirty-year per
cent bonds, 5000, 900 to be expended in
water works and $3.50 in sewer
There was offered with this resolution
one in blank calling the election, leav-
ing the council nothing to do but
adopt it.
After reading the resolution Chair
man McCord spoke of the representa-
tive character of the meeting and the
absolute unanimity with which the
resolution just offered had been agreed
upon. Col. McCord prefaced his re-
marks with the statement: Il have no
doubt all you gentlemen were present
at that meeting That was a very
natural, but, after all, erroneous opin-
ion. Only one of them, Coun-
Gilman Dyer, was there and
participated in the meeting. Council
man Sanders was not there in person,
but he was present in spirit. Mayor
CAM and Councilmen F'ickas and Nor
ford were absent in both body and
spirit.
Upon the conclusion of Col. McCord's
address Mr.. F'ickas inquired if the
sum proposed to be voted was suffi-
cient to put in water works for the
whole city; if it was based uPon an
estimate made by any competent en-
gineer. Col. McCord referred the in
quiry to Mr.. Adams, who said that
there had been an estimate by a COM
petent engineer, and that while it was
believed that the sum asked for would
be sufficient to construct water works
for the present needs of the city, that
matter was not considered at the
meeting and was not a subject for con-
sideration now. 1t was quite outside
the resolution, which merely asked that |
the taxpayers of the city be given an
to say whether they |
wanted 100000 worth of water works. |
If they subsequently needed more they !
could vote bonds for an extension.
City Attorney Darby inquired if MI. |
