WILL RENTER POLITICS.
Ex-senator John j. Ingalls, Announces
That He VIII EndeavOr to Give Kan
sas New Deal.

Topeka, Kan, July 8.-Ex-Senatc-
John j. Ingalls,. in an authorized inter
view published yesterday in the Mail
and Breeze, announces that he pro-
poses to re-enter Kansas politics; that
he will endeavor to bring about new
deal' in republican politics; that he
will support Charley Curtis for con-
gress in the First district and Senator
Baker for reelection as senator.
When asked if he would enter the
congressional race in the First district.
he said: ''The use of my name in that
connection has been without consult
ing me. It is proposition upon which
I am wholly uninformed." What, in
your judgment, is, the solution of the
trust problem?'' he was asked.
The practical solution of the whole matter
rests with the state legislatures. The solution
is taxation; just the same the government
undertook to prevent the sale of oleomargarine
by taxing the product; just the same the gov
eminent destroyed the state banks by imposing
the ten per cent. tax. The law already existing
is practically sufficient. 1t declares all COM
binations in restraint of trade illegal and void.
If that is supplemented by taxation the matter
will be disposed of promptly. No problem is
simpler than dealing with the trusts.

and went to see what was the matter.
Suddenly he saw her gazing through the

THE WORLD AT LARGE.
Summary of the Daily News.
WASHINGTON NOTES.

THE order for the enlistment of ten
new regiments of infantry was issued
on the 9Th by Secretary of War Alger.
IT is evident, officials at Washington
said, that President Schurman, of the
Philippines peace commission, believes
the suppression of Aguinaldo's insur-
rection means the establishment of
peace throughout the archipelago.
THE war department on the 9th
granted the request of the governor of
Texas for aid for food sufferers. Such
government boats as were available
were placed at the disposition of the
governor and the rations asked for
were to be issued at once.
THERE was some antagonism mani
Tested in the war department against
spending any money for the improve
ment of Jefferson Barracks, Mo-, the
assertion being made that there was
not likely to be enough soldiers quar-
tered at the post to take care OF the
quarters.
A COMMITTEE of Cubans called at the
white house and asked that part of
the money now spent for rations for
the suffering and starving natives be
invested in agricultural implements
and oxen, so that they may get to work
tilling the soil and raising crops. The
committee believed this would put a
stop to idleneSS.

The Cost of the Spanish War.

Washington, July 6.-The cost of the
Spanish war, including the payment
for the Philippine islands and the
maintenance of garrisons in all the de-
Tendencies, from the preparations for
the war in March, 1898, to the close of
the last fiscal year, on June so, 1899,
has been about $3.50, 500, 600. There are
still some contracts which have not
been hquidated and several millions in
gold will be paid to the western volun-
teers when they return to San Fran
cisco from the Philippines this month
and next, but the war expenditures
have now been brought well within
the proceeds of the war taxes and no
deficit will be created in the treasury
accounts, even by the hard fighting
which is likely to take place in the
Philippines in the autumn.

the story of the early Roman republics and
the scheming of the politicians of the
times. He related how, when any man in
the republic became obnoxious to his neigh

oyster she'll Iatin-ostreum, SHELF, and on
the receipt of a specified number by the
consuls that man was banished, killed or
otherwise removed in some one of those
pleasant ways the old Romans had. When
he had finished his explanation he said:
Now, the boy here in the front seat,
what did we derive from the old Latin use
of the shell, which was called ostreum?''
The answer he expected was far from.
what he got, for the little student with
spectacles in the front seat arose and de-

the great crowd at the annual interna-

the welcoming speeches came responses
in behalf CT endeavor ers from foreign

of Toronto. came forward to speak for
Canada. some one struck up ''God Save
the Queen.'' The Canadians on the
platform took up the strain, and in
moment the huge tent was reverberat-
ing with the swelling chorus of the
British anthem. The friendly rela-
tions between Canada and the United
States. particularly with reference to
religious matters, formed the burden
of DR.. Patterson's address.
At the close of the big meeting the
crowd thronged to the platform to be
presented to the mayor and officers of

first day of what promises to be one of
the most notable gatherings in the
