Or Annual Passes on Railroads
and Their Distribution and What
Is Done With Them by the People
Who are Favored.

ms = the time or the year IN Wichita
when the annual passes. good for 1910.
are received
There are not 50 many passes in thls
city as people suppose.
The annual passes in Wichita are re-
eeived by the newspaper men. Now the
strange part about the newspaper pass
matter Is that as soon as a man mas :
pass in his possession he does not fsad
time 10 travel II ne hasn't the pass he
can ind oodles OF spare time for gadding
But give him the pass and there never
comes the opportunity 10 fash H.
The newspapers receive annual passes
in return for advertising. They would
gladly take cash for railroad advertising
and pay fare. for BY that arrangement
they would come cut heavily winners.
The Railroads understand tbs and know
that II they even printed oui-of-dats
hand bills and gave their advertising mat
ter in that way as wide a publicity as e
gets through newspapers. the roads
would be under bsnkrupting expenses.
The only recourse would be not TO sd
vertise.
Though an annual pass. probably, u the
easiest sort Of transportation to manlpu-
late. railroad officers say thar few an
nuals are mlsused. Occasionally enc =

During the last two or three ysars
there has been sort Of revolutson IN the
wording Of annual passes. Formerly

NOT PERMITTED TO SPEAK.
Anarchist Orator Suppressed by the
Police Of Havana

HAVANA, Nov. 19.-The interment Of the
remains of Creci. Of the revolutionary army,
who is described the 'initiator of social
ism in Cuba" took place to-day. The body
had been lying in state at the headquarters
OF the Havana trades union. When the
coffin was taken into the street a brief
speech was made introducing Falco, the
Italian Socialist, the speaker saying that
Falco was the most fitting man to make
the address on such an occasion because
he was lover Of liberty and had followed
Garibaldi. Falco was about to deliver an
grafton when an inspector of police inter-
yened and said he could not allow him TO
speak, as he had received instructions from
the authorities TO prevent any address by
Falco. The crowd cheered the Italian and
told him TO go on, but the police charged
and knocked down several persons and the
crowd rapidly dispersed. Several prominent
Cubans made loud protests. A procession
was then formed and the remains were
taken quietly TO the cemetery. large body
OF police accompanying the demonstrators.
The authorities had received an intima-
tion that Anarchist speeches would be
made TO incite the crowd. Falco was ex-
pected to be the chief offender. Civil Gov
ernor Nunez. having In view the spIead OF

COLOMBIA IN TURMOIL
THE LITTLE REPUBLIC RACKED BY
A GRAVE INsURRECTION.
Government II Impressing Soldiers
and Levyins Forced LOans-Heavy
Fighting Last Wednesday.

KINGSTON. Jamaica, Nov. 19.-The Brit
fish steamer Atrato, from Barranquilla on
Tuesday and Colon on Friday, reports a
widespread revolutionary movement in Co.
lombia and a grave outlook. Her cargo she
landed with difficulty and she was unable
to secure an outward cargo owing to the
suspension of inland transportation. The
government is recruiting an army by i'm
pressment under martial law and is levy
ing forced loans in Colon, Barranquilla,
Panama and Carthagena, where the CO.
lombians have been taxed $25 each at y
per cent interest, with the alternative of
$500 fine or enlistment. Foreigners are ex-
cluded, but commercial houses in Colon and
Panama are subjected to forced loan Of
$780, 900, at II per cent, under a guarantee
of railroad subvention.
Business is practically suspended, famine
prices prevail and foreign exchange is at
SO0 Foreigners are regarded with suspicion,
the government claiming that the strength
and popularity of the revolution are due
to foreign support The passengers Of At
ratio complain that they experienced diff
Guilty and in. some instances indignity when
securing passports to leave the country.
There was heavy fighting last wednesday
on the Magadelena river. The government
claims to have won a victory. The revolu-
ton is retarded owing to want of arms,
but according to advices brought by the
Atrato is daily gaining strength.

OPPOSES PROHIBITION.
Bishop C. X. Nelson Says 1t Interferes
with Personal Liberty.

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. ia measure
known as the Willingham bill, having for
its purpose the establishment of prohibition
in the State Of Georgia, has been made a
special order for the lower house of the
Legislature on Tuesday next. To-day
Bishop c. X. Nelson, Of the Episcopal
diocese Of Georgia, delivered sermon at
the cathedral, in which he declared himself
opposed to prohibition. He said tonight
that the sermon had no reference to the
Willingham bill and that the reason he
spoke on the subject was because the
church authorities had set apart to-day as
a time for universal discussion Of this
topic. Bishop Nelson in his sermon said
he was opposed to prohibition because 1t
interefered with the god-given right of per-
sonal liberty. He declared that from his OBJ
servation he had come TO the conclusion
wherever they had been tried. He spoke Of
the State Of Maine, whose citizens, he said
had found that there was more intemper-
ance under rigid prohibition laws than
under local option system. He asserted
that there is more intemperance in eating
in Georgia than there is in whisky drink
ing. The bishop explained that he did not
approve OF intemperance, but declared that
prohibition did little. If any thing, to re-
r1oya tho vice

FIERY MESSENGERS"
Alleged COmet-Likc Meteors Terrify-
ing Alabama Negroes.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Nov. ia strange
phenomenon, supposed TO be a part Of the
tri-century meteoric disturbance scheduled
by the astronomers, was observed here to-
night betewen o'clock and midnight. The
fiery messengers made their appearance di-
lectly overhead and attracted much atten-
tion and no little fear among the negroes.
As many as ten meteorS were seen, all of
which were in the nebulae form, resembling
comets. They first appeared patches Of
light and at times would glow a fiery red
and then fade away. repeating the operation
a number of times before they finally disap-
peared. During the lurid period the central
body could be easily seen, the light radiat-
ing throughout the entire mass which ap-
peared to be about three feet long and six
inches wide 1t was also observed while
the glow was on that these bodies appeared
to be moving, the agitation being easily dis
tinguishable with the naked eye The entire
zenith was overcast, although outside OF the
area the sky was clear. Great crowds gath
cred at the street corners and many were
appalled, at the strange sight. A number OF
negroes resorted TO prayer as means or
protection from the fiery eyes OF the threat
ening stars, which they feared would reach
the earth.

TO DEFY EARTHQUAKES
CROWN PRINCE OF JAPAN TO HAVE
STEEL PALACE.
Chicago Engineers Will Furnish the
Plans and the Carnegie Company
Will Supply the Material.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1s.-Chicago engineers
are designing the earthquake steel palace
for the crown prince of Japan, which is to
mark the advent Of American steel con-
struction in the Mikado's land, and the i'm
perial government has appropriated $780,
600 for its erection. Foundations are being
laid with view to rearing the framework
in February. Around the skeleton of beams
and bars will be built house Of granite
and marble, expected to eclipse in beauty
of design anything the Orient has ever
known The palace will adjoin the royal
home Of the Mikado in Toxic, and it will
spread to extreme dimensions of 2'0 by 400
feet rising to a height Of sixty feet. The
architectural plans partake Of the French
renaissance.
DR.. T. Kayhama, chief architect Of the
imperial household department Of Japan,
who came to America to let the contract for
the new palace, has commissioned E. c.
and r. NJ. Shankland, of Chicago, who de-
signed the construction of the manufactur-
ers' building at the worlds fair, to prepare
framework plans. Still another Chicago
engineer, Charles M. Wilkes, was called
upon to map out an elaborate heating and
ventilating plant. In addition to these,
American brains will also contribute an ice
manufacturing and electric light system.
Steel construction. with Its rigid elasticity.
is expected to revolutionize the building in
dustry in the Mikado's land, where EARTH
quakes have on several occasions played
havoc with structures supposedly solid. The
new palace will rest on 400 deeply anchored
steel columns imbedded in concrete piers,
and the constructing engineers say the
magnificent pie will resist all shocks. Part
of the palace will be devoted to govern
ment offices. The steel will be supplied by
the Carnegie Company, of Pittsburg.

MANILA, Nov. 20. 10 a. m.-The Ameri-

Mia and Dagupan is progressing with
rush. General Macarthur is within five
miles of Dagupan, which place General
Wheaton or General Lawton will probably
occupy. The railroad is practically intact
beyond Bamban, except for distance Of
five miles north, and the rails for that por-
ton have been discovered. Large quantities
of rolling stock have. however. been de-

General Macarthur Is moving his troops

Lawton's territory are becoming passable.

REVIEW OF THE SITUATION.

Methuen's Preparations.

LONDON. Nov. 20. a. m.-This morn

Nov. matters, so far as Is known, have
been fairly quiet at Ladysmith. 1t is not
unlikely that the Beers. badly informed as
to the nature and extent of British prep

town, may hesitate regarding the next
movement The situation in Natal is very
complicated. more especially II the reports
be true that the great Tugela bridge has
been destroyed.
The success Of the next move on either
side will depend more on strategy than on
superior numbers. The Beers have three
lines of action open. They can hold the rail-
way with the force they have at EnnersdaIe.

Forty-First Regiment Ready to Sail
for Manila, Via Suez Canal.

FOrty-First Regiment Ready to Sail
for Manila, Via Suex Canal.
NEW YORK, Nov. 19-Wives, sweet
hearts and friends of the Forty-first United
States Volunteers bade them goodbye this
afternoon as the big transport Logan pulled
out into the river from the government pier
in Brooklyn. Although the transport will
not begin her long voyage to Manila until
tomorrow afternoon, the officers IN charge
had the transport towed 10 an anchorage
just off Governors island to-day. The regi-
ment was brought over from Jersey City
this morning in two ferryboats. AT noon
they were all aboard. A hospital corps,
consisting of about 100 men, arrived from
the Washington barracks and went aboard
just before the gangplanks were sent
ashore. In addition TO 1,136 officers and men
of the Forty-first Regiment there were sew
eral women on board the transport when
she sailed. They are wives of officers and
will accompany their husbands to the Phil
ippines.
The transport Buford will sail from the
government pier tomorrow afternoon for
Cuba. The Buford is loaded with supplies
for the soldiers in Havana and will return
with two battalions of cavalry, who will be
sent to the Philippines on the next trans
port which sails.
