GUTHRIE, o. T., April 27.-(Special.)
The heaviest cattle shipping business ever

Much of the land is in the hands of a

TOPEKA, April 27.-tSpecial) Senator
R. T. Battey returned to-day from Indian
apolis, where he examined the Indiana
State Life Insurance Company for the

the company in good condition and so re-
ported in a statement to the department

heart when he presented the bill. He was
there ten days and he charged 80 day
and expenses. The entire bill amounted to
only $152. When he presented 1t, the presi-

Yes, that's ALL" replied Battey.
well, We expected it to be five times
that amount" replied the president.
Il was not sent here to hold you up,'
said Battey, Just simply come to examine
your company and charge reasonable
amount"
We'll, that is indeed refreshing" said
the president. Drawing out n couple OF
documents from his desk he continued:
Here are the receipts for money we
paid McNall's examiners. They visited us
twice. The first time one of them was
in the office about fifteen minutes on his
way East. He charged us $50. The other
time one of McNall's examiners spent four
hours with US and charged us $3.50. They
made no pretext of making an examina-
ton, That is why 1 am surprised at your
small fee."
Insurance Superintendent Church will
now license the company to do business
in Kansas.

MINERS SUE FOR DAMAGES.

Representations.

SOUTH -M'ALESTER, 1. T, April a.
Especially Recently the Kansas and Texas
Coal Company shipped large number of
miners from Jellico, Tenn, to Cherryvale,
l. r. The miners claim that the company
represented that they Were to be taken to
Huntington. Ark, and that there was no
strike at Huntington. Instead of taking
the miners to Huntington, they We're
brought to Cherryvale. Finding that
strike was on at both places, the men re-
fused to work, and have brought suit
against the coal company for the amount
of expenses incurred in seeking employ
ment elsewhere. Should the miners win
the suit, the coal company will have to
pay damages, as there is no appeal from
the amounts sued for.

c0GHLAN NOT TO Be RELIEVED

PHILADELPHIA, April 27.-An authen-
tic statement was made this afternoon
after his arrival in this city that Presi-
dent Mckinley has no intention of remov-
ing Captain Coghlan from the command
of the Raleigh. The president, it was
stated, reports to the contrary notwith-
standing, has not even considered such
action.
1t was also learned from the same au-
thentic source that the admiration held by
the president for Captain Coghlar's par
ticipation with Admiral Dewey in the de-
struction of the Spanish fleet completely
overshadows any desire on his part to ad-
minister rebuke to the Raleigh's COM
mander. Should Captain Coghlan retire at
all. which now seems unlikely. it will not
be because of the German incident, but in
keeping with usages of the navy depart
ment, or in the event of the captain him
self desiring shore leave. This information
comes almost directly from the president
himself,

KAUTz TO BE ADM0NIsHED.
Hint to Be Given the Admiral to BE
More Careful What He
Writes.

WASHINGTON, April Att has been
felt proper to admonish Admiral Kautz
to be more careful, either in writing such
letters as that published yesterday in Gin
cinnati, or in guarding his letters from
publicity, and a letter of that character
was addressed to him yesterday. Theoret-
ically, a letter addressed under the cir
cumstances attending the Kautz letter
may be regarded as strictly private, yet
sequences that would follow the publica-
ton. In the case of Chief Justice Cham
criticising the Germans in Samoa, the eff
feet will certainly be injurious to the chief
justice. Though the letter undoubtedly was
a private communication, yet the state de-
partment was bound to take notice of the
fact that this publication had done much
to injure the usefulness of the chief JUS
fice, after the reconstruction of the isl
ands' government, improbable.
