Completion of X. C. Auditorium
Depends on Steel Makers.

Minneapolis, April 5.-The problem of
Kansas City auditorium In time for the
Democratic national convention rests
with the Carnegie Steel company of
Pittsburg. The Gillette-Herso COM
pany of Minneapolis, if it can get the
steel, can have that part of the work
finished by June Is. The Gillette Hersog
company however, must, if it under
takes the contract, bind itself under a
heavy forfeit to complete the work and
its officers are unwilling to do this I'M
less the Carnegie company binds itself
similarly. 1t is one of the rules of the
Carnegie company not to make any for
felt contracts. President Schwab has
assured the Gillette-Herzog company
that his company will do its part but
tract which shall make the larger con-
Germ take an equal share of the respon-
sibility.
f. J. Lewyellyn, vice president and
chief engineer said he thought there
was a good chance of an arrangement
being made whereby the work could be
done. Mr.. Lewellyn said however that
in his opinion that all could not be dup
Heated by July even if his company
reproduced the steel structure by June
Is. He regarded Is days as much too
short a time in which to do the wood
work and finishing.
He has recommended the Kansas City
people to build along permanent lines as
far as possible and then put on tenn
pOrary roof. This would neceSSitate

The government could probably make
some large profits figuring on per

deposits. Assuming that the funds
would be invested in the new 2 per cent
refunding bonds, there would be a
profit if ever these bonds could be
brought below par. But when. owing
to the large purchases for purposes Of
national bank circulation, they got
above par it would not be necessary
to buy them for postal savings banks.

exist for investment approximately as
safe and far more profitable in securi-
ties of states and municipalities having
good credit. In addition the secretary
Of the treasury should be authorized to
make direct loans of such funds to ma

and also put up sufficient government
bond security. 1t would thus be made
possible to apply in times of financial
stringency a remedy which would not

NO CLUE TO MURDERER.
Much Mystery Concerning Death of
Santa Fe Operator at Winfield.

Mr.. ]. D. NJ. Hamilton, claim attorney
of the Santa Fe, returned today from
Winfield where he went to secure par
ticuIars concerning the murder of D. A.
Coats, the night operator at the South
Winfield station. Mr.. Hamilton says
the feeling in that locality is intense,
and if the murderer is captured a lynch
ing is likely.
Coats was found dead in his office
by the conductor of a freight train
shortly after midnight Tuesday morn
ing. So far no clue to the identity of
his assailant has been secured, and the
motive of the murder is something of a
question. There was but 16 cents in the
moneyd rawer and Coats did not know
the combination of the safe. The muir
der may have been the result of an at
tempted robbery or the result of a per-
sonal encounter.
General Manager Nudge will return
to Topeka Saturday and probably offer
a reward for the apprehension of the
murderer. The company will also deal
handsomely with the widow of the dead
operator, on the suspicion that he was
killed defending company interests.
Coats had been married less than a year

PUBLIC USES OF POSTAL BANKS

tFrom the Chicago Tribune.l
Five bills for the establishment of
postal savings banks have been intro
duced into congress since the COM
mencement OF the present session. Four
out Of these FIVE provide for per cent.
rate OF Interest on deposits, and only
one for a rate above that. at Pa per
cent The bill introduced by Congress-
man I.Orimer is generally similar in it's
essential features to the ether bills that
have been introduced. 1t provides for
the investment of the postal savings de-
pOsits. which are to receive 2 per cent.
interest in United States bonds, and
when it is impossible to secure these,
IN state, municipal, and county bonds.
The secretary of the treasury is made
the custodian Of the funds, the post
master general being given no say as
TO their control, except in fixing the ex-
penses of the system and the amount
Of reserve needed for redemption pur-
poses
The passage of an act establishing
postal savings banks ought TO be
greatly facilitated by this almost unaui-
nous recognition of the principle that
the rate of interest should always be
kept below that paid by private saw
ings banks. The class of depositors
whom postal savings banks should be
designed to secure are those to whom
security guaranteed by the government
would count for more than the feature
Of proftableness Of investment.
Coupled with this governmental guar
antee, a 2 per cent. rate would be suffi-
cient to attract to the postal banks a
vast number Of depositors of small

THEY ARE COOLING OFF.
Certain Colored People Not as Angry
as They We're.

Rev. B. F. Foster. president of the
Topeka Industrial Institute league, now
denies that he and Edward Stephens
and their followers are making a gen
eraI attack on the colored teachers of
the city schools, and says that lat
present they are finding fault with
few, and will look after the rest later"
Since the first charges were made those
who are making the attack have great
" tempered their seeming indignation.
Mr.. Foster says: Many of Us may not
like Mr.. Stephens and his ways of do
ing things; perhaps we don't under
stand him.
It turns out today that one of the
coIored men who signed a statement
did so under a misunderstanding, and
had no idea by so doing he was filing
any charge against any one.
