GATES FILES AN INJUNCTION

Financing Orient Road.
John W. Gates who figured so prom
inently IN the Jester murder case is
again before the public in connection
with the new Orient road in which all
Wichita people are interested. Gates
holds securities in tn Guardian Trust
company. which is said to be behind the
movement of the road in financial way.
An Associated Press dispatch 10 the
Eagle from Kansas City says:
John W. Gates of Chicago and other
holders Of secrities IN the Guardian
Trust company made application in the
federal court today for a receiver for
the company and an injunction to pre-
vent a meeting of the stockholders called
for tomorrow to elect a new board of di-
rectors. This is said to be an attempt
Of the Gates element TO gain control of
the companys affairs and to stop it from
aiding in the financing of the Kansas
City, Mexico and Orient railway. the
short line which A f. Stillwen is build
ing between Kansas City and Topolobam-
20 on the Pacific coast of the Mexican
republic.
Eight new directors Of the trust COM
pany weer to have been elected tomor-
row, and Stillwen was. it is said, in
possession OF sufficient proxies to enable
him 10 control the election and name
the directors. The new board was then
to meet and elect Mr. Stillwen president
o the company.
The Gates petition filed today makes
sensational charges against Stillwen and
his associates
The court granted an order restraining
the disposition of any of the trust COM
pany's assets and against the heading
OF tn emeeting tomorrow. Final hearing
viii be had tomorrow morning.
NJ Stillwell, in a statement today, said:
Nh. Gates tried TO rule the trust COM
pany and, failing, he is now endeavoring
10 ruin it The suit is a personal attack
On me and an effort to prevent the Orient
line from being built. 1t will be severe

A call is being quietly circulated ariong
the Republican Senator's for a caucus to
consider the reorganization of the elective
officers OF the Senate. with the view OF dis
tributing the patronage now held by Demo-
crats aGong the Republican faithful
The most important Offices are those OF
Secretary and ant-at-Arms. II has
been generally understood that when p
change is made James s Clarksou. form
erly of Iowa. but now Of New York. will be
named as the caucus nominee. but this is
by no means certain. MIR. Clarkson has
pledged TO him. but a large number OF
Senators are inclined to combine on some
other man The difficulty is TO find the
proper candidate. The office is largely
sinecure. except for the responsibility
growing out OF the fact that the Secretary
is the disbursing officer Of the Senate AMI
has a large force Of clerks under his con-
troll The active duty OF the Secretary con-
sisls in making himself agreeable and read
ing the Presidents message to the Senate

gentlemen was available now as candI-
date. he might easily win this most de-
siIable office. General ClarksOns cham
pIons say he fills the bill exactly and he
may win. but IL he does it win be the first
time in the history OF the Senate that this
plum has fallen into a mans lap without
struggle.
a veteran Republican Senator said yes
terday: The Office OF Secretary is prac-
tically going a-bogging. Clarkson may get
IT, but only because the Senators who are
not committed to him have no candidate
to combine their forces upon. Well, Clark
son is all right aud good Republican, so
l guess there's nothing to complain of.
The situation with regard to the Office
OF Sergeant Arms is somewhat different.

RESOLUTIONS BEING Prrpnrcd.

The resolution OF Congress directing Sec

to the designation of the National City
Bank. at New York. as the Government
depository for internal revenue receipts,
vas received by him yesterday morning.
With reference 10 the resolution and the
action TO be taken under Il, Mr. Gage
said to a reporter for The Times;
1T affords me pleasure to submit all
documents relating to the matter, and !
shall do so as soon as the clerical force
has made copies OF all the correspondence
and papers bearing on the subject"
Assistant Secretary Nanderlip refused to
discuss the matter and said there was moth
ing TO be given out as yet In regard to
the subject.
Treasurer Roberts said he had already
given orders to select all the papers aud
correspondence In his possession bearing
on the subject and make copies therefrOm
Il am perfectly satisfied" said Mr. Rob
erts that everything will be found in
perfect order. The resolution was adopted
by both houses OF Congress. not as a sign
OF want OF confidence in the integrity OF
Secretary Gage. but to satisfy the people
who have a perfect right to demand an
investigation Of all the acts Of a public
official. But those who are loudest in their
dcnunciations are doing it only for the
sake OF notoriety. The Investigation will
prove boomerang to the SecretaUy's as
