IN SILVER DOLLARS
Six Thousand Shipped to Sub
Treasury at ST. Louis
BY KANSAS NATIONAL BANK
Twelve Thousand Silver DOL
lars Remain in Vaults.
BY KANSAS NATIONAL BANK

| Yesteray the Kansas National bank
shipped away from this city by express
six thousand silver dollars. There still
remains in the bank vaults 1900 silver
dollars. This number of silver dollars
represent a portion of the results of the
| immense trade in the city during the
street fair just passed. The week of the
carnival the deposits were splendid,
but they do not compare with those of
this week. Everything in the way of
deposits seems to have been silver, and
mostly in silver dollars.
In the morning an express wagon
backed up to the doors of the Kansas
National and the bystanders wondered
what they could be sending out. In a
little while a man came down the steps
with a bag on his shoulder and he
walked as though it was heavy And
so it was for it contained silver dollars
More bags loaded with silver dollars and
people looked on in establishment When
the express wagon drove off the pile was
quite a large enc.
This is the first time for some time
that there has been such a surplus of
silver in the banks of the city It is
evidence Of the good that carnival does
for a town when the banks are giving
out such reports. There is not a bank
in the city which has not had increased
deposits since the week of festivities.
1t would be very interesting to know
just what the amount of money spent in
this city during the week would amount
to. The fve-cent piece supply became
short and the fact was found that the
street car company was accommodating the
pieces because of the fact that their
fares were that price. These were turned
loose, however, and the demand supplied.
Another feature that the merchants
noticed was that a majority of the per-
CONS trading here had silver There were
silver dollars and they rolled them out
on every occasion. One case is known of
however, where a lady made a purchase
and presented a fifty dollar bill for the
payment of the goods. When asked If
she had anything smaller In the way
of bills she replied in the negative, and
she had a purse well filled
Should the increase OF silver dollars
continue for the next few days, another
large shipment will be the result. The
coin is sent to the sub-treasury at st.
Louis and the banks are given credit for
the money at that place. Coin shipments
in such sums are new from this city
and if the present tide continues in bank
ing circles, other banks will be forced
to do the same as has the Kansas Ma

Some time ago he received a letter from
the fellow in which it was implied that
the writer was counterfeiting. Frantz
said he answered the letter in order to
hnd out if that was the case. He wanted
to learn if the fellow was really in that
business
A few days after the man received
Frantz' letter he was arrested and IL
that way Frantz was implicated. It was
simply case of mans curiosity get
ting him into trouble.
DIR. Frantz has been in the hardware
business at Canton, Kansas, for ten
years. His arrest came as a shock to the
community in which he lived. His stand
ing in the town is excellent He is a
member of the Masonic lodge and stands
well in the order
1t was an unfortunate occurrence for
Mr.. Frantz yet his home people did not
lose confidence in him and will rejoice
that he is released

FRANZ IS RELEASED
Brought Here on CounterfeIting
Charge.

Charge.
J. N. Franz, who was held here on the
charge of eounterfeiting was released yes
terday. He was taken before United
States Commissioner Sherman where he
was proven innocent IF the charge. Be
ing released, he took the train for his
home at Canton. Kansas.
This is the man that was arrested about
two weeks ago by Deputy United States
Marshal Fred Trfgg and brought to this
city. Until yesterday he was confined
In the county Jail. His hearing before
the commissioner was set two or three
times but did not come eff until yester-
day. It was postponed each time in or
der to investigate the case more.
1t was proved concIusively yesterday
that he was not guilty Of the charge.
Testimony was introduced from Canton,
showing that the man was respected and
above reproach there,
There was nothing more than circum-
(stancial evidence to begin with. coun-
terfeiter was arrested sometime ago at
TT Scott and upon his person was found
a letter from Frantz. The letter made
inquiries as to how the counterfeiting bus
mess was manipulated
The authorities took it for granted that
Frantz was an accomplice. The man at
FIT Scott implicated Frantz in the bust
ness so he was arrested.
The way he explained the letter matter
yesterday was that he used to know the
man at TT. Scott as an honest citizen.

PAY FOR HER SERVICE
Suit Brought in Probate Court
Against Estate.

In the probate court yesterday Judge
Haymaker heard the case of Mrs. Anna
Niederlander versus the estate Of Mrs.
Carey Gibben, deceased. While not so
important as many cases, it proved to
be very complicated and interesting.
1t seems that in 1897 the claimant, Mrs.
Nieedrlander, then Miss Gibben, went to
Indianola, Iowa, to live with her uncle
and aunt. Mr.. and Mrs. Gibben. Both
of them were invalids and Miss Gibbons
took charge of the household. There
was a verbal contract, according to testi-
mony of claimant, that Mr.. Gibben was
to pay her for her services the same as
anyone else would be paid. However,
both Mr. and Mrs Gibben died without
renumerating their niece in any way. The
action brought by her yesterday was
against the estate of Mrs. Gibben to the
amount OF $500 for go weeks of service.
A number of witnesses testified that the
claimant had performed the services as
she alleged; that she had done all the
household work Of the deceased family
for over a year. And not only that, but
she had taken care of her uncle and aunt
all of that time. But it could not be
proved that there had been a contract be-
tween Mr.. Niederlander and her uncle to
the effect that she should receive pay
for her work
However, Judge Haymaker held, that
the husband, as head OF the house, was
responsible to the claimant. but as the
action was brought against the deceased
wife's estate, the claim could not be
legally allowed. So it was decided that
the woman Of the house was ont respon-
sible for the contract which was alleged
10 have been made between the claimant
and her uncle. Hence, the proper course
was TO bring action against the mans
estate.
Now 1t happens that Mr.. Gibben left
his property to the claimants father TO
satisfy some other claim so there is not
now any recourse TO that estate. The
father OF the claimant says she was
working for herself when in the deceased
family and there was no stipulation
that she should be paid out Of the de-
ceased uncle'S estate
The Claims of Mrs. Niederlander were
proven to the satisfaction OF the court
and there is no doubt but what the wo-
man should have pay for her services.

FOR A Ne ELEVATOR
h. F. Coates and VIM. Citation
are Projectors,
TO HAVE LARGE CAPACITY
Matter to be Settled at Cam
merciaI Club Meeting.

Mr.. r. F. Coates of the city and Mr.
William Chatter of Claflin, Kansas, are
contemplating the erection of a large ele-
Nator in this city for the handling of the
times of the year.
The gentlemen have decided on the site
and it is in the north part of the city,
convenient to all of the roads running
Into Wichita At the present time the
matter is before the Commercial club
for consideration, the purpose being for
tracks, and in this matter the elevator
people desired the assistance Of the bus
mess men in the club in the matter Of
suggestion and influence.
The matter Will be taken up at the
next meeting of the club, which viii be
in few days. and the arrangement will
><hen be definitely settled. The elevator,
when erected will be one of the largest
In this part of the state and viii have a
large storage capacity. The machinery
will be entirely new and if the plans are
arranged for the work of constructing
the building it will be commenced with
in the next few wekks.
An elevator of this kind would be a
fine thing for the city. Il is true that
Wichita has elevators at this time, but
there is more grain in the immediate ter
rftory than they could possibly handle
even with an increased capacity. The
shipments of wheat and corn from this
section of the country is large and the
greater portion Of it, could it be handled
here, would be Of immense benefit to the
city.
Messrs Coates and Chatter, who are
at the head of the enterprise. are well
known grain men Mr.. Coates has
pany of this city and Mr.. Chatter is
president of the Claf7in Grain company
Of western Kansas. Both men know
what they are figuring on in this mat
ter. They realize that Wichita needs
mcsre elevators. They know that there
is grain in this part of the state and that
II should come to the city.
These men have been in this section
IF the state for a number of years and
Ley know Of the future Of the city and
Is surrounding country.
AS to the capacity of the elevator in
'usifhels it is not yet known, but from
he plans it will be larger than anything
a This portion of Kansas. The idea has
zee, n to have 1t located in such a place
Ia It it would be accessible to all roads
nj in that matter more grain could be
aslsily handled than by ether plans.

1T NOW NUMBERS ia
Old Soldiers Organ zatiOR Rapidly
Ga ming Members

Nearly all the old soldiers are joining
the Mckinley and Roosevelt club. The
club was organized a few weeks ago. 1t
was the hope then to get 700 members.
The organization now numbers IA.
Some time ago it was claimed that the
majority of the old soldiers would sup
port Bryan this year. That does not
seem to be the facts Of the case from the
way they are allying themselves to the
Republican forces.
At every Republican rally the old sold
iers are out and occupy the front seats
in the auditorium. They are always the
first to cheer the speaker. When he is
through with his speech they are there
there to speak words of praise and en-
enlargement. No class is more enthus-
iastic, more untiring in this campaign
than the old soldiers.
Mr.. ]. N. Knapp is president of the club.
To his ceaseless activity during the last
three weeks is largely due the success of
the organization.

Mr. Kerr, the registerer, said yesterday
that street fair week was the busiest

The instruments fled are mostly war
