BOTH MUST GO.
Successors For Chairman AIbaugh and
Secretary Brown Discussed

Secretary Brown Discussed
That Morton Albaugh, chairman. and
Frank Brown, secretary. of the Repub-
Iican state committee, will not again be
chosen for these positions is practically
a foregoue conclusion. The Republicans
throughout the state have taken up this
fight IN earnest, and even the most
sanguine supporters of AIbaugh and
Brown admit that their reelection is
an impossibiIity-
Under these circumstances it is said
that A1baugh and Brown Will effect a
graceful escape from the inevitable by
declining at the proper time, TO per-
nit the use Of their names in cOnnec-
ton with the places.
Tom Kelly. assistant state treasurer,
is being talked OF for Browns place
IN fact, Mr.. Kelly is the only man at
this time mentioned In connection with
this place
The realization of the fact that new
chairman viii be chosen has come upon
the politicians so suddenly that few
men have been discussed
Dave Mulvane was honored with
quite a boom for the place, but he has
announced that under no circumstances
would he accept the position At this
time there is no available man in
sight. E. B. JeWett, Of Wichita has
been talked of because he IS close to
the governor and the state adninistra-
to the Seventh district is also a ques-
tion- It is customary for the state Off
GERS to select the chairman, and the
Seventh district officers could capture
it if they stood together.
Charles Lobdeu has also been men,
toned for chairman Lobdel is now at
work IN the headquarters at the Cope
land. Roy Richey, one of the state
headquarters veterans, is also at work
there. The two men are in charge of
the headquarters and are planning for
the state campaign this year. They
are now getting up maps and charts
containing political information con-
corning Kansas and showing too the
votes of the respective parties, the plat
forms of the past In fact, these men
are outlining the work just the same as
if they were the state committee
Mr. AIbaugh and Mr. Brown. realiZ-
ing that they must vaeate, do not at
the present time care to go into the
committee headquarters and perform a
great amount of work which they will
be compelled to turn over to their sue

pleaded a press of other business, and

BURGLARS RICH HAUL.
Chicago Porch Climber Secures
Jewels Worth 100000.

Chicago. April 11-some estimates
place the amount the porch climbers
secured at the home Of Orrin W. Potter.
the multi-millionaire and ex-president
of the Illinois Steel company. as high
as 900 The plumber. the most val
liable secured by thieves IN Chicago in
years. consisted Of diamonds. jewelry,
and silverware. The home Of Mr.. Potter
is a great mansion at the corner of
Burton Place and Lakeshore drive. It
is supposed the thieves climbed up the
marble pillars of the porch on the Bur
ton Place side and forced open the bal
eony windows. The family were at din
ner when the robbery was committed.
They had no intimation of the theft IN
til Miss Potter went upstairs soon after
dinner. She at once missed a jeweIed
brooch and a hurried investigation
showed that robbers had been at work
Miss Potter at once notified her father
and in fifteen minutes it was found
that the second floor of the house had
been ransacked-
It was found that more than $50, 900
worth Of jewels was missing The fam
lily decided rot to make known their
loss for while, at least, or to notify the
police, having the hope that the thieves
might make q proposition to return the
jewels for a ransom
Some Of the jewels are of such de-
sign and appearance that for the thieves
to attempt to dispose of them in the
ordinary way would only invite cap
ture. A diamond necklace belonging
TO Mrs Potter is the most valuable
single article that was taken. Some
Marquise rings were also in the booty
AT the residence the following state
ment was made. 1T was between Z
and o'clock when the robbery oc-
Cured All who were in the house at
the time were at dinner, and the Sarv-
ants were busy in the kitchen and
dining room. The burglars entered an
upstairs window in front of the house.
They scaled the porch and pFied open
noise to be heard below They were in
the house probably not more than if
teen minutes, but in that time they
went through ali the upstairs rooms.
The manner in which they had gone
through places where 5ewelry might be
kept would indicate they were accuS-
toned to the work. There was no
large amount of Jewelry. The amount
taken is not above $50. 000.''
This is the third big burglary within
a week on the fashionable Lakeshore
drive. The police are of the opinion
that one gang has done all the work.
and the character Of the operations
shows the members to be experts IN
