after being attacked by about an
equal force of Beers; and also several
other more or less important engage

numerous. Here in London the scenes

That little phrase, 'the authorities

DOLPHIN'S STATEMEN
Asked Arbitration Which Was Peremp-

Topeka, Dec. 15.-In discussing the

ment:
1.-The status of the Atchison strike is
most reassuring and our success seems
certain. am surprised to find that
Santa Fe managing officers have re-
sorted to Misrepresentation of facts,
threats, intimidation and forged tele-
grams in their attempt to defeat the
cause of the striking telegraphers.
THAT the public may not be misled
and our men imposed upon, it should
be understood that the last endeavor
of the men on the Gulf lines TO avoid
the existing conflict was to request the
president and vice president of the
Atchison system to agree to refer all
existing differences to arbitration, to
which request Mr.. Ripley and Mr. Barr
both replied peremptorily refusing to
arbitrate or consider the rules govern
ing the conditions of service.
Prospecting their claim of bad faith

article has no bearing whatever on

ing hazard and risk of life, limb and
pspperty on the Santa Fe lines will

and cause them to adjust the existing
differences between the company ane
its employees.

JURY STAND NINE TO THREE,
Miss Jessie Morrison viii be Ad-

COURT DISCHARGES JURY.

FL Dorado, Dec. 15.-There are all
sorts of speculations atloat here. Judge
Shinn would give out no information as
to the length of time he will hold the
Morrison-Castle jury. Some say they
are assured that the jury will be kept
the rest of the week, while others were
predicting on Thursday that Judge
Shinn would discharge them on that
night. No one knows anything about
how any of the ballots by the jury
stood
letter from Wichita. 1t was written
n feminine hand and signed with
the initials "E. s." The letter warned
Castle that young man in Ell Dorado
had informed the wrI ter of his intent
to shoot Castle. Castle paid no atten-
ton to the matter.
The jurors have had but about half
hours exercise each day. For fifteen
minutes following the afternoon and
evening meals, Bailiff John Long leads
them for walk about the town.
Judge Shinn Said to the jury:
1.-THE court has no desire to force
verdict from the jury. 1t has no desire
that any Juror shall assent to any yer
dict that his Judgment and conscience
does not approve.

Hard Lines FOR the sooner.

Wellington, Dec. 17.-Dwight Harris
of this city, received word few days
ago that his presumption right to a
fine bottom farm in Kay county, Ok,
had been confirmed by the commits
sioner of the general land Office
at Washington. Harris took the claim
at the time of the opening in 1898, but
was contested by sooner" and the
case has not been fully decided till
now. The farm is one of the best in
the Chikaskia valley and is worth at
least So, 200. This is hard for the man
who made the farm.

PRACTICALLY UNCHANGED.
Strikers Say The Outcome Of The
Strike Is Already Won.
NUDGE SAYS "WAR OF WORDS"

Topeka, Dec 17.-The officers of the
strikers say they are not prepared just
now to give out all the information
! they have, but they intimate that they
will have something to suggest in a
few days which viii surprise the peo-
pie, especially the officers of the Santa
Fe road.
President Dolphin says he feels as
sure of the ultimate outcome of the
strike as he would be if it were already
won. He sets week as the time for
the strike to end and be won.
Chairman Newman, of the grievance
committee, was much pleased over the
foggy weather. He said that the new
men did not understand the manner
of adjusting their instruments to the
stormy weather conditions, and as
result the train reports were being
hopelessly delayed.
President Dolphin says there are
some ship loads of freight at Galveston
which the road cannot move and upon
which 5000 day demurrage on each
ship is to be paid.
General Manager Nudge of the Santa
Fe still appears to be very sanguine
about the outcome. He says that the
strike has descended to mere war of
words between the company and the
strikers, and that nothing more seri-
Gus will result. Mr.. Nudge says there
has not been bit of diminution of the
business of the company SO far as
freight is concerned, and that the
company can well afford to GO along
in the present condition of affairs. He
remarks that if the strikers can stand
the present arrangements he surely
can, and that, as far as the officers of
the road are concerned, the strikers
can carry forward their fight as long
as they desire.

Getting Competent Men.

Chicago, Dec. 13.-Referring to the
report that the company was filing
strikers places with incompetent
operators, President Barr said: ''We
did write to two schools in Iowa ask
ing for competent operators. The men
sent us in every instance were thor
oughly examined, and will have to pass
another examination when they reach
the places to which they are assigned.
We do not want the old employees to
return. Their places have been filled
with competent men and we will
retain them"

Ell Dorado, Dec. 13.-The first session
of the jury to determine the fate OF
Jessie Morrison lasted thirteen hours
when they were given rest. The dis
cussion in the jury room was loud, and
apparently turbulent One of the
jurymen was sick and called for medi-
cal aid. While his sickness was not
serious it may be a hindrance to get
ting a verdict.
Local sentiment points to MONTREAL
by reason of failure to reach a verdict.
This would mean another trial and
probably change of venue. 1T is
known that whatever verdict is found,
short of acquittal, would be contested
by the defense.

He said that he had received applica-

as they had violated their contracts
and the company had dismissed them
from the service

THREE FOR FOURTH DEGREE.
Prisoners Testimony More Effective
Than any Other.
COST OF ANOTHER TRIAL,

FL Dorado, Dec. 1.-THE prisoner
Jessie Morrison, wept when Judge
Shinn discharged the jury, for she had
hoped for acquittal until the last. TIC
her family and her attorneys, however,
the result is gratifying. 1t is the more
so because a verdict of first degree MUIR
der was not for moment considered
by the jury. Those who voted for con-
viction were for manslaughter in the
fourth degree, which would mean i'm
prisonment of from six months in the
county Jail to two years in the peni-
Tertiary.
The defense feels, too, that it has ac-
complshed great deal in overcoming
public sentiment. When the trial
commenced, nine-tenths of the people
of Ell Dorado believed Jessie Morrison
had killed Clara Wiley Castle in cold
blood.
Jessie Morrison has more friends now
than she had before she wens on the
witness stand to testify in her own de-
Tense. Foreman Hewitt, of the jury,
made this statement to a reporter for
the Kansas City Journal:
1.-THE prisoners testimony was more
effective than any other in inducing
nine of us to vote for acquittal. She
was her own best witness. The dying
statement OF Mrs. Castle was not given
great credence, because it passed
through too many hands. The only
point on which all of us agreed was
that DIN Castles testimony was worth
less. Most of us thought that he ought
to have been in Mrs. Castles place"
There seems to be a strongly devel-
oped sentiment in Butler county
against trying Jessie Morrison again
District Clerk Osborn said that the eX-
pense of the present trial would be be-
tween So, 500 and $4,000.

we do to send Jessie Morrison to the

Berlin, Dec. 13.-It is dawning upon
the German press and public that the
American secretary of state, has Sc
cured an out and out diplomatic VIC
tory in obliging the powers, Germany
included, to yield to his arguments in
favor of more moderate terms in the
joint note by the allied ministers. This
clearly defined defeat is especially Bit
ter here, because Emperor William had
set his heart upon imposing the most
humiliating conditions upon the Chi
pese and thus emphasizing Germany's
power in the East.

Law Books Bound in Canvas.

Topeka, Dec. 17-Kansas is about to

bound it's lawbooks in leather. A
Kansas publisher contends that leather
is not the proper binding; that it rots
QUICKLY. He claims that canvas bind
ing is the most durable and is much
cheaper. In accordance with his
advice the attorney general will
recommend that the legislature pass
law providing. that all lawbooks
published after this be bound in cam
vas instead of leather.

Guess ut Presidents Wishes.

Washington, Dec. 13.-1t is learned
upon good authority that the shake-up
which will follow the re-inauguration
of President Mckinley will probably
affect Secretary Hitchcock. The pres
ident is said to desire Senator Carter,
of Montana, to become secretary of the
interior, and it is well understood that
Senator Carter is willing to accept the
place, so that it is expected Mr.. Hitch
cock will either retire or be transferred
to another cabinet place.
