INCREASE is $4,000.
Railroad Assessments That
Much Larger Than Last Year.

The state board of railroad assessors
today completed the work of fixing the
valuation of Kansas railroad property
The total increase for the year. on ac-
count of new equipment and improve
ments. amounts to only $4,000.
Important increases have been made
in the valuation of some of the property
because of the additional equipment and
improvements as compared with last
year, but number of reductions have
been made in important places which it
is estimated by the board will add only
$4,000 to the total assessed valuation of
all the railroad property in this state.
Today the assessors increased the val
nation of the Union Pacific $32, 500. The
Rock Island was given an increase OF
$4,000.
The Pullman company has added five
new cars to the Kansas service which
makes the total increase for that COM
pany amount to $25, 600. This was agreed
to by the board today.
The work of the board today completes
the consideration of railroad property.
According to the provisions of the law
the board will next Monday convene as
an assessing board to take up the tele-
graph and telephone companies.
In the telephone assessments there
are to be several important increases.
In the first place the property of the
company is to be given a substantial
as many Independent telephone systems
in the state now as there were last year
and all of these will be added to the tax

FROM ALL QUARTERS.
Delegates Are Gathered For
the Methodist General
Conference.

Chicago, May 1.-The Methodist Epis-
copal church is represented by delegates
from the four corners of the earth in
Chicago today. OF the $50 delegates who
will attend the opening meeting of the
general confer ence of 1900 tomorrow
nearly all have arrived. This number
does not include the provisional lay
delegates who have also arrived.
The contest over seating the prOviS-
ional lay delegates will follow the de-
VotiOnal exercises which, conducted by
the venerable Bishep Bowman, will
mark the opening of the great confer
ence tomorrow morning. 1t is predicted
that the contest will be spirited and
that it will consume a least the first
three days Matters pertaining to
changes in rules and the making of ap-
pointments can not be touched until this
matter is settled. In the ranks of the
PROFESSIONALS the case of Mrs. M. Y. Nc
Mahan, the Griggsv1Ile, Ill, delegate,
was the cause of much speculation to-
day. She has not arrived and whether
or not she will retire in favor of her al
ternate, a man, is still left to the future.
By so doing it is said among the pro-
visiOnalS she would simplify their posi-
ton, for by seating her as a delegate,
the members of the conference would
also sanction the election of women del
egates.
OF the eighteen bishops comprising
the board of bishops all but Bishops
ThOburn and Hartseu were here today.
They met during the day and ratified
the bishops address, a paper containing
$4,000 words 1t will be read Immediate
ly following the settlement of the pro-
visiOnal delegate problem, according to
present plans. Interest in the idea Of
reuniting the Methodist church south
with the main body, was intensified to-
day by the arrival of eighty-five dele
gates from south of Mason and DXon's
line. OF these siXty-fVe We're coloTed.
Charles B. Galloway of Jackson, Miss,
influential in this branch of the church
is expected 70 make vigorous plea for
the closing OF breach made in 1884 over
the slavery question Two eastern dele
cations differing about the proposition
to raise the ban on dancing, card play
ing and theatrical amusement have ar
rived. The delegates from the New
York, New York east and the Newark
conferences are prepared to advocate
the change in the rules while the New
England delegations are said to favor
that the rules be left unchanged

ALASKAN BILL PASSED.
Senate Takes Up Army Appropriation
Bill.

Washington, May 1.-The senate today
passed the Alaskan Code bill. Before the
vote was taken, Mr. Carter, in charge
of the measure, said it had become evil
dent that further effort to press the
pending amendments relating to the
location of mine claims would result in
the defeat of the bill He therefore ask
ed unanimous consent that sections p
and 70 of the bill and all amendments
thereto including his own be withdrawn
The request was granted and the bill
passed.
Mr. Proctor called up the bill to in
crease the efficiency Of the military
establishment of the United States, bet
ter known as the army reorganization
bill, and it was read in full. The sen.
ate then agreed to proceed with the
consideration of the measure.
Mr. Proctor, however, had the bill laid
aside and the senate took up for consid-
Grafton the army appropriation bill. The
bill as it passed the house carried S112,-
.494. AS reported to the senate it
carried $1149 $50.

BIG MEN INVITED.
Charles Emory Smith and Others May
Visit Topeka.

It il probable that some of the high
officials of the postoffice department will
be in attendance at the state conven-
tion of Kansas postmasters to be held
in Topeka on May q and p. Post
master Guthrie has extended invitations
to Charles Emory Smith, postmaster
general; Perry S. Heath, w S. Shella-
barger, E. c. Madden and J. L. Bristow,
first, second, third and fourth assistant
postmasters general, respectively; j. F.
Metcalf, superintendent of the money
order bureau; A. W. Matchen, general
superintendent of delivery; Ward Bur-
lingame, of the dead letter office; S. P.
Tafe superintendent of the railway
mail service, and r. f. Lawson, editor
Of the Country Postmaster, of Efing-
ham, III.
Just how many of these will accept
the invitations is not, of course, known,
but Judge Guthrie expects J. L. Bris
tow to be present, and probably Ferry
s. Heath, and some of the various su
perintendents.
Judge Guthrie is daily receiving let
ters from postmasters in various parts
of the state relative to the matter, and
a large attendance is expected. Spe-
cial rates have been asked for from the
railroads.

LITTLE STREET PARKS.
Proposed improvement For
Topeka Avenue South of
Tenth.

The residents along Topeka avenue
between Tenth avenue and Twelfth
street have petitioned the city council
to allow them parkings in the center
Of Topeka avenue, instead of having the
avenue entirely paved.
The idea was suggested during the
visit of George H. LOring, of Minneap-
oils, several weeks ago, who stated that
this plan was carried out in some cities.
The city council had already ordered
the strip where the old street car track
will be taken up, to be paved, and since
then the contract to do the paving has
been let to H. K. Winans.
A petition was filed with the city clerk
today, asking the council to so change
the order for paving as to allow park
ings to be made in the middle of the av
enue as indicated by a drawing which
was filed with the petition. The petit
tiOn stated that the contractor agreed
to curb the parking instead of pave
them for the same price that he con-
tracted with the city for the paving.
The petition is signed by the owners Of
% lots.
The parkings, as shown by the plans,
will be eight feet wide. and there will oe
three in a block, with 100 feet of paving
between them to allow vehincles to pass
from one side of the park to the other.
The central park in each block will be
100 feet long, and the end parks will
each be 75 feet long. They will be oval
The curbing for the parks is to be
Colorado sandstone, to come eight
inches above the pavement, and to be
filed with rich black dirt. The parks
will be sodded with blue grass and pro-
baby ornamented with flower beds
which the residents along the avenue
viii care for
The Topeka avenue people believe
that this arrangement will greatly en-
hance the beauty of their avenue, and
for that reason they are anxious that
the council should allow the change to

CAN'T STOP FIRES.
Communication With Burning Coun-
try Is Cut Of.

Marinette. Wis, May There is no
communication with the burned dis
trict except by means of the $500 rail-
road telegraph line. There has been no
rain and the fires cannot be checked.
The passenger train which left here
Sunday morning was hemmed in in the
burned district and only got through
to Faithorn last night.
The plight of the people in the burned
district is terrible. as the country is
very dry. Many lumber camps have
been destroyed and farmers have fought
the fire to save their homes. The loss
viii probably reach several hundred
thousand dollars unless rain soon falls,
OF which there is no apparent prospect.
Fires are also burning along the Mil
Waukee and 500 roads and serious dam
age is feared there. The fires are burn
ing so heavily along the Milwaukee
road north Of Ellis Junction that pas
sengers are unable to put their heads
out of the windows so sitting is the
smoke. Middle Inlet and CedarviIle
have suffered from the deVasting
flames.

NO MORE PANIcs.

TFrom the Washington Post.1
1t is not to be expected that the times
will always be increasingly or uniform
lv good. That is not the way of human
affairs. Even if conditions in the
United States are not adversely affected
by domestic occurrences. they are some
what at the mercy offoreign events quite
beyond our control. The relations be-
tween demand and supply can not be so
regulated that we can always find a
profitable market for all that we can
produce. We could not continue to
prosper if the nations to which we sell
our wares were suffering adversely, for
the consuming capacity Of nation, like
that of the individual or family, is pro-
portioned to the purse. But it is a
demonstrated fact that this country
has, in existing conditions, a guarantee
against a recurrence of such terrible
depression as that of 1873 or 1893 We
have it in the vastly increased solidity
Of our finances resulting from settle
ment of foreign Indebtedness and i'm
portation of gold in payment for our
exports. We have it in the immeasur-
able superiority of our natural resources.
We are the worlds headquarters for
iron and cotton, and these two great
staples would alone go far toward stav-
ing off hard times. We are not only
ahead OF all rivals in agriculture and
mining, but are fast distancing competi-
ton in nearly all lines of manufacture.
Our machinery is the best and our skill
ed labor the most productive in the
world. In all this we have an assurance
that hard times can not again paralyze
our industries and wreck our hopes as
did either Of the two great crises of the
last thirty years.
Believing this the railway companies
are preparing to. meet the demands of
Increased business. They will expend
$50 900. 0OO this year. In this connection
we venture to suggest to those Of our
readers who revel in statistics that 1t
would be interesting to compare the
total value of all the property in the
United States when railway construc-
tion began. And the influence of rail-
ways in creating the value of other
properties would be a great theme for an
end-of-century disquisition.

ONE MILLION POUNDS.
Output of Penitentiary Twine Plant
For This Season.

Warden J. B. Tomlinson, of the state
penitentiary, in the city today on Off
cial business, announces that the prison
twine plant will turn out 1000 900
pounds of twine for this seasons har-
vests. One-tenth of that amount has
already been sold, and the warden has
the money for it. The most of the
twine now being purchased is being
shipped to Marshall, Washington and
Cowley counties.
The price for the prison twine is 1015
cents at the penitentiary. It runs 500
feet to the pound, despite the claims
by the agents of the trust that it con-
tains only 400 feet to the pound and is
an inferior twine.
1.-THE trust agents claim our twine is
made of old rope, rags, hay, straw. in
fact of any old thing we could get hold
Of said Warden Tomlinson. but the
facts are that our twine is made Of the
same material found in the trust twine
and it is of as good quality, if not
better"

CANAL BILL UP.
House Begins Consideration of the
Nicaragua Ditch.

Washington. May Under the order
made by the house last week, today
and tomorrow were set aside for the
consideration of the Nicaragua canal
bill An unsuccessful attempt was
made to reach an agreement as to the
length of general debate and the divi-
sion of time.
Mr.. Hepburn then offered the amend
ments of the committee, substituting
the word protect for defend" and
the words provision for defense for
Notifications for Defense" He made
the opening argument in support of the
bill
Mr. Hepburn was followed by Mr..
Shackelford who made the minority
report in favor of an additional sec
ton providing that the canal should
not be built if the Hay-Pauacefote
treaty was ratified. He favored build
ing the canal along the lines of his re-
port.
Mr.. Lowering (Mass.) supported the
bill.

KEEGAN ANS WERED.
Topeka Coal Dealer Says Mine In
spector Is Mistaken.

Topeka coal dealers assert that Mine
Inspector keegan does them an lnJus-
tice in his annual report in speaking of
the Labor Exchange at Usage City. Mr..
Keegan announces that the Topeka
dealers We're responsible for the ad-
vanced price of coal which prevailed
during the winter, stating that coal had
been purchased at the mine at 81 per
ton. At times, he says, coal has sold
as high as $3.50 to consumers in To-
peka.
In reference to these statements of
Mr.. Keegan, Mr.. ]. p. Butterfly, said to-
day:
During the time that coal was re-
tailed in Topeka = from "a to 81. so per
ton the dealers paid $3.50 per ton at the
mines. I sold coal at $3.50 a ton just
four days during the winter; at the end
of that time 1 found that it would pay
me to reduce my margin For a short
time it sold at $4.25, then it dropped to
"a. The freight on every ton of coal is
60 cents, and the drayage and shrinkage
will easily average SO cents. This makes
S1.10 to be added to the price per ton
at the mine, making a total of $3.50 per
ton to the dealer. Out of the profit deal
ers have had to secure livings and the
expense of renting and maintaining of
prices.
AT the present time Usage City coal
is selling at $3.50 per ton and can be
bought at the mine as low as $1.90. With
the freight, drayage and shrinkage de-
Quoted this leaves profit of so cents
per ton.
Mr.. Keegan says it would be an ex-
cellent thing for consumers if the La
Dor Exchange could succeed in throw
ing the midd1eman out of a job. The
Labor Exchange, or no other organiza-
tion. could sell coal without a middle
man to take the orders.
Il have lived in Topeka 20 years and
defy anyone to show me an exclusive
coal dealer who in that time has be-
come wealthy. I believe Mr.. Keegan
was misinformed and did not inten-
tionally do the coal dealers of Topeka
this Injustice.
