Millions Wanted For Changed Con-
d1tions After July l.

New York, June 23.-Extra forces of
pressmen and other employees of the
bureau of engraving and printing are
working night and day, says a Wash
ington dispatch to the Press, to supply
the new stamps necessary on next Mon
day, when the amended war revenue
act goes into effect. The same condition
prevails in the internal revenue bureau
of the treasury department. Thousands
of stamps are being sent out on every
mail train They are consigned to the
internal revenue collectors of every
state and territory in the union, Porto
Rico and Hawaii.
The movement toward furnishing the
stamps was inaugurated months ago
Since the first estimates the orders
have had to be increased materially
An entirely new issue of beer and cigar
stamps have been designed, engraved
and printed Commissioner OF Internal
Revenue Yerkes has just issued per-
mission to the collectors at large beer
producing and cigar manufacturing
cities to open their offices Immediately
after midnight on Sunday His object
is to allow the brewers and cigar man
ufacturers to get supplies of stamps be-
tween that hour and the time for the
opening of business at daylight on
Monday morning. The new tax regula-
tions go into effect Immediately after
midnight Of June 80.
An idea of the extent of the beer and
cigar trade in the country is shown in
the figures for the first months supply

MAY DO MORE SMASHING
Home Defenders Meet and Dis
cuss the LieEOr Situation.


The Home Defenders met at DR.. Eva
Harding's office Wednesday evening tc
discuss plans for a campaign against
the common enemy. The feasibility OF
smashing the semi-weekly carload Of
beer from Kansas City which stands on
the track in North Topeka until un-
loaded and transferred to the cold
storage plants, was thoroughly dis
cussed. The assembly was informed
that a carload of beer for Cash Curtis
and one for Frank Raynor were un-
loaded every week from the Rock ISL
and and Union Pacific sidetracks.
The Defenders are still an organiza-
tion of some magnitude, and they are
fully resolved to do something toward
the abatement of the nuisance in tie
near future. Not long ago they met
for the purpose of seizing a carload OF
beer billed to Curtis, but the n en- of the
party weakened and talked the women
out. of the notion, thereby calling off
the proposed raid. The next time they
get together they will leave the male
members. out, and thereby insure a sue
cessful attack on the enemy. The De-
tenders keep well posted on the move
ments of the jointists and wholesalers.
They say that beer never came to To
peka in carload lots until after Hughes
was declared mayor.
Last week DR.. Harding called up
Mayor Hughes by telephone and told
him that a carload of beer was being
unloaded In North Topeka Thank
you, madam, thank you,' replied the
mayor as he hastily hung up the re-
ceiVer.

TO save HUSBAND
Wife Confesses to a Murder of
Which She is Innocent.

Columbus, Ohio, June 28.-Mrs. Edwin
Ruthven, wife of the Cleveland MUIR
derer, who was electrocuted at the PEN
itentiary early today, made a last effort
to save the life of her husband. In the
presence of Rev w. M Langford and
others she declared that she herself
killed Policeman Shipp. She said that
on the night of the murder she and her
husband had little quarrel and she
left the house to cool her wrath. She
met Charles Jacobs, the mysterious in
dividual of whom Ruthven spoke so
often, and he asked for Edwin, saying
that he had job on hand. She told
him that her husband was not at home,
but that she would help. According to
her story she dressed herself in her
husbands clothing and assisted Jacobs
in committing the burglary. Policeman
Ship appeared on the scene and Jacobs
fed. leaving her alone with the police
man. She said she shot and killed
Shipp. Ruthven, when told of the con-
fession, declared that it was not true
and that his wife was innocent of any
crime

SAFE ROBBER HANGED.
Claim of German Citizenship
Failed to Save Him.

Birmingham, Ala, June 2S.-Frank
Miller, a safe robber, who murdered
Policeman Adams, was hanged here at
1885 o'clock today
The crime for which Frank Miller
was hanged was the murder of Po-
liceman J. W. Adams one night in
March, 1900. Earlier in the night the
safe of the Standard Oil company had
been blown open and robbed by gang
of five men. About midnight Policemen

both of them and escaping. Later Mil
Ter and Duncan were apprehended.
Miller was convicted and given the
death penalty, and Duncan was given
a life sentence in the penitentiary.
After the supreme court had affirmed
his sentence Miller appealed to the
German ambassador, claiming German
citizenship and that official requested
the governor to commute Miller's sem
tence, but this request was not grant

Washington, July ga curious dis
crepancy concerning the amount Of the
Chinese indemnities has developed, by
which it appears that China has agreed

900 more than the united demands or
all the powers. Just how this occurred
is not clear to officials, but it appears
to have been an error of calculation at
Pekin. in the first place by those max
ing up the indemnities, and later by the
Chinese in their hasty acceptance of the
total. AS finally made up this total was
45O, O,000,0 taels, but the present calcula-
ton, after taking in all of the demands
that are known, makes the total only
415, ,000. 900 taels. In the meNWltime China
has agreed to pay the larger amount.
SO that the question now arises what
will become of the excess of 35.000,000
taels.
Another which has arisen in this con-
nection is as to the amount of bonds
which shall be issued to Japan, as that
country has drawn attention to the fact
that its share of indemnity cannot be
negotiated on as favorable terms as
some of the other powers can make. 1t
is understood that the matter has been
considered of sufficient Importance to
bring to the attention of the president,

IN A FIGHTING REGION.
BIOodshed is Looked For at Amy
Time at Lick Fork Mines.

Thacker. w. Va, June 2s.-The situa-
ton in the coal fields is very quiet still
so far as any breach between the mine
guards and the strikers is concerned
but Sheriff Hatfield and other company
officials as well as conservative citi-
zens of Matewan and Thacker fear
that feud may break out as the result
of the firing upon the Daniel boys of
Kentucky by the mine guards last Fri
day. A raid by the Kentuckians is not
considered out of the question and
should it occur blood would be shed,
as the Daniels are determined and
fearless men, able to call to their as
sistance a strong following of well
armed friends.
Open expressions of fear for the life
of Supt. Sam t. Lambert, of the Lick
Fork mines, from this source are freely
made, but Lambert apparently does not
share in the anxiety, as he spent all of
yesterday at Tllacker. in plain view and
within easy rifle range of the Kentucky
hills.
The discussion of the possibility of
future trouble in this direction has to
all outward appearances, temporarily
shelved the strike situation, which has
attained the status of a waiting game

WAS A HUGE SUCCESS.
Chief StahI's Picnic Attracts at
Least 1000 People.

Fully 5000 people were huddled
around on a space not larger than an
acre at the twenty-second annual Stahl
picnic five miles southwest of Auburn
yesterday
The people began going there early
in the morning in carriages and farm
wagons, buggies and buckboards, on
horse back and mule back but none OF
them walked. There was red lemonade
and pink lemonade and orange cider
and all sorts Of catch penny devices
that go with q large picnic. The pro-
gramme was begun at 10 O'Clock with 4
selection by Vests band, from Auburn.
Six Sunday schools had places on the
programme and gave recitations and
songs. After dinner Rev. Charles NJ
Sheldon and James A. Troutman spoke
on temperance.
The picnic is a purely Sunday school
and temperance affair but it is a Mecca
for politicians. SO. when Cyrus Leland
was seen on the grounds it was sup
posed that he was there with some
deep laid political plot to capture some
body or something. But Leland was
there simply to look on. He amounted
to nothing compared to his son, VIII
Leland, who recited THE Burning

The speaking, recitations. singing and
band music took up all the afternoon
and in the evening Tony. the Convict, =
was given by Auburn talent. The play
lasted two and a half hours.

We're Repeated Today But Be-

London, June 2S.-The royal procla-
nation announcing that the coronation
of King Edward is to take place in
June next, the exact day not yet being
determined upon, was read this morn
ing at st. James palace, Temple Bar
and the Royal exchange. with all the
quaint, mediaeval scenes which mark
ed the occasion of the proclaining OF
the accession Of the king. Today's GER
emonial was unheralded,so the crush
was not so great as on the previous oc-
casion, but crowds quickly gathered
from all directions and thronsed the
points at which the announcement was
read. The ceremony began at ST.
James, where. from the purple drapcd
balcony of the palace. the Norroy king
of arms CWilliam Henry Weldon). in a.
brilliant uniform, accompanied by the
heralds and pursuivants, in gorgeous
tabards and numerous state officials
read the proclamation.
At the appointed hour four state
trumpters lavishly adorned in gold en-
brOidered tunicS, appeared in front OF
the balcony. BY their side stood the
Norroy king of arms. 1anked by two
Royal macers, bearing gold maces, and
surrounded by the blue mantle Gordon

Herald (Henry Farnham Burke): the
York Herald (Alfred Scott Scott-Gatty)
and the Windsor Herald (William Al
exander Lindsay, all in their fun Off
cial regalia, and the Earl Marshall the
Duke of Norfolk). the Lord Stewart
(the Earl Of Pembroke); the Lord
Chamberlain (the Earl of Clarendon)
and others.
The trumpeters sounded a prouacted
fanfare and then the Norroy king OF
arms barred his head and read the proc
lamation in a clear voice, which must
have been audible to the royal party
occupying a stand on the grounds of
Marlborough house, facing the balcony
of the palace. King Edward wore an
adnirals uniform. Queen Alexandra
and the others of the royal party
watched the ceremony with the great
est interest. the king using field glass

Talk of Knocking Out Anti
Fourth Firearm Ordinance.

Tt is possible that the anti-shooting
ordinance will be repealed when the
city council meets next Monday even
ing. A movement has been started to
that end and the purpose is to take the
embargo off the use of blank cartridges.
Several Topeka merchants have pur-
chased large stock of blank cartridges
one man invested 5000 and another
about $500 and the enforcement of the
ordinance would mean that they would
be left with large stock on their
hands.
The police overstepped the bounds in
prohibiting the use of large hrecrack-
ers. The city ordinance makes no men
ton of firecrackers and the small boy
may use as large a cracker as his sup
ply of pocket money will warrant and
be safe from arrest BY the police.

seventy-three motor cars completed the

from here in the same order in which
they arrived.

Keene was thrown into a potato Held,
but was not seriously hurt.
Paris, June 2S.-The latest news re-

where the two leaders, Fournier and
Girardot came into collision, their ma
chimes then dashing into a crowd OF
spectators. One child was seriously in
jured.
The Herald's European edition prints
the following on the chances of the con-
testants in the automobile race:
The first stage of the ParlS-Berln
race has been won by NJ Fournier, who
covered the 456 kilometers in hours,
% minutes, q seconds, thus averaging
20 kilometers an hour.
The time does not compare favorably
with M. Fournier's winning time of 80
kilometers an hour in the Paris-Bor-
deaux race, but the roads to AK are not
so good at to Bordeaux Barring acci-
dents, M. Fournier is now considered
the favorite although Nm. de Knyff,
