Burton and Mulvane Looking
For One IN Territory.

Senator J. R. Burton and National
Committeeman Dave Mulvane left to-
day for the Indian Territory to look the
ground over in the interests OF George
Findlay.
There are collectorships and other
places to be disposed of in the Terri
tory and as F'indlay must have a place
he may be landed among the Indians.
Findlay is still sticking to the assertion
that he Will be internal revenue collec-
tor in Kansas but those who know
claim that Jim Simpsons claim on the
collectorship is stronger than ever and
that ne will land it. Burton joined
AIulvane here this afternoon at the
Santa Fe depot and they left for the
Territory expecting to return Thursday
when q conference VIII be held in To-
peka. Frank Grimes will be home in
time for the Thursday meeting and

the announcement Of several days ago,
the hoop mill that the United States
Steel corporation has been equipping in

volumes of smoke but the machinery
was not started. Vice President Ward,
of the Amalgamated association de-
clared that the mill was not started be-
cause the company did not have a suffi-
cient of experienced men to operate it.
officials of the company declined to
discuss the matter or to say when an
attempt would be made to operate the
mill. 1t IS understood, however, that
it is proposed to begin work next

St Louis, No, July 22.-Sunday, the
day that Governor Dockery designed

souri,, all records for hot weather in st.
Louis were smashed, the weather bureau
thermometer on the custom house reg
istering los degrees in the shade On
the streets and in exposed places, the
mercury went many degrees higher
The record broken was that of 1O6,
made in the early 'S0s.
AS early as a. M, the day gave
promise of being unusually warm. At
that time the thermometer registered -
degrees, and. from then on. until $3.50
D. M. the mercury steadily climbed up
ward under the impulse of a fierce sun
shining from a cloudless sky. Hardly
a breath of air stirred all day and the
little that did circulate came as the
draught from a furnace, so intensely
hot was it. Those who dared to leave
their homes went for comfort to the
parks. which were thronged all day and
late into the night with thousands of
suffering humanity.
Two victims of heat were found dead
in bed. There were a number Of pros
trations, two Of which may prove fatal.

the state At different points the max
imum temperature was as follows:
Chillicothe, 114;Bolvling Green, 1l2 Paris,
1OS; Monroe City. 1O7; Springfield, 100.
The governors proclamation was
very generally needed, nearly every
church in the city holding well attend
ed services given up to prayer that the
drouth, which has prevailed several
months and threatens the destruction
of all vegetation, with consequent loss
and suffering, might be broken.
This is the second proclamation OF
the character that has been made in
the history of Missouri. In 1875, a time
of drouth and grasshopper pest, Cover
nor Charles H. Hardin called upon the
people of the state to call for relief
This call was also generally observed.

HOT ALL OVER.
Sunday Was a Record Breaker in
Many Places.


Washington, July 22--The weather
bureau has issued the following spe-
cia1 bulletin:
Practically the entire country was
covered by the hot wave Sunday. ex-
cept the immediate Pacific coast and
in the states of Iowa, Missouri and Tlli-
nois nearly all previous high records
were exceeded. The maximum temper
ature line of 100 degrees encircles the
entire great corn belt. At Davenport
and Dubuque, Ia, and at Springfield,
ILL., the maximum of 103 degrees was
two degrees above the highest previous
record, while at st. Louis the maxi
mum was 10S degrees. At Chicago the
maximum of lob degrees equals the pre-
vious high record of July 10 of the pres
ent year. In the states of Iowa, Mis-
souri, and Kansas the duration of the
present heated term is without prece-
dent, there having been practically no
interruption to 1empera lures of 80 de-
grees or over since June Is, period of
"a days. On 18 days of this period the
maximum temperature at Kansas City
was 100 degrees9Sr n ore.
There are as yet no indications of
any relief from the abnormal heat. No
rain has fallen In the corn belt for the
past three days and none is in sight.
It is, of course. probable that scattered
local thunderstoTms. which are always
accompaniment of protracted periods
of heat, may fall at times. but no hope
can be entertained at this time of any
