THE ANTI-JOINT CRUSADE.
ths Saloon Men of Topeka Keeping Thslr Heads Under Cover and Their
 Dccrs Fact Locked.

Topeka, Kas., Feb. 12.-The local liquor situation is practically un- changed to-day. The saloon men are keeping their heads under cover and their doors are securely locked. They apparently mean to keep them closed, and preparations are being made to remove the bars and fixtures.
 Last night few bars were moved from the joints and stored away. All the bartenders are out of work and the jointists are standing aroundtallS ing over the situation. Beer wagons have stopped their usual rounds.
 .'I think that all the. joints were closed last night" said Chief Stahl to- day. All that | visited were quiet. I did not go across the river. There was talk that one or two were run ming, but if they were they were up stairs and not where they could be easily found. The committee seems to be well pleased and thinks that tho jointists are cowed. The people do not let me in on all the news and don't get anything definite, but I think l have a better chance to know what is going on than some people, and l believe there is an organization of 1000 persons, with officers from colonel down to corporal, ready to move on the joints if they do not close up. What the organization will do 1 can not say"

 "One of the results of the closing of the canteen at Fort Wayne was witnesses yesterday in row among several soldiers of the fort, after a drinking bout in one of the neighbor- hood saloons.

Jonas knocked his assailant down with bayonet. He then went to an outside surgeon and had four stitches taken in his wound, while his assailant was at tended by the post surgeon.
