Who is Fighting the Administration Pol
icy as Usual.
The six senators who were not present
We're:
Depew, Dolliver. Frye. Hawley, ,Kearns
and Simon.
Senator Wellington, who has not act
ed with his party for two years, was
among those in attendance and was
among the first to present himself
Senator Allison made a brief address
in calling the conference to order and
he was followed by Senator Platte Comm
and Senator Burrows (Mich.) for and
against tariff reduction. Senator All
son pleaded for harmony good feeling
and a solid party front Senator Platt
explained the standpoint of those who
favor reduction of the tariff on Cuban
goods saying that the proposed reduc-
ton was in the direct line of policy
which had been outlined by President
Mckinley and as faithfully presented by
President Roosevelt He dWelt some
what on the necessity of preserving cor
dial relations with the Cuban people and
advocated the bill which was promul-
gated by the Republican members of
the Cuban committee, which bill was the
joint production of himself and Senator
SpOoner.
Senator Burrows presented the oppo-
site view, speaking for the beet sugar
advocates He cOntended for the regu-
larity, from a Republican and a protec-
tie standpoint of the position Of the
beet sugar men. He said they were not
opposed to doing something for Cuba
but they did not believe it necessary to
reduce the tariff for that purpose or if
necessary to take that step that the en-
tire burden should fall on the one in
dustry of farming. He argued that tile
beet sugar men were the real prOtec-
tionists
The discussion continued until the
conference adjourned at 10:45 to meet
again on the adjournment of the SEN
ate on Friday afternoon.
No conclusion was reached. but the
opinion was expressed, even by those
who would vote for a reciprocity bill,
that there was little possibility of pass
ing such a measure at this session of
congress. The IL beet sugar senators
present made speeches saying that they
would not SUPPORT the Spooner bill or
any measure of that character State
ments We're made for Senators Simon
(Ore) and Mason Qll-) to the effect that
they thoroughly agreed with their col
leagues in opposition to the reciprocity
bill The 19 senators thus accounted for
are:

TAX men HERE.
Proposed Measure Meets With
Little Objection.

The state tax revision commission
met IN State Auditor Coles Office this
morning to go over the proposed tax
bill for the last time and get it into
shape for final presentation to the legis-
lature. It has been advertised that the
commission would receive suggestions
and consider objections to the bill in its
present form, and it was expected that
It would do a big business in the Oh
lection line at this session, but the
members We're agreeably disappointed
Not single person appeared before the
commission at its morning session. and
there were only a few suggestions in the
mails.
It has been supposed that the pro-
posed bill would be pretty thoroughly
dissected by people who are interested
IN the subject of assessment and taxa
ton. With that end the law providing
for the commission provided that tie
commission, after it had formulated a
revised plant and adopted the first draft
of the bill. should have it printed and
10000 copies distributed pro rata among
the county clerks OF the state to give
the public a chance to study it and see
if the plan was what it wanted in KAN
sas.
Either the proposed bill has met with
almost universal approval or else peo-
pie who had objections to it have not
been sufficiently interested to come n
person or write the commission stating
their objections. There were perhaps a
half dozen letters presented to the COM
mission this morning, but they suggest
ed only changes in the wording Of GER
tain sections or some minor detail, and
the commission spent the morning in
considering these minor suggestions.
If the objections to the bill are no
more radical than those thus far Ire-
sented the commission will be able to
complete its work in a very short time.
The members of the commission are
rJohn Francis of Allen county, c. F.
Biddle of Comanche, Emil Grosser of
Dickinson, F. Dumont Smith of Ed
wards, c. F. Hurrel of Jackson. State
Auditor Cole, Attorney General GODDARD.
and State Treasurer Grimes. All are
here except Mr.. Grcsser, who is on an
extended trip in the northwest through
wyoming, Utah and Oregon.

NEED TO Be FIXED
Kansas Judicial Districts Are
Not Satisfactory.
Some of Them Too Small, Others
Too Large.
NOT ENOUGH TO DO.
AtchisOn Judge Has an Easy
Time Of 1t.
Harvey County Would be Conn
bined With SedgWick.

It is not at all improbable that the
next legislature may be called upon to
make some changes in the judicial dis
tricts of the state. The question of a
new congressional apportionment is
bound to come up. and while they are
about it the members of the legislature
Will be likely to make some changes in
judicial districts also.
There are now six counties. each or
which forms a judicial district by it
self. Those who are acquainted with
the amount Of business in each district
say that three of these ought to be
combined with other Counties the work
doubled uD and the expense lessened.
The three counties which have enough
business to keep a court busy without
any business from other counties are
Wyandotte, Shawnee and Cherokee. 1t
is claimed that these have business
enough to justify a court by themselves
The other three counties which now con-
stitute a single district each are Leav-
enwOrth, Atchison and Sedgwick. 1t is
claimed that IeaVenWOrth and AtchisOn
could be easily handled by a single
judge. LeavenwOrth county was until
a. comparatively short time ago in a
district with Jefferson and Jackson, but
this made the work 4 little heavy and
the district was divided. In Atchison
county. it is alleged, the district judge
does not work enough to keep him busy
a third of the time. and the present
judge is credit man for an AtchisOn
wholesale drug house.
Those who object to the present ap-
portionment say that Harvey county
ought to be combined with Sedgwiclz
At present Harvey is in the same dis
trict as Mcpherson and Reno By TAX
ing it out and putting it with Sedg-
wick Rice county could be included
with Mcpherson and Reno. which in
turn would allow one or two counties
to be taken from Judge Lobdells bic
western district and combined with
Stafford and Barton This would not
reduce the number Of districts but il
would come nearer equalizing the work
There will be a vast amount of fgur-
ing done in order to make a new con-
gressional district which will not inter-
fere with anybody's ambitions. The
new district will probably be whitfield
out around Wichita in some way. bul
Just how is question.

PLUGGED THE HOLE.
How Santa Fe Enginemen Rose to
an Emergency.


BY the use of their wits. the other
day, Engineer John Griffith and Fire
man George Morris, who run on trains
113 and ia between Topeka and Flor
ence, plugged the opening made by the
whistle blowing of engine 112 and saved
a delay of several hours to the train.
They had reached Brclay coming this
way when suddenly under a pressure of
II pounds of steam to the square inch
the whistle let go from its fastenings
and the steam began escaping so rapid
" that within a short time the locomO-
tive would have died"
Instead of allowing this to happen
Engineer Griffith and Fireman Morris
hit upon the plan of putting a wooden
plug in the hole. Securing a block Of
pine from a section man nearby and a
pocket knife from one of the passengers,
they proceeded to carve the wood down
to the proper shape for the opening.
After much difficulty in getting it in
place over the escaping steam it was
found to be still too big for the hole;
a little more whiting Then they
We're unable to make it secure in its
to the proper shape It was clapped over
the place and a blow followed quickl Y
by others sent in it to stay. In the
meantime the bell rope had been de-
tached and it was wound round and
round until the leakage of the steam
was stopped. Then more fire was put in
the engine. the crew returned to the
cab and the train proceeded with a de-
lay of only 25 minutes
1t has been the case usually when
such accidents happened to allow the
locomotive to die" thus requiring a
many cases delays of hours have been
occasiOned, but the ingenuity of the
engineer and fireman in this case saved
the train from being laid out"

The Burrows dinner was attended by
II of the 19 senators who are pledged

There was no effort to transform the
dinner into a conference, but the sena-
tors present gathered ia small groups
for the discussion of the situation. A
poll led to the announcement that one

the senate was present at the dinner;
that IL states were represented, and
that they were as firmly united as they

Ca: Norfolk. Va, and Providence, r. I.
It is the policy Of the company to seek
special markets in the country and not
depend too much on the greater ones,
thus saving much in commissions to
commission men and jobbers. Thus they
are able to pay better prices for butter
fat to the dairy farmers.
The company now has four cream
cars running daily into Topeka, one on
each line of road entering the city. It
has hopes of running regular cream and
milk trains into town at no distant
date. The company has Just sent out
$124, 600 in checks for payment for milk
and cream received in May and will
send out at least 5000, 600 to pay for milk
received in June. They are employing
108 people now in Topeka alone.

Washington, June 19.-Senator Platt
of Connecticut. chairman on Cuban re-
lations. today was an early caller at
the White House where he had confer
ence with the president on the subject
Of the probable fate of the Cuban re-
ciprocity measure in the senate. He
declined to make any statement con-
cerning the presidents views as eX-
pressed to him, but said that, speaking
entirely for himself he would force the
senators who are holding out against
reciprocity to cast their vote either with
or against the party. There is not a
beet sugar state" said the senator.
where, if the question was put before
a Republican convention, reciprocity
would not be endorsed. Where a lot Of
men are setting themselves up in oppo-
sition to their party, they should be
forced to 90 on record by their vote"
