In the forthcoming volume of APP
pleton's Annual Encyclopedia will APP
pear a complete list in tabulated form
of all such benefactions amounting to
$1,000 or more. DR.. Rossiter johnson,

for the use of advance proofs, said
that no pains had been spared to
make the list absolutely accurate and
comprehensive. 1t excludes all ordi-
nary UNCONVENTIONAL contributions
for educational and benevolent pur-
poses, all state and municipal appro-
priatiOns to public and sectarian in
situations and the grants of congress
for various measures of relief And
yet, to reprint the merest summary
of each of these donations, would oc-
cupy about ten columns of space.

Havemeyer in presenting his annual
report said. TT would seem that with
an OVERLOOKING federal treasury there
had disappeared any reason for con-
tinuing the existing high tariff upon
raw sugar. 1t constitutes a charge
upon the consumption of nearly two
cents a pound. This represents on an
nual consumption of 1850, 900 tons, $685.
O00, 900 a year. OF this. however, only
1850, 900 tons are imported; yielding
customs revenues of $49,000,000. The
balance, $50. 100000 goes into the pock-
cts of the planters. A removal of this
duty on raw sugar would result in a
saving to the consumer of $4,000. Oo0."

Boss Busters League Meeting Was
Not Success.

The boss busters were in Topeka for
a meeting Wednesday afternoon, but A
w. Smith was the only outsider who
could be found and he has an incipient
boom for governor, supported by the
boss busters machine.
Even John Seaton, the Atchison vet
eran, was not present. The man who
suggested that the league is a victim of
senile decay was consequently rather
numerous among the politicians.
No action will be taken on the gov
ernorship until the next meeting, which
will be held the evening before Kansas
Day. At that time there will be full
attendance of the league, probably in
Guiding Senator Burton.
Then, too, by Kansas Day the po-
1itical situation may have somewhat
changed. Perhaps w. J. Bailey will
have gotten into the race, and if so it is
not at all improbable that Capt John
Seaton will also launch a BOOM in or
der to weaken Bailey's influence in the
First district And if Captain Seaton
should go into the fight he might want
the boss busters behind him, inasmuch
as he is a buster in high standing.

Fresh Ones Command 80 Cents

Chicago. Jan. 9.-Continued heavy
buying of eggs and consequent high
prices on the produce exchange gave
rise today to the belief that the egg
market is being cornered. South Water
street merchants said the local packing
over the local market and were press
ing prices up. Today fresh eggs were
commanding 30 cents. Aside from n
large reduction of stocks in storage for
local consumption, the December cold
snap which stopped hens from laying
and cut off the country offerings had
seemingly abetted the packers in their
manipulations.
