Builders of Kansas Avenue
Structure Inspect It.

e Thatcher. who was formerly q
member of the firm of Keepers &
Thatcher, and who built the MeIan
arch bridge over the Kav1 river here, is
in Topeka today. He came here solely
for the purpose of making an investIga-
ton as to the condition of the bridge.
He visited the structure Tuesday after
noon and this morning and after max
ing Careful investigation pFOnouneeS
the structure as substantial and dura-
Bile and in as good condition now as it
was the day It was CON pleted- 1T Is
better now than it was when it was
completed he said, because it has
been tried, tested and found to be all
right.
THE bridge may appear to be IN bad
condition., he said. but this is an in
stance when appearances don't count
1t Is true a few cracks appear in the
structure, but they VIII not affect the
durability Of the bridge. It is what is
called spider-webbing All OF the
bridges which we have made and which
have been surfaced with master in the
manner this bridge was and IN which all
the bridges were finished at that time
show this spider webbing. Tnvestiga-
ton will show anyone that this will
never affect the durability of the bridge
We are surfacing the bridges in an
other manner nowadays and these mark
ings never show up on them
Il find that the arches and the abut-
condition. They win stand for thous-
and years. The cracks in the standards
which hold the hand rails viii have no
effect on the bridge and may be repair
ed. The roadbed appears uneven, but
that was because the last of the cement
was put in so late in the fall that the
frost got to it. This does not affect the
arches and may be repaired, and the
tagging Of the pavement of the walks
on either side may be easily repaired .
What would you estimate that the
cost of repairs would be2'' was asked
Five hundred dollars he said, would
pay the cost Of making an the repairs
on the bridge, pay for giving It new
surface ana would pay for washing the
rust stains Off 1t would then have the
appearance Of a new bridge"
Mr.. Thatcher and MIR. Keepers are not
now partners. The partnership was dis
solved year or two ago. Mr.. Thatch-
er's headquarters are in New York city
Tor which place he leaves today.
MI Thatcher denies that his visit here
has anything to do with the suit against
the county commissioners which was
brought to satisfy a claim for expenses
above the contract price Of the bridge.
which is now pending in the United States
circuit court. The amount involved is
about $4,000 and the suit is owned by Mr..
Keeper.

DELAYED TRAINS
Floods and WashOuts Unprece-
denied Near Joliet.

The delays and losses met with by the
railway companies during the recent
washouts have broken all records so
far as certain localities are concerned.
On the eastern division of the Santa Fee
railroad between Joliet and Chicago the
heaviest rain on record fell between 9
0 clock Monday night and 5 o'clock
Tuesday morning. All the roads in that
neighborhood suffered from washouts;
the Burlington, Alton and others.
Between the stations named there
were as many as thirty Washouts on
the Santa Fe. the track being from two
to five feet under water and from one
hundred to five hundred feet of track
gone at the different points. In the
Joliet railroad yards the water stood up
to the bottoms of the cars conceaIing
the trucks. In the Joliet waiting room
Of the station the water was two and
a half feet deep. The line is now in OPP
Grafton and trains which left Chicago

about six o'clock instead of at noon.
1T was the worst flood We ever had
in that part of the country said one
of the Santa Zee officials today. That
is very peculiar country between Chi
cago and Joliet. It lies almost fiat and
water runs both ways from the summit

to be assigned there They are leaving
the whole thing to me. ana when the time
isfactorily.
Owing to the smallness Of the crew
which we employ It will be necessary to
pick out the biggest, most active and
muscular men in the department Every
man must be a crackerJack. Isnats not
are not picked men, for they are. The OBJ
Jeet in the selection Of men FOR the truck
VIII be to get men especially adapted for
that class of work
Asked in regard to the territory the aer-
iaI will serve, Chief Wiimarth said:
The aerial will respond to all alarms
OF fire IN the business portion of the city
from the southern limits TO Gordon street.
1t viii also have special orders to go on
the first alarm to all large buildings OUT
side of the business part Of town. It would,
for instance go to Washburn college, the
hospitals the mills. Bethany college, all
the school houses in the city and big build
ings ell over town. -
It would not be necessary for the big
truck to go to all the little fires These will
be covered by the present lighter truck:
The new aerial truck will probably be
members of the department and who have
had experience. They win be taken from
other pieces of apparatus and their places
filled by substitutes.

the developments which have been

vidua1 and collective prosperity may be
held absolutely in the grasp Of a com

No attempt has been made to justify
or even to explain on any rational basis
the prevailing high prices Of fresh
meats. There is no further pretense that
the few organizations named as defend

not control absolutely the fresh meat

Congressman Chester L Long, of
Medicine Lodge. stopped in Topeka last
night on his way to Washington. Mr..
Long expected to call on Congressman
Curtis but found that he had left for
Washington.
With Mr.. Long came the story that he

senatorship and that they had arrived
at an agreement The agreement is said
to be that Mr. Long and Governor
Stanley viii join forces. Stanley is to

Soon after the senate convened today
a bill providing for the promotion of the
circulation of reading matter among the
blind by transporting such matter

While the meat trust is thus being
prosecuted by the United States and the
state Of New York and its employees tn
the city OF Chicago are on strike, practi-
eaIly the same situation marks the ar
fairs Of the coal trust Thus the two
agencies upon which the bulk Of tha
people Of the United states in their
homes and in their industries rely for
their principal supplies Of food and fuel
occupy the position at the present mo-
ment Of social outlaws.
This result has been made inevitable
by the failure Of the people themselves
and their representatives in office to
protect their interests. There has been
a deliberate and concerted failure on the
part of the public officers OF practically
every state in the Union in which these
organizations have existed to protect
the public rights against invasion by
them. Laws of the greatest variety
have been passed for their direction and
control. but with the exception Of the
proceedings taken in one or two south
ern states not a single effort has been
made by federal or state authority to
enforce the laws thus enacted

SITE FOB PEST HOUSE.
That South of city win Be Turned
Down

It looks now as though the city would
not select the site for its new pest
house until the next council meeting,
June Is. The members of the board of
health are said to be opposed to the
plan of buying 10 acres Of land south Of
town for $1,000, and under the instruc-
tons given at the last council meeting,
the board will have to buy this tract or
nothing.
The tract which is proposed is said to
be poorly located. It has no road lead
ing to it, and the price is about twice as
much as that set on several other Ioca-
lions. The members of the board seem
to think that the best location yet offer
ed is owned by John D. Knox, a 5-acre
tract north Of Auburndale on the banks
of the Kansas river.
George Tincher and s. A. Swendson,
councilmen from the Sixth ward, are
fighting this location hard, because
their constituents demand that they
fight it. AS a matter Of fact, however.
the proposed location is half a mile
from any house, and is the cheapest and
best location so far considered. Its
price is only $500.

CIV BORROWs HONEY.
Secures Over So, 900 Today to Pay
Current Expenses.

The city of Topeka today borrowed
from the Merchants National bank 81
s81.51 for its general Improvement fund,
and 81, 501-59 for its general revenue fund
to pay the bills which came due on the
first of June.
The plan pursued this month IS rather
different from usual. Instead of send
ing the warrants to the bank to be paid,
the bank officials brought the cash to
the city treasurer. and the warrants are
paid at the treasurer's office. and then
turned over to the bank to hold for col
lection. They draw interest.
The financial shortage of the city is
shown by the statement of the city
treasurer on the condition of the funds
at the end Of May. There was at that
time S4,S23.76 in the general revenue
found, and $929.48 in the general i'm
provement fund.
At the council meeting Monday night,
the bills aggregated as follows: From
the general revenue fund, $7.325.37;
