CONCEDE NOTHING
Bailey Men Name Secretary of State
Committee.

Topeka, June 1.-THE organization
of the Republican state committee to-
night was very tame affair. The
only names presented for officers of
the committee we're Morton Albaugh
for chairman, and F. G. Raney, of
Fort Scott, for secretary, and they we're
unanimously elected. No test of
strength was made in the committee
meeting. The fight over the selection
of secretary came up before meet
ing of the candidates, and by a vote
eight TO six they recommended the
election of Raney for secretary.
The Burton Curtis supporters tried
a harmony talk before the candidates
meeting, but it failed. Cy Anderson,
of Rawlins, was chosen as the Burton
candidate for secretary. His friends
asked that he be recommended for Sec
retary in order that all might be re-
presented in the organization. Asso-
ciate Justice j. G. Pollock spoke for
Bailey. He said that the candidates
should recommend .man for secre-
tary who would be in harmony with
the chairman, and that Raney would
fit the place better than Anderson.
The following candidates voted to
recommend Raney to the committee:
Bailey, Wells, Pollock, Cunningham,
Greene, Dayhoff, Luling and Mason.
The following we're for Anderson:
Kelly, Ellis, Burrow, Hanna, Cole
man and Congressman Scott, whose
proxy was held by Kelly.
The recommendation OF Raney was
then made unanimous. The recon-
men dation Of the candidates was car
ried to the committee by w. Y. Nor
gan, DR.. Jones, of Trego, and Cyrus
Leland. The election of the candi- ]
dates by the committee was unanim-
Gus. Albaugh thanked the committee
for the honor and impressed upon the
members the necessity for strong Or
ganization in each county.

RUMOR OF "a PLOT
King Edward the Intended Victim, IL
is Said

London, June ia sensational
story is current in London tonight of
the discovery of plot to assassinate
King Edward. This story has created
considerable discussion in newspaper
and other circles, but it is lacking in
anything like official confirmation
According to the current report, King
Edwards sudden illness at Aldershot
was not due to a cold, but was merely
an excuse for Withdrawing his ma iesty
from public functions, owing to the
discovery d by Scotland Yard of a
plot against his life. The princi-
pals in this plot have not yet been
arrested.
1t Is cited in confirmation of this
story that King Edwards recovery,
when he was ensconsed at Windsor
castle, was as complete and speedy as
his attack had been sudden.
On the other hand, it must be point
ed out that, If his msjesty's illness was
merely diplomatic, tie officials GER
tainly took great deal of trouble in
keeping up the fiction. Sir Francis
Laking, physician-in-o ordinary to the
king, was summoned by telegraph TO
Aldershot; his prescriptions we're hur-
riedly filed, and everything about
the kings apartments indicated the
genuine nature of his illness. Furth-
ermore, King Edwards journey from
Aldershot to Windsor in his motor
car and his subsequent drive today In
Windsor park do not seem to indicate
any fear of a further attack upon his
person.

KEEP ITS OWN CoNvICTS
Kansas Penitentiary Can No Longer
Care for Oklahoma's

Topeka, Kansas, June 17.-Gov-
ernor Stanley and Warden Jewett
have come to the conclusion that the
contract of the state of Kansas with
the territory of Oklahoma for the care
and custody of the convicts of the ter
ritory is Of no profit to the state, even
If legal, and the governor will notify
Governor Ferguson that Oklahoma
must make some arrangements. 1. N.
Terrell, lawyer of Oklahoma, con-
fined in the prison for murder, has
applied to the supreme court OF Kan
sas for his liberty on the ground that
the authorities OF the state have no
right to hold him for a crime commit
ted outside of its border. This suit
caused Warden Jewett to look up the
contract with the territory and he
finds that the state barely gets the
cost of maintenance for its trouble,
nothing for the responsibility and
nothing for interest on the plant
The contract was made when the ter
rltory was originally organized and
when it could not afford to pay much
for the service rendered. The terri
tory is now rich and keeps about 300
convicts in the Kansas prison.
Guthrie, Ok, June 17.-Governor
Ferguson received letter from Gov
ernor Stanley OF Kansas, requesting
that the attorney general or some
authorized lawyer be present July q
to represent Oklahoma before the su-
preme court Of Kansas in trial to test
the validity Of Kansas Keeping Okla
homa prisoners. The attorney gen.
eral, j. G. Roberts, will assist the
attorney general of Kansas in the de-
Tense of the j. N. Terril habeas cor
pus case, involving the prisoner keep
contract.

"G0D DECIDED HE SAID
The Beers Cheered When DeWet Came
in to Surrender.

London, June 16.-The total of
Beers who have already surrendered
is l6, 500. The appearance of General
DeWet at the camp at Windburg was
the signal for cheers. When he ar
rived at camp, General DeWet was at
once surrounded by thousands of
Boer men, women and children, who
struggled and clamored to shake the
hand of their hero. General DeWet
mounted table and spoke. He
warmly applauded the staupch sup
port that the women had given the
burghers during the war which, he
said, had greatly encouraged the men
in the field. Continuing, he recon-
mended his hearers to be loyal to the
new government, and said:
perhaps it is hard for you to hear
this from my mouth, but God has de-
cided thus. l fought until there was
no more hope of upholding our cause,
and however, it may be, the time has
now come to lay down our arms. AS
Christians, God now demands that we
be faithful to our new government.
Let us submit to His decision"
Neither General DeWet nor Mr..
Steyn, ex.president of the old Grange
Free State, was wounded in the war
General DeWet had not seen his wife
for two years.

HARRISON BEATEN
Hopkins Laid Chicago's Mayor Out at

Springfield, H., June 1.-THE fol-

Democratic convention this afternoon.

DR.. julia Holmes Smith, of Chicago;
j. a. White, of Urbana, and S. S.
Paxton, of Monmouth.
John p. Hopkins was reelected
chairman of the state central COM
mittee, after a bitter contest with
Carter H. Harrison of Chicago.
The election of Chairman Hopkins
produced the only fight in the conven-
tion, but it was stirring enough to
make up for the tameness that char
acterized the other proceeding of the
convention. The day was fulh of
clashes between Hopkins and Harri-
son. The two men indulged in an
acrimonious quarrel in the st. Mich
olas hotel during the morning, in
which Hopkins bitterly resented criti-
cisms made by Harrison Of the cam
paign methods attributed to Hopkins
by Harrison.
Later Harrison and his friends sue
ceeded in beating Hopkins in the dis
trict caucus for state committeeman
and elected Thomas j. McNally, of
Chicago, in his stead. Hopkins ne
chance to be re elected chairman was
in the caucus Of the general committee
appointed to select the chairman, and
the Harrison forces were jubilant,
claiming Hopkins was beaten beyond
all redemption. He himself was con.
fdent of the outcome, however, and
his confidence was justified, when the
committee by majority of 3, recon-
mended his selection-the vote being
Hopkins, 13; Harrison 10.
A minority report favoring the
election OF Harrison was made and
the fight carried to the floor OF the
convention.
The struggle produced wild excite
ment. Impassioned speeches we're
made in favor of both representa-
and every orator was received with
applause and tumultuous boots. The
delegates at times were frantic and
criticisms highly personal were fre-
quently exchanged.

Springfield, ILL.,, June 16-Although
less than one-half of the delegates and
a minority of the party leaders have
arrived, to take part in the Democrat.
ic state convention tomorrow, every
indication points toward one of the
most conservative Democratic con.
ventions held in this state in recent
years. Many delegates are here who
have not attended state gathering
of their party in eight to ten years,
and there is among them u strong
disposition to steer wide of sensation
alism, It is practically certain that
there will be nothing in the platform
favoring either w. } Bryan or free
silver. Among the men opposed to
declarations on these points are some
who have been strong partisans of the

Palma Says That it Would not Solve

Palma, of Cuba, has indicated to
President Roosevelt his conviction
that the rebate proposition to Cuba
would be very Objectionable in itself,
and would be very expensive and al
most impossible to carry out in the
distribution.
1t is not stated how this proposition
was communicated to President Roose-
welt, but 10 is assumed that Secret ar
Hay was the medium, ha wing been
acquainted by Senor Quesada, the
Cuban minister, of President Palma s
opinion on this subject.
Should it become apparent that there
is no possibility of an agreement be-
tween the senate and house upon the
pending recipr ocity propositions, then
the president probably will endeavor
to simplify the problem by dropping
the house out of the calculations and
negotiating a treaty directly with
President Palma. II is true such a
treaty would require the approval of
two-thirds of the senate. but it is be-
lieved that, under the changed condi-
tions, this would not be impossible of
attainment. At any rate, the situation
would be clarified by the omission of
the house from the calculation and
hence it is that the project is being
