ALLEN EXPLAINS.
SAYS Board of Charities Has
Favored Kansas in Purchases.

$50 far as 1 know the state board of
charities has never made but two Pur-
chases outside of the state" said H. j.
Allen chairman of the board, in speaking
of the recent action of the Topeka Com
mercial club censuring the board for MAX
ing such purchases contrary to the direc-
lions of resolution passed by the legis-
lature.
I'm those two instances" Mr.. Allen con-
tinued, the board was more than Just1hed
in taking the action it did, and besides 1t
was in accordance with the directions of
the resolution referred, which directed US
to purchase supplies for the state institu-
lions within the state, all things being
equal. in other words, to give Kansas bust
ness men the advantage when their bids
are as good as others.
lone instance when we went outside the
state was when we had new building to
furnish with furniture at the Osawatomie
asylum. 1t was a big bill and we went
direct to the furniture factories for prices
and finally bought the bill from Aber-
nathy at Kansas City. We found we could
save the state a lot of money by doing
that and whether or not it was within the
state never occurred to us. In fact, come
to think of it, I am not sure but what
Abernathy's Kansas City factory is on the
Kansas side after ALL
THE other instance was when we had
some lumber to buy. We had been buying
of Kansas firm but suspected that we
were paying too big a price. We made an
investigation and found we could get a
better grade of the same kind of lumber
from a Kansas City firm for IS less
thousand. and I think we were justified in
saving that amount for the state.
II have been trying to find out who has
been making this complaint continued
Mr. Allen. THE Topeka merchants gen
orally get the big end of all contracts VIC
let and they nearly always express them
selves as well pleased over the way the
letting is done. Ask the Parkhurst Davis
company about it, Mills, or the Sey-
mour company, or nearly any firm which
makes bids here. We buy things which
must come from out of the state. but We
always buy of Kansas business men. Take
shoes. for instance. We have to buy great
quantities of shoes, but the contract is
always given to some Kansas firm who
acts as agent for an outside factory and
makes a profit on the business"

New ork Stocs.

Wall Street. New York, Oct 14-STOCKS
The announcement of the coal operators
that they would submit the question at is

a buoyant stock market. Enormous blocks
Of the various stocks were bought at the
opening, causing general advances of
point or two and ranging up 10 about 3
points in a few instances The coalers as
group. did not display any relatively
more strength than other stocks though
the buying in them was of larger proper
tons than the remainder of the list. The
London market showed pronounced
strength on buying orders from this side
and foreign houses bought various inter-

SPENCER IS AFRAID.
City Attorney Thinks Water
works Proposition Is Weak.

City Attorney Spencer thinks that the
unexpected difficulty in regard to draw
ing up the petitions for the waterworks
bond election may have q tendency to
defeat TIE bonds.
IF the city could say" said Mr.. Spen-
Ger this morning, that here we have an
offer Of the water company to take $780,
eco for the plant, it would be a clear
and definite proposition
But the situation is just this; Presi-
dent Street says positively that the first
mortgage bonds, amounting to $270,000
must be assumed by the city. The
bcndholders will not give them up.
These bonds draw 5 per cent. l don't
know when they expire, but 1 under
stand that they are in two lots, one of
S240 GOO and one of $4,000 The city ex-
pected to sell its $62O,0G0 in bonds for
4 per cent, but if we have to make our
bends only s350,000 in amount. and sec
end mortgage bonds at that. it may
make il difficult to dispose OF them at
per cent. We would besides that have
that extra 1 per cent to pay on the old
first mortgage bonds. which would
amount TO s2,7o0 a year for probably
ten or fifteen years.
"AH these conditions are likely to in
fiuence the voter to vote against the
bonds. He will think that he is paying
more than he agreed to pay
Il am now waiting for more detailed
