Kansas City, Mo-, June 3.-The rains
have ended and the sun was visible
Monday for the first time in week.
1t is thought the great dangers Of the
food is past.
The waters Of the Kaw river are
steadily declining at the rate Of about
one-half inch an hour. In the Mis-
souri, the high stage of 35 feet is still
maintained. Kansas City soon will re-
sumo usual conditions. This city has
suffered millions of dollars of damage
to property and sustained loss in life
that in all probability never will be
accurately measured.
Two men lost their lives Monday in
the attempt to save others. Joseph l..
keenan, was drowned while endeavor-
ing to rescue some people from the Ad-
ans house in Union avenue, and Ed
ward Brooks lost his life in Liberty
street, where his skiff was overturned
by an eddy while he was endeavoring
to get another man out of a building.
A number of bodies were seen floating
down the stream. but are believed to
be those Of people drowned further
up the Kaw, probably at North To-
peka.

Washington, June 3.-The reply Of
former First Assistant Postmaster
General Perry S. Heath to Tulloch's
charges, made public by Postmaster
General Payne Tuesday, begins with
reference to the statement of q Mrs.
Winans, formerly Of Ohio, who is quot
ed as saying she was carried on the
rolls of the Washington postofiice with
the understanding that she was not to
render service to the government, and
says:
81 never appointed any person to
any position or retained anyone in any
position, at any time, with any sort of
notion or idea that he or she was not
to render full and honest service to the
government for the pay received. The
ntimation that there was an honorary
ROLL upon which persons were placed
for political or personal or other pur-
poses than good service is a pure in
vention. 1t is lie out of whole cloth,
as are most of the imputations of T'ul-
loch If any persons were so appoint
ed or retained, it was through their
own dishonest designs"

SURPRISING TESTIMONY GIVEN

Battle Creek, Mich, June 3.-That
religious fanaticism is responsible for
the fires which have destroyed SO
much property at Battle Creek seems
borne out by the testimony in the in
quest begun Tuesday morning to as
certain the cause Of the death Of the
man burned in the fire which de-
stroyed the stables at the Sanitarium,

upon the case are reticent. This indi

Ellen White, although there is nothing
shown to connect her directly with the
case.
The testimony of ]. L. Stevens was
q surprise, even here where rumors Of
all sorts have been afloat. He swore
that he was around the barn early in
the evening of the fire and emptied a
barrel of shavings into an empty stall.
This, he noticed, was warm, and he
notified the barnmaster of it's condi
ton, but paid no further attention to
the matter, even after the alarm had
been sounded. He was apparently I'M
der the impression that he was called
upon to show the jury that the fire
resulted from spontaneous combus.
ton.
Under cross-examination Stevens
claimed to be inspired and that he had
been told from above of pending
split in the Advent sect. He said he
had read Mrs. Whites prophecies and
believed in them. To Prosecutor
Topper, who asked him il he wound dc
his best to make them come true, he
replied, when finally brought 10 a di
rect answer, that he would do any.
thing except use force. 1t was IN this
connection that he made the statement
that the Review and Herald was doing
ungodly work He also admitted that
he believed the fires to be judgment
from God. With all of his testimony
there was a constant failure Of mem
CRY in details.
Thomas Foster, hostler at the SAM
tarium barn, and Detective Cantwell
both swore positively that Stevens had
made the remark that he desired Mrs.
Whites prophecies carried out, and
shook his fist. Foster is a personal
friend OF Stevens. but says he will not
lie to protect him. Foster said he was
positive in his own mind the barn was
set on fire and had his own idea who
did it. He said Isaac Wormer, team

fore the fire, and he had suspicion

How often those words are on a woman's
lips. They express to the uttermost the
nerve racked condition of the body,
which makes life daily martyrdom.
If this condition had come suddenly it
would have been unbearable. But the
transition was gradual. A little more
strain each day on the nerves. A little
more drain each day of the vitality
Any woman would be glad to be rid of
such condition. Every woman tries
to be rid of it. Thousands of such
women have been cured by DR.. Pierce's
treatment with his "Favorite Prescrip-
ton" when local doctors had entirely
failed to cure.
"Favorite Prescription" contains no

OKLAHOMA SCANDAL
Contractor and Three Commits
sioners Are indicted.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 6. "A
telegram to Secretary Hitchcock from
United States District Attorney Hor-
ace Speed, of Oklahoma, says the Unit
ed States grand jury has found three
indictments against Contractor Stokes
and three county commissioners of
Kiowa county for making false vouch-
ers and false certificates for the pur-
pose of defrauding the government in
connection with the building of bridges.
Stokes is under arrest and his bond
has been fixed at $4,000. The three in
dicted county commissioners, 1t is said,
have fed the country. This action has
been taken at the instance of Secre-
tary Hitchcock as the result of an in
vestigation instituted by him several
months ago, which revealed the fact
that gross frauds had been practiced
in Oklahoma in connection with con-
tracts for bridges, roads and buildings,
in the three counties opened for settle
ment three years ago. Secretary
Hitchcock held up all bills until he
could have an investigation made and
the present indictments are the result
Other arrests are expected to follow.

MONEY IS WASTED
Labor Leaders Almost Fight in
Discussing Finances.

CHICAGO, Sept 6.-Following the
direct charge that money thus far coll
iected by assessment from the various
labor unions of Chicago had been vast
ed and consumed in salaries, the Chi
cago Federation of Labor today abol-
ished its defense fund committee after
a stormy session, during which lies
were passed, discriminating charges
were made and fisticuffs were narrowly
averted.
James Bowman, formerly president
of the federation, and III. Fitzpatrick,
organizer, said that the proceedings of
the meeting and the events that led up
to them were disgrace to union labor
in the United States. Charges of dis
honesty were openly made against sew
eral prominent labor leaders and rec
concentrations were made that these
men be suspended.
After a stormy session, the fedora
ton decided to adopt a compromise
plan and to appoint a a:committee to in
vestigate the charges against the men
mentioned.
