MEXICO GETS TWO MURDERERs

Washington. June 4.-Warrants were
issued at the state department today to
the Mexican government for the extra
dition of Leslie r. Hurburt alias T. G.
Richardson, and Willis Meredith. alias
Mason, who are wanted at Chihuahua.
Mexico. on a charge of murder. Both
are held at Pecos, Texas.
According to the informa ton received
here, Hurburt and Meredith are con-
nected with one of the most daring of
insurance crimes, and their apprehen-
sion is said to be due to the unreient-
ing efforts of the New York Life In
surance Co. to have them punished.
Hurburt was the agent of that COM
pany at Chihuahua, and while there be-
came acquainted with DR.. Harle. who
it is charged, entered into a conspiracy
to have a native insured without his
knowledge for large sum, made paya-
BILE TO Meredith in case the insured man
should die. Then, it is claimed, the ma
tive was slowly poisoned.

From Manhattan. Abilene, Salina,
Florence, Lincoln Center and Hutchin-
son come reports that the water has
about spent its force and that the
towns are slowly recovering.

as he had clear track according to his
orders, he rushed ahead No. whis-

CANADIAN PRESS DIVIDED.

Montreal, June 4.-The Montreal
Star today. commenting on Mr.. Cham
berlain's speech in the British house of
commons, says that the debate shows
that the colonial secretary is in perfect
accord with his colleagues upon the
question of preferential trade within
the empire. The Star argues that even
if there were no colonies in existence
the people of the United Kingdom
would soon have to consider the ques-
tion of modifying their extreme views
upon the subject of free trade.
The Montreal Witness, independent.
liberal, discussing Mr.. Chamberlain's S
preferential suggestion, argues that
whether the tax on bread will benefit
the colonies Or the landed classes. who
have always wanted it, remains to be
seen. 1t characteriZes the suggestion
that the wOrkingmen will get more
than the additional cost of food in old
age pensions and other social reforms
as absurd and does not consider it pos
sible that the people of Great Britain
will ever consent to change.

DrisColl of the police department. the
hack Inspector of this city, nearly
broke up the funeral of Patrick Joyce
by riding in a non-union cab today.
When Driscoll arrived at the house in
non-union hack he was requested by
the union men to use their carriages as
it was a union funeral.
Driscoll refused, saying that he
should ride in the hack he hired. The
family then appealed to the hack in
spector to concede to the union men.
but he rode to the church in the nom
union carriage. The union drivers re-
fused to drive in line to the cemetery
with Driscoll and the mourners finally
persuaded him to go to the grave by
another route. Three times the process
sion was stopped on the way to the
cemetery and the line delayed an

There Was Locking Arms
Instead of Horns
UNDER HANNA'S CONTROL
The Ohio Convention Named Ticket
nade by Cox, Foraker's Ene-
my but II Endorsed Presi-
dent Roosevelt.

Columbus, O., June 4.-The republi-
can state convention nominated a state
ticket and adjourned today. 1t seemed
to be the policy to have harmony on
the ticket as we'll as in the declaration
of principles. While all conceded that
it was "Hannas year." yet he would
not use his influence except for the
head of the ticket in naming his neigh
Dor, Myron T. Herrick, for governor.
The senator's great friend, George B.
Cox of Cincinnati, certainly named
Warren NJ. Harding for lieutenant gov
ernor and Wade Hampton Ellis for at
torney general, as well as being the
most potential factor in nominating A.
N. Summers for supreme judge. Audi
tor Guilbert and others, especially w.
s. McKinnon for treasurer. were
strongly endorsed.
While Senator Foraker expressed his
qualification over the ticket generally,
he was especially gratified over the
unanimous adoption of a resolution
which endorsed President Roosevelt s
nomination as we'll as his administra-
tion. 1t has been anticipated that Sen
ators Hanna and Foraker would lock
horns over the endorsement of Roose-
velt's candidacy, but instead they have
locked arms and are now leading the
Ohio republicans in this campaign more
harmoniously than ever.
The ticket is:
GovernCr-Myron T. Herrick.
Lieutenant governor - Warren G..
Harding.
Auditor-W. D. Guilbert.
Treasurer-W. S. McKinnon.
Attorney general-Wade H. Ellis.
Judge of the supreme court-A. N.

LESSENED DISASTER
The Flood Was Bad Enough
at Kansas City
But the Loss Of Life and Property
Was Much Less Than the
Earlier Estimate of II.

Kansas City, Mo, June 4.-With the
suming it's normal condition. The wa
ter works are pumping slackwater
from the Kansas river, not fit to drink,
and the danger from fire is over. Elec-
trio street car lines are in operation.
The telephone and telegraph connection
will be esta blished between the two
Kansas Citys tomorrow; lines are be-
ing stretched across the ruins of the
JaUes street bridge. Gangs of railroad
repairers follow close upon the heels of
the retreating floods, and the streets
are being cleared of mud where they
were covered and brought to grade
where they were washed out.
At the stock yards $500 hogs and 800
cattle were drowned. A force of men
began today to remove the carcasses.
In the wholesale and packing house
districts of the west bottoms the scene
is even more depressing than yesterday.
Additional buildings have fallen and
the lowering of the flood has exposed
heaps of ruins. In some places men
with poles are loosening heaps of
wreckage to let it drift away. Reports
that the Burlington bridge approaches
are washed away are untrue.
In the masses of driftwOod on the
Clay county side of the bridge not one
body has been found by the men who
are hauling the timberS ashore, nor
have they seen any bodies. At this
place many bodies were said to be col
lected, and their non-existence makes
il likely that the total list of dead will
not go much over eight. the number
now authenticated. Most of the miss
ing persons have been heard from.
Estimates of the damage done by the
floods are being reduced. At first they
ranged from $1O.OOO,OOO up. but now
they are all much below that sum. The
greatest loss was of the sixteen bridges
across the Kansas river. all substantial
structures. The packing house plants
did not suffer severely.
At Armour's the fires were lighted
late this afternoon. The railroads be-
gan to open up cars today. but the
greater part of the freight cars are still
partially covered.
Small storekeepers in the flooded dis
trict are ruined. The losses on build
ings are distributed among thousands
of owners.
The 10000 people made destitute in
Kansas City, Kas.. by the flood, are
being well cared for.

1t is evident that the Venezuelan gov

Vessels for the ports where custom
