MAN IN THE BARREL.
Police Are Looking for Political Plot
of EoreiQners

New York April 1e.-Vito Laduca, who
was supposed to have been the proprietor
of the butcher shop in Stanton street,
where nine arrests were made last night
in connection with the murder of the
man found in a barrel in East Eleventh
street last Tuesday morning, surrendered
himself at police headquarters today, and
was held as a witness. Niko LatestroF 70
years old. who lives with Laduca, also
went to police headquarters, and was
detained for the same purpose.
At the place in Elizabeth street kept
by Giuseppe Morello, who was one Of
the men arrested last night, the police
have locked the doors and placed heavy
padlocks on them. Through the glass in
the windows can be seen several large
barrels that bear a resemblance to the
barrel in which the murdered man was
found The barrel in Eleventh street had
two wooden hoops and q wire hoop at
both top and bottom. The barrels in the
store appear as if they had nothing but
wire hoops.
In the store was found quantity OF
sawdust and burlap and Detective Pc

SEX LEFT TO BOARD.
Possible to Re-engage Teacher Who
Gave Satisfaction.

Topeka, Kan, April 16.-One of the new
school laws passed by the last legisla-
ture takes a question which has been a
fruitful source of dijculty out of the
hands of the annual school meeting. That
is the sex of the teacher who shall be
employed. This is now left with the dis
trict board While a binding contract
cannot be made until after the school
meeting, this provision makes it possible
for a board to re-engage a teacher who
has done satisfactory work, at the end of
the school year. The compensation of the
teacher and the length of the term are
still left with the annual meeting.
Another change has also been made
in the date of the annual meeting, which
has already been subjected to numerous
shifts. Here are the dates since 1861:
Last Saturday in September, last Thurs
day in June, last Saturday in July, Sec
ond Thursday in August. last Thursday
in June, last Thursday in July. and fin
ally, third Thursday in June.

OFFICERS ABE
STAYING HOAE
State Officers Hopes to Save
Small Sum of Salary.
TOPEKA is TOO COSTLY
Nobody Had Anything Left
After Paying Bills.

Topeka Kan, April 16.-For several
years it has been customary for Kansas
state officers to move their families to To-
peka and spend their salaries for high liy-
ing Few state officers in two decades
have saved penny out Of their pay. The
members of the present administration
have started one With the exception o.
Governor Bailey, who has no family-pot
now-and Treasurer Kelly, who has been
living here for five years, the new state
officers are leaving their families at home,
and they are staying at home with them
about half the time.
The new state officers will save some
money. By keeping their families at
home they not only are saved the enor-
nous expense of moving two ways, and
the additional expense of living, but are
able to keep an eye on their private bust
ness All the state officers with the ex-
ceptions noted, go home on Saturday and
come back Wednesday or Thursday. This
gives them sufficient time at home to
keep their private business well in hand.
Their expense while in Topeka is kept
down to the minimum. Being without
their families, they have no social obliga-
tons, and the saving in that line alone
is considerable.
Governor Bailey is the rich man of the
administration, and doesn't care for ex-
pense. But as everything comes easy to
the rich. Bailey has little expense The
state furnishes him house and gives him
81 800 a year to run it. The governor has
10 entertain more or less, but with free
house and an appropriation for subsist-
ence he probably will get through the
year with as small an outlay for personal
expenses as he would on his Baileyville

WARDEN CUTS PRICE.
Irvine of Lansing Will be Sold at Nine
and One-half Cents.

Topeka. Kan, April 16.-Warden Z. Is.
Jewett today announced the rates at
which the penitentiary binding twire
would be sold this year. The price will be
eI2 cents per pound f. o. b. Lansing on lots
of 5000 pounds or over and 10 cents per
pound Oh smaller orders The trust r-ice
is 10 cents on car load lots or 10la cents
on smaller quantities, on Chicago basis
The difference allowed by the state plant
on car load lot orders, together with the
necessary allowance for freight charges,
will enable the dealer to make fair mar
gin of profit and still sell to the farmer
as cheaply as he can buy direct from the
plant in small quantities. If a number of
farmers club together they can, however.
by buying a sufficient quantity, save the
dealers profit.
Mr.. Jewett will endeavor to distribute
the product of the plant over the wheat
belt as equally as possible, and to this end
will, if necessary, restrict the amount sold
to each dealer. This will also prevent any
effort to corner the supply. A great many
orders are already coming in.

apolis if he can help it. The belief that
he had a, card in reserve to be played
when he thought the proper time had
come has been realized.
Ex-Mayor Ames of Minneapolis has be-

vent his being brought back by. Sheriff
j. w. Dreger, who is now on his way to
Hancock. N. H., after him.
The former mayor did not wait for
Sheriff Dreger's arrival. He commenced
the proceedings and secured the fixing Of
a date for the hearing. That date is
March IL, six days beyond the date set
for the surrender Of the doctor to Mime
sofa authorities by those of New Hamp-
shire. Sheriff Dreger will, therefore, have
little to do upon his arrival in Hancock
tomorrow but to complete arrangements
for the proper legal representation of Min
nesota at the hearing and to- keep his
eyes on the mayor to prevent his fitting
in a direction not so dangerous to his
health as he regards westward travel
The information above was conveyed to
Deputy Sheriff Arthur l.. Jones to-day

Doane of the county 5in which DR.. Ames
is temporarily residing. The message
