Coal Famine in Topeka Grows
More Serious.
Gas Company Short and May
Have to Shut Down.
THE MILLS RUN SHORT.
Inter Ocean Has Enough to Last
Till Tomorrow.
Southwestern Has Coal but Not
Enough Teams.

The fuel situation in Topeka is even
more alarming than Saturday. Not a
coal company in Topeka is able today to
fill orders.
The Excelsior Coke < Gas company
can not secure enough coal from the US
ual sources to make izas and have inn
portuned many dealers for coal without
success. Should the company be unable
to secure coal those VINO use gas will
find themselves in darkness.
All the smaller dealers lave nothing
but empty bins to show and many of
the larger coal yards are practically
without coal.
The fuel companies which have some
coal on hand are willing 10 divide it
among their customers in small lots as
long as it lasts but thew are unable to
secure teams to deliver it. All the deal
ers who have coal at all are confronted
with the scarcity of teams.
The Southwestern Fuel company has
sufficient amount of coal on hand 10
supply all small orders hut can not on
account of the lack of teams. They
have 20 teams at work ana say that at
least 100 more teams could be used.
Another dealer had one car of coal
on hand this morning. It was Burlin-
game which he ordered Friday and
paid the advanced price of $500 for
at the mines Wnen lnS uSudt S6iilAlS
price in Topeka is S3.25. He supplied
a few of his regular customers this
morning with small lots
/ The Topeka Coal company, which has
the contract to supply the city schools,
has 200 tons on hand for that purpose
4 This coal is barely enough to supply
the schools during the present month
The same company had a small
amount of coal on hand this morning
for the regular trade but could not get
teams to make deliveries and at nine
o'clock refused to even consider fur
+ ther orders. The manager has guard
watching the coal that is to be used by
the schools
The Webster-Tulloch Coal company
4 reported this morning that they were
entirely out of coal and could make nc
4 promises as to when they would have
a supply
a F. Wessen did not have a pound Of
coal this morning and could give nc
premise of a supply soon
The mills and factories which usually
burn the cheap grade of slack coal now
have to take the more expensive lump
coal or anything else they can get.
The Inter-Ocean mills were forced tc
shut down for few hours twice last
week, and now have but coal enough tc
last until tomorrow night.
The Topeka railway company has q
small supply of coal on hand and is un-
able to get any large amount.
The Wolff Packing company is short
I of coal and has only enough to last a
short time
The coal shipped from the state peni-
Tertiary at Lansing to the state institu-
tons is continually being appropriated
1 by the railroads.
The Gas company is two weeks be-
+ hind in orders for coke, and unable 10
secure teams to deliver what they have
/ at ossoe.
| Day by day the coal famine in the city
| is becoming more alarming. and a severe
cold wave would mean much sufferin 9
and that many mills and factories would
have to shut down for lack of fuel.

new SANTA FE LINE?
Surveyors Said to Be Working
Toward Trinidad, Colo.

1t is reported from Dodge City that
party of Santa F'e surveyors is working
in that vicinity, supposedly running
line from Dodge City to Trinidad, Colo.
The object of such line would be to
shorten the distance from Chicago to
the coast, and at the same time to avoid
some of the heavy grades encountered
on the line from La Junta to Trinidad.
The surveying party is now reported to
be in Beaver county, Okla, but what
they are doing there is somewhat of a
mystery if the destination of the survey
is really Trinidad. To strike Oklahoma
would take the line out of the most di-
rect route. There is reason to believe
that if a new line is being planned, it
will not be to Trinidad, but to some
other objective point which IS being con-
cealed.
When some of the chief officials of the
Santa F'e operating department located
in Topeka were asked about this rumor
they professed ignorance that any sur
vey is being made.
Perhaps it is the Santa Fe that is
making the surveys said one Of the
officials. They are said to be planning
a line out there somewhere"
Another stated that if any new line is
being surveyed, the work is all under
the charge of Chief Engineer Dun and
President Ripley nothing having been
said about the plans to Topeka officials.

GOVERNOR BAILEY's ADDRESS
It Is Remarkable for It's Concis,
Argument.


In his inaugural address Governor
Bailey said.
Profoundly grateful to the people of
Kansas for the great honor they have
conferred upon me by electing me their
chief executive for the ensuing two
responsibility that this honor brings:
responsibilities before which man Of
greater experience in public life might
well pause and hesitate. Indeed. 1

'-Forty-two years of Kansas history

"Forty-two years in the building OF

the time came to place Kansas star

MONEY IN SIGHT.
Honolulu's Prosperity Shown in Uncon.
trovertible Form.

When a community is hard up, the
luXuries disappear first, including
amusements. There is perhaps no surer
index of the general prosperity of a
community than a theater. Especially
is this the case when a stock company
is playing a repertoire extending over
several weeks. If they continue play
ing to crowded houses, two facts are
apparent. One that the company is a
good one and the other that the gen.
eral public have got money to spend on
other things than bare necessaries.
The Elleford company at the Or
pheum, with their consistently good
performances. versatile company and
selected repertoire have shown the
temperature of prosperity to be stand
ing at a satisfactory figure in Homo
lulu's financial barometer. The influx
of W. ]. Elleford and Jessie Norton at
this moment will give the already popu-
lar combination another squirt, es-
specially as some very strong blls are
yet to be presented. Lost in New
York" is one of the best pieces of the
repertoire, being one of those melo-
dramas of universal interest where the
scenes alternately thrill or provoke
laughter and all works tremendously to
a profitable ending. Jessie Norton re-
appears tonight in this piece after an
absence of two years and will doubtless
be greeted enthusiastically by the
many in town who have enjoyed her
vigorous acting and clever singing.

BUILDERS AND TRADERS.
Meeting Sonight Will Consider the First
Years Work.

The Board of Directors of the Builders
and Traders Exchange. will meet to-
night for the transaction of regular
monthly business. This being the first
meeting of the Board since the close of
the first fiscal of the Exchange there
will be considerable business of i'm
portance brought up.
The exchange has come to be recog-
nized as one of the factors in the up
building of Honolulu, and the COM
mittees of the organization have been
laying broad plans for the coming year,
which will come for action tonight, be-
fore the board
The Exchange succeeded curing the
regular session of the Legislature, in
getting a bill passed and signed re-
curing that all labor on public WORKS
should be performed If possible by citi-
Zens of the United States, or those ELI
gible to become citizens, and fixing
eight hours as a legal day for such
work. The members of the Exchange
are quite elated over the fact that the
bill passed word for word as it was
drawn by their legislative committee,
except, for an amendment introduced in
the Senate, which amendment, the At
torney General in a recent opinion to
the legislature has declared Illegal, but
ment would not affect the validity of
/ the act as originally drawn by the Ex-
/ change.
! The Exchange feels that it's first step
having been successful, it is now in
position to consider what shall be the
/ next point of advancement.
The organization has grown from a
comparatively inconsequential body OF
mill men and contractors called to-
gether by the carpenters strike of Sep
TENDER 1900, into an organization which
now embraces nearly every important
general and sub-contractor. lumber
| hardware, paint etc, supply house OF
! the city.
The board hopes Monday night with
the support of the exchange, which will
hold its regular monthly meeting or
/ the 21st to lay plans which will bring
in all the rest of the desirable eligibles
before the current fiscal years ends.
