LEADING BAKERS RESUME WORK

S. S. Thompson &, Co.,, Root & Son, and
 George Gowdy Start Baking Again
 With New Men.
 The master bakers have made de- cided forward movement. Becoming tired of waiting for their old hands to come back and becoming more tired at receiving fiat refusal to arbitrate, they have set to work to reopen their plants, by hiring new men. They first gave one more chance to the old hands to come back. None coming they ob- tained new men in New York and else where.
 The firms of S. S. Thompson & Co started baking last night and bread can be had there to-day by those wishing it. There will be no wagons sent out to- day, but in a day or two wagons will be sent out to supply the trade as usual
 Baking has also been resumed by Root & Son. Grand avenue: also by George Gowdy of Grand avenue, and bread can be had to-day at both these places. At the other large shops bak- ing will be started in day or two.
 A lot of new men arrived yesterday and a lot the day before.
 MT. Thompson has had cots and bed ding put in at his bakery for the &C., commodation of his new men.
 The boss bakers who signed the union agreement several weeks ago have not enlarged their plants in any way, and are working their union men night and day, notwithstanding the union de- mands that the men shall work days only. The other boss bakers who have mt signed consider this an injustice to them as the union allows these shops to bake bread in violation of the union requirements and the chief thing that the unions are contesting for. More over none of the union bakers are talk ing any steps to enlarge their plants SC that the union men need work only in the day time.

 The Harvard manager will attempt to prove by the submission of photographs that Schick beat Moulton for second place in the dash.
 Around the Yale campus last night those who know the situation perfectly said that the rules of the association declare that the decision of the judges is final and to a precedent established in similar case few years ago when a Yale man apparently won race but the judges decision was against him and they were sustained in the decision Ioxr hal hot their decision was final and absolute.

PENNIES ARE SCARCE.
Five Cent Pieces Are Also Very Hard
to Find

Topeka is in the midst of a penny
famine. Nickels also little more than
meet the demand. This lack of cur
rency not only affects the people who
are constitutionally broke but it is
noticeable among the banks where coins
of these two denominations sometimes
get to be superfuously abundant At
this time of the year, however, small
change is usually scarce in town. Its
absence is accounted for by the large
amount OF country trading that is done
in the fall.
We are always short of five cent
pieces in the fall" said F. NJ Bone
brake Of the Central National bank this
morning.
Trading through the country is al
ways heavier than at any other time
and most of the small transactions are
in cash. The shortage of five-cent
pieces is not SO noticeable now as it
was a week or two ago but we are and
have been shy of pennies for months.
I can't account for the disappearance
of the pennies. In the last six months
this bank alone has shipped into the
market here $500 worth of pennies. That
means about ten bushels of them. but
they are still scarce We get Dur small
currency principally from Kansas City
because it is more convenient We
could get it from the government. of
course, but it is quicker and a shorter
distance to ship them from Kansas
City,
The people az the banks are disposed
to think that the nickel famine has
passed the crisis and that the small
change will again return to the busy
marts of trade as silently as it went
away. 1t is not likely that Street car
service will be suspended on account of
an impossibility of getting car fare. al
though a continued shortage of FIVE
cent pieces might lead to considerable
embarrassment for the street car com
pany.

PIRATES HOME WELCOME.
Smoky City Pleased With Their Ball
Teams Work.

Pittsburg, Oct Give thousand peo-
pie gathered at the union depot to greet
the Pittsburg baseball players on their
return from their Boston trip. The
crowd was madly cheering for Pnillipp1
when the train drew into the depot. But
Manager Fred Clarke had been warned
by wire that demonstration was likely
to occur, and, fearing for the safety or
the big pitcher, had put him off the
train at East Liberty. where he TOOK 1t
street car to his home.
The champions are all in the best of
spirits. and despite the great handicap
of having but one pitcher upon wnons
they can depend declare that they will
win the series hands down.
The Bostons. who also arrived in the
city are looking well, and declare that
they are not yet defeated by any means.
Manager Clarke declares that the work
of his players, in their present crippled
condition, is nothing short of miracu-
lous.
The opposing pitchers today VIII be
Deacon Charles Phillippi, who has won
all of the games from Boston, and Billy
Dineen, who has taken the only one
from Pittsburg.

THEY FOUND A WAY.
Young Couple Elope Despite Mother
and Former Lover.

Manhattan Kas., Oct. 6.-Ray Hoyt
a young druggist in the employ of the
H. S. Willard Drug company here, and
Miss Blanche Brown, the pretty daugh-
ter of Mrs. H. L Brown, have set the
tongues wagging in Manhattan.
The marriage of the young couple
was to have taken place last week. The
mother of rhe prospective bride object
ed. as did 4 former sweetheart who. it
is said. at one time threatened the life
OF the girl and declared ne would rath-
er see her in her grave than married
to another man. On the evening set for
the wedding young Hoyt went to the
home of his fancee only to discover
that she had been persuaded by her
mother to tilt him and that she had
left but a few moments before for
Smith Center. Kas., leaving brief
note of farewell for the man she was
deserving.
On Saturday Miss Brown returned
home. apparently reconciled to the
shattering of her matrimonial plans.
Today she and Hoyt appeared stimuli
taneouslv a the station and took an
east bound train. 1t is thought they
have gone either to Lawrence or to
Kansas City to be married
