REPUBLICAN, TICKET GETS
: BIG MAJORITY IN WICHITA

Some grey-haired matrons stood in line
at the polls and patiently awaited their
turn. Young women donned their best
buds and went to the polls laughing, but
with flushed faces, and any one could
sec considerable nervousness apparent in
each one. They did not know just what to
do, although within the past few days
nearly every one had been told by their
father. big brother or some of those cleo
pioneering just how to 90 when they
reached the polls.
Some put on brave front and marched
up to the clerks and announced their
name. Others glided tinaidly up TO the
table and bending over the judge or clerk.
whispered their name in his ears, and
jumped when he called in stentorian tones
who the next voter was to be. Those
who voted for the first time this year
were scared, but it was authoritatively
stated last night that a less percentage
of women's ballots were thrown out on
account of illegal marking than those of
the men.
The voting began early. The carriages
of both clans started promptly at o'clock
and at each voting place there was quite
a number of persons ready to vote when
the polls opened. Throughout the morn
ing there was a rush of voters and the
larger part of the ballots cast were IN
the ballot boxes before noon. The car
riages were busy all day and there were
few idle moments for the judges or clerks
throughout the day. There was mighty
little storytelling and hot-air spelling
about the polls yesterday.
At some times during the day there
was crowd at some of the voting places,
and people had to stand in line to await
their turns to vote. There were six to
eight booths in each precinct, and these
accommodated the voters as fast as the
clerks and judges could number the bal
lots, check the name and hand out the
ballots. Some time three or four car
riages would reach a precinct at the
same time, and fifteen or twenty people
would be ready to vote at once. There
was no confusion. however.
Every one In Wichita was interested,
and those who could spare the time WIS.,
tied the polls during the day to ascertain
how many persons had voted, and from
the party men on the outside the sample
ballots just how many of each party had
voted up to a certain hour.
There was no excitement in any ward.
Very few challenges were made. some few
had to go to the city clerks office to get
certificate of registration, owing I'd
some error when the books were copied.
The voters were quiet and good-natured.
Every person you met of course asked
for information about the election, but
aside from this and the number OF car
riages on the streets one could hardly tell
an election was on. unless they passed
some of the voting places.
The definite returns obtainable at 2
O'clock this morning are as follows:

Yesterday was an ideal election day.
The sun was shining al day. but the
temperature was low enough 10 be pleas
ant. and this accounts for the large vote
being polIed. Many people posted on
such matters expected the total vote poll
ed TO be less than s.eoo. bat the total vote
was la0Sl.
Every one took an interest in the cleo
ton There was n larger percentage Of
women voting than in any former year.

men voted for the first time this year

LAWYER REBUKED.
MT. sempie's Brief Held to Con,
 tain Insults Unfit for Record.


 ''The Court wishes the appellants s counsel to understand that it condemns the fact that his brief contains matter which should he expunged from the record. The unjustifiable statements therein contained refecting on the trial justice are subject to the severest re- proof and censtIre. They are insulting and uncaiied for, and the entire appel lant's brief is ordered expunged from the record of the court"
 This language was used yesterday. says The New York American by Presiding Justice Charles H. Van Brunt of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, to T. Darlington Semple. in the case of Frank Mowbray against Howard Gould.
 Mowbray was Howard Gould's valet. He says that an explosion of fireworks on Mir. Gould's yacht Hildegarde put out one of his eyes, and that Mir. Gould agreed to employ him for life at sSo a month. Mowbray was discharged in St. Petersburg and sued for t20000 damages. He won q verdict of ss,000. Mir. Gould appealed and a new trial before Justice Truax resulted in MT. Gouid's favor.
 Lawyer Sempie took an appeal. A. Fl. Hummel. Mir. Qould's lawyer, called the attention Of the Court to what he termed the 'anarchistic language" of his opponent, and Chief Justice Van Brunt made the remarks quoted. He reserved decision on the appeal itself.
 Mr. Semple was formerly a well known Montgomery lawyer.

CONTRACTS NOT SHOWN
COAL ROADS RErUsB TO o31Y
 THE oRpE1.
United states Circuit Court Will Decide Whether Agreements Must De Produced Before the
 Commercs Communication

New York, April sss--rhs Interstate Commerce Commission today continued the investigation into the complaint agair ct the anthracite coal carrying raiI- roads filed by william R. Heart.
 Counsel for Mr. Hearst called for the contracts between the Temple Iron Com pany. the Lehigh Valley, and the Deia- ware. Lackawanna and Western. and the Philadelphia and Reading Railroads. but counsel for the railroads objected because the Temple Iron Company is not named In the complaint. At the suggestion Of Judge Campbell, counsel called indfvidu- ally for all the papers wanted that the one objection might cover them all.
 MT. Shearn explained that the contracts will show a combination or pool of the freight interests in violation of the law.
 Three contracts" Mir. shearn said. Will prove every material allegation in our petition.
 ''rhe railroads are banded in . hard and fast agreement which stifies ali com petition in he coal carrying trade in the coal regions"
 Counsel for the railroads denied this. They declared that the Temple Iron Company was acquired by 0eorge r. Basr and the interests friendly to him because it owned . charter that the rail- road and mining ofi1cials needed.
 representative of the trust company holding the contracts denied the right of the Commission to investigate it's as- fairs.
 Replying to Commissioner, Prouty counsel for the railroads said that the rates on anthracite were not double those on bituminous.
 T claim that these contracts furnish evidence of a pool" said MT. Shearn. The Temple Iron Company is nothing but sham"
 The Commission instructed the repre- sentative of the trust company to pro- duce the contracts. but he refused to do so. According to custom, the Commis- sion will certify the refusal to the United States Circuit Court. which will determine whether the contracts must be produced.

HoEoRs TO AMERICAN WOMEN

AHefe Has never be sn step Of greater importance for the higher education for women than the formation of the Asso- citation for Maintaining the American Woman's Table at the Z,ologicl Il Station at Naples. and for promoting Scientific Research by Women. Not only s n great impetus given to all scientific research work for women, but the general interests of the higher education for women are advanced by the conference of the Presi- dents, deans and executive officers of many of the institutions in the United States that concern the higher education for women. This Is the only association bringing them together on a common ground. This year the meeting was at Smith College on Ap.ii IS. The Associa-
 ton which numbers among its members eleven colleges and co-educational insti- futions as well as associations and indi- yiduals, maintains table at the ceie- hrated Geological Station at Naples, awarding places at it to from one to five people each year. A place at the table for 1so3-4 was awarded to Dr. Grace Emil ly Cooley Associate Professor of Botany at Wellesley College, who will thus be- come scholar of the Association. An ad- ditional award was, however, to be made this year, that of the prize of sl,000, of- fered two years ago for the hest piece of scientific research work done by a wo- man. The importance of this prize is far beyond It's money value, as 1t has not only encouraged much research work, but has made those doing it known to a large number of the most eminent scientific men in this country. Twelve professors representing the biological, chemical and physiological sciences act as Board of Ex. aminers for the Association. This year fA Nafn A. =t.,
 vestigation. Four of these dealt with botany. two were purely physiological
 one meteorological, one anatomical, three embryological and five geological. The prize of $1.000, with the honor it confers
 was awarded to Dr. Florence R. Sabin, Assistant in Anatomy at the Johns Hop kins University Medical School. Dr. Sa- hin presented the results of an investiga- ton on the origin of the lymphatic sys- tenn. embodying discovery of far-reach- ing importance believed to be the most important contribution yet made to the morphology of the lymphatic system. pr. Sabin is a graduate of Smith College and has received the degree of M. D. from Johns Hopkins. She is also the first wo- man to be appointed an instructor at the Johns Hopkins Medical School.
 Honorable mention was given to the pa- per entitled Contributions to the Life His tory of Pinus. by Miss Margaret Clay Ferguson, Instructor in Botany at Well lesley College. This is considered one of the most important investigations of the coniferae that has been made in America
 The prize of $1,0O0 Is again offered to be awarded in 1905. The Association is maintained by annual subscriptions of $50 each. and as 1t grows it will be able to do still more in the encouragement of scientific research work. It will meet next year for the award of scholarships
