EMERGENCY CURRENCY
State Bankers Go on Record as
FayOring 1t.

"A discussion about the endorsement Of
some legislative measures in the inter

things lively during the last Few min

Thursday afternoon. G. G. K ScoE1le

association endorse the passage OF a

endorsed the passage OF a Dill authoi~

GOT WHAT WAS LEFT.
Joint Supplies and Fixtures Taken bv
RepIeviu

ABOUT everything which has not been
destroyed up to date in the way of
captured liquors and joint fixtures. was
cleaned out today on replevin by a rep
resentative of a Kansas City wholesale
1quor mouse. The suit was filed Tues
day evening by w. H. Fay, as agent
for the company which furnished a
NUMBER OF the joints with their wet
goods
Ch1ef McCollum refused to give a re-
delivery bond, and the work of hauling
away the stuff began yesterday after
noon. The replevin papers consist of
four typewriter sheets, and call for
all the goods. wet or dry, which were
taken from six joints, Geo. Anderson's,
Ed Timon's, Otto Anderson's, Geo.
klauer's, Nick Lonergans and o.
Kempton's places. Part of the stuff
has already been distributed along the
raging kaW via the sewer route, and
all the liquids named in the repIeVin
were not forthcoming. Should the booze
company beat the police in district
court when the suit is heard, they
will be entitled to damages against
some, one for the value of the liquor
destroyed. AS the chief is not under
bond. a judgment against him would
not be worth the price of a cheese
sandwich. This is the fifth replevin
suit pending against the chief In ev-
cry instance he has refused to give a
redelivery bond, but in no instance did
the Jointist get his goods intact. All
the empty beer kegs on hand were
smashed this morning, and all liquor
not covered by replevin will be dis
posed of in the same manner. Nearly
all the bars, which were stored in the
Jail yard. had been converted into
stovewood before the owners had time
to get replevins. Several ice chests and
tables We're returned.
The Jail basement was practically
cleaned out this morning, but will be
full of contraband stuff before mid
night

PRODUCTION DROPS.
Owing to Closing Down of Many
Blast Furnaces.

New York, Dec. 10.-The monthly
blast furnace statistics show, says the
Iron Age, how heavily the closing down
of blast furnaces has told on the pro-
duction, which in November. including
charcoal iron, fell to 1,074 900 tons, as
compared with an average of nearly
800, 900 tons during the months ofJuly,
August and September. Such a drop
within two months is unprecedented in
the American iron industry. Yet the
productive capacity working December
l was lower still than November l, the
capacity of all the furnaces in the
country declining from 282,21 gross
tons per week November 1, to 255,1S1
tons December l, thus foreshadowing
a further falling off. That these heroic
measures were necessary is proved by
the fact that even with SO sharp g, fall
ing off, stocks in the hands of report
ing merchants furnaces Increased from
sci, 1893 tons November 1 to COS, 1O9 tons
on December /. Supplies in consumers
hands must be down to the lowest
limit to which the constant pressure OF
buyers to secure Immediate delivery
clearly points. On the other hand a
partial report of the steel works stocks
shows a falling off of about $4,000 tons
during November.
Reports from all the principal distrib
uting centerS show a better feellng IN
the pig iron markets. A very nigh tom
mage OF southern pig iron has USCA
sold, a good deal of it earlier in the
week, on older options at So. Since then
the leading makers have successfully
advanced prices to 1925 and to $3.50
at Birmingham for No. 2.
There is a little more interest IN
Bessemer pig in the central west and
quite some movement in basic pig IN
the east, where it is selling at $13.75
and $1400, delivered, except in few
localities, where $3.50 can be done ow-
ing to favorable freight rates.
About ten days since the leading
southern interest booked an order for
5000 tons of pig iron for shipment to
England, the largest transaction OF the
kind made thus fer. Further business
on the same basis has been declined,
however.
The meeting next week of the billet
and of the makers of plates and steel
bars naturally make the market quiet
in these branches. Complaint is that new
work is coming in slowly in the ma
iority of lines Buyers are evidently
holding back to await developments,
while many manufacturers and mer-
chants purchase sparingly, with fnven-
tories so near at hand. Still there is
little better feeling since, notably IN
structural material; inquiries are COM
ing in which show a greater activity IN
the building trades.

NEXT YEAR FOOTBALL.
Plans of Manager Leach Include
Strong Teams.

Manager Frank Leach, whose propo-
for $500 year and so per cent. of the
net income. which was voted on today
by the Washburn Athletic association,
denies emDhatica1Iy the report printed
in a morning paper in regard to next
years football schedule. He says:
IF I have anything to say about II,
the very pleasant athletic relations
which have existed between Washburn
and the State Normal. State AgricuI-
tural and College of Enporia will be
continued. We have no intention of
emitting these teams from our sched-
uIe. We hope to get them on our base
bail schedule. Nothing could be fur
Their from our intention than to leave
out these three teams.
Tt is true that Nebraska university
has written us Offering US a date. They
want us to come to Lincoln for the
game. l hope to be able to bring them
to Topeka for the first game. Negotia-
tons have not progressed far enough
Yet to tell much about it. They have
offered US our choice of three dates
we will also play Kansas and Mis-
souri, next year. K. u. is very anxious
to have next years game played at
Lawrence. [ think that we NAV he
able to hold the game in Topeka. be-
cause of the better financial possibiIi-
ties. We could afford to pay K. u
more to come here than they could
afford to nay us to go there I think
Missouri university will probably play
IN Iopeka next year. It will be the
1lrst time its football team has ever
Deen here, though it's baseball team
mas been here several times''
Manager Leach is in favor of taxi
ing on Doane university of Crete, Neb.
Tor regular game. Doane plays under
conference rules. 1t is also likely that
ottawa university will be in the field
next fall with a strong team Ottawa
is usually a formidable opponent of
Washburn. The Washburn schedule
will probably include these games:
Nebraska university.
Kansas university.
Missouri university
Haskell Indians
Ottawa university.
Kansas State Normal.
Kansas State Agricultural
College of Emporia.
In case any of these teams fail to
make good, Washburn will make a date
with Doane. There is not much pro-
spect of a game with Lindsborg. 1t is
possible that a Thanksgiving day game
will be arranged with Haskell
Washburn's baseball schedule is now
being arranged. Games will probably
be played with the teams above men
toned on the football schedule and in
addition a trip will be arranged to in
clude the principal schools in Missouri
Iowa and Nebraska. Washburn has
good material for baseball team, but
the financial situation was left in very
bad shape by Manager Steele last
year. 1t will take about $3.50 to pay
up the baseball debts. Practically all
of the money earned by the football
season will be needed to make good
the deficit i'll last years baseball. The
team will have to be reoutftted from
top to toe.
