waste water that is turned into the
county roads that the county commits
sioners must pay some attention to the
matter. As chairman of the board l
find that over 80 per cent of the letters
that come to me are kicks, protesting
against this practice which places so
many of the by-ways in an impossible
condition. The law is very plain and
should a few prosecutions be made l am
of the opinion there will be less of the
business done. 1t is my intention to
make an example of the very first party
found permitting waste water running
into the roads and shall continue the
prosecutions until the nuisance is
abated.

the Mount Carmel company. Mr. Dew
lin stated that the Santa Fe had no
control over the zEcduct of any of the
Mount Carmel mines and handled tile
product of the coal delds on a basis
similar to that Of any other class oe
freight He said he had no interest H
the Southwestern Fuel company.
In regard to the situation in the min
ing district for the last four months.
Mr. Devlin testified that the price being
paid for coal mining was IS cents per
ton, the price which has maintained for
the last year. In the Mount Carmel
mines the increase has amounted 10
about Is per cent over the quantity OF
coal dug year ago. This increase in
output was required to make up for the
lack of the usual supply of anthra cite
coal and to meet the increased demands
OF the railroads. When asked If he did
not think the railroads were in the habit
OF taking coal in transit without proper
Justification. he said he did not. He
said he did not think. the ra afIroa 5s were
inclined TO abuse the custom of coal
confiscatiOn but on the other hand, the
Santa Fe had taken steps for the stor-
age of unusual amounts of coal last fall
and that the amount stored was INSULT
clent to cope with the increased de-
mands for fuel The railroads in this
state, said Mr.. DevIin. used between
one-eighth and one-seVenth more coal
during this winter than they have ever
done during an equal period within his
recollection.
According to him coal can be salts
lactorlly stored for periods of from
eight months to a year. This observa-
ton made without reserve is in direct
contradiction to tateTnents made by
other coal operators and by Mr. Nudge
OF the Santa Fe- Mr.. Nudge, at his ex-
animation by the Investigation commit
tee, also gave out the impression that
the Santa Fe was disposed to abandon
the practice of storing coal in large
quantities on account Of the danger of
combustion. Mr.. Nudge had announc-
ed that the cOnfscation of coal con-
signed to state institutions was not
santioned by the railroad MANAGEMENT
and would be stopped Mr. Devlin took
the position that there ought to exist a
as the railroads needs were concerned.
and that they should be permitted to
borrow and return without restriction.
The Usage county mines have pro-
duced more this winter than ever be-
fore. From the Carmel mines alone
there has been an increase of one hun
dred thousand tons,s enough to make up
coal in Kansas. The anthracite shortage
has amounted to about 40 000 tons If
there is an embarrassing shortage of
fuel the fact that railroad eonpan MES
have made increased demands upon a
Strengthened market, has something to
do with it. Most of the mines have
been working full or overtime and there
have been no wage difficulties with the
miners There has been disposition to
increase retail prices but there has been
no coal supply with which to oppose
this increase.
Senator Mcmillan wanted to move the
investigation to EIttsburg but the rest

WILL MEET THURSDAY.
Democrats to Then Fix Date for
Primary.

Thursday night the Democratic city
central committee viii meet to decide
upon the time and method of holding
the Democratic city primaries.
The Republicans have Z come IL
combination this year" said a promi-
nent Democrat today. Their nomina-
tions closed on the 7th. and their prI-
marias will be on the 18th. I think the
Democrats should go them one better,
by having their primary convention on
Friday. March Is"
It is certain that the Democrats will
wait till after the Republicans have
made their nominations before they take
up the naming of their ticket. They
want to see what sort of men will be
best suited to oppose whatever candi-
dates the Republicans select.
The central committee seems to be
pretty evenly divided on the two methods
proposed for holding the convention
Half want delegates to be selected from
the various wards. and the other half
think that mass convention is the
proper thing The mass convention
would be desirable from a Democratic
standpoint, because It would give every
body an equal chance to talk The dele
gate convention is preferred by some
because it keeps out Republicans
A compromise has been proposed by
which it shall be a delegate convention
OF about $50 delegates, allowing one del
egate for every 25 votes cast for Mayor
Parker. This would allow almost every
Democrat in town who wants to be q
delegate to secure a place.

STORE UP COAL.
That Is Advice of C. J. DeYlin,
Coal King of Kansas.

"The only preventive for coal fam
ines said c. J. Devlin before the legis-
lative investigation committee Tuesday
Afternoon lis to induce the people to
store COAL This statement had refer
ence also to manufacturing institutions
and railroads The present coal short
age, according to Mr.. Devlin, is the re-
suit of a combination of untoward cir
cumstances, the most powerful of which
have been the anthracite famine a
period of unusual prosperity occas1Oning
n increased movement of railroad traf-
fic, and the general failure of coal con-
sumers to provide themselves in ad-
vance with fuel
Mr.. Devlin's testimony, while it de-
veloped nothing absolutely new, was in
teresting as coming from the coal king
Of Kansas, the man who holds the phys
fcaI comfort of more people under his
control than does any other man. Mr.
Devlin places no responsibility for the
famine upon the operators. Mr.. DeVlin
is not disposed to censure the railroads
for confscatiOn of fuel so much as he
upbraids the management Of the state
institutions for not laying in large coal
supplies early
coal belonging to a state institution
even when that institution has only
four hours supply ahead; provided the
railroad takes care to return the coal
before the institution actually is out of
fuel" =" This was Mr.. Devlins reply to
a question in regard to the recent seiz-
ure of coal belonging to the insane asy-
lum.
The legislative coal famine investiga-
ton has almost completed its work but
has not yet discovered anything. It has
made itself reaSOnab bly, certain that the
statements in regard to the origin Of
the present famine. reiterated by Mr.
Dev1in, are about correct. Tuesday
afternoon the investigation adjourned
until Thursday morning at which time
George w. kierstead of LeavenwOrth,
the last witness. will be examined. II is
understood that he viii be able to throw
some light upon the car famine alleged
to have induced the coal shortage. After
that there win be nothing for the COM
rnittee to do but to make its report in
which, beyond a peradventure, it will
exonerate from tangible responsibility
the heretofore alleged agents of the
Kansas coal famine.
Next year coal burners will have to
begin putting in coal before the autumn
leaves begin to fall or history viii re
neat itself

A HORRID CRIME.
The Dinsman Case at Yelling
ton Is Up for Trial.

Wellington, Kan, Feb. 1.-THE News
says of the Cummings murder case IN
which jury is now being selected.
The man who committed the most
cruel and cold blooded murder record
ed in criminal history of the county,
and then burned the body to conceal
the crime, must answer the charge Of
the state.
Anna Dinsman, thirteen years old. q
domestic in the home of Jonn Cum
mings, had been the butt of his jibes
and ridicule for weeks One day in
August 1899s so ne says, she spat in a
pan of dishWater she was carrying to
throw out. He seized a broom handle
and hurled it at her head, striking her
in the temple. She did not appear to
be hurt, but a few days later, the
wound began to swell and give evidence
Of blood poison She was put in her
room at first, but when it appeared to
Cummings that the wound might cause
death, he ordered her to a small smoke
house a few yards from the house
There were no screens on the coal
house and the weather was intensely
hot. The girl was given no food or Wa
ter while she lay in the ccal house, ex-
cept one time when Mrs. Cummings
gave her q drink. The dies sWarned
about her, while she burned up from
the broiling sun without and the blis-
tering fever within. But the hand oi
John Cummings was not lifted to help
this poor dying girl, the victim of his
blow, till the death angel in very pity
snatched her from his clutches.
To hide his fiendish work, the body
was dragged at night across the field to
a small draw where he buried it. After
wards, he was so tortured with the
knowledge of her presence that he
crept out on another night, dug up the
body and burned it in straw stack
Still a few bones. weird and unsightly
lay in the charred mass. These he
scraped up in a basket and burned in
the kitchen stove. Then he told the
neighbors and wrote to the girls moth
er that she had gone away with some
movers

CLEANING OFF THE MUD.
Street Commissioner Guggs Is Fixing
Up Pavements.

Street Commissioner Griggs is clean
ing the mud off from the streets. If he
hasn't come to your street yet. don't
be disappointed, for he has a dozen
teams and two gangs of men at work
and is getting there as fast as possible.
During the past two weeks of mud,
Mr. Griggs says there have been only
five days when it was possible for the
work to proceed. In those five days. his
force has hauled away 405 loads of mud.
At a rough estimate, this reporter, who
rides a wheel, would say that there are
about 5000 900 loads still to be hauled.
Mr.. Griggs said today: Il have not
said much about the criticisms which
have been made on my work. because I
expect to issue a report in about
month giving a summary of what has
been accomplished during the year I
have been in Office. ] will show what
the work has cost and all about it. The
pay roll of the department has been
about the same as under my nredeces-
sor, but other miscellaneous expenses of
