WILL BRING IN ITALIANS
Street Railway to Use $50 on
Topeka Construction.

In order to be able to push the work
on the reconstruction of the Topeka
railway lines Vice President L. E. My
ers has determined to import from the
east 100 italian workmen. Work upon
the rebuilding of the tracks has been
greatly delayed by the inability of the
company to secure enough labor on the
local market. Il greatly regret the ne
cessity of giving this work to outside
labor" said Mr.. Myers today, but the
company lis obliged to resort to it. Our re-
construction has been so delayed already
that it will keep US busy with the in
creased force to carry out our plans for
work that needs to be done before cold
weather Until this time the company
has relied solely upon Topeka laborers
for its work and will continue to give
local help the preference The Italians
will be employed only so long as is alb
solutely necessary to put us ahead with
o1lr work.

MRS. COOK BOUND OVER
Matrimonial Agent Must Stand
Trial.

Mrs. Ella Cook, the woman who is
alleged to have run a matrimonial
agency in Topeka and to have swindled
]. w. Mars of Belvidere out of $22,
was bound over for trial before the
grand jury al Leavenworth in Octo-
Der, at her hearing before u. S. Commits
sioner A. F. Williams this morning.
She was released upon $500 bond. Mrs.
Cook received the decision of the COM
missioner as if she expected It and was
ready to furnish bond for her appear
ance.
The victim of the matrimonial swindle
said to have been perpetrated by Mrs.
Cook was present and lent his testi-
mony to the case. Probably the most
damaging piece of evidence submitted
by him was a letter from Mrs Cook.
In it she explained to him that the name
Mrs. Sraah A. Jones. under which she
received mail, was an assumed one,
taken to conceal her identity. Ever
since her arrest Mrs. Cook has protest.
ed that Mrs. Jones really exists.
Testimony to this effect was given by
Mrs Esther Brooks, who it is claimed,
acted as cats paw in Mrs. Cooks
transactions. The evidence of the let
ter will damage her defense materially

Baltimore evidently is up against

goes the fiat car wheel on the car track.
And nearer. clearer deadlier than be-
fore sounds the thump. thump. thump
of the car with the fiat wheel in our
streets at all hours of the day and
night Sometimes it seems that the car
without at least one fiat wheel is the
infrequent exception rather than the
rule. Passengers of the cars find it diff
ficult to keep their seats because of the
tremendous jerk when the fiat part OF
the wheel hits the track. 1t has ten
dency to make some persons seasick.
Residents along the routes of the car
lines are kept awake at nights. Judg
ing from the outward effects the wear
and tear on the cars themselves must
be something tremendous. 1t is as if
some one should be continually pound
ing the car trucks with a heavy sledge
hammer Perhaps it pays to keep them
on and perhaps it doesn't-the company
ought to know. At any rate, it Is aw-
fully disagreeable and nerve-racking.
Cannot something be done to get rid of
them?"

RIVER IS RISING.
Within Two Feet of Mark of
Two Weeks Ago.

The Kansas river is showing a de-
cided inclination to rise at Topeka, and
has been growing gradually higher for
the past "A hours, being now about two
feet lower than it was two weeks ago
at the time when it covered the mouths
of the two sewers al the city park.
This morning the underfiow. working
into the right of way of the Topeka
railroad bridge, cut off the car service
on the Oakland line. All day pas
sengers have been transferred under the
bridge. The river has not yet covered
the road at that point, the water being
yet confined to the excavated car
ira J<s.
During Wednesday night the river
rose two feet. Between $3.50 o'clock this
morning and p. m it rose seven in
ches and at 2:30 o'clock ii was reported
to be rising at about the same rate
Reports from Kansas City indicate
that considerable alarm is felt there
over rises expected in both the Kansas
and Missouri rivers. The Missouri is
flooded by heavy rains in Iowa but
there appears to be little ground for
alarm on account of rises in the Kaw.
Inquiries to towns west of Topeka
along the Kaw valley show that the
river has not been seriously affected.
The flood on the Blue river is believed
to be responsible for the rise that Is
noticed at Topeka. The damage on the
Blue will be considerable. the height of
that stream being greater now than at
any time during the June flood.
Kansas City. Mo. Aug. 27.-Kansas
streams continue to rise fast At Law
renee the Kansas river rose four feet
during the night and at Stockdale, eight
miles north of Manhattan. the Blue is
a few inches higher than during the
great June flood. Near Stockdale the
Blue has broken from its banks and cut
ting across the country, is taking a
short course to the Kansas river. and
threatens to cut a new channel Many
farms are under water.
A bulletin issued by the weather bu-
reau announces that the Kansas river
at Kansas City will rise from five to
seven feet in the next As hours. and
rise of equal magnitude, it is said is
coming down the Missouri river from
the north IF the waters meet at the
mouth of the Kansas river here as
seems likely great damage to bridges
and business in the bottoms here will
doubtless result.
