MARTINDALE FREE.
Litigation Over Emporia Bank
Failure Closes.

Kansas City. Mo-, Jan. 1s.-Judge
John F. Phillips of this city, sitting in
the federal court in Kansas City, Kas..
gave decision today which frees Will
liam Martindale. former vice president
of the First National bank of Emporia.
Kas. Martindale was indicted for mis-
application of the banks funds. The
failure Of this bank in November. 1901,
was followed by the suicide of its pres
fdent, Charles F. Cross, within an hour
after the bank was closed
The indictment against Martinda1e con-
sisted of IS counts, charging the defend
ant with misapplication in some in
stances, or abstracting of others, in draw
ing checks on his account in this bank,
of which he had no funds. The amount
on which indictments were based is less
than S. 600.
President Cross. in letter found in his
desk, after death. had taken all the
blame of the failure upon himself and
fully exonerated Martindale and Mr.. Da-
Wis, the cashier, of any connection with
the failure.

HocH AND THE aRooERs.

The whole fight on Governor Bailey
is SO unjust, and the abuse SO unmerit-
ed, that to pick out individual instances
is somewhat superfiuous. There have
been rumors that the grocers were go
ing to organize for Hoch; not that Mr..
Hoch's record is any better for fair
ness than Governor Baileys, but for
some sort of revenge because the pres
ent governor would not approve law
which permitted one class to take ad
vantage of another one. This fight of
the grocers has been opened up by a
statement from Chas. P. Adams, of
Adams Brothers of this city, publishers
of a grocers' periodical.
The statement is made that the gov
ernor told the grocers he would do what
he could for them. The governor, how
ever, could not approve what their leg
islative bill turned out to be. His
statement in another column of this
paper is clear refutation of the
charges.
If Mr.. Hoch believes the governor was
wrong, he should now come out in a
statement and say that he would have
approved such a measure on the part
of the groeers. It will, of course, not be
necessary for Mr.. Hoch to commit him
self on what he would do if such a
measure were proposed for the benefit
of the butchers. the bakers, or the
candlestick makers, instead of the gro
GERS.
Governor Bailey being a fair man
trying to do his duty, of course had no
desire to do any injustice to the gro
GERS, and he certainly did not mean to
permit the grocers to take advantage of
the railroad men and other laboring
men in the state.

Fourteen years continuous service is
sufficient evidence of the SUCCESS OF

whom are as widely known. His prin-
cipal success was as a pastor, far more
so than as q preacher. He has had
numerous other calls in years past.

SHOEMAKERS WRANGLE.
Controversy Between Union Officials
and Expelled Members.

Cincinnati, O., Jan. 1S-The convention
OF the Boot and Shoe Workers Interna-
tional union today resumed consideration
OF the controversy between its general Of
hcers and expelled members from ST.
Louis. A. J. Lawrence made a supple
mentary statement for those whose char
ters had been revoked, after which he and
r. G. Pinta answered questions while
Edward c. Mottan assisted as counsel.
Lawrence said there We're about 700 mem
bers of the Shoe Workers union in ST.
Louis that are affiliated now with the
American Labor union and he insisted
that this was due to the opposition to
the action of the general officers and not
to the Boot and Shoe Workers union
The defense was opened by c. j. Nc
Morrow, the national organizer, who
made the contract with II. NJ. Eaton
for the Hamilton and Brown factory at
st. Louis, which had been credited with
cousing the trouble McMorrow held the
contract to be a good one for the en-
ployes and fair to all but for certain ones
in St Louis who were constantly seeking
a pretext to break that contract. He in
sisted these parties had defied all au-
thority of the general officers and that
the question was one of general insub-
ordination. He said Pinta and others at
St. Louis advocated the contract, but that
Lawrence was not satisfied with the pro-
vision for cutters.

Advocates of the post check currency
system regard as encouraging the rec
ommendation of Postmaster General
Payne in his annual report, in which he
says: THE rapid extension of the rural
free delivery service increases the de-
mand that the government shall pro-
vide some easy, convenient and safe
method for the transmission of small
sums of money through the mails, and
I urge upon congress the Importance of
passing some law which will insure to
our people this advantage at as early
q date as possible. AS the rural free
delivery service has been extended the
number of letters carrying small
amounts of currency has greatly in
creased. At present there is no con-
venient method provided in the rural
districts for making such remittances
through the mails except in currency or
postage stamps, and such currency and
stamp remittances are a constant
temptation to those handling them"

DEFENDS BRlSTOW.
Senator Hale Regards His Work
as Covering the Ground.

Washington, Jan. 1S-Resolutions
looking to an investigation by congress
of the postofice department were laid
before the senate today and Mr.. Hale
addressed that body in defense of the
administration and in criticism of the
Democratic side concerning the insult
ficiency of the Bristow inquiry He de-
clared there never had been so ruthless
an investigation as that which had ex-
posed the frauds in the postoffice de-
partment. Mr.. Hale said it had been
settled by general consent that all OF
the resolutions coming from different
senators should be sent to the commit
tee on Dostoffiees and post roads for
consideration. He believed that to be
the most suitable way of proceeding in
asmuch as the chairman of that com
mittee had given assurance that the
resolutions would be reported prompt

She Is Found Guilty of Smashing the
"Palms" Windows.

Blanche Boies was tried and convict
ed in the district court this morning, be-
fore a jury, on the charge of smashing
the front windows of the Copeland drug
store on February A. 1903, in Is min
utes.
The jury was not challenged by Coun-
ty Attorney Hungate, for the prosecu-
ton, nor by j. NJ. Dumenil, attorney for
Miss Boies. The testimony was very
brief and to the effect that Miss Boies
was seen smashing the windows. Her
attorney did not cross examine and no
testimony was entered for the defense.
Dumenil said he did not care to argue
the case. The jury retired and elected
Edward Wilder foreman and then pro-
ceeded to return a verdict of guilty of
malicious trespass.
Miss Boies was in Jail where she was
placed Saturday by Sheriff Lucas on Il
commitment from the supreme court

HUTCHINSON TO LEAVE.
North Topeka Preacher VIII 60
to Colorado.

The Rev. W. B. Hutchinson, of the
North Topeka Baptist church, has re-
signed after IA years of service among
the parishioners of the North side. He
will leave about February to accept
the pulpit of the Baptist church of Sa-
Ida, Col. No successor to his pulpit
here has been found as the announce
ment of his intended withdrawal was
made only yesterday. There was an af-
fecting scene in the church when DR..
Hutchinson made known his resigna-
ton yesterday. His relations with the
congregation have always been of the
most congeniaI nature and his convic-
ton that he should step out to make
way for a younger man is given as his
reason for withdrawing now. He thinks
that it will be easier for him to leave
now than later.

MARSHALL WON'T ASH.
Says That He Doesn't Want That
$1,000.

J. B. Marshall, register of deeds for
Shawnee county, has announced to the
board of county commissioners that he
does not intend to demand the payment
of $1,000 out of the fees of his office,
that have been turned over to the
county, to be used for clerk hire.
The last legislature passed a special
act allowing the register of deeds in
Shawnee and half q dozen other coun-
ties to retain an additional thousand
dollars, that had formerly been turned
over to the county, for clerk hire. Mr..
Marshall had nothing to do with the
passage of the law and has always
said that he did not believe that 1t
was a just act and therefore he will not
take the money.
