that they would have trouble IN getting

FRUIT RATES UNCHANGED.
Railroad Officials Decide to Continue
Present Schedule.

A conference between representatives
of the California Fruit agency and those
of the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe rail-
roads has been held at Los Angeles oil
the question of freight rates on oranges.
The fruit men asked a reduction from
$1.25 to 81 per 100 pounds. After several
hours of discussion the railroad officials
declared they were unable to grant the
reduction. ]. C. Stubs represented the
Southern Pacific and Paul Morton the
Santa Fe.
The present effort to reduce the fruit
rate is stated to have been conceived for
the express purpose of throwing dust into
the eyes of the irate growers and with
no intention that it shall succeed. The
two railway systems affected are said Ia
be standing in in order to help their
friends inside the California fruit agency
1t is declared that the scheme may go
as far as the concession of an emergency
rate of $40 hundred pounds on oranges
although this is not probable.
Mr.. Kinney, one of the fruit growing
representatives. alleges pooling between
the Southern Pacific and the Santa Pc,
eXorbitant and unreasonable rates, unlaw-
ful concessions by the Santa F'e 10 the
Santa Fe Refrigerator and Dispatch com
pany, an unlawful division of the citrus
shipments from southern California BY
initial lines in restraint of trade between
the states, Illegal contracts entered inro
by the Southern Pacific and the Union
Pacific and Santa Fe with the Wells
Fargo Express company. The last charge
is entirely separate from the other counts
in Mr.. kidneys general Indictment, IN
that it is sought to prove by the COM
plainant that the railway lines mentiorl-
ed have illegal contracts over their sys-
TENS for sleeping car and express bust
ness, which are alleged to be monopoies
as operated and contrary to law. This
issue never has been decided and really
appears 10 be the most important in Mr.
Kinney's bill.

PASSOVER is NOW
Being OBSERVED
ISraeIiteS to Celebrate for
Eight Days
COMMENCING LAST NIGHT
People viii Partake of Mas
Soth and Wine.
COMMENCING LAST NIGHT

The Passover will be observed by the
Israelites of Wichita in all its pomp and
glory. When the last rays of the sun
faded from sight last night the Passover
commenced and festivities were held by
the Semitic people all over The world and
will be continued for a period of eight
days
It is only the orthodox Israelite who
lives up to the teachings and practice OF
this feast, and the reformed ones claim
that they do not hold This period sacred
as in olden times The Passover is one
Of the most holy and yet happy occasions
of the Israelitish church. The Passover
Is held in commemoration of the passing
OF the Israelites out of the land of EgypC
from under the despotic and cruel reign
of King Pharaoh into the land Of Canaan.
Authorities differ on the Interpretation
OF the Passover. Some explain it as be-
ing in the spring of the year when the re-
r.ioval took place into the land of Ca
naan. With this is connected The story
that the Israelites were accustomed to
having feasts during the spring when
the corn was growing and when The
wheat was being harvested.
During the eight days which they viii
celebrate they viii eat unleavened bread
or a kind Of cracker called by them
"Massoth." With this II y will drink
wines and have a general feast and an
all around good time. In olden times ii
was the custom 10 dance, drink and have
merriment of all descriptions.
L lii oz-r,N-
to carry out the doctrines of the Tohra
and the precepts that they were taught
Ly their elders concerning The sacredness
Of the Passover. They will eat Mas
soth" for eight days, They will dance,
drink wines AMI have one continuous
feast during the entire time. In some
parts OF the world It is the custom to
close Up places of business during the
whole period, but here they will not STOP
their business Yet they will observe the
Passover in all its significance.
The Israelite considers the Passover as
important as the American does the
Fourth of July. No doubt at this time
over in the old country the Israelites are
enjoying themselves with all the rev.
cries and pleasantries that any people
on earth can during the celebration Of
one event Praises viii be sung far and
near and all Israeltes will have private
festivities in their homes and the fam
fly will live in luxury and happiness like
lords of old.
In Biblical times the Israelites We're ac-
Cushioned to killing a sheep out of the
family's flock and sprinking the blood
thereof on the doorsteps Of their houses /
during the Passover and it is recorded
by some historians that this custom was
carried down 10 medieval days. It L.
not now in vogue, however. This one |
point in the doctrine of the Israelites was (
misconslrued by the Russians and wax
the cause. although a poor ana fimsy /.
subterfuge for massacre, of much /.
bloodshed in Kishneff.

PADDY SHEA DIES SUDDENLY
WELL KNOWN CHARACTER PASS
ED AWAY AT ENID. o. 7.
He Gained Notoriety Through the Kill
ing of Ed Dawson in This City
Several Years Ago.

Paddy Shea, aged 40 years prize fighter
and perhaps one of the best known char
acters about Wichita, who had lived here
for nearly IS years prior to one week ago,
died yesterday morning at Enid. o. T,
of d complication of diseases. So far as
is known Shea leaves no relatives and
he will be buried at the expense of the
county authorities at Enid
Shea gained much prominence in
Wichita at one time as a result of his
shooting and killing Ed Dawson. well
known character once Shea was con.
victed Of manslaughter in the Sedgwick
county courts and was taken to the state
penitentiary at Lansing. He spent but
one day of a ten years sentence in that
institution, when his attorneys secured
for him a new trial and he was returned
to the Sedgwick county jail At the trial
the jury disagreed and the case was
finally dismissed
Shea's defense throughout the trial was
that of self defense and witnesses cor
bcrated that part of the testimony at
the different trials.
Shea was a prize fighter Of some NOTE
when in his prime and had numerous
fisLc encounters in this city At ore
time he met Denver Ed Smith in the
Crawford, and a fast bout was the re
suit After closing out a saloon which
re owned in the stock yards district after
the killing of Ed Dawson. Shea spent
whatever time he INDUCED in work. at
giving private boxing lessons At one
time is was rumored that Shea was to
fight twenty rounds with Tommy Ryan
at Kansas City. The bout never mater

LICENSES MUST Be PAID UP
POLICE DEPARTMENT is BUSY IN
MAKING COLLECTIONS,
Money Was Due January 81 and One
Fifth Have Not Vet Settled
for Privileges.

Unless numerous firms doing business
in the city of Wichita. who are required
by the city ordinances to pay licenses,
come un shortly with the amount due the
city, some of them are apt to find them
selves called upon to pay a fine in addi-
ton to the regular license.
The fines We're all due January 81
said Chief of Police Burt, land about
four-ffths have settled. The other one
fifth are unusually tardy. The payments
are now overdue. as can readily be seen,
two months. We will give the deIinquents
five more days yet, until April 9Th. If
the licenses are not forthcoming. then
their places viii be closed and warrants
for their arrests will follow.
The licenses do not cost much,' said
Mr.. Burt, and in nine cases out of ten
failure to pay up is due more to negli-
gence than desire to beat the city
Some. however, try to dodge the collector
and these are the ones who we are after
the hardest"
The kind of business which is subject
10 a license by city ordinances regulating
each case. are as follows: real estate
dealers, life insurance agents. fire insur-
ance agents. and all other kinds of in
surance agencies, grain dealers. peddlers,
astrologers, mind readers. shooting gall
leries, billiard halls. ticket brokers. pawn
brokers' employment agencies, bowling
alleys, scavengers, hotel runners, bill
posters theaters and clairvOyants
The licenses for these kind of business
net the city of Wichita close to 5000 each
year Prior to this year collectors were
always engaged to gather the licenses. At
present the work falls on the police de-
partment and it has kept the members
busy ever since January 81, when the
licenses were first due.
