.BLAIN HARD At WORK AGAIN
PRATT MAN is PUSHING PLAN TO
BUILD CANAL.
Attempt viii Be Made to Have Reso-
Iutions Adopted by Republican
Convention.

d. w. Blaine of Pratt. is still hard at
work on his proposed plan to build an
interstate canal. He now has a plan to
make further progress in the project by
having the canal resolution endorsed as
they were by the meeting Of the South
western Kansas and Oklahoma Imple-
ment and Hardware Dealers association
meeting held in this city December 10.
1903. by the Republican congressional and
state conventions which VIII be held in
Wichita this week
Reading matter on the subject has been
mailed by Mr. Blaine to every member Of
the Wichita Commercial club. In u let
ter AR Blaine says: As You know. the
matter Of building ar interstate canal
originated in Wichita and as the Repubi-
can congressional and state conventions
Will be held in Wichita this week as we'll
as the Fedora ion of Commercial Inter
csts of Kansas. it seems to me that this
is great opportunity 10 give the wheel
another turn
Enclosed with each letter is a may OF
the proposed canal furnished by the Cram
Map Publishers which Mr. Blaine says
shows the plan is a feasible one and.
of course. while the lines on the map
do not carry the canal to Wichita, there
is nothing TO prevent if the requirements
demand IT. to bend IT over your way and
make Wichita the greatest grain mar
ket IN the entire country with the posi-
bid exception of the city which gets the
canal at the gulf end.
According to Mr.. Blaine the proposition

Others who pretend to know something
about the cost of the building think the
loss is about $685. 900. The building was
a frame structure and was built about
eighteen years ago. At the time Of the
fire the plant was not in operation and
had been closed down for nearly two
weeks Work OF making improvements
had been going on for that length Of time
and Only yesterday a brand new ice ma
chine was installed in the building.
The building was erected in 1887 and
was only a small structure in the begin
ming. Improvements had been made, how
ever, from time TO time said ]. NJ

Of the plant are L S. Naftzger and r

death was the principal owner of the
plant Afterward his interest was sod

directors, however, was never changed
and Delos Woods, 4 step son OF Major

company. The firm was incorporated with
a stock Of $4,000.
As TO just what amount of insurance is
carried on the plant no one could tell
last night Mr. Moore while he made
no pretentions Of knowing definitely what
amount was carried. thought the total
would not exceed more than $4,000. Mr.
Naftzger could not be reached by tele-
phone.
1t was about two o'clock before the
fire was entirely extinguished and hun

PERSONAL LETTERS
SENT DELEGATES
Federation of Commercial In
terestS Takes Part.
IN NOMINATING TICKET
Club Wants Say in Selection
of Candidates.

Probably the most peculiar as well as
the most interesting campaign that has
ever been waged in the state Of Kansas
is the struggle OF the Federation OF Com
political arena ana the actions OF its
members in the convention this week
will be the subject Of no little comment.
The results win me worth watching.
Marry Mcmillan, president OF the Fed
Grafton, and II. L. Resting, secretary, have
written a personal letter 70 each OF the
delegates TO the state convention asking
them To lend their hearty cooperation in
working for suitable measures and planks
in the platform and also for the proper
timber for certain Offices. The Fedora
ton feels that it should be recognized
in the political and legislative circles and
that. owing to the fact that II has with
in its organization the ma ority of the
business men of Kansas. it should have
something 10 say about the next state
ticket
The mails have been Kept hot with let
tiers Of various descriptions and addressed
to all branches Of commercial interests
ate organizations have been asked TO
employ every possible means within their
power and Jurisdiction to bring about
something substantial along the lines
now being fought for so diligently.
One Of the chief features of these Rum-
erous letters and one that attracts so
much attention and so much comment is
the fight the federation is making 10 Sc
cure the right men for railroad COM
missioners and the most congenial planks
and resolutions in the platform pertain
ing to the matter Of transportation and
freight rates.
Another new feature in this letter IS
the fact that the federation presents
names of various candidates for railroad
commissioner and asserts that, after ma
ture deliberat.on. the body has decided
that the railroads are attempting to name
the ticket which it is absolutely opposed
TO and viii fight to the bitter end The
letter which is given in full below will
be placed in the hands Of each delegate
and, if he can not be reached through
the mails the message viii be laid before
him on the day Of the convention.
Following is the letter:

The origin is unknown. 1t had gained

was summoned and by the time Of their
arrival the entire south side Of the build

There seems to be considerable differ

Of the building the fire did begin. Sev-
eral people who live just south of the
plant say they first noticed the blaze on
the south side of the building. near the
ground, while equally as many say it
began near the roof.

flames sooner, perhaps, than anyone He
quickly turned in an alarm and then

better could be noticed. The steamer from

the first company, when it was found to
what extent the confagration had spread,
the steamer was called. Shortly later
company number three was called on a
third alarm and assisted in the work of

rotten and worthless.
Stewart foreclosed on the stock and

IN the death of Senator Marcus
A. Hanna, which occurred a
Washington last Monday, the re-
publican party has lost one off its
most able and astute~ members.
While Senator Hanna could
hardly have been called a states
man in the broadcast sense which
the term implies, he was never
theless a most sagacious and far
seeing politician and had done
much to advance the interests of
his party, having been recogni-
zed as its official leader since the
death Of James G. Blaine, which
occurred some years since. The
death of Senator Hanna removes
the only rival which Roosevelt
had for the republican presiden-
tial nomination, and that he will
be the choice of his party now
seems a foregone conclusion.

EXPLOSION
OF TorpedoeS at Port Arthur
DemoIishes Cunboat and
Kills the Entire
Grew.

A Dispatch from st. Peters
burg states that the Russian tor
pedo boat Yenezi struck a mine
at Port Arthur and was totally
destroyed, her entire crew num-
bering ninety five men, having
been killed by the explosion.
1t is stated on good authority
that il the war continues to go
against Russia Germany viii step
in and take hand, and in this
event the results will doubtless
be far reaching, as it would prob
ably mean that England would
also be brought in to the struggle.
The belief that Great Britain
may be brought in to the fight is
strengthened by the fact that the
British ship Fuping was fired on
oy the Russians and three mem
oers of the crew wounded. The
Russians afterward ap Iogized for
iriDg on the vessel, but the mat
er was reported to the British /
consul at Wei Hell Wei.
