object ought to be to get the approprf-
alton passed and secondly the selec-
ion of a site.
E. A. McInerny said he had seen
that copy of the petition few
minutes previously, and had de-
clined to sign it. He objected to any
commission from Washington ca11.ing
here and deciding whefhar or rot TO
fix up the Young or any other old
building for Federal purposes. The pc
tition reminded him of the feeling here
i just before annexation, when they were
ready to accept annexation on any
terms. 1t looked like asking for a
! Federal building at any price. Any old
| building, either the one they were
meeting in or the present Postoffice
| might be accepted under the terms of
the petition. The matter was out of
their hands entirely. He believed the
question should be considered al a gen
eral meeting. They wanted a building
that would be ornamental. The city
was entitled to something respecta BILE
for it's Postoffice, Custom-house and
Courthouse. More than anything else
they wanted the money for both IL Dor
and material. so far as possible. ex-
pended here. They had just as fine
Hackfeld building. as anywhere in the
United States.
President Smith understood that the
supervising architect of the Treasury
Department, or one of his deputies
was coming out here directly after the
appropriation had been passed.
Mr.. McInerny said the question now
was DO we want the Young building
or do we not?" The United States au-
thorities were bound to have a build
ing here some time. A great many
people did not want that building (the
Young), and he believed they were
right. 1t seemed from the Delegates
cablegram that the people at Wash
ington were just ready to decide that
particular question.
Mr.. Humburg defended he petition,
contending that its main object, as ex-
pressed, was to secure an appropria
ton, leaving the question of building
for decision by the Federal authori-
ties.
F. w. Macfarlane told of his having
sought an interview with E. D. Ten
ney, with the purpose of having the
Chamber of Commerce take some joint
action with the association, so that
there would be no disagreement. He
could not find Mr.. Tenney, but saw
Mr.. Lowrey just as Mr.. Humburg
came in with the petition. They read
it over together and the speaker took
exception right off to the second clause. |
So did Mr.. Lowrey. That clause |
brought into prominence the Young |
building. which they wanted to leave |
out 1t tTsirnrfy passed that proposition |
up to the official architect, with Mr. |
Young and his attorney, Mr.. Pratt, in |

STATE KEEPS OUT OF IT.
Won't Try to Help Ell Dorado Keep
Missouri Pacific Shops.

According to the opinion given to
the board of railroad commissioners
Wednesday by Attorney Carr Taylor
and Attorney General c. c. Coleman,
the board refused to take any action
in the matter of the application of FL
Dorado for an order of the board to
prevent the Missouri Pacific from
moving its shops away from FL
Dorado. The board holds that it has
no jurisdiction, and that the only
remedy for the people Of FL Dorado
is a suit in the courts.
The petition for relief was filed be-
fore the railroad board last July and
has been hanging fire ever since.
The complaint states that in 1887 the
city of FL Dorado gave the St. Louis,
Fort Scott. & Wichita Railroad COM
pany. Of which the Missouri Pacific is
the successor, piece of land valued
at $4,000 and in addition voted bonds
to the amount of $40, 600 to secure the
naming Of the city as a division point
and the erection of shops there
The shops were maintained until
about a year ago with a full force of
about one hundred employees. Then
the railroad company cut down the
force to fifty men and has since sig
nffed its intention of removing the
shODs altogether to some other point,
probably wichita The petitioners
argue that this is a violation of the
contract entered into when the ground
was decided to the railroad company
and the bonds were voted, and asked
the board Of railroad commissioners
to intervene in the matter.

PANIC IN TUNNEL.
Diggers Thought the River Was Com
ing in on Them.

New York, Dec. 2L-Deep under the
East river today a panic occurred in
the Pennsylvania railroad tunnel in
which five workmen were injured, three
OF them seriously. The men thought the
river was coming in on top OF them
when some scanolding near the roof of
the tunnel at a point about 100 feet out
from the shore suddenly collapsed with
out any apparent reason. A gang of
men working near the scanolding start
ed on a run toward the tunnels mouth,
shouting warnings to the diggers VINO
were still further out under the river at
the end of the boring. When the men
were assured that the tunnel had not
-caved in they returned to ind five of
their comrades buried under the scat
folding, two of them injured internally
and another with a fractured skull.
The injured men were taken to the hos
