TOPEKA, Kas., Jan. l6.-A resolu-
ton asking Senator Burton to resign,
was introduced in 1.-THE Kansas house
and senate this afternoon. Cyrus Lee
land, the leader of the deposed repub-
lican faction of Kansas and a member
of the house, is the. author of the reso-
luton. The matter will come up for
consideration tomorrow. An effort
will be made to table it on the ground
that the case of United States Senator
Burton is yet before the courts, and
therefore he is not the subject fol
legislative action. The Leland reso
| luton recites that the decision of thu
United States supreme court today, il
the Burton case deprives Burton o
his usefulness as a representative o
the state of Kansas in the Unite,
States senate.

YALE COMMERCIAL MUSEUM.

The First One of its Kind Established With Federal Help.
 Yale is to have commercial museum, the first of its kind in any American university.
 According to announcement just made, the new institution will be a working laboratory in connection with courses now offered in commercial ge- ography by Professors Keller and Greg ory. It is made possible by the inter- est taken in the plan by the United States government.
 The department of agriculture has granted Yale the valuable collection shown at the Portland exposition, to which large additions have been made both by the department and the Cana dian Pacific railroad. There have also been received the collections from Alas ka, Porto Rico and Hawaii shown at Portland, and exhibits of grains from the Canadian Northwest.
 The new museum forms part of Yale's laboratory work in the proposed cooperative Yale and Columbia colo nial school for consular aspirants and persons assigned to government service in the Orient.
