JULY DEFICIT LARGE.
Government Expeditures viii Exceed
Receipts by $1s,6sO, 900.

Washington, July SL-The monthly
statement of the government receipts
and expenditures which will be issued
by the treasury department on August
will show the receipts for July, 1905,
to have been approximately $40, ,1S0, 600
and the expenditures about $62, 1860, 600,
leaving a deficit for the month of $13,-
6S0,o00 The deficit last July was $17.-
300, 600
There were no extraordinary receipts
or expenditures in July, 1904, and none
will appear in the figures for the pres
ent month. This decrease of about 3d.
500 900 in the deficit for this month as
compared with that for July, 1904, is
accounted for by the material increase
in the receipts, particularly from Gus
toms, and a slight decrease in expendi-
lures.
The receipts from customs alone will
exceed those for July last year by about
81, 600, 900. Those from internal revenue
sources will probably exceed those of
a year ago by about $500,o0 The re-
ceipts this month will include a pay
ment of about s., 100000 from the South
ern Pacific Railway company on ae-
count of its thirteenth semi-annual
note due the government on August 1.
There was a similar payment from this
company last July. The treasury Off
cials regard the showing this month
with satisfaction and point to the 81.
600, 900 increase in customs receipts as
an indication of large increase in busi-
ness during the remainder of the year

THAT PIANO CONTEST"
How Innocent Parties Are Deceived
Into Working for Nothing.


The Capitafs platte contest Tor the
most popular young woman in Topeka
closed last night at O'Clock after a
day of exceptionally heavy voting with
Miss Dollie Curtis in the lead with
242,415 votes.
The largest number of votes cast at
one time was 119,345 which was the
number turned in by Miss Curtis at 6
clock yesterday afternoon. Miss Cur
tis was not working for the piano for
herself, but entered the contest with
the avowed intention of giving the
piano, in case she won it, to the North
Topeka Baptist church.-Topeka Cap
ital July 80, 1905.
The State Journal exposed this
Contest and pointed out the winner
three weeks ago in the following COM
munication from Subscriber to both
papers"
To the Editor of the State Journal
1 have been more or less interested
in the schemes of your morning con-
temporary and especially in the "giv-
ing away of pianos bought in another
town. The piano bunco game by which
the street railway conductors worked
themselves out of their jobs by forcing
money from the patrons of the city
railway to use in replenishing the sub
scription fund of the Capital was bad
enough, but the present scheme by
which an effort is made to induce the
young ladies Of Topeka to become
solicitors for that paper without com
pensation is the climax of business
duplicity. If you will notice the stand
ing of the various contestants you Will
see that a certain young lady who has
promised to give the instrument to a
church nearly always stands first, sec
ond or third, generally just few votes
behind the leader, although she has
been given first place two or three
times. This is done to keep up the
interest in the contest" and to make
the other deluded young women think
that they have chance to win, thus
squirting them to further interest in
behalf of the morning bunco organ
The fact is that this young lady has
by sending out cards to politicians ac-
quired between $4,000 and 100000
votes which are being held to be used
as needed. BY having them ali record
ed at once the other contestants would
simply be overwhelmed and they
would no longer continue to apply to
their friends for financial assistance on
| behalf of the Capital, which must in
deed be in dire straits to resort to such
a confidence game

Tomorrow we are even promised
slightly cooler day.

SILVER LAKE MYSTERY.
Man Killed by Train Appears to Have
Been With Murdered Victim.

A new complication has arisen in the
Silver Lake killing, which occurred last
Thursday night or Friday morning.
Joseph Hopkins, a farmer living near
Rosaviile, saw the unknown dead man
Thursday evening in company with the
tramp who was killed by Union Pa
cific passenger train east of Topeka Fri
day evening. Hopkins came to Shella-
barger,s morgue to see If he could iden-
tify the dead man, and after seeing the
body and stating that he had seen the
man between Rossville and Silver Lake
in company with a short man, was
shown the mangied remains of the other
corpse.
Mr.. Hopkins at once said: This man
was with the other when I saw him.
There can be no nistake-I can tell by
his face and his short legs The short
legs of the man killed east of Topeka
| were a noticeable feature, and amoaznt-
ed almost te a deformity.
There is some belief among the Off
GERS that the short man killed the man
found near Silver Lake, and was a day
later himself killed by a passenger
train. Neither of the dead men has
| been identified.
Henry Struble and Will McLoud, two
| graders who are employed on the q. p.
cutoff north of Silver Lake, are in the
county jail under suspicion of having
| killed the stranger, but Sherifk Lucas
| does not believe they are guilty. Their
arrest and detention was the result of
|
\ intoxicated. They hinted freely that
| they knew something about the dead
man and who killed him, but they have
! denied any such knowledge since their
\ arrest.
! Station Agent Davis of Menoken came
to Topeka Saturday night and positive
| ly identified the Silver Lake dead man
as the tramp who had borrowed a lead
pencil of him to write a note Thursday.
afternoon.
HE came in hurriedly and asked to
borrow a pencil" said Mr.. Davis, .sand
| 1 let him use mine. 1t was blue In
de1ible pencil, such as the note was
written with. He wrote something on
4 a piece of paper and went away, after
returning the pencil. He seemed to be
| in hurry"
/ The case is one of the most myster-
ious that ever came before the OFFICERS
of this county. All the outer indications,
such as the writing of the note, the
borrowing of the pencil for the purpose
and the fact that the body was not
robbed, point to suicide, followed by the
! theft of the revolver by some passing
tramp. On the other hand, the autopsy
showed that the man had been shot in
| the head with two different sized re-
volvers, two bullets from a 38 and one
from 80 calibre weapon being found in
the brain. The physicians who per-
formed the autopsy decided that any
one of the bullets would have caused
instant death and prevented a suicide
from firing even a second shot.
