The German-American

The German-American milI is pounding away steadily on good ore. The deal by which they obtained the water of the Blue Ridge company as- sures them abundance of water for all purposes, but it will be but a short time until their own mines will be produc- ing volume of water sufficient for all purposes. The ore now being sent to the mill is said to carry big values in gold and the saving is rather high.

BRING Them TOGETHER
Commercial Club Takes steps to Help
Local Enterprises.

The Commercial club last night took
a stand in regard to aiding local con-
Germs which need financial help and at
the same time investors who want good
reliable places in which to place their
money.
During the past few years quite a
number of requests have been received
from outside capitalists to give them 4
list of Topeka business concerns which
want financial aid. These men wanted
good positive assurance that they were
putting their money into good places, in
which the operators were reliable. On
the other hand there have been Topeka
concerns which needed money to enlarge
their business with. The point taken by
the Commercial club last night was to
form some sort Of an active agency by
which these two may be brought to-
gether.
Hereafter whenever an investor writes
to Topeka for opportunities, his request
will be given to the secretary of the
Commercial club. VINO win return tohim
all places in Topeka needing capital.
and a full. detailed account of their af-
fairs. These will be absolutely bona fide
and vouched for by the Commercial
club.
The following card will be printed
and sent out to capitalists and also to
local concerns:
The Topeka Commercial club has
frequent calls from the manufacture
ing ana business INDUSTRIES OF Lie Guy
for additional financial aid in handling
their business, either through invest
ments in corporation stock or a direct
partnership interest.
1t is the purpose of the club to
bring the investor and parties needing
money into close communication. If
parties living in Topeka or out of To-
peka who have money to invest in
small or large amounts will send their
name and address to the secretary of
the Commercial club, they will be
brought into communication with par
ties and furnished with detailed in
formation as to the character of the
Investment. Nothing but Topeka in
vestments will be recommended and
none of these will be considered un-
less they are bona fde business prOpO-
sitOns that will bear the closest in
vestigation. Respectfully,
c. K HOLIDAY, President.
T. J. ANDERSON, Secretary.

Bank Note Stopped.


A man who walked into the Bank of
England the other day and laid a f1O
note on the counter was surprised to
hear the clerk say: I'VE can't cash
this. The note was stopped twenty
three years ago."
Over twenty years back the note
was stopped by a clerk then in the
employ of one of the provincial
branches of the London and County
bank. It had been brought in by an
employe of one of the banks clients
in order to be paid into the clients ac-
count. with some loose change. BY a
strange oversight the clerk, after jot-
ting down the number of the note and
after counting the change, omitted to
take the bank note. When he discov-
cred his error, note and messenger
had disappeared. Neither was seen
again.
The clerk took counsel with a col
league at the counter, and for the
sake of their own prospects the two
young men determined to say moth
ing about the affair, but to bear the
loss themselves. Each paid f5 to
make good the loss. and stopped the
number.
The man who presented the note for
payment the other day had found it
among the papers of his father, who
had recently died
+--@ clerks instrumental in
stopping the note were traced, and

the London and County bank long ago,
each has received back his f5 after
the lapse Of twenty-three years.-Lon-

Released on Bond Which They VIII
Forfeit as usual.

Robert Blanchard and George
Thomas, the two men who have been
confined in the city Jail for a week
on a charge of picking the pocket of
an old man on one of the Santa Fe
trains, were released this morning on
a five hundred-d dollar bond each,
signed by H. A. Hodgins This prob
ably means they will never be tried.
It is their way of escaping.
There is little doubt that the pair
belong to an organized band of pick
pockets who have been plying their vo-
cation on the lines of the Santa Fe
railroad running out of Kansas City.
One of the Santa F'e special men who
knows them is very indignant over the
fact that they have been turned loose
and ventures the prediction that they
viii not show up for trial and that
their bond viii be declared forfeited.
This has been their method in the past.
Members of the gang who are free
arrange for the bond by placing a cash
deposit and securing a bondsman in
this way and that is the last to be
be heard Of the men arrested.

GARFIELD ON GRAFT.
Commissioner of Corporations Ad-
dresses the Hardware Makers.

Washington, Nov. 11.-Commis-
sioner of Corporations James r. Gar
field, in an address at a banquet OF
the Hardware Manufacturers associa-
ton here last night discussed the
questions of graft IN the government
and commercial Industrial evils
You have heard that graft in the
government is rampant" he said.
This must not be taken lightly. 1t is
true that there are things in the fed
era1 government that are wrong, but
when you compare them with things
that are gone you will find them in
comparable. Things are wrong in
private business affairs as well as in
the public affairs. We should not at
tempt to apply a remedy before we
know what the disease it. The in
qUiry conducted by this bureau into
means that the federal government is
the sovereign of all the people and has
a right to protect one man against the
alliance of Others
The speaker stated that the prob
lens now are as mighty and important
as ever our foFefathers had to con-
tend with. On every hand we are
confronted with commercial nd indus
trial evils. ITO attempt to rem edy
them is useless, unless. the blow be
aimed at their root" he said. "tAt
present it is impossible to effect any
permanent cure: only penalties can be
imposed where the wrongs are discov-
cred. If you. my friends, are to have
the advantages of corporate formation,
you must submit your affairs to the
sovereign of creation. Let the people
know who you are and with whom
they are dealing. The government can

TAFT OVER WORKED.
1t Is Proposed to Give the Philippines
Over TO Root.

washington, Nov. 11.-An echo Of the
suggestion that the Isthmian canal shall
be placed under the state department has
been heard in a rumor of the possibility
that the fnsular bureau which grew up
under the direction of Secretary Root
when he vas at the head of the war de-
part1rent may be transferred to the state
department.
Discussion Of the matter has not taken
any concrete form, but it is one of the
suggestions made eto relieve the secretary
of war of heavy responsibilities which
now rest upon him in administering not
only the affairs of the army, but the
Philippines. the Panama canal and other
island interests.
It is argued that Secretary Roots past
familiarity with the Philippines will en-
able him to take up the work which has
been carried on by Secretary Taft It
would take legislation to bring about the
change, as thss insular bureau was legis-
lated into the war department when the
Philippine government bill was passed.

The Future Of the Telephone.

Ihe blgneSS OF Lne LeIepnOne inter-
ests, present and prospective, of this
country, is certainly best understood
by the engineers. These men of fig
ures and forecasts, whose ery-day
speech abounds in references to loads,
insulations, and relays, have, as is well
known magnificent ideas as to the fu-
ture of the industry they are building
up. Already they are basing their es-
Inmates of necessary construction upon
a probable twenty per cent develop
ment within the next two or three de-
cades-a prediction which means in
everyday speech, that by 1890 or 1885
there should be, if the present rate of
expansion continues, one teleph one for
every five people in the United States,
or, as it has been otherwise expressed. a

MILAN IN TOLLS.
Police Think They Have Murderer of
John DahIgreen.

The officers who are investigating the
murder Of John Dahlgreen, the harmless
inebriate who was found dead in the
basement Of the Office block Friday
morning, have centered their suspicious
on Walter McLain. the negro fireman,
and Charles Lindenschmidt, a member
of the white horse" gang. The negro
has changed his story several times
since he first told It, and the officers be-
lieve that he killed Dahlgreen by strik-
ing him over the head with an old chair
McLain's last statement is that he
found Dahlgreen when he opened the
place in the morning, and assisted by
Lindenschmidt, laid the body on the pile
of coal where it was found by the OIL
GERS. Underestimate denies any such
proceedings. The actions of McLaln at
the time when the officers first came to
the basement Friday morning are also
considered suspicious. McLain started
to leave after the officers had told him
to remain while they were making an
investigation, and one policeman point
ed a revolver at him before he consent
ed to sit down and remain. Pieces of
a broken chair were found about the
room, and some OF them bore marks
thought to be blood.
All Of the members of the white morse
brigade arrested as suspects were releaS-
ed this morning excepting McLalls som
mertot and Underestimate SherlIf LUCAS lucas
is sure that he has the asSallanL OF the
murdered mai in one or all OF the men
Tow under arrest
Underestimate has made q number of
contradictory statements, but has finally
admitted that he saw Dalhlgreen the
night that lie was murdered and that he
saw McLain carry him to the coal pile
upon which he was found. but says he
did not assist in any way. He insists that
Dahlgreen did not show any signs of the
beating which caused his death when he
as placed on the coal heap. The place
where ethe LOdy was found has been the
home of the white horse" brigade for
ten years.
