CLEAN 1T OUT.
Order Issued to New Head of Stats
tical Bureau.

washington, July 1S.-Assistant Sec
rotary of Agriculture Hayes has taken
hold of the affairs of the bureau of sta
tistics, with instructions from Secretary
Wilson, approved by President Roose-
welt to cleanse the bureau of the stig-
ma left by the cotton leak scandal. His
authority is unlimited. 1t is likely there
will be a complete reorganization of the
force employed in the statistical depart
ment. Secretary Wilson said that here
after if there are accusations against
the integrity of the bureau it must be
directed against himself or Assistant
Hayes, as he has no intention of allow
ing any other persons access to infor
nation that might be used in stock job
bling.
Mr.. Hayes probably will be in charge
of the bureau until after congress as
sembles, as it is believed a competent
man to take the place of Mr.. Hyde who
resigned yesterday cannot be had for
the salary paid by the government,
So, 500 a year. Congress will be asked to
increase the salary.
A rumor has been circulated that
when congress assemblies a movement
will be started to have the crop gather
ing bureau transferred to the depart
ment of commerce and labor, in order
to insure a more complete reorganiZa-
ton. Senator Dolliver of Iowa, a warm
personal friend of Secretary Wilson, is
slated for the Craftsmanship of the COM
mittee on agriculture. He is opposed to
any charge of the character suggested.

BURGLARS AT GYPSUM CITY.
Break Into a Half Dozen Stores-Twc
Suspects Captured.

Gypsum City, Kan, July 19.-Gypsum
City was furnished an unusual sized
bunch of excitement in the early morn
ing. A number of burglars got in their
work at that time and succeeded in
breaking into nearly a dozen stores be-
fore they were scared away.
The list of stores broken into is as
follows: The Gypsum Cooperative as
ISOLATION; the Fair store: Manning's
hardware store; Schmitters drug store;
Wards hardware store; McDaniePs sa-
loon. The burglars were at work try
ing to enter Banks hardware store
when they were chased away.
Several men saw the burglars prowl-
ing about and later saw them trying to
enter Banks hardware. They fired sew
eral shots at the burglars which latter
gentlemen Immediately concluded that
the town was too warm and left.
They succeeded in getting $40 in cash
from the Schmitter drug store. At j.
E McDaniels' place they got away with
about $25 worth of wet goods. At daye
light empty bottles and jugs were found
living back of the saloon which showed
that the robbers must have disposed of
the refreshments very lavishly among
themselves then and there. This proba-
bly, took some time and possibly saved
some of the other stores in Gypsum
from being broken into.
Two suspicious looking characters
who the police think did the deed, have
been arrested.

McNeal has bought $4,65s.ss worth
of paper and other material, which
under the old system of buying would
have cost the state $5,563.76. a saw
ing on purchases made during the
first month of state ownership of
$905.SS, or nearly 25 per cent.
at is hardly to be supposed" says
Mr.. McNeal. that we can save that
much on all orders. but there is no
doubt that the aggregate saving will
be very large"
For printing and binding material
the legislature has appropriated for
the ensuing two years the sum of $45,-
900, and if the state is able to do
approximately as well in its buying as
it has been doing, it will save $1,000
on that amount of purchases.
In addition to the probable $1,000
saving in the cost of material, the state
will save all the profits of the state
printer, which have been generally
estimated at about $4,000 year. In
the course of two years this would
mean a saving of $4,000, or there
abouts, and at the same time the state
would be getting practically the same
amount of printing that it has always
had.

JUST RATES TO ALL.
The Only Way in Which Freight Rate
Problem Can Be Settled.

Toledo, July 19-"The welfare of the
railroads and the welfare of the people
of this country depends on an early and
a fair and just settlement of the rate
problem, There may be a compromise
but there cannot be a compromise Of
principle. The law calls for fair and
just rates to all, and that is the only
settlement on which the people will
make an agreement" So spoke Con-
gresham Chas. E. Townsend of Michi-
gan to the members of the National
Hay association in convention here.
Here is case that came before US
last year. 1t is possible to ship 100
pounds of cotton goods from Chicago to
Boston for $1.25. A shipment of the
same from Chicago to Salt Lake City
costs 80. A shipper would be saving
money by sending his goods from Bos-
ton to San Francisco and then to Salt
Lake City. He could do it cheaper.
There are two parties to the freight
rate contract, the railroads and the
people. The trouble in the past has
been that Judges held the individual
and the corporation as equals. This is
wrong in my opinion. The railroads
have been given power to condemn prop
erty for their right of way to force you
to sell out. They have even been given
land. They have the better of the in
dividual in almost every way"

HE HELD UP FIVE MEN.
After Being Robbed They Ran Him
Down and Caught Him.

Omaha, July ia man giving his
name as Frank Leonard of Peoria, ILL.,,
held up and robbed five men in drug
store at Twenty-fourth and Seward
streets, taking several hundred dollars
in money and jewelry from them. He
backed out of the drug store and the
five gave chase. A running fight fol-
lowed, during which the highwayTnan
fired five shots at his pursuers without
effect. They hurled bricks and other
missiles at the fleeing man, finally cap
turing him. A hand-to-hand fight en-
sued when they came up to Leonard, in
which Frank Brandle, from whom the
robber had taken a diamond and some
money was badly beaten on the head
with a revolver. Leonard was beaten
into Inconsistencies and carried back
to the drug store and later taken to
Jail by the police. He may not recover.

PAID $4,000 FOR BOOK
Price Mrs. c. p. Huntington Was
Charged by Able

New York, July 19.-The books of
the Town Topics insofar as they deal
with the book on American society en-
titled "Fads and Fancies,'' which was
sold by subscription and on which the
publishers realized approximately
100000, will be examined by repre-
sentatives of the district attorneys Of
flee, no matter what opposition is
made to the step. This announcement
was made by Assistant District At
torney Cans after he had a conference
with Assistant Krotel, who is In
charge of the tpvestiga ton of the af-
fair which is befng mades
krotel came into the case when he
was assigned to prosecute Charles H.
Able, who was arrested on complaint
of Edwin NJ. Post, who charged that
Able attempted to blacl1mail him, Post
declared Able attempted to force him
to subscribe $500 for book on New
York society. He alleged that Able
told him that a scandal6us story in
volving his name was in possession of
a New York weekly paper but that it
would not be published if Post would
subscribe for the book. The money
was paid. Ef
Several prominent persons have an
nounced their willingness to join with
Mr.. Post in the prosecution. Their
willingness to appear is conditional.
however, on the district attorney
promising that no question shall be
asked them concerning stories which,
they allege Able mentioned, when he
solicited their subscriptions.
When Mr.. Krotel examined the books
of the Town Topics company" he was
refused permission to inspect some of
the entries having to do with the book
''F'ads and Fancies." He learned,
however. he said, that while the reg
ular subscription price for the book
was $1,000, several persons paid
larger sums. Among those was Mrs.
Coils p. Huntington, widow of the
multimillionaire railroad promoter
who was credited with paying $4,000
for her subscription copy of the book.
Mr.. Krotel said today that if it is pos
sible to reach Mrs. Huntington she will
be asked to testify as to the condition
under which she paid more money
than the regular subscription price.
