welt, consider 1t as most natural, saying
that nothing prevents n power from Offer
ing AS good offices to beligerent coun-
tries even while the conflict Is going on.
But the more so when negotiations has
been proceeding. However. any offer Of
assistance will not in any way bind either
party.
still there Is no doubt that the action of
President Roosevelt is looked upon. es-
pecially by the Russians as having the
possibility OF changing the situation in
the three days recess from the next
meeting. Great confidence is expressed In
the ability OF Mr.. Meyer in ST. Petersburg
and the influence which in his short So

cognizance of the situation that has
brought about the Equitable Life As

This request was made by w f.

chants association of this city, who

under the interstate commerce law.
Should this course be deemed not prac-
ticabIe, Mr.. King asks the president
to appoint a national commission on
the lines of the coal commission that
settled the anthracite strike to make
an inquiry and report.
s'In case the president decides that
he has no jurisdiction, said Mr.. King

congress in the autumn to start an

president has not the power to make

THE EMPORlA WRECK.
Certain Statements Made duplicating
a Woman Seem Untrue.

Emporia, Kas., May 2O.-Tn CON
nection with an item sent out from
here wherein it was stated that a
Santa Fe detective had secured eyi-
dence which he thought would imnIi-
cate Mrs. Sarah Roberts wife of a
discharged engineer, in the Sunday
wreck, it is now learned that certain
statements are not true and that her
household goods were not attached.
The Gazette says:
In their anxiety to get the news
even the best reporters often make
mistakes. Mr.. Calhoun, a Santa, Fe
detective, said to Gazette reporter
today: I was very much surprised
to read in last nights Gazette that I
was talking to an Emporia woman in
the corridor of the court house about
the wreck. I was talking to an EN-
poria woman in the corridor of the
court house, but the subject of the
wreck was not even remotely men
toned. We do not think that anv
woman was connected with the case.
We certainly do not suspect any par
ticu1ar woman. and if we did I would
not be talking with her in the corridor
of the court house 7 meet many
pleasant women in a social way, and
chat with them on the street, and
do not like to be barred from this
pleasure by having your reporters sus-
pect that my friends are being inter-
viewed in my professional capacitv'
1T was definitely stated today by
F. J. Evans the Santa F'e agent, that
the company was in no way respon-
sible for the attachments of any goods
at their depot Indeed. no household
goods belonging to any Emporia wo-
man have been attached and the Ca
zette was in error in so stating The
goods in question belonged to vo-
man in Denver. This statement is
made in the hope of correcting any
unjust impression that might possiblv
have arisen from yesterdays paper. .

TAXPAYERS sWINDLED.
WrongfulIy Deprived of Property
Worth over Million.

San Francisco. May 2o.-The Chroni-
Gle today says:
A scheme which has been in opera
ton in the tax collectors Office for
many months has Just been uncovered
by which nearly a million and a half
dollars worth of property has been Sc
cured for little more than 100000 The
victims are the city's taxpayers who
are charged in some instances, it ap-
pears wrongly, with delinquencies.
The profits have gone to a ring of tax
scalpers, who were assisted IN every
tax collector, Smith. and his subordin-
ates. Records have been manipulated
to keep the truth from coming out and
many poor people have had the title
to their homes placed in jeopardy,
without so much as knowing that a
shortage is charged against them.
A thorough Investigation VIII be made
at once into the matter, to develop if
possible the extent to which the irregu-
larities have been carried on
