BRADLEY To STAY
Formally Appointed Permanent
Receiver of First National.
Believed That Depositors Are
Pleased With Selection.

J. 7. Bradley, temporary receiver OF
the First National baAk, was today no.
titled of his appointment as permanent
receiver by T. P Kane, deputy and
acting comptroller of the currency at
Washington. Mr.. Bradley is not in the
city, having returned to his home at
Sedan for over Sunday and will not ar
rive in Topeka until sometime Tuesday
morning. The depositors were notified
here through the executive committee
which received a. telegram from Mr..
Kane addressed to Sam Radges. The
telegram sent follows3 Your letter of
the 18th received. Have decided to con-
tinue Bank Examiner Bradley as re-
-ceiver of the: First National bank and
have so notified him. Hope this action
will prove to the best interests of all
creditors
Mr.. Radges when asked if the ap-
pointment met with approval said: Il
can only speak personally when 1 say
that the selection is a happy one. That
it will do away with all this political
jangle for the place which has been
going on and insure q management di-
-VOrced from politics. l think that MI.
Bradley probably better than anyone
else is better versed with the condi-
ton of affairs from his having been
connected with the questions which
have arisen from the first, since the
banks failure. I am entirely satisfied.
There is no question but in the main
the appointment will be received with
favor by the creditors. Those who have
had dealings with Mr.. Bradley have
found him affable and complaisant to
the degree that his instructions permit
ted. The appointment of Mr.. Bradley to
the place of permanent receiver Will
mean the vacancy of his Office OF bank
examiner which he now holdS% This
will mean scramble on the part of the
politicians.
The creditors had asked the comptrol-
Ter to keep politics out as far as possi-
BILE in his selection of a receiver and II
is believed that politics had very little
to do with Mr.. Bradley's selection.
Others who had been mentioned for
the position were: J. G. Slonecker, Jas.
Troutman, Edwin Knowles, G. ..
Knowles and Cyrus Leland. Mr.. Le-
land went to Troy, Kan, on a business
trip Sunday and will not return until
this evening, accordingly things are
quiet about the headquarters of the re-
ceivers of Mr. Devlin's property.

GO-BETWEEN DEAD.
Man Who Managed Panama Canal
Bribery Commits Suicide.

Paris, July 17.-Emile Arton, one of
the principal founders in the old Pana-
ma canal. was found dead in his apart
ments this morning under elrcum-
stances indicating suicide
Arton was sentenced in 1896 to eight
years Imprisonment for completely
with Baron de Reinach and DR.. Corne-
Illus Herr in the frauds of the Panama
Canal company. Arton was the inter-
mediary between Baron de Reinach
and the incriminated French deputies,
that is between the briber and the
bribed. Arton wrote the checks and
had the check book on whose stubs
was recorded the guilt of about 140
politicians. He alone possessed the
secrets of the bribery. When the
crash came in 1892. Arton disappeared
and with him went about $740,00O OF
the funds of the French dynamite So
ciety with which Arton was associated.
In his absence he was sentenced on
the charge of trying to bribe a deputy
to five years imprisonment. and to
twenty years Imprisonment for his
connection with the dynamite society.
Arton was finally captured in London,
and taken to France but was pardoned
in 1899.
De Reinach committed suicide and
Herr, after seeking refuge in England
died there in 1898.

STRIKE WILL GO ON.
Michael DonneIIy Knocked SenseIess
by Rioters.

Chicago, July 17.-Both the railway
express and the department store driV-
ers having voted to continue the strug-
GLE union leaders predicted today that
the teamsters strike would be prolong-
ed until after the convention of the
InterpationaI Brotherhood of Teamsters,
which opens in Philadelphia August Z.
A serious riot was narrowly averted
last night between a number of union
and nonunion teamsters. Nearly
hundred of the nonunion teamsters who
have taken the places of the strikers
have been living in the vicinity of un-
ion headquarters. When the union men
were leaving bricklayers' hall they en-
cOuntered some of the nonunion drivers.
A fight followed Immediately. The nom
unlontStS were getting the worst of it,
but reinforcements were sent for, and
a general fight was soon in progress.
Clubs anl bricks were being used in
discriminatory, and several shots were
fired, and the police who had been
summoned when the trouble commence
ed, arrived in time to prevent bloodShed.
1t was necessary to make several ar
rests, however, before the opposing fac
tions could be separated. Another dis
turbance was furnished by the delegates
to a meeting of the Chicago Fedora ton
of Labor Dissat tisfaction over the
manner in which the election of Off
GERS of the fedora ton was being car
ried on brought about the trouble. Dur
ing the disturbance revo1vers were
brought into play and the ballot boxes
We're destroyed. Michael Donnelly, pres
ldent of the Amalgamated Butchers
Union of America, was severely beaten
by the strikers and was taken uncon-
scious from the hall. Many other per-
sons were cut and bruised, but Don
nelly was the only one who received
serious injury. 1t was necessary to call
the police to restore order before the
voting could be resumed

SINNER HAS A WAY.
Would Make Drainage District to Pro-
tect South Topeka.

Councilman ]. c. Sinner filed with
the board of county commissioners to-
day a petition for a drainage district to
be formed out of Keith's addition, Wal
nut Grove, a part of Ladies' addition
and on to the city limits south and east,
for the purpose of controlling the flood
waters of Shunganunga creek
The petition is signed by los property
owners and is brought under the new
drainage law which provides for the
forming OF drainage districts and the
election of district commissioners. The
purpose is to build dykes along the
creek and to cut a new channel from
Van Buren street to Kansas avenue and
from Madison street to Twentieth street
The commissioners do not wish the fair
grounds included in the district, as is
contemplated by the petition but wish
to have the fair grounds kept out if
the district will accept a donation of
$500 from the county toward the work.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

st. Petersburg.
The Gar Is Not Quite Certain
Where He Stands.

st. Petersburg, July 1.-THE Novoe
Nremya today prints the following
statement of Russia's position which
may be inspired:
Russia can consent Cnly to such d
peace as will not affect the dignity or
vttaIinterests of the empire. act other
wise would be fatal to Russia ana
would threaten all Europe. Europe no
longer believes in Japan's assurance
that she will not restrict European in
Lerests III the far east. Ever in Eng
land and America the voices Of moral
instigators -tan be heard in favor OF
the indirect interference of the powers
to moderate Japan's demands. Oar
plenipotentiaries must remember that
they must defend the interests not only
of Russia, but also of the other Cau-
casian powers and they will find moral
support in Berlin, Paris. Washington
and perhaps even in London. Our army
in the field is much. stronger than it
was Is months ago.
THE Hamburger Nachrichten pro-
poses that Europe intimate to Japan
that extra demands will be resisted by
Europe in general, especially Germany
This is valuable statement. we
must ascertain the acceptable maxi
mum Of our concessions to Japan from
the European point of view and act ac-
cordingly."
