SUBWAY CLOSES.
Temperance Tavern Opened by
Bishop Potter Last Year
Will Be Operated Hereafter as
a Plain Saloon.
BUSINESS DID NOT PAY
Stockholders Grew Tired OF
Making Up Deficits.
Bartender Says "Rum and Re-
1igiOn Would Not Mix

New York, Aug. 31.-The subway
tavern which was opened eleven
months ago with an address by
Bishop Potter and the singing of the
doxoIogy, closed it's doors at midnight
for the last time as a ''sanctifed sa-
LOOM Today its proprietor will, it is
stated, sign over the place to a man
who has conducted the restaurant on
the premises. The new owner will
take out the water wagon" sign, and
after extensive alterations will run the
place as an ordinary saloon.
While all those connected with the
night were retfcent concerning the
change, several employees in the tav-
ern explained that there had not been
sufficient income from sales to pay
running expenses. Instead of the well
known citizens who established the
tavern drawing a 5 per cent. dividend,
as they expected, it was said that in
the last six months they had been
their pockets to make good a deficit
that they had become tired and
wished to be rid of the tavern en-
tirely.
When the tavern was opened in
October, 1904, it was announced that
only pure liquors would be sold. One
room was fitted up with a soda foun-
tain, where women might be served
with beer. The outer walls of the
building were painted with texts of
scripture and highly colored signs, but
in the words of one of the bartenderS
it was found that rum and religion
would not mix

LETTER OF THE JEWS
Which Was Submitted to Mr.. Witte
by the Committee.

New York, Aug. 31.-What is an
nounced to be the full text of a letter
concerning Russia's treatment of the
Jews submitted to Sergius White, the
Russian peace plenipotentiary, by a
committee of Hebrew bankers and
merchants, is published today by the
American. The communication is
signed by Jacob H. Schiff, Jacob Sc
ligman, Adolph Lewisohn and others.
1t covers thoroughly the arguments
and contentious of the committee who
called on Mr.. White. Civil and po-
Iitical liberty for the Jews. on an
equality with all other Russian sub
jects, is the keynote of the commu-
nication. The letter says:
ut is our very decided conviction
that nothing but the granting of full
civil rights to the Jewish subjects of
the car will entirely remove the con-
ditions which have been the cause OF
so much disturbance in Russia and
adverse criticism abroad. You have
answered US that the Russian Jew in
general is not sufficiently prepared
for the exercise of full civil rights
and that the feeling of the Russian
people is such that the Jew cannot be
placed on an equal footing with them
without causing serious internal dis
orders. and you suggested that il
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1905-08-31

might be advisable and practical
gradually to remove existing disabili-
ties and thus to prepare the way for
an eventual total granting of civic
equality.
LAS to this. we aver that the million
or more Russian Jews who have come
to the United States have become
good citizens, Notwithstanding their
sudden emerging from the greatest
darkness into the most intense day
light of political and civic liberty, and
that they have shown themselves en-
tirely equal to the responsibility
which has been placed upon them as
citizens of this great republic.
1.-THE claim that among the ranks
of those who in Russia are seeking
to undermine governmental authority
there are a considerable number of
Jews may perhaps be true. But it is
safe to assert that, as whole, the
Jewish population of Russia is law
abiding and there is little doubt that
once given civil rights with all the
opportunities which this VIII carry
with it, the Jew in Russia Will be-
come as valuable members OF the
commonwealth and prove to be as
ardent a lover of his country as have
been the Jews of every country
which has accorded them the rights
as citizens"

RED TAPE GIVES OUT.
Some Court Simply Had to Exercise
Jurisdiction Over O'ReiIey.

Ralph O'Reiley the youthful degener-
ate who assaulted Mrs. Richard Bax-
Ter VINO lives near Berryton, was
brought into city court this morning
and he waived his preliminary hearing.
The case was first filed in the city
court and then thrown out as it was
thought that the defendant was under
16 years OF age. A new action was then
brought in the juvenile court, where
the case has been hanging fire for some
time as the authorities at the reform
school Refused to admit him, claiming
that there is no room. In the meantime
the county authorities have learned
from the guardian of the boy that at
the time the crime was committed he
was month over 16 years of age The
case was properly started in the city
court. The case was referred back to
the city court where young O'ReiIey
waived his preliminary hearing and
agreed to plead guilty at the September
term of the district court where he will
then be sentenced to the refermatory
at Hutchinson

Gov. Koch Finally Conducts a
Treasury Examination.
Made Upon Suggestion of Audi
tor Seth Wells.
$547,S79 IS CARRIED.
Funds Lost in First National
ReckOned as Assets.
Distributed Among Various Ac-
counts Although Unavailable.

For the first time in his administra-
ton, Governor Hoch on wednesday
afternoon participated in an examina-
ton of the treasury. It was the last
chance the governor had to make the
August examination, and apparently
he had forgotten about it. The pro-
priety of such an examination was
suggested to him by Auditor Wells at
the meeting of the executive council,
and Governor Hoch acted upon the
suggestion and called the board of
examiners together late in the after
noon.
It was found that there was about
5000 in cash in the treasury vault,
and $685., 900 in uncanceIed warrants.
It was necessary to count the cash and
the warrants, and the board worked
until past 5 o'clock completing the
job.
The $547,S79 which was on deposit
in the First National bank is still car
ried as an asset, though it is of course
not available. This large item is also
carried to the credit of the various
funds where it is supposed to belong.
Hence it is likely that many of the
funds are shown by the examination
to contain more money than they
really do contain.
For example, the general revenue
fund is credited with $559.OoQ, when
as matter of fact the amount in this
fund is only about 100000. Tt is
evident from this that about 100000
of the money which was on deposit in
the First National bank belonged to
the general revenue fund, and the
other $150,000 TO the other funds of
the state. State Treasurer Kelly says
he has made an estimate of the
amount of each fund involved in the
First National crash, but declines to
give out this statement, for the rea-
son that sit is of no interest to the
public"
The examination of the treasury
also showed that Treasurer Kelly is
still carrying deposits in the banks at
Hutchinson, Wichita and Kansas
City. The deposit of $4,000 which
was in the Interstate National at
Kansas City, Kas., has apparently
been withdrawn. The deposit in the
Commercial National at Kansas City
has been reduced one-haIf, and that
of the Merchants National at Topeka
has been materially increased.
The following is the account of the
state cash rendered by the treasury
board as result of Wednesdays ex-
animation:
