Postmaster Arrow Received Instruc-
ton From Treasury Department.
Postmaster Geo. J. Arrow has re-
ceiyed the following letter from the
treasury department relative to the
proposed public building for Gaines
vile, which will prove Of interest at
this time:
referring TO the proposals for the
construction OF the building TO be
erected on the site in your custody, re-
ceiyed under advertisement dated No
gember 10, 1904, and opened December
81, 1904, you are advised that in ac-
cordance with the approval OF the de-
partment ell the bids received have
been rejected. the lowest bidder hay-
ing Withdrawn his proposal, on account
OF the alleged mistake in his figures,
and all the other bids being in excess
OF the amount available for the work.
Respectfully,
"J.K. TAYLOR.
Supervising Architect"
In speaking Of the above, Postmaster
Arrow states that this action will in no
way affect the construction OF the
building, but il will now be necessary
to ask for new bids Ia the meantime
our representatives in Congress will
exercise their efforts to secure the de-
sired increased appropriation.

NEWMAN MUST DECIDE
Question of Taxing Illinois Life Securi-
ties Up to Him.

The controversy between the Hi
nois Life Insurance company and the
county authorities, over the taxing of
the 100000 worth of securities de-
posted with the state treasurer. for
1904 and 1906, has taken new tack.
In January County Clerk Newman
notified the Illinois Life that, according
to the provisions of the statutes. he
would hold a hearing to determine
whether this property of the company
should be placed on the assessment
rolls for taxation. This morning
County Clerk Newman notified the
company that the proceedings had
been abandoned and that new pro-
ceedings would be instituted by him.
County Attorney Hungate has given
as his opinion that these funds are not
taxable. The board of county commits
sioners, the board of education and
city council of Topeka have engaged
Judge q. T. Hazen to look after the in
terests of the public organizations and
to appear for them in the legal con-
test to have the securities taxed.
There is no appeal from the decision
of County Clerk Newman. He will
decide whether the $1,000,0O0 valua-
ton, which the assessed valuation for
the two years would amount to, shall
be placed on the tax rolls. If he de-
cides that these securities are taxable
they will be placed on the tax rolls.
Then the Illinois Life can only get into
the courts by an injunction to prevent
collection.

STAMPEDE FOR WORK.
Many Striking Transfers Are Given
Employment.

Chicago. July 21.-Teamster strikers
who last night gave up their long strug-
gle against the employers broke ranks
today in stampede for work. The
barns of the strike affected firms were
-besieged by men who have been idle for
months and whose places have been
filed by nonunion men. The employers
in many cases announced that there
were vacancies for only a Few. OF more
than 1000 men who quit not more than
/, 400 or 1,500 will be reinstated during
the next few days. The coal teamsters
and truck drivers did not join in the
rush for Unemployment today.
The order of the teamsters' joint coun-
ell which authorized the surrender was
for all men on strike to ask for rein
statement this morning. Both the truck
drivers and the coal 1eamsters baked
at this and planned to hold meetings to-
night and fight it out till they can GO
back to work like union men," However,
the boycott against business houses has
been lifted officially by the action of
the council and it is expected there will
be no more sympathetic strikes of team

M. WITTE IN PARIS.

Paris, July 21. ASS p. nm.
Witte, accompanied by his wife, sew
eral members of his family and a
number of officials making up the
United States. arrived at the Northern
railroad station at 4 O'Clock. A large
number of French and. Russian Off
cials and members of the diplomatic
corps were assembled at the station,
including Ambassadors Nelidoff and
Cassini NJ. Mollard, chief of the pro-
tocol department of the foreign office,
and Police Prefect Lepine.
AS NJ. Witte descended to the plat
form his massive frame lowered above
the crowd which pressed forward to
welcome him. Standing bareheaded,
M. Witte was greeted by NJ. Nelidoff
and Count Cassini and spoke for
some moments with the latter. Mr..
NeIidoff afterwards advised NJ. Witte
of the plans to present him to Presi-
dent Loubet and Premier Rouvier,
probably tomorrow.

The Temps gives prominence to an
interview with NJ. Witte which a cor
respondent had during the trip to Paris
The interview follows almost textually
the interview which the Associated
Press at st. Petersburg had with the

duty to submit to NJ. Witte the text OF
the declarations made by him to the
correspondent of the Associated Press
and reprinted in the Temps. After hav-

LONG STRIKE ENDS.
Chicago Teamsters Surrender Uncon-
ditionalIy and Declare 1t on.

Chicago, July 20.-The teamsters'
strike which has so greatly disturbed
business conditions in this city for the
last one hundred and five days was at
1890 o'clock last night officially declared
off by the members of the teansters' joint
council. The men have been ordered to
seek their old positions, and it is esti-
mated that less than one-half of them
will be re-employed. The strikers have
made a complete surrender and will ap-
ply for work as individuals and without
an agreement of any kind with their
employers. The action of the teamsters'
joint council was taken at the end of a
day whose events clearly foreshadoWed
the collapse of the strike. Three of the
unions already voted to return to work
as far as possible and it was certain
the union which had not voted on the
question of ending the strike would
take similar action. The council believ-
ing that further effort was useless de-
cided to call off the strike at once.

WAGON BRIDGE GONE.

Joplin, Mo-, July 21.-The food waters
of Spring river reached the big dam at
Lowell, Kan, early today, and with all
the flood gates open the water raised
within two feet of the top of the dam.
The gauge showed 2S feet of water. Half
a mile above the dam the water broke
out of the banks and flooded Stark, a
little village, with three feet of water.
The wagon bridge across the river at
Lowell was washed away and the bridge
of the Frisco road is expected to go at
any time. Good telephone service along
the river provided an opportunity to
warn people residing in the lowlands
and they sought safety on higher land.
So far only one death is reported, Calvin

sive I most carefully considered that
question. I took the best and wisest
counsel on that point, and I think that
if anything, I placed the amount too
small. The old law required a bond
of $1,0OO,000, which Mr.. Kelly gave
the first of this year. He did not then
complain that it was excessive. Nor
did he urge that the treasurer of the
United States gave only $150,0O0 bond.
So far as know no one ever claimed
that a million was excessive The
new law imposes new obligations and
shall give aonther bond. The addition
al hazard to the state consists in Sc
curities which the banks deposit in the
treasury. 1t has been said in inter-
views that these securities can be rem
dered non-negOtiable. This is not the
law, and I think it Is unreasonable to
suppose that a banker would mar a
bond placed on deposit with the state
treasurer by making 1t non-negotiable.
No banker would want to do this.
Moreover, the law is not explicit as to
the time when the treasurer shall de-
posit the money which he receives. I
think that at times there might be half
a million dollars in the hands of the
treasurer needing the protection of a
bond.
Kelly Ignored the Demand.
''On the 6th of July, after the fail
ure of the Devlin bank, and the con-
sequent failure of one-half of the
treasurer's old bond, I made a written
demand that the bond defaulted be
repaired. I thought it reasonable
demand I thought that if the state
at the start, it was entitled to it at all
other times in the term.
