TAKE BACK MINES
Mr.. Hurley of Santa Fe Rushes
to Pittsburg.
Purpose to Have Deylin Coal
Properties Transferred.

1t is reported that General Manager
]. E. Hurley of the Santa Fe had a
conference with Charles ]. Devlin
Tuesday afternoon. following which he
ordered out a special engine and car
and went down to Pittsburg, or some
other southern Kansas point, for the
purpose of transferring all the coal
leases to Santa Fe land from Mr.. Dew
lin back to the Santa Fe company.
The details of this rumor could not
be ascertained, owing to the absence of
Mr.. Hurley from town today.
According to reports, it was arranged
between Mr.. Hurley and Mr.. Devlin
that all the Santa F'e coal lands should
be allowed to revert to the Santa F'e,
and that the Santa Fe should continue
their operation. Mr.. Hurley's hasty trip
to Pittsburg was to get the transfer
made prior to the commencement of
bankruptcy proceedings in Topeka.
At the Santa Fe offices today it was
announced that Mr.. Hurley had gone to
Ell PaSo.

THE KING WOULD TALK.
None of His People Shall Take Nor
wegian Throne.

Stockholm, July 5.-An order for
the mobilization of the Swedish army
has been Issued and a proclamation
to this effect will probably be issued
within a week.
The mobilization is intended as a
means of giving added force to any
proposal for settlement which the
special committee appointed by the
Riksdag may make to the Norwegian
Storthing.
King Oscar granted a private audi
ence to the correspondent of the AS
sociated Press at the royal palace.
In a lengthy conversation, he ex-
pressed his views on the present sit
uation and said that he would never
allow any of his sons or grandsons to
accept the Norwegian throne.
In the course of the conversation,
King Oscar reiterated his official ut
terances regarding his position on the
consular bill passed by the Storth-
ing and the events which followed his
veto of it, and said:
when the king of Norway con-
siders that the welfare of the country
demands that he shall veto a bill
do so is Internationally shown In
Norways constitution and he would
be false to his oath if he did not ex-
ercise this right in accordance with
his conscience The constitution gives
the Storthing the power to pass
| measure over my veto, prescribing,
however, that this can only be done
by the bill being passed by three con-
secutively elected Storthings. The
consular bill was only passed by one
Storthing.
LAS king of Norway it was of the
utmost necessity that I should al
ways keep before my eyes the first
article of the Norwegian constitution
which reads: The kingdom of Nor
way is a free, independent, indivisi-
BILE and inalienable country united to
Sweden under one king Therefore
it was imperative before approving a
bill separating the consular systems
of Sweden and Norway that I should
consider the welfare and interests o1
both countries, and had perfect
right as king of Norway to refuse my
| sanction.
"The refusal of the Norwegian
cabinet to countersign my veto was
inexcusable, as the constitution pre-
scribes that the king may decide ac.
ton according to his judgment and
that all his orders must be counter
signed by the cabinet
This is the first interview granted
by King Oscar to any correspondent
The king had been advised not t.
talk for publication and every effor
was made by his encourage to pre-
vent access to him.

NO RELATIVES.
Heads of State Institutions Must
Not Hire Them.
Official Order Made by Board Of
Control Today.

Today a sweeping order was issued
by the new state board of control,
prohibiting the employment in any
state institution of any relation by
blood or marriage, of the superin-
tendent of the institution.
This order is intended primarily to
prevent the wives of some of the sup
erintendents from acting as matrons.
This is the condition which exists at
the state reform school, the Winfield
and dumb school and the blind school
at Kansas City. The matrons get $400
year at most of the institutions, in
addition to their living EXPENSES.
1--WE think it is better said MEM
Der of the board. ''to have some one
else employed as matronS besides the
wives of the superintendents. The
wives of the superintendents ought to
have plenty to do without trying to
manage the duties of matron." Super
intendents are expected to take their
relatives off the pay roll within 80 to
60 days.
The board also notified the super
intendents of the various institutions
that the salaries will be the same in
like positions in all institutions. and
that the Superin CendentS shall not pay
the full amount appropriated by the
legislature when they can get COM
petent help for less. The salaries of
the superintendent will be as fixed liz
the appropriation bill, unless other
wise provided by law.
AS to number of employees, the
board instructS the superintendent to
employ no more than provided for by
the appropriation bill, and not all OF
those if the institutions can be run
with less help.

RIVER WILL Be HIGH.
Mr. Jennings Thinks 1t Won't Reach
Danger Point.

"I think the Kansas river. at To-
peka, will rise until it reaches
height of possibly 20 feet, or there
abouts'' said Director Jennings, of
the government weather bureau this
noon- The danger mark on the gauge
is 21.5 feet The high water mark In
Topeka during the flood two years
ago was far. above this mark, being
20 feet.
"Even if the river reaches such
height, 1 do not think there is cause
for alarm in Topeka. When the sewer
food gates are shut, think there
will be no danger from flood waters.
The high water now in the Kansas
river will not go out before the high
waters of the Smoky Hill and the
Republican rivers come in. Unless
there are very heavy rains later, I
do not think there is any danger. If
four feet the waters from. the Smoky
Hill and Republican rivers would
have brought it UP only to the maxi
mum which had been reached, but
now these waters will increase the
present high water mark"
Only light rains were reported to
the weather bureau today. The rains
of yesterday and last night were:
Baker, .32; Concordia, SO; Fort
Scott, .O2; Mcpherson, .02; Manhat-
tan, 26; Usage City, IA; Sedan, .08;

Today's corn and wheat region re-
port says: "Clear weather prevailed in
western Kansas this morning with
cloudy weather in eastern Kansas and
western Missouri. Showers have oc-
Cured in eastern Kansas and west
ern Missouri. Slightly higher tenn
peratures prevailed yesterday and

STRIKERS ARE SHOT.
CossaclSs Fire on WorI1men at Putielof
Works.

ST. Petersburg, July 5.-Cossacks fired
on the Putieloff works strikers this
morning. The trouble was started by
the arrest of a youth who was entering
the works. The policemen who took
him into custody suspected the young
man of having dynamite in his possess
sion. The latter on being made a pris-
oner drew a revolver and killed the po-
liceman and was himself wounded by
bullet fired by another policeman. The
strikers quickly congregated on the Pc
terhof road and Cossacks were ordered
to disperse them. The soldiers charged,
using their whips, and then fired a vol
ley, causing several casualties among
the strikers The excitement in the dis
trict IS intense.

five days after date; and by the third
bill of exchange, dated June Z, 1905, the
sum OF 1,332.06, thirty-five days after

Your petitioners further represent
that Charles J. Devlin is insolvent

Topeka, Kansas, and the bank exam
iner in charge and the receiver of the

A NEW DECLARATION.
The Prohfbitionists Have Paraphrased
the Old Document

New York, July Sat the prohibition
rallies held throughout the country
new declaration of independence has
been read The document, issued for the
National Prohibition alliance movement,
follows the phraseology of the Declara-
ton of Independence in 1776 The object
of it's arraignment, however, is what it
calls the Impending tyranny of the Ii
quor traffic" and this is the motive for
its appeal to "the patriots of America.
In the last fortnight the appeal has
received the signatures of many men
prominent in the education, professional
and religious world. The intention is
that it shall not be limited to Fourth
of July celebrations but shall have a
prominent place in the prohibition
movement at all times.

RUSSIA'S PRIDE.
That Alone Prevents Her From Asking
for an Arnistice.

ST. Petersburg. July 5.-The situa-
ton regarding the armistice is as fol-
lows:
Russia has formally signified to
President Roosevelt her desire for d
lasting peace, not only by the appoint
ment of plenipetentiaries who will be
accompanied by eminent experts fully
empowered to conclude treaty sub
ject to only the ratification of the re-
spective governments, but as final
step has indicated her readiness to
suspended hostilities- She has avoided
formally asking for an arnlistice as a
matter of pride.

Stupid Base Running Lost Game fol
Douglas.

The game between Douglas and Fifth yes
terday afternoon nearly terminated in an
imitation Of a Chicago strike riot when
Handiboe made what was supposed to be
a home run and was put out at first for
not touching the sack
The Fifth had the best of the batting
fest, scoring ten hits, three of which were
two-baggers. Uselton. in the box for Doug
las, at times was wild and is directly re-
SponSible for three runS-one in the second
and two in the fourth.
In the second inning Hurley led with a
single. stole second and went to third on
Myers throw to second. H. Elicit picked
out four bad ones and walked. With two
men on bases. Uselton made a bad pitch,
on which the two Fifth men scored
In the third Akers led with double
sacker and scored on Handboes misjudg-
ment of S. Woods grounder. The fourth
gave them another run. when H. Elicit
drew base and scored on hits by Spicer
and McQuinn Three more were scored in
the fifth, when Uselton was touched for a
couple singles and two-baggers.
Douglas was able to score twice in the
fourth on a base on balls and an error by
Hurley. Three more came in the seventh,
when Handiboe and Uselton hit for two
bases and Hurley made two more bad ones.
In the eighth Douglas tied the score, and
many thought they won the game. With
two men gone, Myers drew base on balls
and was brought home when USeltOn made
d pcautJ loi tliiec DdStS, anu SCOTtQ On
Draeger's single, tying the score. With
Draeger on first Handiboe made a fearful
long hit in left field. on which Draeger came
in, likewise Handiboe. Had Handiboe
touched all bases as he went by he would
have been credited with home run and
the score would have been to in favor
Of Douglas. Handiboe, in making the cir
cult missed first by six feet. The umpire s
attention being called to the fact the ball
was thrown to first and Handiboe declared
out The fact that Draeger scored on the
play, two men being out, and as Handiboe
virtually never reached first. Draeger's
score did not count.
The umpire. being unable to settle the s.
pute the matter was taken up by The Star
reporter with Mr.. N. e. Young, who ad-
yised that, under the rules, the game was
a tie, DraegerS run not counting for the
reasons above stated.
The Douglas people claimed the game on
the ground that the put-out was made after
the run was scored. But the score being
made on the play. and as Handiboe could
not be credited with hit until he at least
reached first and was retired at first, they
are in error and the final result was a tie.
The score:
