Gov. HOch's Assistant Attorney
Apparently Discouraged.
ONLY TWO WARRANTS.
W. II. Mechanism Overwhelmed
by Odds Against Him.
Wagons Deliver Beer Within a
Block of His Office.
Claim Made That One Hundred
Liquor Dives Are Selling.

Kansas City, kan, Nov. S--The
brewers who own nearly all of the
Joints" in this city, are growing weary
of their task of enforcing the law The
public officials have given them very
little assistance in closing the Joints"
and the men who operate the Joints"
have been so unmanageabIe that the
brewers are becoming discouraged
Proof of this is found in the asser-
ton of jointkeepers that they are able
to get all the beer they need for the
trade" Wagon loads of beer are be-
ing delivered to some of the "joints,"
which are doing a lively business.
The jointkeepers say they have assur-
ances from the police they will not be
disturbed in their violations of the city
ordinances and state law. Neither the
county attorney nor W. H. Mechanism,
the assistant attorney general, are is
suing any warrants.
The brewers have tied the hands of
the officials so that little can be ac-
eomplished along the lines of law en-
forcement' said a jOintkeeper. THE
police are with us and the county and
state officials are complaining that it is
hard to obtain evidence. The problem
must be solved by the brewers
Rent Big Expense.
The first experience at law enforce
Ittetlt II proving rather expensive TO the
brewers They have leases on more
than 100 buildings in that city and so
long as the bar fixtures remain in the
buildings they have to pay the rent.
The buildings cost on an average of
$50 month each. The brewers ordered
the jOintkeepers to close their places
and the jointkeepers say it is now up
to the brewers to pay the rent So
long as the CLOSING order is in effect
the brewers viii have to pay more than
$4,000 a month rent in this city.
A wagon piled high with cases Of beer
unloaded at Joint at the corner Of
Twelfth street and Argentine boule-
ward. Even on Minnesota avenue,
within a half block of the Office of W.
H. Mechanism. the agent of Governor
Hoeh, two brewery wagons, belonging
to the Rochester Brewing company, de-
livered beer al the side doors of
tjoints." During the three weeks Mr..
Mechanism has had his commission
from Governor Hoch to close the sa-
looms, he has issued two warrants. DUR
ing those three weeks more than a
hundred Joints In Wyandotte county
have been selling liquor

er of Young Corbett, to the effect that
Corbett strained his back in the sec
ond round Of his battle with "Unc''
Russell, and was fortunate to last out
the six rounds in their fight at Phila-
delphia on Saturday ngiht. In addi-
ton to the strain, Corbett's hands are
sore from the hard training and the
four fights he has engaged in in the
last few days, and it will be necessary
to call off all fighting engagements for
at least month. COrbett viii continue

Penn and Princeton to Meet.

Philadelphia, Pa, Nov S.-The great
est sensation Of the year in football
circles here was the statement made
that next year Penn. and Princeton viii
resume contests on the gridiron. This
comes close on the known disagr
ment existing between Penn. and Har-
ward. The feeling at both Penn. and
Princeton is that the two colleges
should meet at football. It is stated
on the highest authority that the time
is ripe and that actual formalities for
the meeting hangs only on hair. The
breaking OF this hair may happen this
week, but is not expected until the
seasons close.

NEXT BIGGEST DAY.

Minneapolis, Mimi. Nov. S-As a re-
suit of Saturdays football game the
athletic Golfers Of Wisconsin and Min
nesota universities have been swened to
the extent OF about $4,000 each. The
total receipts for the game were $27,716,
and the money Will be divided equally
between the two teams.
Only one other game in the history of
Minnesota football has netted the Go
pliers more money than was taken in
Saturday, and that was the famous
Michigan 1903 contest over $4,000 was
taken in at that time.
The paid admissions on Saturday are
estimated at 10000, as against 10000 at
the Michigan game, and in the opinion
of the management 1000 more people
would have attended Saturdays con-
test If they could have secured grand
stand seats. The attendance Saturday
viii undoubtedly result in the erection
of a larger stand on the north side Of
NorthrOp field.
Saturdays defeat came as the end OF
a series oe disasters. The bad luck
came when the one semester rule was
jammed down MinnesOta's throat by the
conference. Then came the barring of
George Case. Fred Hunter and Albert
with pneumonia a few weeks ago and is
still in the hospital. Stafford broke his
hand on Thursday afternoon. Bobby
Marshall played like a demon all Sat
urday afternoon and few people in the
stands knew that he had been sick in
bed three days last week. They do not
know that Vita was not expected to get
into the game at ali with his wrenched
knee. He did get in, and played to his
limit so long as bone and sinew would
stand the strain.
Minnesota Is Ont.
VTor f1a first time since 1912 Minnesota
can make no claim for the western cham
piOnship. Saturdays defeat at the hands
of the speedy Wisconsin eleven put the
GOphers out of the running for this year
The victory of the Badgers was clean cut
and there is no lOOphOle through which
the Minneapolis men can make a bid for
the honOrs of this section of the country.
That the Minnesota team has been over
estimated is shown clearly. The Gopher
line hitherto supposed to be impregnable,
was clearly Outplayed by the men from
Wisconsin. Brush, All-Western tackle last
year. appeared to have gone back or else
he was badly off his game on Saturday.
Both OF Findlay's long runs were made
through Brush S side of the line, the Wis
consin halfback going between Burgau
and Brush.

That the Thanksgiving game viii decide
the western championship may be safely
said. Even if Wisconsin defeats Michi-
gan ON Nov Is, and Chicago wins the
THANKSGIVING game, the MarOOns will
have an indisputable title to the honors
If Michigan defeats the Badgers, the cru

a few days ago which will enable the White River road to carry in- to effect it's desire to build a new line of road between Batesyille and Magness, the Iron Mountain s attorneys having secured posses. sion Of the Batesville & Jackson port Company survey down the river. It is understood that work on the new line will begin within the next sixty days, and that 1t will be completed by the time the White River line is completed through to Aurora, Mo. All through trains will then pass over the new line between Batesyille and Magness, but the old track will remain undisturbed and a To- cal train from Cushnan to New port, as now run. will serve this part of the line. The engineers estimate that it will be cheaper to build the new line than to reduce the grade of the Sulphur Rock hill to the necessary level for heavy trains. The new line will run by Rutherford and through a very rich section of bottom country.
