1T WAS MOSQUITOES.
NJ. Witte Tells the French How Peace
Was Brought About

Paris, Sept. 26.-M. witte laugh
ingly referred while here to Prof.
Martens experiences with American
food, adding:
Cant say I suffered quite that way
myself, but that may be due to my
constitution. What found nearly in
tolerable was the mosquitoes. We
made peace in order to get rid of the
mosquitoes. 1 understand now why
the American national temperament is
so very nervous. Americans suffer
stoically one of the greatest torments
known to human flesh"
Friends say Whites stay in America,
short as it was, changed him greatly.
He is far less ceremonious than he
was, has such jaunty, jovia1 air that
the French reporters had hard work
at first to recognize in him the man
they had SO often before tried to in
terview, but in vain.
Whites pro-German declarations
undoubtedly have widened the breach
between France and Russia, and are
bitterly resented by the Russian am
bassador. Consequently M. Whites re-
ception was respectful, but lukewarm.

MARK TULLEY HERE.
He Would Like to succeed Il. t. Kelly
as Treasurer.

Mark Tulley of Independence, who
is now probably in the lead in the
race for the Republican nomination
for state treasurer, was in Topeka to-
day to talk politics with some of the
state officers. It is said that Tulley
may get the backing of Hoch and his
friends, though in that case there
might be trouble with W. r. Stubbs,
who wants to land Samuel Moore of
Douglas county in the position. Moore
is the man who was slated to succeed
Tom Kelly had Kelly been ousted from
office.
Mr.. TulIey said today in speaking
of his candidacy: 1T is too early to
tell how this fight viii finally line up,
but so far 1 know of only two men
who are likely to be candidates. l
suppose Mcknight will be in the race,
and it is also likely that Stubbs will
bring out Moore. l am very well
pleased with the outlook. Ny own dis
tr1ct will give me enthusiastic support.
suppose there win be some other
candidate for a state Office from cur
district as we are entitled to two
places on the ticket, but I don't know
of anyone else coming out at this time.
81 have not been paying much at
tention to this fight on Governor Hoch,
and I don't know how it is going. 1

possible; have troubles of nay own"

MUIhANEY BRINGS IN BONDS.
He Doesn't Care Whether His Bank
Gets State Money or Not.

Ed Mullaney, of Hill City. who is
connected with the same bank with
Lieutenant Governor Dave Hanna. is
in Topeka today placing on deposit the
securities of his bank as one of the
state repositories.
Mullaney is the man who is said to
have had boom for the job of rep
resentative from Graham county. Mr..
Mullaney disavows this boom. He
says he never discovered it until it
was pointed out by the newspapers.
The story was that he would be run
as a candidate against Hanna in case
Hanna should try to get in line for
speaker of the house,.
Politics are quiet up in our dis
trict," said Mr.. Mullaney. 81 don't
know that Mr.. Hanna is a candidate
for anything. He says he isn't, and
that ought to settle it. Mr.. Reeder
will be renominated for congress
without opposition. in my opinion.
Concerning this new depository
law. 1 might say that our bank does
not care whether it handles any of the
state money or not. The fact that we
are qualified as a state depository will
be of some value to US in an advertis-
ing way We do not need money; we
have more on hand than we need as

BOARD UP KANSAS AVE.
Street Commissioner Ramsey Would
Do This to Save Pavement.

'.I have thought seriously of board
ing up a portion of Kansas avenue
against traffic" said Street Commits
sioner Ramsey. this morning. 1.-The
street is being ruined by the traffic;
that is l mean the concrete base, which
could be saved until some action is de-
cided upon by the property owners, is
being rapidly destroyed by the vehicles
and teams which pass over it, l don't
care what they pave it WITH Just so
they pave it,
Property owners on East sixth ave-
nue. from the east end of the viaduct
to the end of the present cobble stone
pavement are considering the repaving
of that street with brick. The cobble
stone pavement for a distance of five
blocks there is in bad shape almost as
bad as on Kansas avenue. The proper
ty owners expect to pay for it them
selves, they don't expect to have the
city at large help bear the expense
which will be no light one, for with
but few exceptions the property own
ers are daily wage earners and have
no great abundance of wealth..
II think the Kansas avenue proper
ty owners are put to shame with the
spirit of those people on East Sixth, =
said one prominent citizen. Those
people down there for the most part
scarcely get more than two dollars a
day and UP here on the Kansas avenue
the property owners are getting from
$500 to $3.50 month. And yet the lat
ter are trying to dodge out of resurfac-

All persons or firms engaged in

is killed is of small use and of practi-

Standard Oil Gaining Control of
ALI Transit Securities.
VALUE OF s8s, ,1O5. 900
Is Obtained by an Investment
of Fifty Millions.
Other Similar Transactions De-
clared to Be Pending.

Cleveland, o., Sept. 26.-The Leader
says today THE Standard OIL group
OF New York financiers has obtained
control of the transit securities in Ohio
and Indiana with a par value of $50
10000, at a reported cash outlay of
S5O,0O0O00. Other similar transactions
are known to be pending.
The positive statement was made
Yesterday by a prominent Cleveland
hnancier. and was supported by
the statement of Philadelphia
banker, that the New York STANDARD
Oil coterie is back of the United Gas
Improvement company of Philadelphia.
This company is working in Ohio
through agencies-the Elkins-Widener-
Dolan syndicate and Randall Morgan,
vice president of the Gas company.
The former syndicate bought the
Cincinnati Street Railway properties
and took over the Cincinnati, Dayton
and Toledo. the Mccullough lines in
indiana and several others. The latter
has just bought the Tucker r-Anthony
properties, the Columbus, Buckeye Lake
and Newark and the Columbus, New
ark and GAINESVILLE. 1t is also admitted
by Philadelphia interst that control is
sought of the Appleyard properties
known as the Columbus, London and
Springfield, the South Market street
line in Columbus and the DAYTON
Springfield and Urbana
The positive statement is made by
several authorities that once these pur-
chases have been made it is the inten-
ton of the United Gas Improvement
company of Philadelphia representing
Standard Oil interests to form a holding
company cor with capital stock of $5.-

ONE NORTH SIDE BLOCK
That Is All That Needs Resurfacing
Says Mr.. Dreaming.

The executive committee appointed
at the mass meeting at the CONNER
cial club Thursday evening in the in
terests of resurfacing Kansas avenue
met this afternoon at 2:3O o'clock in
the office of j. G.. SlOnecker- The
committee consists of W. E. Sterne, j.
G. SIonecker, Ned Osborn.
'.It is probable that we will decide
to draw up a separate petition for
North Topeka because there is really
but one block over there that needs
resurfacing and cannot be repaired, -
said City Attorney Drenning. There
is one block over on the south side, in
front of the Parkhurst-Davis building
which probably can be repaired too
and need not be resurfaced. We will
go over the petitions this afternoon
and prepare them for circulation.
"I have just been down to that
bitulithic plant and it is nothing but
a regular asphalt plant. We could use
it all right for asphalt purposes. The
city can save $4,000 on a municipal
plant by using those boilers down at
the Harrison street pumping plant for
power purposes. This will save the
cost of buying new boilers and you
can cut down the price of a first class
plant to 5000.

SUEZ TO CLOSE.
Blowing Up of Sunken Ship VIII
Obstruct Navigation.

New York, Sept. 26.-Intense excite
ment prevails at Port Said consequent
on the decision to blow up the ship
Chatham which was sunk in the Suez
canal some weeks ago while on fire,
says a Herald dispatch from Alexan-
dria. There is so tons of dynamite in
the Cha thamst cargo. That the town
will be damaged to any extent is con-
sidered unlikely, the vessel being near
ly II miles distant.
The dynamite on board the Chatham
will be the greatest amount ever blown
up at one explosion.
Thirty tons of dynamite were ex-
ploded in 1898 OH board a ship anchor
ed at Santander, killing 600 people and
injuring over 200. Thursdays exp1o-
sion will be far bigger but the canal
runs through the open desert at the
point in question and all necessary pre-
cautions have been taken.
Czarnikow, McDougaH & Co., of this
city received the following cablegram
today;
TT is probable Suez canal will be
closed Il days; debris Chatham"
The report received considerable at
tention i'll the sugar district as the
closing of the canal will delay the ar
rival of several cargoes of Java sugar
due to arrive at the Atlantic ports dur
ing the latter part of October and No
vember. The time allowed for a
steamer to make a trip from the Suez
canal to New York is about "a to 25
days.

the necessary instructions be sent to
the provincial authorities SO that the
delegates may enter on their functions

matter was soon satisfactorily settled

FIVE KILLED IN WRECK.
New York Limited PIows Into a Local
Passenger Train.

Philadelphia, Sept ga rear-end
collision between the east bound New
York limited express from ST. Louis
and local passenger train which was
standing at the Pao1i station of the
Pennsylvania railroad, nineteen miles
west of this city. resulted in the death
of five men and the injuring of more
than twenty others.
All those who met death were in the
private car of General Mana ger After

of the local train. Mr.. Atterbury is on
his vacation in Maine.
In the car at the time of the collision
were about dozen men who had been
engaged in Overhauling the car Those
who were not killed were injured
The force of the collision was so
great that the engine of the limited
plowed ten feet into the private car end
the latter was forced half way through
the day coach head.
At the time of the accident there was
less than half a dozen passengers in
the local train. and they were in the

Hundreds of railroad men from the
yards came quickly to the rescue. Near

on the forward cars of the local train,
which was run to this city as special.

a dozen of the injured were taken to

SHE HAD TO TAKE EN-.
Presents Received by Miss Roosevelt
Said to Aggregate 100000.

Washington. Sept. 26.-It is roughly
estimated that the presents which Miss
Roosevelt has received from the en-
press of China, the emperor of Japan,
the emperor of Korea, the sultan of
Jolo and others in the far east, will
reach cash value not far short of
100000.
Miss Roosevelt was placed in a posi-
ton where she could not decline any
of the presents without giving offense
The gifts came to her as the repre-
sentative of the government, although
she did not travel with any such
credentials. As the daughter of the
president she was regarded by the
Orientals as they regard the reigning
families of European Kingdoms.
The gifts were tokens of friendship
and good will for the United States
and Miss Roosevelt could not have
declined any, not even the pearl from
the sultan of Jolo. without placing this
government in the attitude of reject
ing friendly overtures.

KILLED IN A CAR.
And Her Body Thrown Out OF the
Window.

London, Sept. 26-The Merstham
tunnel of the London and Southeastern
railway where the brutal murder of
Frederick I. Gold by Percy LEROY,
alias Mapleton, occurred June q, 1881,
again has been the scene of a mysteri-
Gus tragedy, the details of which so
far as ascertained are markedly similar
to that of a quarter of century ago.
In the present case the. victim is
young woman, NY Money, whose
body was horribly mutilated. A long
veil was tightly wedged in her mouth
and the police are confident that the
woman was murdered in the compart-
ment of train on which she was trav-
cling and that her body was thrown
from the car. The fact that none of the
doors of the car on its arrival at Red
hill was open is considered to prove
conclusively that it was not a case of
suicide. Miss Money left her home on
Sunday evening saying she would not
be gone long.
