WOULD STAY
Tiirty-six in Chicago apply to Court
for Protection.

Chicago. July 1S.-Thirty-six Igor
rotes from the Philippines were taken
into the protective arm of the law late
yesterday afternoon when Judge S.
H. Bethea of the United States dis
trict court ordered that F. F. Baker
said to be the representative of the
war department, shall not take them
from Chicago until the court has had
an opportunity to investigate the in
tricate questions arising from their
being in the United States.
Attorney Antoinette Funk fled an
application for a writ of habeas corpus
containing the names of the Igorrotes
and asking for their release from the
custody of Barker. The people are
now at Riverview and San Souci
parks as part of the attractions of the
two places. Judge -Bethea viii prob
ably decide on the matter today.
The Igorrotes were brought here by
DR.. Truman K. Hunt under a bond to
return them to the Philippines They
have been on exhibition at the two
amusement parks until recently
when Barker came to Chicago and
took them in charge in the name of
the government to return them to
their homes.
This caused conflict between
Hunt and Barker resulting in the is
suance of warrants for Hunt at the
behest of Barker. In the meantime
the lSOTfOIeS continued SlNlilS tnelI
shows and the money thus derived is
being kept in a trust fund, but the
Igorrotes were in charge of the gov
eminent. When Barker threatened
to take them from Chicago, Miss
Funk took up the matter.
Yesterday morning Miss Funk con-
ferred with Judge Bethea and later
returned with Assistant District At
torney Amos W. Marston, when Judge
Bethea instructed them to find Barker
and instruct him not to take the
Igorrotes away from Chicago. Barker
could not be found at his room at the
Great Northern hotel, but it is ex-
pected he Will be in court today and
explain under what authority he IS TO
move the Igorrotes from Chicago. It
is contended that they are citizens of
one of the late acquisitions of the
United States and as free to remain
in this country as any citizen. This
and a number Of other problems viii
have to be solved by Judge Bethea in
disposing of the writ.
Julio Balinay, an interpreter for the
Igorrotes. also asks the protection of
the court from threatened arrest by
Barker. They were all brought to
the United States under contract
with Hunt for $3.50 a month, and
Hunt now asserts that because of
Bankers action for the government
he cannot fulfill his contract with
them, and they are complaining.
Before Justice Martin a warrant
was sworn out yesterday by Hunt for
the arrest of Barker, and given into a
constable's hand for service Hunt
charges Barker. who has, he says,
kidnapped the Igorrotes. with con-
spfracy to cause Hunts detention and
Indictment It is charged by Hunt
that Barker Is attempting to put the
United States government in the show
business in spite of contrary orders
received from Washington

WIN BACK THE NEGROES.
Republicans WIN Devote Much Attens
ton 10 Them.

Considerable attention viii be devoted
to the negro voters of the state by the
Republican managers during the com-
ing campaign, because the Republicans
fear that the action OF the last Iegis-
lature in passing the separate high
school bill. and of Governor Hoch in
signing that bill over the protests OF
hundreds Of negroes. will cost the party
many negro votes.
Nick Cliles' paper here in Topeka has
made medicine out Of the separats
high school proposition, and the Repub-
.icans have discovered that it has been
costing them negro support. There Is
growing belief that the negro vote will
not line up as solidly for the Republi-
can ticket as in years past.
To counteract this influence as far as
possible. the Republican managers are
now sending out negro missionaries
to work in localities where there IL
strong nagro vote. In the larger cities
Of the state. in Graham county, and
IN other localities the negro vote cuts
considerable figure.

THE DEADLY FAKE
DISPATCH AGAIN

Still that fake dispatch, to the dam
age of Honolulu. keeps coming back.
The latest form is this. from the Santa
Fe New Mexican of April 20:
CHICAGO, April pa cablegram
has just been received from Honolulu
stating that the heaviest earthquake
shock in years occurred yesterday,
killing many and demolishing many
buildings. Telegraph wires were in
most cases destroyed by the shock. and
it is feared the entire city has been
devastated. 1t is impossible to learn
the magnitude of the death list. The
earthquake lasted six minutes. the vi
oratfons being so severe as to tear
large buildings from their foundations.
Immedia tely following the shock, the
water in Honolulu bay rose rapidly,
and a tidal wave was feared but the
vibrations ceased. A panic exists
among the people of the city, and ac-
curate details of the severity Of the
shock are unobtainable.
