John W. Breidenthal, of Kansas
City, Kan, whose political acurnen is
denied by no one, has written letter
70 W. H. Ryan, chairman of the
Democratic state central committee.
in which he expresses a rather posi-
tive opinion of the election of Harris,
and gives some interesting facts con-
corning the situation in Wyandotte
county. Mr.. Breidenthal writes,
among other things. including a men
ton of an enclosed substantial check
to the Democratic campaign fund
If the people I have met from vari-
Gus parts of the state are not the
d--dst fools or liars on earth. there
is something going to drop on the sixth
of November.
In all my experience never knew
SO many prominent Republicans who
are openly for our ticket.
"A Republican committeeman in
this city told me the other day that
there is only one outspOken Hoch man
IN his precinct and only one other, who
has signified his intention Of voting for
him. This man viii vote for Harris
and says that he wrote the above facts
to the state committee when they re-
quested him to line the boys up for
Hoch.
Il was shown a Republican poll of
another precinct In this county which
two years ago gave Hoch 146 and Dale
A This poll shows, Hoch ~. and
Harris 132. This was shown me in
confidence by a Republican candidate
for Office. He remarked that it sim

would probably beat Hoch."

prisoner at the Four Courts, charged
with forgery. He was arrested at 2949
Dayton street last night by Detectives
Schmidt and Murphy on information
from Chelsea, I. T.. that there are five
counts In the charges against him
there. While denying the forgery,
Fitch admits he has since learned the
in St. Louis working for salary Of
$12 a week in an effort to make the
checks good.
With his bride, formerly Miss Sadie
Morgan of Pryor Creek, /. T., Fitch
was seated eating supper when the
detectives arrived to arrest him. A
fearful scene followed between him
and his bride. At the Four Courts he
requested that his relatives be notified
inme diately in order that they might
come to his assistance.
Fitch is 43 years old. His bride is a
little over 20 years. Despite this off

amounts from $50 to 500 from his
brother in Newport, Ky. He cashed
Fitch and his bride went first to

checks were worthless. He immedi-
ately wired the banks where the checks
had been cashed, offering to make
them good at the earliest possible mo-
ment
As soon as he arrived in St. Louis,
Fitch stated, both he and his wife
sought employment. He went to work
in a clothing store for $12 a week, and
his wife made less. He had communi-
Gated with the authorities at Chelsea,
he stated, telling them he would make
good as soon as he was able to raise
the amount. He says he thought the
affair all settled until the officers came
to arrest him.
one of his requests to the police was
that his other brother H. P. Fitch, at
Fort Collins, Colo, be notified of his
arrest and requested to meet him IN

SOLDIERS ARE HUNGRY
The Utes stole All Their Supplies Of
Provisions.

Sheridan. Wyo.. Nov. Further details
of the raiding Of a government supply
train bound for the camps of the Tenth
and Sixth cavalry from Arvada charac-
terizes it as a very clever piece of work,
evidently planned by some of the older
heads of the Ute tribe. According to
Driver James FOrgen, no Indians We're in
sight until a bunch of about 100 redskins
suddenly dashed out OF a deffle in the
hills and quickly surrounded him. They
made little noise outside of a few sharp
yells in the nature of commands and,
while several Indians kept Forgen under
their rifles. the balance rifled his wagon
train OF 30G) pounds of flour, the sacks
of which were strapped TO the cayuses
Of the Indians, who then disappeared into
the hills
As the result Of the raiding of the sup
ply train, the troopers are in need, and
the operations looking to a chase of the
Utes are practically at standstil uu-
til additional supplies can be had. More
supply trains viii be sent out from Ar
Vada 1T once
The Utes have completely outwitted the
military and are now reported back in
Wyoming on Little Powder river retrac-
ing the route by which they entered Mon
tana. They evidently knew OF the arrival
of the troops at Ashland and have either
given up the attempt to reach the Chey-
ennes or are waiting for that band to
meet them in some other part of the
country.

Mr.. Bryan's letter should be enough

they are going to take the advice of
the pfratical leaders of the old predatory
political system. They will, I think, be-

that every leading beneficiary OF what
was known as ''commeTcialism in poll

BONI STILL HOPEFUL.
The Count Thinks He Can Bring About
a Reconciliation.

Paris, Nov. I'm spite OF the state
ments made by Maitre Cruppi in the
opening address of the case of Countess
de Castellane. who was Anna Gould of
New York. for divorce from her husband,
Count BOni de Castellane, that there was
not the faintest possibility of a recon
ciliation. it is by no means certain that
the count has abandoned hope of such an
outcome. HIS conduct since the suit be-
gan appears to have been based upon the
belief that his wife must yield in the end.
This theory will explain the counts re-
fusal of liberia! offers of life income
1t is also disclosed that the count never
ceased writing letters to his wife in which
he begged for reconciliation, and in
which he anathemaUzed the American
lawyers under whose influence he charged
she was acting.
Friends Of Count Boni say he was
had allowed the presentation yesterday Of
detailed case. He was so confident that
his wife would surrender that he did not
prepare q defense.
1t was cnly today that the documents
which under French law must be ex-
changed. were transferred to counsel
for the opposition These papers amount
in the main to letters written to Count
BOui by his wife and which show the con-
tempt in which she held her husband.
These letters viii probably necessftate the
production of the letters which provoked
them.
It seems certain today that Count Bonifs
defense to the charge of infdelity will be
"unprOven' and that he consequently will
demand an inquiry and the production of
witnesses for the purpose of prol0ngtng
the case. his idea being to accomplish a
reconciliation This would open a road to
extricate the count from the money diff
nculties With which he is beset.
The calling of witnesses is what the at
torneys for the countess are particularly
anxious to avoid a s doing so would drag

WILSON CASE
Garden city Man Claims They Failed
to Ren1it.

A case against A. P. Tone Wilson and
Anthony P. Wilson against whom dis
barment proceedings are now pending
was set for trial in the city court this
morning but was postponed until the
18th of November at the request of the
attorneys in the case. The suit was
brought by David NJ. Baughman Of
Garden City who claims that they are
indebted to him nearly $1O0 for money
which they have collected and refuse
to pay him.
Mr.. Bauman has lived at Garden City
for 20 years and most of the time he
has operated a threshing machine dur
ing the fall and winter months, and in
this way he accumulated number of
notes for small amounts which he was
unable to collect as many of the par
ties had left the vicinity. Reading Of
the wonderful collecting ability of the
Wilson's in their advertisements, he sent
about a dozen of these notes to them for
collection. with the understanding that
they We're to receive 10 per cent of all
of the money collected for their ser
vices.
The complainant states that three of
the notes amounting to about $100 were
collected but that no settlement has
ever been made and that the amount
is yet due and unpaid. For this reason
he asks judgment against the Wilson's
for $95 and costs as well as attorney
fees. There is an echo of their land
business connected with this suit as
Mr. Bowman claims that he is indebted
to them $40 for advertising his farm for
sale.
