CUTS HocH's PLURALITY DOWN
OFFICIAL RETURNS SHOW THAT
HARRIS GAINS.

Topeka, Kan, Nov. 10.-The OFF,
cial returns as they come in con-
tinue to cut own Gov. Hoch's plural
ity, but there is scarcely a possibil-
lty now that they will bring his to-
tai plurality below 1000.
Official returns had been received
last night at Republican and Demo
cratic headquarters combined from
76 counties and those combined with
the unofficial returns first received
gave Hoch a plurality of 1922. In a
majority of instances the official
count has decreased Hoch's plurality
by few votes.
The few official counts for the en-
tire state ticket indicate that the
greater portion of the ticket won By
plurality of from $4,000 to 10000.
In nearly every county from which
the count on the entire ticket has
been received Hoch ran far behind.
In one county this is not true Doni-
phan county appears to have given
Hoch the full vote. The average on
state officers is about 1880 and the
vote given Hoch was 1872. Harris
vote was $50.
Chairman drummer said last night
chat he believed Cy Leland's county
considering its total voting strength
had given the Republican ticket a
better plurality than any other coun-
ty in the state.

TROOPS SENT AS PREcAUTIoN
Oklahoma Citizens Fear Dismissed
Negro Soldiers.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Nov. 12.-It
is believed at FIT. Reno, Okla, that
the four companies of the Twenty
sixth infantry, which were started
for that post last night on a special
train from San Antonio, are to take
the place of the negro troops, mem
bers of companies B, C and D, of the
Twenty-fifth Infantry, recently order
ed dismissed by President Roosevelt
as result of the riotous disturb
ances in Brownsville, Tex, on Aug
ust 10. A telephone message this
morning from FIT. Reno, developed
the information that the officers at
the post there had not been advised
of the dispatch of the troops from
San Antonio, although infantry had
been expected to take the place
of the disbanded negro troopers.
No trouble had occurred, it was said.
Later it was stated by an officer at
FIT. Reno that the Texas troops had
been sent to Oklahoma as a precau-
tionary measure The negro troops
are soon to be formally dismissed
and the citizens of Ell Reno, where
the three companies are stationed,
fear that trouble will follow. The
Texas troops come, it is stated, as
matter of protection to the citizens.
Since their arrival at FL Reno, which
is two miles distant from FIT. Reno,
the negro troops have been placed
under the strictest discipline, being
subjected to roll call every two
hours. The formal order for the dis
charge of the disgraced troops was
issued at Washington yesterday. The
date of actual dismissal is not known

ROBBED A PULLMAN.
A Lone Man Heavily Masked Went
Through the Rear Sleeper of
Rock Island Train.

Kansas City, Mo. = A lone rob-
Der, heavily masked, boarded the
rear sleeper of east-bound California
limited train on the Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific, known as No. IA,
between Slater and Glasgow, Mo-, at
11:5S Thursday night, robbed three
passengers and escaped in the dark
ness. According to the local offices
of the Pullman company. the robber
secured about sos. Among the three
men forced by the robber to disgorge
was E. r. Slagle, of Kansas City, as
sistant superintendent of the Pullman
company.
The robber, who is described as
being tall and wearing a long black
overcoat and mask, oarded the rear
sleeper at Slater. When the train
had gained Roadway. he entered the
sleeper, an observation car. He en-
countered l.. S. Pearson, Pullman
conductor; c. w. Roller, flagman,
and r. Wood, a negro porter all OF
Chicago. Levelling two revolvers at
the trio of trainmen, the robber COM
manded them to proceed ahead of
him and wake up the passengers.
AS his cammand was carried out,
the robbar. forcing the conductor,
porter and flagman ahead of him, Sc
cured what booty he could in. his
hurried march through the car
When he had reached the front end
of the car, he started for the second
Pullman. The porter, howevre, had
managed to get far enough ahead of
the others to make a dash for the
second car and slammed and locked
the door in the face of the robber
The train was then at a point about
one mile east of Glasgow. Realizing
that he could proceed no further with
his work, the rober pulled the air
rope. While the train was slacken-
ing its speed he jumped off and dis
appeared in the darkness.

ming. AS she seated herself, she was
about to remove the long red cloak
when with horror and CONSERVATION

something! My, what a predica-

fore leaving for the show, and there,
covering the front of the white skirt
was a lowly calico checked apron.
She managed to remove it after the
house had darkened, and the next
morning the sweeper at the Colonial
