POLITICAL GOSSIP
w. III. Haskell and His Guber-
Material Aspirations.
May Be Candidate of Anti
Stubs Faction.
HOCH'S GOOD WORD.
Says That Mr.. Haskell Is Very
Able Man.
AArAf%Iwv
Adroitly Dodges the Question
When InterrOgated.

w. H. Haskell, warden of the state
penitentiary, and senator from Smith
county, is liable to be projected forci-
bly, into the arena before long as the
candidate of the anti-Stubbs faction for
the Republican nomination for COVER
nor.
In this ambition-and there is no
doubt that the idea has reached the
proportions of an ambition in Senator
Haskells mind-the Smith county man
is likely to have the backing of Cover
nor Hoch, as we'll as that of the radi-
cal machine crowd of the Republican
party. Mr.. Haskell is Hoch's appointee,
and there is no doubt that Hoch is
proud of his record as warden of the
prison, and regards him as one of the
strongest men in his official family.
When 1t was suggested to Governor
Hoch that Warden Haskell was being
mentioned as his successor, he said:
Mr.. Haskell is a very able man,
and would make a very strong COVER
nor. He has made a splendid record as
warden of the penitentiary, and seems
to possess a wonderful faculty of get
ting along we'll with the prisoners and
his subordinates, and at the same time
OF handling the business of the peni-
tertiary in a thoroughly business-like
manner" Then the governor turned
Questioner and said to his interviewer:
What do you think of him as a can
didate?''
1t was suggested that the record of
Mr. Haskell in the senate would be
urged forcibly against him.
The governor was silent for a mo-
xnent and then said: II think it is like
ly that Mr.. Haskell would be better
fitted for executive than for legislative
duties. However. he has never said to
me that he would like to be a candi
date for governor
Governor Hoch is pleased with the
way Warden Haskell improved the OPP
portunities afforded by the peniten-
tiary for saving money for the state.
Among other things, Mr.. Haskell has
started the state off IN the hog bust
ness quite extensively. This was line
with which Mr.. Haskell was thoroughly
familiar and the state pig farm has
been a great success. From the farms
and refuse from the penitentiary, Mr..
Haskell while warden has raised big
bunch of fine hogs, which are a source
Of considerable profit to the state.
When Warden Haskell was in To-
peka yesterday, he was asked few
questions concerning his Candidacy"
.sI'm not a candidate" he replied.
"But you may be later?" was asked.
NWho are the candidates, anyway"
asked Mr.. Haskell, beginning to side
step.

TURN FOR WORSE.
The Condition of the Aged EN-
perOr of Austria
Is Now Regarded as Being Ex-
tremely Serious.
COUGHING KEEPS UP.
Indifference to What Is Going
on Recurs Frequently.
Kaiser Keeps in Close Touch
With the Situation.

Vienna, Oct. 1.-THE condition of
Emperor Francis Joseph took a turn
for the worse at noon and is now con-
sidered serious. The following bulletin
has been issued by the official news
agency:
The coughing continues, though the
emperor spent quite good night"
The emperor was able to rise at his
usual early hour this morning after
having passed an expeetedly good
night. He coughed less and slept more
quietly. The catarrhal Inflammation,
however, has not diminished and his
appetite continues bad. although he
takes sufficient nourishment to main
tain his strength.
His tempera ture was only above nor
perature had been taken the emperor
received his aide, De Deca, General
Baron Bulferas Won Ahnenburg. and
others. and listened to the reports
which they read.
An unsatisfactory symptom of the
emperor's condition is his recurring in
difference to what is going on around
him and to his own state of health,
which his physians declare is only
slightly improved today. The report
from Madrid that the visit of King
Alphonso and Queen Victoria to Vienna
has been postponed Indefinitely is con-
frmed.
Kaiser Is Much Interested.
Berl1n, oct. Iz.-Ine prevailing o1nclal
opinion here is that should Emperor
Francis Joseph of Austria die in the
near future the transfer of the crown
to Arch Duke Francis Ferdinand would
take place without a shock to the dual
monarchy, or without a controversy of
moment arising between Hungary and
the new sovereign. The opinion is
based upon study of the personalities OF
Hungarian and Austrian statesmen and
of the knowledge of the private affairs
and policies of the Austrian court. The
German government has taken care for
years to be always in possession of full
information regarding the Austrian sit
uation. During the present period of
doubt concerning the result of the Aus
TRAN emperor's illness Geographic re-
ports on the subject have been received
by Emperor William twice a day from
Schoenburn castle.

Kansas City, Kan, Oct. TO-
Wheat-1t was an old fashioned bull
week in the wheat market. and prices
are up today over sc from the close a
week ago. There was no particular
secret about this sharp advance. In
the very logic of things it had to
come. The big worlds shortage and
the strong statistical outlook, becom-
ing stronger day by day, easily made
the bull element the master of the
situation. The wheat market knew
its masters voice" and promptly re-
sponded to the call. Since the middle
of August. this market review has
been advising people very strongly to
buy wheat for a big advance,
was a splendid investment in view of
the large crop shortage everywhere
and that wheat was actually selling
way below its merits. On August IS,
sold at III kc. over lie a bushel
advance in loss than so days, some
thing that does not occur often in
such a short period. We are glad to
note that thousands of people
promptly followed the suggestion and
bought all the wheat they could con-
veniently carry, hundreds sending in
orders lat the market" On the bull
movement it's a good policy not to
hesitate, but to buy at any price. The
tremendous profits that have accrued
to this army of purchasers vindicates
their Judgment in taking good
thing when they see It," or their at
tention is called to it. But the end is
not yet. There are doubtless just as
big profits still in sight for new pur-
chasers of wheat options. It looks
like the big bull market has only just
about got started. The situation is
very acute and getting stronger every
day. Wheat may catch fire and de-
velop into wild runaway market at
any time now. Patten and some big
shrewd Chicago grain men predict
$1.25 for wheat early this winter.
They have been right 50 far and made
bushels of money Comparatively
speaking, wheat is about as cheap
now as when twas many cents lower.

There is no doubt that Senator Has

fact that he lined up solidly with the
