PARDON DIDN'T ARRIVE.
But Mrs. New Was Released From
Prison just the Same.

There was a good deal of excite
ment at Lansing Wednesday after
noon when it was discovered that the
friends of Mrs Emelia New had come
to take her away from the prison. and
that her pardon from the governor
had not arrived.
The pardon was mailed at a Kansas
avenue mail box at o'clock Tuesday
evening, but up to O'Clock Wednes-
day afternoon had not reached Lans-
ing.
Warden Haskell called up Cover
nor Hoch about $3.50 and inquired
what was the matter. Governor Hoch
told him that the pardon had been
mailed.
What shall I do with Mrs. New? 2"
asked the warden.
Release her at once" replied the
governor.
Sc Mrs. New was allowed to walk
out OF the Kansas pen;Ientiary We'd

will eat her Thanksgiving dinner to-
day outside the prison walls.

president to be fixed and definite so
that there can be no speculation as to
his probable future candidacy.
In addition to taking a rap at the
president, Mr.. Brewer also is believed
to have taken a square shot at the al
legged grand stand play of the lower
congress. God pity the republic" he
said, when our judges introduce the
spectacular in their judicial proceed
ings for the sake of temporary popular
applause"
The speech of Justice Brewer has
aroused intense interest throughout
the country. In some quarters 1t has
been declared an effort to show a
greater value in Governor Hughes OF
New York as presidential timber than
the present incumbent of this high
office.
David Brewer is one of the oldest
members of the nations highest court.
He was born in Smyrna, Asia, and is
the son of an early missionary to Tur-
key. He is a graduate of Yale college
and established himself in his profess
sion of law at Leavenworth, Kan, In
1889 where he resided until he removed
to Washington. In 1870 he was elected
a justice of the supreme court of his
state and was reelected in 1876 and
1882 In 1884 he was appointed judge of
the circuit court of the United States
for the Eighth district He was ap-
pointed to his present position in 1889
to succeed Justice Matthews. Since
Joining the supreme court he has exc
cuted many important trusts, among
them being the presidency of the Vene-
zuela boundary commission.

STATE PAYS Cash.
Distributes Ten Thousand Dollars to
Its Employees.


State Treasurer Mark Tulley an
preceding Thanksgiving, the state treas
ury paid out nearly 100000 to state
house employees in cashing the pay war
rants of these employees.
I'VE will continue the payments on
Friday and Saturday" said Mr.. Tulley,
land expect that we will have enough
money to pay off all the warrants"
A great deal of the money being paid
cut by the treasury consists of brand
new $50 gold certificates and new So
and $40 green backs. This influx of new
currency is direct from Washington,
and represents money recently received
received direct by the state in settle
ment of a claim against the govern
ment.
Many peculiar conditions are devel-
oping as a result of the shortage of
currency. State officers who have never
before asked the state treasurer to cash
their warrants now come to the pay
window, and get handful of gold and
bills One state officer came to his
office with several hundred dollars he
had just received from the state. He
Immediately tied the money up in
package sealed it in heavy wrapper,
and sent it by registered mail to his
home bank for deposit.
home and as 1 am anxious to do all ]
can to help the bank, am sending
them currency for deposit instead OF
my warrant"
Many other state officers have done
the same thing, while others simply
keep their wad of currency in their
pocketbooks.

NO SHOW FOR new, YORK.
Admiral Evans Fleet Will Rendezvous
at Hampton Roads Instead.

New York, Nov 2s.-The idea of
assembling the greater portion of the
Pacific bound Atlantic fleet in New
York harbor and proceeding in squad
ron formation to Hampton Roads. the
point of start for the long western
cruise, has been abandoned in order
that each of the big war vessels may
spend as long a time as possible at
the various navy yards where they are
undergoing repairs. 1t was expected
that at least ten of the sixteen big
battfeships might assemble about De-
cember /, but in lieu of this arrange
ment orders have been issued for all
vessels of the fleet to report at Hamp-
ton Roads by Monday, December 3.
This is one week prior to the sailing
there will be no change or delay.
The Louisiana, carrying the largest
crew ever assembled on an American
battleship, will be the first of the ships
now under repair at the Brooklyn
navy yard to leave New York for the
rendezvous in Virginia's famous road
stead. With 957 officers and men on
board, the Louisiana will get under
way at O'Clock on Monday morning.
On the way to Hampton Roads COM
passes will be adjusted and engines
thoroughly tested. The run will be
made in leisurely fashion so that the
Virginia capes probably will not be
picked up until late on Tuesday, De-
cember 2.
The Connecticut, flagship of Adj
miral Evans, will get away from the
local yard on December 4. The Con-
nectfcut is the government built sister
of the Louisiana, and both vessels are
representatives of the most modern of
the heavy fighting machines - the
navies of the world. The Come <sfcut
also will proceed directly to Hampton
Roads, where Admiral Evans will pre-
pare the final sailing orders.
Following the Connecticut will 20 the
Rhode Island, the Ohio, the Alabama
and the Virginia, the latter leaving on
December Z. The Virginia has just ar
rived at the Brooklyn navy yard for
docking, being in all other respects
ready for the. Il, 900 mile journey
The battleship Minnesota will leave
the. Norfolk navy yard next Monday
and come here to go in dry dock and
the Kentucky will leave Norfolk for
Boston at about the same time. There
is possibility that these two ships
may be day or so late in joining the
remainder of the fleet, but they viii
arrive in ample time Tor. the start N
the morning of the 18th The fleet of
auxiliary vessels, will include the ten
der Yankton which will be used by
Admiral Evans in entering shallow har-
bors to pay official calls. etc.
The repair ship Panther and the sup
ply boats Glacier and Culgoa, also will
reach Hampton Roads about December
8 The two latter vessels will be laden
literally Ito the gunwales" with the
thousands of tons of provisions for the
great cruise.
An interesting item on the list of
supplies to be taken aboard-attracting
special attention today-caTls for the

HocH's THANKSGIVING DINNER
Himself and Family Entertained by
MIR. and Mrs. Royce.

Governor Hoch and his family were
entertained at Thanksgiving dinner by
Bank Commissioner John @. Royce and
family.
After the dinner a serious problem
arose. The Royce family are all en-
thusiastic football lovers. John Royce's
son is one Of the players on the Topeka
High School team. On the other hand,
Governor Hoch has just issued
Thanksgiving proclamation in which he
declared that Thanksgiving day should
not be desecrated by any games or
sports. After a long and exciting dis
cussion the question was settled by
compromise; the old folks stayed at
home, and hte young folks journeyed
out to Washburn athletic field and saw
the big double header"

Roosevelt has, brought him into the ma

friends are mad clear through at the
attack OF the judge and his charge that
the president is playing horse with the

silent contempt. Justice Brewer in an
interview subsequent to his New York

IDEAL FOOTBALL WEATHER.
Just Crisp Enough to Give Test to the
Contest.

Today is football weather in this part
OF the country at any rate and that
with numerous big games scheduled for
the afternoon. The drop in the mercury
predicted by the weather department
occurred some time during the night
and so far the day has not recovered
from the effects of the change and at
noon the mercury had barely reached
the go degree mark. There is an alum
dance of sunshine which to some ex-
tent counteracts the effects of the low
temperature and there is not enough
wind blowing to detract from the pleas
antness of the day.
To the football player and the en-
thusiast the weather offering for this
part of the world is sufficient reason

ping in a boarding house with his
grandmother, not far from the court
house in which the mother is being
tried
The court will tomorrow conclude
with all witnesses, according to the
plans of counsel on both sides. A ru-
NOR has been circulated to the effect
that Mrs Annie Adams, mother or
Maud Adams, the actress, whose let
tiers to Senator Brown were read by
Mrs. Bradley just before she shot the
senator, would be here tomorrow as a
witness against Mrs. Bradley.
There is no intention on the part or
any OF the parties in the case to call
Mrs. Adams as 1t is not considered
necessary to involve her in the trial
to any greater extent than has been
done. The entire case hinges on the
question of the mental condition of
Mrs. Bradley and the jury will merely
be asked to determine whether at the
time of the shooting she was mentally
capable of knowing right from wrong
and of choosing the right course. 1t
is expected that five witnesses will be
present tomorrow to give their testf-
mony Two of them will be the alien
lists who have been called b ythe gov
eminent and three will be witnesses
who have some knowledge of Mrs.
Bradley and the shooting affair.
