Uniform Mileage Rate to Be

BY Every Railroad in the United

MEETING IN CHICAGO
Reaches Agreement After a
Heated Discussion.
Two TranscOntinentaI Lines Re-
spOnsibIe for the Decision.

Chicago, June 22.-The Inter Ocean
today says:
Passenger rates on all railways of
the United States will be reduced to
two cents a mile The lowering of the
price and complete abolition of the old
three cent rates will begin on. July L.
This was the decision reached in
Chicago yesterday after long and
heated discussion by the leading rail-
road presidents of all the western and
transcontinental roads. 1t was not a
formal agreement, but is equally bind
ing for two large roads doing trans
continental business are said to have
served an ultimatum to others that they
would put the rate into effect imme-
diately.
Following the meeting, officials of
several roads admitted that they had
been forced to bow to public opinion
and anti-railway legislation. They said
that no further fight would be made
on the two cent laws already passed
and that the roads would accept the
inevitable.
Among those who are said to have
attended the secret meeting were
President B. L. WincheI of Chicago
Rock Island & Pacific and President
A. J. Erling of the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul. Neither would discuss
the report last night.

MUST COME TO TIME.
City of Topeka win Call the County
to Account.

After threatening for years city Of
ficials have at last summoned up
enough courage to go after the county
officials to make them act good.
For years the county treasurer has
turned over to the city the taxes that
were rightfully its proportion without
giving detailed statement indicating
what the amounts represented, wheth-
er delinquent tax, interest or what.
As a result the city does not know
how much is due from the county in
the way of back taxes.
The city believes that large
amount is due and is going to work to
secure it.
A resolution will be introduced in
structing the city treasurer not to ac-
cept any more taxes from the county
until a detailed statement accompanies
it, In addition to this c. E. Carpen-
ter an accountant, has been employ
ed and will start to work Monday go
ing over the books of the county from
1888 up to date to discover how much
delinquent tax is due Topeka and has
never been paid. 1t is believed that it
will run into the thousands of dollars.
The year 1888 is taken as a start
ing point because at that time the
county commenced to purchase prop
erty that had unpaid taxes hanging
it against instead of selling all the
property to private individuals.
II a suit is necessary to force the
county officials to prepare the detailed
statements desired the city will bring
suit This was stated today by Mayor
Green and Councilman Howe. They
hope of course that it will not be ne
cessary to go to such lengths.
The statutes specifically provide
that: The county treasurer shall, on
January Is. April Is. July Is and Oc-
tober l 3 of each year or Oftener if re-
quired by the city council, pay over to
the city treasurer all moneys and evil
dence of Indebtedness collected for
and payable to the city, and the citys
on all penalties and inter-
est collected on all taxes and special
assessments and make a full, itemized
statement thereof to the mayor and
council, and the county treasurer
shall, take duplicate receipts from the
city treasurer for the same and file one
of said receipts with the city clerk
Such a statement has never been
presented to the city say the city Of
fcials though the law makes it mis-
demeanor punishable by either fine
Of 500 or imprisonment for. sixty
days or both to fail to do so. Both
commissioners and county clerk
are held liable.
I'VE get our money. but nothing ac-
companies to show what proportion of
It is delinquent tax and what is in
-erest," said Councilman Howe.
I'VE can't tell the amount OF de1fn- |
1uent tax except by making some sort |
Of a hazardous estimate" |
I'VE will have to get. these reports f |
we have to sue for them said the |
mayor.

CHAUTAUQUA'S TROUBLE.
Ottawa Ministers Complain of Observ-
ance of sabbath Programme.

Ottawa Kan, June 22.-The Ottawa
Chautauqua assembly and the ministers
of this town are not getting on harmon
lousy together. In fact the ministers
generally have started a boycott against
the Sunday programmes of the Chau-
tauqua and some of the preachers have
denounced the entire Chautauqua
course as a result of the management.
The ChautauQua mana cement, how
ever, is bending every effort to making
this coming Sunday draw a big crowd.
Sunday afternoon Governor Buchtel of
Colorado will lecture on The Religion
of the Future" and Sunday night Sam
uel Thorstenburg, the director of the
Lindsborg Messiah" who is the Chau-
tauqua musical director, will give a sa-
cred concert.
The action against the Chautauqua
began when the Ottawa ministers in
body determined to ask the public to
boycott the Forest park programmes
Sundays. Letters were sent to other
ministers in neighboring towns asking
aid and sermons were preached The re-
suit was that the Rev. G. S. Nusbaum
of Independence, formerly of Ottawa,
signed from the mana gement. The town
tiers and many of the business men
criticise them. The public is divided in
its sympathies.
The assembly had big receipts Taft
and Bryan days. The receipts for Taft
day amounted to more than s., 900. From
present indications the debt of the as
sembly incurred when Forest park was
flooded several years ago will be wiped
out this year.

SCHMIIz STILL MAYOR.
He Governs San Francisco From His
Cell in the Jail.

San francisco. Cal, June 22.-From
his executive cell in the county jail
Mayor -Schmitz returned to the board of
SUPERVISORS the municipal budget and
message vetoing the appropriation of
S720 900 for the reconstruction of the
Geary street road.
I Schmitz, besides opposing the appro-
priation for the Geary street railway,
also objected to the levy of a special
tax of 20 cents to raise revenue for the
city government. Acting Mayor Gallag-
her said last night that Schmitz's right
to pass upon the budget was not ques-
toned by the board.
The first actual clash between Chief
OF Police Oman and Acting Mayor Gal
lagher came when Oman f1atfootedly
refused to recognize Gallagher's sigma
ture as that of the mayor of San Fran
CISCO The signature was a fight per-
NIT issued to the Central Athletic club
for a series of four round boxing bouts
to be held in Dreamland rink last even
ing and before Oman would allow the
doors to open to the crowd the promot-
ers had to bring him a permit signed
by Eugene E. Schmitz.
The application of Schmitz for writ
of habeas corpus and bail was taken
under advisement of the judges of the
appellate court. Not until Monday will
the judges decide whether or not it
will give hearing to the application.

temperance. Whenever it becomes
apparent that the advocates of law en-
forcement' are mere grafters. and have
no interest in the cause of temperance
except that which is inspired by avari-
cfous impulses and mercenary desire
to make money out of it, is 1t not time
to call a halt?''
Governor Hoch had known all the
time of his official term the exact
situation in Atchison. 1t did not re-
qUire mass meeting to advise him of
the situation. Every one will agree
that the violation of any law is wrong.
The prohibitory law has been openly
and VIGOROUSLY violated in Atchison
for twenty years. with the knowledge,
if not with the connivance and con-
sent, of each succeeding governor, in
Guiding Governor Hoch. and with the
knowledge and consent of a large ma
jority of the citizens of Atchison. I'm
der the order issued by the governor
from New York, the saloons will
doubtless close, and our city will have
an odious occupation tax to keep the
streets in repair, to accommodate the
beer wagons in the safe and expedi-
tious delivery of beer from the ware
houses and deDots in East Atchison.
If, however, the New York order will
close the saloons. and stop the sale
and use of intoxicating liquors. it will
be approved by our citizens, even
though irregularly issued, and secured
through false pretenSeS.i'

NEW ATTRACTION AT v1NEwooD.
Gillette, the Sliding Wonder, Will Give
Free Exhibitions Beginning Sunday.

The free attraction secured for Vine
wood Park next week by Manager F.
G. Kelly. commencing Sunday after
noon. promises to be equal if not SUI
perior to the attractions offered in the
past and is advertised as Gillette" the
sliding wonder. Mr.. Kelly has secur-
ed the longest pole carried in stock by
the street railroad company and this
will be located near the bank of the
creek at Vinewood Park.
From the highest point a wire will
be fastened forming an incline to-
wards another post of but few feet
in height, 300 feet distant and it is
down this incline that Gillette will
make his slide while standing in an up
right position. Just when it appears
that he will be dashed to death against
the ground he springs into the air and
lands in a vat of water twenty feet
beyond. 1t is possible that the program
will be varied next week and that the
leap will be made into the lagoon in
stead of into a tank.
The attraction comes we'll advertised
as a feature and if up to the expecta-
lions of Mr.. Kelly should be a drawing
card for the next week. Two perform
ances will be given each day, the first
at 4 o'clock in the afternoon and the
second at $3.50 each evening.

QUIT THEIR KEYS.
Operators of W. Z. and Postal in san
Francisco Walk Out.

San Francisco, June 22.-Strike-
ridden San Francisco had another
strike added to the list when the
telegraph operators employed by the
Western Union and Postal Telegraph
companies left their keys and walked
out of the offices. Three short blasts
from a police whistle gave the signal
and at the sound the operators arose
from the tables, put on their coats
and quit their jobs.
Both the Postal and Western Union
main San Francisco offices are located
close together in the Ferry building.
Since the fire the main relay office of
the Western Union has been at West
Oakland, where about $50 men and
women are employed. In the San
Francisco office about twenty oper-
Branch offices about twenty more. The
Postal company has sixty operators in
its main San Francisco office. EN-
ployes of both companies, with the
exception of one in each office stopped
work at the signal.
The operators in San Francisco and
Oakland were dissatisfied with the
letter from President Clowry of the
w. L. and insinuated that their de-
mands for a 20 per cent increase in
wages should be granted.
President Small of the Commercial
Photographers union arrived here yes
terday and after considering the sit
Uation ordered the strike unless the
Increase was granted. Both the West
ern Union and Postal officials declined
to grant the increase or to consult
with the union. They expressed their
willingness to consider and act upon
any grievances presented by their en-
ployes as individuals. but this has not
satisfied the men and the walkout re-
suited

PUZZLE OF The SEA.
Turtle Captured With Date 1881 on
His Back.

San Diego, Cal. June 22.-One of
the puzzles of the sea came to the sur
face here when a gigantic sea turtle
was captured by Julips Solissa, fish,
erman. The monster weighs 1902
pounds and it's shell is five feet two
inches from tip to tip. On its back is
burned or carved this inscriptions:
British ship Sea Brine, August 12,
1881, 3 south, Sc west. If found,
please notify Thomas Fletcher. Braw-
ley Road, Irvington, England
1t would appear from this fact that
the turtle was captured 26 years ago
in the south Pacific and that he was
released after the lettering had been
burned in its shell.
