August and holding remarkably firm,
all things considered. Besides the big
collapse in stocks there were other
things to account for the reaction,
which was not such a very big one.
Hundreds of bulls, with big fat pro-
fits, wanted to convert them into cash.
and the price went up SO swift Mon
selling by wealthy bears. The big
daily export demand temporarily halt
ed, and the receipts at Winnipeg and
western markets began increasing,
owing to the very attractive prices Of

ly relieved and the Canadian north
west wheat crop turned out better
than expected. nice rally developed
from the low point today and wheat
closed firm and in good form to re-
sumo its upward journey. Virtually
all the conditions are still essentially
bullish. This few cents break brings
wheat down about in line to catch
some large export bids in the hands of
New York houses and something big
may be doing in that line soon. Last
weeks clearances. 100000 blu. was
another 'corker" and the biggest for
about ten years. 1t absolutely proves
that the wheat is going out of the
country rapidly and that before the
end of the crop year we may not have
another bushel to spare. Elevator
stocks at Minneapolis, Chicago and
Kansas City are decreasing every
week and the supply is gradually
melting away The weeks visible
supply decreased over l y millions
against a similar increase year ago.

even less than the BLACK Rust year.

Congressman Calderhead Of Marys-

OF the Kansas congressional delega-
ton in Topeka on Monday Oct FL
This meeting is for the purpose of or
ganlzaton, and it is expected that all
the congressman will meet here and
that there will be a grand final pow
WOW with the Kansas politicians be-
fore the departure of the COMPRESSION
al delegation to Washington Con-
gresham Calderhead is now chairman
of the delegation. It is possible that
at this meeting the delegation will dis
cuss what it will do about the fight for
United States jobs in Oklahoma.
While Oklahoma is no longer under
the protecting wing of the Kansas del
egation, there are several former
Kansas men in the race for appoint
ment as United States judge. There
are also candidates for these places
from other states, and the delegations
of half a dozen states will lend their
moral support to the candidates
who happened to come from their
state.

David w. Mulvane. Republican ma
tional committeeman from Kansas. has
also lined up with the faction which IS
fighting the direct primary. Mr.. Null
vane's letter in reply to the Anthony
proposition, is in part as follows:
LAS to the manner of nomination OF
congressman and the election OF con-
gressional committeeman, that is a
matter solely within the discretiNl OF
each congressional committee, and. as
1 am not a member of such committee,
I take it that you wish to know my at
titude as a member of the state COM
mittee.
Gas to the manner of the election
of delegates to the national convention.
the state committee has no authority
to decide. That is a matter entirely
within the control of the national COM
mfttee. That part of the call for the
national convention of 1904 which re-
lates to the selection of delegates at
large to the national convention, reads
as follows:
by popular state and territorial con-
ventions of which at least thirty days
notice shall have been published in
some newspaper or newspapers OF gen.
eral circulation in the respective states
and territories.
's,The call OF every national convention
since 1876 has provided in similar man.
ner for the election of delegates at large.
1t is not at all probable that the next
The states having primary election laws
generally provide for a state convention
to elect these delegates. In Nebraska,
under the primary law of that state,
state convention must be held to elect
delegates at large to the next national
convention. The same is true of Iowa,
Missouri, South Dakota and Washing
ton under their primary laws. AS 1
the situation, there is now
no opposition to the state officers serv-
Ing their first term. In view of this and
rhe fact that a state convention will be
held next year, it seems to me unfair
and unjust to compel these state Off
GERS to incur the expense of primary,
whether that expense be great or small.
IT am in favor of an early convention
next spring to elect delegates at large
to the national convention at which
state convention public expression can
be given of the overwhe Inning sentiment
which 1 believe to exist among the Re-
nuhIicans of Kansas in favor of Secre-
tary Taft for president. Such an en-
0orsement will materially assist his cam
fidacy in other states if it is given be-
fore their conventions are held. I fav..r
also the nomination Of the state ticket
by such convention the delegates to it
to be selected either by county conven-
lions or by direct county primaries as
the respective county central commit
tees may determine Very truly yours,

AGAINST JIM-CRow CUSTOM.
Colored People Allege Discrimination
in Police Court

At largely attended mass meeting under
the auspices Of the National Equal Rights
Council held last night in the Trinity Bap-
fist Church, speeches were made by col
ored lawyers and others protesting against
the jim-crow cells in the Police Court, the
sending to the Workhou5e of so many col
ored women who are needed as servants,
and alleged discrimination along the color
line in the government departments. The
District branch Of the National Equal
Rights Council was revived by the meet
ing, and Rev. ]. Anderson Taylor was
elected president and Rufus Delaney vice
president 1t is planned to have several
branches in different sections of the city.
The discussion of the commitment Of COL
ored women to the workhOuse In large num-
bers brought out a lively denunciation of
present conditions. 1t was asserted that the
number being sent there Is growing so rap
idly that the white people VIII soon find
that they must ge their own breakfasts.
The plan of organization contemplates
the appointment by the local branch Of an
attorney general, whose business 1t will be
to defend prisoners. both white and colored,
before the Police Court when the prisoners
have no counsel. The members also want
more colored members of the jurtes In the
courts, claiming that there has been DIS
elimination.
1t was also asserted at the meeting that
the prisoners In the Police Court were az
vided along the color line, white prisoners
being put in one cell and colored PRISONERS
in others. Protests against thiS a'esu
discrimination were mace. .,.
The recent alteration between wnite
ava :. colored clerk in the Treasury De-
nartment also came up for discussion Inc
sneakers last night asserted that the coll
ored clerks should be give, tne same PRIV,
