Chamber of Commerce Gives a
Bonus of $35, 900.

Coffeyville, Oct. 15.-The Journa,
says: A long step toward the 10000
mark in population was taken in the
rooms of the Chambers of Commerce
when contracts were signed with A.
Steward Fenzel, trustee, for the loca-
ton in Coffeyville of a steel rolling mill.
Tho plant when built will be the largest
labor employing industry in the city
aside from the Missouri; Pacific. It
means veritable boom for this city
Mr.. Fenzel was the gentleman re-
ferred to in the Journal Monday when
it announced that a new industry would
soon be located in Coffeyyille He has
been here for over a week waiting until
site could be secured for his plant
He is rated in Bradstreet's at 81, DOC, 600
The plant that he proposes. to build
will make all kinds of structural steel
and iron, including beams for bridges
and machinery, sheet iron and in fact
all the products of rolling mill
The plant will be located in one of
three places: On the Jones land near
Westmoreland park; on the Cahill land
south of the roofing tile plant or on
the Schofeld land northwest of the
city. Options have been secured on all
of these sites.
Mr.. Fenzel has agreed to build a
plant costing $100.000,000 or more; to
employ at least 500 men; TO nave Il
yearly payroll of at least $350,0OO and
| build and operate his plant at least so
days before receiving any bonus.
The Chamber of Commerce agrees to
give Mr.. F'enzel cash bonus of $4,000
| in installments depending upon the OPP
Grafton of the plant, and to give him In
escrow deed for the site, which will
probably cost $1,000
The contract provides that work on
the plant shall begin within ninety
days, but Mr.. Fenzef says it will un-
| doubtedly commence just as soon as
| the election is over and business again
| resumes normal conditions.
| Out of all the propositions that have
come to the Chamber of Commerce fol-
help this is the second one to receive
aid. The first is the Sunflower gas
plant, which will be given $1,000. That
| sum with the $4,000 to be used for the
| rolling mill will make eight of the
| twenty $1,000 bonus fund assessments
due. There have been two of the as
sessments called for already, so the
bonus fund subscribers can plan to
make payments of per cent of their
subscriptions on the first Of each month
for the coming six months.

SURPRISE AT WHEELING.
Taft Meeting Was Larger Than
Expected.

Wheeling. Oct. 15.-Wheeling had
a decided political surprise last night
in the magnitude of the festivities in
honor of Judge Taft. Local
authorities agreed that it was the
largest political demonstration the
city has ever had. Twenty-nine
marching clubs were in line repre-
septing nearby towns on both sides of
the Ohio river. Judge Taft rode at
the head of the parade for more than
an hour and was greeted by throngs
the entire distance. He spoke to two
tremendous audiences and was the
center of the greatest enthusiasm
everywhere he went. So great was
the rush at the market house where
Mr.. Taft spoke, that he had to
abandon his effort for the safety of
the women and children in the crowd.
At his second speech the candidate
defended himself briefly against a
charge in a local morning paper that
in 1894 he as judge, had sentenced to
six months imprisonment certain
strikers without a trial. This was not
true Mr.. Taft said. and then explained
the circumstances of the strike and
the full trial. He added:
"I was enforcing the law as it
stood on the statute books as a sworn
Judge" He declared with emphasis,
land if that is to defeat a man for
office we ought to know it mighty
quick"

MAJOR STONE, TEsTIFTEs.
Says Major Slavens Struck Him and
Called Him Liar.

Leavenworth, Kan. Oct. 15.-Dur-
ing the court martial hearing in the
case of Major John S. Stone of the
United States military prison, Stone
was given a chance to give his side of
the case. He made a dramatic witness,
using the judge advocate as a dummy
to illustrated how Major Slavens, COM
mandant of the prison, is alleged to
have used him.
He said that Major Slavehs struck
him and called him liar and wanted
to fight him. The trouble arose over
the surgeons failure to obey orders of
the commandment. Major Slavens sent
for the surgeon and the latter sent a
message back by a noncommissioned
officer, it is said
The commandant then demanded
the surgeons presence and scene
followed. The outcome of the court
martial will not be known until the
findings have been sent to the review
ing. officer and approved. There Is a
clash of authority between the two
majors the surgeon claiming that the
commandment is not regularly APP
pointed.
