MILK DEALERS MEET
Are Planning to Form Permanent Or
eanization on Next Wednesday
Night Object to Some Provisions
Of Milk Inspection Ordinance and
Engage Attorneys Services.

AZ meeting of the retail milk
dealers held at S. Fl. Gimre's office Fri
day night, preliminary steps were TAX
en- toward the formation of an organ
at meeting to be held at Bennett Il
Binford's office next Wednesday night.
The temporary officers Of the milk
dealers are Jacob Neiderhauser, presi-
dent; Arthur Wilson, secretary. A COM
mittee to draft resolution will meet
Monday night.
The milk dealers still have COM
plant to the city's milk inspection or
dinance, and will set forth their OBJ
jections in petition to the city coun-
Gil. The principal objection according
to an attorney, who has been engaged
by the dealers, is that the ordinance
should not go in force until after the
state legislature meets, when it is ex-
pected that state law governing the
sale of milk will be passed. The deal
ers also object to no provision being
made for remunerating them in a
measure for animals condemned, such
as a state law would probably do. II
the state did make such provision, as
other states nave, the dealers claim the
city should do likewise until state
law governs.

Trains From West
Cannot Get Into
Kansas City
RIVERS ARE STATIONARY
Missouri and Kaw Are Ex-
pected to Recede Rapidly
in Next "a Hours.

Kansas City, June 15.--Flood condi-
tions are more serious in Kansas City
today than they have been vet since
the present rise in the Missouri and
kaw rivers, but both rivers became
stationary this morning and II Is now
believed that the waters will begin to
recede within the next twenty-four
hours. No heavy rains have fallen In
this vicinity since Saturday. A vast
lake has formed in the district com
prisng Armourdale. Kansas and the
wholesale district in the bottoms OF
Kansas City. The Union Station is yet
above the food level, but trains from
the west are unable to get into the
station as the tracks in that direction
are under water Some brick struc.
lures in the flooded district are being
undermined. All the packing plants
are surrounded by deep water. Their
principal loss will result from the to.
tai suspension Of operations.
Waters Receding at Topeka.
Topeka, Kans June 15.-While the
high water today is still over the great
er portion Of North Topeka, ranging in
depth from two inches to two feet, yet
it is not of dangerous nature, being
like vast pond. The water Is gradu.
ally receding. No rains have fallen
over the Kaw watershed during the
past twenty-four hours and the worst
of the present flood seems to be past
in this territory.

are being watched by homeseekers in
order to obtain grounds for contests.
