WIRELESS WRITES MESSAGE.
improvement Obviates Necessity Of
Keeping Operator at station.

BERLIN. April s.-What is likely
TO prove a great Improvement in
wireless telegraphy has just been in
vented by Herr Rieder of Steglitz.
Hitherto the sending of wireless
message has necessitated somebody
being at the receiver the whole time
to take down the words as they came
along. Herr Rieder has invented a
new coherer, which emits light every
time il receives wave. IL is pre-
pared with finely powdered aluminium
instead of silver, as hitherto employ
ed. The result is that each signal
sent from the wireless station gives
feeble light in the coherer, hun
dreds of miles away, and under the
latter is fixed a slowly moving photo
graphic plate. which, when developed,
gives an exact account of the signals
The reception of a message is thus
carried out automatically.

Yesterday was dull, with slight de-

cause of this is matter for conjec-

turn. At present there is nothing on
the financial horizon to lead the pub

NEW YORK. April s.-Transse-
tons at the stock exchange today

decided. The government report on

no new interest was stirred in the
market by this influence. Traders

prices of stocks ran on. although
the percentage of condition of wheat

The Indifference of the stock mar

and they fell back upon the Erie
financial problem as the repressiVe
influence of the market. The lntl-

STUBS DENIES IT.
Says Boss Busters Didn't Use Rail-
road Money.

w. r. Stubbs has given out a state
ment concerning Governor Bailey's re-
Gently published statement. Mr.. Stubbs
denies that the boss busters used rail-
road money to accomplish Bailey's de-
feat. He says in part:
In reply to Governor Baileys state
ment will say that while he states
positively he would vote for primary
election law If he were in the legisla-
ture at this time, he does not say and
insofar as I know. never has stated
that he believed in the principles of a
direct primary election for the nominal
ton of all public officers, while on the
other hand, he is reported to have re-
Gently stated to various persons on diff
ferent occasions that he did not believe
in the principle of a direct primary
election.
with reference to his statement
that railroad money was sent to Reno
county to defeat him for the renomina-
tion as governor four years ago. 1 will
say that, as chairman of the commit
tee which had charge of the campaign
for the nomination of Hoch for COVER
nor, 1 did not accept a dollar of money
from the railroads to help defeat Mr.
Bailey or nominate Mr.. Hoch, and have
no knowledge whatever of any money
that was contributed by the railroads
during that campaign to help defeat
Governor Bailey or nominate Mr. Hoch.
and would be glad to have Governor
Bailey furnish the public with full IN
formation of any contribution by the
railroads, to whom given and where
used.
with reference to the railroad in
f1uence in Kansas being behind Gov
ernor Bailey's candidacy for cover
nor. I will state that the best evil
dence the railroads are supporting
him is the fact that the railroad poll
ticians who have Iobbied for the rail-
roads and worked with the corpora
tions during the last three sessions
of the legislature, and the recent
campaigns in Kansas. have been the
most prominent factors in making
Mr.. Bailey a candidate for governor.
"Mr. Bailey refers to me and my
associates as 'purists.' Last summer
when T addressed the old soldiers re-
union at Senace Governor Bailey fol-
lowed me and referred to my talk as
a fire alarm and the only basis for
such charges that / know OF is the
fact that I have advocated placing
the public business OF Kansas on
sound business basis in. the interest
of~aT1 the people this STATE rather
than leave it on political basis
where a few politicians were getting
richer every year at public expense
and that I am now advocating meas
ures which will give to the state and
nation absolute control of the great
corporate interests that have grown
to such gigantic proportions in
wealth and power that they have
been a. greater influence during re-
cent years in naming men for public
office both in this state and in the
senate of the United States than the
people themselves"

BLOW AT TAFT.
Is Struck Over Roosevelt's Head by
Ohio Senator'S

Washington, Jan. 15.-Foraker and
Dick have carried their fight against
Secretary Taft to the floor of the SEN
ate today. At their request the SEN
ate rejected four candidates for Ohio
postmasterships whose names had
been sent in by the president, AS the
result of a motion made by Senator
Foraker, the president was notified
Immediately Of the rejection of his
nominations.
None of the usual tactics employed
to evince the displeasure of senators
at postoffice appointments marked the
proceeding. The nominations were
not hung up" as they often are
when senator desires to show his
disapproval. They were turned
down."
The nominations came first before
the senate committee of postofffces
and post roads, of which Dick is a
new member. Chairman Penrose, ac-
cording to senate tradition, consigned
the responsibility of a report to the
senate to the hand of the Ohio sena-
tor.
Dick did not need to deliberate
long He declared that the appoint
ments would be extremely undesir-
able. AS a result, the committee sub
mitted report in accordance with
Dicks decisions. The senate in exc
cutive session approved the report and
rejected the nominations.
Senator Foraker, by senatorial
courtesy" was enabled to push
through a motion that the president
be informed at once concerning the
action of the senate.
