The Famous White House Ten
mis- Court Is Doomed.
Viii Give Place to Office For
Presidents Clerks.
1T WILL COST $4,000,
House Cleaning and Other I'm
provements to Cost $15O,OOO.
Work win Be Done While Tafts
Are in the North.

Washington, July 1--Destruction OF
he-famed White House tennis court,
where played the so-called Roosevelt
tennis cabinet to make room for the
additional working quarters for the ex-
ecutive clerical staff. began today when
the excavators marked off the ground
for pick and shovel
This is the beginning of the renovation
of the White House and the further
improvements ordained by President
Taft Only a few hours now and the
evidences CT the normal life of the ex-
ecutive residence will have given place
to the splash of the whitewash brush,
the odor of new paint and the rasp of
the carpenters saw.
Mrs. Taft and the young people will
leave Saturday evening for the sum-
rner quarters at Beverly, and in the
absence of the family will be pursued
the task of concealing with fresh paint
and paper and new upholstery the age
of the old mansion which has sheltered
every presidential family since John
Adams day.
Each succeeding administration or
ders q renovation of the executive resi-
dence. Sometimes the changes are radt-
cal and elaborate. The Tafts, however,
have decided to have It done on a less
extensive scale. The cost of the pres
ent improvements viii be but a little
more shan one-tenth of the changes

support OF its findings. It can
chow that 1t lowered the rate
for the short haul in favor OF
the little creameries. and did we'll In
this respect, but it Will be hard, very
hard. to show cause why. under any
Possible circumstances. that there was
any groupd or reason, in the interest
OF the general community of the state
of Kansas. why a higher rate should
be installed than the interstate rate.
Why higher rate should be placed in
effect in Kansas than that IN effect
in any of our nelgllboring states. Why
a higher rate should be installed in
Kansas than even the express compan-
les asked for. and 1t must be remember
ed that in the end, the farmer who
pr oduces Tie cream must pay the rate.
No end could justify these means
The railroad board was created for
the protection of the interests Of the
state and not to protect the concerns
of neighboring states or the interests
not change black to white by argu-
ment. The rates were raised to
point higher than the express COM
panies asked for; higher than those
of the members of the board is well
known: their character is not assailed;
they have dealt with the rate question
for many years past and done many
fine things for their state. But why,
in the name Of all that is good and
bad, did they hoist Kansas express
rates on cream above the nOuSeLOpS OF
precedent and reason? They could
have stopped at the Interstate rate, or
they could have granted the petition
of the express companies and still
stood within the borders of reason.
But why go higher? What is the an
swer?
The board will consider this appIi-
cation for a modification Of it's recent
ly established rates in the near future
and 1t is hoped that 1t will correct its
former ruling or anyway place Kansas
rates at least on a parity with those
of other states.
AS a basis for general and wide
spread complaint over these new and
higher rates. it must be remembered |
that Kansas ships more cream for
butter manufacturing purposes than |
any state in the Union, and the testi- |
mony of one of the express company |
agents at the recent hearing before the |
Kansas board IS authority for this |
This is an additional |
reason why Kansas should have a |
lower instead of a higher rate than |
any of the neighboring states. Again. |
the testimony before the board show |
ed that the express service in Kansas |
is inferior to that enjoyed by neigh
boring states.

made by the Roosevelts during their
first year IN the White House.
Seven years ago, about half a million
dollars was spent in remodeing the
interior of the White House proper and
in erecting the east and west wings,
including the present executive office
building President Taft will expend
not more than $150,000 for extraordinary
improvements in the main building and
$40 COO in increasing the size of the Of
fee. 1t was this enlargement that
doomed the tennis court.
The remodelfpg done during the
Roosevelt term will be accepted by the
new administration. unaltered. Opera
lions will be limited largely to the re-
covering of walls, the reupholstering
of furniture; painting, decorating and
the purchase of draperies. Repainting
Of the exterior in the characteristic
white will be confined to patches.
Both in the White House proper and
in the new office, no attempt at gran
deur will be essayed. Provision will be
made, however, for the better accom-
TnodationS for the scores that flock to
the White House daily to see the presi-
Dent. A special waiting room will be
provided for congressman and senator's,
but it will be in marked contrast with
the gold4adorned chamber that con-
gress provides for the presidents use
when he goes to the capitol at the end
Of each session.
The presidents efforts at public econ
ony are shared cheerfully, 1t is said,
by Mrs. Taft. So far in the direction
of simplicity and economy Is she will
ing to go, that her present intention
is not to avail herself of the customary
design to be handed down to posterity
as "the Taft set" She believes she
is able to get along well enough with
the dishes already at the White House.

TODAY's MARKET REPORTS

Chicago, July 1-WHEAT-Free deliver
les of new wheat at southwest grain cen
tiers caused weakness in the market here
during early trading today. Additional
bulHsh news was received from Argentina
but the favorable weather conditions for
harvesting in the winter wheat belt of
this country offset all other factors. Prices
at the opening were 1s0DAc higher to Ac
lower. July being at $1-16 to $1-16s- After
touching $L16z, July declined to $L152z.
Sentiment in wheat was extremely bear
ish the remainder of the day and prices de-
clined steadily. The bottom for July was
reached at 81. Is. The close was weak, with
July off 9s0$zc, at H-15A.
CORN-Bidding by shorts held the corn
market steady despite the weakness of
wheat. Demand was largely for the July
delivery. Local receipts were larger than
had been estimated and this tended to
cause some easiness at the opening. July
opened Hc lower to &c higher, at 711kc to
715sc and for a time held within the open
ing range.
toward midday owing to profit taking in
close was weak, with July down ssc, at
705sc.
OAT5Oats were weak on renewed liqui-
dalton in the July delivery. Favorable
crop reports were the chief influence.
July. which opened 1sc to lac lower, at
day.
OVISIONS-Provisions were firm ow-
ing to a &c advance in live hogs. There
was also some buying based on a decrease
in hog packing here for the week. Prices
at the opening were SC to 123zc higher.

proven by the finding of 1915 in one

owned his residences, a cottage at
Ills Lulu avenue. and three farms
in Harvey county. His farms are To-

ried a small grip. Some of his neigh
bors saw him leave the house. None
of them have seen him since that time
He went from this city direct to Burr
ton and from there started to his
farms. That was the last seen Of him
alive.
None of the relatives Of the dead man

He Was a Wealthy Man.
Mr. Guist was about so years old
and was wealthy. He had resided in
this city about IS months. He came
here from his Harvey county farms.
The murdered man was one of the
first settlers in Harvey county. The
first farm he owned there was home
steaded by him IN an early day.
While the Guist family relations are
said to have not always been pleasant
10 one here can give any reason as to
why he was killed by a person who
did not want to rob him. He was of a
retiring deposition and had no enc
1rsies SO far. as is known here.
No arrest in connection with the
Killing had been made late this after
