BANKS MUST PAY.
Governor Haskell Demands Guaranty
Fund From Oklahoma Banks.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Oct s-Such
state banks as are suspected of being
reluctant to pay the emergency levy OF
three-fourths of 1 per cent on their
daily average of deposits into the state
bank guaranty deposit fund for the
benefit of the Columbia Bank and Trust
company are being visited by personal
representatives of Governor HaN1ell
and warned that they must not refuse
payment or are being called over the
telephone by Governor Haskell him
self and notified that they will have to
comply with the law
The bankers are being told that after
the three-fourths of per cent has been
sent to the guaranty fund from the de-
funct bank the money will be restored
to the individual banks
Governor Haskell is telling owners of
state banks that hereafter no state
funds will be deposited in national
banks, because he believes the national
banks are unfriendly to the guaranty
law.
The national banks are said to have
about 40 per cent of the state funds in
their keeping. 1t is probable that no
state banker will now refuse to pay the
present levy, as those bankers opposed
to the workings of the guaranty law
are not sufficiently organized to resist
the collection Of the levy with safety to
themselves

RUTH BRYAN TO RUN.
Announces Her Candidacy for Congress
in First Colorado District.

Denver. Oct. S.-Ruth Bryan-Leavitt
has announced her candidacy for the
Democratic nomination for congress
from the First Colorado district. With
the support of the Jane Jefferson. club,
of which she is president, of ex-Sena-
tor Patterson and his papers, and with
her fathers prestige in Colorado, she
expects to put a Bryan on the payroll
of the nation again.
But there are mutteringS in the Jane
Jefferson club. Th,re are members
much older than Mrs. Leavitt, some of
them old enough to be her mother,
who believe that if a woman is to be
sent to congress from Colorado, the
elder stateswomen should furnish the
timber. They are perfectly willing to
have Mrs. Leavitt go to congress from
Colorado-six or eight years from
now, when she has become mature and
well poised, they say, but just now they
want the place for one of their num-
ber
However, Mrs Leavitt and her
friends are going ahead with their
plans. The Republican women are
busy along the same line and the wife
of Marshal Dewey C.. Bailey may be a
candidate before the Republican First
district convention.

RETURNS FROM EUROPE.
Sons Suicide Kept From Mrs. Dam
iels Until Here.

Although she had learned of the
death of her son Roy G. Daniels, his
mother, Mrs. J. F. Daniels, did not
know until she arrived in Topeka to-
day from trip abroad that the young
man had taken his own life in hotel
here less than a week ago. Mr.. and
Mrs. G. B. Kirk, ITO Monroe street.
met Mrs. Daniels in Kansas City and
accompanied her here, where she is
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. H. L.
Shirer, 1857 Fillmore street.
Mrs. Daniels first learned of her
sons death when she landed at the
pier in New York after several
months spent in Germany. She was
informed by Mrs. T. S. Hand, and
George Willet, friends of the family.
However, the fact that the young
man had taken his own Te was kept
from her until she neared Topeka,
when she was told the fact by Mrs.
Kirk.
II don't know anything" she sob
bed Historically this afternoon, when
the funeral will be held, I am not

was about one hour late.

JAPAN'S FRIENDSHIP.
Is Vouched for by American Mis-
sionarieS at Toxic.

Toxic. Oct S.-The protestant
semi of Toxic. composed
of 100 missionaries. representing
American churches of all denomina-
lions. adopted resolutions today ad-
dressed to American lovers of inter-
national peace and good WILL"
The resolutions assert that the gov
eminent and people of japan have
maintained consistently an attitude of
cordial friendship to the United
States, therefore the American people
are asked carefully to discriminate
in the news received from Japan. for
in the last two years a mass of mis-
information has been circulated con-
corning this country.
The assertion is made that, not
withstanding the persistent evidences
of ignorance concerning Japan ap-
pearing in the sensational press of
America, the people of Japan have
continued to maintain a friendly at
titude and a high degree of self con-
troll.
In conclusion the resolutions de-
clare that the removal of race
prejudice and misunderstanding be-
tween the peoples of the two coun-
tries is in the highest degree de-

Minute and n Half

ST. Louis, Oct. S.-Glen H. Curtiss

small audience of st. Louis Aero club
members. He was in the air min

wind. A cluster of trees dead ahead
caused him to descend
Hugh A. Robinson of ST. Louis to-
day made his first attempt to fly in
his monoplane. CurzOn, owner of
the Farman biolane rose four feet
from the ground in that machine.
This was better performance than

able to do with the same craft.
