RED CROSS SEALS SELL FAST.
Booth Established in the Federal
Building Today.

A booth for the sale of Red Cross
seals was established this morning in
the east wing of the federal building.
The sale of seals was heavy up to noon
today and the women in charge of the
work expect the federal building booth
to be the most prosperous in Topeka.
The work at the federal building will
be in charge of Mrs. w. B. Swan. Two
women will have charge of the sales
and each day new force will work ir-
the building. Today Mrs. Schuyler
Nichols and Mrs. Frank Bradley are IN
charge of the booth.
Booths were established in the large
stores last week. The receipts from
the stores, so far as reported have
been heavy. Mrs. Frederick w. Free
man said:
I'VE have not received reports from
all of the stores, but the stores under
my supervision reported the sale of

was given a preliminary hearing in the
court of Topeka and bound over to the
district court today.
The defendant made a long and ex-
cited plea in his own behalf, insisting
that he thought his former wife was
legally divorced. He explained that he
had sent her sister money with which
to secure the divorce and that the for
mer wife had afterwards written that
SHE had gotten the decree. He said he
had sent the money to the sister in
order that the wife could get action on
the grounds that she did not know his
whereab bouts. His speech had little to
do with perjury but the state had indi-
Gated that should the perjury charge
fail, one of bigamy would be ready.

ARE MANY REASONS.
Chief Wilmarth Makes a Good
Showing in Fire Service. :

1t cost the officials of the city of To-
peka over $500 more to run the NUM-
cipal government for the month of No.
vember, 1910, than the month of No
vember. 1903. This fact was discover
ed in the monthly report just issued by
Roy L. Bone, city commissioner
But the Topeka commissioners do not
consider this an argument for the
council form and against the commits
OF this year over the same month last
year was not within many hundred dol
lars as much as the increase of the year
1903 over the year 1908.
Commissioner Bone has established
new system of issuing report of the
city finances every month in order that
the property owners, taxpayers and
citizens might know just where and
now the money is spent for the opera
ton of the city government
From the report issued this afternoon
by Commissioner Bone it will be seen
that the greatest increase in expenses
was in the street department where ST.
III more was spent than in the same
| month the preceding year. This is due
to the extra amount of work on the
Topeka streets and the accounts of I'M
usual number that have been charged
up to them.
The greatest decrease in expenses
was in the fire department, where
than $1,000 less in expenses-this de-
spite the fact that the salaries in the
department We're raised.
The salaries of the city officials are
much greater this year than last. The
total increase over last year was $3.50.
This was caused by the law regarding
the salaries paid to the city commits
sioners
AS usual, the receipts in the Office
of the license collector are on the in
crease. G. T. Mattingly has created
several city license collection records
since being in Office and he has kept
up his record for this month this year.
His increase over last year was almost
$500. 49,
There was a big decrease in the po-
| lice court fine collections. For No
vember. 1909, they amounted to
| $1,340.25 and for this month only
1928. This is a decrease of $512.25.
| The officials of the present administra-
ton will tell you that this is caused
| by the decrease in crime in Topeka
and the efficiency of the police depart
ment in keeping down, the crime. The
officials of the last administration will
iteH you that the police are not as
active as in formeroyears.s ci
The miscellaneous. receipts decreased

PLAYERS WIN BEFORE JUDGES.
Ferguson Gets, Bonus and Maddox
Gets Pittsburg Pay.

New York, Dec. 13.-An important
meeting from the general baseball
standpoint was that of the national
commission, which was called to order
by Ban B. Johnson, president of the
American league. The commission had
several routine matters to attend to
and two important cases to decide. The
first of these was that of Pitcher Fer
guson of the Boston National league
club who had a contract which stipu-
lated that if he won half the games
he pitched last season he was to re-
ceive a bonus of $500. He pitched
fourteen games and won seven. The
club contended that as several of his
victories were in exhibition games. he
was not entitled to the bonus.
The commission sustained the
player.
Pitcher Maddox contracted to play
with Pittsburg for the season ending
October Is, but was sold to the Kan
sas City club of the American asso-
citation. The Kansas City clubs sea-
son closed October 1, and Maddox de-
manded that Pittsburg pay him for the
/ fifteen days his original contra ct with
that club still had to run.

| after an investigation of the matter
have found that during the past year

| Superintendent Barnes of the state in

I mean men who secure employment
from q company and set of rate
sheets and blanks and go out to rep
resent that company and write insur-
ance. They work few days, write u
few policies and then leave for parts
unknown, taking with them their ex-
pense money from the company and

| What l want to do is to make it as
nearly impossible as L can for this

this kind of work. so I am sending out
| the following letter to the insurance
companies doing business in this state:
| will you please obtain, as soon as

| representatives in Kansas, the names
| of agents who have obtained and re-
| fused to repay advances; also the
names of agents who have refused or
