CARUSO Y LA MANO NEGRA

Los clientes del Knicker-bock
apercibieron de q. NJ Enrico Caruso, Ell
gran tenor que habita en- ese hotel, era
seguido por dos hombres muy altos que
parecia 10 vigilaban con .mucho cuidado.
Como un0 de ellOs eS muy conocldO
como detective en- Broadway, empezaron
los concentrates haciendose mil sIposicio-
neS.
La verdad es que, hace dos dias Ca
russo recibi0 dos cartas de La Mano Ne
gra exigiendole la suma de $4,000 dollars.
En- la primera de elias, sc pide dinero
con urgencia y ambas estan escrita en-
,taliano.
Cola la suma en- question en- billie
tes,. m6tala en- su bolsillo y paseese en-
la calle 42 Tn hombre Sc acercara a
lsted lie hablara Dele entonces el
linero pedido cuente con que no lie
lara ningln dano''
Siguiendo los conseios de los detec-
tives, que 10 custodian, Caruso sai0
lei hotel la hora indicada y Sc pase6
IN momento en- la calle ~, pero los
detectives iban muy cerca de el ma
uralmente ninguna persona Sc acerc6
/ hablarle.
Al dia siguiente Caruso recibi0 otra
carta dirigida al hotel Knicker- -bOrker
Las frases de esta misiva probaban que
Il mismo que la habia escrito seguia los
pasos de Caruso Sc encontraba en- ell
lugar de la eta, es decir, en- la calle A.
Dice asi
'Cuando usted sali0 aver iba acOm-
panado de dos policemen. No ensaye
otra vez el burIarse de mi
Siguen instrucciones precisas para
que ell tenor vaya cierto lugar de
Brooklyn con el dinero en- ell bolsillo
La carta termina diciendo que 81 todo
no Sc cumpliese al pie de Ia letra la
Mano Negra sabra vengarsc, va sea en-
la calle, en- Su hahitaci6n, en- la escena
del Metropolitan 0 en- donde quiera"
Los numeroSos amigos de Caruso y
la policia han intcntado convencerle de
que ESQ era una simple broma, aunque
pesada, pero no hay medic de hacerlo
Greer. Caruso Supone que pronto que
rran matarle. Ha decidido no ir 4
Brooklyn CON Ia suma de $4,000 dollars.
Los detectives 10 siguen paso 4 paso,
vlgIlando los memories geStOs de las per
sonas que pasan cerca de 81.

WASHBURN GETS $4,000
Late Colonel Harrison Remembers
College Divinity Department.

The Washburn college school of di-
vinity receives an endowment of $4,000
from the estate of Col. Thomas Went
worth Harrison by the terms of his
last will and testament which was filed
today in the probate court.
Part of this additional endowment of
that department of the local college had
been given during the life of Col. Har-
rison. The first clause of his will pro-
vides that enough be added from his
estate to bring the total to $4,000 to
be paid in at the rate of $1,000 a year
until the amount is reached.
OF the remaining estate, half is to
be given his widow, Mrs. Annie w.
Harrison, and half to his four chill
dren, George B., Mary w, John w,
and Mrs. Anna E. Nelson. John w.
Harrison is named as executor of the
estate to be succeeded If for any rea-
son that become necessary, by Louis
F. Nelson, a son-in-law. No estimate
of the value of the estate has been en-
tered.
Col. Harrison was one of the richest
men in Kansas. He was a heavy in
weston in real estate and his land hold
ings are among the largest in the state.
His widow and children will share these
alike, together with whatever funds may
be in bank here, or elsewhere.
While the value of the Harrison es-
tate is not set out in the will filed,
with the probate court today, the State
Journal is able to announce that the
dead man was worth about $500 900. The
great majority of his estate is real
property.

KENDRlCK HEADS IT?
Reported Santa Fe Man Goes to Kan
sas City Terminal.

1t is rumored around Topeka rail-
way circles today that j. w. Kendrick
vice president of the Atchison, Tope-
ka & Santa Fe railway, will soon be-
come president of the Kansas City
Terminal railway, a mammoth com
pany in charge of the terminal work
in Kansas City.
1t is said that H. L. Harmon, the
present president is owner of the
construction company building the big
Union depot in Kansas City, and on
account of his connection with this
company it has not been thought wise
that he be held at the head OF the
terminal company.
AS one of the vice presidents of the
Santa Fe, Mr.. Kendrick is at the head
of the mechanical department and
although his headquarters are at Chi
cago, he is frequently in Topeka in
connection with his department work
here. Mr.. Kendrick has not been in
Topeka for some time and he could
not be seen on the matter today. None
of the local higher officels will have
anything to say on the n1atter-they
claim that they have heard nothing

HE VACATES "PARL0R. ~
johnson Sent to "Cooler"-Tried to
Get Oil and Saws.

An attempt to purchase saws and a
bottle of oil with which to cut his way
out of the county Jail resulted in the
taking of Everett Johnson out of the
'sparlor'' cell in the county Jail and
landing him in Cooler on the sec
ond tier of the cell house. Johnson is
held on the charge of forgery and it
is believed that with a confederate he
has been guilty of a number of bur-
glaries in Topeka.
When johnson was taken to the Jail
he declared he had money and friends
and would soon furnish a bond. He
prevailed upon Under Sheriff Bayless
to place him in the "parlor'' cell and
then called for a messenger boy. Bay
less later found out from the boy that
Johnson was trying to get him to buy
saws and oil for him. The messenger
bow was chased and Johnson probably
still remembers his trip from the par
lor'' cell to a more secure place within
the Jail walls.

PROUD OF HIS PLACE.
Gompers Prefers His Job to Any Other
in the World.

Washington, May 25.-"I would rather
BE- president of the American Fedora
ton of Labor than to hold any other
office ON EARTH declared Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, in assuring the
house committee on labor today that
he had no ambition to become secre-
1ary of the proposed department of la
Dor, the establishment of which he was
urging.
1.-The president should have man in
his cabinet who knows labor conditions.
one not necessarily risen from the
ranks, but VINO is still of the ranks
said Mr.. Gompers. THE creation of a
department of labor will help to solve
the greatest question of modern times
the labor question. 1t will solve one
of the problems of life; help to dignity
labor and to secure more even-handed
Justice for workers.
Secretary Morrison, of the federation,
pointed out that the 20,000,000 wage
earners of the country had no direct
representative in the presidents cab

KANSAS WANTS TO KNOW
Chairman kanavel inquiries About
Proposed Increase of Rates.

The state board of railroad commits
s1oners is taking an active interest in
the proposed increase of interstate
freight rates. A movement to make
fight against the increase is being
organized by the Illinois Manufactur-
ing association.
G. w. Knavel, chairman of the
kansas board, recently sent a letter
to the secretary of the Illinois asso
citation requesting information in re-
gard to the proposed increases and
the action of the association in refer
ence thereto, stating: I'VE would like
to keep in touch with what is going
on and what is proposed and it may
be that it would be to our advantage
to participate in anything that is I'M
dertaken by the commercial interests"
In reply to this communication the
board received a telegram urgently
requesting its cooperation and adj
ViSing that the first conference would
be held at Chicago on May 18th. On
this date the board was hearing the
general express rate case and it was
impossible to be represented in Chi
cago. At the Chicago meeting a per-
further conference called for at st.
Paul, Mimi, to be held on the 26th
and 9th, at which time the definite
form of procedure would be devel
oped.
Mr. Kanavel said: John Dawson,
tend these meetings. If the freight
rate increase is necessary to protect
the increase in wages of railroad en-
ployes, so far as 1 am personally con-
cerned l would not feel like entering
a protest, but if the increase is not
necessary for this purpose 1 feel that
every effort possible should be made
to prevent the same. I believe that
the railroad wage Garner is entitled to
increased pay on account of the in
creased cost of living, and if the
granting of this increased pay has
made necessary an increase in freight
rates in order to meet the same and
return to the railroad companies reas-
enable earnings for the services per-
formed by them in the transportation
of freight and passengers I think no
protest should be entered against
their action. But If the increased
wages is to be made an excuse for en-
larging their former dividends l am
unalterably opposed to such action"

AS STANDARD SEES 1T
Says That Franklin County Is Strong
for Stubs.

F. H. Stannard of Ottawa. repre-
sentative in the last Legislature from
Franklin county, is in the city today
Speaking of politics in his county, Mr..
Stannard declared that his county was
strong for Governor Stubs, stronger
even than two years ago He stated
that Alex. Mitchell, in his race against
Scott for the congressional nomination
in the Second district, was about as
strong as Stubs in Franklin county
Mr.. Stannard was chairman of the
ways and means committee in the last
house and an influential square dealer
of that organization. He does not think
he will run for the legislature this
year. His county was cut down from
two districts to one by the last legis-
lative apportionment. t w. Harri-
son, also member in the last session
from Franklin, will likely make the
race for denomination. Harrison is a
square dealer.

WAGSTAFF AT ELLIS.
An Impromptu Meeting With Large
Attendance.

Ellis, May 25.-Tom Wagstaff, Re-
publican candidate for governor, ar
rived here Tuesday afternoon and was
given a great ovation. 1T has not
been the intention to have Mr.. Wag-
staff speak here, but the crowd de-
manded meeting and one was held
at the city hall at night where a large
crowd cheered the young candidate s
discussion of state issues.
The Wagstaff supporters are claim
ing Ellis county three to one.
A. G. Stitch, chairman of the Wag-
staff campaign committee, arrived in
Topeka today to attend the National
Bankers convention. Mr.. Stitch is as
confident and enthusiastic as ever.
He can see nothing to 1t but Wag-
staff. He states that he is in touch
with correspondents in every section
of the state and they inform him that
the Wagstaff boom is growing strong
er every day.
