Although the sky clouded and the

up TO DATE BULLETINS.
How the Returns Were Furnished to
the People.

AS usual the State Journal office
was the center of attraction last night
and, as they have done on the occasion
of every other election or occurrence
of general interest, thousands of Tope-
ka citizens gathered at Eighth and
Kansas avenues to get the most reli-
able returns.
To prevent interference with the
street car service on the avenue, the
crowd was moved around onto Eighth,
and "Col." Charley Crews, the cham
pion long distance talker of Topeka-
and probably of Kansas-delivered the
latest returns from a north window.
From s O'Clock until midnight, the
gentleman with the megaphone voice
made himself heard from Seventh
street to half-past Quincy. with no re-
freshment except an occasional drink
of thin. wet water.
At 1880 o'clock the reporters who
had been visiting the polling places in
automobiles. decided that they had
enough, and wished the crowd would
break away and catch the last car.
But the crowd did not break, and the
reporters were chased out for a final
round. At midnight half a thousand
people were still on the job.

GRANTS RESPITE
I0.IHE FOUR men
Governor Exercises Clemency in
Case of Alexandria Men
Charged With Murder.
NO ACTION IN HARDY CASE
His Excellency Not Yet Ready to
Say What Course He Will
Follow in the Matter.

Governor Mann has respited Eu-
gene Dorsey. Calvin Dorsey and Rich
ard Pines, accused of killing Edward
Schultz, a Chicago man, from exc
cution until June 10. The negroes
were to have been electrocuted FRI
day morning. Henry Smith. the
fourth negro implicated In the Alex
andria murder, has been respsted
until June 8.
The reprieves were grarrSed by the
Governor because he received Thurs
day morning voluminous petition
pressing their belief that the negroes
were innocent. This belief seemed
to be predicated on Smiths abilities
as a preyaricator.
Dorsey. Pines and Johnson were
convicted on Smiths testimony, and
he rs safd TO be charter member of
the xklnias Club. 1t Is believed that
the cage will end by Smith going to
the electric chair and the other ne
groes' sentenced commuted to life
imprisonment.
Contrary to report. Governor Mann
has taken no final action in the case
OF Samuel Hardy. although he may
hvae intimated Wednesday that he
intended committing the doomed
mans sentence. Hardy Is under SEN
tence to be electrocuted on May 20.

not gone over all the papers In
Hardy's case. and wishes to cross

in an affidavit that Hamilton acct

Mrs. Sallie Hicks. 1t Is believed.
however. that both men will escape
the chair.
Thomas NOEL. the Norfolk county
negro, under sentence to be electro
cuted Friday morning, was also
granted a stay of execution until
June 10 to allow the Governor time
to go over papers in the case.
