FOUR TO GO THROUGH.
Outlook for the Taft Measures at This
Session.


Washington, Feb. 29.-Four administra-
ton measures are assured of passage at
this session of congress After confer
ences with senators and representatives
President Taft told callers today that he
felt certain the amendments to the inter
state commerce act, the postal savings
bank bill, the anti--injunction propositions
and the statehood bill will go through.
The situation now seems to portend that
the Alaska legislative council BILL the fed
eral incorporation bill and several other
measures desired by the president will
either fall by the wayside or be laid upon
the shelf for another time.
Some senators are inclined to view the
statehood bill from a partisan standpoint.
They fear they will be making four DEM
ocratic senators and some Democratic rep
resentatives in passing the bill. The pres
ident. however, wishes to stand by the
Republican national platform of two
years ago, which guaranteed statehood
to Arizona and New Mexico. Postmaster
General Hitchcock has taken stand
with the president in this matter. OF the
four administration measures mentioned,
the statehood bill alone seems to- SHOW
signs of weakness.

him credit for securing more than

let fall by Joseph Young of the Leav-
enworth company that he went up to
Maple Hill last night and spent the
time with Horace Adams. The $4,000
bid today looks queer to some of the
six commissioners, and they say so.
The disappointed contractors did not
conceal their feelings, but did not talk.
Fox was considering moving his plant
from Ohio to Kansas. He was proud
of his close bid--so close he could not
cut more than So.

about this contract letting: st don't

I have my private views. I will say,
though, that 1 voted against rejecting
these bids, and when Mr.. Neil made
motion to reconsider. 1 seconded it.
In the vote thought we had won. On

the move to reject. two Wabaunsee
and one Shawnee commissioner voted
against it,
The Wabaunsee commissioners had
yet more to learn about building
bridges, though they have put up some
fair ones at Wamego and BeIleville,

exclaimed. OF course, the Shawnee
board does not make full payment
either until the bridges are completed,
but the idea Of paying anything at all

Another proposition the Wabaunsee
chairman, in view of the situation of
the contract getting, took deep inter

use an inspector from their own Of

Johnson always was fascinated by

ADA GROVES GETS DIVORCE.
Charged That Husband Had Been
Cruel to Her.

Ada Groves was granted a divorce
from Ollie Groves, custody of her 2
year-old child and $500 alimony by
Judge Dana today. Mrs. Groves, who is
young woman of striking brunette
type, told a story of cruelty at her hus-
bands hands quite the worst recited to
the district judge.
Many dates of assaults were cited
when he beat her and struck her in the
face with clenched fists and once struck
her blow in the back which crippled
her permanently. After living with him
two years on his fathers farm at Ed
wardsville, she says she fled with her
babe to escape further bodily harm
Her own people live at Oskaloosa but
her father is now dead.
Judge Dana granted everything asked
by her attorney, James Mcclure except
that he asked that the plaintiff make
an attempt to pay the court costs.
Ollie Groves is now known to be some
where in Colorado. having worked
awhile in a Salina store before leaving.

RICH in MINERAL.
Alaska Coal Fields Estimated to Be
Worth 100000, 900.

Washington. Feb. 19.-Manager
Stephen Birch of the Guggenheim-
Morgan Alaska syndicate, who was be-
fore the senate committee on terri
the committee that there were fifty
million tons OF coal in prospect in the
Cunningham group of mines in Alaska,
which he considered worth in the
ground $25, 100000 if it could be taken
out now.
Senator Frazier called attention to
the fact that the Guggenheim- Morgan
option on these claims called for the
payment of only $250,000. In another
connection Mr.. Birch dwelt upon the
difficulty of mining in Alaska and said
that without 2 railroad the coal would
be utterly valueless.
Mr.. Birch also went at length into
the syndicate's railroad enterprise from
Cordova bay and it's purchase of a
competing road owned by Post Broth
ers of London and also into it's ac-
quiistion of the Bonanza copper mines.
In the matter of the copper mine pur-
chase, Mr.. Birch said that as manager
of those mines for the company from
which the Guggenheim- Morgan COM
bination had purchased, he had taken
up claims for the company and had
used the names of other stockholders
for that company, the company paying
the expense. He said that 100000
had been paid for the copper proper
ties and that comparatively slight de-
VeIopment mad brought 50, QUO, OOO
worth of ore into view.
The Cunningham properties consti-
tuted only one group of Boring river
coal fields, said Mr.. Birch. He init
mated that the field contained 500 mil
,, lion tons of coal, worth in gross $780,
100000 and net 200,00O,0O0. This.
however, was one of several coal fields
in Alaska-one of which he consider
ed was promising as the Boring field.
Both Mr.. Birch and John n. Steele
general counsel for the syndicate,
stated that when in 1907 the syndicate
had procured an option on the Cum
ningham deposits they were unaware
of the fact that there was any question
of fraud as to the title to the claims.
So far they had expended no money
on the Cunningham property but were
ready to take up their option as soon
as the government may grant patents
to the claims.
| In response to questions from Sena-
| tor Beverage Mr.. Birch said that the
| syndicate had done nothing to infiu-
! ence action on the patents and that
the syndicate kept no lobbyists in
Washington. He said also that the
capital of thu syndicate was $4,000
| 900, owned half and half by Morgan
and the Guggenheins..
