PERKINS QUITS MORGAN.
VIII Devote His Time to Work of q
Public Nature.

New York, Dec. ;10.-George w. Per-
kins has announced his retirement from
the firm of ]. P. Morgan & Co., to de-
vote his time to extending the princi-
pies of profitsharing and other benefit
plans for solving the conflict between
capital and labor. The announcement
says in part:
"On January 1, will have been with
the firm of j. P. Morgan & Co. ten
years and engaged in business activi-
ties over 80 years. 1 am withdrawing
to devote more time to corporation work
and work of a public nature in which
1 am deeply interested.
I'm continuing my relations with the
industrial and other business organiza-
tion with which am connected, hope
to find further opportunity for extend
ing the principles Of profit sharing and
other benefit plans which, experience
has shown, offer practical solution OF
some of the difficulties existing between
capital and labor.
"At Columbia university two years
ago and at Harvard university last
spring, 1 spoke of the importance of
solving the new problems at present
facing the country and which have fol-
lowed the organization of the great CO.
operative combination Of capital, and
it is my hope that the experience have
lad may enable me to contribute some
thing toward the adjustment of those
matters, which seem to me to be or the
largest consequence to the country"
Before he entered ]. p. Morgan & Co,
Mr.. Perkins was vice president and
general manager of the New York Life
Insurance company.

CURTIS FOR FUNSTON
Calls at White House to Urge Promo
ton HonOrs.

Washington, Dec. Ex-senator Curtis
of Kansas was at the White House
Friday afternoon to urge the promotion
of Brigadier General Frederick Fun
ston to the rank of major general to
succeed Major General Duvall, who soon
retires.
While Senator Curtis, supported by
the Kansas congressional delegation,
and a number of senators from other
states, are urging the appointment of
General Funston, the war department,
it is understood, is opposed to his pro-
motion at this time. The impression
prevails in military circles that Briga-
der General Murray, chief of the coast
artillery, will be given the next vacan-
cy in the rank of major general. Aside
from the recommendation of the war
department, General Murray has the
Endorsement of more senators and MEM
bers than General Funston.
1t is stated that an order is under
consideration at the war department by
which General Funston will be sent to
the Philippines in the next army trans
port to take command of the depart
ment of Luzon.
Brigadier General R. D. Potts, COM
mander of this department, is in Wash
ington on leave of absence, but will not
be sent back to the Philippines to COM
plete his tour of duty there. Instead
he will be detailed as commandant of
the army service school at Fort Leav-
enWOrth, Kan.

bors bill reported to the house by the

December 10. 1877, Justice Harlan

HUNTS HER BROTHER.
Topeka Woman Writes to Salina for
Information.

Salina. Kan, Dec. 10.-Who knew a
Mr.. Goldsmith who lived here short
time ago?
Another lost relative is being sought
and he too, once was resident OF Sa-
lima. The facts about him are vague
for there is no other clew given than
that he once lived here.
Mrs. A. e. Goldsmith, living at 1713
East Crane street, Topeka, has written
a card to Postmaster Hull asking for
information regarding the man. The
letter says.
''Can you give us any information OF
Mr.. Goldsmith who used to live in Sa-
lima? We are seeking a long lost broth
er and would be very glad for any in
formation you might give"
Mr.. Hull has been unable to locate
any man by the name of Goldsmith.

The Engineers of the Western
Railroads Nearly Unanimous
For a Walk-Out Unless Their
Terms Are Met.
THEIR ULTIMATUM
Will Be Presented to the Mana
gers Next Monday.
Probably Will Be Met With Of
fer to Arbitrate.

Chicago, Dec. 1O.-Backed by an al
most unanimous strike vote of $4,000
engineers on all the western railroads,
Warren G. Stone, grand chief of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
has arrived in Chicago to present an
ultimatum to the railroad managers.
Some of the chairmen of the different
systems reached the city last night
and others will arrive today.
The railroad managers, who have
been in conference with representa-
tives of the Brotherhood of Railroad
Trainmen and the Order of Railroad
Conductors for two weeks, adjourned
their conference until Tuesday, so as to
permit the resumption of negotiations
with the engineers on Monday. Mr..
Stone will announce the official count
of the strike vote then.
The men are asking for an advance
of about 15 per cent in wages. The
railroads, who have offered an 8 per
cent increase, probably will offer to ar
bitrate the controversy under the Erd-
man law

engers Bound for Europe.
GOlng to Spend Christmas in
Native Land.
RUSH is INCREASING.
Somewhat Heavier Than 1t Was
Last Year.
Total for This Week Is Twenty
Five Thousand.

New York, Dec. 10-Eleven transat-
lantic steamships sailing from this port
today will land about 11.000 steerage
passengers in Europe before Christmas
day.
This marks the food-tide of the ex-
odus of those who go abroad each year
to spend the holidays in their native
land. Steamship men say that the
holiday traffic this year has been if
anything, a little better than last
Christmas. The vessels departing today
are the st. Paul for Southampton,
kaiserin Auguste Victoria, Hamburg;
Cedric, Liverpool; Lapland, Antwerp;
Columbia, Glasgow; Lithunia, Rotter-
dam; Nieuw Amsterdam, Rotterdam; /;
Princess Irene, Naples; Duca De Ge-
nova, Naples. and the Gascogne, for
Havre.
The Christmas rush eastward begins
each year about the first of December
and it is almost entirely confined to the
steerage. The total number of steer
age passengers out of New York dur
ing the present week is close to 25, 900.

BIG SANTA FE PROJECT.
Railroad Will Spend $1,50O,OO0 on
Wichita Tracks.

Kansas City, Dec. 10.-One and one
half million dollars is to be spent by
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe rail-
way elevating a mile of it's tracks in
Wichita. Six parallel tracks are to be
raised above the street level so trains
may run through the town without dam
ger of accidents at the street crossings.
1t is not improbable that all the other
railroads in Wichita except the Mis-
souri, Pacific will use the Santa Fe's
elevated tracks. That may mean the
building Of union station for that
city, to be used by the Santa Fe, the
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific, the
Kansas City. Mexico & Orient and the
ST. Louis & San Francisco.
A. c. Jobes, vice president of the First
National bank, is director of the
Santa Fe. He returned today from New
York where he attended a meeting of
the directors. The improvement for
Wichita was decided upon at that meet
ing.
1.-THE work probably will begin in a
few weeks Mr.. Jobes said. 1T should
be finished some time next year.

HABEAS CORPUS WRIT.
Is Granted in the Case of Porter
Charlton at Trenton.

Trenton, N. J., Dec. 10.-Judge Rell-
stab in the United States circuit court
today granted a writ of habeas corpus
in the case of Porter Charlton who is
accused of having killed his wife, Mary
Scott Castle Charlton in Italy.
The, court also granted a. writ of
certiorari for the bringing of the case
before him on December 10.
Washington, Dec. 10-Secretary
Knox has granted the request of Italy
for the surrender of Porter Charlton
charged with the murder of his wife
at Lake Como. The secretary holds
that the fact that Italy refuses to sur
render her citizens to the United
States for trial does not relieve this
country from the obligation of the
extradition treaty to surrender to Italy
fugitives from justice from that coun-
try. The question of the sanity of
Charlton, it is suggested, is one for
the courts and not for the department
to determine.
Had Secretary Knox refrained from
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1910-12-10

acting upon this case for six days, Por-
ter Charlton would have been free, as
the statutes required final action with
in so days from the date of commit
ment. The legal contention of coun-
sci of the accused on Italys refusal to
surrender her own citizens and the
point that the Italian demand for
Charltons surrender had not been
made in strict accordance with the
requirements of the treaty are. swept
away by the secretary as without basis
and the committing magistrates pro-
ceedingS are found to have been regu-
lar in all respects.
A closing remark by the secretary
is significant, carrying the intimation
that Charltons attorney may have
further recourse to the courts if they
are disposed to raise the question of
insanity. The decision relates the
history of the case. beginning with the
arrest of Charlton in New York on
June "a, last, on complaint of the
Italian vice consul.
In concluding his memorandum in
the case Secretary Knox says:
''In determining the meaning which,
as matter of public morals, ought to
be given to an extradition treaty, it
must be remembered that under our
constitution and laws it is not possible
to punish criminals in this country for
crimes committed against the peace
and dignity of foreign governments
and that, therefore, unless we surren-
der to such foreign governments for
trial and punishment therein, our cit
izens committing crimes within the
Jurisdiction of such government such
citizens will go wholly unwhipped by
Justice.
For these reasons, it is decided
that the government Of thek United
States should surrender to the gov
ernment of Italy Porter Charlton.
charged with the crime of murder,
which crime he has confessed.
Counsel for the prisoner also con-
tends that Charlton should not now
be surrendered because the commit
ting magistrate refused to receive tes-
timony tending to prove his insanity,
If the magistrate erred in thus refus-
ing such testimony, the prisoner has
his remedy in the courts and it is not
for the departments at this stage OF
the proceedings to pass upon this
question"

TRIED FOR THEIR LIVES.
KortoIxu and 25 Others Arraigned for
Plotting to Kill MikadO.

Toxic, Dec. 1O.-The public trial of
Denjoro Kortoku and twenty-five as
sociates. including his wife, was opened
in the supreme court today. The spe-
cial court which first examined the
prisoners found all of them guilty of
plotting against the life of the en-
peror and recommended capital pun
ishment. The alleged conspiracy was
uncovered in September. Kortoku. as
serted to be the leader of the plotters,
was formerly connected with Toxic
newspaper and at one time lived in
America, where, it is said. he was asso-
ciated with a political organization
with headquarters in San Francisco.
All of the accused are described by
the police as anarchists.
Though the present proceedings are
nominally public, those not directly
concerned with the trial were admit
ted only during the forma, question
ing of the defendants. This over, the
court room was cleared and the trial
proceeded. 1t will continue several
days.
It is expected the death sentence
will be returned, though there is
possibility of communication.
The present is the first trial in which
the accusation is plotting against the
life of the emperor and it is consid-

MANUEL IS BROKE. 5"
Dethroned King Has Not Enough
Money to Pay His Servants.

Rome, Dec. 10.-The Tribuna prints
an interview with a Portuguese person
age, whose name is not mentioned, but
who is said to be a leading royalist,
concerning Manuel II, the exilcd king
of Portugal.
Manuel he says, is poverty stricken
and unable to choose place of resi-
dence. Owing to lack of money, the de-
throned king has been compelled to ac-
cept the hospitality of the Duke of
Orleans at Wood Norton, Eversham,
England For three months he has not
had means with which to pay his own
servants.
Manuel, according to the interview,
hopes that he will be restored to pow
er, insisting that a republic in Portugal
can not exist. His friends predict that
a congress of the powers will settle
Portuga1s affairs, but say that other
wise the royalists are ready to fight
for the restoration of the monarchy.

EXPENSIVE LOVE AFFAIR
A. b. SimlicI Didn't Get Presents Back
and Is Fined SO Besides.

A. B. Simlick's love for sixteen
year-old Rosa Cannon cost the man
from Canada $11.50 in police court
Friday afternoon, which amount the
young man must add to the $1,000
which he says his love affair has al
ready cost him. Mrs. Gam, a niece
of the girl, testified that Simlick. dis
turbed the peace and Qulerude of her
home when he called to collect the
money and jewelry bestowed upon the
girl of his heart.
= The niece said that Simlick had
once threatened to kill her and that
she was afraid he meant it. Detec-
tives Golf and Voiles said the mem
bers of the family seemed badly ex-
cited when they arrived at the house.
Simlick wanted to tell the court of
love letters and money and jewelry,
but Judge Urny declared that it was
not proper defense and would not
listen. The defendant admitted that
he did not leave the house when he
was told to do SO, and Judge Urmy
fined him $40 and costs.
After the trial Simlick said both
his heart and pocketbook were broken
and that he would go to New York
and try to forget.
1.-THE girl didn't treat me right de-
clered Simlick, when she threw me
down after I spent all my money on
her. I didn't intend to disturb any
one, 1 just wanted my things back,
that's all. I loved Rosa and wanted
her to love me, but she wouldn't do it.
Now, I will go away and try to for
get it,
