Urchin Shows Police
Stores He Robbed

With mingled feeling Of gladness and
regret, Jesse jackson. a diminutive ne
gro urchin Of ten years, is today max
ing a tour of a dozen or more grocery
stores of the southwest section.
Jesse is accompanied by a policeman
Of the Fourth precinct, and he is telling
the officer just which of the stores he
and his fourteen-year- chum, Rich
ard Queen, have robbed during the past
two weeks. Jesse is glad to do it, for
he expects a lighter sentence on a full
confession of his sins, but he neverthe-
less regrets that he has sinned 50 much.
For two weeks the police of the
Fourth precinct have been trying to
catch the thieves who have persistently
entered small grocery stores in that
section of the city. The robberies were
in no case large; in fact, the most seri-
Gus case against the two boys is the
theft of IS in money and an old watch
from the store OF Samuel 1ubinsky, at
1881 First street southwest
About fifteen complaints OF storekeep-
ers were registered before the police
got their hands on the culprits. Jesse
and Richard were arrested, together
with a third boy Samuel Lewis, who
was later discharged. An effort will be
made to place the two boys in a re-
form school.

Question Finality of
Fishers Coal Ruling

Whether Secretary Fishers decision
on the Cunningham claims case, which
is expected to be announced within the
next week, will be final or not, is the
much-discussed question here today.
1t is pointed out that, in case the de-
cision is unfavorable to the Cunning
hams, that appeal will be made to the
courts by the syndicate. The depart
ment claims that the Secretary's de-
cision will be final and cannot be ap-
pealed.
According to the attorneys who have
followed the case, there is one opening
by which appeal can be made, or by
which the case can be brought before
the courts. That, they claim, is through
mandamus proceedings.
The department is satisfied, however,
that If a writ of mandamus is applied
for, the courts will decide that the case
was within the jurisdiction of the Secre-
tary, and that his decision is final in
such cases.

1t is expected the entire State will
honor the memory Of Mrs. Nation when
she is laid to rest in Kansas City to-
morrow. Preparations for the funeral
have not been completed owing to the
delay in sending the body to Kansas
City. The funeral arrangements are in
charge Of Mrs. Nations nephew.
1t was Mrs. Nation who first made
the State name of Kansas a national
by-word. The whole country Is familiar
with her saloon-smashing crusades, and
her war upon the cigarette. She started
her public career by wrecking a bar.
room Of the Cary Hotel in Wichita, ir
December, 1900. For this first crusade
she spent several days In jail.
This was the start. For the next
several months she kept the entire State
In turmoil, turning up Unexpectedly al
the smaller cities, and always leaving
trail of wrecked bar fixtures Her
crusade caused the closing OF the Kan

her activities to other States.

He went into the details of the famil-
lar story Of the tampering with the
scales at the latter docks.
Chairman Beall observed that IT was
unfortunate that the powerful machin-
cry of the Government had been used
to prosecute the cotton bulls and that
no action had been taken against the
bears, those who depress the prices of
cotton.
Il have heard that complaint BEFORE"
said the District Attorney" and l have
said that if any one would present me
among the cotton bears i would prose-
cute them. Ny office has never seen
any evidence whatever as yet. No
tangible information has ever been pre-
scented as to the cotton bears"
Chairman Beall asked Mr.. Wise II he
realized there were two factions on the
New York Cotton Exchange-the bulls
and the bears.
Yes, but don't think either of them
do the producer of cotton any good"
was the reply. IF you want my opin-
ion, the cotton exchange is a gambling
shop"
