request from Kansas City. where she
had been enticed from her nome

and wife.
Her brother, Severia Pancoma. with
Officer Withers of the Kansas City
police department, came to Topeka
today to get her. No warrant had
been issued for the arrest of the Nc
Giese couple so the local police did
not detain them last night. They now
have information in Kansas city
which leads them to believe it was a
case of white slavery, according TO
the officer who came today The
brother is anxious to prosecute the
abductors of his sister and is urging
that a warrant be issued. As she was
brought from Missouri. the case is a
federal one.
The girl has been here since July

her here after a few days at La

WOOL BILL TO PASS.
Little Doubt Now of the Success OF the
Democrat Measure.

Washington, July 25.-As the result
of a series of conferences held today,
the prediction was freely made in the
senate that the upper house of con-
gress on Thursday would adopt the
house wool bill. This will put the
wool issue squarely up to President
Taft. Democratic Leader Underwood
today served notice that the house
would not accept the La Toilette bill.
While President Taft in a recent
speech denounced schedule K wool
and woolens of the Payne-Aldrich law
as s'indefensible," he also has indicated
that he would prefer to have a re-
vision of the schedule await the re-
port of the tariff board promised IN
December. The president has not
definitely indicated, however, that ne
would use the veto power.
The positive statement was made
this afternoon by senators protesting
to know that at least five insurgent
Republicans and one regular Republi-
can would take the house measure if
they could not get the La Toilette bill.
This would insure a majority for that
measure. The Republican leaders also
received this information and several
of them expressed the opinion that the
house wool bill would pass the senate
Senator Poindexter predicted that
the house bill would in the end be &C.
cepted. He said he would vote for the
La Toilette measure as a substitute.
but in case of its failure he would cast
his ballot for the house bill. He said
Senator's Clapp, Brown and others felt
as he did.
The Democratic senator's will hold a
caucus tonight.

Renewing Compilations
By Absorption

If your complexion is marred with
blotches, moth patches, pimples or
freckles it's useless to putter with
powders and paints, lotions, creams
and things, in an effort to get rid of the
trouble. Unless you have some ability
as an artist you'll mar your appear
ance still more.
The new and rational way is to take
off the complexion itself, with all its
offensive marks. Just get an ounce Of
pure mercolized wax at the druggists
and use at night same as cold cream.
Remove next morning with water and
soap, following with dash of cold water.
The mercolized wax absorbs the half
dead scarf skin in flaky particles. so
gradually no one guesses you're treat
ing your face-unless it be by the re-
suit. which is truly wonderful There's
nothing like it for restoring a natural,
healthy and beautiful complexion

Papers in the Wiley Case Submitted
by Secretary Wilson.

Washington. July 25.=Secretary OF
Agriculture Wilson brought the papers
in the case of DIR. Harvey w. Wiley to
the White House today. He refused to
say what recommendations he had
made to the president regarding the
charges against the pure food expert
whose resignation from the service waz
recommended by the personal board OF
the department and by Attorney Cen
eral Wickershan.
Mr. Wilson reached the White House
some time before the cabinet meeting
and had an opportunity to discuss tho
Wiley case with the president before
the session began. He said he did not
know whether his recommendations
would be acceptable to the president or
not. He declared. however, that there
could be no clash between him and Mr.
Taft because if the recommendation
made today We're not agreeable to the
president he could change them. It
was inferred from the tenor of Mr.
Wilson'S remark that the recommends
tions were not favorable to Mr.. Wiley
There is every reason to believe.
however. that DR.. Wiley. at worst Will
receive but a mild reprimand.
At the conclusion of the cabinet
meeting several members said the
Wiley case had not been discussed but
added that the president had talked T.
over with Secretary Wilson. Mr. Will
son said the papers in the case had
been left with the president.

son to come down with the disease that
mas claimed nine victims on the East
side.
Mrs. Shaw is the wife of a grocer do
ing business at the corner of Eighth

on the part of the city physicians
proved that the report was untrue. Mr..
French is in a critical condition on ae-
count of his wife's death.
Commissioner Stotts has been SPEND
ing the last few days warning the peo-
ole against moving from the smallpox
district. In one case after family
had left the East side and rented an
other house Commissioner Stotts has
moved the family back to their old
quarters. The people are sacrificing
themselves rather than spread the dis
ease to other parts of the city.

TRAFFIC IS RESUMED.
Blue Flooded Tracks Between Marys-

Traffic was resumed today on the
Marysville- Beatrice branch of the I'm
ion Pacific after being tied up Mon
day by a rise in the Big Blue river
Sunday night. The flood was caused
from excessive rains. The tracks be-
tween the towns were under water from
tow to five feet according to reports
received a. the Union Pacific office here
Monday noon. However, word was re-
ceived today that the water had gone
down and the tracks were safe for
traffic.
This was surprise to the Union
Pacific people here. They judged from
the dispatch received Monday that the
line would not be open until tomorrow
at least. The Topeka Marysville
branch was unaffected and the motor
car made its regular trip Monday al
ternoon.
