Hutchinson, kan, May 24.-The
Johnston Construction company OF

preparing to start the work.
The Santa Fe also seems to be in
control of the Gulf road between Gar
den City and Scott City, and which is
now being extended on north from
Scott City. The rumor in Santa Fe
circles is that the road will begin oper-
ating the line June 1.
1t seems to be foregone conclusion
that there will be nothing done on the
proposed extension south from Garden
City to Liberal.
Nothing has been heard lately OF
the winnipeg" road, which was pro-
jected to build from Salina south
through Sterling, Sylvia, Turon and on
to the Oklahoma line. The promoters
run up against an obstacle at Sterling
and Lyons.
Fhe promoters of the "Southe stern

busy. This road is projected to build

as to who is ''behind" this IS. K. & c. -
project. Some claim it to be Rock
Island enterprise. Others think the
Missouri Pacific means it to be an ex-
tension from Hartner.
There are no developments in the
yelling Hutchinson railway pro-
ject. There is considerable activity in
the Wellington end of the line which
has been surveyed from Arkansas City
to Cheney Nothing has yet been done
on the section between Cheney and
Hutchinson.
The Santa Fe seems to be getting

cials are at the head, has been filing

Chicago, May 4-wHEAT-Dry weather
In Russia and expected lighter shipments
from the Argentine put wheat today on
the up grade. In addition LIVERPOOL re-
ported good demand there and consider
able covering by shorts. Locally senti-
ment had fair cause for bullishness, the
May option giving evidence Of increased
strength. Deferred months also showed
continued support. Besides, there were
adv1ces at hand that a large acreage in
Nebraska had been ploughed up for corn
planting because of the damage to winter
wheat by heavy winds. Assertions were
current, too, that the Texas crop would
not be more than one-third to one-half
the total raised last year.
Opening prices were the same as last
night to sc higher. July started at $3.50

After some reaction the market rose

patches from Oklahoma Profit taking
however occasioned a decided setback.
The close was easy with July S77s@Ssc, a

the big consumption on farms and the
heavy shipments from leading centers.

YES,THEY WANT IT
People of Great Bend Entertain
Board Of Control.
Explain Why They Are Asking
for New Asylum.
GIVE THE FIGURES.
Show Advantageous Location of
the Town.
Would Result in Least Expense
to State.

Great Bend, Kan, May 24.-The state
board of control spent the day here in
Vestigating the claims of this place
for the proposed state hospital. Messrs.
board arrived in the morning from
Pratt where they gave the fish hatch
cry town hearing Monday
Both Pratt and Great Bend offered
sites for the new asylum worth from
$4,000 to $4,000. These sites are located
outside of the towns and are 60 acres
in size. Western Kansas land is worth
500 an acre these piping days of good
crows.
At Great Bend the board was met at
the depot by Editors w. P. FEEDER of
the Democrat, Will Townsley of the
Tribune, and Messrs. R. A. Charles,
Nicholas Smith, Clayton Moses, Louis
Zutevern, Fred Zutevern, r. G. Rus
sell, DR.. r. H. Meade, NJ. F. Russell.
William Osmond and Arthur Taylor.
After showing their guests the town
the Great Bend boosters served then.
a banquet and listened to the oratory
of Charles Shukers and Harry Bow
man after the repast. The claims of
Great Bend for the new state hospital
are worthy of consideration 1t is be-
lieved that the board was impressed
with the showing of the Seventh dis
trict town and the advantages offered
for the location of a state institution
here. The argument made by all the
seventh dlSlTlCL towns on the DOarQ 5
schedule is that the Seventh district
is entitled to the plum over the claims
of the Sixth district from the fact that
the latter is better fixed with state in
situations than the former.
The Reasons Why .
The claims of Great Bend were set
forth by the boosters at the banquet
as follows:
''In further support of the applica-
ton for Great Bend for the location
of the new state hospital we submit
the following:
"Great Bend is located on two lines
of transcontinental railways. the
Santa Fe and the Missouri Pacific,
east to west, and which, with their
many miles of branch lines all sched-
uled to make close and good connec-
tions, give the city a network of rails
covering the entire state. These roads
serve the city with fourteen passenger
trains, giving our city at least 100 per
cent better accommodations for receiv-
ing passengers than that of any other
city asking for the location of this in
stitution.
Draw a circle one hundred miles
around Great Bend. and you will find
the following counties to be entirely
within that circle: Graham, Rocks
Osborne. Mitchell, Dickinson Marion.
Sedgwick. Harvey. Harper, Kingman.
