RIaine Monroe COnfeSseS Murder
of Reno County Farmer.
Saws He Gave Poison in Candy
to Frank Speer.

Hutchinson, Kan, Jan. 19.-Blaine
Monroe, 26 years old, under arrest
here, confessed today that he killed
Frank Speer, a farmer, near Laredo,
last Sunday night.
Monroe in his confession stated to
the Reno county authorities, that he
gave Speer candy which contained
strychnine. Speer ate it and believing
he was poisoned attempted to tele-
phone for a physician, Monroe said
that he then shot Speer.

tack. Monroe said he found oE@g so
cents in Speer's home.

He was employed to do chores by a
physician by the name of Dr. Barr.
Sunday night he left Laredo suddenly,

who had been on the trail of the young
man, placed him under arrest as he
was going to bed Tuesday night When
searched so cents was found on his
person, but that was all in the way of
money.

Emma Goldman Forced to Seek An

Columbus, Jan. 19.-Considerable stir
was created among the United Mine

THAT APPROPRIATION BILL.

An effort was made by the Topeka
Daily Capital this morning to mislead
the members of the Kansas legislature
by casting a reflection upon the State
Journal. It was stated that the MEM
bers would be unable to draw their
pay today, because the State Journal
had neglected to print the appropria-
tion bill.
The fact is that the appropriation
bill which was passed on Wednesday
was not signed by the governor until
today and was not presented for pub
hcation at the State Journal Office un-
til 10 o'clock this morning. Therefore
it would have been impossible for the
have published the bill on Wednesday.
This explanation is made so that the
members of the legislature may not
have an erroneous impression of the
with the attitude of the morning paper
in all things concerning the State
Journal this would not have been nee
essary. This paper is proud of it's
position as the official state paper of
Kansas and will do all it can to merit
the confidence with which it has been
entrusted.
The morning paper might make some
effort to get it's facts straight before
it tries by petty means to misrepresent
and injure its contemporary, but it
doesn't. The State Journal realizes that
the reaction from misstatements al
ways hurts the paper in which they or
iginate worse than it does the paper
