That Sugar Is Higher Here Than in

CATION Several members of the COM
mlttee were anxious to go further into
the details of the conference between
h. .. Havemeyer and John Arbuckle
which terminated the great sugar war
Mr. Thomas testified yesterday that he
was at the Havemeyer home at the
time of the conference, but did not
hear what was said. A subcommittee
Will go to Mohonk Lake t. take Ar
buckles testimony, as he is too i'll to
appear here.
Before Congressman SuIzer started
to question Mr. Thomas Chairman

of Subcommittee composed Of
Representatives Sulzer, Malby, Jaco-
way and Kinds, with authority to ex-
anime and investigate all of the books
records and correspondence of the
American Sugar Refining company,
wherever located, to visit any plants
or refineries and then en- ploy any ex-
perts or assistants necessary and to re-
port to the whole committee
Mr.. Sulzer got Mr.. Thomas first to
say that his company could manufac-
ture sugar here as cheaDly or nearly
so, as it could be made in any other
country 1t was owing to the tariff, he
thought. that the price of sugar here

Mr. Thomas said tie American

MANY NOT RELEASED.
ChattcI Mortgages Satisfied But still
on Record.

On the records in the register of
deeds office are thousands of chattel
mortgages, presumably long since sat
Many of these mortgages are for small
and furniture in hundreds of homes in
Topeka and Shawnee county.
For many years the monthly INSTALL
ment business has expanded and is
now widely practiced by many Topeka
retail establishments. Household goods,
pianos and farming implements are
now sold extensively on the monthly
installment basis.
When Il purchaser buys a bill Of
goods. he Immediately gives a chautel
mortgage note for the unpaid amount
and this is recorded in the register Of
deeds office. No one ever forgets to
file these liens on personal property
but the records show numerous lapses
of memory in releasing the MORTGAGES
Recently Topeka man investigated
the records and found six MORTGAGES on
file covering articles in his home. on
all OF these the claims had been salts
ned, but none of the mortgages were
released. The next day a Topeka mer-
camille company made a hasty triD to
I the court house to clear the records.
Many of these small liens ara several
years old and there is every presun0n-
ton that the claims were satisfied

HEIRESS TO 10000, 900
The Countess De Lassy Is Being
Searched for in America.

New York, July 19.-The Russian
secret police are searching America
for the Countess O'Brien de Lassy,
wife of Russian nobleman who was
sentenced to a Siberian prison for life
in connection with the poisonings of
Doctor Pantchenko. The countess has
fallen heir to 10 million dollars left
| by her aunt, Nine. De Lazari who
died decently in Paris. Relatives be-
lieved that she had made a new will
in which the de Lassys were not men
toned.
The convicted count, who planned
wholesale murders for a fortune
small in comparison with the great
wealth of Nine. De Lazari, is the heir
OF his wife under the Russian law. In
case of her death he will have the dis
tinction of being the richest life pris-
oner in the world.
The de Lassys previous to the
shocking disclosures of the Pantheon
ko poisonings, which the count was
convicted of engineering, moved in
the highest Russian society and were
freely admitted to the court of the
car. The news that Nine. De Lazari
bequeathed her fortune to her niece
has caused a sensation and has stirred
the Russian authorities to Immediate
action in the strange disappearance
of the Countess de Lassy. Search for
her throughout Europe has been fruit
less. Now the Russian secret police
believe she came to America
Immediately after Count de Lassy
was sentenced to penal servitude in
Siberia for life. his wife was reported
! to have lost her reason. She had
| been forbidden to return to the horne
of her father. General Boturlin,
whose death her husband sought that
she might inherit the millions
De Lassy's fellow conspirator. Doc
tor Pantchenko. confessed that he had
brought about the death of the count
esss brother Count Vassilli Boturlin,
by inoculating him with cholera bac-
terra. The old general persisted in the
belief that his daughter had assisted
in the plot, though she was not di-
rectly accused at the trial. The old
aunt, Nine. De Lazari, who had been
a mother to her, moved to Paris to
escape from the scandal She also
had turned her niece from her.
Murder was the profession of Doc
tor Pantchenko of St. Petersburg. He
confessed last February that Count De
Lassy had given him $4,000 for kill
ing Count VassilH Bouturlin, and had
promised him $4,000 to poison Gen
eral Bouturlin, and 4 million dollars
! to poison the generals second wife.
In an incoherent speech just before
the verdict, he repudiated the confess
sion. His sentence was made fifteen
years, which. to his advanced age. will
mean life imprisonment. De Lassy,
who had attempted to eliminate the
heirs to a great Russian estate, was
sentenced to penal servitude for life.

.SURATT GETS DIVORCE.
Famous Dancer Is Given Her
Freedom.

New York, July 19.-Fletcher Nor
ton has been granted divorce from
Valeska Suratt. vaudeville star of po-
lice court fame. The referee. Emil
Goldmark, recommended that the
court grant the decree. and his dec1-
sion will go to Justice Greenbaum
whose confirmation will De a mere for
mality. Norton based his suit for di-
vorce on statutory grounds, in which
he named Robert Mackey, a wealthy
real estate operator, as correspondent
He also sued Mackey for 100000 for
alternating his wife's affections
In his decision the referee said that
the facts in the case were an offense
to the sense of decency- He said that
the marriage was entered into in a
spirit of pique. and he condemned the
actress for not offering defense.
Norton formerly was Miss Suratt S
leading man. After a night perform
ance, January IA, the couple made a
secret trip to Jersey City and were
married.
Miss Suratt several times startled
New Workers with original dances, and
once wound up in the police court as
the result of a Sunday night dance in
a New York theater with BILLY
Gould, in which it was said her cos
tune was a little too gay even for
New York In January, 1910, the
the women friends and members of
the Green Point branch of the Y M.
c. A. in Brooklyn arose and con-
demned her for staging a dance at the
assoc iation's house that, to say the
least. was decidedly unusual Miss
Suratt denied that she danced partly
undressed but just the same it was
some time before the women forgot
that "skirtless exhibition
But those are not all of Miss Suratt' S
escapades. Nor did she cause con-
domination every place she appeared.
In her own words. her dances were
vigorously applauded by her audiences.
Nevertheless. after most of her per-
formances. there were those who said
her costume was altogether too primi-
tive.

sold at public auction today by J. G.
Wood, receiver of the government land
office. It is the first government land
to be sold in Kansas in more than
six months

The second strip of real estate con-
sisted of 80 acres in Cheyenne county
and was sold to Joseph c. Lebow of
Bird City. For both of the tracts of
land the government received SIPS an
acre.
There is very little government land
left in Kansas at the present time. For
the few tracts which are unSold, there
have been numerous inquiries and the
government has found nc difficulty in
disposing of its Kansas soil at the pre-
vailing price of S1.25 All acre, which
is usually paid for such land.
