P. Flower, then governor of New
York, and several distinguished cleo
trical engineers from Europe inspected
the first undertaking of the company
which was organized to convert some
part of the energy that is in the Nj
agara river into electric energy. The
presumption at first was that the gen.
Grafton of electric energy equivalent
to many thousand horse power
through the conversion into 1t of the
energy that Is in the Niagara current
would serve chiefly for the develop
ment of a great manufacturing center
on the banks of the Niagara river. In
that presumption there was truth, but
not the whole truth. A few electrical
engineers ventured to predict that it
might be possible to convey the cleo
trio cur1 ent to commercial advantage
as far away as Buffalo, twenty Ave
miles, there furnishing electricity at
least to serve the city with light.
Science showed the way by which that
current could be conveyed to Buffalo
with sufficient energy not only to light
the city, but to operate all it's trolley
lines.
It was only year or two later when
engineers came to the United States
from india so that they might learn
and invention whether it would be
possible to convey to commercial ad-
vantage electric energy generated at
the falls of one of the great rivers of
lnO1a d DISTANCE OIL SOtIG H4AOby 4AA1ACS
SO that with this energy the gold
fields of the Mysore district could be
economically and satisfactorily work
ed. These engineers went back to
India, persuaded by the American
men of electric science that apparatus
of the kind could be built, and began
the construction of the plant.
It was in view of what had been
done in the way of carrying electric
energy created by the conversion into
it of water power energy that Mr.
Westinghouse was justified in urging
men of greater affairs of the south
to develop the splendid water powers
along the Appalachian range. He was
not pleading for his own apparatus
other corporations than his furnish
apparatus of that kind; the market
is open and free-he was pointing a
way to the acceptance of an indus
trial opportunity.
Whether it was as a result of what
Mr.. Westinghouse said or was due to
the impulse now so strongly prevail
ing throughout the south to accept the
great opportunities which lie in the
natural resources of that section, the
fact remains that very great invest
ment of capital, involving in the near
future possibly as much as hundred
million dollars, is to be made in the
development of the water powers of
the mid-south so that electric energy

C. K. LEAGUE MAY 9.
Kansas Circuit VIII Play 80 Games
This Summer.

Minneapolis, Kan, April 4.-The
schedule for what should prove to be
the strongest Kansas baseball organ
ization in years was announced here
today. The season opens May 8 and
calls for 80 games. Sunday baseball
will be played in most of the towns
and the schedule is so arranged that
games in towns where Sunday ball
is not allowed can be easily transfer
ed. The Central Kansas league this
year is formed of the towns that made
the best showing in the c.. K. league
last year and the best towns in the old
State league which died last summer
r. G.. Gafford, president of the orig
inaI Central Kansas league is presi-
dent of the new circuit. He is well
known throughout the central section
of the state as an exponent of square
baseball and has had several years ex-
pepience in directing smaller leagues.
He is a banker and his work in base
ball is due to his interest in the game.

New York, April Information
was brought to New York from Cali
fornia and from e Their sections of the
country west of the Missouri valley,
and particularly from the southwest,
some five weeks ago telling of the
purpose Of railway managers through
out that region to make very large
expenditures in payment of expan-
sions, the construction of branch or
feeding lines. the improvement of
roadbeds, double tracking and for
equipments which, if present plans
are carried out. will involve payment
of as much as five hundred million
dollars for these Improvements with
in the next two or three years.
Various details have reached New
York from that part of the country
since this general statement was re-
ported. These all tend to confirm
the accuracy of the report, at least
so far as it's general features are con-
cerned. OF course, it is recognized
that investments of capital of that
kind mean that the timidity which

tanned. One corporation now pur-
poses the. capture of water power in
the southern Appalachian range suhi-
cient to develop the equivalent of a
hundred thousand horse power in
electric energy. If this expectation is
realized then this plant will approach
in the magnitude of it's operations the
development of electric energy on the
Canadian side of the Niagara river.
Word has come to this city from tn
south that another corporation which
has persuaded English and Canadian
capital to make investment in 1T ex-
poets ultimately to have developed a
water power plant capable of creating
electric energy of as much as four
hundred thousand horse power. That
would be sufficient to operate many
of the Industries and practically all of
the trolley traffic of northern Georgia.
Behind these purposes is to be dis
covered the impulse which seems to
be asserting itself all over the coun-
try. It is the impulse which, unless
restrained, or blocked by demagogy,
is to develop that era of American
prosperity which so many of our ADLER
business men have forecasted, but the
possibilities of which, they say, stag
ger the imagination.
In New England business men ex-
pect to see a large increase in the
activities of textile industries, espe-
cially cotton. The opening of the en-
larged Erie canal and the establish
ment of the great tidewater terminal
at Gowanus bay, Brooklyn, is expect
ed, indirectly, at least, to stimulate
industry and manufacturing in New
York state. The attitude of the BUSH
ness world, at least of the leaders of
great affairs, now appears to be one
of expectancy and the situation in
this respect is different from any that
has prevailed at this time of the year
since 1905.

MILLSPAUGH ASKS HELP
Needs an Assistant to Do Part of HIS
Work.


Bishop Frank r. Millspaugh. because
of impaired health, has written letter
to the clergy and laity of the Episcopal
Diocese of Kansas, requesting the cleo
ton of a coadjutor or assistant bishop
to relieve him of a portion of his work.
Last fall Bishop Millspaugh spent
several weeks in Christ's hospital. Since
that time he has not been able to per-
form the full amount of work that his
office requires. The new assistant will
do most of the travelling from one part
of the diocese to another, while Bishop
MilIspaugh will direct the work from
Topeka.
Bishop Millspaugh was elected to his
present position in 1895. In 1894 he came
to Topeka as dean Of Grace Cathedral.
Following is the letter written by the
bishop:

VOWED in the reported drunken orgy
among state troops in the recent
army maneuvers have set up an un-
usual defense. They contend that
the close fitting, modish gowns of
the young women who claim to have
been insulted were so extreme in
style and of such a character as to
make the soldiers suppose they we're
in the same class with the disorderly
women who lowered about the
maneuver camp.
The official investigation into the
affair is being conducted secretly and
newspaper correspondents with the
two armies agree that the investiga-
ton so far has shown no such orgies
as We're described.
The investigators were able to
find no specific case of an attack on
woman, but there were many
women of bad character in the vicin-
ity of the camps. and the nearest APP
proach to attacks on women thus far

who confessed he was ordered by Pc

man on Tuesday, that as collector Tor
Becker, he knew the annual protec-
ton fund divided among members of
the police department to be not less
than s2.4O0.00O.
This annual yield OF s2,400.0O0 pro

cording to the story told by Rose,
among four high officials Of the police
department, one of them being Becker.
and from other evidence the district
attorney has collected he has. reason
to suspect that each 100000 was
further distributed.
1t is believed there we're four sep
arate systems or bureaus of graft
collection, each headed by a high pc
lice official
Mr.. Whitman has the names OF the
other three police officials whom Rose
hay accused. and bis further efforts
in this now most sensational police
exposure that New York has ever seen
will be directed toward Strengthening
the evidence which points against
them. One OF the officials named, 1t
was learned, holds a position at head
quarters and is in a strict sense
civilian employe.
The name of a former prominent
city official has been brought to the
attention of the district attorney az.

that the evidence thus far obtained
against him is not of tangible ma
ture. The evidence, however. is being
closely followed by detectives.

men higher up" no effort will be
made to enforce the extreme penalty
for the crime OF which he now stands
accused-the murder of Rosenthal-
but ne will be granted leniency on
that condition only.
The alleged fact Of the S2,400.0C0
graft fund was told to him by Becker.
Rose said in sworn statement. Beck
er, he said, told him that he handled
$500, 900 a year and that equal amounts
were handled by@three other officials.
This, he said, came in collections
from gambling houses. poolrooms,

most prominent men have determined
that District Attorney Whitman shall
not want for money to carry ont his
