Strong Statements Made by R.
w. Lilley Who Declares
Violation Of Law Com
mon Occurrence.
AND HE HAS THE PROOF
Says Administration is Either
Incompetent or Indifferent
Keokuk Should be a
Clean City.
To the Editor Of The Gate City:

: = .iAO 11aihoi VI ilc Odle SIty
Recently some criticism has been
made in regard to civic conditions in
our city. The objection to the criticism
was that 1t seemed hazy and indef1-
mite. AS citizen who is interested
in the welfare of the city along every
line OF its welfare want to say few
things, just as an ordinary citizen
who does not set himself up as a
critic nor as one competent to run
the city. Nor would I for one mo-
ment misrepresent any man inten-
tionally. know it is easy and often
cheap and popular to criticise public
officials. / think. the most Of us are
inclined to criticise and condemn
them when they do wrong and fail
to commend them when they do right.
However, I believe it to be my duty
to say few things in regard to pres
ent conditions in our city.
That gambling, blind tigers, or
"holes in the wall" and houses OF
prostitution are running seven days
in the week in open violation Of the
law and under the eyes Of the police
department, there is no doubt. II
such doubt exists in the minds of
any citizen let him call for the proof.
Every sane person knows that these
are all evils and that the police can
not drive them out unless they have
the power to cast the devils out OF
the human heart. But the loose and
open way that our city is being run
at present shows beyond the shadow
of doubt that the present admins
tration is incompetent. This Is not
politics, rant, hot air nor the result
|,of prejudice. | am stating facts. II
is not personal quarrel with city
officials. So far as know they are

NEW YORK, Sept. 21.--In its issue
of Monday, Financial America Will
say:
After long period of dullness the
stock market during the past week
emerged from the rut in which it had
rested, and gave evidence of increased
interest both on the part of the out
side public and of the large operators
who on many occasions have had
much to do with directing price move
ments. The result of this activity
was an upward movement in which
nearly all the stocks made gains rang
ing from one to over eight points, and
on the advances the buying power, in
stead of becoming less, increased in
volume, and in influence on security
values. The movement started with
the operations Of a couple of the larg-
err room traders who concentrated
their efforts on a few stocks and were
able without much exertion to force
sharp advances in those issues. IT
seemed at the time that 1t was to be
again a bull market of single day IS
duration for on the following day
these operators realized profits on
their previous days purchases, and
their selling was supplemented by
profit-taking sales from other sources
1t was quickly demonstrated that
there was far more to the market
strength, than the speculative tran
sactions of these traders. The stocks
sold were quickly absorbed and later
in the week a broadening demand ap
peared with the buying orders better
distributed than they had been for
months.

OFF TO MILWAUKEE.

CHICAGO, Oct 14.-Col. Theodore
Roosevelt, with the bigger part of to-
days campaign schedule cancelled
rested quietly in his apartments here.
At 3 o'clock the colonel will depart
for Milwaukee where he will address
a night meeting. A number of little
speeches to have been delivered is
nearby Indiana and Wisconsin towns
were given up because the Rough Ri
der is suffering from overworked vo-
cal cords. s=s,--.---... .l-...-...- -......
The two big meetings in Chicago
proved too much of an effort for the
strenuous campaigner. At 6 o'clock
Sunday morning, the colonel woke
with distressing pain in his throat
He summoned DR.. Terrell, of Dallas,
Tex, his physician.
The doctor found that the vocal
chords had been strained. There was
no congestion and no complications
are expected. The doctor, however, ad
vised the colonel to cut down his eff
forts to a single speech day to be
made in a closed hall. The effort OF
addressing the tent meeting here Sat
urday is believed to have been the
direct cause of the strain.
Following the physicians instruc
tions the colonel spent the greater
part of yesterday in his apartments.

GAS AND CREAM

Pupils Taught How to Sc

The problem of securing the maxi

science department of the local high
school, under the direction of Prof.
B. w. Kelly, head of that department.
A gas meter, which will register one

pills under Prof. Kelly are working on
a program of the candle power of diff

amount of gas consumed.
we desire to show the pupils that
the greatest amount of efficiency may
be secured by not using the maximum
amount of gas" said Professor Kelly
in talking on the matter.

that Becker said, That has
gone to see McAdoo, Gaynor and Wal

HAD TWO OUTBREAKS.

RAWLINS, Wyo., Oct. 14.-Armed
men today are searching house to
house in Rawlins for two of the twen-
ty fugitiyes from the state prison
here at liberty after the wholesale de-
liveries of yesterday and Saturday. In
the hills back of Rawlins two posses
are trailing eighteen others of the des-
perate men who broke from the prison
stockade. Two companies of militia
under arms waited during the morn
ing for word from Governor Carey
that might send them after the con-
victs or to subdue a riot in the prison
itself.
Citizens of Rawlins are in a state of
semi-panic following the double deliv-
cry and the desperate fighting within
and just outside the city which has
resulted in the death of nine persons
and the wounding of twelve others.
Following the last outbreak which
occurred Sunday night and which re-
suited in the death of two men and
the wounding of a number of others,
the mayor has placed an armed guard
of volunteer citizens around the prison
to prevent convicts escaping into the
town.
In all ten men engaged in the second
delivery. They overpowered ward
en- and marched out of the stockade
after arming themselves with all the
weapons they could find. Just out
side the stockade they encountered
Fred Stauffers who was returning
from a hunting excursion. He attempt
ed to halt them and was shot dead. A
short distance further the men en-
countered John Small, livery man,
who tried to stop them. Small was
wounded and the convicts fled to the
railway yards where they hid behind
freight cars. The prison guards pur-
sued them through the town. A bat
tie was fought in the yards and An
tone Pasquales, leader of the convicts
was killed. Two of the others were
captured. Others were wounded but
escaped.
- In all thirty men have broken from
the stockade and twenty are still at
liberty. Among them is Butch" Dal-
ton, life termer, serving for murder
