Voted Bonds Of $4,000, to be Used
for Sanitation, Fire Protection
and Storm Sewers.

Jefferson City. Dec. 29.-Jefferson
City voted a bonded indebtedness of
$4,000 for public Improvements. Thus
is redeemed a pledge to the people OF
the state in the event building a new
capitol was approved last August. The
affirmative vote was Overwhelming:
There were five propositions and the
lowest majority any one received was
9 to /. Among the improvements
will be long viaduct over Goose
Creek, reaching on the east almost to
the new Supreme Court building, the
strengthening out and sanitation OF
the crooked creeks that wander
through the city from two directions,
an up-to-date FIRE department, street
numbers and storm sewers.

Great Bend, Kan. Dec. SO.-More
snow Is falling here to make JOY Tor
the wheat growers and trouble for the
stockmen and the railroads.
The Atchison, Topeka q Santa Fes
Scott City branch has been tied up
four days by the snow. and q freight
train, stalled three days ago, still Ii
in the snowdrifts near Laird, Ness
county. A passenger train was stalled
at the same place and two snow piows
were sent to its relief from here.
The snow plOws also got stuck In
the snow drifts and 1t was necessary
to call the big rotary snow pillow from
Dodge City. The rotary ran out OF
water on the trip and four engines
we're stalled. Relief engines were
sent out and the dead engines and the
passenger train were brought in here.
The freight train Is still out there.
The wind is causing big drifts OF
snow and the trains were pulled
through a number Of drifts which were
more than four feet deep.
There are q great many carloads OF
cattle In the yards at different towns
along the branch line waiting for ship
ment and feed is getting scarce.
The only objection from the grain
growers comes from certain sections
where the winds in the fall blew q
good deal Of wheat out Of the ground
This condition existed to consider
able extent in Western Kansas and in
Barton county there is complaint
along that line from some farmers
near the Arkansas river, where the
ground IL sandy. In some places the
sandy ground has been blown up
against fences and strawstacks In
huge drifts, but as whole the wheat
was in good shape in this locality
before the snow came.

MAY EMO LABOR ORGANIZATIONS
international Officers Representing
Railroad Employees Summoned
to Appear In V. s. Court at
at DanVllle, III.

Chicago, Dec. 3O.-Qrders to appear
January /, in the United States cir
cult court OF the eastern district OF
Illinois, at Danville, were served on
M. F. Ryan, president of the Railway
Carmen of America; ]. A. Franklin
international president of the Inter.
national Brotherhood of Boiler Max.
ers Of America, and A. Hinzman, vice.
president. These men live in Kansas
City and the trade unions which they
represent are striking for more pay
on the Hartman lines.
The court summons is issued OF
the order of Judge Wright and Is ap-
proved by Edward D. White, chief
justice OF the United States.
The order is directed against the
International Association of Machin-
lists and its president, James O'Con-
nell Of Washington, and was brought
by the Illinois Central railroad. The
heads of the other striking unions
and about 200 minor officers and en-
ployes are named in the summons.
The trade unions believe 1t is
prosecution under the Sherman anti
trust law, charging the unions with
restraint of trade. The purpose OF
the suit has been kept secret by the
attorneys for the illinois Central rail-
road.
If the suit is brought against the
unions on the grounds that they are
operating in constraint OF trade II
marks a new era in the history OF
trade unions.
The sudden move of the Illinois
Central is one of the most startling
ever made in a labor dispute. II
places an almost entirely new ques-
tion before the labor organizations,
that of whether they can be sued or
prosecuted under the Sherman anti
trust law. The consequences OF the
suit will be far reaching. It VIII
practically determine whether labor
organizations can exist under the law
or not.
Illinois Central officials profess
ignorance of the whole. matter. Attor-
ney. Lee, counsel for the railroad,
said he knew nothing of the suit. In
view of the fact that this suit is one
of the most important the road has
ever filed. it is supposed the attor-
neys for the company are anxious 70
keen the charges from the strikers
and the public as long as possipis.

INDIANA DOCTOR WAS MURDERED
Coroner Has just Filed Report stating
Suicide Of Or. knabe Was
Physical lmpossibility.

Indianapolis, Dec. SO.-Happenings
in the life of Or. Helene Knabe, for
mer state bacterio.ogist have been
uncovered that might have supplied a
motive for her murder, according to
the verdict Of Coroner G. o, Durham,
Just fled The coroner concludes that
DR.. Knabe, who was found dead In
her bedroom with her throat cut Octo-
Der "a. did not commit suicide but
was killed by some person or persons
unknown.
The knife slash that almost severed
the young physicians head was de-
livered by a powerful arm while the
victim. almost nude, was lying on
her back on top OF the cover OF her
bed, the coroner finds, and declared
that it would have been impossible
for her to have struck the blow her
self.
The verdict does not reveal the
coroner's theory OF motive for the
murder.

CHINESE TROOPS
TRAINED HERE
Work Carried On for Two. Years
Without Discovery.
HIRED AMERICAN DRILL MASTERS
Undertaking Was Financed From San
Francisco Under Direct Super
vision Of Or. Sun
Vat Sen. sf

washington, Dec. 29.-The war de-
uartment has Just discovered that the
success of the revolutionist army In
China is due to remarkable prepare
ton which for two years had been
in progress in this country. The dis
coyery came about through the desire
OF many company officers In the
United states army to obtain the re-
enlistment Of several expert drill
sergeants, who, on the expiration OF
their last enlistment period. disap'
peared,
II now has been learned that they
received offers from the Chinese rev
oIutlonary party to undertake to drill
Chinese living in the United States
to form the basis Of an army that
might be employed to overthrow the
reigning dynasty. In two years there
was formed secretly within the bound
aries of the United States more than
5000 effective, well drilled men, who
needed only a few weeks experience
in the field under competent officers

to severe military service.
The organization which furnished
the funds for financing this prepare
ton Of an army had its headquarters
in San Francisco 1t was directly
under the orders Of DR.. Sun Vat Sen'
who for the greater part of the time
was In New York and Honolulu. His
chief representative in the United
States was Brig. Gen. Homer Lea OF
Los Angeles. He is author OF the
military work, "The Valor of Ignor-
ance," and commanded the second di-
vision of the Chinese imperial army
in 1904.
General Lea suggested. 1t is said,
the formation of companies of Chinese
recruits in this country and Hawaii.
The Chinese in the United states
quickly acquired the knowledge of the
use of the army rife. The brightest
we're taught to become commanders
of detachments and companies.
The imperial army continually was
defeated by small but far more
active force, evidently handled by en-
ceIlent tacticians. ~
1t is now known through letters
from former United States soldiers
that not only was q small army raised
in this country by the revolutionists,
but 50 non-commissioned soldiers
from our army went to China to drill
the revolutionists.
Our army officers marvel at the Sc
crecy OF the enterprise. They say
no race except the Chinese could have
put it through successfully, and with
out any inkling of 1t to this govern
ment. They impute to DIR. Sun Vat
Sen, former Minister WI and Gen.
Homer Lea the conception and work
Ing out of the scheme.

DAWSON-STUBBS
ROW IS REVIVED
aehearlng Of Case Is Asked by The
Attorney General.
FUSS STARTED OVER LIQUOR LAW
Claims Governor Has Robbed once
Of al Discretionary Powers and
Hampers Administration
Of Justice.

Topeka, Dec. 29.--Attorney General
John 8. Dawson has filed In the SUI
~reme court petition asking for q re-
hoaring OF the decision In the StuDDs'
Dawson controversy. The case arose
when J. Il. House. q Topeka newspa'
por writer, wrote an article about
Nanor law violations in Kansas. The
governor directed Dawson to sub
Wcena House, and compel him to tell
about It. Dawson contested the gov
@rmor's spOwer to "direct" him. The
muvernOr mandamused Dawson in the
supreme court and won the case.
In asking for rehearing Dawson
Mives theae reasons, among others:
The decision of tho court carried to
ffs logical conclusion robs the attor'
mey general Of practically every dis
cretionary power; places In the hands
Of the governor arbitrary power not
nrovided by the constitution; threat
ems the usefulness, Of the office OF at
eorney general and Is disastrous TO
the administration Of justice In this
state.
1.-THE attorney general has at this
time q thousand law suits" Mr.. Daw'
ron said. There are neither sufficient
hours in the day nor days enough In
the year to try these cases. They
must be compromised and disposed OF
a clear his dockets for hundreds OF
other cases which are continually aris-
anx. It Is necessary to appoint other
lawyers to try these cases and %
trust to their discretion IN, the dis
nosition Of them. He will be unable
g obtain reputable and capable law
gers to try them II his Judgment and
Assertion is permitted to be called
A question by the governor; nor can
the attorney general come to any
authoritative conclusion In the dis
patch Of public business with the un-
msrtainty that his judgment and dis
nretion may be overruled by the gov
nrnor. as was done in this very case
ooncerning J.. e. House.

responsible to the people nor account

Tabriz, Dec. 30.-A nine days siege
of this city by the Russian troops has
resulted in complete occupation Dy
the Russian forces and the dispersal
OF the combatants belonging to the
constitutional progressive party Tor
Fidais). The Russians alone lost
from 100 to 200 men. The losses~of
the Fidais were severe, although the
number cannot be ascertained.
An enormous amount Of damage TO
property was done. The Stars and
Stripes floating over the United States
consulate was shot down by Rus
sian shell, which, however, did no
further damage to the consulate. NO
casualties were suffered by the for
eign population, but many individuals
suffered from a lack of provisions
while they were closely confined TO
their homes during the prolonged
street fighting.
The principal engagements TOOK
place in the neighborhood Of the Rus.
sian consulate around the citadel
known as "The Ark" and at the Rus
sian camp at Baghi Shemel. the
Persians fired on the Russian camp
with small mountain artillery from
the top Of "The Ark"
The first detachment OF Russian re-
endorsements from Julia, consisting
of 800 men with four guns, arrived IN
the outskirts Of the city after making
! forced march OF 4S hours from theiT
camp, so miles from Tabrtz.
without establishing previous com
munication with the Russian camp
or consulate, the re-euforcements
shelled various quarters Of the city
unfortunately the next Day, causing
little damage but impressing the
Persians with the hopelessness OF
continuing their resistance.
The citadel was evacuated by the
Persians the following day. Then the
Persians made a futile night attack
on the camp Of the Russian re-en'
forcements, who responded with a
bombardment of the northern quarter
of the city until midnight. The whole
disturbance was a complete surprise
to everybody, including the Russians
who expected to disarm the Persian
Fidals without resistance.
