new move FOR 7. R.
1t Is Planned to Put Roosevelt Men
on National Committee.

Washington, May 29.-Rumors that
attempts will be made to seat new
national committeeman so that they
can serve or Republican national
committee when it begins the hearing
of contest cases in Chicago June 6,
have stirred political leaders here
more than aGy recent move in
the presidential campaign. In several
states where the Roosevelt victory
was pronounced Chicago delegates
were instructed to elect new national
committeeman and it is said some of
these delegations plan to meet soon,
elect the new committeeman and de-
mand that they be given seats ir11med-
lately on the National committee to
take part in the hearing Of the con-
tests.
If such a movement is started, it
will be directed against such members
of the committee as Senator Penrose,
Penn, Senator Crane, Mass, Frank O.
Lowden, Illinois, D. w. Mulvane of
Kansas, Arthur I. Vorys, Ohio and e.
c. Duncan North Carolina, all of
whom are friendly to President Taft's
candidacy.
The rules Of the national committee
and the procedure of former conven-
lions are opposed to such action. It
is claimed by Taft managers and by
many Republican leaders here that the
delegates to the Chicago convention
from any state have no legal standing
and no authority to e1ece a national
committeeman uti1 their credentials
have been passed on by the existing
national committee and later by the
credentials committee of the conven-

CUPD'S WORK is IN VAIN

Another kid wedding was heartlessly
aidetracked today when Judge Schoch
told a dreamy eyed 14-year-o1d Topeka
girl to call four years later. Judge
Schoch refused to be party to the
child matrimonial contract and con-
WINGED the girls mother that he was
right in his conclusions.
For nearly a week the matrimonial
proposition has been hanging in the
balance. One day recently a rather
modest young man walked into the pro-
bate court and asked for a license
He was accompanied by the brides
brother. They carried consent to
marry from the prospective brides
mother and everything moveo along
beautifully until it came time for the
near bridegroom to swear to the girls
age. Then he baked.
II wouldn't just swear that she's 10
years old" the young man told the
license clerk, after first being positive
that the girl was only two years from
her majority.
The brother was appealed to. He
thought his sister was 16, but didn
want to take oath to that effect.
Judge Schoch was taken into tbs
conference. He suggested more evil
dence.
What is still BETTER said the court.
sis to bring the girl and her mother
right here so we can talk it over
her mother did not come. They did
not come the next day, or the next, or
the next.
This morning they visited the pro-
bate court. 1t was a heart to heart
conference that Judge Schoch held with
the mother and the 14-year-old bride
to-be.
What do you want your daughter
to marry for?" Judge Schoch inquired
of the mother.
We'll, judge" she said, st am not
right sure that do want her to marry.
1 thought 1 would talk it over with
you. / didn't know but maybe ought
to take that permit back. You see
well-you see the girl won't be Is UNI
til this fall"
And why do you want to marry?
the court asked of the rather demure
little girl who looked longingly out of
the window why do you want to
get married at this age?"
The girl hesitated. A pair of big
brown eyes began to droop and the
prospective brides face flushed.
Just because she faltered, without
taking her eyes from the man who was
operating the lawn mower outside, just
because do that's all"
And that was all there was to it.
That's all there ever is.
Ten minutes later when the mother
and daughter left the building they |
carried some sound advise from the |
judge. And another kid wedding was
placed on the shelf to await further |
ripening.

GENTRY IS IN PEN.
One Incubator Baby Kidnaper Begins
Serving Sentence.

Holton, Kan, May 29.-Joseph NJ.
Gentry, one of the men convicted of
kidnapping Marian Bleakley, the I'm
cubator baby" was taken from here
late Tuesday afternoon to the Kan
sas penitentiary at Lansing, where he
is now serving out a sentence of from
one to five years for his offense.
Strange to say. he is not in prison
for kidnapping the baby, but for an
assault upon Clarence Belknap, COM
mitted at the time of the offense.
The offense was committed three
years ago, when the baby was taken
from its mother at 1920 Garfield ave-
nue., Topeka, under instructions from
Mrs. Stella Barclay, the adopted
mother of the child. Frank H. Tillot-
son, another detective employed by
Mrs. Barclay, was convicted at the
same time Gentry was convicted. His
case. was appealed to the supreme
court and his conviction was upheld.
He has now appealed his case to the
federal supreme court
Gentry asked to be allowed to make
the trip to Lansing alone and give
himself up to the prison authorities.
The objection Of the county attorney
of Shawnee county was sustained and
the sheriff took the prisoner to the
penitentiary.
The men were tried and convicted
by former County Attorney Schenck.

Bonds were heavy.
Canadian Pacific was the feature of the
open stock market with sales 1000 shares
at 1851 to 267A compared with yesterdays
close price of the 1884. Great Northern
Ore certificates advanced over a point
with some show of strength in the mar
ket leaders.
The market developed a reacionary
tone before the end of the first hour with
weakness in such minor railway stocks
as Chicago and Alton and Kansas City
Southern issues. Rock Island common
and preferred also declined with weakness
in the collateral bonds.
Beyond some further recoveries in Union
Pacific and other leaders, the market was
practically unchanged from noon except
that the dullness became more pro-
nounced.
A pause in the selling occurred at mid
day and there was an average recovery OF
IL a point.

supporters seemed to take their cue from
