MONEY IS POURING IN.
Financial Stringency in New York Re-
Iieved by Country Banks.

New York. Jan. S.-Money is pour
ing into New York in such enormous
volume that the clerks in the large
hanks are working overtime to handle
the golden deluge. At the treasury Of
fees the strain upon employees is es-
neciaIIy heavy, and men are at their
desks until late into the night, sort
ing out the United States notes and
gold and silver certificates handed in
for redemption. Currency is coming
in from all directions. especially from
the middle west and south.
An influx of money is usual at this
season when large sums sent to the
interior in the fall for crop moving
are released and millions disbursed on
January l. in the heavy first of the
wear interest and dividend payments
returned to the usual channels.
The tension in the money market of
the latter part of last year has disap-
reared and call loans were made at
under 8 per cent
Present conditions in the money
market and the recent sharp rise in
foreign exchange rates were reflected
in the arrangement of the first ex
portation of gold in many months, ST.
100000 in gold bars having been en-
gagged for shipment to Europe on Sat
urday. The bankers who made this
announcement said that several mil
lion dollars more would be engaged
during the next few days.

CHASES LETTER WRITER
Aged Man Marrics Woman Who Wrote
for Her Friend.

Wichita, Kan, Jan. Sin doing the
writing for a friend who had matri-
mony in view, Mrs. E. X. Fortney of
the Bickerdike Home for Widows at
Ellsworth, met Samuel liner,
wealthy farmer of Greenwich at the
home on Christmas eve, fell in love
with him and they were married in
this city. The woman for whom Mrs
Fortney had been writing to Mr. timer
was much disappointed by the turn of
affairs.
Mr. timer opened correspondence
with Mrs. Lyons at the Bickerdike
Christmas eve he went to the home to
visit her, his visit ending in his falling
in love with Mrs Fortney and their
wedding at the Wichita court house
Monday.
Mr. liner is g years old and is one
of Sedgwick county's we'll to do farm
ers. He has retired from farming and

spend the summer in travelling
Mrs. Fortney is 65 years old and is
a capable housekeeper. 1t is a rule
at the Bickerdike that no widow mar
rying after she has been at the home
can again return. This is the third
husband for Mrs. Fortney, her other
two husbands both being dead She
has been a widow for six years. Mr.

''JUICE" IN THE DUST.
Farmers Badly Shocked Shutting Off
WindmiIIs.

Emporia, Kan, Jan. s.-A peculiar
phenomenon reported at the Kansas
State Normal by a student, William r.
Thompson. of Ness county, has created
an unusual interest in scientific circles
Mr.. Thompson relates that while he
was home for the Christmas HOLIDAYS
Ness county was visited with a severe
dust storm. During the storm the steel
windmills became heavily charged with
electricity and many farmers were Sc
vere1y shocked and some We're badly
burned from contact with the electric
ally charged steel mills.
Prof d. A. Ellsworth, of the depart
ment of geography and meteoroIogy at
the Normal school, explains the phe-
nomenon on the theory that the small
particles of dust were charged with
electricity, and in coming in contact
with the metal mills charged them. Mr.
Ellsworth says this incident supports
the theory that dust storms are caused
by electricity

MAY DAM SMOKY
Colorado Man Files Papers
Showing Plans With Clerk.
Water Enough to Irrigate 5O,-
600 Acres Could Be Stored.

Wakeeney, Kan, Jan. S.-Papers
blue prints, etc, necessary for securing
an irrigation water right with privilege
of building a dam have been filed by
Mr.. Sam Stone, of Denver, Colo, with
the county clerk here. The prints show
that the prospect is known as the Cedar
Bluff Reservoir located on the Smoky
Hill river near the old Irwin sheep
ranch.
Mr.. Stone has spent several months
along the Smoky and has discovered
what he considers a natural reservoir
for storing water for irrigation pur-
poses.
His plan is by constructing a dam
across the river at the east end of the
bluffs to a height of 30 feet, reservoir
of about 1000 acres, with an avera ge
depth of 20 feet and a capacity of S12,-
100000 cubic foot of water would be
created.
The flow of the river has been tested
including the underflow and a sufff-
cient quantity exists to irrigate $4,000
acres of land
The filing of the right in Trego
county gives Mr.. Stone the exclusive
control of this stream to the Colorado
line for irrigation purposes and the adj
vantage OF an immense watershed so
by 100 miles from which to receive
water for storage in the new reservoir.
The plan has been examined by H B.
Walker, Kansas state engineer at Man
haitian, and by several Colorado irri-
cation experts and pronounced feasible.

HE HAS DISAPPEARED.
Lon Townsend's Farm Hand Wanders
OF in Snow.

Mystery surrounds the disappearance
of Elmer Stedal, farm hand employed
by Lon Townsend, whose farm is north
west of Topeka. Stedal went to bed
last night between eight and nine
o'clock, and when it was time to rout
him out this morning, he was gone
His disappearance would have caused
less excitement were it not for the fact
that members of the household have
discovered that he took with him no
clothing except the Undertaking he
wore as a substitute for pajamas His
outer clothing was left where he dis
carded it.
After the house and barns had been
searched, Townsend turned out every
available man on the farm, and called
in neighbors, to hunt for the missing
man. 1t is, evident that he left the
house before the last fall of snow as
all efforts to find tracks leading away
from the farm We're fruieless Town
send is greatly worried over the af-
fair, and was keeping up the search
this afternoon
Stedal had been working for Town
send about four months. He had shown
no symptoms of insanity, and no one
on the farm can offer any solution to
the mystery.

BRISTOW'S BILL.
CONTINUED from Page one3

6Continued from Page One.)
ders of the commission, or to follow
the rules laid down by it, authority is
given the commission to appoint re-
ceiver for the concern and take pos
session of its property and wind up
the business. This. will probably be
regarded as the most radical feature
of the bill, but I am, prepared to de-
fend its wisdom. In case receiver
is appointed for corporation or joint
stock association, it becomes his duty
to call meeting of the stockholders
of the corporation, and they are requir-
ed to determine whether or not they
will elect officers for the corporation
who will conduct it's business in har-
mony with the law and the rules pre-
scribed by the commission; and in the
event that the stockholders refuse to
elect such officers, then the receiver is
directed to wind up the business of the
corporation and distribute the pro-
ceeds among the stockholders pro rata,
according to their several interests
This bill, in short, creates an in
dustflai commission, giving it the pow
er over industrial concerns that the
interstate commerce commission has
over transportation companies and
which the comptroller of the currency
has over national banks. It has COM
bined the power and authority of these
two governmental agencies into one
commission and given it supervision
over industrial establishments that en-
gage in interstate trade
The appointment of a receiver is not
to interfere with any criminal prosecu-
tons that may be determined upon
Suits brought by the department of
Justice or by the commission proceed as
usual, but While these suits are pend
ing and dragging their weary way for
years through the courts the viola tfons
of the law will not be permitted to
go on as they do now. They will be
imm ediately stopped The commission
is authorized, if the interest of the
public requires, to take possession of
the property and operate it, and in the
meantime the stockholders are given
an opportunity to elect officers who will
conduct the business in a legal way,
and then the property is turned oyer to
these new officers, while the criminal
prosecution against the violators of the
law is in no way interfered with. The
purpose is to protect the people with
some degree of promptness from the
extortionate practices of powerful cor
porations without destroying the BUSH

AS DRY AS TOPEKA.
Wichita Is. According to Attorney
General Dawson.

Wichita is just as dry as Topeka
possibly not SO damp-in the opinion
of Attorney General Jonn S. Dawson
who has returned from a trip to the
Peerless Princess. Dawson didn't go
to Wichita for the express purpose of
investigating the liquor conditions, but
he made some inquiries while there,
Il don't think the lid is tilted very
much in Wichita said Dawson. I'm
fact liquor is probably as hard to get
in Wichita as in Topeka-possibly
harder
Dawson really started for yelling
ton. But at Wichita he encountered
the snow storm. Train were delayed

HUTCHINSON IN IT
After LaureIS of Larned and
Winsted, Stories Indicate.
Painters and Wild Cats Figure
Largely i'm Reports.

Hutchinson, Kan, Jan. S.-Scarc1ty
of food is driving wild beasts from the
remote regions of eastern COLORADO
into the shortgrass farming settle
ments in western Kansas
Three stories have reached Hutch
inson, from relia BILE sources, of panth-
erS or wildcats attacking stock ana
even human beings in three different
western Kansas counties within the
last week.
The extreme cold last winter killed
off all the rabbits and smaller wild
game of the prairies of western Kansas
and Colorado. The result has been
that the wildcats, panthers and other
larger wild game which even yet in
fest the foothills and canyons of the
sparsely settled portions of the short
grass country, have been driven into
the settlements for food
Farmers report many losses OF
sheep, calves and other stock, due to
the ravages by these beasts.
Panther Attacks Boy.
Jacob Schlegal, son of Carl Schlegal
of near Hargrave, Rush county,Was at
tackled and badly injured by beast
supposed to be panther. The boy
and his sister had gone out after the
cows. They were only a short distance
from their home when the beast
Sprang from a clump of weeds onto
the little boy.
The dogs saved the child's life and
finally drove off the beast, but not
until the boys face was fearfully lac
Grated, and one of his ears chewed Off,
The beast was tracked into the wild
underbrush along Sand creek, but
escaped.
A somewhat similar case is report
ed from northwestern Ness county.
Frederick Lonhoffer was walking
along the country road in the even
ing on his way to a neighbor's, ac-
companied by his dog. As they were
passing a slough some beast jumped
onto the dog and bit his throat,
killing him and dragging him into the
underbrush. Lonhoffer described the
animal as a wildcat or panther
Beast Scares Neighborhood.
Arthur Freeland, who lives on an
island in the Arkansas river near
Iarned, in Pawnee county, reports
that a large wild beast, which he de-
scrfbed as either a panther or large
timber wolf, is frightening the resi-
dents of that section.
II was awakened by the screams OF
the beast which sounded for all tne
world like a woman screaming" said
Mr.. Freeland in reporting the affair.
IT arose and went out and the ami
mails screaming continued close at
hand. 1 am positive that it was eth
err panther or wildcat, although it
looked like a large wolf. No wolf
ever screamed like that though"
People in the vicinity of Larned
fear to go on the islands, although
several "squatters' have lately locat-
ed on them. A panther hunt will be
held this week to endeavor to round
up the beast.

ness which they represent. Be-
cause of the relation of some
of these concerns to our industrial
life, the continuance of their bust
ness might be a public necessity. SO
the bill undertakes to cure the evil
without destroying the business.
Neither will it interfere with big
business operations if such operations
are along honest and creditable lines.
1t will not stop the growth of any big
concern, provided that concern grows
by honest methods. If it can produce
commodity in the fair and open field
of competition at a less cost than its
rivals, then it has the widest oppor-
tunity for success. The bill imposes
no handicap upon energy, intelligence.
or genius, but it does impose drastic
restraints upon the use of intrigue and
dishonesty to destroy business COM
petitors.
1.-THE ineffectiveness of the courts or
the department of justice to supervise
big business has been clearly demon
strated in the Standard Oil and Tobacco
cases. I do not believe that it is the
province of the courts to supervise
business. Their function is to decide
what the law is, not to administer it
in a legislative or executive capacity.
1t is not the province of the court or
of the attorney general, but of con-
gress, to fix the rules and prescribe
the methods which such concerns shall
follow in the management of their bust
ness when it affects interstate COM
merce.
Il believe that the appointment of a
receiver for a corporation that persist
emily violates the law will be far more
effective in stopping the abuse that is
growing cut offthe Hfonopolizaf1on OF
our market place by giant Industries
than have been the indictments under
the Sherman antitrust law. This bill.
however, does not in any way weaken
the power of the Sherman antitrust
law. That law stands intact with all
the potency that the courts have per-
nitted it to retain. Every power which
that law now has is preserved. We
are simply providing additional means
for more effectively controlling. trusts,
combinations, and monopolies.
aside from the powers which are
conferred upon the commission, there
are two distinct features of the bill
that have not heretofore been pro-
posed in legislation of this kind. 1 re-
fer to the provision enabling congress
to remove members of commission
bv resolution and the authority for the
commission to appoint receiver to
take possession of an Industrial 1nstl-
tuition if those in control have refused
to obey the law and to run it or wind
up it's affairs as the best interests OF
the property owners and the public re-
quire.
II commend this bill to the careful
consideration of every senator ana
hope that the committee on inter-
state commerce, to which it has been
referred, will give it prompt CONSIDER
alton. The American people will not
much longer submit to a few men
monopoIizing the business of the coun-
try. Some remedy must be provided
speedily, and am convinced that this
bill offers an effective and safe way
of curing these growing evils without
endangering our Industrial stability or

employers blooded calves recently in
a unique manner. Cockrum instructed
