report that the Mckinley interests are
planning to install magnificent new
power house in Atchison within the
next year. It was reported today that
work on sle project would be COM
meqced early In the spring. The i'm
provements will cost fully 100000 and
of course should the interurban deal
go through the expenditures would ex-
coed $4,000
Another report is to the effect that
the new power house will be located
somewhere on the west bank of the
Missouri river instead Of at the pres
ent power house site.
Also 1t is said that the syndicate il
considering the advisability Of an in
terurban line which would be operated
from Atchison- to Topeka and ST. Jos
eph. An investigation of the financial
soundness Of such a line is being made
now. it is understood.
The officials in the party here were:
H. E. Chubbuck, Peoria, ILL.,, vice pres
ident, executive and general manager

THE LOWEST PRICE.
Thanksgiving Turkeys Are Selling for
Csc q Pound.

The Thanksgiving turkeys are here
and selling at % cents pound, the
lowest price in a half dozen years. In
damp weather the young birds suffer
from various ailments known only to
their kind and many of them sue
cumb to their respective maladies.
And consequently while the famous
drouth of 1913 was scorching vegeta-
ton the young turkeys were growing
strong on diet of insects. This
grub" was not fattening, and the
consequence is that the Thanksgiving
birds are long and lanky-more SO
than in several years.
AS the best cuts Of beef cost more
than turkey, turkey naturally will be
in unusual demand. The local deal
ers have had foresight and have pre-
pared to handle all orders. The ma
jority of the birds in stock have been
shipped in from western Kansas, Ok
lahoma and Texas. Very few of
them have been brought in by Shaw
nee county farmers. They require q
large range, and are grown extensive
ly on the ranches of the west.
Many people prefer geese and
ducks and they are selling at the
usual price of Is and 20 cents a
pound respectively. The supply will
be equal to the demand.
There are fruits on the market in
variety, but they are inclined to be
expensive. The best California
grapes are selling at the rate of Is
cents a pound, or 70 cents for a large
basket, but il one is SO inclined he
may buy the English hot house va
riety at the rate of 81 a pound. Span
ish grapes are on the market at 20
cents q pound.
Florida oranges may be bought at
fairly reasonable prices. but grape
fruit is slightly more expensive than
a year ago. Tangerines sell for 80
cents a dozen and kumQuats at 35
cents.
French endive for salads brings so
cents a pound. There are vegetables
in variety but they are either grown
in local hot houses or are imported;
consequently the prices are not such
as appeal to the Door man.

CALLS IT FAIR DEAL.
Frisco Receiver Makes Statement Re
garding the Brownsville Road.

st. Louis, Nov. 22.-Thomas HI.
West, receiver Of the st. Louis &
San Francisco railway and chairman
of the board Of directors OF the st.
Louis Union Trust company, the bank
ing firm through which the Frisco
operated, today published a display
advertisement in St. Louis papers de-
nying that the Frisco paid an excess
sive price for the st. Louis, Browns
willie & Mexico. Receiver West said
the Brownsville road was sold to the
Frisco for $11,827,2OO, and was built
by a syndicate for $9,7O8,758.26. In
terest at six per cent on the $685.
900 cash subscribed by the syndicate
is placed at 1881, 900. making the
net cost of the road, with interest.
$11, 1886. This leaves profit of
$737, 441.74. according to Mr.. West. to
which he adds the balance left from
land and cash bonuses after deduct
ing enough to furnish right of way,
terminals, etc.
This balance brings the profit to
$1,629, 92S.95. The advertisement says
that the cost of the Brownsville to
the Frisco was only $737.441.74 over
and above the actual cost of the prop
erty with right of way, depot
grounds and terminals free.

INTERURBAN RuM0RS
Atchison Hears of Mckinley Line To-
peka, Atch1son and St. Joseph.

Following the visit of H. E. Club
buck, vice president and general man.
ager Of the Mckinley lines, to Atchison,
the story is told there that an inter-
urban between st. Joseph, Atchison and
Topeka is a plan of the Illinois Trac-
ton company. It is said also. that the
company is preparing to build a big
power plant in Atchison to supply the
current for the line.
The story could not be confirmed in
Topeka today. Albert M. Patten, as
sistant general manager of the Illinois
Traction company, headquarters in To-
peka, was not in his office today and
could not be reached.
The rumor in part as printed in the
Atchison Champion, follows:

CASE. FROM KANSAS.
Presents q New Problem to the United
States Supreme Court.

Washington, Nov. 22.@The powers
Of a judge to change his mind and
increase the sentence Of a prisoner
after he has been sent to prison will
be one of the problems the supreme
court must solve shortly.
A judge in Trego county, Kansas,
sentenced Henry Meyer to Jail for
three months and to pay fine Of
800 for contempt in violating a
liquor Injunction. Twelve hours later
in the day the judge recalled Meyer
from jail and made his sentence six
months.
The legal minds Of Kansas have
been figuring ever since what hap
pened to Meyer. The supreme court
of Kansas held that the trial Judge
was powerless to set aside the first
sentence and that this must be served
out. Meyer claims that the Judge set
aside the first sentence but was with
out power to impose q second sentence
so that he is a free man.
