FOR 4 new Sewer.


Commissioner w. q. Tandy this
morning recommended the granting of
the West side sewer petition, which
will be built in the next year at an ap-
proximate cost of 100000. The new
sewer district will include Meirose,
Lowman Hill, the west end Of Elmhurst
and College Hill addition. Unless ac-
tion is taken at once, Washburn Place
addition. comprising the four blocks
between Munson and Huntoon, west OF
Washburn avenue, will not be included
in the district. The city attorney viii
be instructed to draw up q resolution
excluding it.
Washburn Place addition can't decide
whether it wants q sewer. The first
part Of the commission meeting this
morning settled into an alteration be-
tween J. w. Woodford and Josiah
Barnes. Petition for the paving of the
addition was killed by a protest with
ten times as many signatures. MI.
Barnes. who represents the faction un-
able to afford the sewer. accused Mr..
Woodford, who il working hotly for
the improvement, Of conducting a gum
Shoe canvass. One Of Mr.. Woodford's 3
supporters objected to the length Of Mr..
Barnes address.
Twenty men. representing both sides
Of the question, discussed the pros and
cons Mr.. Tandy explained that an
amendment could be added to his reso-
luton in case residents on two blocks
in the addition were able to secure SUI
ficient number Of signatures to their
petition. Otherwise, WAshburn Place
addition will have no sewer until one
is built in Pinehurst

Regulation Of Tsbsrcslosi'
Travel Has Been Suggested.
Interstate Transportation Un-
der Federal Rules.
MAY HAVE SPECIAL CARS
Segregnte Victims From the
Healthy Passengers
Other Items Of General Inter
est in Traffic World.

Kansas railroad men and health or
fcials are greatly interested In q
movement undertaken by the federai
health service which will have. as q
possible effect, drastic regulation OF
the transportation of victims OF tu-
berculosis from state to state. In
such an event, it will affect princt-
pally the migration Of tuberculosis
patients to the west and southwest
over the lines OF the Santa Fe and
Rock Island.
The demand for this investigation
came originally from Kansas, Cali
fornia, Arizona. New Mexico, Colo
RADIO and other western states which
have been endeavoring for years to
curtail tubercular immigration. 1t -
suggested that regulations might be
put in force to prohibit q c0nsump-
tive from going far from his home un-
hess he could give satisfactory assur-
ance that he would not become pub
lie charge.
But the main point the investiga-
fion will disclose II that 1t IL unnec-
essary for consumptives to seek the
arid region in order to be cured. The
national health officers take the po-
sition that such a migration furnishes
the patient no treatment that cannot
be procured at home.
The recommendation that the rail-
roads run special cars for consump-
tives has been made to officials of the
roads in Topeka.

WOMEN have kPLAN.
Believe They Can Induce L0pez to Sur
render II They Ask Him.

Bingham, Lee 1.-THE capture OF
Ralph Lopez in the Utah-Apex mine
seemed as remote today as when he
took to the hills on November Il. A
dozen plans to force the slayer Of six
men from the mine, where he turned
at bay on November II. either have
failed or were given up before fully
put into effect. A plan to cut him or
from water in the workings was aban-
doncd today ~ impr4cticable. It was
considered hardly probable that the
sheriff would consent to . plan for his
capture by sentimental appeal which
was suggested by Miss Alvida o. Carts
and Mrs. w. g. Cole. The women, who
live 1T the house where Lopez board
ed. sought permission 10 enter the
Andy tunnel and ask the desperado to
surrender himself 20 they might re-
cefve the $1,000 reward.
While this proposition seems pre-
postefous to the sheriff. those who
know Lopex best declare that his pro-
nounced galfantry and cynical humor
would make II the most likely thing
in the world Il he realised there Wls
small chance to eecape that he would
agree to dis IN order that Z woman
might ejoy the blood money.

ADDITION TO Mckinley LINE.


Fulton, Mo-, Dec. 1.-THE visit Of Presi-
dent worthington OF the Chicago and Al
ton Railroad to the Fulton division OF the
road has led to reports that the Mckinney
System of Illinois 10 negotiating Tor the
purchase Of that division President
worthington passed through Fulton IN his
private car and proceeded to Jefferson
City, where he conferred with members OF
the Missouri Pacific Utilities Commission.
A representative of the Mckinley System
is said to have been with him. The NC
Kinley people recently bought the Jener-
son City electric lines, which includes the
bridge across the Missouri River, and an
extension into Galloway county. ana rep
resentatives Of that company announced
that the bridge would be strengthened
to accommodate heavier traffic. A pur-
chase of the Fulton division Of the Alton
would enable the Mckinley company to
operate its cars from the business section
Of the state capital to Fulton and Mexico
direct The Columbia branch In that
event would likely be built from point
below Fulton near New Bloomfield The
proposition is entirely feasible and would
give the Mckinley System a fairly good
track from Jefferson City to Mexico. and
the line could be electrified quickly and
cheaply.
