FEDERAL JUDICIARY REFORMS
BILL PASSED BY HOUSE

WASHINGTON, June 1s-General re-
forms In the federal judiciary are pro-
posed in the Watkins bill. passed by the
house today and sent TO the senate for
action. The measure would prohibit
judges of United States courts from ex-
pressing personal opinions In charging a
jury and from taking away from a jury
the determination OF issues of fact. 1t
would abolish the fee system OF compen-
sating clerks of courts, substituting sal
aries ranging from $500 to $500 This,
it is said, would reduce the incomes OF
many district court clerks by thousands
OF dollars.

There was a decided absence OF pres
sure from hedging against the purchase
of new crop wheat Illinois and Ne
braska farmers in particular were re-
ported as not inclined to make contracts
at present prices and as holding back un-
I'll threshing time at least, on account of
current bids not averaging within IL TO IL

WANTS WICHITA CLUB
Leavenworth Said to Have Hollands
Recommendation.

Leavenworth, Kan, Jan. 1e.-rhere
Is persistent rumor current in Ieav-
enworth that negotiations are now
under way for the transfer Of the
Wichita franchise in the Western
League to this city. Several Leaven-
worth men are said to be behind the
movement to place Leavenworth on
the baseball map again by obtaining
q berth in organized baseball.
Wichita probably will lose its place
in the Western League circuit, as the
game could not be made to pay there.
Jack Holland Of st. Joseph has recon-
mended Leavenworth to take Wich-
ita's place in the circuit and 1t is
thought that If the proper steps are
taken that this city can land the place.
1t Is well situated to fill in the gap
easily, but 1t has been SO long since
LeavenWOrth had q league club that
baseball followers are rather dubious
an to whether it could be made to
pay.
Leavenworth has bsen without the
semblance of a professional club
since the days of the Shively Western
association and the Missouri Valley
league. Several attempts have been
made to enter the Western League
since the Shively organization dis
banded, but all were futile.

Mckenzie. sheriff Of Phillips county.
is hunting for an old man, s. M. Nc
Fall, by name. He is sending cards
out ali over Kansas giving McFalrs
description. The sheriff does not
overlook a single detail in McFalPs
Identification and he makes the infor-
nation more interesting by stating that
$50 reward Is offered for McFalfs 9
location--but uot a word IL stated
concerning McFall's crime-if he has
any such, thing about his person.
According to the sheriffs card, Nc
Fall was last seen Oh a Frisco train
at Neodesha, where he purchased a
ticket for Wichita. The date of this

ten years ago for all the sheriffs cor
respondents know. The card says
that McFall was 68 years Of age. He
was this age but nothing is said of
his present age. He is said to be light
complexioned. with a sandy mustache.

r. M. Newland, city commissioner Of
water and lighting. thinks It would be
much more economical for the city
were the city lighting plant. which fur
nisheS current for the white ways and
the street lamps. moved to and combin-
ed with and operated In conjunction
with the city's pumping plant.
1t cost $26. 40 to operate the light
ing plant last year. according to q re-
port filed with Mr.. Newland by Elmer
g. Stahl, superintendent Of the plant.
but this amount still leaves $3.604.A in
the fund appropriated for streets and
special lighting for the. year 1913, and
this sum will be applied ON the 1914
budget.
It is figured that it cost the city
.0398 cents per kilowatt hour to make its
lighting current. and that an the best
price which the city could get from the
Edison company would be cents per
kilowatt hour. the plant Is saving
money for the city. 1t cost 1858 per
day to run the plant. The need Of in
stallins additional machinery In the
plant Is pointed out In the report, but
this accommodation 10 based ON the
supposition that the city will continue
to operate the lighting plant separately
from the water plant. Should the two
be combined. machinery OF different
kind would probably be needed. The
value Of the present plant 10 placed at
$105, 900 by Mr.. Stahl. The cost Of oper-
ating the white ways last year is placed
at e3,6S6.92.

light nights, when the street lamps

the plant Is operated for only part of
its efficiency. 1t IL claimed q saving in
fuel would thus result and that the
Auditorium and city hall could also be
lighted by city current.
