STATE. BANK CALL.
Commissioner Benson Asks for Finan-
cial Reports in Kansas.

Call has been issued by Commits
sioner Benson for a report as to the
financial condition of all state banks
December IL. The statements will be
published by the various banks this
week and a tabulated report showing
their condition. will be issued from the
bank commissioner office sometime
in January.
The call this week is the Inal re-
quest for a statement from the state
banks this year. Three times during
the year the state banks have been
asked for a statement on the same
date as a report was filed by the ma
tional banks. These combined reports
have enabled the state and national
banking departments to Keep in close
touch with the financial situation In
Kansas.
With money realized from the sale
of at least a fair portion=O of the 1915
crops, it is believed that the Decem-
Der report will show more money In
state banks than at any time IN two or
three years. In fact it is possible that
a new record may he established The
last report issued by Kansas banks
showed an increase of IS million dol
lars in deposits in the ten weeks IN
tervening from June 80 to Sept. Il.
Should the same ratio of Increase be
made from September IL to December
liz. q new record in bank deposits In
Kansas will be established.

Killed Under Wheels Of Freight
Train in North Topeka.
Name and Residences UnknoNn
No Name ON Clothing.

Failing in an attempt to sei1s the
rods on: an east bound Union Pacific
freight train. an unknown man, APP
parently a hobo and about 80 years
old. fell eneath the wheels OF the
train and was instantly killed in North
Topeka near the Santa Fe-Union Pa
cific crossing at 5:45 o'clock Tuesday
evening
The body Of the dead man was
found. horribly mangled. about fifteen
minutes after the accident by Charles
Gerteisen, North side agent for the
Union Pacific. Mr.. Gerteisen notihed
the coroner. J. H. Rinehart, and the
corpse of the unfortunate man was
taken to the Bomgardner undertaking
establishment. 8ss5r
A veil Of mystery surrounds the
death Of the man. Who he is and
where he came from to Topeka is a
mystery. 80
The most that is known OF the man
here was told by John Roberts, who
with he dead man attempted to catch
the freight train for Kansas City.
Roberts attempt to catch the train
was successful. He il now at the po-
lice station in Lawrence. According
TO c. NJ. Fisher. chief Of police at
Lawrence, Roberts says that he met
the dead man in North Topeka Tues
day evening. The man told Roberts
that he was from Enid, Okla, and
was on hi way to Kansas City and
from there he would go to Chicago.
Roberts in telling his story to the
Lawrence police chief said that when
he boarded the train he saw the man
make a run for the train and after
that he did not see him. II did not
think he was a railroad man or a very
experienced hobo" said Roberts. HE
did not seem to know much about
boarding a ain"
No Identification marks we're found
on the mans clothing. He was dressed
in three suits Of coarse underwear
and his clothing was threadbare. The
hat he was wearing was marked
''Dalhart, Texas" In a Rock Island
folder which he was carrying a blue
pencil mark was drawn around the
station Dalhart. A cake of soap. a
clothes brush and a comb were the
only articles found in the mans cloth
ing.
Union Pacific special agents are
making an endeavor to find the name
and home of the dead man.

Chicago Dee 1k-WHEAT - Wheat
prices today showedTan unusual degree OF
steadiness. A hardening tendency mani
tested at first was in sympathy with high
er cables but the effect soon wore on as
tn main influence across the Atlantic was
the bullish government crop report from
Washington. Favorable reports on field
conditions in the domestic belt gave some
advantage later to the bears. After open
ing &c OF to Nc UP, the market declined
moderately all around, and then held at
the same as last night to Nc below.
Subsequently, big export clearanceS and
diminishing receipts acted as an offset for
heaviness that resulted from some specu-
lative selling based On the idea that the
German naval raid might lessen wheat
shipment to Great Britain. The close was
steady at &c to sc net decline.
CORN-Cold weather demand from feed
ers put q little firmness into corn. Be-
sides rural offerings awere light. The open
ing. which varied from 5As decline to Nc
advance was followed by prices all around
slightly, above yesterdays close.
Afterward the market was inclined to
ease on with wheat The close was
steady but NC to no under last night.
OAT$Oats averaged slightly firuef
corn. Trade was chiefly between pit spec
ulators. - y Z
PROVISIONS-Higher quotations for
hogs carried provisions up grade at the
outset Afterward the market sagged
owing to lack of demand.

sions Of the legislature, Senator Price
has fought new thought legislation
usually against rather strong Opposi-
ton. He has perhaps accumulated
fewer enemies because of his fights,
made more friends and maintained
the most consistent record of any
other member of the legislature.
At he National hotel today, Sena-
tor Price told briefly what he thought
of sc me Of the new reforms.
No Constitutional Convention.
"A constitutional convention? 90 ask
ed Senator Price in answer to a query
as to what he thought Of Governor
Hodges idea. "Why, we don't need
it. That's all. There isn't solitary
bit Of reason or excuse for constitu-
tional convention and I am against
it,"
What about the one house legis-
lature?" was asked.
That's another fad" said the Clark
and won't do anything with it. The
one house legislature belongs right
along in the class with the initiative
and referendum and the recall. Why
there is that recall that the people
adopted last MONTH $3.50
glasses. Then he twirled them. on a
chain. He was back on the floor of
the senate discussing reforms once
more.
''Why that recall is silly" said Sem
ator Price. whats more, it is posi-
lively useless. 1t isn't one-half as
strong or One-half as effective as the
Brewster custer act which was passed
in 1911. Mark my prediction. When
ever the people Of Kansas want to get
after an unfaithful official, they won't
use the recall that was palmed off on
them in the last election. They will
use the Brewster custer law"
What Of the initiative and refer
endum and the minimum wage law?"
was asked.
Senator Price smiled.
You know where l stand on them.
You saw the fight two years ago on the
minimum wage. You saw the fights on
the initiative and referendum. 1 have
MT changed
Then the senator was asked as to
the bills he would introduce in the
coming session.
Il don't think will have any special
bills" was the answer. Everyone who
comes to town seems to bring a lot of
bills and it isn't necessary for me to
work SO hard. 1t seems to me that
Kansas through her legislative bodies
has made herself ridiculous in the eyes
of the nation about long enough. This
ought to be q good season to smash a
few fadS and write some sane laws, if
we really need more laws
