co TO COURT NOW
That Is Only Means Left To-
peka Council Supporters.
Petitions With insufficient Sig
natures Filed Officially.

At a special meeting of the city
commission today, c. b Burge filed a
report on the second edition. of petit
lions filed asking for the calling of a
special election to vote on whether or
not to return to the council plan of
city government. These are the famous
petitions on which numerous fOrgeries
and the names of dead persons were
found. The petitions were filed Feb
ruary %.
The city clerk in his report stated
he did not go to the trouble of check
ing up just how many names on these
petitions were genuine Instead of try
ing to Gull out the signatures of regis
tered voters, he merely counted the
entire number of names on the petit
ton and found them to be insufficient
there being only 1,679, whereas 4,245,
or 25 per cent of the registered voters
is neceSsa ry.
Unless those in favor of holding a
special election now go to court, as
they have said they intend to do, the
movement to return to the council
system is dead. A special meeting of
the Anti-Commission Government
league, will be held at the ThrOOp no.
tel tonight at o'clock at which a de-
cision will be reached as to what ac-
ton, if any, is to be taken.

MUST HAVE MORE
Public Demand for Increased
Service Should Be Met
BY Heavier Revenue, Plea of
Roads in Rate Hearing.
A. E. HELM OF Topeka THERE
Counsel for Kansas Utilities
Represents Shippers.
President OF Chicago Great
Western on Stand TODAY.
A. E. HELM OF Topeka THERE

Chicago, March 5.-That the rail-
roads operating throughout the west
must be permitted to earn more it
they are to keep pace with the public
demand for increased service was the
substance of testimony given before
w. NJ. Daniels, interstate commerce
commissioner, today in the hearing of
the application of Al western railroads
for increased freight rates. S. M. Eel
ton, president of the Chicago Great
Western, resumed his testimony under
cross examination by Clifford Thornc,
representing the shippers who oppose
the increases. The examination was
on a comparison of statistics for vari-
iOuS years as to the cost per mile of
hauling freight. and the revenue of
the road on a mileage basis. Mr.. Fell
ton held that the mileage income of
his road was decreasing. He denied
that his road was so prosperous that il
did not need increased rates. He
methods had reduced expenses in one
division, increased efficiency demand
ed by the public had placed heavier
responsibility on the road.
do you think the western rail-
roads ought to be guaranteed a sixtper
cent profit on their equalization ?''
asked Mr.. Thorne.
The railroads certainly should be
assured reasonable profit" replied
Mr.. FELTON,. fHow about investments
in other lines of business-ought they
to be assured a definite profit?'
THE difference. is that other lines
of business are not restricted on the
price of what they have to sell, the
railroads are said Mr.. FELTON,.
Under present conditions one road
is not earning profit of half of what
it would take to build the road
A. E. Helm, representing shippers
in Kansas, asked Mr.. FELTON, whether
the Chicago-Great Western was typi
cal of the forty other roads which ask
for increases.
DO you think all the roads should
be given increases just because one
of them needs more revenue?" was
his query. 50
cone road is TYPICAL responded
FELTON,. 1.-THE reason we are combin
ing our efforts is that all of us are in
the same need
So far as his road was concerned
the witness added even if the proposed
rates We're enforced the revenue still
would not be enough as his road
would enjoy an increase of S325,000
only. q 80
Luther Walter. attorney for GER
tain packers, asked Mr.. FELTON, if the
railroad presidents ever met to agree
on how. much advance should be re-
Quested- Asked by Commissioner
Daniels the purpose of the question
Mr.. Walter said:
My information is that the railroad
presidents disagree on how much they
would ask for. that some wanted 8
per cent and some per cent and
some 90 per cent, and that finally
they agreed TO ask for the maximum
amount and passed the buck to the
commissioners.

For AL Pain

The efficiency of any drug says DR.: G. P.
Robbins, is known to US by the results We
obtain from its use, If We are able to con-
troll pain and disease by means of any pre-

use. One of the principal symptoms of all
diseases is pain, and this is what the patient
most often applies to US for, 1. e. something
to relieve his pain. Ii we can arrest this
promptly. the patient is most liable to trust
in Us for the other rem edies which will effect
a permanent cure. One remedy which 1
have used largely in my practice is Anti
kamnie Tablets. Many and varied are heir

occasions, and have never been dfsappoint-

headaches of malariel origin, where quinine

pecially for WON subjectoo pains at certain

SHOWS ITS TEETH
TOpeka's Shear Street Car" Or

Poor Jitney Driver Arrested and
Fined for Dangerous Driving.

Topeka'S famous auto ordinance,
which prohibits drivers of motor We
hicles driving their machines in
eight feet of a street car while the car
is standing for the purpose of taking
on or unloading passengers, showed
it's teeth for the first time since it was
passed, Thursday evening, when H. T.
Ham, a jitney driver, was fined S 5 and
costs in police court for violating the
ordinance.
Evidence introduced in the police
court hearing was to the effect that
Ham drove his car within two feet of
a car which was loading and unload
ing passengers at Seventeenth and
Lane streets.
He was arrested by H. o. Cook, po-
lice officer, February 90 The costs
in the case amounted to $3.50.

WILLARD GIVES UP
He Says Johnson Will Never
Come to JuareZ.
Training Camp VIII Probably
Be Broken Up Tomorrow.

Ell Paso, Tex, March 5.-Jess Will
lard has about given up all hope of
boxing Jack johnson across the inter-
national line, now or in the near fu-
ture. He announced this morning that
unless something of a decidedly defin-
lite nature was received by the syndi-
cate here from Jack Curley, who is in
Havana struggling with Johnson, he
would leave for California early Sat
urday morning to visit his wife and
family
1T is beginning to get on my nerves
and 1 am sick of it, Jess said. i've
trained into the finest possible condi-
ton and now there is nothing in sight.
I believe the syndicate did everything
in its power to bring about the fight
and | further believe that had it come
off on scheduled time ] would certainly
have won it.
But Johnson isn't coming. OF that,
L am sure. And even if he did agree
to come he would want a month or
so in which to train and l could not
keep in my present condition for that
length of time. So I'm ready to give
it up. [ am not entirely sure that
johnson is afraid of what might ha p
pen to him from the Mexican author
tiles. | am pretty well convinced that
he is a bit afraid of Willard and is
am. 1t looks that way when it has
been shown that he cannot get within
20 per cent of what he could here for
boxing in Havana
The Willard camp was reduced by
one last night when Jim Savage, the
pig New Yorker, was paid off and told
he might return east. Walter Mono
ban viii go to California with Will
lard should he go back to his family,
and so viii Jack Hemple, as that is
their home Tex O'Rourke may stay
in this vicinity. 1t certainly looks as
if the camp would be throughly brok-
en- up and scattered before the end of
the week.
Jack Curley sent another of his
nothing definite cables Friday, the
gist of which was that Johnson con-
t1nued friendly, but could not be
nailed to any proposition looking to a
Mexican trip. After that everybody
was about ready to give up.
