HEMPHILL JOINS
ISSUE WITH GOULD
Guaranty Trust Company Exec.
utive Defends Mop" Reor-
ganization Plan.

Edwin Gould's criticism of the Me-
souri, Pacific reorganization plan, on
the ground that it was not sufficient-
ly favorable 70 the per cent first and
refunding mortgage bonds and the I
per cent gold loan bonds. brought
forth a spirited reply from Alexander
j. Hemphill. chairman Of the board
OF directors of the Guaranty Trust
Company, and also of the COMMITTEES
representing the "Mop" SIS.
Mr.. Hemphill declared that the re.
suits desired by the committee as set
forth in the plan would be defeated
and the present bankruptcy OF the
system be continued indefinitely by the
adoption Of Mr.. Gould's suggestion
that the holders of the 5 per cent
bonds and the Is be given in reor.

reduced except by converting bonds
into preferred stock or income bonds
or how 100000 OF Immediately new
money can be raised. except by plac.
ing for at least part thereof mort

we shall be obliged to him and shall
be very glad 10 consider it,"
Referring TO the earnings for thu
year ended June 30 last. Mr.. Hemp.
hill stated that, making full allow
ance for the hopedfor Improvement,
the Missouri Pacific Railroad cannos
be placed in sound financial posi-.
ton without a very radical reduction
in fixed charges.
In a second statement Mr.. Gould
took issue with Mr.. Hemphill's remarks,
and asserted that the earnings of tho
last fiscal year should not be taken ~
a criterion on which to form basis
for reoI ganiZation.

LONDON QUIETER
AND UNCERTAIN
Trading Restricted by Balkan
Classification in the
Rubber Securities.

London, Nov. l6.-The stock market
to-day was quiet and uncertain, the
Balkan situation restricting dealings.
The rubber boom appears 20 have
ceased and offerings Of stocks caused a
reaction. Copper shares were firm and
japanese bonds and colonial issues re-
ceived renewed support. Home rails
and the war loan were easy. Consols
were unchanged ct s.. The new war
loan closed ! lower at 96is.
American securities ruled dull and
irregular. There was more business in
gold bonds than In railway shares.
The latter finished easy, with Erie
firm exception.
The Bank Of England shipped $780,
600 in soyereigns 20 America Ameri-
can exchange was firm, with cable
transfers quoted az 1868, on the be-
lief that an Official announcement will
soon be made regarding the establish
ment on an Anglo-American banking

try, where money is drug in the

rorters are creating large balances
abroad for Americans by their heavy

not be surprising TO see some Of those
balances invested there. instead of be-

there is little profitable employment

in SPITE OF COLD
Topeka Fans Didn't Fear Cold
Wind Today.
Intense Interest i'm First of Big
Games.

Wearing overcoats and shlverlng
from the chill of a stiff October wind,
| a big crowd stood in front of the state
Journal bulletin boards this afternoon
ana watched he first game of the
worlds series. The service was never
better. Every ball pitched was re-
ported tc the crowd by Auc+loneer
Crews and The fans followed the game
with intense interest.
Because of weather conditions, to-
days crowds in front of the State
Journal building was not as large as
during several former worlds cham
pionship contests. zSut the interest
was there and every man before the
bulletin board was a thirty-thIrd de-
gree fan.
When the Phillies scored the first
run of the game in the fourth inning,
the crowd let loose a cheer and Ma
tional league stock took a boost while
Philip supporters prayed for Alexan-
der to hold. Then the Boston hackers
took heart IN the eighth when Speak
er crossed the plate with the score
that tied the game. But Boston joy
was of short duration. A few minutes
later Philadelphia loaded the bases
and scored two runs. 1t was the sort
of game that appealed to the fans.
Until the Philadelphia rally in the
eighth, it was q nip and tuck game all
the way.

IT IS A FIRE TRAP
No Protection for OsawatOmie
State Hospital.
Board of Control Appeals to
Governor Capper.
1900 LIVES ARE ENDANGERED
Buildings Are in a Most De.
plOrable Condition.
No Money for WOrk-WOuld
Use Fee Fund.
1900 LIVES ARE ENDANGERED

Members of the state board of con-
troll were IN conference today with
Governor Capper concerning improve
ment of fire protection facilities at the
Osawatomie state hospital Fire fight
ing facilities at the Osawatomie insti-
tuition are in a deplOrable condition
and unless the fee furd of the hos
pital can be made available, there is
no money for betterments
Recently an inspection of Osawat-
on1ie hospital was made concerning
protection of the institution from fire.
1t was found that the protection was
not only inadequate but such equip
ment as the institution owned was of
little or no value. Immediate action is
desired by the board of control and
an effort will be made to temporarily
improve conditions by using a portion
of the hospitals fee fund. The state
has no money available for improving
the fire protection.
More Than 800 Inmates.
More than 1900 men and women
pitaI. Many of the buildings in which
the inmates are kept were built years
ago and are in many ways Veritab ab1e
fire traps. The fire hose is in such
condition as to be of no value in car
rying a high pressure during a fire
and the institution is almost entirely
without protection, members of the
board told Governor Capper.
IF we can spend 81, 800 to $4,000
from the fee fund we can improve
conditions greatly" said w. E. Brooks,
chairman of the board. I'VE really
need $4,000, but there is no money
available
= Chief Hanlon of the Topeka fire de-
partment attended today's conference
and made a number of suggestions. 1t
is proba ble that HanIo.l may make q
trip to the OSawatomie hospital to di-
rect the betterment of conditions.
