KILL LOGAN BILL.
Measure to Deduct $3OO,OOO.OO0 of
Mortgages From Tax Rolls.

The Logan bill providing for the de-

arately listed and taxed in Kansas, has
been killed on final passage without
formality in the senate. This proposal
taken in connection with the new reg

EKMAN DIVORCE SUIT.
Abuse Charged by Wife of Mail Print

Alleging that her husband when

suit for separate maintenance from
the defendant and custody of their 5
year old child was today filed in the
Shawnee county district court, by Mel
lie E. Ekman against Ernest Ekman.
The petition states that Ekman is
employed at the Mail printing house
as a pressman. They were married
May 20, 1907 at Kansas City.
The plaintiff also alleges in her pc

has had to leave the defendant on ac-
count of his abuse and that on March
he struck her and otherwise injured
her.
Mrs. Ekman says that Ekman is not

House Committee Fears Judi
ciaI Apportionment Measure.
Little Hope That 1t Will Be
Recommended FayOrably.
COMMISSION TO STUDY II
That Is Plan by Which Friends
Hope to Waylay 1t.
Good News for Kansas District
Judges and Lawyers.

Words of hope and good cheer went
to the Kansas judges and lawyers to-
day when it was learned that the
house judicial apportionment commit
tee would probably vote to kill the bill
which passed the senate Saturday and
was checked up to the house for final
consideration. While final action on
the part of the committee Monday
night was deferred until later in the
week, there is apparently but little
hope that the bill will be recommend
ed for passage-and less hope that it
will pass if dumped on the floor.
Just at this time friends of the adj
ninistration are hunting a 1oophole.
They have found constitutional de-
fects in the bill which originated in
the senate. They have declared that
the bill is badly drawn. They assert
that more time is needed to consider
the question and may ask the house
committee to recommend the appoint
ment of a commission to study the
matter for two years and make a re-
port at the next sitting of the legisla-
ture in 1917.
Only by the efforts of close friends
of the administration was the judicial
apportionment bill saved at the Mon
day night meeting of the committee.
majority of the members of the
committee favored killing the bill
without the Formally of a decent
funeral. The bill did not meet with
their approval and they did not heS1-
tate to say so. This sentiment was
sweet music to the ears of the district
judges and Kansas lawyers who had
come to Topeka to fight the bill and
they saw the Immediate slaughter of
the bill. But final action was deferred
until Friday night.
1.-The bill will undoubtedly be killed
in the committee" said one member
of the house judicial apportionment
committee today. There are but two
or three members of the committee
who are at all friendly to the bill and
they do not think enough of 1t to fight
for a favorable report. The senate is
simply getting even with the house
for checking the matter up to them
two years ago."
In 1913 the house passed a judicial
apportionment bill and checked the
matter up to the senate. The senate
killed the bill. Now, it is claimed, the
senate is reaping sweet revenge. A
judicial apportionment was recon-
mended by Governor Capper in his
message to the legislature. IF the
Republican house defeats the bill, the
Republicans must carry the burden.
And today there is every indication
that the bill will be killed by the
house committee. To dump the bill
on the floor means a hard fight, as it
is known that a number of Republi-
can members of the lower branch of
the legislature are opposed to the
passage Of the bill in its present form

REBUTTAL HAS BEGUN.
Direct Evidence in Chicago Wages
Hearing Is Over.

Chicago, March 2.-Direct evidence
for the railroads in the western rail-
road wage arbitration was completed
today and rebuttal was begun. A. ".
Trenholm, general manager of the Chi
cago, st. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha
railroad, after two weeks in the wit
ness chair, was excused and w. J.
Lauck. a statistician, took the stand
for the men.
He introduced the one hundredth
exhibit in the case for the purpose of
comparing the productive efficiency
of western with eastern railroads.
1.-The capitalization as we'll as the
actual investment per mile of line is
considerably less in the West than
in the East Mr.. Lauck said. 1.-The
amount of revenue to meet capital
charges is, therefore, less in the West
than in the East.
Although passenger and freight
trainloads are greater in the East than
in the West, rates per passenger mile
and per ton mile are much higher in
the West. The hauls are also longer
in the West and the average amount
received from each passenger and
each ton Of freight is much greater
than in the East.
although engineers and firemen
receive higher rates of pay in the
West than in the East, the cost of
engineers and firemen per revenue

voiced this sentiment during the noon
hour.
why don't you play fair?" de-
manded one of the balcony lobbyettes.
She had waylaid a prominent senator

him and the hat under which he

weakly, as he executed a flank move

Louie Hans, the grim guardian of
the peace of the upper house, viewed
the senate's action with supreme dis
gust. 1t is up to Louie to keep the
peace in the upper house and he re-
CARDS all women lobbyists as an in
fringement of it.
They'll have 'em all back in here
again before night" was his gloomy
prediction as he viewed the senate's
endeavor to smooth down the ruffled
feelings of the Women'S lobby.

New York Stock Market.

Wall ST., New York, March 2-STOCKs-
Stocks pursued an uncertain course today,
the foreign situation giving rise to re-
newed apprehension.
Latest developments in the international
situation and the attitude of this govern
ment thereto subordinated all other con
siderations in the local market. Prices
shaded slightly, but the undertone was
firm. The prominence of New Haven at a
further advance was an unusual feature
that stock ranking with the leaders in
point of activity. Reading, Union Pactf1c
and United States Steel supplied about 40
per cent of the early trading. May depart
ment stores recovered a part of its recent
severe decline, but special ties as whole
were neglected
Bonds were irregular with more future
sales at concessions
Stocks continued to reflect the cautious
attitude of traders at the outset of todays
market price, changes being of mixed
character. Union Pacific, Northern Pa
cific, New York Central, New Haven and
Ontario and Western made substantial
gains. Specialties showed a better tone.
Dealings were in much smaller volume
than on the preceding day. In the Lon
don market Canadian Pacific was the only
international issue to manifest strength.
