PROBE into CANAL PLOT
ment Witness; More Arrest After
Plan to Blow Welland Canal.

New York, Dec. 2O.-The depart
ment of justice through William M
Offley, head of the bureau of investi-
CATION here, continued today its search
for evidence regarding the activities of
Paul Koenig. Richard E. Lyendecker
and Frederick Metzler in the alleged
conspiracy to blow up the Welland
canal.
Koenig and Lyendecker are at lib
erty on bail, but Metzler is in the
custody of federal officials and has
not been arraigned. 1t is understood
the purpose of delaying Metzler's ar
raignment is to prevent his where
abouts becoming known to the other
alleged conspirators, in the hope that
Metzler will disclose to government
agents the details of the conspiracy.
1t was said today that possibly
Metzler would become a witness for
the government. It is reported that
an examination of the books of Koe-
mig and Lyendecker will result in a
large number of additional arrests.
While the department of justice
agents are investigating the Welland
plot it is understood the federal grand
jury will resume this week its in
quiry into the activities of labor's ma
tional peace council, accused by the
United States district attorney of TO
menting strikes in war munition
plants.

CLAIM UP TO CITY
Man Who Sees Double Asks
$3,1O6 in Damages.
Fell on Head in Street While
Riding Bicycle.

Three thousand ono hundred and
six dollars is the amount of money
demanded of the city by F. Y. Camp
field, of SOL Lane street, because he
struck a gutter crossing with his hi
cycle. fell on his head in the street
and caused his eyes to see double
The claim came before the city
commission this morning and was
handled without discussion. Mayor J.
e. House simply referred it to the city
attorney, George p. Hayden and w.
G.. Tandy, who was acting mayor at
the time of the accident.
Mr.. CamDfield threatens by implica-
ton to sue the city if the claim is not
allowed. He charges that the accident
was due to an unlawful order issued
by the city permitting the piling of
leaves in the cutters. On the morn
ing of Friday, October 90, he was rid
ing his bicycle past the corner at
West Tenth and Lincoln streets. He
states that the gutter crossing was
covered with leaves and that because
of the leaves he ran his bicycle into it.
He was thrown to the pavement and
struck with such force that he became
unconscious He was taken to a hos
Dital and in the meantime n wagon
came along ana rolled over what was
left of his bicycle completely destroy
ing it. He states that since the acct
dent his eyes have been affected and
that he sees double.
Mr.. Campfield places the value of
his bicycle at $40, he fixes the dam
ages to his clothes at So, asks for
$40 for one doctor and SIS for an
other. asks for So for the hospital,
and $54 for the loss of wages. All
that is for material damage. Then he
asks TOR $4,000 for suffering endured.
After making these claims Mr..
Campfield announces that he wants it
understood by the commission that by
fixing the amounts given he is not to
be bound by aaV action he NAV bring
that the figures are offered merely in
the nature of q compromise.

TO be female, Porter could have dis
posed of it for four or five hundred
dollars. But the males have little
value except for meat. The parks and
ranges over the country are well sup

If 1 can't get a meat market to
handle the meat on a reasonable
basis" said Porter, 81 am going to
open a market for a couple of days
down in front of the Auditorium. l am
going to get some clean-looking meat
cutter, dress him up in a white apron
and white cap and put him to work.
l believe there would be a ready mar
ket for the meat. What l can't sell
will be worth ten cents a pound to my
department out at Gage park. We pay
that much for meat for the animals
right along. We spend about $34 for
meat for the animals every month

GRIP CRIPPLES P. 0.
Employees Forced to Remain at Home
During Heaviest Christ
mas Rush.

The grip has struck Topeka's post
office force, and struck it at a bad
time. Many of the employees are suf-
fering so severely that they are unable
to work. Many others are at work
but they admit they are not worth
much to the department in their pres
ent condition.
1.-The epidemic couldn't have come
at a worse time" said w. o. Rigby,
postmaster. I'VE need every aVaila BILE
man right now. Most of them are stay
ing with their jobs but they can't do
their best work. The grip is no re-
specter of persons. Some of the most
important cogs in the wheels of this
department arc suffering from the
epidemic"

TO SELL BUFFALO MEAT
The City Has a Fat Animal for Slaugh-
ter-May Start a Municipal
Butcher Shop.

Want a buffalo steak for Christmas
dinner?
You're going to have the chance.
for tomorrow or next day fine
4-year-old male buffalo out at Gage
park will be butchered and placed in
cold storage. The steaks will be on
sale probably Thursday and Friday
and the price is not going to be out
of sight.
Commissioner w L. Porter, who
has charge of the butchering, has not
determined how the meat will be sold.
He is trying to make arrangements
with some meat market to handle it
upon d reasonable basis but if he
can't do that he is going to open
municipal meat market for two days
in front of the Auditorium, employ
meat cutter and dispose of the buffa-
10 steaks in that manner.
During the early days in Kansas
buffalo meat was not looked upon so
much as a delicacy as a necessity. 1t
formed almost the entire meat supply
of many a camp along the Santa Fe
trail. But since the buffalo has been
almost completely wiped out of exist
ence the meat has gone from the list
of necessities to that of luxuries.
The buffalo that will be killed is in
fine condition. He was taken off the
pasture several months ago and has
been fed all the grain he would eat.
He is fat and Sid Hercules. animal
keeper. says he ought to be tender.
Commissioner Porter telephoned over
town today to secure some butcher
who would do the job and he has had
some trouble finding one. The carcass
will be placed in cold storage for a
day or two, then will be placed on
sale. Commissioner Porter believes
there are dozens of families in To-
on real buffalo meat.
Anyway, there is no sale for male

TO START FIGHT
Oil Men of Kansas VIII Move
on Congress.
They Oppose the Proposed War
Tax on Gasoline.
The PRICE is HIGH ENOUGH
Cheaper Here Than in Amy
Other State in Union.
New Workers Compelled to Pay
% Cents a Gallon.
THE PRICE is HIGH ENOUGH

Local gasoline dealers will leave to-
| night for Hutchinson, where refiners,
| producers and jobbers from all parts
/ of the state will meet Tuesday morn
| ing to direct the fight from Kansas
on the proposed war tax of 1 cent a
| gallon on gasoline. The bill providing
for the tax is now in the house of
re representatives. and is before the com
mittee on ways and means. of which
| Guy T. HeIvering, of the Fifth district,
| is a member.
Announcement of the proposed tax
has stirred gasoline users to arms.
coming as it does on top of a series of
advances in price. Within two days
last week, crude oil from which gaso-
line is manufactured went up 20 cents
a barrel That advance was followed
by a raise of / cent a gallon in the re-
tail price of gasoline. A number OF
advances. preceded that and dealers
believe that the price is due for fur
Their advances within a few days.
Lubricating oil has made d slight
advance within the past few days and
sharp advances are expected by deal
ers Immediately after the first of the
year Kerosene is also due for a raise,
dealers say.
Lower Than Elsewhere.
Despite the numerous advances
within the past three months, the price
of gasoline in Kansas is below that OF
practically every other state in the
Union Market quotations here are
city and 1871 for Out-of-town deliv-
cries This is lower than the price of
gasoline in Oklahoma, where practi-
calIy all of the crude oil used here is
purchased. In New York, gasoline is
selling for from "a cents to 25 cents
a gallon.
The presidents statement that gaso-
line as a luxury should be subject to
war tax is being bitterly criticized in
all parts of the country, according to
Ernest Winters, manager of the To
peka Oil company, who will attend the
meeting in Hutchinson tomorrow
More than so per cent of the gasoline
users are not automobile owners says
Mr. winters. but are persons who are
compelled to use it because it is the
cheapest fuel obtainable- 1t is used in
lighting systems and to furnish power
for engines. To add war tax on top
of the advances that have already
been made will strike hardest in the
home of the poor man."
According to Mr.. WitnerS, fight on
the tax is being made in every state in
the country. Strong talent also has
been employed to represent refInerS
dealers in Washington.
