STILL HERE
Rock Island Takes Offices Away
One by One.
O, S. & ID. Bureau Latest to
Leave Capital City.

| The Topeka Commercial club soon
will have to take measures, and per-
suade the Rock Island to leave the
passenger and freight station in this
city.
Topeka loses the Rock Island 0. s.

L. B. WhitmOre, chief of the bureau,
and his force of nine men, will leave
Topeka at that time to make their
residence at Chicago. This was an
nounced at the Rock Island offices
here today.
For a number of years the Rock
Island employed an o. S. and D. man
at every division superintendent Of
flee Last spring A. E. Sweet, gen
eral manager, and G.. w. Rourke. as
Sistant general manager, decided to
bring all of these men in the second
district to Topeka. Mr.. Whitmore was
put in charge.
Now it has been decided to make
this department system bureau.
From the three Rock Island districts
the o. S. and d. men will move to
Chicago. This department will be un-
der the direction of w o. Bunger,
general claim agent a brother of c. H.
Bunger, of Topeka, chief rate clerk of
the Santa F'e passenger department.
Officials say that the work can be
carried out in more practical way at
Chicago than at Topeka and elsewhere
along the Rock Island Lines.
This is the second Rock Island Of
flee to move away from Topeka this
year. ]. A. Stewart, general passenger
agent. and his force were moved to
Kansas City last August.
Z. B. WhitmOre, who heads the To-
cal bureau, is we'll known in Topeka
railroad and Masonic circles. He is
master of Sloan lodge.
1t is not known definitely whether
the entire office force here will go to
Chicago or not There is a chance

ness. Until the details of the presi-
dents policy are known, Senator Cur
tis stated that the Republicans would
not be in a position to outline their
course.
Il cannot say anything a this time
about my plans in Washington this
winter said Senator Curtis today. 1T
will be impossible to forecast the work
of the session or the plans of the Re
publican members until we know
something of the things which the
other fellow has in mind. Just now
it is quite indefinite and uncertain and
the course of Republican members
will not be definitely determined until
after the opening of the session"
Senator Curtis stated that he did
not at this time propose the introduce
tiOp of any important measures dur
ing the early weeks of the session. He
with other Republican members of
the senate and house will merely play
a watching game until the Democrats
have shown their hand.
Mrs. Curtis left last week for Wash
ington, while Fred Crossley, the sena-
tors secretary, left Sunday for the ma
riOnal capital.

ton to the fact that the president was

have told him that iuasmuch is the
house has sole authority to originate
revenue legislation, he ought not to
appear to uSurp that power. A num-
ber of Democratic leaders in con-
gress, including Mr.. Fitzgerald and
Senator Underwood, are opposed to
bond issue to provide the defense plan
because such expenditures would have
to be continued from year to year

attorney of Atchison county, and
made clear that he proposed to keep
an eye on the law enforcement off
cials of that county. Recently the
