have in many instances doubled and
in virtually all instances greatly in
creased in the past year, the fault is
largely with Greece. If there be seri-
Gus discomfort in the country it is
quite as much due to bad internal
management as to the mastery of the
Mediterranean maintained by the
Franco-British fleet. The starving
process, therefore, is much more apt
to lead to trouble for the present
Greek cabinet than, unaccompanied
by any other circumstance, to Greece s
enforced participation in the war.
Desperate for Food.
For the common people of Greece
the situation is rapidly growing des-
perate. The streets of Athens are alive
with beggars. The Island of Samos
is in a state of sporadic revolt. Pireus
and Patras have had disquieting DEM
onstrations of popular discomfort UNI
der the increased cost of living While
a million and a quarter pounds of
potatoes rot on the ground in Thes-
sally for lack of transport, the price of
potatoes in Athens has risen from "a
cents to AS cents a pound in the last
year. Yet the second attempt to fix
maximum prices of foodstuffs. which
went into effect at the end of January
and which is supposed to be rigorous
ly enforced by the police, set the
wholesale price of potatoes at Is
cents a pound, maximum, ana the re-
tail price at cents a pound Potatoes
today, therefore. cost twelve times the
legal price and double the market
price of a year ago, though there is
no lack of potatoes within a days
sail of Athens.
Beef 81 Cents a Pound.
1t is much the same with almost
every other article of food normally
within reach of people of moderate
means. No cargoes of rice have been
held up by the police boats of the al
lied powers-yet rice, which in Janu-
airy, 1915, was 40 cents per pound,
today brings 1912 cents. Mutton, the
principal meat consumed in Greece.
was 10 cents a pound a year ago; now
it fetches 10 cents-and Greece sup

Beef was 90 cents; now it is 81 cents

ID. o. McCray was on the witness
stand this afternoon and testified that
in 1888 he was associate editor of the
Topeka Daily Capital On Oct IS, 1855
the day of the exposition at Coffey-
vile, {. A. Henrie, came to the Capital
office at least twice; once between nine
and ten o'clock in the forenoon, and
again in the afternoon.
The testimony which was mistaken
on discrimination is important as
the prosecution has tried to show that
Henrie placed the dynamite box in the
office at Coffeyville the same day.

Police Captain Tim Donovan is one
of the happiest men in Topeka today
although last night he vas the victim
of misplaced confidence.
1t happened this way: The captain
and Sergeant O'Rourke were at the
opera house about eight O'Clock when
a messenger from the station called
them out and told them that they were
to report at Second and Madison
streets as the word had come in that
there was poker game at that place.
As they passed the Captains house
at DBL Madison the Sergeant suggested
that perhaps the other Officers had
stopped there until all hands should
arrive The captain fell into the trap
and opened his front door-and forgot
all about the poker game. His brother
officers and their wives were all there
and having a good time
The captain was presented with a
handsome upholstered chair as a token
of esteem from the boys of the force.
The chair was the best that he could
find and the captain says it is too good
for his home.
