VALUES HER NAME
Woman Wants $4,000 From Man
Who Slandered Her, Is Claim.

Clara F. Cannon conducts a rooming
home at 226-22S Kansas avenue, up
stairs. George Christopher operates
the Topeka Fruit and Produce COM
pany downstairs. Today Clara F. Can
non brought an $1,000 damage suit
in the district court against George
Christopher charging him with ruin
ing her business and slandering her
good name.
The plaintiff says in her petition
upon her roomers and offering them
money, fruit and beer, until finally,
one of them, Mrs. Irene Ready, a mar
ried woman, left the place in order to
avoid Christopher and his approaches.
She declares also that Christopher
told Mrs. Ready that Mrs. Clara Can
non was entertaining Mexicans in
her rooming house and that it was be-
cause of such "slanderous statements"
and her desire to avoid Christopher
that Mrs. Ready left the rooming
house.
1t is the contention of Clara Cannon
that Christopher's statements con-
corning. her have cost her $1,000 in
loss of business at the rooming house
and at restaurant which she also
operates. That accounts for $1,000 of
the total. She adds that the "libelous
and scandalous statements made re-
garding her by Christopher have
ruined her good name and she places
valuation of $4,000 upon that
Clara Cannon says she challenges
Christopher or any other person to
question her good name

FACTIONS CLASH
"High" and SLOW" Church in
Controversy at Conference.
Put Over Changes in Command
ments for Three Years.

St. Louis, Oct. 24.-That the Cath
olic" party in the Protestant Episco-
pal conference still has conside rable
vitality was the prediction today fol-
lowing a resolution introduced in the
house of deputies last night to Incor-
porate the phrase, 1.-The Holy Catholic
church" on the title page of the an
cient church liturgy. The proposition
was referred to the joint commission
on common prayer and probably Will
be acted on late today.
1t was thought the Catholic" fac
ton would not ask any changes fol-
lowing the lack of interest in a propo-
sition earlier in the conference ses-
sion, to change the name of the
church to the Catholic Church of
America
Didn't Change Commandments.
1t was also learned today that no
change in the ten commandments
would be made at this conference.
Last week it was rumored the house
of bishops. the upper house of the
church, favored the shortening of the
commandments. Today it definitely
said the joint commission on revising
and enriching the liturgy of the
church would not present the matter
at the present conference. Whether
the commission would continue its
work and report to the next Detroit
conference in 1919 could not be
learned

Wilcox declared today in a statement
mailed to washington newspaper cor

'AIr. Wilson may have succeeded in
palming off n gold brick on the presi-
dents Of the railway brotherhoods, but
he can't deceive the men they repre-
sent. once they get a chance to exam
inc the bill for themselves"
He declared the Adamson act makes
,ry railway employe subject not
only to Injunction, but to fine of
500 10 $1,000 or one years impris-
onment. or both. for interfering with
interstate traffic This fact had been
pointed to him by William J. Pinker-
ton. member of the Brotherhood of
Rsilway Trainmen and candidate
against w G. Lee for president of
that orga nization at the last election.
The announcement of President Low
EFT of the Union Pacific and President
Underwood of the Erie of their sup
port of Wilson should make railroad
men suspicious, Wilcox said.
