HAD CLOSE CALL! POLICE TRAPPED
Billiard, Topeka Aviator, Wrecks
Machine at Solomon.
Tried To Land in Alfalfa Field
To Fix Motor.

Phil Billiard, Topeka aviator, and
Alexander Caldwell, a passenger

narrowly escaped injury today when
the military bip1ane in which the two
were flying from Topeka to Salina
turned on it's nose and was consider
ably damaged as Billiard was trying
to land near Solomon. The accident
occurred shortly before noon.
Billiard, with Caldwell in the pas
senger's seat, left the hangar at High
land Park shortly after o'clock this
morning. The machine flew high and
the day was an ideal one for the pur-
pose. At Fort Riley Billiard paused
long enough to do some stunts" that
made the student officers in the train
ing camp gasp and then continued
his flight. About a mile this side of
Solomon something went wrong with
the motor and Billiard decided to land
and investigate things. Eyewitnesses
of the accident stated over the long
was about 1000 feet in the air when
about a half mile from the place
where the landing was attempted.
Hit Alfalfa Field.
From that point Billiard guided his
machine downward and tried to land
in an alfalfa field just north of the
Santa Fe depot in Solomon. The al
falfa was all of a foot and a half high
and apparently some part of the ma
chine caught in the foliage. The big
biplane suddenly appended on its nose.
Caldwell was thrown several feet but
wasn't injured. Billiard stayed in the
machine and wasn't hurt either.
The biplane was damaged consider
ably The propeller was smashed and
the gasoline tank demolished.
Several mechanical parts were also
damaged. The planes escaped injury.
First word of the accident was re-
ceived in Topeka when Billiard tele-
| phoned his brother Robert, and asked
| him to have A. K. Longren to send
crates to ship the machine back to
! this city, saying it had been damaged
I in an accident. Details were learned
! thru long distance calls to Solomon
! Billiard was on his way to Salina to
engage in a two days series of ex-

Brewster Opinion Affecting
Funds Expected This Week.
Special Enactments Cut Into
General Revenue Fund.
AUTO Dept HOLDS $4,000
Fish and Game Warden Has
$4,000 Surplus Now.
Grain Inspection Funds Are
Also in a MiXup.

Fees aggregating nearly s125,000
may be lost by the state under de-
cisions which are expected to come
this week from the office of S. M.
Brewster, attorney general. The fees
which have formerly gone into the
geenral revenue fund at the close of
the fiscal year, are now controlled by
special enactments by the 1917 legis-
lature. Fred Knapp, state auditor,
has asked the attorney general for
ruling concerning the various funds.
The big fees concern the state grain
inspection department, the fish and
game department and the automobile
license department. Nearly $4,000
now held by the automobile depart
ment may be kept out of the treasury
and held at the disposal of the de-
partment during the next year. The
remaining balance, with accumula-
tons, must go back to the various
counties in July, 1918. w G. Togo
mier. state fish and game warden,
holds about $4,000 for which the
legislature forgot to provide a final
resting place. Another fund of $780,
600 is in the grain inspectors revolv-
ing fund without a legislative enact
ment to guide its course.
Many Mixups.
Mixups over state funds are due to
many changes in existing statutes by
the state 1917 legislature. 1t was the
effort to provide for the various funds

Drydale, Mo-, June 2S.-An Leav-

Grain TRADE OPEN
Only Wheat Will Carry Ban on
Boards of Trade.
This Only Grain Govt Will
Control Absolutely.

Chicago, June 2S.-Government
plans for food control according to
statement given Que here today by
President Griffin or the board of
trade include absolute control of the
wheat trade in all it's commercial as
poets. There can be no speculation in
it. Buying and selling of other grains
for present or future delivery will be
unrestricted.
Mr.. Griffin's statement follows:
ION Tuesday and Wednesday of this
week, representatives of the grain ex-
changes of the United States were in
conference at Washington with Her
bert c. Hoover. food administrator;
julius NJ. Barnes. his chief assistant
and others connected with the food
administration.
THE plan decided on will permit
unrestricted competitive buying and
selling of all commodities for present
and future delivery with the exception
of wheat. The United States govern
ment thru it's food administration will
completely dominate the distribution
of wheat for domestic and export pur-
poses. Not only will they purchase
the wheat for this government but
for the allies and neutrals as well.
MiIlers Under Govt. Control.
THE millers likewise will come I'M
der control of the food administra-
ton and their wheat will be purchas-
ed and flour distributed under the
same control. AS must be apparent
the operation of this plan will preclude
possibility of trading in wheat for fu-
ture delivery. However, commission
merchants, receivers and others acting
as agents in the purchase and sale OF
sample grain will be permitted to ham
die (sample) wheat on the same basis
