GOVERNOR HOME

fire was discovered in a bedroom that
Rockefeller always occupied while
here.
Few of the rich furnishings of the
house, which was built by the oil king
forty years ago, were saved. Firemen
today were searching in the ruins for
a valuable oil painting of John D.,
himself, which he priced highly. All
the valuable paintings and art treas
ures were removed two years ago
when tax officials levied an assess
ment of several millions against him.
Few Oil Paintings Saved.
The belief of officials that the fire
was a touch-off was strengthened
when watchmen declared there was
fire in the furnace last night. A
large crowd which witnessed the blaze
was held on the edge of the estate by
:. nigh iron picket fence, which Dor
ders the entire Rockefeller property.
Five oil paintings of men and women
in colonial costumes and an immense
grandfather clock were among the
few things saved.
Friends of Rockefeller today de-
Cared the fire made certain that he
will not return to Cleveland. Mayor
Bill Hinshau of East Cleveland, a per
sonal friend of RockefeIler's, said he
believed John would stop his annual
visits here.
Estate Consists of 1900 Acres.
The estate surrounding the burned
house consists of twelve hundred acres
and it has been rumored that Rookie
Teller intended giving it to East CIeve-
land as a public park.
The home, a wooden structure, was
located on high hill in the center of
the estate, and the glare could be seen
for miles.

Kansas is to be the headlight of the
nation in the fight to make the United
States 'tbone- dry OF course the bill
as passed by the house Monday has to
go to the senate for confirmation but
the senate passed the original bill
and this one is not so very much diff
peka has amply reflected the ebb and
flow of sunshine in the cause of the
dry drive. Today had no great
burst and flow of sunshine but the
clouds were giIded and illuminated in
a sort of anticipatory smile prehmi-
nary to a great burst of the full grin
of victory which will probably be the
suns greeting to the making of the
desert dryness of the nation.
Then, too, the olive drab soldiers
of the nation in camp at Camp Doni-
phan are marching and drilling and
going about their multifarious duties
in an atmosphere tempered by a little
warmth. Oklahoma City reported a
temperature of SO degrees this morn
ing, so all you have to do today or
tomorrow to find out how the boys
are fixed on the weather subject is to
y
coat and parade about the streets at
a brisk pace.
Again the citizens of Topeka need
not envy the residents of northern
Florida, for in the matter of mild
temperatures today Florida lags be-
hind not only Kansas but the whole
northwest territory.
The official forecast as given out by
Meteorologist S. D. Flora of the local
weather bureau, indicates generally
fair weather tonight and Wednesday,
with somewhat warmer temperatures
in the west portion tonight.
Shippers need have no fear of 36-
hour shipments north, south or east
freezing.
The highest temperature ever re-
corded on this date in Topeka was in
1889, with a reading of 81 degrees,
and the lowest was in 1901, with a
record of one degree above the zero
point.
There has been no rain in the state
for the last two days, and according
to Flora, none should be expected, and
this in spite of the overcast condition
of the sky. Temperatures tomorrow
will be about the same as those re-
corded for today, unless the sun con-
descends to shine when the mercury
will stage an ascension that will
threaten the previous high records.

TODAY'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago, Dec. 1S-CORN-Continued
mild weather that promised increasing re-
ceipts gave a little advantage today to the
bears in corn. The fact, however, that as
yet no decided enlargement of the numbers
of arrivals had taken place tended to make
sellers cautious. Meanwhile the embargo
on eastbound shipments from Chicago re-
manned an effectuaI check on bulls. Open
ing prices, which varied from unchanged
figures to &c lower with January $1.201a
and May S11S15 TO S1.1S5s, were followed
by a slight general downturn.
The government order which stops the
manufacture of industrial alcohol from any
kind of corn except sample grade was con-
strued bearish. but the market rallied
on account of falling off in country ad-
vices of shipments and because of announce
ment of sharp decrease in North Ameri-
can available supplies of oats. The close
was firm II C to 1ac net higher, with jan
uary $1.21H and May $1-191s@ al. 1914.
.OATS-Oats declined as result of sales
to go to store. Besides nothing was heard
of any export bids.
PROVISIONS-Much more abundant re-
ceipts of hogs than had been expected
broke the provision market. Buying sup
port was poor

WHERE WAS BRITISH CRUISER?
WAS Supposed To Be With Convoy
Fleet But Was Elsewhere.

, London, Monday, Dec 1.-THE sue
iccssful attack by German warships on
a convoy in the North sea resulting in
the sinking of eleven vessels as an
rnounced in the house of commons to-
.day came as an uncomfortable sur
prise TO the British public. 1t is ex-
tpected to cause a revival of the seri-
Gus criticism of the admiralty such as
at~the time of the successful German
attack on a convoy of Scandinavian
merchantmen in October.
Added to this is the raid made off
the Tyne last Wednesday by German
iwarships. As a result of these two ex-
petitions one British destroyer has
been sunk, another seriously damaged,
five trawlers and eight merchantmen
Have been sent to the bottom, another
ttrawler has been damaged and a num-
be. of men have been killed, wounded
.or taken prisoners. Among the pris-
toner's is a nephew of ViscOunt c. ey,
former foreign secretary. According
go Danish accounts the force which
attacked the convoy consisted of four
CRUISERS in addition to destroyers.
e Was Most Violent Battle.
ts A painful aspect of the affair, from
the British public's point of view. is
.shat appareutly all the attacking YES
.sels escaped and returned to their
bases. Another unpleasant feature is
sShat the British cruiser squadron de-
tailed to protect the convoy against
Surface attacks, for some unexplained
reason was not on the scene. Vice
admiral Beatty Immediately opened
an inquiry and the first sitting was
held yesterday, being conducted by
Vice Admirals Sturdee, de Robeck and
Goodenough. The investigation will
be fastened rs much as possible.
According to the testimony of sur
.vivors both here and IN Scandinavia
the fighting was of the most violent
character.
The Germans poured hundreds of
shots into the Inflated vessels.
