TO HELP FARMER
Industrial Court Asked to
Modify Car Order.
Distribution Regulations Favor
the Elevator Men.
TO SET An EARLY HEARING
Farmers Complain That All
Cars Are "GObbled Up"
Mills and Elevator Men Corner
All Shipping Facilities.

The legal department of the court
of Industrial relations today filed with
the court an application for modifica-
ton of the car distribution order is
sued a year ago by the public utilities
commission. This order was in keep
ing with a decree from the interstate
commerce commission and provided
that cars should be allotted in pro-
portion to the amount of grain to be
shipped by the car applicants.
Farmers have complained that they
are unable to secure ears under the
present order. They assert that all
transportation is gobbled by the mills
and elevators. In many cases, so COM
plants state, elevator owners have
forced small growers to sell their crops
at less than market prices. A hearing
on the application to modify the ap-
portionment order is filed in behalf OF
the grain growers and will be heard
by the court at an early date.

record on the course is a 81.
Hurley in golf terms is a sweet"

rain it was not uncommon to see his
tee shots scream their way to 25 and

Great Iron Shots.
His iron shots are the best ever wit

irons and cleeks carry farther than the
ordinary golfers brassies. His back
spin mashie-ni -niblicks to the green are
deadly in their accuracy and control.
His putting has been exceptional. 1t
is common knowledge in match play
that when an opponent sinks a long
putt player usually is unnerved and
misses Hurley puts even better
when it is necessary to win or halve
hole on the green.
Hurley's victory in the State Invita-

players not acquainted with the course.
He took to a trimming players who
were fully as well acquainted with the

A widely known golfer from
Hutchinson who was following the
Hurley-Carl match Wednesday after
noon remarked: "Carl indicates nerv-

that I was playing against the best
golfer in the state terrified me-es-

Probably no other golfer in Topeka,
irrespective of age and experience and
length of golf service. has the collec-
ton of golf cups; and medals that Hur-
ley possesses.

Hurley is a great follower of cor
rect form in golf. He played five
years as youngster before he learned
the proper method of handling his
clubs. 1t wasn't until he took up the
finer and recognized Joints in the
game that he made a reputation in
the west.
Not a player in the Invitation

TO KEEP MARTIAL LAW
Open Shop War at Galveston Has Set
tied Into Absolute Deadlock.

Galveston. Tex, Aug. 26.-With the
water front controversy deadlocked
into what union labor leaders declared
had been purely an open shop" in
dustrial struggle, martial law will con-
tinue in Galveston until at least the
end of the year unless longshoremen
call off their strike, it was indicated
today at the headquarters of Brig.
Gen. j. F. Wolters, commanding
troops on duty here.
Governor Hobby. who placed state
troops in charge June Z. and later sus-
pended city officials and civil police
authority, has no plan under consid-
Grafton to end the martial regime,
Ralph H. Soape, his confidential secre-
tary. declared.
Soape declared any action to restore
civil government must be taken by
Galveston city officials who, following
failure of their efforts to enjoin the
military in federal courts. apparently
have adopted a policy of "watchful
waiting" until the state administration
expires early in January.

GOING is HARDER
Railway Passengers Find
Travel 20 Per Cent Harder.
Traffic Falls OH First Day
Rush Just Before.

Chicago. Aug. 26.-The going was
harder today. The goer was charged
20 per cent more for his railway fare
and so per cent more for whatever
accommodations he obtained from the
Pullman company. Railway traffic
fell off today because of the increase.
The fall was the more apparent be-
cause of the grand rush for the last
ride at the old rate. Tourists skipped
under the rope by purchasing tickets
at the last minute. There was a great
lack OF accomm odatiOns for all who
wanted to go. The regular trains had
been sold out days in advance and
extra equipment was scraped UP
wherever possible to exc out
Because of the demand from all
railway centers, the extra equipment
was hard to find and hundreds OF
passengers started from Chicago oc-
cupying standing room only.
Reports here were that other cen
ters had similar rushes
Freight rates advanced also at mid
night. In the Chicago district they
rose 34.74 per cent. 1t was higher

changed in many instances. Among

was said to have made the Identified
ton.
The sister also stated. according to
the police, that five diamond rings and
several hundred dollars which Mrs.
Schultz ..ad with her when they left
home last Sunday were missing.
Detectives were inclined to believe
the woman had been killed as she rode
in an automobile and her body
dragged to the thieket where It was
found. TIL Identification, however,
was not accepted as absolute, in view
of the fact that the body last night
was partially identified as that of

that later this was denied.

London, Aug. 26.-With the Anglo
Italian ultimatum to Russia scheduled
to expire tomorrow evening. uncon-
firmed reports were circulated here to-
day that the Bolsheviki were planning
10 attack British possessions in the
east.
The Pail Mall Gazette said it had
learned from authoritative sources
that Moscow had ordered Leo Kamen-
off Bolshevik trade commissioner. to
leave London even before expiration
of the time limit set in the Balfour
note. Kameneff was credited with
saying that his departure would be
equivalent to declaration of war
against Great Britain.
Military experts confirmed the
strategic soundness of the rumored
red plan for an attack against British
eastern possessions, pointing out that
the best defense against an entente
drive from the west would be invasion
of India.
There was no important change in
the military situation on the Russo
