TO COST S5OO,OO0
Engineer Forecasts Expense of
Water improvements.
Says Topeka Should Plan Ahead
Twenty Years.

Costly. extended improvements for
the Topeka water plant with an ag-
sregate outlay of possibly $500. 900.
are forecast as a necessity by j. H.
Howland, of New York. engineer of
the National Board of Fire Underwrit-
ers. now gathering data in Topeka
Results of the inyestigat ton and i'm
provements deemed necessary by How
land will be placed before Topeka cit
izens Thursday evening in a meeting
at the Chamber of Commerce. The
city commissioners. members of the
civic committee and others actively in
terested in securing an adequate water
supply for Topeka will attend
Topeka has. to my knowledge .
Howland state today lived on the
verge of serious shortage for a period
of ten years 1t is time some actual,
beneficial work of improvement is un-
dertaken. Nothing temporary should
be considered. Plans should be made
for the next twenty years"
Howland believes that, among 9TH
er improvements. A storage reservoir
of at least 5000 900 gallon capacity
should be constructed. He favors q
filtration plant. provided the river is
stable source of supply.
Fire insurance rates here are due
for another boost very soon. Howland
pointed out. unless something is done
ToI'eka has faced the problem of in
croasing its supply for a long period
of years Meanwhile, Rowland said
insurance rates are bound to increase
steadily.

CALL CLEW
Six Alleged Bandits Taken by
Kansas City Cops.
Are Accused of Being Gang
That Killed Cashier.

Kansas City, Mo, March 10.-Four
men and two women were held today
for investigation in connection with
the attempt to hold up the South Side
bank yesterday. J. E. Morgan, one of
the men arrested, was wounded in the
hip. and believed by police to be the
man shot by a bank employe following
the killing of the cashier.
An anonymous telephone call led
to the capture of the alleged bandit
The big automobile in which the ban
dts made their getaway yesterday
was found abandoned. 1t was identi-
fled as a stolen machine. Cartridges
were found in the tonneau and one
bullet mark on the body.
Those held as suspects gave the
names of Joseph Burke, Charles B.
johnson. Walter ]. Smith and James
E Morgan. Held as material wit
nesses are Mrs. Daisy Evans, wife of
George, and Mrs. Lucy Evans
Additional arrests were expected
momentarily by the police today in
connection with the sensational at
tempt early yesterday to hold up the
Southside bank. in which Glen NJ
Shockey. cashier, was killed and sew
eraI persons wounded. This announce
ment was made at police headquarters
1t was explained that those con-
nected with the bank had been up all
night working with the police on the
case. Other witnesses of the at
tempted holdup. however, were sum-
moned to police department today to
! look at the men under arrest in ar
attempt to identify them.

Democrats and Mild Reserva-
tiOnists Are In Conference.
Article Ten of Peace Pact Be-
fore Senate Today.
NEITHER SIDE IS CONFIDENT
Agreement Can Come Ohfy
After Surrender by Some One.
Question Still Same as 1t Was
Last November.

Washington. March 1O.-The senate
today took up Article y.
The question on which the coming
presidential campaign may turn and
upon which ratification of the treaty
hinges, is now before senators.
No senator dared predict whether
the difficulty separating the two par
ties will be reconciled and some form
Of compromise on this article adopted
But the belief is general that if a
so-called compromise is agreed to. it
will mark a surrender by one side or
the other of principles which both
have repeatedly declared to be vital
and never to be surrendered.
The question today is just what il
was last November. 1t is simply:
Shall the United States assume an
obligation to help protect other ma
tions against a predatory warfare or
shall it refuse that obligaion?"
Continue Compromise Hunt.
While debate on the much disputed
section of the league of nations cove
nant is in progress, negotiations look
ing TO a compromise on the Republi-
can reservations will be continued, tho
both sides frankly are without much
hope that an agreement will be ef-
fected.
Several Republican leaders drafted
which they said they obtained the
support of 23 Democrats but even that
number is from two to six short of the
minority votes needed by the majority
to ratify the treaty carrying qualifi-
cations which President Wilson had
declared cut the very heart from
the pact
The reservation on voting power IN
the league, declaring that the United
States declines to be bound by deci-
sions to which congress has not as
scented until voting power is made
equal, was readopted yesterday. Some
Democrats favoring reservations ar
ranged for a conference today in the
office of Senator owen, of Oklahoma,
in an effort to expedite ratification.
Here is Article Ten. on which the
fate of the peace treaty again is sus-
pended
1.-The members of the league un-
dertake to respect and preserve as
against external aggression the terri
torial integrity and existing political
independence of all members of the
league. In case of any such aggres-
sion or in case of any threat or danger
OF such aggression the council shall
advise upon the means by which this
obligation shall be fulfilled"
Democrats Arc Weakening.
A score of Democratic senator's met
today in Senator Owens office in an
effort to agree on some reservation to
Article Y. At the same time Repub-
lican mild reservationists were exert
ing themselves trying to get an agree
ment. But when the senate met none
of these efforts had succeeded. 1t was
stated at that time that twenty eight
Democrats had tentatively agreed to
accept some modification of the Lodge
