Columbus All Wrought Up
But Not Over HoUat Trial
Citizens Are in Frenzy of Excitement Over Changed Date

for criminal violation of the industrial
court law in calling a strike, is now
only few hours away. Columbus is
much wrought up.
But it is not over the coming trial
or the planned mobilization in Colum-

labor unions for demonstration in
favor of Howat. The question that
disturbs the town is whether the week

urday night as in the past or shall be
given on some other night of the week.
As to the trial and demonstration.
Columbus is not worrying at all, not
yet. In outside newspaper reports
Columbus has read about big demon
stration and that is about all that Col
unlbus knows about it,

Detroit, Mich, June 26.-The ques-

the annual national convention of the
Socialist party convention which
opened here this morning.
Its endorsement, however, Is un-
likely as an overwhelming majority
of the delegates are moderate" So

special agent. for the railroad, and
members of the Pittsburg police force.
asked the men to leave the train. Only
two or three of the men resisted. Some
of the men said they were on the way

The men spent the rest OF the night
in Pittsburg and this morning were
given breakfast by the Salvation Army

Officials of the Kansas City South

from recent rains and the addition OF

possibility of an accident. In the
event of such an accident, 1t was point
ed out, the company would be liable
for damages unless an effort had beer
made to get the men off the train.

Drop of Two Cents Per Gallon Be.
comes Effective Today.

Gasoline, kerosene and naphtha
slipped down the ladder another notch
this morning. The reduction in price
which became effective at z o'clock
amounted to two cents a gallon on
each of the three.
Gasoline is now sold at the filling
stations at 1875 cents a gallon. From
the tank wagons it will cost 17.6 cents.
Kerosene will sell for 81 cents from
the tank wagons.
Gasoline and kerosene delivered in
the rural districts cost z cent more
than in the city.
The reduction was made effective
by all the companies doing business

ton in the price of crude oil.

today 2 cents a gallon. and it is now
selling at 1876 cents.

LET'S GOs

It's a dollar and cents proposition.
Topeka will invest 100000 in a
modern, up-to-date hotel.
The hotel will be leased on q basis
which will bring the equivalent of a
per cent return to the holders of the
preferred stock; that is. per cent
with taxes paid.
It will bring thousands of dollars
to the city. The two new hotels In
Des Moines made possible the enter
tainment of conventions, two of which
alone brought to that city more than
$1,000, 900.
With proper management the orig
inaI investment will be refunded in
due time, and Topeka will have Its
hotel and its money back.
It will remove a standing reproach
from the Capital City of Kansas.
It will give US 100000 of good ad-
vertising to replace a million damns
It's one good investment for every
citizen Of Topeka.

Wives and children of Shawnee

was carried thru.
The establishment of these rooms

worked woman of the surrounding
country. She leaves her baby or small
child to the kind care of Miss Krig-
baum while she is visiting the stores.
Then when the business is accom-
plished she returns to the rest room,
and then takes a rest in an easy chair
or. a nap in the little bedroom. The
day has been pleasure instead of a
horror. .-s.---.

association will erect over north

QUESTION ORDER OF COURT
Attack on Industrial Court Made by
Packing Company Attorney.

Constitutionality of the state indus
trial court law as well as reasonable
ness of the courts order in the Wolff
Packing company wage case was
questioned before the supreme court
today. The attack on the industrial
court act is made by D. r. Hite, as
attorney for the company, in answer
to the industrial courts application
for peremptory writ of mandamus
to compel enforcement of its decree.
The. Wolff company recently asked
for an alternative writ to compel the
industrial court to suspend its order.
The industrial court then sought per-
emptory writ to force the packing
company to obey the writ. The su-
preme court issued an alternative writ
in the form of a peremptory writ and
will later determine whether a COM
missioner will be appointed to take tes-
timony in the case. The Hite answer
filed today raises many of the ques-
tions presented in a brief recently filed
with the court by Col. John S. Dean
