RELEASE NINE "DIP" CASES
Only Two New Ones Reported to City
Health Department.

Nine cases were released from the
diphtheria quarantine today by the
city health department, according to
DR.. Earle G. Brown, city health off
Ger. Two new cases were reported to-
day, making a total of 2S6 cases re-
ported for the month.
MANY peculiar situations are de-
veloping as the disease continues,
said Doctor Brown.
For instance. we are met at every
hand with the statement, Well. there
aren't many of them dying-why do
you insist upon such precautions?
That. to my idea, is foolish. We are
glad deaths have been few-but it is
the after effect of the diphtheria tEat
is dangerous. Flu is far easier to con-
troll than diphtheria. Because people
die from flu. and others are, therefore,
careful
I'm many cases of diphtheria the
victims are left with paralysis or may
be g. weakness of the heart. The
paralysis may take place in the throat
muscles, and cause difficulty in swal-
lowing, or the heart action may be
and often is impaired.
Ninety out of the 450 cases which
we have worked on since the epidemic
started have been left with impaired
speech or heart action. That should
make the people think"

BLOCK KAN. MINES
HOWat Supporters VIII Not Let
Miners Work.
Union CZar Returns Funds to
Illinois District.

Pittsburg, Kan, Oct. 26.-"RebeI''
miners supporting alexander Howat
today began an offensive on coal mines
in the southern part of the Kansas
district which had resumed operations.
AS a result mines which opened
Monday were closed down again. The
men who had returned to work. re-
fused to remain in the pits, when it
was learned the strikers were ap-
preaching.
The operators claimed 1000 men
were working in the district. while
Howat's leaders asserted there were
only 200 at work.
Howat, at the Columbus Jail, today
signed a check for $4,000, returning
funds of that amount to the Illinois
miners, who had LOANED it to the Kan
sas district for the fight against the
industrial court.
This it was stated, will prevent the
fund from being used by the new ad-
ministration which Succeeded Howat.
1t is believed the fund will be re-
turned to Howat for use in his fight
against the industrial court. Howat
received a numbers of visitors today,
the regular Jail visiting day. He has
five more months of his sentence to
serve.
About the same number of mines in
district No. IA were at work today as
worked yesterday, according to an an
nouncement by the operators associa-
tion office. It was stated that ap-
proximately twenty-five shovel mines
and two deep mines were in operation

Kansas Has Money to Fight
Cattle and Hog Disease But
Not a Cent For Diphtheria
Couldn't Afford Appropriation for State Board
of Human Health, So Dr. S. J. Crumbine Appeals
Today Governor Allen.

Governor Allen said the money
would be forthcoming. He admitted,
tho, that he didn't know just where
to get it.
One prospect which faced the state
was necessity of an appeal for private
subscriptions. In this manner the re-
sponsibility of the state might be
passed to the local communities where
prompt assistance is needed in fighting
communicable diseases. Several years
ago when the state health fund was
exhausted William Allen White raised
fund of $500 in Emporia. Similar
methods may now be employed in
other towns in order to take the re-
sponsibility off the state. Another
time the state in ten minutes made
$4,000 available for a fight on the
foot and mouth disease in cattle herds
in southern Kansas and quibbled forty
days over an emergency appropriation
of SIS, 600 for the state tuberculosis
sanatorium.
must eliminate a few junket plans and
open a contingent fund for purchase
of antitoXin or join in an appeal to
the towns and counties to help the
state meet its problem. DR.. Crumbine
asserted today that the diphtheria re-
ports showed the disease had already
reached epidemic stage in Kansas.
Today's reports showed 672 active
cases in the state-an increase of 73
over a week ago.
There have been number of
deaths

RETURN CAMPBELL'S PAPERS
Topeka Druggist Is Robbed of 2,7OO
Worth of JeWelry.

After robbing him of more than
$4,000 worth of jewelry, two men who
held up T. V. Campbell, proprietor of
the Campbell Drug company, and Mrs.
garage at their home, S04 Topeka
boulevard, just before midnight Tues
day night, obligingly returned a bunch
of keys and some valuable papers
which they had taken from him. The
papers and keys were found in Camp
avenue and Quincy streets this morn
ing by a mail carrier. They were the
keys to his store and home.
AS the car stopped in the alley at
the garage, the two men appeared and
pointing guns at Mr.. and Mrs Camp
bell ordered them to hold up their
hands. Campbell was then instructed
to turn out the lights of his car. While
the larger of the two men went thru
CampbelPs pockets, the smaller one
took from Mrs. Campbell two rings
valued at $500. Campbell lost a three
karat diamond ring valued at $4,000,
500 Elgin watch, a purse containing
$50 and bunch of keys.
Both men appeared to be slightly
nervous, Campbell said. He said the
larger mans hands trembled as he
went thru his pockets and that the
smaller fellow was so frightened that
he failed to get Mrs. CampbelPs
watch from her purse and another
ring which had fallen into her lap.
I'VE didn't have a chance in the
world" said Campbell. Il didn't have
a gun and they had US covered so all
we could do was to do what they told
US to-.
After the men had disappeared
Campbell drove out of the alley with
his lights out and went to police head
quarters. where he reported the loss.
The robbers have not been found.
O. mnbelI said that on Oreu-iOfIs occa
sions he had seen men lurking about
Z the place and expressed belief that
they had been waiting fer some time
J the opportunity to rob him.

The 1921 legislature seemingly fol-
lowed the beaten path. 1t made a
strong appeal to the livestock and
farming interests with big appropria-
tions for fighting disease among the
cattle. hogs and sheep. But it was
counting the 1 ennies and nickels in
providing for preservation of the
health of the citizens on foot.
Because of the inadequate appro-
priatiOn by the last legislature. DR..
S. ]. Crumbine, secretary of the state
board of health, today appealed to
Governor Allen for money for pur-
chase of antitoxin with which to fight
the diphtheria epidemic. The appro-
priation of 81. 500 for serums and anti
toxin has been exhausted. Now the
state is in the midst of the fight with
out funds.
Despite the fact that the legislature
provided generously-a record expen-
diture of 81 million dollars for the
biennium-and seemingly gave un-
limited funds for trips to Washington
and other cities, there is no money
available for health defense. Doctor
Crumbine, who urged the legislators
to provide an adequate serum and an
titoxin fund even at the expense of
other departments, was given COM
paratively niggardly sum. In view of
the emergency situation the health de-
partment head appealed to the COVER
nor today to find some source from
which funds could be secured.

TO DRILL FOR GAS
McCray Petroleum Company to
Set Up Rig Near Here.
Leases Are Signed on Tracts
TOtaling 5000 Acres.

Gas burners in Topeka soon may
have access to a new and local supply
of their favorite fuel.
Announcement is made today of a
contract closed between w. S. McCaslin
and the McCray Petroleum company,
Kansas City, Mo-, for drilling a well
at some point between Topeka and
Pauline. The announcement is to the
effect that a fifteen-inch hole will be
drilled in to a depth of 900 feet, the
approximate depth at which it Is ex-
pected gas will be found. If gas is
not found, the company announces it
will send the bit down to approximate
ly $500 after oil.
Leases already have been closed on
between 5000 and 5000 acres of land
between Topeka and Pauline. ]. w.
Martindale, field representative for the
McCray company, a $10,0O0,000 cor
poration, was in the territory a few
days ago on a tour of investigation.
The announcement was made follow
ing his report to company headquar-
ters in Kansas City.
The rig is to be shipped from Tulsa,
Okla. this week.
Another rig in Shawnee county is

anti-strike conference in Chicago to-
day marked the beginning of the end
in the present menacing railway wage
controversy, high officials of the gov
ernment awaited the outcome with
the same optimism which they have
displayed since plans for the walkout
were announced.
Opinions were expressed privately
that it would be foolhardy for the
brotherhood chiefs to go ahead with
their strike plans in the face Of the
boards flat declaration that there is
no possibility of the consideration of
further wage reductions during the
next few months.
Government Is Ready.
Attention was called to the fact
that the brotherhoods had virtually
accepted the latest wage cut order by
the board and that the impending
walkout was based largely upon the
announced intention of the railroad
heads to demand additional decreases
in rates of pay.
In any eventuality. the government
is prepared to proceed thru the courts
if no other way is presented for pre-
venting a general tieup of essential
transportation. The legal department
determined upon by the United States
district attorneys called here by Attor-
ney General Daugherty. has been
communicated to federal prosecutors
thrUout the country.

NEGRO SHOOTS HIM many ARE IN RACE
Nearly Every State Legion Has
Commander Candidate.
Major Emory Now Out for Re-
election, Say Friends.

Kansas City, oct. 26.-With the ar
rival here today of Maj. John G.
Emery of Grand Rapids. Mich, ma
tional commander of the American
Legion, and statements by Major
Emery's friends that he expected to be
candidate for reelection attention
turned to the political end of the ma
tional legion convention next week.
The situation presented interesting
possibilities because convention lead
ers said it was a foregone conclusion
that there will be several candidates
for the highest office of the organiza-
ton. Early convention arrivals al
ready are discussing possible states
and many names are in the air.
Many F'avorIte Sons.
1t was generally agreed that there
would be a large crop of favorite sons
and equally agreed that few. if any, of
those have a chance. It is believed
that most of the delegation will give
their first ballot or two to their state
candidates and then be released to
vote for the candidates who will COM
mand a national following.
According to word received here one
of the candidates expected to have
delegations. is Col. Milton Foreman of
Chicago
Missouri Wants Headquarters.
John F. Williams, state commander
of the Missouri Legion is one of those
whose names are being mentioned to-
day for he commandership. Roy
Hoffman, national executive commit
teeman from Oklahoma, is another.
Mr.. Hoffman has announced his can
didacy.
1t was stated today by Missouri Le-
RiOn officials that an invitation WOUId
be extended at the convention to bring
the national headquarters to this state
in the event a proposal to transfer the
executive Offices arose
