THE KANSAS CITY GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 30, 1898. HOUSE MEN ARE IN IT. WYANDOTTE'S WHISKY MINE TWO DWELLINGS BURNED. SUICIDE OF A JOINTIST. A Safe I vest ment Among the financial institutions advertising in this number of the Review our readers will note the "International Exploration and Investment with headquarters at Nos.

5, 7, 9 and 11 Broadway. This corporation fills the public's need of safe and accumulative investments, and the names of its directors and incorporators are well known in monetary circles, and are an ample guarantee of its soundness, both in business management and reliability of its officers. Heretofore the investor of a few dollars had to assume all the risks of ordinary speculation, and still could oniy hope for such profits as his limited amount of money could command. Since the International and Investment, Co. has been conducting the management of various investments, things have changed for the man of limited means.

His funds, however small, being combined with those of many others, and being invested under the guardianship of men of standing enterprise, he has the advantages of the best of financiers, and on the co-operative plan his money secures for him the same commanding influence which the capitalist enjoys. The objects of this Company are manifold; in fat its charter covers almost every field of operation. Among these may be named the thorough development of the gold fields of Alaska in their many various ways. It is worthy of note that the-subscrib er to the stock of this institution derives not only the benefit of any and every venture which this Company engages in for -the purpose of money-making, but shares to the full extent also in whatever enormous opportunities Alaska may offer, and In this wise one share of stock of this corporation offers the same benefits which many shares of stock of other organization combine. Instead of being called upon to invest in say six companies, or six shares, in order to attain the advantages of six different financial ventures, a stock holder of the International Exploration, and Investment Co.

reaps all these neflts on ons share in this one coi eo It will he seen that the opp tunities offered are indeed exceptions In short, the object of this Compa is to provide for the investor of a iw dollars the same opportunities hJca a large amount of capital could procure. We have been shown a copy of this Company's prospectus for 1898, which is a very handsome little leaflet, giving all details and particulars as to IU objects and the range of investments it covers. This little book is one well worthy of any one's most careful perusal. It is a good pamphlet to keep and to show to one's friends, as it la full of information and statistics. It is free for the asking, and can be had by writing to the Company's general offices, 5, 7, 9 and 11 Broadway, New York After carefully studying the contents of above prospectus, and after various interviews we have had with the officers of this corporation, we ua.ve come xo tne conclusion tnat tne International Exploration and Investment Co.

offers a perfectly safe system for investment, and to all those of our readers who have money lying idle we cheerfully recommend this concern as one well worthy of their support and consid "tion, being convinced at the same bne that such a method will result a the investor's fullest satisfaction, i.

Judge" Alden of the district court made a decision that that portion of the Cubbison law relating to pool and race tracks is unconstitutional, thus sustaining Judge i'fost of the city court.

The decision of Judge Alden is regarded as so clear a construction of the law as to leave no doubt in the minds of well informed people the Cubbison act is invalid. It was rendered on a motion to quash the information against the seven men who were arrested recently in a raid on the P.ibbs and Oldham place. He sustained the motion and discharged the men on the ground that tue title of the act did not conform to the provisions of the act itself. It is entitled, "'An act to prohibit." whereas the act itself contains a provision under which pools may be sold at race tracks during two weeks' of the fall racing season. Judge Alden declared that prohibit means to say that a tning shall not be done in any case or under any circumstances.

Therefore he concludes that the act is in contravention of ection sixteen, article two. of the state constitution of Kansas, which provides that no bill shall contain more than one subject, which shall, be clearly expressed in the title. "This constitutional provision," Judge Alden says, "is mandatory and cannot be ignored or lightly treated." i As a result Kansas City, Kansas promises to soon develop into a horse town. Shortly after Judge Alden's decision a contract was entered into between Lester Kerr, manager of the Kerr race track, just outside the city limits on the Kansas side, and some local sporting men. whereby the track becomes the property of the latter for the next racing season.

The! lease has been signed, and speedy preparations are being made for spring meeting, to open the latter' part of next month. The meeting is! to be opened with a big whieu will be worth, to the winner, at least $1,000. It is claimed that a St. Louis book maker has leased the track, but it is; generally believed among local sport-: ing men that Thomas Carey, the well known Kansas City bookmaker, andi others will have charge of the meet-! ing. The Carey pool room on Ewing street in Kansas City, will be! opened Monday and will remain open1 until the spring meeting at Kerr's! park convenes.

The Bibbs-Oldham pool room in the Hanson opera house on the Kansas side will also reopen. LIST OF NOMINEES. Candidates Before the People for the Muncilpal Offices.

ANOTHER DHMO-POP ROW. Mr. Doyle Springs Trouble About the City Court vierkship. Another Democratic row develops in the desire and candidacy of Dr. E.

M. Doyle to be clerk of the city court of tthe South side. According to the law which created the two city courts and the deal made the present ineumbents, who were appointed by Governor Leedy, shall hold office until the next general election. Frank Armstrong a member of the Legislature was appointed for the South side. Doyle claims that Armstrong is ille-jgany holding the clerkship and on the last day for the filing of nomination papers he filed a petition witn the city clerk nominating himself.

Armstrong today filed an objection with City Clerk l'eager to the nomination of Dr. E. M. Doyle. He proposes to head Doyle ott by preventing his name from being placed on the official ballot.

In his protest lie will claim 4 that Dr. Doyle is not the nominee of any ponueal party and the office of clerk does not become vacant until tne fal election. Armstrong's protest will be taken up by the mayor and city council at tomorrow night's meeting. It will then be referred to the regular tri bunal created for such purposes, which consists of the mayor, the city clerk and one -member of the city- council, to be selected by a majority vote of the council. Dr.

Doyle states that if he fails to get his name on the official ballot he will unseat Arm' strong. It is thought that while Arm strong cannot hold the positioTTs of representative and clerk of the court legally at the same time, yet they figure that when they get him out of the waj- Governor Leedy, will have the power to name a man to serve out the Unexpired term. 1 REGENTS START A SltfE AT THE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE. Manhattan, March 23. The regents of the Kansas State Agricultural college have made their latest and most astonishing move and have establish ed a book and stationery store in the basement of the main building to be opened July lstv with Prof.

Walters as purchasing agent. Miss Wescott of Boston (a particular friend of Prof. Frank Parsons) has been appointed librarian. The straits of Mackinac were opened yesterday by a southwest gale and today are practically free from ice. The earliest for sixty-three years.

This opens the lakes from Chicago Prospecting" in the Arabia to Cease ITntil Fiill About 312.000 Tilmwrl. I It has ahvavs been understood that in the hold of the Arabia, the lost steamboat, titat there are from 300 to 600 barrels of 42-year-old whisky in the boat's hold. Liquor merchants have offered from $20 to $30 a gallon for the lot, so when the cargo is found it means quite a fortune for the investors. i The syndicate of Holt, men that for the last four months has been trying to raise the cargo, has ceased operations until next fall. Three times the members of the syndicate have sunk a caisson to the boat.

The first time they found a barrel of ham bones, the second a p.e of lumber and the third an old wagon and several cases of hats, boots and shoes, but no whisky. They intend to sink the caisson again in a di.ierent place, but the ground on which the engines are is almost on a level with the surface of the river and they fear the high water which every spring overflows the bottom. The machinery will be removed to Kansas City, Kansas. INEXCUSABLE BLUNDERS. "Mrs.

Pheobe Bartles, widow of Theodore Bartles, a pioneer of Wyandotte county died at eight o'clock last nights. Theodore Bartles was accidentally killed at Iiartlesville, I. a few davs ago." The above apeared in the Kansas City Star of the 3rd, and substantially the same in the Times and the Journal next morning-. The orld and the Gazette were the only daily papers which we saw that had a correct account of rhe affair, notwithstanding the fact that the Star was handed a correct statement before 11 o'clock of the 23d Kansas City Sun. Hi ere are thousands of people in this city who know that Theodore Bartles died in tins city in 1889, and not at Bartlesville a few days ago.

Pheobe Bartles was not his widow, but his mother and his widow Mrs. Melissa Bartles still lives, and has lived for many years at 513 Oakland avenue; that Mrs. Phoebe Bartles was the widow of Joseph A. Bartles who died in this city in 1887. Theodore was accidentally shot at the Union Depot and.

died several months later. The insurance companies refused to pay his life insurance and his heirs took the case into the courts where it dragged along until many became conversant with these facts and don't see how it was possible for all three dailies to blunder five times in the 5 lines, as follows: 1. She was not the widow of Xiieo-dore but of Joseph A. Bartles. 2'.

Mrs. Theodore Bartles still lives at 513 Oakland avenue. 3. Theodore was shot in 1889; not a few days ago. 4.

He was shot at the Union Depot; not in the Indian Territory. 5. Not he, but Joseph A. Bartles was a Wyandotte pioneer, and tried to get those papers to correct these misstatements but thev didn't do it. TAKES A NEW TACK.

McNall Takes a Whack at "Underground" Insurance Writing in Kansas City, Kansas. February 14 of the present year, the Atlas Assurance company oi England, notified the Superintendent of Insurance that it has written policies on property located in Kansas City, Kansas. whereon the premiums amounted to $1,068.45 and added that it held itself in readiness to pay the tax thereon due to this state. McNall paid no attention to the notification and again on February 28 the company addressed the department sending a copy of the former letter and asking for a reply. This time McNall notified the company that the amount of fees due to the state was $100 for transacting business in the' state; the direct tax on the amount of premiums at 2 per cent, amounted to and the amount of the 2 per cent fireman's fund tax due to the fire department of Kansas City, Kansas, was $21.36, making in the aggregate in excess of $140.

In answering this letter the Atlas Assurance said that it was not willing to pay anything for the school fund, annual statement fees, or fireman's fund taxes but it was willing to pay $21.36 as direct taxes. Today McNall called the attention of the Attorney General to this matter and requested that suit be brought to recover this amount due the state from the Atlas Assurance company. Suit will be brought at once. McNaul declared yesterday that the city of Kansas City will immediately bring suit1 against this company to recover the amount of the fireman's fund tax. The law provides that this must be paid within sixty days after the first of the year and fixes the penalty for violation at $300.

ANOTHER IN THE RACE. An Austrian Laborer Will Run Independent in the First Ward. Andrew Wasko, an Austrian, filed a certificate with City Clerk Yeager that he was an independent candidate for Councilman in the First ward. With Wasko in the race, there are now four aspirants. The fight promises to be the most interesting in the history of municipal politics in the First ward.

The Republicans have nominated Peter De Clark, a physician; the Democrats have a regular nominee in the race, Bruce Craddock, made so by action of City Committee, while an Independent Democratic: candidate, Charles Myers, is carrying on an ac-tivefight. Wasko comes from "The is a laborer, and claims he will get the packing house vote to a man. The Austrian will command good support from The however, as this locality is inhabited with people from Austria, who will in all probability support one 'of their nationality. Bruce Craddock. the regular Democratic, nominee, who was declared so bv the Democratic citv cen tral committee, after he had been de feated on the face of the nrimarv re turns, wiL be injured more by Wasko entering the race than anv other can didate.

Myers is making a campaign asuinst the corporations. He is a. German by birth and talks with about as much accent is does his new rival, Wasko of "The Patch." Fire Department Powerless for Lack of Water Loss $2,500, Partly Insured. The homes of John Hinkle and E. A.

Bickford, 202 and 204 South Eighteenth street Were totally destroyed by fire at 10:45 last night. The fire sxa rted from, some, unknown cause in the residence of E. A Bickerford at No. 204 during the ab sence of the family. Being outside of trie city limits there are no water plugs near and the fire department was powerless to stop the spreading of the fire to the building adjoining, which was occupied.

by the family of John Hinkel, a dairyman. The buildings belonged to the Whipple Loan and Trust Company and were fully insured. The loss will amount to $1,000 on each building, and the contents were damaged $500, on which there was no insurance. Most of the furniture in the Hinkle home was saved. ABOUT ASPHALT PAVING.

The Barber Asphalt Company secured the contract for paving several blocks along Kansas avenue, Ar-mourdale, "on Tuesday evening last. A large bond was given to maintain the street without cost to the city for a period of five years. It is the law of New York and Chicago, where maintenance is requireu, to guarantee wonc for fifteen years and to insure this thirty per cent of the total cost is retained by the city. If defects are discovered, the contractor is notified, and if not promptly repaired, the work is done by the city and charged up to the thirty per cent head. Why" would not this be a proper thing for Kansas City, Kansas? DIVINE HEALERS EXEMPT.

Kansas Attorney-General Decides That They Can't Be Prosecuted. Topeka, March 24. Dr. Gill, Secretary of the State Board of Health, is preparing to make war on the "quacks" in Kansas, and he asked for an opinion from the Attorney-General as to whether divine healers, magnetic healers and hj'pnotists could be dealt with as doctors in the enforcement of the law. Assistant Attorney Snelling studied the matter for several hours, and then told Dr.

Gill that he might turn the thumbscrews on hypnotists and magnetic healers, but divine healers would have to be held exempt. In support of his opinion, he said that magnetic healers and hypnotists pretended to have personal healing power, while divine healers declared their power to come from Jehovah. Jehovah, he explained, was in no way amenable to the laws of the State A PIONEER. Mrs. Phoeba A.

Bartles, widow of the late Joseph Bartles, died at the home of her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Melissa Bartles, 513 avenue, at the advanced age of 82 years. She was buried in the cemetery at Quin-daro this afternoon. Mrs. Bartles was one of the pioneers of Wyandotte county, and had lived here for the past forty years.

She came to Kansas with her husband from New Jersey. They came up the Missouri river and landed at Quindaro in June. 1857. During the war her husband took an active part in suppressing the border ruffians that invaded this section of the country at that time. He uied in this city about seventeen years ago.

Her two sons Theodore and Jacob enlisted and fought in the Federal army. Theodore died about nine years ago at the home where mother died. Jacob is now located in Bartlesville, I. T. He arrived in the city from there several days ago.

THE HEIM BUILDING. The Heim Brewing Company has won, after six months' litigation the triangular tract of real estate at Riv-erview junction. The land in question was purchased several months ago by the brewing coompany. At the time a negro family occupied a small house on the lot, and when they were requested to leave the premise's the Heim people met with a flat refusal. Hicks, the negro, claimed to have a lease on the property.

The matter went to the courts to be decided and a decision was rendered against the negro. He. was evicted from the premises and it is now stated that a three storv buildinc -will iu erected. A saloonkeeper in the Fifth 1 -m varu was oenina the proceedings instituted by the negro. MORE TROUBLE FOR ARGENTINE.

Steps to oust 240 Argentine property owners from their realtv possessions ere taken in a $100,000" damage suit brought by the law firms of Anderson Henderson, and Hutchins Keplinger, in the Common Pleas court yesterday afternoon.

Charles Markt Sends a Bullet into His Brain. The body of Markt, proprietor of a joint at Third street and Minnesota avenue, who has been missing from home since Tuesday morning, was found about 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon in the German Hall over Mendenhall's livery stable, at Fourth street and Minnesota avenue.

with a bullet hole through its head and a Smith Wesson revolver lying at his feet. The body was found by Ole Olson, another jointkeeper, who had been looking for Markt since morning, ihen found the body -was sitting in a chair, cold and stiff. He must have shot himself the night before. Tuesday morning Markt Was ordered to go to police ueadquarters and pay his regular monthly fine of $100. He appeared at the" station about 9 o'clock and tendered Captain Porter a check for the amount signed by the J.

D. Her -Brewing company. The captain refused to take the check, and told Markt to get it cashed and return. From all accounts the joint-ist cashed the check and then went home ami told his wife he was going to pay his fine. This was the last seen of him until he was foxind in the 'hall dead.

In his 'pockets were $9. His friends are of tne opinion that he obtained the money on the check and spent it, and in a fit of despondency took his own life. When Olson arrived at the hall yesterday afternoon it was locked from the insirle and the Key was s.till in the door. Markt had been engaged in the joint business in this city for years, and recently moved from 441 Minnesota avenue to the corner of nird sind Minnesota. His ousiness had fallen off considerably and he had to ask the brewery to lend him enough money ot pay his last police court fine.

He screamed once, and sank into semi-consciousness. His brother Jesse, who saw the wheels amputate his legs, rushed frantically to his home, 1916 North Fifth street, a block from the scene of the accident, and told his mother that Lloyd had been run over by the cars and killed.

Mrs. Smtih hastened to her child. The scene was a pitiable one. The injured boy was carried to his home and Drs. Thompson and Todd were summoned, but they could do nothing.

He regained consciousness before he died, but was too weak to talk. 'THE LIGHT OP rrfE WORLD Or Our Saviour in Art" Cost over $100,000 to publlsCi.
