The notion of tho court caused nn exodus amonK the wnltlnc oniceseekers, nnd u short time after the nppolntmcnt was announced the court room was nearly rlepopulnted. Applicants for tho place wore numerous. AmonB them were Charles Gnn7cr, A. J. Donahue, T. 11. Hudspeth, I Orces, K. I Itoe, J. aohnon, A. V. Hendrlckson, D. A. Anthony, J. Treemnn, T. S. McMillan, J. M. Cooper, J. h. Woolf, S. Shumate nnd T. U. Crane. After these nnmes were submitted Juilsc Stono asked If cither of the other Judsres desired to make a motion. They replied "No." Judge Stone then drew from his coat pocket nn order for tho appointment of Mr. Gentry. Judsre Latimer refused to voto, but tho motion pre ailed. Mr. Gentry wns called before the court and wns told of his appointment. Ifo was told that he would bo held responsible for the action of his stewards at the farm and would be responsible to the court. It anv assistant nt tho farm struck an Inmate It would be his duty to report the same to the court and his discharKC would be Im mediately ordered. No cruel treatment of the Inmates would be allowed. T. II. Hudspeth, tho present Incumbent, was Riven to understand that he was to vacate the premises as soon as possible, as tho new appointee wns to tnko chtirpo at once. This was lather sudden for Jlr. Hudspeth, for notwithstanding the appoint ment of a new superintendent he expected to stay on the farm until March. He was taken by surprise nt the Midden order to decamp. Judge Stono stated, however, tli.it Mr. Hudspeth would not be evicted, and a reasonable tlmo wcjuld be allowed for 10 moval. Clerk Crittenden itchitkcil. Another lively round took place at the be ginning of tho session estcrd.iy. It glow out of the' appointment of Colonel Waters as counselor. When the clerk was ordered to read the minutes of the pievlous elaj's. session It was found that the verbal pio tost offered by Judge I.ntlmer on the ap pointment of Colonel Wuteis hud been re duced to writing, and was Incorporated In the minutes of tho court. It raised the Ire of Judge Stone. He turned to tho other members of the court and stated that theio wns n matter In the records which did not rightfully belong there. He inferred to the written protest of Judge Latimer nnd stated that tho protest was never piesent ed to the court in open bcsslon and could not bo rightfully Inscribed upon tho rec ords Judge Latimer Insisted that the record was right, nnd a woidy war took place be tween the judges. Clerk Crittenden was ready with an explanation. Ho said ho had plnced the protest as a part of the proceedings and had counsel In so doing. Judge Stone then m ide a motion that the minutes be corrected by omitting reference to the protest, as made of leeonl, Judrfe Smith ponied oil on the troubled waters by suggesting tli.it the opinion of tho coun seloi bo called for In tho mattei. The question was passed and upon the arrival of the counselor Judge Stone called up tho matter again. Ho put the question before tho counselor by saslng that a pro test against tho action of the comt had been handed to tho clerk without submit ting the same to the court. Judge Stone further stated that he was willing for tho protest to be made a matter of lecord nnd would vote for the same, but he did not want the clerk of the county court to over ride the comt by making matters of iccnid that had not been t-ubmltte-d to the court as n body. The action of the clerk, he said, If allowed to stnnd would permit uny onc to have papers tiled which would stand on the lecords as a decision of the court r d hnve the nppearance of having lecelv thelr sanction. It was a bad pieccdent ni.d ought not to be allowed. Counselor Wateis stated that In his opin ion tho record of the court should show nothing but the llnal determination of the court, The court was bound bv Its record nnd the tiling of papers without the full know ledge of tho court would woik serious Injury to tho county. It was Mr. Crittenden's time to explain nnd ho stated that ho had received counsel on the mattei before taking nny action "I don't attribute any w rong to the clerk," said Mr, Stone. "I move that the article be expunged fiom tho ueords." The mo tion carried. Judge Stono then mndn a motion that the protest from Jurtgo Lati mer be made a matter of record There was a vote In tho alllimattve, Tho matter then stood as a rebuke to the nfllclousness of the county clerk, for ha hi pitched his work out In onu place to wilto It our again in another. I.ltllo Comfort for the nunc Colonel Waters delivered another opinion that caused the crowd in tho court room to draw up close to the bench. It was tho matter of appointment of court house Jan itors. Counselor Waters said: "I am of tho opinion, under section 3IJ2, It, 8. 1SSJ, vou have the supeilntendenco and control of public building of tho coun ty, nnd the solo light to appoint Janitors for tho buildings In which circuit courts and criminal courts are held in Kansas City. I am of the opinion th it the act of 1S93, authorizing' courts In cities having a population of 100,000 or more to appoint such Janitors has no application, and I am supported in that view of tho law by the fact that our circuit judges, who have been eminent laweis, never sttenipted lo exer cise their power, although Kansas City for ten jeais has had u population of more than 100,000" This opinion caused cold chills to chase each other down the backs of the members of tho gang present, for it was expected that Sheriff O'NIell would have charge of the Janitors and tho proteges of the gan,j would be still allowed to feed at the public crib. Colonel Waters was not through, how ever, for he Intimated that there was un other surprise In store in the matter of the application of F, W, Tuttla for the appointment of county surveyor, as pro vided byjaw, Mr. Tuttle's application was filed Wednesday, as told In the Journal, and It was expected that the counselor would hand down his opinion at xstci day's session. Colonel Waters stated to the Judgts thut the matter of Tuttle's ap plication not only Involved the nuestlon of the j-ltfUt of (ho court to appoint, but be J was not jo sure whether or not Jnckon countv had a Minrior nt nil. The matkr wns of such Importance he nsked further time. 'o nlo Mated that ho was not ready with his opinion ns to the right of the court to limit the deputies' nf the mar thai, circuit clerk nnd prosecuting nllor nev.

Hills were presented for Inking down nwnlngs from the rourt house. The bill was pruned down nnd Judge Stone staled tint he Intended to look nfter the matter hlmelf. The court did not take a vote on license Inspector, but granted 270 licenses. A ses sion will bo held ngnln In-day, FRIENDLY TO OUTLAWS, Deputy Miirrlml Adams Tells nf Urn Ob stacles flim rniuent Olllerrs I'm nun. ter In tho liulliiii Tirrltur). Deputy I'nltcd States Marshal Hirry Adiinis, who has been In the Indian Terri tory for tho pist ten l.i)s Investigating the lllttell counterfeiting case, returned to tho city yesterday morning. During the stiy there ho made four arrests and captured ono of the best counterfeiting layouts ever seen In that put of the rountry. The llml Is very valuable and int. ofllceri arc in high glee over the matter. lllttell was arrested with his wife nt Wlnthrop a month ngi by Deputy Adams, nnd was locked up nt St. Joseph. He re fused to return and the rase had to be In vestigated berore Commissioner 1'ollock nnd evidence taken to show tho court heie that there wns cuusc for the removal of the prisoner. Judge 1'hlllps Investigated the case and Issued tho order for tho lmmc dlite release of the wonnn and for the transfer of lllttell. On the way down to the territory lllttell confessed to Ad ims the names of other pirtlcs In the gang, nnd told where the outfit was hidden nnd nil the details of the nrfalr throughout. Act ing on the Information thus secured Ad ims and one of the local deputies went to the place and lmdo the arrests and enpturcil tho moulds nnd outfit. Deputy Ad mis does not entertain n very high opinion of the Indlnn Territory, Ho sijs there are nuny people theio very friendly to the Cook ging and other out law, and that It Is dangerous to bo out spoken against them. The outlaws ride over the country at will, nnd, being well armed and usually a. dozen of them In each gang. It Is not a hard matter for them to get away from olllcei.s sent nfter them. Their friends mo continually on tho alert and furnish them infotimitlon concerning the officers' movements. Deputy Adams thinks tho. bandits' reign could be ended by a posse of determined men going after them and sta)lng after them until they aro overtaken and killed or captured. HUNTER OF CRIMINALS.
