President Indicates His Atti-
-

Recognize China, Mexico and
Philippines Under Condition.
MEXICO MUST SETTLE DOWN
"Elections and Good Solid Got
ernment Qualifications.
Investigation of Philippines Be
fore Her Independence.
Washington, April President Wil
son lias Indicated Informally what his
attitude would be toward Mexico,
China and the Philippines.
' Pending a settlement of affairs In
Mexico, the holding of elections and
the establishment" of a stable govern
ment, recognition probably will be
withheld.
The Chinese republic is to be recog
nized next Tuesday, April 8, the meet
ing day of the new assembly. Notice
of this intention has been given to the
diplomats of all foreign governments
represented here, with a formal pro
posal that the other governments crant
.recognition at the same time.
With respect to the Philippines, the
president Intends to see that the pledge
of the Democratic party for the ulti
mate independence of the Philippines
Is carried out, but he believes the date
for the granting of independence is a
debatable question and depends upon
a thorough and non-partisan Investi
gation of conditions on the islands.
The president said that the negotia
tions which Secretary Bryan began
with the diplomatic corps In regard to
China had not matured but that an
announcement could be expected short
ly. Intimations had been received here
earlier that some of the foreign gov
ernments were disposed to await until
an election was held In China and the
processes of constitutional government
established.
The United States, however, has de
cided upon recognition and its diplo
matic energies are now bent In, the di
rection of persuading the other powers
to do the same on Tuesday.

Young Members of Party Want
New Set of Leaders.
The first real plan to eliminate from
leadership the trouble breeders In both
factions of the Republican party In
Kansas, was launched Thursday night
at. a meeting of young 'Republicans of
Shawnee county,, who met at the Na
tional hotel to discuss plans for a get
together movement among the younger
members of the party. A definite pro
gram for the future was outlined and
at a second meeting to be held some
time next week, the plan for a county
organization will be completed.
There was much discussion and con
siderable enthusiasm among the young
members of the party who attended the
meeting. But one plan for getting to
gether was discussed. That was the
decision of the younger members of the
two political factions to abandon the
self-elected leaders wnose ambitions for
office and political spoil had almost
resulted in the wrecking of the party.

, Progressive wings of the party attend-
surrender the leaders in his own ranks
for the sake of harmony. If the oppo
sition would do the same. Not only
that, but In.. the hopes of a reunited
party in 1914, the members promised to
urge the cause among their friends
and to advocate a new deal in Kan
sas politics with new cards and new
dealers.
'Ernest Tucker presided as) tem
porary chairman of the meeting. For
two hours the men who attended the
meeting discussed the new plan of re
storing harmony in the party. They
agreed that harmony among Kansas
Republicans was an idle dream so long
as the chieftains of the two factions
insisted on dictating the peace pact
and terms of compromise which would
keep themselves In office. Tet, It was
argued, there was ample opportunity
for harmony If the more objectionable
leaders of both factions could be In
duced by Invitation or otherwise to ac
cept .a commission as private in the
party ranks. a
Following this discussion of plans
for a .new brand of harmony, the
young Republicans at the meeting
adopted a resolution calling for the
appointment by the chairman of a
committee -of two members one
Regular and one Progressive whp
should themselves select a third
member to assist in drafting a declar
ation of principles to be offered at a
future meeting. This committee was
not named at last night's meeting, but
will probably be announced In a few
days.
As soon as the Shawnee county organ
ization is completed, an effort will re
made to Interest the young Republicans
and Progressives in other counties In a
harmony movement. Already the plan
has taken root in other counties and sev
eral county organizations in other por
tions of the state are planned as a result
of the work started in Topeka.
DRAINAGE PLANS
National Congress Will Con
sider Flood Preyentiyes.
Must Build Channels for Na
ture's Reservoirs.
Chicago, April 4. Members of the
executive committee of the National
Drainage Congress which will meet
in annual convention at St. Louis April
10, were busy today drafting a bill to
be presented to the convention calling
on the national government to create
a commission which shall not only
provide plans for the draining of
swamp lands but provide against dis
astrous floods such as recently devas
tated parts of Ohio and Indiana.
Edmund T. Hopkins, chairman of
the executive committee, asserted to
day the problem could be solved.
"In developing our country," he
said, "we have blindly proceeded upon
the supposition that we could turn
dwamps, marshes and forests nature's
reservoirs Into, farms, towns and cit
ies without considering what disposi
tion to make of surplus flood waters
that under natural conditions are re
tained by them. ' We must provide ar
tificial reservoirs to replace the marsh
and swamp and adequate channels to
act as drains."
A Good Word for Everyone.
An American judge,-who had the
reputation of never saying an ill
word of anyone, was once tacKiea Dy
a lawyer friend, who hoped to get him
to admit wrong in somebody. He
tried every conceivable subject in
vain, and then, coming to a notorious
ly troublesome character, he inquired:
By the way, judge, wnat do you
think of this man Blank, anyhow?"
The judge considered a moment. "I
think he has the finest whiskers I
ever saw grown in Missouri," he final
ly declared, with so much animation
that his interrogator was utterly baf
fled. Evening Standard and St.
James Gazette.
Candidates for Drainage Board.
There are nine candidates In the
field for the five offices of directors
of the North Shunganunga drainage
district, for which an election will be
held next Friday, April 11. The can
didates were named at a caucus of the
property owners in the district, and
have been certifed to County Clerk
Oscar Swayze. The candidates are C.

of .2 feet since Thursday morning. -
"The Mississippi river south of Cairo
continues to rise slowly."
Shawneetown. 111., April 4. With the
work of preventing further flood dam
age practically abandoned, Shawnee
town has turned itself toward seeking
relief for the thousand refugees camp
ed in canvas colonies behind the town,
or scattered among country friends In
the hills. Provisions have been run
ning short since the town has been
cutoff from the outside world and the
situation is very grave.
Expected relief from state and other
sources had not arrived, despite re
peated' appeals. When Captain W. K.
Naylor, representing the United Stater
army, arrived on a relief steamer and
learned of the threatened famine, . he
immediately headed back up stream in
quest of supplies.
Captain Lang, representing Governor
Dunne, had already gone up stream on
a similar mission. He started for
Mount Vernon. Ind., to see if the citi
zens could not be Induced to come to
the aid of the stricken people of Shaw
neetown. Word has been received that
the government ordered sent here ra
tions from Louisville, but nothing of
the supplies have been seen.
Unless provisions are received . to
night, many refugees will suffer ex
tremely. Their plight today was made
worse by persistent showers that
drenched their tents and rendered total
ly inadequate the few household ar
ticles they had brought from Shaw
neetown. The river continued to rise and by
nightfall was near the 69.5 mark,, three
feet and one Inch over the high water
mark of the 1884 flood, when 30 persons
were drowned by the snapping of the
levee.
Most of the downtown stone and
brick buildings are standing but hard
ly a frame structure in town escaped
damage.
With the river still rising, fear Is
held that a suddenly formed current
will sweep through an unexpected di
rection and complete the work of de
vastation. Ohio Has Gone Mad.-,
The Ohio river this morning was a
river gone mad. A 25 or 30 mile gale
sweeping straight upstream, cnurnea
the water in swells and billows that
approached ocean proportions. Most
small crafts kept behind the levees,
but a 15-foot motor boat that breasted
the ten miles of rolling foaming water
from Dekoven, Ky, was tossed about
like a rubber ball.
None can tell what part of three
and a quarter miles of levee stands, as
all Is under a foot or two of water. It
is known that great sections went out
before the water climbed over the
breastworks. The Ohio sweeps through
the great gap In the northern levee,
with tremendous velocity. It la not
impossible the river will form a new
channel straight through the town.
Scattering reports of great destruc
tion and suffering caused by high
waters -in neighboring towns are re
ceived here. At Uniontown, Ky., ten
miles up the river fifteen hundred perr
sons are quartered at the fair grounds,
many of them glad to obtain accom
modations in the horse sheds.
Caseyvtlle, Ky., three miles south,
was wiped off the map. Two hundred
people fled to the hills.
Dekoven, Ky., ten miles south, arid
normally two miles and . a half from
the river, is marooned, except for boat
communication. Railroad traffic is
impossible, except for a. few miles
each way.
Flood waters In the Ohio began to
rise again today. At 7 a. m, the gauge
reading was 54.7. The water had. pre
viously hovered about the 54.6 mark
for nearly 12 hours, despite the fact
that a steady rain fell during . most
of the night. A medium wind from the
south was considered a deterrent to
the current.
Reports from the Reelfoot levee dis
trict said more than 2,000 men were
working to save a break in the levees
in this section which Is well down the
Mississippi. A break there would
bring relief to the situation here within
an hour.
The weather early today was chilly
and the wind had switched to the
north. Considered from every stand
point, conditions were held out as
hopeful for at least another week.
Issne Bonds for Aid.

Governor, Cox and members of the
Ohio flood rlliet commission, accom
panied by-General John C. Speaks and
his military staff, last night returned
to Dayton from Hamilton, where they
had Investigated the flood situation.
Today they go to Columbus, Zanes
ville and other Ohio river points.
Practically- all' of the members of
the commission were agreed with Gov
ernor Cox in the plan of state aid for
the rehabilitation of the points in the
state.
The plans call for the enactment of
a law by which municipalities and oth
er political subdiviisons would be able
to Issue bonds immediately without
submitting the bond issues to a popu
lar vote.
Governor Makes Flood Estimates.
Springfield. 111., April 4. With all
reports received by the governor
within the past 24 hours increasing
the total of the homeless residents of
southern Illinois, who have been
driven from their homes by the floods
and the certainty that the state will
be called upon to care for at least
10,000 refugees,oGovernor Dunne has
issued a statement suggesting that
charitably Inclined people turn their
attention to their own state, many citi
zens of which need assistance.
The Chicago Association of Com
merce, which, through, its secretary.
offered "any kind of assistance" a few
days ago, has written Governor Dunne
that the $300,000 collected for the
Ohio flood sufferers must be expend
ed in that state. The letter said, how
ever, that members of the association
will use their Influence with the legis
lature to secure the passage of an ap
priation bill pj, meet the situation in
mis state. , - ;- .
Illinois now has a "total of 1.675
tents housing victims of the flood in
various parts of the state.
KAWS T0 K. C.
They Are Playing the Blues
There Today.
Blues Here Saturday and Sun
day Pirates Jfext Week.
Ducky Holmes "double crossed"
Dale Gear of the Kaws yesterday by
cancelling the game at Tulsa and tak
ing on the Pittsburg Pirates. The
Kaws had bought their tickets for
Tulsa and were ready to get on the
train when Gear got a telephone call
from Holmes which informed him that
he had cancelled the game. Gear and
his team passed through Topeka' on
their way to Kansas last night, where
they will play the Blues this after
noon. Gear dropped a number of players
in Topeka when the team passed
through here and took just those that
will be needed in today's game.
Among those who were left here are
Snapp, an infielder, and Pitchers Rey
nolds, McGehee, Fullerton and Mc
Colloch. Pep Hornsby, Rustenhaven,
Cochreham and Cochran will be used
In today's game In their respective
order. Lee and Peebles reported yes
terday and worked out at the park
during the afternoon. These two
men and the men who were dropped
off here all claim to be in good condi
tion. Boss Carr and the first division of
the Kansas City, Blues will come to
Topeka tomorrow, morning for a stay
of two days. They will play Saturday
and Sunday. The games will be called
at 3 o'clock.
Fred Clark and his Pittsburg Pi
rates will come to Topeka for a game
Monday and Tuesday. The fans will
have a chance to see a number of the
diamond stars in action. Among these
will be Honus Wagner, Marty O'Toole.
Claud Hendrix, Joe Kelley, the noted
backstop, and a number of others.
Bobby Byrne, the regular third base
man, has not recovered from Injuries
received when Joe Wood hit him in
the head with a pitched ball.
Gear will put his full strength on
the field for these games. He believes
his team will defeat the Kansas City
Blues for the reason that the Kaws
have been training in the south while
the Blues have been training at home.
The Kaws, who are in Topeka, will
work out on the local lot this after
noon. . Funston In Charge of Hawaii.

Wall St., New York, April 4. STOCK S
Stocks were in keen demand when trading
began today and large blocks of the fav
orite issues were marketed at rising
prices. Increase of i-.e rubber dividend
after the close yesterday sent that stock
up with a rush. The first transaction was
2,000 shares at 69 to 69, a maximum gain
of 4.
Reading, Canadian Pacific, Beet Sugar,
Can., Smelting, Biscuit, General Electric
and Bethlehem Steel gained 1 to 2 points.
Stocks came out In abundant supply on
the rise, the sales in the first thirty min
utes reaching 165,000 shares. Advances in
the more active issues were cancelled
with the general selling accenuated by a
2 point decline in Chesapeake and Ohio
to 69. Toward 11 o'clock the list stiffen
ed somewhat.
Wall St., New York, April 4. STOCKS
The sudden upward movement of stocks
late yesterday was' continued through the
forenoon today; sentiment was more
cheerful over such favorable underlying
influences as the world wide relaxation
of monetary strain, the large general
movement of trade and the technical mar
ket conditions produced by excessive short
selling. Speculative cliques took advan
tage of "these considerations to advance
prices effectively. Gains of between 1 and
