Ijons, the present conservative incum
bent, for the nomination for United
States senator. Democrats expect this
factional bitterness to cut both ways.
They expect the "reformers," who are
followers of La Follette, to scratoh
Taft and the congressional nominees as
a rebuke to the United States senate
and Cannonlsm. They expect the1 "con
servative" Republicans to scratch
Stubbs and tha Republican nominees for

Guarantee of Deposits.
Guaranty of deposits In banks la
proposition which haa been before tha
people or Kansas ror a numner or years,
It was defeated bv a Populist legisla
ture about 16 veara ago. It haa been
defeated by two regular and one special
eesslon of Republican legislatures. The
Republican state platform declares un
equivocally ror a guaranty aepoau law,
rs does the Democratic platform. The
Republlcana claim that the queatlon Is
therefore not an issue In tha campaign,
hut tha fnllnr. ett the Renublican na
tional convention to Indorse the plan,
the prominence given the question by
Mr. Bryan, and the utterances of Mr.
Taft against it have forced the question
to the front in tha Kansas campaign.
The sentiment of a great majority of
both Republicans ana Democrats is ror
such a law.
Briefly Summarized, the Democrats
count on dissatisfied "radical" Repub
llcans to give the state to Bryan, and
dissatisfied "conservative" Republicans
to give tha state to Botkln, while tha
exploiting of the guaranty of banks
deposits as a state issue is expected
to contribute materially to the election
of a Democratic legislature and the
resulting defeat of J. L. Brlstow for
the United States senate by Hugh P.
Farrelly. Democrat.
Republlcana are making their state
campaign on the record or the party In
executive and legislative matters dur
ing the past four years. There has
been marked Improvement of state in
stitutions, and in the 'methods of levy
ing and handling state funds. The
Republican legislature has, In spite of
a conservative" senate, placed an un
usual amount of good legislation on the
statute books. .
On national Issues the Republicans
plead for the election of Taft on tha
ground that his election means a con
tinuation of the Roosevelt policies, and
that It would be unwise and dangerous
to place the government In the hands
of a discredited, theorist In whom they
claim the business world lacks con
fidence. Throughout the month of September
the Bryan sentiment seemed to be gain-,
lng steadily in Kansas. Tha Demo-1
oratlo leadera felt aura that Bryan's
popularity would be the dominant fac
tor In tha campatgn, and would sweep
tha whole Democratic ticket into of
fice. The attack on Mr. Bryan by Mr.
Hearst, the Haskell affair, and the
Roosevelt letters have had Injurious ef-
Brvan. These were follower
Taft's speaking trip through
se were followed
facts on Bryan
by Mr. Taft's
Kansas, In which lie was greeted by
unparalleled crowds at every stopping
place. These occurances have helped
the Republican prospecta materially in
Kansas.
Promises Gain.
Thara promises to ba a gain In tha
Democratic vote, both for the state and
national tickets. In the larger cities.
This is due to tha efforts which have
been made to turn Into the Democratic
column tha union labor vote, which Is
largely In the cities, and to the work
oi tha Railway Protective association,
an organization of railway employes
supposed to ba fostered by railway of
ficials, which In Kansas Is chleriy op
posing the. election of Stubbs and Brls
tow. Kansas, however, is an agriclu-
tural state, and the rural communities
dominate the elections. Indications are
that outside the cities, the Republican
ticket will poll about Its normal vote.
It has been generally believed by Re
publicans that Stubba will run sllght
y ahead of Taft.
Indications are that there will be
Democratic gains In the state legisla
ture. Tha fight promises to center
considerably In the control of the legis
lature. Republican control of the leg
islature means the election of Brlstow
to the United States senate. Democratic
control means the election of Farrelly.
Eighty-three votes in the legislature
constitutes a majority. At the 1907 ses
slon the Democrats had a total of 83
votes In house and senate. To control
the 1909 session, they must make a gain
of 60 votes. Many strong Democratic
candidates for the legislature have been
nominated by the Democrats, and it is
likely that liepurjilcan friends of Ches-
er l. Long will aid' in the election
soma of these Democratic candi
dates.
Even with this assistance, however. It
Is unlikely that the Democrats can cap
ture the additional members of the leg
islature. Should the Democrats have
enough strength to elect a majority of
the members of the legislature, it would
mean a Democratic! landslide in Kansas,
which would carrv down with it Taft.
Stubbs and the whole Republican ticket

There ara st present no Indications
surncientiy strong to warrant tne pre
diction of a political reversal of such
magnitude,

Miss Kate Wilson Shown to Have Been Agent Who Ex
Banker Sent Out to Obtain Collateral on
Dummy Loans.
(Hearst News by Longest Leased Wire.)
New Tork, Oct 17. Kate Wilson.
Stenographer, and some private cor-
: respondence flgurea coisplcuously to-
day In the trial of Alfred H. Curtis,
former president of the National-Bank
of North America, and Charles W.
Horse, the former trust head, both of
whom ara accused of frauds against
the bank..
-Miss Wilson was shown to-be the
gent Morse had sent to the bank to
- obtain collateral . he had put , up for
dummy loans whenever he needed It
for stock gambling purposes.
The correspondence showed that Cur
. tis and the directors of the bank rec
ognized Morse as the absolute ruler cf
tne Institution, and that In their eager
- ness to please and obey him they prid
ed themselves on having disregarded
J promises made to each other and reso
utions of the board of directors,
lsuring the day it leaked out that th
government haa found In the bank
various notes which figured In the
books of the bank as "Morse notes."
Soma of these, it is said, bear the sig
nature of Captain James Morse, "Uncle
Jim ' of Abe Hummel trial fame.
Soma Uncle Jim Money,
They show advances to "Uncle Jim,"
It is alleged, that correspond In a singu
lar manner with the sums tha captain
testified he. paid Hummel In connection
with the Morse-Dodge divorce suit, but
which he swore he had not received
from his nephew, "Charley."
Adoiph Kado, formerly head of the
loan department of the bank, was the
only witness of the day. His testimony
brourht out the fact that the trained
clerk a in the bank soon became sus
pl iius of the manner in which loans
wra being manipulated. Indeed, so
much was this the case that Rado, to
protect himself, penciled tha words, "By
order ot A. H. C," against any loan
made at the direction of Mr. Curtis, the
president
In respect to the Juggling of the col
lateral put up by Mors to secure the
loan made to dummies, and the with
drawal of parts of it, Rado testified
that at last he became so anx
ious that be suggested to Mr. Curtis
tkat soma authority be given for the
dun in lea to him. Kado, as loan clerk.

Clark for Saa
Acewrdlnsrly ha wrote a letter pur-
oi" 40 points. He told me to go ahead
and obey orders."
Rado recalled one Instance, Just be
fore October 1. 1907, when he had
lunched with Messrs. Morse and Curtis
and at the time had mildly protested to
them against the loans. Among other
things he observed directly to Mr.
Morse that "the ice stock in question
belongs really to the bank."
Ice Stock Zapt Busy.
It came out that the 2.000 shares of
ice Stock were kept busy working over
time Thev were repeatedly being with
drawn from the bank and put back In
other loans.
"Arthur Braun, Mr. Morses secre
tary, came and carried away the 2.000
ice StOCK on one occaaiuii, invwiw
Rado. "On another occasion 600 shares
nf Conner, and at atlll another 900
shares of . the same stock, were with
drawn by Miss Katie Wilson and car
ried away." . . .
So far aa Rado knew, tfcese lots were
never returned.
Rado narrated several Instances where
collateral stocks had been withdrawn.
On one occasion, in January. 1906, he
b.ih Drrnin came in and wanted a cer
tain num her of "ice" shares. There
had already been "Ice" withdrawn from
the Whiting loans and as there was
not enough ice on nana Mr. morse
stepped forward with a suggestion that
there was still Ice stock In collateral
orf the Wesley M. Osier loan.
Rado told Morse that the Osier stock
was Indorsed in tnat genueman s name,
as was also the loan itself, and he could
nnr therefore, srlve him that stock.
Thereupon Morse and Braun withdrew
all that remained oi tne ice Bupyvrwns
the Whiting loan and took it away. - -

At that Juncture Mrs. Curtis stepped
forward and whispered something to
her husband's attorney and pointed to
some entry on the loan sheet In the at
torney's hand, concerning which Rado
was testifying. It Is said that Mra
Curtis has famlllarlred herself with the
case in all Its compleilties. and has ad
vised with her husband constantly In
the preparation of his defense.
At thia point it waa shown that eome
of the Whiting dummy loans had been

Seattle, Wash.. Oct. 17. (Special) It
has been decided that Hon. S. G. Cos
grove, Republican candidate for gov
ernor of Washington, will not take an
active personal part In the present cam
paign. Mr. Cosgrove entered upon his
contest for the governorship nearly two
years ago, since which time he has
carried on an active, energetic cam
patgn, visiting every section of the
state and talking personally with thous
ands of voters. Chairman Ellis De
Bruier of the Republican state central
committee today gave out for publi
cation the following letter which he
received thla week from Mr. Cosgrove:
