VANNEMAN. Secy. ABOUT THAT IIIDUEN GOLD. Newt Uridgman Believes the Story bat has Hope of Getting Money. Newt Bridgeman has returned from his trip to Indiana, and being questioned about his search for hidden treasurers in Arkansas he said: "Yes sir.

I have been to Illinois. I would have gone a week sooner than I did, only my mother desired to visit her old horn, and I waited a week for her to get ready. I supposed it is as well, else your very sensational story might have been lost to the public." "What do I know of the story of the hidden treasurer?" "No much; and yet something. In the first place I have known Anderson Griggs for sixteen or seventeen years, and I know him to a quiet, unassuming and reliable fellow. "For ten or twelve years or divers times he has told me of the hidden money.

And I must say that I have implicit confidence In his statements as to burying the money. He has told me the story too often and under so many different circumptances that I do not for a moment doubt but that he hurried it. But in his ability to find it after thirty years I have no confidence. "I have had some correspondence and a personal Interview with some relatives of his master whose money he claimed to have buried. "When I came from Arkansas this spring (having gone there with Colonel Hallowell and Commisioner Webb) Griggs again importuned me to help him get the money.

I told him I would help him to get down there, but he said his wife would not stand it, she thinking. that they 'kill niggers' down there, and she was afraid they would kill -him. But I supposed he had fixed at ur with his wife, as he came to me one day and said he was going Jind asked if I would give him some money to keep his family in groceries. "I said I'll give your wife an order for groceries, which I did. "That's all I know about it.

As to Frank Burt buying eighty acres and my being in the deal, that is all bosh. However, Frank is big enough, old City Chemist, St. Louis Royal Baking Powder excels all others. It is highest in strength, pure, wholesome, free from lime, ammonia and alum. S3S3KS3SS3SSSS3SSSS enough and smart enough to do his own talking.

I would rejoice to hear of Griggs finding it, but I don't believe he will. MAKING A HOOK OF IT. Farmer Tells a Prlend where Ho Deposits His Mouej. "I deposit my. money with the government," said a farmer yesterday in conversation with a friend on the corner of iMain street and Iouglas avenue.

He went on to state that lie paia smill amount for the care of his monoy and that when he wanted the money it was there for him. A reporter for the Eagle heard this remark and never having heard before that the government was running a bank, he went down to the postoflice and related the conversation to Assistant Postmaster Lcke. He was told that'the farmer had said that he deposited his money with the postmaster at Wichita and Mr. Locke emphatically denied the statement. He then explained that these men might buy postoflice orders, and he had susplcloned that some people had done that very thing for the reason that a few orders had leen sold on other offices and were afterwards presented for payment here.

"Only a short time since one man came Into the office and bought thirteen om hundred dollar orders on one office and they had no menus of knowing whether they had been cashed at the office on which they were drawn or not." Mr. Locke showed the reporter blank applications and how the orders were drawn and when a person applied for an order he could not tell whether the party making it intended to hold it or not. The money order department does business to the amount of S55.000 a month Including ome deposits for outside offices and the postmaster has no time to investigate to find out what a man intends to do with a postoflice order. There may be thousands of dollars of these orders held here for all he knows. The commission charged on an order of one hundred dollars Is thirty cents, nnd then the order is good at the oillce for one year if the holder desired to hold it that long.

The money order system was made by the government to facilitate business transactions and there does not seem to 'be much doubt of the fact that the man who buys an order for the pur-lose of making the government kep his money for him, violates the spi-lt of the law. whether he violates th letter or not. The postmaster at "Wichita would perhaps refuse to sell a post-office order if he knew it was being purchased for the purpose of makins: a deposit though he did not say as much. Money used to purchase these orders is sent to Washington and of course is taken from the channels of trade here. When asked what he would do in case a half million dollars were invested in these orders and held here and after a time presented at this oRice for payment Asssistnat Postmaster Locke said: "Why, we could not pay them.

I guors the people holding the orders would just have to set down and wait until we sent to Washington for the money." As the people were coming out of chruch Sunday with their Bibles and prayer books in their hands they saw a man going down Douglas avenue who was very much In evidence that the alleged enforcement of the prohibitory law in Wichita is a farce. The wind turned his umbrella inside out and a bottle of whisky was sticking out of each pocket. He navigated as best he could for some time, but he finally stumbled and before he could recover his eouilebrium he was laid out in the uncleaned gutter where the flies baa- quetted on mm.

The Good Citizens league held its regu lar meeting in the first Presbyterian church last night. There were not to exceed eighty people present.

The meeting was for routine business but there were some pretty lively scenes before the meet ing adjourned. President William Smith called the meeting to order. Hiram Imboden lead in singing America. He called for some one to come to the piano, but there did not seem to be any pianist present If there were they did not volunteer to play. After the singing Rev.

Watson led in prayer and the meeting was ready for business. The prominent men pres ent when the ball was started were Rudolph Hatfield. Billy Smith. Will Dean, Hiram Lewis. A.

E. Helm. Rev. S. Marsh, Dr.

Neeley, J. D. McEwen, D. A. Mitchell.

E. L. McCIure. Rev. Watson.

J. M. Knapp and Ben Black. Mr. McCIure as chairman of the campaign committee reported that they now had the police commissioners and an assistant attorney general and now all the league had to do was to sustain them.

He stated that a letter had been received from the attorney general in which he stated that the law must be enforced. Colonel Lewis said that Mr. McCIure had failed to state that a good many letters had been written In regard to the proposition to start a new dally paper and that an old newspaper man would come here next week to look the field over and they hoped fo be nble to show him that a new paper here will be a profitable Investment. This statement was loudly cheered by Billy Smith. Rodolph Hatfield, J.

D. McEwen and Hiram Imboden by bring Ing the palms of their hands violently together. In referring to some of the committees President Smith mentioned the name of Rev. Black of the South Law rence avenue Christian church when Colonel Lewis wanted to know If he was the man who got sick. This was supposed to refer to a state ment in the Eagle several days ago to the effect that Rev.

Black had become sick of this movement and had written Governor Morrill to retain the old board of police commissioners and it brought Rev. Black to his feet before Colonel Lewis had scarcely asked the question. "In thirty years work" he said "this Is the first time I was ever called upon to explain my actions In a temperance meeting. "This movement started In my church I and It whs on account of a joint at English park. Some men who have become prominent in this movement since It has become popular utterly refused to take any part In it at that time." Then he proceeded to explain the letter that he had written to Governor Morrill and said it was written a (considerable time before the new commission was appointed and not about the time the Eagle had stated.

He held several letters up before the audience In a dramatic way which caused several people to cry out, read it! read it! He proceeded to read the letter In question and It proved to be In answer to one written to him by the governor. In the letter he suggested to the or to give the commissioners a chance as he believed they Intended to execute the law. He also stated that an assistant attorney general oucht to be appointed and he recommended J. E. Brown of Holton for the position.

Ho then explained that he had written the letter In Mr. Jones' office and he indorsed It and he held up the letter to show the letter head of ex-chairman of the board of police commissioners. Colonel Lewis here am5e to state that i at the time Brother Black wrote that I letter he too had confidence that the om ooara mtenuea to execute me law but that after thfy hesitated and began to wink and blink around he lost con fidence. Colonel Lewis said he did not think any the less of Brother Black when he read that article In the Eagle and Hi ram Imboden added "No, nor anybody else. This endorsement brought Rev.

Black to his feet again. He stated that he did not vote for Governor Morrill and he thought he would vate against him for a second term but If he stuck to his present position he would not only vote for him but he would work for him Mr. McCIure then got the floor and stated that there had been some debts incurred In this movement which would require $100 to pay thm, and he suggested that a committe be appointed to raise the money. Messrs. Knapp, McCIure and Imboden were named as euch committee.

Brother Knapp explained that the law could not enforced in Leavenworth because there wre only 1.TO0 people In that city belonging to Pro-testent churches, while Wichita but little larger, had 7,000 Protestant? Brother Hiram Lwla added that Leavenworth ought to be annexed to Missouri and the suggestion was cheered Mr. Knapp moved that a vote of thanks be tendered to Governor Morrill and Attorney General Dawn's on account of the position In favor of the enforcement of law In Wichita, and that the same be published In the papr. The motion was adopted by a rising vote Mr. Hatfield suggested that a committee ought to be appointed to confer with the commissioners and awist them. WHI Dean endorsed the Idea and said since they had commenced they ought to make a clean sweep of It Mr.

McCIure shut this suggestion fl by stating that a letter had been from a secet organization whlh proposed to furnish the evidence to convict the Joints.
