A CHANCE FOR WASHBURN. Topeka Football Men Think They Can Beat Kansas This Time 1 burn Defeats Lincoln Medics-Other Games Yesterday. (From a Staff Correspondent.) Xawrence, Oct. 24. Figuring the "dope" from this afternoon's, football performance here, Washburn has some-! thing better than an outside chance to beat K.

It will have the 'better of Washburn's in weight amd in fierce aggressiveness. The Indians could not hold the K.U. attack yesterday. Washburn can hardly hope to do better, although Washburn's line work is being "doped" here from the showing made against Emporia' two weeks ago. No allowance is made for the work Kennedy' has done with his proteges since that time.

Easy for the Indians. Haskell beat K. U. easily. The score of 12 to 6 does not Indicate the real difference in the play of the two teams.

Fallis was not in at quarter for the Indians, and Wheelock, the giant tackle once mentioned for. a place on the All-American eleven, went in out of condition and retired at the end of the first half.

PUBLIC LANDS OF THE YEST Officials Say Fraud Is Tremendous. mUJONS IN THE STEAL Postoffice Scandal a Trifle Compared With Land Grabbing Scheme. 60,175.765 ACRES INVOLVED, A Profit of Twenty Million Has Been Made by Somebody and the Money Divided Up Big Men Are Accused. Washington, p.

Oct. 24. According to the admissions of officials of the De partment of the Interior, which they repeated today, tho Investigation of the public land scandal, now going on la the states of the Pacific coast. Involves the roost tremendous of all government grafts" and cause the "hot air" affair in the Postoffice department to pale Into Insignificance. Persistent inquiry has developed the Information that present Investigation, which has been going on over four months, is entirely independent of the Indian land scandal, and involves meney making transactions to the extent of between S1S.000.000 and $20,000,000 and collusion between organised "grafters" and state and federal authorities In the matter of land allotments In some fifty-four forest reserves, which cover altogether acres of land.

Secretary Ititchcock alone knows the full extent of the frauds now under investigation, and he says thatv he will divulge nothing until the whole inquiry has been completed under his direction. Wild Rumor Afloat, This reticence by the head of the department has made the spread of all sorts of alarming rumors possible. In which the names of men In high publlclacea have already been mentioned here and In the states where the Investigation la going on. Rumors have come from the West tliat five United States Senators have already been reached by the Investigators and are seriously Involved In the scandal. In fact, one story had It that official reports already In the hands, of Secretary Hitchcock had already named then Senators.

The moat positive' denial, however. Is made at the Interior department that any Senators are so far involved. Thomas Ryan, the first assistant secretary, stated today that no such report had been received at the department, and William A. Richards, commissioner of the general land office, made the same statement. Secretary Hitchcock was not at the department this afternoon and it was announced that he was confined to his residence by a slight Illness.

Bg Men Involved. While it Is generally accepted that no United States Senator Is being Involved, it is not denied at the department that some Western Representatives have al con ready been round to he suspiciously con nected with these land scandals, and before the inquiry is finished some railroads and thefr connection with the great forest reserves may receive unpleasant men- tion. The present Investigation on the Padflo slope covers the administration of BInger Herman, former commissioner of the general land office and a new member of the House from Oregon. Five years ago the forent reserves of the United 8tates government embraced only It million acre. The annual report of the commissioner for the year 1302 shows that there mininn -rHi nr0rlalmed durmr Mr.

Herman's term of office. Since this report was road a few more reserves have been added, bringing the present acreage up to about fZ million. The method of the "graft" has been very simple, and in large part consists of advance Information by means of collusion with federal authorities in Washington and the land offices In the states concerned. Profit of 920,000,000. If the Investigation should disclose that Vi million dollars had been made out ot the irregularities it would not mean that the government had lost this sum, but would mean that persons in and out of the government service nsd made this money through collusion and illegal transact ions.

Kansas City, Oct. 24. Bailie Waggener of Atchison, who is being mentioned for the Kansas Democratic gubernatorial nomination, was at the Hotel Baltimore this morning. Mr. Waggener says he is not a candidate for tho place, but that is as far as he goes.

When asked if he would accept the nomination if it was offered him next year he simply says: "That is too far ahead." In the way of Democratic gubernatorial material for Kansas Mr. Waggener sug tWA venworth and ex-Senator W. A. Harris of Linwood. Either, he thinks, would stand an excellent chance of winning.

"Mr. Atwood wants the nomination, I understand," said Mr. Waggener. "He is a strong campaigner and would make a fine.race. Everybody knows the capabilities of Senator Harris.

He would be a yery strong candidate. With a good man for the place the Democrats can win in Kansas next year, especially if the Republicans keep up their factional fight."

This, It Seemed Easy -Work in Breaking Record. TO TROT AGAINST PACER. Dillon's Driver Says She Can Trot as Fast as Any Horse Can Face-Prince Alert Lowers World's Facing Record. Memphis, Oct. 24.

Lou Dllfon, the peerless trotter, owned by C. K. G. Billings of Chicago and driven by Millard Sanders, this afternoon' proved her right to the proud title of queen of the turf by trotting a mile under adverse conditions in the remarkable time of 1:58. The daughter of Sidney Dillon was paced by jx runner driven by Scott McCoy, and another runner followed closely to urge the mare to a supreme effort.

The track, of the Memphis Driving club never showed to better advantage. Sprinklers were employed throughout the day putting on. finishing touches, and when the time for Lou Dillon's trial arrived the course was perfect. A strong wind from the north swept down the long back stretch however, and Judge Newton announced to the spectators that too much should not be expected of the game little trotter. Lou Dillon appeared on the track at 5:10 p.

and after a preliminary canter Sanders announced he was ready for the start. The two runners were aligned in position and It was noticed that a strip of board about one yard wide was fastened to the pacemakers sulky, directly under the neat. This, it was announced was used to keep the dust out of the mare's face. Hade the Runner Hustle. At the first start Sanders nodded for the word, and the flag After going an eighth of a mile Sanders yelled 10 McCoy to drive faster, and It looked as if the mare would catch the runner.

Making the first turn the remarkable work of Lou Dillon could be better seeu by the thousands present and like a piece of perfect machinery she reached the quarter pole In 30 seconds. The turn for tne back stretch was now reached and many expected to see the champion falter because of the wind, but to the surprise of everyone Lou Dillon seemed to travel faster, arid when the half mile was reached the timer's slate clicked out 69. A great cheer arose, and many horsemen predicted that a new record was making. On the far turn McCoy was forced to whip the runner to keep clear of the trotting marvel which was pushing him closely. The three-quarters pole was passed In 1:28 and tho mare had turned for home, The wind was now an advantage rather than a detriment, and with a superb burst of speed Lou Dillon urged on by the shouts of the drivers of the runners, clashed under the wire in 1:58.

All Agreed as to lime. When tho time was flashed to the spectators hats were flung high, into the air and cheer followed cheer. Sanders was literally lifted from his sulky by an ad- miring throng while Mr. Billings was showered with congratulations. It was a noticeable fact that the watches of tho three official timers agreed to the fraction, and many horsemen standing in the Infield caught the time as the officials announced to a fraction.

The timers were Bud Doyle, Fred Hartwell of Chicago and John Dickerson of New York. After the mare- had been blanketed and eont to her barn, Sanders her driver, said: 'I am not a bit surprised at the result of Lou Dillon's effort. I expected to break the world's record despite tho adverse conditions. I desire to say that It is my candid opinion that Lou Dillon can trot as fast as any horse In the world can pace, and next year I will demonstrate this statement. With perfect conditions today I would be afraid to 6ay how fast tho mare would have trotted the mile." Two other world's records were broken this afternoon.
