The Bluff Recorder Owaley Has AD Amusing Side--The Central Committes Has the Complete Registration and More -The Mandamus Case Taken to Judge Blover's Court on a Change of Venue.

There was no hearing in Judge Field's court yesterday in the mandamus proceedings brought by the chairmen of the republican congressional, county and city committees to compel H. S. Owsley, recorder of voters, to turn over his poll lists to them to be copied. When the time for the hearing arrived application was made by Recorder Owsley for change of venue. He made affidavit that he had reason to believe and did believe that he could not have a fair and impartial hearing in division No.

1 because of the prejudice of Judge Field. The application was at once granted and the case sent to Judge Henry's court. Boss Schattner is authority for the statement that Judge Henry refused to take the case on the ground that he had already expressed an opinion touching it, but then Schattner is the authority quoted in some quarters for a great many things which may or may not be true. However, the case finally went to Judge Slover's division and was by him set for Tuesday morning at 9:30 o'clock. The various and Judy motions which the republican leaders are now making in response to the pulling of quite as various thick strings excite much amusement among the many who have occasion to be familiar with the motives of the wire pullers.

The application for a writ rests ostensibly upon the ground that the republicans have not a list of the voters and can not procure such a from the recorder of voters. They the date of their primary elections and conventions as a guarantee of good faith, which guarantee is laughed at by those to whom republican leaders have incautiously confided that they really do not intend to hold the primaries or the convention on the day named in the call. The republican city central committee has now and has had under studious examination for months a complete list of not only those who voted at the last election, with addresses and occupation of each voter, but Aiso a complete list of all who did not vote. The list is an alphabetical one and fills Bix volumes which, are sufficiently bulky to indicate how insincere is the application of the republican committee, which is now generally admitted to have been made purely for political effect. From the lists which it now has the committee has compiled the list of 13,000 names which it expressed 8 vehement desire to strike off.

In order that there may be no doubt of the complete accuracy of these lists which are in the custody of republican officers, the subjoined extracts taken from it by a TIMES reporter yesterday are submitted as sufliciently comprehensive: Bishop, John 1101 Br'd'y, cl'k assessor's office; voted Apr. 8, 1890, Cannon, Jas. 1821 voted Apr. 8, 1890. Coffin, G.

0., 1038 Union voted Apr. 3, 1890. Church, 'A. A 1304 grocer, 13 and -Main; voted Apr. 8, 1890.

Craig, Loring 719 Ash or Gladstone R. 203 K. P. voted April 8, 1890. Davenport, J.

Centropolis hotel, mayor K. voted Apr. 8, 1890. Morrison, David 2921 Euclid; voted Apr. 8, 1890.

O'Sullivan, Con, 711 E. 8d, saloon 305 Walnut; voted Apr. 8, 1890. Schattner, 1226 McGee, saloon 5 W. 12; voted Apr.

8, 1890. Thomas, John, 1401 Main; voted Apr. 8, 1890. So the list goes, with the same precision which is set forth in the foregoing extracts. Over 30,000 names are embraced in the lists.

The republican city central committeemen will need to hunt up a fresh set of allegations. NEW ENGLANDERS BANQUET. Forefather's Day Celebrated With Feasting Mirth and Music, The New England society celebrated "Forefather's Day" with a most pleasant banquet at the Coates house last night.

Sir Edwin Arnold did not appear at the Auditorium last evening; that is to say he did not appear on the stage. In company with his manager, Mr. W. S. Angleman, he drove to the Auditorium about 8 o'clock and found everything dark.

A small boy informed his lordship that Sir Edwin Arnold would not be heard at the Auditorium. When asked for a cause the small boy said "financial embarrassment." Sir Edwin took his carriage and went back, to the, Coates house. a matter of fact there was "financial embarsassment" the first night Kansas Cityans within a hair's breadth of not hearing Sir Edwin at all. There was both rhyme and reason in the long delay that made Monday night's audience so impatient, and while the people were fuming at the English lord's tardiness Manager Angleman, who represents Major Pond, was out in the box office debating with M. DuShane Cloward.

The tenor of his remarks was: "No money, no poems." Atlast Sir Edwin himself grew Impatient and told his manager he wouldn't disappoint the audience. The reading, therefore, on according to programme. Yesterday the advance sale was small and the house was closed up last night. Of course Sir Edwin Arnold is not out of pocket. His contract is with Major Pond.

It is Major Pond who loses by the row. His manager said last evening that contract with Mr. Cloward was to deliyer two readings for $1,200 Last night when none of the money was forthcoming he declined to permit the reading to go on until Sir Edwin insisted that he did not wish to disappoint the people. About 9 o'clock it was decided to let the reading go on, Mr. Angleman says, on Mr.

Coward's promise to settle the next morning at Attorney Goldsby's office. 'The two met there and, not coming to any agreement, Mr. Angleman left. Mr. Angleman says he went so far as to offer a liberal compromise, saying that if Mr.

Cloward would pay him $500 before 7 o'clock last evening he would make him a present of the receipts of last night's entertainment, When asked what action he to secure his guarantee he answered that he would await instructions from Major Pond. The Omaha engagement is also under Mr. Coward's management. Mr. Cloward when seen last night said: "There was nothing for me to do but to take the course I have.

The receipts for the first night were not quite $400. To have cleared myself that night I should have taken in $950. My guarantee was $600 per night and my rent was $115 per night, and to that was added a lot of expensive advertising. did not consider my obligations to Mr. Pond should take precedence over my local obligations.

Mr. promised that Sir Edwin should be in Kansas City in time to have interviews Monday's papers. 'The long wait on Monday night, for no fault of mine, was buzzed about so that second evening's business would have been even less than the hrst." Orders were left at the theater for holders of last night's tickets to call at Legg where the money will be refunded. THE subscriptions are pouring in.

TELEPHONE 340 and have THE TIMES sent to your residence daily and Sunday for 15 cents per week, THEY PLAYED A TIE GAME. KANSAS AND MISSOURI FOOT BALL TEAMS WERE EVENLY MATCHED. Hard Fought Contest in Which the Honors Were Easy-The Score Closed 6-6 Washington University Played A Quick, Active Game but Its Center Was WeakChamplin's Brilliant Work -Myer Defeats Carroll of Australia in FortyThree Round Contest by Superior Staying Qualities- J. Case the Noted Horse Owner Passes Away -General Sporting Nows, After twenty-four hours of impatient waiting the football eleven of the Kansas and the Washington universities got together at exposition park yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock.

After an hour and A a half spent in bumping up against each otner, knocking the wind out of each other, exchanging numerous black eyes, the referee's whistle for time found them tied up in a hard knot at the Kansas 25 yard line with the ball in the center. The score at the time was 6 6 and the game a tie. The game was about as hard fought as any Kansas City has seen this! season. The teams seemed to have taken up a grudge against each other. There was a great deal of bandying, and when the umpire and referee were not looking there was many resounding whack that indicated slugging was being indulged in.

As a consequence there were many sore, bodies and bruised faces. Scullen was the only man, however, who was hurt. In the second half he came scrimmage looking severely, faint and weak, and after staggering about for a moment fell limp and breathless, having fainted. He recovered in a few minutes, however, and pluckily played out the game. With the score 8 tie at is difficult to say who got the better of the battle.

The ball. was kept in Kansas territory most of the time and yet Missouri's only goal was the result of a very bad punt by logg, which Scullen stopped and fell on the few yards from the Kansas goal. He was then sent across the line for a touch down Kansas made its touch down by bucking Missouri's center from the center of the field clear to the line and sending Champlin over in a scrimmage. There was plenty of good and plenty of bad playing. If Missouri had had a good rush line it would have won the game without question.

'Twice when a few yards' gain would have scored a touch down Kansas center stood like a stone wall against which the Missouri rushers flung themselves in vain. The Missourians made their gains priacipally. by kicking and downing the man who canght tha ball. In this respect their play was the most brilliant ever seen here. Their end rush, C.

S. Reber, and left tackle, Metcalf, bold records 88 sprinters and yesterday they used their running ability for all it was worth. Time and again when Full Back H. L. Reber punted the ball they were down the field like a flash, and if they didn't get the ball they downed the man who did get it in his tracks.

Every punt was big gain for Missouri. The Missourians excelled in going round the ends, while the Kansans made few gains this way. Champlin and Sherman made two of the most brilliant runs of the game, but in each instance the bail was brought back for an off play, once by Missouri and once by Kansas. One of the pretty features of this, as of all other games in which the Kansas team has played here, was, the brilliant work of Champlin. In bucking the line he surpassed himself.

Whenever a gain was necessary Champlin Was sent against the Missouri center, and he almost always tore a hole in it. In the first half, when Kansas made its touch downs by a series of brilliant rushes beginning at the center of the field, Champlin made the gains and went over the line. Hogg did better work in bucking the tenter than he has ever done before, but he made a number of plays that were very costly and let the ball get away from him twice when he should have dropped upon it. He had but one chance to kick goal. He did that well.

The rush line of Kansas did first class work all through the game, but Platt was particularly noticeable for his all round playbreaking through, blocking and interfering. The team has improved greatly of late. It follows the ball now and doesn't leave a man to his own resources. Yesterday it did more good blocking than it has ever done betore in games played here. The Missouri team had a splendid full back in H.

L. Reber. Scullen did good work as half back. At the ends C. S.

Reber and Clark did effective work, especially the former. The center was pretty weak. Eaton, the quarter back, although very light, was active, quick and an excellent dodger. George Devol was the referee and George Case, who is home for the holidays, was the umpire. Their work was thoroughly fair and impartial.

Missouri won the toss and took the ball. Kansas took the north goal. The teams lined up as follows: K. S. U.

Positions. Washington. Dobson Left C. S. Reber Left Metcalf Left guard Collins Brenneke Jewett.

Right Steedman Right tackle. Platt. Right Clark Kinzie Quarter back Eaton Left half back. Scullen Right half Tuttle Hogg Full L. Reber Missouri started off with 8 wedge and gained four yards.

Scullen was then sent around the left end for a gain of a few yards, and a moment later went through the center for a fifteen yards' gain. Eaton fumbled on the next line up, and Jewett broke through and got the ball. It was lost after two scrimmages by Kinzie's fumble. Missouri next worked a pretty criss-cross, and Eaton went around the left end for a gain of eight yards. H.

L. Reber was sent through the line for another gain of eight yards. Then after a five yards gain by 8 wedge Missouri lost the ball on off side play. Kansas didn't keep the ball long, however, as Clarke broke through Do and got it from Champlin In the first scrimmage. H.

L. Reber punted for forty yards, and Scullen blocked Hogg's punt and fell on the ball within ten yards of the Kansas goal. He was sent across the line for touch down, and H. L. Rebor kicked goal.

The ball was put in play in the center of the field and after Sherman had been downed for a loss of fifteen yards Champlin bucked the line for repeated gains. With the exception of two gains by Hogg the stocky half back carried the ball clear to the line and made a touch down from which Hogg kicked a difficult goal. The half closed without any more scoring. In the last half, the ball was kept in Kansas territory most of the time and when the game closed it, was the twenty yard line. J.

He admitted making A statea ment accusing Colonel Ballou of being interested in robbing Mrs. Barnaby and he declared that it was true.

Since November be had had some communication with the Denver papers. Thomas Flanagan, the hackman who drove doctor the Barnaby house in Providence, testified that he had Driven Dr. Graves to the residence five times. He usually met the doctor a square or more from his (Graves) house. Mr.

Conrad accompanied the doctor to the Barnaby house on the first night. The prosecution then produced a number of letters written by Dr. Graves to Mrs. Barnaby at various times. The handwriting in these letters and the inscription on the bottle of whisky which was sent to Mrs.

Barnaby were compared. James L. Lindsay, an expert in handwriting, swore that it was his belief that the writing in the letters and that in the inscription on the bottle of whisky were identical.

A Chance for Young Talmage. to the Kansas City Times.a JEFFERSON CITY, Dec. division No. 2 of the supreme court today the case of the state vs. James C.

Talmage was reversed and remanded, Judge Thomas dissenting. Talmage, who is a son of the late A. A. Talmage, shot dead Telegraph Operator Charles 'Tedd in Chariton county in 1888 as the result of a quarrel over a trifling matter which developed into a fight in which Talmage WAS outmatched and he claimed the shooting was in self defense to avoid great bodily injury. The case is reversed on the ground that the circuit court did not give instructions for manslaughter in the third degree.

THE SELIGMANS UPHELD. A Case of Much Importance to Business On in ssouri, the Kansas City Times.) JEFFERSON CITY, Dec. years age Wilson obtained a judgment against the Carthage, -Memphis and Northwestern railway company, but failing to find any property served written and personal notice on J. W. Seligman of New York that he would file a motion in the St.

Louis circuit court asking for an execution against them as stockholders of the Carthage, Memphis and Northwestern railway company. The Seligmans did not appear and the general execution Was ordered against them and Wilson levied on and purchased at auction a large number of shares of stock, preferred and common, standing on the stock book of the St. Louis and San Francisco railroad company in the name of J. W. Seligman Co.

He afterward brought suit to compel the company to place his name on the stock books as the owner of the shares. The circuit court of St. Louis refused to enter such a decision. In passing upon the case today the supreme court, by Chief Justice Sherwood, held that service of a motion and notice on a stockholder in New York gave the circuit court of Missouri no right to render a judgment that 'execution should issue against the Seligmans in Missouri, and that such execution was a nullity; that although the names of the Seligmans appeared on the stock books of the St. Louis and San Francisco railroad company, it was competent to show who was the real owners of stock, and that this was done by the evidence in this case; that although Wilson might have had no notice AS to who were the real owner of the stock at the time he had his execution levied on the shares of the stock, standing in the name of the Seligmans, yet as he was notifled at the time he bought at execution sale that the Seligmans were not the owners of the stock but only held it for other parties, this prevented him from acquiring any more interest in the stock than the Seligmans had, even if his execution had been valid instead of worthless.

The decision settles several points never before pssed upon and is of great importance in the commercial ward. Judges Black and Brace concurred in the opinion. AYER'S SARSAPARILLA braces up the system: purifies and invigorates. Invalids need it. AVOTION BALES M.
