In case the evidence taken In the bankruptcy case In the United States district court is sufficient to justify the bringing of a criminal proceedings, action might be taken against Bidders by some person making complaint to the county attorney of Shawnee county or the United States district attorney. The, county attorney has received no Intimation that any criminal action against Badders Is contemplated. Several attorneys who have watched the case closely, believe that the Bidders bankruptcy cases will be as long drawn out litigation as any similar case ever brought In the local courts.

MARSHALL CO. PIONEER DEAD. Special to The Capital. Frankfort, March 7. Joseph Miller, senior, resident of this locality for over forty years, died suddenly at his home here yesterday morning.

He had been living alone for the past few weeks and was found dead near the bed. He had been ill with the grip for several days, but had not been confined to his bed. He was born In Switzerland over eighty-four years ago, coming to America when 15 years and finally locating near Frankfort In the early seventies. He is survived by two sons, who live near his home.

M. SATURDAY'S WEATHER WILL CONTINUE TODAY It was cool and cloudy yesterday. The maximum was 86' and the minimum 27, making the average degrees below normal. There were occasional snow flurries during the day. Today, weather conditions are expected to be much the same.

A steady wind from the northwest made the day seem even colder than it was. The Kansas river has risen above the six-foot stage. CLARK SPENDS BIRTHDAY DEFENDING HIS PARTY Washington, March 7. Speaker Clark signalized his sixty-fourth birthday anniversary today by denouncing from the rostrum of the house, an address by Charles Zueblin, of Winchester, former professor of sociology in the University of Chicago, assailing the speaker's counting of votes on the report of the committee that investigated the Mullhall lobby charges. Democrats, Republicans and Progressives cheered and paid tribute to the speaker when he had finished.

FIRE CAUSES SLIGHT DAMAGE. Fire was discovered at 12:53 o'clock this morning in the basement of a two-story brick building at 1016 Euclid avenue, occupied by the Euclid Mercantile store. The blaze started in the basement, presumably from gasoline that had seeped into the building from a private garage on the west. The damage was small. The building is owned by S.

S. Ott. W. Just CHAFFEE New AT THE IN THE 21 were considered possible champions Baker and the College of Emporia. Both started strongly.

Baker had lost but one game when they met the Ichabods the second time. They had lost to Southwestern, and the defeat from the Ichabods made two on the debit side. Then Zabel left to join the Chicago Cubs and the Methodists went tseadily down, losing to Bethany at first and tother teams in succession. The 'College of Emporia looked good with "Twist" Granger as coach, but but they finally showed with a two man team, Russell, the all-state quarter, and Altman, guard. Two games wree lost to Washburn, one to Baker and one to the Normal, and one to Fairmont.

The other teams in the Conference had early lost all claims to title honors. TWICE BEAT SECOND VALLEY TEAM. The Blue's record shows two victories over the Aggies, who claim the second place in the Missouri Valley Conference. The Normal and the College of Emporia each suffered defeat twice. Kansas Wesleyan from Salina was beaten with a good lead.

Southwestern was swamped in the first game of the season. Not a single man was put out of the game for Washburn on account of fouls. There are technical fouls and personal fouls in basketball, arid it only takes four personals to put a man out of the game. Fifty-eight of the Blue's 388 points were made on free throws, fifty-four of them by D. Ream, three by Washburn and one by Chaney.

In goals from the field D. Ream threw seventy, scoring 140 points; Washburning forty-three goals; Trobert twenty-four; M. Ream five; Chaney four; Myers seven, and Beals two goals. GOOD PLAYERS FOR NEXT YEAR. All but two, M.

Ream and Chaney, of the basketball team are football layers. Every one of the team will back to play next year with the exception of Chaney at center. Myers has proved a good substitute, with more pep in the game but lacking the veteran's experience. Chaney has played the full number of years. TRANSFER ARSON SUSPECT TO PREVENT MQB'JUSTICE Ashland, March 7.

Joe Le-gendre, suspected of having set the fire which cost the lives of four persons, was rushed out of Saxon by officers yesterday and placed in Jail at Huerley to prevent his being lynched by the townspeople of Saxon, according to word received here today.

Trobert, Washburn, center. Frankenberger. Normal, guard. Altman, Emporia, guard. The selection of the All-Kansas basketball teams for the 1914 season presents difficulties because of the large number of strong guards in the Kansas college conference, aJid a dearth of strong centers and forwards.

The first and second teanis above have been chosen on the advice of a number of prominent coaches, officials, players and newspaper men. The selections have been made with a view towards securing a well-balanced team, having the best players in the state that collectively and individually would be the superiors of any other team or players in the conference. UNANIMOUS IFOR WIGHT REAM. The one certain berth on the first team was given Dwight Ream, the Washburn caption. His work all season has been of a brilliant nature, and he has been the player around whom Coach Glenn Vxray oi asnuui uuiu a.

EKtia uuaiu- team. ine puoi ui me nnc elders, he has been given the captaincy for his direction on the iloor. His partner, Oassidy, found strong competition for his position. The strength of Fairmount's record this season and Cassidy's strong work with the baskets made him the most likely candidate. Centers were scarce this year.

Ziegler of Southwestern was the only man who qualified for the all-state position In any way. He started the season a little late but soon found himself with the leaders. At guards, Allderdice and Ream were forced to work for their -jobs. Allderdice took his easier than Ream. has been liaker's star since the season commenced.

He was fast on the floor and showed good headwork. His partner, Zabel, would have been in strong competition for the other position if he had not been forced to leave the team to train with the Chicago Cubs. With Zabel out, Merrill Ream was the most likely candidate. An experienced man, he wa3 nevertheless was handicapped by his lack of weight. He was poor on the baskets, but invariably held his forward to a minimum field goal.

'In the state team he would stay by the basket, leaving Allderdice to guard the floor. THE SECO.XD FIVE. The forwards with the second team are Russell and Washburn. Both were strong goal shooters and fast on the floor, though falling down in a lack of consistency. Russell, the all-state quarter, was made captain of the team.

No centers in the conference showed enough form to take it away from Trobert, who was shifted from guard. His good form in taking goals and his work on the floor would seem to qualify him more for that position than for his regular place at guard. The guards, Franken-bergfr of the Normal and Altman of Emporia, were the two best players on their teams, except for Russell. The Normal team lacked good individuals this year but Frankenberger was their best. Altman was the only strong man besides Russell on the Emporia team.

Other players who very nearly forced berths for themselves on one of the two teams would inciude Roy Boyer, the (omo-back. artist on Salina Wesleyan-Jaury, guird. and Wright, forward, of 31a ker; and White, of the State Normal. Zabel was only kept out of a job by his leaving the game so long before the close. His size helped him greatly, though on a large floor he was a trifle slow.

The Aggie team. If they had remained in the conference, would have furnished pome strong material. Todd, of Emporia, was just about the equal of Russell, but lacked some of Russell's headwork. QUILLEN BECOMES LINK BY SIGNING HIS CONTRACT Lincoln, March 7. Lee Quillin, for the past three years third baseman for the Denver Western league team, was today sold to the Lincoln Western league club and signed his contract to rlay with the Antelopes during the coming season.

The price of the crack infielder's sale was not made public. Quillin formerly played with, Lincoln, going from here to Sioux City and then to Minneapolis. During the past five years he was a member of five championship teams, at Mioux City, Minneapolis, and Denver. Hefusal to sign with Denver at the terms offered and evidenced desire to play in Lincoln, his home, led to the conclusion of the deal. AGGIE SPRINTER WINS DASH IN K.

BRAIN STICKS OUT THRO" HOLE IN SKULL Young Man, Riding on Train, Gets Head Crushed Found Wandering in Cold Wear Emmett May Recover.

DELICATE OPERATION PERFORMED After wandering about In the cold from midnight until daylight with a hole in his skull through which part of his brains protruded and hung down over his face, Herman McGernahan, a young man whose home is at Emmett, stands a fairly good chance to recover. McGernahan, who is 20 years of age, spent last Monday in Onaga. He was expected home on a freight train which went through Emmett about midnight. He did not return home that night, but at daylight he was discovered near the Emmett depot walking aimlessly about with his brains exuding from a gaping hole in his skull, at the juncture of the scalp and forehead over his right eys. He was conscious, but too dazed to tell, if he knew, how he received his injury.

However, it was believed he either fell from the train or was hit by some projection on a car after getting off the train. The injured young man was brought to Topeka on the first train, arriving early in the afternoon, and was rushed to Christ's hospital. There he was operated upon by Dr. Otto Klene and Dr. W.

S. Prout. Although the operation occurred more than twelve hours after he had been injured, during part of which time he had wandered about in the cold, with a portion of his brain exposed to wind, dust and germs, the operation gives good promise of being successful. Pieces of shattered bone were removed from the surface of the brain. Yesterday, four days after the operation, he was showing some improvement, with no symptoms of meningitis, which frequently follows injuries which open the' skull.

He is conscious, but unable to remember how he received his Injury. Had the injury not exposed the brain, making a hole through the scalp and skull, young McGernahan probably would not have lived to reach the operating table. The blood which would have escaped inside the skull after the injury would not have been able to find an exit. The result would have been a clot which probably would have caused death by causing pressure on the brain. ENGLISHMAN III DANGER, BRYAN ORDERS PROTEST Washington, D.

March 7. Another British subject has gotten into trouble in the state of Chihuahua, and the state department has again been called upon to extend its protection. Sir Cecil Spring-Rice called at the state department today to inform Secretary Bryan that an Englishman named Syndah had been driven away from his ranch and his property at least was in danger of destruction. Secretary Bryan immediately telegraphed American Consul Letcher at Chihuahua, to make an inquiry and report the facts. If necessary, a protest will be made to Car-ranza or Villa.

BRYAN'S MESSAGE MAY OFFEND CARRANZA AGAIN El Paso, March 7. When Consul Letcher left here today to return to his post at Chihuahua, it is understood that he carried instructions from Secretary of State Bryan with reference to the case of Luis Terrazas, who Is being held for ransom by General Villa. It is said that both General Villa and and General Carranza will be informed that the state department could construe the threatened execution of Terrazas as indicative of great weakness in the rebel government in northern Mexico. SIXTY FEDERALS KILLED IN BATTLE WITH REBELS Brownsville, March 7. Sixty Mexican federals, including six officers, were killed in a battle Wednesday in the hills between Monte Morelos and Caderoyta, state of Nuevo Leon, according to news received today in Matamoras at Constitutionalist headquarters.

SPORTSMEN WELCOME RETURNED TOURISTS New York, March 7. Men prominent in every line of sport and from all parts of the country gathered tonight to attend the banquet given in honor of the world's touring baseball players who arrived here yesterday morning. Baseball magnates, officials and players naturally predominated, but all branches of amateur and professional sport were represented among the 700 persons attending. President Charles A. Comlskey was to have spoken on "The World's Tour," but was indisposed tonight.

"Commy" was cheered for nearly five minutes as he rose and bowed. Another great outburst of applause came when Manager John J. McGraw stepped to the speaker's platform and delivered his address, entitled "The Giants." 18 OF CREW. nitlFTIXti. RESCCED.

New York, March 7. The eighteer members of the crew of the Charlemagne Tower, adrift in a long boat landed safely this afternoon at the Cedar Creek (X. life saving station ot Ob hBRnn i ivivp" To gretthe genuine, call for full name LAAAlIVt, CKU.MU gUIMXE. Look for signature of RRnrK rn Exactly half of the points scored by the whole team to his credit is the record of Captain Dwight Ream of the AVashburn basketball team, champions of Kansas, for the season just passed. Out of 3S8 points Ream made 194, 140 of them by seventy field goals and fifty-four by free throws.

Ream was guarded closely all through the season, every team making an effort to "get Ream." But despite the Blue captain's wonderful showing, the Ichabod quintet was not a one-man team. It was teamwork, fast passing and a knowledge of the game that took the title for the Blue. Every game was worked out by the team on the floor and Ream proved himself one of the best floor generals in the state. Coach Glenn C. Gray added another incident to his already shinig halo by taking the title with him team.

Gray came to Wrashburn from Oberlin with a wonderful reputation as a player and coach and, a new man with new men, put out a football team that claimed the state title with no conference defeats and a basketball team with an undisputed claim to the state championship. In basketball Gray did not work along the lines laid down by his predecessors but gave Washburn an entirely different style of play. At his present pace Gray will soon be as ln-dispensible to the Topeka school as Quigley is to St. Marys and in addition have a record as a coach rarely known in this part of the country. LOST BUT OXB COXFEEEXCE GAME W'ashburn's basketball team finished in the race for the state title far ahead of any of the other teams, winning nine out of ten Kansas Conference games and nine out of a schedule of eleven.

In all, 388 points were scored, as against 294 points by opposing teams. Two games were lost, the first to Kansas University by the score of 37 to 28 on the K. U. court, and the second to Baker on the Washburn court by a score of 30 to 29. Kansas refused to give the Ichabods a return game, and Washburn best the Methodists at Baldwin 28 to 26, one point better than Baker beat the Blue.
