BURKITT'S MANAGERS DENY ONE STORY State I nlreralty Shorn an Inrtrai ol Almost n Hnndred la Renlatratlon a Compared Mih Same Time Last Year. (From a Start Corre fpondrnt.) LINCOLN. Neb., Sept. W. (Spei-lal.)-The fuHlon county conference committers have not yot perfected their deliberations and arrangements for announcing their legis lative ticket. It is protty well settled, however, that tliey will present two demo crats and one populist tj try conclusions with the republican candidates, their Idea being that thefle three may catch enough votes from disaffected republicans to de ftut .three of the republican candidates. Members of the committee were not dis posed today to make public the names of the three cand.ates whom they are en deavoring -to induce to run. Two of them, however, have already been mentioned, bt Ing John B. Miller and Frank Eager. Mr. Miller Is Inclined to Insist that he be given assurance thit he will not be elected be fore he will consent to the use of his name. The third Is a prominent business man whose consent has not yet been secured, and may not be, so thAt the committee would not give his name to-the public. It Is hinted that "C. II. Budge, a well known furniture dealer, Is to be the third candi date. Story a Fabrication. The tale In an Omaha paper that the managers of Congre.sman Burkett'a cam paign are maintaining separata headquar ters In Lincoln for the purpose of fur thering the Interests of Mr. Burkett. and that Its managers meanwhile are knifing Governor Mickey, is pronounced a Billy fab rication by the friends of the First district congressman. A visit to Congressman Rurkrtt's head quarters in this city is sufficient to dis prove the story! Instead of a doaen stenog raphers there Is only one, who has been regularly employed by Mr. Burkett. George E. Tobey, his private secretary, and Rufus Clark, who Is engaged in sending out Con gressional Records, constitute the remain der of the office force. Mr. Munger Is In charge of Burkett head quarters and the Burkett campaign. Mr. Slzer ha not been at all active In the campaign, and Mr. Blgnell has not been around at all. The story- that Mr. Slzer does not stay around the postofflce is abso lutely untrue, as those who have hnd busi ness with the postmaster are well aware Oil Inspection I. aw Defective. It Is discovered that there Is a seemingly serious defect In the law governing the testing of illuminating oils. Ex-Oil In spector Hayes has been given credit for securing the amendment of the law whereby the test 'was raised from 100 to 112 degrees; It has Just come to light that the amendment as mode was decidedly lame. The measure adopted at the last session. Introduced by P. H. Beghtol of Lancaster county, simply provided that oil that does not measure to the 112 test shall be rejected by the oil Inspectors. Tt was section 3 of the old law that provided the degree of the test, and that is the section that was amended. Section, which pro vides the penalty for violations of the lew, escaped the observation of the amendors evidently, as It still provides a penalty only for the sale of oils that do not test to 100 degrees. The result Is, so It Is said, that dealers may aU- with litimunhgi ell that teste MO degrees, even after the oil Inspector, act ing under section 8 of the law, has re jected the same. Gordon Files Appeal. W. A. Oordon, recently fined by Judge E. M. Bartlett for an assault in the court room upon Trustee Horton of the Greater America exposition, has filed his brief In his proceeding In error before the supreme court to have the fine of $100 set aside. Preparing? Assessors' Books. Member of the State Board of Equaliza tion have prepared plans and lodged a requisition with the State Printing board for the annual supply pf assessors' books under the law as it now exists. Something like 2,200 books are needed. Members of the board declare that their action In lodging the requisition at this time is not calculated to give an Impression of con fidence in the continuance of the law or an expression as to its virtues, but rather a precautionary step to procure the neces sary books in ample time. It is essential that they be In readiness In January, and It may take considerable time to prepare them, and last winter considerable delay was experienced in getting them. Increase at l Diversity. Registration at the University of Ne braska lost week was ninety-one more than for the first week last year, the total en. rollment being 1,123, against 1,032 In 1903.

Game Commissioner Carter has received a dispatch from Deputy Game Warden Welch of Tllden stating that he has cap tured two prairie chicken hunters at thnt place. The deputy wardens are active In hunting for violators of the law. At this season of the yar the birds are -Just large enough to make good shooting and it Is so near the time for the opening of the season that it Is difficult to hold the hunters In check. Warden Carter has experienced much trouble when the time comes for the opening of the season. It Is a hard matter to convince the average hunter that there Is any harm In killing the birds when the season Is to open In a short time. The open season begins October 1 and lasts until November 30. During that time It is lawful to shoot grouse and prairie chicken. The greater number of violations are re ported from the western counties, where the birds are very plentiful this year. Former Lincoln Man Skips. A cory of the Nampa (Idaho) Leader of last, Wednesday gives some Interesting de tails ot he sensational career there of F. C. Woodward, formerly of Lincoln. The last heard of Woodward here was a year or so ago, when he was disbarred la Red Lodge, Mont., for signing the name of a law firm to a recommendation for admis sion to the supreme court. At that time he show-! such contrition that It was thought .ie would reform, but the Idaho paper says not. It says. In part: y. C. Woodward, who several months ago opened up a stock exchange in one of the rooms of the Dewey Palace hotel, skipped out of town Monday evening after defraud ing a number of people out of considerable sums of money. Woodward covered his movements so adroitly that no suspicion was entertained until after he had left town. His landlord found that Woodward, who was consider able of a dandy and had several line suits of clothes, had taken them all with him, leaving nothing but a worn out suit and some old neckties. The cannonball next morning failed to bring him, and It was found that he had falsified the market re ports on the day previous. By so doing he had collected money on margins, getting JVoO from one person who had bought I wheat. The wheat market closed Monday at xi.izm. According to wooawnras Doara It was fl.071. At about U o'clock came a telegram from Boise, signed F. C Wood ward, stating that he had missed the Cannonball and would be over at 2 o'clock, but this did not allay the suspicion, as It was suspected that some woman In Boise, who had been over here several times with Woodward, had sent It In an endeavor to cover his flight and give him more time. A little Inquiry soon revealed that she had sent the telegram and further that she had come over Monday evening, purchased a ticket to Pocatello for Woodward and hart his baggage checked there. A telegram was sent the chief of police at Pocatello, but it was probably too late to head him off. His wife and son are In Nebraska visiting relatives.
