MIssISG.-John Mckinley, of st. Joseph, last week
started for Troy, for the purpose of buying farm
and has not been heard from since He had some
communication with Robert Tracy, and somehow
Bobs name got mixed up with the disappearance
An impression in the matter prevails to the follow
ing effect. Mckinley bargained for farm near
here Tor s2'oOO He had no money, but his wife had
$50, in st. Joseph bank. He told her he had bar
gained for the farm for g. 300 and she drew her
money from the bank, and gave it to him, to come
over and complete the purchase. He never came
The suppostioni is that he got his WIFE money down
his hrceehes leg and skipped with it. If this is an
error and he foully dealt WITH it was before he
left st. Joe. Bob Tracy had not seen the man for
week before his disappearance had no acquaintance
with him, except that he knew HIM, and WAS not in
ST. Joe at the time.
They might hang Bob, on suspicion; and then,
when the missing man is heard from, it will make
splendid sensational item TO tell about an innocent
man being hanged. Bob might object; but he
ought to be willing to do something to contribute to
the amusement of the public

MUEDER Oh WILL +. FosTER.-lu another column
we publish an article from Mrs. Foster mother of
the late W. 4. Foster, of Severance, who killed
in ST. Joseph, last September. We do not wonder
that she ninsles grief and Indignation. From all
accounts the basest treachery to and abandonment
of the of justice in behalf of widow and her
fatherleSs children has been perPetrated. The man
who killed Foster has been acquitted because there
was nobody to appear against him. The general
agent and one Sub-agents of the company
for which Foster WINS working, witnesses of the
killing The agent pledged himself that the Conipa-
ny would leave nothing undone TO bring to punish
meIt the murderer of of their employees. Yet
when the time for trial came on, that agent sudden

reach ofthe Court and every subagcnt who was
witness Of the killing was conveniently despatched
To distant points, beyond the Jurisdiction of the
Court. IL is useless TO claim that this Just happened
so, in the regular course of business. Those men
led and accompanied Foster into the scrapc in which
he was killed, and then away and abandoned
the cause of his family when his murderer WAS to he
tried for the crime. What wns the intucement I!
How much did it cost the murderer and his friends
