A Lively Chase.

III. G. Finch, who has charge of the
night guards at the NJ, K. Il T.
shops, had a lively chase last evening.
He perceived two suspicious charac.
tiers meandering around among the
cars, and realizing that they had no
business there he called upon them
for an explanation. Instead of fur.
nishing one, however, both men took
to their heels, with Finch in pursuit.
The race was pretty one, but Finch
proved the fleetest of foot, and after
running three and one-half blocks sue
ceeded in capturing the men. They
were escorted to the calaboose, where
they gave their names as Barney Cake
and Jas. Maroney. They viii be call.
ed upon Monday to answer to the
charge of trespassing.

TAKES CONTROL TO-DAY.
The Missouri Pacific Leases the
st. Louis & EmpOria
Railroad.

TODAY May 1, the Missouri Pa
citc will re possession, under
lease, of the st. Louis Il Emporia
railroad. extending from Butler, Mo. :,
to kincaid, Kas., passing through
Pleasanton and Mound City and
making direct connection with the
Kansas City, Fort Scott & Gulf. The
line has been operated independently,
is OIL miles in length and is an i'm
pOrtant acquisition. The general
Offices of the company are located at
Emporia, Kan, with the following
officials: &. Hood, general manager;
j. c. Carpenter, superintendent, and
A. w. Stillwell, general freight and
passenger agent.
To-day the officials of the Missouri
Pacific will assume control OF the
operations of the linz, everything be-
ing in readiness for the transfer. The
principal importance attactle to the
acquisition of this property py the
Missouri Pacific is Its strategic value,
and the fact that competitive lines are
thus shut eff from securing it. 1t is
in the line of territory upon
which all eyes are now turned, and is
another evidence of the tact and far
seeing ability of the Missouri Pacific

A Blackmailer Bounced.

A man named Stroud, teamster,
stepped into Whitaker's drug store at
Nevada yesterday afternoon and call
ed for the proprietor. The clerk re-
piled that Mr.. Whitaker was not in,
and asked what was wanted. Stroud
said he wanted S25 as he had bought
whiskey there, and would have Whita,
ker indicted if the money was not
forthcoming. Stroud then went away,
but soon after returned. In the mean.
time Mr.. Whitaker had reached the
store and the clerk informed him of
what had transpired. Shortly after,
this Stroud again materalized, when
the proprietor asked him if he wanted
to see him. He replied that he did,
and made a demand for the s25,
threatening indictment if the amount
was not paid. The proposition was
hardly finished when Mr.. Whitaker
had hold of him and was kicking him
out of the house. Stroud immediate.
ly left the scene, and was subsequent
ly arrested for blackmail.

Dunnigan Fined.

Tom Dunnigan. one ofthe bulldozers,
who, on Thursday night stopped
Frank Church and VIM. Dunn, ma
chinists at the Pacific shops, and in
dulged in language anything but COM
plimentary, was arraigned in the
police court yesterday to answer the
charge of disturbing the peace. AS
might have been expected, the de-
PENDANT called for a jury which was
accorded him. A number of witnesses
were examined, and it was proven
conclusively that Dunnigan was
guilty. He was fined So, which he
finally succeeded in raising and was
thus released. 1t is almost certain
that those who were associated with
Dunnigan in this disreputsble bust
ness will alss be arrested and prose
cuted.

the police call and interrogate him on the
subject.

He Came to Sedalia to Locate
the Men Who Robbed Him
Thursday Night.

j. Murley, general merchandise
dealer of Montserrat, johnson county,
arrived in the city yesterday and at
once sought Chief of Police jackson
to ask the aid of that officer in appre-
bending the parties who robbed the
visitors store some time Thursday
night.
The thieves attempted to gam an
entrance through the front door, but
failed, and it is Mr.. Murley's belief
that one of them must have mashed
his fingers in the attempt, as blood
was found on the door casing, the
prints of the bloody digits showing
plainly on everything that was
touched.
An iron bar over a rear window
was then broken and the sash raised,
when the thieves entered and proceed
ed to help themselves, carrying of
goods to the value of between $3.50
and $500. Among the articles taken
were two watches, a clock, ladies' and
gents shoes, meersehaum pipes, cut
lery, etc.
The burglars left in the store a
bOOtblack's outfit and a paper sack
containing two small pieces of bologna,
and these circumstances caused MIR.
Murley to believe that the robbery
was probably committed by eOlored
bootblacks hailing from Sedalia.
Chief jackson was furnished with
description of the missing goods, but
unless some of them are offered for
sale here there is very little likeli-
hood of capturing the guilty parties.

EATON'S ERROR.
How One of Feldott's Brakeman,
"the Dude" Was Picked
UP Yesterday.

Fred. Eaton, known as ';the dude"
brakeman on Conductor Feldott's
train, says "d-n the tramps." This
was the conclusion he reached yester-
day when he arrived at Upton on his
regular run, and when all the circum-
stances are made public he will not
be blamed for expressing himself in
such an emphatic manner.
When Feldott's train, the local
freight, reached Upton, at $40
o'clock Thursday afternoon, Brake
man Eaton discovered on the platform
an antiquated vslise which looked as
though it might have been the prop
erty of Noah, prior to his taking
refuge in the ark. The grip was
about three feet in length and proper
tionately wide. 1t was not a beauty,
and the heft of it convinced Eaton
that it contained nothing of value.
AS there was no one standing
around to claim the baggage, the
trainmen had their fun over the
"find," and when the train pulled out
Eaton took the valise into the caboOse
with him. Then it was utilized for a
foot ball, until finally it flew open, and
presented to the view of the train men
two or three collars and a couple of
pairs of socks. 1t was at length per-
mitted to fall from the caboose and
the train ran over it, which caused it
to be forgotten fer the time being.
Yesterday morning, however. when
Feldott and his crew arrived at Upton
they had the valise brought forcibly
to mind. 1t appears that it had be-
longed to tramp, and when he missed
his property he determined upon re-
venge. Accordingly he swore out a
warrant, charging Eaton with larceny,
and the young man was arrested
shortly after putting foot on the depot
platform.
At first Fred thought some of the
boys were playing a joke ON him, but
he soon realized his mistake, for not
until he gave bend in the sum of 500
for his appearance for trial did he
gain his liberty.
In the meantime the remainder Of
the crew had their own sport at Freds
but all that the latter had to
say was "d-n the trsmps, anyhow. !"

Drew i'm Jail.

Young Drew, SON of r. w. Drew,
and ''tough," was yesterday commit
ted to the county jail, where letters will
reach him for the next twenty-slx
days. He was arraigned before JUS
tice OBrien TO answer to the charges
of assault and battery and carrying
concealed weapons. He pleaded
guilty to both and was fined 81 and
costs, or a total of s17.65, on the
former charge, while on the latter he
was sentenced to five days imprison-
ment in the county Jail. The costs in
the latter case foot up $3.50 also, so
it is quite probable the haunts that
have heretofore known the young
man will know him no more for the
next four weeks.

SITUATION AT THE SHOPS.
The Eight Hour Movement Did
Not ''ShOw Up" i'm Soda
Lila Yesterday.
The Condition of Affairs i'm the
Various Departments of
the Two Roads.

The eight hour agitation did mo-
materialize in Sedalia yesterday, a,
many had been led to believe il
would. The shop men at the Mis-
souri, Pacific and NJ, X. & Il. seem
to be perfectly satisfied to perform
ten hours work for ten hours paw,
and no trouble from this source is an
ticipated at any time in the future.
Said Pacific official last night:
"Our men are perfectly satisfied.
We have class of employees that is
far superior to those employed prior
to the strike, and they are not only
willing but anxious to work ten hours
each day. The day of rule OF ruin
is thing of the past in Sedalia,
thank God"
Master Mechanic Weller's pay rolls,
as made out up to May LIST, show that
ne has at present a force of
ITO men employed in the Pacific
shops here, as against 246 prior to
March 9th. The present working
force on his entire division is 375
men, or only eighty-four less than he
had when the strike was inaugurated.
81 am not employing any more
men for this point" said Mr.. Weller
yesterday afternoon to the BAzoo
man.
"Why not ?" was asked.
Because the force is sufficiently
large. / put three additional ma
chinists to work this morning, which
gives me all the men / need in this
| also added four at
Pleasant Hill-one machinist and
three wipers."
"You do not want machinists
even"
"No, sir, / do not. If a good man
comes along and am in want Of
man at some other point i will en-
Dlov him, but not otherwise"
Business can't be very brisk with
TOu," remarked the reporter.
That's where you are wrong. Bus
ness is unusually good, but all our
Engines are in good order, or nearly
%, hence large force of employees is
lot required"
A look through the shops convinced
he BAzoo man of the truthfplness of
dr. Weller's assertion. Everything
bout the place i in the best DOssible
hape, and the work in hand is being
urned out as rapidly as it is needed.
Engine No. 278, one of the new mon
ter Baldwins, which required some
little overhauling, was turned out
asst evening and will be sent west on
No. 8 this morning.
AT the NJ, K. & t. shops every
hing is progressing favorably, and
Master Car Builder Irwin is turning
ut a large amount of work.

It Was Incendiary.

The burning of Gresham Bros.
grocery and hardware store, early
yesterday morning, is now believed
to have been the work of an incen
diary. In fact, it is almost assured
that the store was first burglarized,
after which the torch was applied,
with view of concealing the crime.
1t is said a number of guns and re.
volvers were carried away by the
thieves, and this seems probable, as
not even the barrels of the weapons
could be found in the debris yester.
day. There is no clue.
