Without a single exception yester-
day was the quietest day that Sedalia
has known since the strike was inaug-
urated, four weeks ago tomorrow.
The company officials moved sixteen
trains at this point, eight arriving and
an equal number departing, but there
we're no sensational developments.
The deputy sherifs were present as
usual, but there were not as many
breech-loaders perceptible as on previ-
Gus days, and the uninitiated would
never for q moment have suspected
that Sedalia had for nearly a month
been the paradise of the strikers.
There were very few freight cars in
tie yards, owing to the fact
that they were sent out as soon
Is they arrived, and within
and around the shops there was very
little in the way Of business going on.
The strikers were not visible in East
Sedalia, and one deputy sheriff ven
tured the opinion that they had
crawled into their holes and pulled
the holes in after them. In the after
n DON, however, many of them were
seen down town, being attracted by
the prosecution of five of their num-

Thursday, and then ordering him to
leave town. The cases were set for a
hearing before Justice Marvin at 2
o'clock p. M, and at that time all Of
the defendants were in court, as fol-
lows: Ike Wright, j. j. Buckley,
John Ferris, Dan Neville and David
Cronan. County Attorney Lamm ap-
peared for the safe, while the prison
ers we're represented by Capt.
L. L. Bridges, who at once asked for
change Of venue. This was granted
and the cases were transferred to JUS
tice O'Brien, who proceeded to try
them in Justice Marvin's court room,
IN the presence of large crowd of
evidently interested spectators. As
40 severance was asked for, the de-
PENDANTS were all arraigned and en-
tered pleas of not guilty. The evil
dence disclosed substantially what was
BET forth in yesterdays BAzoo, but
the prosecuting witness was unable to
swear that any of the prisoners except
Neville assaulted him after he had
been dragged into the Knights of
Labor headquarters. 1t was shown,
however, that Cronan, Ferris and
Buckley assisted Neville in escorting
out of town, several wit

TEsTIFYING TO THE FACT.
At the conclusion of the arguments,
after 6 o'clock p. M, Justice OBrien
aid he would fine Neville s. and
costs, while the other defendants
would be discharged. The decision was
with evident satisfaction by
very striker present, but not so by
parties who had heard
The evidence throughout. O'Brien
was denounced in unmeasured terms,
and more than once was the remark
made that he should be impeached
from Office.
