WHO WERE THEY?

A rather peculiar case, and one which
may yet prove to be of interest, was last
night related by a gentleman from the
West Side. At the time it was too late to
investigate the matter thoroughly, and
the facts are gwen as related and for what
they are worth.
''Some time ago." he said, "there came
TO the West Side IA man. woman and child,
who took up their residence in a small
house on Oak street They seemed to live
separate and apart from every one else,
and in fact would have nothing whatever
to do with any of their neighbors They
lived thus secluded for some time, when
the man disappeared and another one in a
few days afterwards seemed to take his
position as head of the family. He, too,
was but seldom seen by any one. and at
last all disappeared and the house was
locked up. 1t has been standing thus
closed and locked for some time. One of
the neighbors at last, having occasion
to go upon the property found a terrible
stencil arising from the place and COM
menced looking around to see whence it
proceeded. The doors he found locked and
the windows barred. Some persons who
are familiar with the house say that there
is in the floor trap door and beneath this
an excavation. All of these things taken
together with the mysterious condu ct of
the former occupants of the place lead
many to believe that if an investigation
were to be made some startling finds
would be brought to light. The police, l
am told, have been informed of the matter
and an investigation will take place to-
morrow"

A LIAR TURNED LOOSE.

The American Banker, a cheap publica-
ton with big name, printed, presumably,
in som. sub-cellar in New York, and de-
voted TO its own advertising rates more
than to the interest il pretends 10 espouse,
and which shows its unrelability by the
fact that it quotes cheap evening paper
of Philadelphia, states that one Frank r.
Cordley had made the charge that the re
ports of the Wichita clearings were or
have been unreliable, not being made upon
the proper basis. This Cordley goes on 10
say that the bankers here are in the habit
of fixing up their clearings through tele-
phone, or words to that effect, and that
party whom he knows and who was in
Wichita by accident overheard such
work. This self-convicted spy and liar
is no doubt the fellow who hung around
our banks for several days and then went
away hopping mad because our bankers
refused TO advertise in his cheap publica-
bank clearings association is not only Of
ticered by honorable men but its reports
are correct and beyond criticism, especial
ly from blood suckers who, when they can
not bleed attempt to blast. Cordley may
be all right and responsible but he ought
not to write such letters until he has made
Il thorough investigation, as such state
ments are not only damaging but are OF
such character that it takes q long time
to remove the wrong impressions made
by them.

He was born May II, 1912, in Sligo
county, Ireland. and came to America
when only six years of age with his brother
Michael. They settled at Roundout,
Ulster county New York, where he grew
to manhood. When Lincoln made his
first call for troops the youth who had
grown up under the institutions Of this
country and scarce knew any other home
was one of the first to enlist in the service
OF his country. He was member of COM
pany f, Twentieth New York infantry for
three years He was in the battles of An
tietam, fredericksburg, second battle of
Bull Run and Cedar Mountain.
Mr.. Kennedy was foreman of coustruc-
tion gang on the Santa Fe railway in New
Mexico, where he met and married Mrs.
Jane Humphrey. After the railroad was
completed they came to Wichita in 1883,
where he invested his money in real estate
and has been actively engaged in the real
estate business since He left considerable
property and bis business in first-class
shape He was member OF the Catholic

THE DOUGLAS DIAMOND ROBBERY.

Mr.. j. L. Matthews returned yesterday
from a trip through Butler county. While
away he visited Douglas and made some
inquiry into the facts concerning the
diamond robbery, perpetrated at that
place two or three weeks ago. of which
mention was made at the time in the tele
graphic columns of the EAGLE. He found
that there was nothing in the world to
prevent robbers getting all they wanted as
no one slept in the block in which Elliot's
jewelry store is situated, and the opposite
block had only one occupant. Mr.. Mat
thews says the prevailing impression in
Douglas is that the robbery was perpetrat
ed by cracksmen from Wichita and that
the citizens are somewhat surprised that
the officers here have not paid more atten-
ton to the case, considering the fact that
upwards of 500 is offered for the recovery
OF the PROPERTY

SHE SAID SHE WAS ROBBED.

Last evening a woman came up to Officer
Fenner, at the corner of Main and Douglas
and said that she had been robbed of a
valuable gold watch. Upon being asked
for further particulars regarding the theft
she commenced crying. and said that a
man who is employed at one Of the hotels
had come 10 her home and taken the watch
from her pocket by force. The officer d.
rected her to the station
Sometime afterwards she was found by
City Marshal Mcnamara wandering
around on the street and given berth in
the cooler Her name was Mrs. Nesting, a
person not unknown 70 the police, aud she
will this morning answer 10 the charge of
drunkenness Whether she had really
lost her watch or whether it was but the
imaginings Of her drunken brain was not

PROMISING ACTION.
THE SEWER COMMITTEE TAKES A
FORWARD STEP.
A Pumping System Adopted tor
Flushing the Sewers.
Right of Way Deeds to be Formu.
lated and Steps to be at
Once Taken to Secure the
Requisite Rights.

The sewerage committee of the city,
under the Craftsmanship OF Mr. P V. Healy,
met in the council chans O. yesterday after
noon with the chairman and Meyers, Pratt,
Buckridge, Glaze and Slower present
The meeting was called expressly 20
debate upon and adopt some method of
flushing the proposed system of sewerage.
Mr.. Buckridge, having just returned from
St. Louis. was full of Information regard
ing machinery, and thought that pump
ing station would meet all the require
ments of the case He made a motion to
the effect that this system of flushing be
adopted and the motion was seconded and
carried.
A long step forward was taken in the
matter or securing the right of way
and the city attorney was instructed TO
formulate blank deed which should be
presented to property holders for sigma
ture. The city engineer was invited TO
provide at once list of the number of
lots and blocks along the alleys On WEIGH
the proposed sewer will run and the city
clerk was instructed to obtain the names
of the owners thereof without delay, SO
that the sewer committee can at once
proceed To secure Title TO the right OF way
After some further discussion the meet
ing adjourned to convene again
on Wednesday next when the. blank
deeds will be in readiness and it is hoped
the committee will be able to at once set
about securing titles to the right of way
needed.
The pumps, should the council adopt
the report of tie special committee, will
be placed at the north end of the sewers
where drive wells will be sunk near the
little river. The total cost of pumps, en-
CINE, &C.. will be in the neighborhood of
S 300 and il was ascertained that the
yearly expenses, allowing 500 for repairs,
would amount 10 about $500. Later in
the day Mr.. Healy was seen and he re-
marked hat as chairman of the meeting,
he had had no say in the vote on this
pumping system and that he was OF ,sed
to it on the ground that it was more ex-
pensive than would be flushing with wa

LOOK OUT Flk THEM.

1t IS desired to warn the public against
gang of eastern robbers, calling them
selves real estate men, who are now oper-
ating in this section If the country and
have already succeeded in roping in more
than one unwary trader. The modus
operandi seems to be trading of worth
less for more or less valuable property.
The sharks are generally owners of lands
in northern Nebraska or Dakota swamps,
lands that are utterly valueless and which
have cost perhaps the munifcent sum Of
% cents per acre. Armed with deeds TO
this property the owners ferret out the
owners of western lands and with specious
representations (or misrepresent ations)
work up a trade which generally leaves
their victims minus home which It has
taken him years Of toll to secure.

RAIDED.

Officers Burrows and Jenkins yesterday
went up to the stock yards to make a raid
upon joint near there. They found the

brick building opposite the stock yards ex-
change and took possession of both man
and property. The latter was loaded into
wagon preparatory TO being brought
down TO the city and the man was permit
ed to go up stairs to change his clothing.
He went up and locking himself in a room
refused to come out when called by the
police. They waited around the building
for sometime for him to come down and at
last Burrows and Jenkins drove off, leav-
ing Officer Parks to watch. The jointist,
not recognizing Parks, comes from his
place of concealment and thus easily falls
into the hands of the officer and was brought
