REyEKKSe to the cost OF railroad pools

REFERRING to the cost of railroad pools
the Philadelphia Press says that all told
these organizations cost in salaries and
expenses 81 ,223, ,72l, and to this must be
added the time given by railroad officers
who attend them to aid someone else in
minding their own work. This is esti-
mated at $4,000 q year, no overesti
mate. The total cost Of these luxuries
was in 1888 81 800, ,OJ0, or about 2 per
cent of the sum paid out as diyinends
last year by the entire railroad system Of
the country. The worst OF it is that last
wear these associations accomplished al
most nothing. The fact is that pools and
associations are not wanted when there
is freight enough to go around, and they
break down when there isn't. Some
firmer bond sanctioned by law is needed
to control our railroads.

A SLEEPY PASSENGER.
He Takes a Header Into the
Ditch and is Severely
Bruised.

ID. III. Morris is farmer living near
St. Louis, and he came up to Sedalia
ON the train which arrived here al
3:15 this morning. When the train
arrived here Mr.. Morris wss sound
asleep and failed to get off, when the
train pulled out and was running at q
pretty fair rate of speed about three
hundred yards west of the depot the
conductor espied Mr.. Morris and
going to him awoke him and asked
him if Sedalia was not his destlna.
ton. Mr.. Morris who was
still half asleep seemed
dazed and before any one could in
terfere rushed TO the platform and
leaped off, The result may be antici-
paled. His face and head was gashed
and bruised in several places and his
wrist was bruised and sprained, be-
side receiving other bruises and
wrenches incident to such an uncere-
moniOus manner of alighting. Mr..
Morris was able, however to reach the
Merchants hotel, corner of Main and
Lamine streets, where his injuries
were attended to by DR.. Hnnlock.
He is very sore to-day but his injuries
are not of a serious character.

The situation i'm Oklahoma.

Kansas City, Kan, April 3-JOhn K.
FurlOng, an old time boon er, came to the
city yesterday and Joined the forces here.
There are about 5000 prospective settlers
camped here, and more arriving daily.
Mr.. Furlong is good authority on OklabO-
ma, and says that all is quiet at Purcell
and vicinity. But the crowd there is
increasing as fast as trail and wagons
can fetch the people. He es Inmates
that there are at least 1900 people at Pur-
cell. They are camped up and down
the river for several mites, and are
ready and waiting for high II on the 22nd
day of this month. He thinks that if the
people continue TO head for Oklahoma for
the next three weeks a rapidly as they
have been for the last Two weeks there will.
at that time, be ready to move on the land
five for each claim. He adv ses the peos
pie TO take this matter under consideration
before making move, and to remember
that this is only the opening wedge of the
Indian Territory. He fears there will be
= great deal of trouble and liligration. He
says all must 60 from Oklahoma. as there
are 150 troops now at Oklahoma station
and ready TO move to make a general
cleanup. Col. Wade, the COM
mander al Fort Reno, came to Okla
homa Station last night, and
intends to take field charge until every
man is arrested or driven from the coun-
try. Col. Wade intends placing a CON-
pany at Purcell, Oklahoma Station, Guth-
RE and several other points when more
are needed. Notices have been posted up
alodg the line of the Santa Fe through the
Oklahoma country giving warning that no
person must attempt to stay upon the
right of way OF the railroad company.
This order is evidently sent out to prevent
people who are passing through the coun-
try from camping on the land until the
Oklahoma lands are open for settlement.

DEATH OF A MISER.
Thomas Kennedy, a Notorious
Sedalia MiSer Dies i'm a
Howell.
He Leaves Several Thousand Dol
lars Worth of PrOperty-His
Will PrObated.

Almost everyone around or near
the union depot for the past few years
has noticed decrepit, miserable look
ing old man looking for scraps OF
bread or anything that a passer ser
might throw out of the Car window,
that he could eat, or now and
then picking up stray cigar
stub which he would take
to his miserable home to dry out and
crunble up to smoke or chew. His
was very familiar figure in the rear
of the stores near the railroad track
and about the lumber yards. and at
almost anytime he could Ebe seen with
a few pieces of kindlings or barrel
slaves on his shoulder on Jefferson
street In the vicinity of the gas works.
And by ali this mean, stingy way of
living he has accumulated several
thousand dollars which he has invest
ed in real estate which was paying a
very fair rent roll into his pockets each
month. And still with all his wealth
to keep him in ease and comfort for
the rest of his life, he died in a poor,
miserable hut that is hardly fit for
dog to live in, much less a poor
weak miserable old man. 1t is said
by some that he had stopped so low
as to sneak around behind saloons and
hotels and would eat the pickings out
of slOp barrels or eat anything else he
could find that was possible for a hu-
man to eat. His hut was miserably
furnished. There was barely covering
enough on his bed to keep him from
freezing and the lack of clothes is
probably what ended his life. He
was taken down with pneumonia last
Saturday, and Saturday afternoon he
made a will bequeathing all his prop
erty to his three nieces in Taunton,
Massachusetts,. A telegram was sent
to the husband of one of his
nieces TO come TO Sedalia and
an answer came this morning stating
that he was out of work and had no
money to come with, but the poor old
man never lived to read the answer to
his telegram, for he was dead when
it came. He died at six o'clock this
morning and his body was taken
in charge by j. E. Hills. The
burial will take place to morrow after
noon.

Au Officer Overtakes and Arrests
the Fugitive at Parsons.

William Elvins, young man who
has for some time been student In
Robbins Commercial college, is in the
middle of bad fix, and will in all
prob ability complete his business edu-
cation at Jefferson City under the tut
ton of the state of Missouri. He
bOardei at the residence
of Gus Schwartz at Third
and Kentucky streets, with room
mate named John Jones. He went
to the room at lste hour Saturday
night and found Jones asleep. He
took his sleeping partners pantalOons
from under bis pillow ana robbed the
pockets of the contents, SIS, and
then took his own trunk quietly out OF
the house and boarded the south-bound
NJ, K. & T., train which left here at
$3.50 Sunday morning. The robbery
and Elvins absence were not discover
ed until Jones awoke yesterday MORN
ing and discovered his
loss. He ediately gave
the alarm and the police discovered
from porter who carried the trunk
to the depot that Elvins had pur-
chased ticket and checked his trunk
to Dallas. Texas. kilograms were
sent down the liue to intercept the
fugitive, and Officer Fifer boarded the
train yesterday in pursuit. This
morning he telegraphed from Parsons,
Kansas, that he had caught Elvins
and had his trunk. He will reach
here this evening with his prisoner.
Elvins also jumped an unpaid board
bill of $40, due to Mr.. Schwartz.
The young mans parents live near
St. Louis and are said to be in good
circumstances.

with stealing S2S from John Jones
Saturday night and who was over
taken aud arrested at Parsons Kansas,
while on his way to Texas, was brought
back to Sedalia last night and lodged
in Jail where he will remain until the
grand jury returns a bill, that body
being now in session.
Elvins is a young man, or rather
boy, about Is or 20 years old and his
offense may be attributed to ignorance
rather than depravity.
He tells the following story. His
father lives at Doe Run Missouri, and
is not only wealthy real estate
owner but largely interested in mines
there. His father wanted him to at
tend another term of the business col
lege at this place and the boy did not
want to do 30. He says that draft
was due from his father and so he
conceived the idea OF borrowing what
money Jones had and going 10 Texas.

In such a transaction. The train he
took here only runs as far as Parsons
and he was waiting there for the
regular Texas express. Officer
Fifer happened 10 be on
board that train and caught his man.
Elvins made no resistance and came
back without tine necessity of waiting
for reqIisition. The officer found
$10.10 on Elvin's person. Hon. w.

ell for the defense, and this morning
