KANSAS CRY, Mo-, Feb. 1O.-Ed Finley
Saturday afternoon at $40 o'clock shot
and killed Joseph Carr on Third street
near Grand avenue. Finley shot five
times. emptying the chambers of his
revolver, three of the shots taking effect,
inhicting wounds any of which would

Carr, who was released on bond
Thursday in the criminal court where
he was under indictment for feloniously
shooting John Williams. January IL,
was walking east on Third street from
Main in company with Mrs. Finley, wife
of Ed Finley. He was approached from
behind by Finley. who had hurriedly
followed the couple from Main street,
and it is said that Finley called out;
What are you doing with my wife?"
Finley claims that Carr then turned
threateningly half way toward him
and made gesture as il he were about
to draw pistol from his hip
pocket, although no pistol was
found on Cars body. Finley
then drew his own pistol and shot at the
man five times. At the second shot Carr
extended his arms and fell over the
curbing of the sidewalk into the street.
Finley then empticd the remaining
cartridges in his pistol at his PROSTATE
victim. Officer Harrington and Deputy
Marshal Ben ROSenthal hurried to the
spot and placed Finley under arrest. He
was taken to the central police station,
where charge of murder was preferred
against him. Finley is a member of a
family of gamblers. while Carr has an
unSavory reputation.

When a man is looking for wife it is
his mission. When he gets her it is his
submission.
During the last ten years the popula-
ton of New York, according to the esti-
mates of the health department, has in
creased about one-third, or something
like 400, OG0. That is, the gain in the
number of Inhabitants since 1850 has
been nearly equal to the whole popula-
ton of the town forty or forty-five years
ago. The proportionate increase in
Brooklyn is ESTIMATED to have been even
greater, or hard on one-half in the ten
years, and the population Of the towns is !
now probably 2,5O0,000.
The engagement ring is said to be
symbolical of how, after marriage, the

Reduced Scale.

CHICAGO, Feb. 9.-The Chicago. st.
Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha has given
notice that it will at once put into effect
a reduced scale of rates from the Mis-
souri, river to St. Paul on business des-
tined to New York, Boston and other
Eastern points. The proportions which
it proposes to adopt range from SIS cents
hundred pounds on first class to 20
cents on fifth class, and February 9 is
given as the day on which they will be-
come operative. The action is taken to
meet the competition of tho Great
Northern & Sioux City and northern
lines. This makes through rates from
Omaha to the seaboard via ST. Paul and
Canadian lines much lower than those
in effect via Chicago.

SkIps-
ST. LOUIS, Feb. 6.-Yesterday L. A.
Fuller, superintendent of the Pacific
Express Company, was notified by the
Commercial Bank of this city that q
package containing $751; in green
backs consigned to that bank by the
City National Bank, of Dallas, Tex, and
for which the Commercial Bank held
the receipt of the Pacific Express Com
pany, was missing.
February the City National Bank Of
Dallas RENTED TO the Commercial
National Bank of st, Louis the sum of
$4,000, of which $4,000 was gold in a
bag and $751; 900 in bills enclosed in a
regular express package. The gold was
duly received two days ago and deliv-
cred to the bank, which reported to Su-
perintendent Fuller that the gold was
only part of the remittance from the
City National Bank and that the bank
held two receipts-one for $4,000 and
one for SS5, 900.
On receipt of this information Super
intendent Fuller telegraphed Assistant
Superintendent Aiken at Dallas notify
ing him of the shortage, and asking him
to investigate and forward information
as soon as possible.
Mr.. Aiken's reply that there was no
trace of the missing package there fully
confirmed Superintendent Fuller's fears,
and with it came the additional inform
alton that the money clerk of the Dallas
office, young man named f. A. Wal
ton, had been missing since last Sunday
night
Walton's fight led to the belief at
Dallas that he must be defaulter, and
an investigation was at once instituted,
but without result, as the cash of the
Dallas Office was found to be intact.
When Assistant superintendent Aiken
received Superintendent Fuller's mes
sage it opened up new avenue for in
vestigation and the cunning scheme of
Walton to secure delay in the discovery
of his shortage was unfolded. He had
made out two receipts-one for SIS, 200
and one for $50, 900 on one bank. On the
duplicate forwarded to st. Louis, how
ever, no mention was made of the $685.
900 and it was not until the Commercial
Bank of this city had notified the Dallas
Bank of the receipt of but $4,000 of the
$4,000 that there was the least suspio-
ion of any thing wrong.
After pursuing this line of inquiry to
the Assistant Superintendent Aiken tel
egraphed as follows to Superintendent
Fuller: walton, our money clerk, has
taken S35, 900. He was with the Amer
lean Express Company at Iowa, Mich,
for five years. He came to US from
Wells, Fargo & Co. His father resides
at st. Joseph, Mo. Have traced him to
the Indian Territory and have detect
i've on his trail Agent Garrison leaves
for st. Louis tonight"
Walton is about twenty-five years old
and has generally led an exemplary life
heretofore.

The POpul9r Line

TO the East is the Burlington Route
(Hannibal & st. Joseph TailrOad). The
service by this line has been constantly
improved until it has reached degree
of excellence surpassed by none, and
equaled by few. The BurlingtOn'S
Ell" is probably the finest and most
popular train running between the Mis-
souri, river and Chicago, being solid
through VeStibule train OF Pullman
sleepers and free chair cars. Leaving
Kansas City, AtchiSon and st. Joseph
after supper, the passenger arrives IN
Chicago at 9:l5 in the morning. Hav-
ing taken breakfast on one c. the Bur-
lingtOn's world renowned dining cars,
he is ready for the days business, or In
ample time to make all Eastern con-
nectiOnS.
For the convenience of passengers
from Kansas City clip takes dining
car out of Kansas City on which east
bound passengers are served with a
supper which is equaled by few hotels.
The Burlington's st. Louis line,
though comparatively new, is becoming
better known and growing in popular
favor every day until it bids fair in the
near future to be the favOrite line be-
tween the Missouri river and st. Louis.
This train, consisting of through sleep
ers, chair cars and coaches, leaves Kan
sas City, AtchisOn and st. Joseph after
supper and puts the passenger in st.
Louis for breakfast, and ample time to
make all connections.
You are also requested to bear in
mind that the Burlington Kansas CITY,
st. Joseph & Council Bluffs r. R. is
the only line running through Pullman
Buffet SleeperS between Kansas CITY
and st. Joseph and st. Paul and Mime
apOlis. This is the short line between
Kansas City, st. Joseph and Omaha.
Through daily trains with sleeping and
chair cars.
In whatever direction you travel be
sure your tickets read over the Burling-
ton Route, thereby insuring yourself
the greatest amount of comfort, with
the least expense of money and time.
