ELEVATOR TALK.

Mr.. Thomas F. McEnnis of Dallas, vice
president and general manager of the Dali
las Elevator company. was in the city yes
terday, en- route for home, having finished
prospecting tour. The object of his visit
was to look over the ground and size up
the prospect for building an elevator in
Kansas. In an interview Mr.. McEnnls
said the report he would make to the COM
pany would be the most favorable so far as
Wichita was concerned, and he thought it
probable that it would be a good idea to
build another on the gulf to operate in
connection. His modesty would not per
nit him to say what the probable action OF
the company would be in regard to his re-
port.
1t seems that the object of his first visit
to Kansas was to buy grain for the Dallas
Elevator company. In conversation with
Mr.. E. 3. Ebert, the idea of building an ell
evator in Wichita first took possession of
his mind, and he at once began a CORES
pondence with his company in relation TO
the matter The result of this was that he
began to make systematic canvass OF the
field and, thus far, the developments have
only fostered and strengthened his
original idea. The idea is to make
chain of elevators extending
to the deep water on the gulf and thus the
business which has been looked forward
to as something for the future will be real
lied at once and the natural business con-
nection between Kansas and the gulf,
which has been made an argument in fav-
or of deep water, will be at once establish
ed. Mr.. McEnnis has made the most con-
servative figures on the subject and thinks
it will be profitable scheme provided 1t
would not pay for the first year or two.
Those who are intimate with the Kansas
grain interests and the needs of an elevat-
or, however, can never be induced to figure
on any loss at all, even the first year.
While in St Louis Mr.. McEnnis discussed
the matter pretty generally and feels con-
fident that the grain men of that city
would not require a second invitation to
take stock in the enterprise provided there
is any opening for them. The elevators
will be run on the storage system and the
rates made so low that the profit and adj
vantage TO the first buyer of grain Is evil
dent without any figures. 1t is said by
grain men in favor of the enterprise that
no one has any more idea of what the ex-
tent of the grain market will be in Wlchl
ia after the establishment of a chain OF
elevators than any one had regarding the
hog market before the packing houses
were built They claim that the results
that will follow his enterprise will be
more gratifying snd astonishing than the
present outlook for the packing interests

We were permitted to make a few ex-
tracts from a letter written by one of the
lady excursionists, who left the city over
the Santa fe route, which is dated, Boston,
in which she says: Our trip down the
st. Lawrence was delightful; the day was
cloudy. which added to the pleasure. We
arrived at Montreal, found the berths in
our car ready for us. Leaving that city az
, a. m, thus getting US into the White
mountains for breakfast at Island Pond.
That whole country is delightful; we
caught a glimpse of Mount Washington,
but the mists had not rolled away and
we could not see distinctly. On our ar
rival at Portland we found a good steamer
and, after pleasant voyage with no sea
sickness in our party, we arrived here, safe
and happy, without any accident or casu-
atty on our trip. The bay at Portland is
magnificent There are many summer
homes on the island; ii seems that this
whole country is one vast summer resort,
but. in the winter, ugh, l can shiver when
l think of its snow-bound hills. We Will

Messrs. c. P. Fullington and o. j.
Greenleaf ranchmen OF kiowa, were in
the city last night on business They said
they read the EAGLE, and noticing that SO
much was going on in Wichita they. came
up occasionally TO see about it. During
this visit they found everything as repre-
sented and could see material for year
ahead. Mr.. Greenleaf was particularly
struck with the width of Douglas avenue
and the recent improvements, and had
some figures with him by means of which
Wichita might be compared very favora-
bly, with other cities of much more adj
vanced age. Both gentlemen travel con
siderable and are quite observing. Mr..
Greenleaf's strong point in his arguments
is figures (being related to the man that
made the arithmetic, and Mr.. Burlington
is the best corroborator in the country.

HIS BROTHERS. WIFE.

Yesterday morning Sheriff Gibson, Of
Winfield. arrived in the city with war
rant for Hiram Sutton, a young man
probably 81 years of age, hailing from
South Haven, Cowley county. He was
charged with clipping with his brothers
wife, and the circumstances in the case
are of such a nature as TO make the whole
affair almost incredible. Sheriff Gibson
said that no one could understand 1t with
out knowing they Dung mans record
About a month ago his brother
James Sutton, who also lived
in South Haven. was taken sick and
during his illness the family was reduced
almost TO restitution. There are four
little children who are left behind in the
care of their sick father. This young man
and Mrs. James Sutton deliberately went
TO Arkansas City. where ali trace Of them
was lost. II appears that they came 70
Wichita, where he secured work on the
streets and she did some dressmaking-
They took rooms in a block on West
Douglas. and with their united income
managed to live in pretty good style In
the meantime the sick husband has been
doing his best to find them, and it was
only Yesterday that the authorities man
aged to locate them. For the sake of the
children the father is willing 10 make any
sacrifice, and will even receive the erring
wife back for their sake. At present she
Is left TO do as she pleases and as yet does
not seem determined as 20 what course TO
pursue. Sheriff Gibson took his prisoner
back Immediately to Winfield, where the
warrant was sworn out for him.
