A Pair OF Them on a Freight Platform
Touched by Pistol Shots.
A white man, giving the name of James
Leddy was taken to the st. Joseph's Infirrn-
AIRY at o'clock yesterday with pistol shot
wound in the calf of his left leg. Leddy's
story is that he and his partner Barney"
had walked from Charleston and were
coming into the city along
lay down on a freight platform alongside
the Savannah, Florida aud Western rail-
way about N on and went to sleep. They
were awakened by volley of pistol shots
and Leddy received a ball in the leg and
his partner was grazed on the knee. Teddy
says that the negro that shot him exclaimed
as he fired, That's the way
to wake 'em up" The tramps
dropped off the platform into a
ditch and made tracks, followed by a shower
of bullets. There were about six men in
the crowd, SO Leddy says His story may
be true or it may be a fabrication to ac-
count for a wound received while robbing
a hen roost or a truck patch.

THE GRAIN MARKET ACTIVE.
A Shortage In the Corn, Oat and
Wheat Crops

W neat crops.
The grain market is strong and prices are
steadily advancing, especially in corn. The
crop reports from the west are very un.
favorable to the corn crop, caused by the
drought in all of the corn producing states
of the west.
1t seems to be reasonably certain now
that there will be shortage IN this years

amount of the old crop carried over to
counterbalance the deficiency.
There is also a short oat and wheat crop

Warrants sworn out By ward-Great Meet

Warrants sworn out By Wmd-Great Meet
Ing at the Opera House Excitement In
tense.
LArHRor, Mo, Feb. 1.-THE excite
ment in this city over the women's
crusade Of Friday afternoon against the
only two saloons In town is in
creasing. While a majority Of the cit
liens side with the women there are a
number who disapproye OF the measures
adopted and bitter feeling has been
engondered which years will not oblit-
crate The mass meeting Of citizens
held yesterday afternoon only intensi-
fed the bitterness. The opera house was
crowded.
While men, women and children were
shouting at tho opera house over the
resolutions denouncing the liquor traffic
and indorsing the crusaders, Thomas
Ward, the proprietor Of one OF the
raided saloons, swore out an affidavit
charging nine men and forty-fiye women
with riot and Prosecuting Attorney
Cross declares that this makes IL his
duty as an officer to prosecute them. lie
will have them arrested,
The women seem prouder than ever
OF their achievement and the four min
listers who made speeches yesterday
spoke Of their action as the action OF
angels from Heaven" The local
photographer was again on hand and he
took another group picture Of the
angels" whom the prosecuting attor
ney declares will be arrested.
The mass meeting was extensively
advertised From nearly every pulpit
in the eastern part of tho county 1t was
announced. Rev. W. A. Crouch, Of
Turney, who is an apostle for all the
Baptists in this section Of the county,
was invited to address the gathering and
so was James NJ. Bohart president of
the First National Bank of Plattsburg
and formerly Of Lathrop.
The proposition TO move on Platts-
burg has been rescinded because Of the
advice Of wiser heads, and the women
who formed the band OF crusaders ex-
planned at yesterday meeting that they
only intended TO do this In case they
were arrested.
Affairs In this community are APP
preaching a crisis which the citizens do
not seem 20 appreciate. The prosecut-
ing attorney Is a man OF pronounced
convictions and can not falter without
showing the white feather. A petition
will unquestionably be presented him
asking him tI resign, and to this petit
tion he will pay no attention whatever.
Cross has nany friends and Ward, the
saloonkeepor, also has a following.
The arrests may not be made until
excitement somewhat subsidies
