ing force of eighteen of Webster, Kelso &
Dare,s men. Two surgeons and large
number of men were Immediately dis
patched to the scene of the disaster, which
was found to be far less serious than re-
ported. Twenty-four men were working
in deep cut on the road at 5 20, when the
slide occurred. Seven or eight got clear,
the Others being caught by falling bould-
ers and earth, and eight buried or thrown
into the Chehalis river. When the slide
had ceased the men went back to the res
cue. The injured were as follows:
NIKE KENT. bodily bruised and injured in
ternally, probsbly fatally.
PETER PETERSON, legs broken
DAN KEARN, leg broken.
ISAAC FAwCETT.
P. H. NELSON
Two UNKNOWN
Several others were slightly bruised
When the relief train arrived Time Keeper
Sheldon said all the men were accounted
for. Chief Engineer Marion and Con-
tractor Webster made a most careful in
vestigatlon of the scene of the slide, but
could find no other victims in the debris.
The men, however, claim that one if not
two men are still buried under a slide,
and say that the officials do not want to
admit that fatal disaster has occurred.
The cut is at the foot of q mountain l 900
feet high. The track is now, for distance
of 100 yards, covered with three to ten feet
of earth. About 10000 yards of earth must
be removed to repair the damage, which
amounts in the neighborhood of 81, 200.
This was the second slide today. The first
injured an Italian laborer seriously. Work
| on the road will be delayed three or four
days before communication can be estab-
lished with the other end of the line.

A BIG ELEVATOR MAN TALKS WICHITA.

Hon. Abner Taylor, congressman from
Chicago, Illinois, spent the other night in
the city as the guest of his old time friend,
Col. B. II. Campbell. Mr. Taylor, as is
known to many, is wealty capitalist, full
of plans and back of many enterprises, as
he is one of the best known grain elevator
men in the west. Mr. Taylor had been
down to Velasco, Texas, he being proba bly,
the leading spirit In the deep water and
harbor improvement at that point, in
which he and his associates have already
successfully expended several hundred
thousand dollars, obtaining up to date
seventeen and a half feet of water
by utilizing, through the Eads
Jetty system the waters of
the BraZos river in cutting away the bar
IN the bay front. Mr.. Taylor who is an
eminently practical man, as his success in
material things and business affairs has
long since demonstrated, in conversation
with the editor of the EAGLE on Friday
morning, unhesitatingly declared that
twenty-five to thirty feet of water would
soon be realized at Velasco when the in
terests and men with whom he is connected
would commence a move in the establish
ing of an export grain trade by way of the
gulf. Tue first thing that viii be done,
and that right away, is the construction
of grain elevators at Velasco through
which to load ships. Wichita being half
way between that point and Chicago by rail
and located in the midst of the greatest
grain section of the west, will in Mr..
Taylor's estimate, become an important
initial grain point with facilities for ship
ping either to the lake or to the gulf mar
kets at the same rate the quotation of the
two markets respectively being the decid
ing factor. He thought that quarter OF
a million bushel elevator might meet
Wichitas present demands but from his
talk he evidently believes there are big
things in store for Wichits as an initial
grain market, and that the commercial
ties between Velaseo and Wichita will be
very strong in the near future.

the 9th milestone in life's journey. Games
and impromptu plays were enjoyed until
the lunch was spread and to which all
done justice. At late hour the little
ones departed, each one feeling that it was
glorious thing to have birthdays and es-
pecially to receive as many nice presents
as did Miss Kitty.
The following were the names Of those
who attended: Fern Randall, Alma

are the guests of j. Oak Davidson Of the
Citizens. These gentlemen not only
know Wichita and of the country backing
US, but are interested friends WAC are out
looking over their holdings, which they
no doubt will find bearing more promis-
ing aud cheerful aspect, rs they will find
the trade of Wichita is from % to so per
cent and in some few cases hundred per
cent greater than one year ago. These
gentlemen in their call did not say how
long they would remain in the city. but
probably long enough to look it and its
affairs and interests all over.

A HUTCHINSON MAN ROBBED.

Tom McFarlane of Hutchinson. while
passing the alley on west Second street on
his way to the Missouri Pacific depot last
night, was accosted by two burly colored
men, who went through his pockets and
took therefrom $3.50 Mr.. McFarlane
didn't regret the loss, for the inside
pocket of his vest contained at the time q
pocket-book containing S120 in cash and a
check on the Wichita National bank for
$50. He described the negroes to the Of
ficers as one of them being slightly lame,
while the other was a half-blood who
wore good suit of clothes of light color
and plug hat. The officers think they
know the last described man and were red
hot on his trail last night.
