KANSAS Cry, Oct. 12.-The Union
Pacific Railroad to-day began forcible evic-
tons and the destruction of dwellings on its
right of way on the levees in Kansas City,
Kan. The evicted families are "squatters"
on the Union Pacific lands at The Point,
and have lived there for years unmolested.
Six of the houses of the squatters on the
right of way were torn down and scattered
in all directions. One engine, with con-
struction car attached, mass of chains and
ropes and about 20 men did the work. A
large heavy rope was run around the
houses, the other end of which was attached
to the train. When the engine started
there was crash, shower of splinters and
the house had disappeared. The place was
the scene of the greatest excitement. Most
of the shanties had been vacated for some
time, although the furniture remained in
two or three where owners refused to move.
