HASN'T HEARD OF IT.
Grand Master Sargent Knows
Nothing of a Strike.
Does Not Believe There is Any
thing in 1t.
COULDN'T AFFORD IT.
Wabash Would be Foolish to
Discharge Brotherhood Men.
Besides Brotherhoods Didn't
Join the A. r. q. Strike.

PEORIA, ILL.,. Sept 25-F. P. Sargent,
grand master of the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Firemen, says he has no in
formation whatever of any attempt on
the part of tbs Wabash railroad to get
rid of members of the brotherhood, or of
those of any other organization and he
does not think there is anything in the
report to that effect
He thinks the Wabash would be very
foolish to attempt anything of the kind,
and has no excuse for it. He calls at
tention to the fact that during the A. r,
U. strike these organizations refused to
join in it, and therefore the Wabash and
other roads ought to entertain good will
toward them.
He declared emphatically that all
efforts to crush out these old-line or
CARNATIONS Wonld be in vain. The men,
bers as a rule acted like honorable men
and they should not be held responsible
for any mistakes a few individual mem
bers might make.

A GRAVITY RAILROAD.
One Proposed Between Leav-
enwOrth and Kansas City.
Is to Carry Coal From the
Leavenworth Mines.
OTHER STATE NEWS.
Residents of Hiattville Punish a
Stingy Man by Boycott.

LEAvENwoRTH, Sept. 25.-An effort is
soon to be made to revive the project of
constructing a railroad from Kansas
City. Kan, to the Leavenworth coal
fields The enterprise was under dis
cussion in 1890, and for time it seemed
that the plans of the projectors would
be realized, but the money furry in the
east and the consequent depression in
western securities caused it to be aban-
doned.
1t is now said that if local company
can be formed, with the right kind of
backing, there would be no difficulty
in securing the amount of money neces.
sary to construct and equip the road.
The mine operators would lend their as
sistance to the company, and with some
encouragement from manufacturers,
packers. and large consumers of coal,
it could be operated with profit
A survey of route was made some
time ago over the uplands between the
Missouri and Kaw rivers, which would
give short line to the mines here. The
grade toward Kansas City by this route
would be an easy one, and all the motive
power required would be what was ne
cessary to control the speed of the heavy
coal trains

Cheyennes Far Remind.

Among the Indians the ghost dancer
frequently assumes prophetic attri-
butes, bewildering the tribe with his vat
donations and causing no end of dis
order and confusion. Among the Chey-
ennes of Northern Montana, two of
these recently appeared, one bearing
the name of Porcupine and the other of
Howling Wolf, both claiming to be in
spired by the divine spirit, and distrib-
uting their cIamorous and disorderly
proclamations among their people with
as much profusion as the one animal
might distribute its quilts and the other
it's mutations. But neither of them
possessed the prophetic obstinacy OF
Mahomet, and the level-headed army
officer in charge Of the reservation
found little difficulty in weaving them
from their decisions and persuading
them to go to work at day wages, an
occupation much more useful to them
selves and their people. The Chey-
ennes have made little progress in in
dustry and civilization, though they are
not without aptitude in these direc-
tons, which proper supervision will de-
velop, result which the squelching of
their tribe Messiahs will not tend to re-
tard.

Mrs. selig Gives Hers up to Secure Her
Husbands Fine.
CHICAGO, Sept. 25.-Mrs Frank Selig
showed her love for her husband in a
novel manner yesterday. Selig had
been fined five dollars for disorderly
conduct. He had no money, but said he
could borrow that amount if he
was allowed to go out and see his friends.
The police would not allow him to go
from the station without security tor his
return.
"Here, take this as security" said Mrs.
Selag, as she placed her three months,
old babe in the court bailiff's arms. Mrs.
Selig then hurried out of the sta
ton, saying she would not
call for the baby until
her husband had secured money to pay
the fne.
She did not return, and as the baby
began to cry soon after she left, it was
taken to an orphan asylum. Later in
the day Selig's fine was suspended and
last night he and his wife went to the
asylum for their baby.

MEANS CHEAPER FLOUR.

a Deep Waterway TO the Coast is the
OnIy Way to Get 1t.
CLEVELAND. Sept, 25.-At the opening
of the morning session of the deep-water-
ways convention today. a partial report
of the committee on credentials was sub
mitted, indicating the presence of $50
delegates from fifteen states and provin-
ces.
The address of L. r. Hurd, manager
of West Superior, was along the line of
his own business experience. After
calling attention TO the low prices re =
sulting from foreign competition with
cheap grain, he said cheap flour was what
people wanted, and to sell wheat flour
against foreign competition we must be
in competition to give better -four than
can be brought for the same money from
other sources
No further reduction of price to the
farmer is possible. The cost CT making
-four has in recent years been re-
duced to the minimum. The only
hope then is in cheap transporta-
ton. With the completion of a channel
twenty feet from the Great Lakes to the
Atlantic seabeard, two distinct and de-
cided advantages over the present con-
ditions will prevail, namely a reduction
of the cost of transportation from lake
ports to the Atlantic seaboard and to
Europe and greater despatch.

Wheat-There was a strong market at
the opening this morning. December
ranging so to 61 At the advance the
market met deluge of selling order and
it was not stout enough to absorb the
food pressing for sale. Cudahy, Bros
seau and Linn al had wheat for sale.
The strength had prime cause, the fight
now going on between the warehouse
men and the board, and in which the
board has secured a semi victory be-
cause numerous of the elevators have
been made irregular. The Liverpool
cables came strong enough this morning,
but the later ones were a source of dis
appointment to investors, as the advance
on the other side was not maintained nor
was the improvement sufficient to
put the market in line with
us Another = drawback to the
maintainence of higher prices in the
local market was the lack of cash de-
mand. As to the seaboard, some nibbles
was reported and about eleven loads
were reported committed for export but
nothing out of the ordinary line devel-
oped during the session in this regard.

DELAYED, BUT GOT THERE.
The Santa Fe Early Plug Had Variety of
Engines.

It took three engines to haul the
Santa Fe plug from Topeka to, Kansas
City yesterday morning, and then the
train was over two hours late in reaching
the union depot. This was a most I'M
usual occurrence, and it seemed as if the
fates were against that particular train.
The first accident occurred near Wilder
when one of the eccentrics on the engine
got out of order. BY using one side of
the engine the train was pulled into Hol-
liday, where a new engine was secured.
The Holiday engine pulled the train
into Argentine all right, but when the
engineer attempted to start, the steam
went out of the smoke stack and not
wheel would turn. A third engine was
secured, and pulled the Holiday engine
away from the train aud then took the
train into Kansas City.

Allotment Law
HoLToN. Kan. Sept 25.-Poor Lo and
his squaw and papooses, in fact nearly
all the Indians of the Pottawatomie
reservation were in Holton yesterday af-
ternoon holding a pow-wow over the
land allotments. They think they have
a grievance and they are divided among
themselves.
the non-citizen Indians object to the
allotments on the ground that the citizen
Indians are given an unfair advantage,
the latter's children being allowed equal
privileges with the formers. They also
object to the Frederick bill, which pro-
vides for the sale of the surplus lands.
Although they could not be under
stood, considerable enthusiasm was
manifested during the course of the
pow-wow. BY invitation, J. B. Bottineau.
an attorney of Minneapolis, Mimi, was
here to listen to their grievance. They
can do nothing, as there is now no re-
course.

FURNISHING A sTrNGY MAN.

NJ. K. s. T. Agent.

The People at HiattvIl1e BOycOtt the
Nj. K. s. 7. Agent.
FIT SCoTT, Sept. 25.-A peculiar state of
affairs exists at Hiattville, a little town
ten miles south of here on the N. K. s. T.
railroad, over the boycotting of the rail-
road agent by the citizens of the village.
The boycott is not against the road but
against the agent personally, and was
brought on by the agent himself by his
selfishness.
Sometime ago a celebration was ar
ranged for, and the agent was about the
only one who refused to help the propos-
cd meeting along. A few days ago. when
a child of poor family died subscrip-
ton paper was circulated among the
business men for the purpose of giving
the child a decent burial. Again was
the agent approached, and TO the sur
prise of those having the list in charge,
he was the only one asked who refused
to contribute his mite.
This settled it with the people. They
decided he was too sfingy to live in their
city, aud it was decided to boycott him.
In order TO do this quite a system has to
be worked.
The greater part of the passenger traf-
fic from that place is to this city. The
agent receives certain per centage on
all the ticket sales, but during the last
few days the sales have been very few,
as the scheme is being well worked.
Whenever a citizen of Hiattville comes
to the city he upon starting home pur-
chases a round trip ticket from this
city. Upon his arrival home be takes
the return stub to one of the stores,
where he receives full value for it, and
the ticket is then sold to the frat person
wishing to come to this city. In this way
no fab ia IF
mission and the office in this city is en-
joying an increased trade in ''round trip
to Hiattville." as quite number are sold
