young men who were sent to Kansas by
an immigration bureau OF London, England.

are in Wichita without money. Their
nearest friend is p. Z. Burrough, the
British vice consul of this city. He has
received letter from them saying they
had made arrangements TO come here on a
stock train.
These men and dozens of Others who
were sent here are of good families In
England. They paid A. L. Atkinson,
president OF the International Immigration
Association, of London. $500 each, for
which he agreed to give them first-class
passage to Kansas and guarantee them
work on the farms for one year at So a
month the first six months and $40 q
month the last six months.
They were brought In the steerage O1
cattle boats to Montreal, where they were
met by an agent, who brought them to
Kansas and turned them loose to shift for
themselves.
Vice Consul Burrough will forward his
evidence 10 the English government and
have Atkinson and his immigration as
sociation suppressed. The Federal au-
thorities have taken up the case.
f. H. Simpson, one OF the young men
sent to Kansas by Atkinson, is in the city.
He is the son of the dean OF the Church
of England, in Lincolnshire, and is well
educated. When he reached Kansas he
was put to work for a farmer who paid
him nothing.
Fifteen young men who had been sent over
by Atkinson, arrived in Montreal last
Tuesday, and the agent there started for
Kansas with nine of them that day.
They reached st. Louis yesterday and
the intention was to arrest the agent there
for violating the alien contract law, but
he gave the officers the slip.

CANNON ON HIS ROOF.
The Driegs Gun Company sold Mr.. Cul-
len nice gun for $500 and took great
interest in the young mans fancies. He
represented himself TO he The captain OF
military company and thought he could
do the briggs people good down in yir-
ginia. and he was consequently supplied
with enough expensive literature TO stock a
library
In the nIedntime Cullen casually dropped
in and asked Mr.. briggs to step out and
identity Inn SO he could get cash for a
draft drawn on a rich uncle in St. Paul.
Mr.. briggs complied and the West End
National Bank gave him $40.
Subsequently, the following letter, which
is more than stlf-eXplanatory, was re-
ceiyed:
ST. Paul, December 10, 1894.
Charles Z. williams, Cashier,
West End National bank,
Washing ton, ID. c.:
Dear Sir: / herewith return protested

the young man. orlan c. Gu lien. his
nephew. has drawn a great many drafts

and when he knew they would not be
paid, as there was nothing at all due
him. and that lie has been told time and
lime again that such drafts would not be
honored. 1 can state that of my own
knowledge a very great number of drafts
of similar character have gone through
this hank for collection during the past
year, everyone of which, far as / now
remember. has fieen returned unpaid.
Very respectfully.

TO Cullen, Va, to demand an accounting
He found lie $500 gun mounted OH top of
the hotel, and was told by Mr.. Cullen
that he had found il very advantageous in

The next fancy of this erratic gentle
man Y as to purchase a yacht. There was
a lake about the size of a washtub near
his hotel, and he proposed to enlarge this

him 10 consult a roller skate manufac-
