Grnndview the Place and the Loca-
ton of the Pest House the Cause.
KANSAS CITY, Kan, March 29.-The
health officers of this city experienced
a riot today at Grandview, a suburb lying
west of the city. Yesterday they leased
a tract of land near Grandview upon
which to build pest house to shelter two
smallpox patients whom they have on
their hands This morning several wagon
loads of lumber and a big force of car
penters were dispatched to the tract to
begin work. Soon after the arrival at
Grandview the residents of the suburb
began to assemble in neighboring field
After the carpenters had erected the
frame work of building twenty-four by
thirty feet in dimensions, a mob of 200
people bore down upon the proposed pest
house. Many of the men were armed
with guns. They were urged on by a
number of women. The carpenters obeyed
the orders of Che leaders to stand aside
The mob of angry citizens then attacked
the building, RACED the frame work, tear
ing the timber piece from piece and
scattering the lumber over ten acre
field. The carpenters and teamsters were
told to return to the city, and did so
Tonight the health authorities are look
ing for another site for their pest house.

the month of May, 1897. The appoint
ment as select preacher to one of the
great English universities never has been
conferred before upon bishop or priest
of the American. church so far as the
records show. The morning sermons on
Sunday in term at Oxford fall to the dean,
the canons, the heads of the several col
leges, the divinity professors and the
professors of Hebrew. None but the most
eminent clergymen holding the high de-
grees from the universities in Great Brit
am ever IS appointed to the office of
select preacher. Bishop Potter holds the
uegrees of doctor of laws from Cambridge
and is one of the three American clergy
men who holds the degree of doctor of
divinity from Oxford

1T Involves Serious Charges Against
Prominent People of Colorado.

Prominent People of Colorado.
NEW YORK, March 29.-The World to-
morrow will publish the following; Pa
pers viii be filed today in the United
States circuit court in a suit. in which
the plaintiff is Kittie A. Griggs. wife of
Clark Robinson Griggs, a wealthy rail-
road contractor of this city. Mrs. GrigCs
sues for Sl50,000 damages against John r
Campion, Mason b. Carpenter and
Charles Lavender, all of Colorado.
Campion is interested in some of the
biggest gold mines in Colorado. Cav
ender and Campion are Denver LAWYERS
They are charged with conspiring to de-
fraud the plaintiff out of a [hree-eifrhts
interest in mining property said to be
worth $490,OcO According to the affidavits
1000 acres of valuable gold bearing land
in Colorado were owned and worked in
1856 by Mr.. Griggs, Amos Tenny William
Iudson, Alfred K. Ware and Mason 3
Carpenter In 1887 Carpenter said he could
sell the property 10 John Farwell the
Chicago millionaire, for s10O00OO. Ar
engagements were made by which the
deeds were turned over to the new cor
pcrarion known as the Victoria Mining
company Carpenter, ii is alleged had
himself elected president and EMPLOYEES
elected to the other offices. The new COM
pany held all the valuable mining pro
perty, but according to Griggs none of

pion. AT the expiration of that time, the
deed was foreclosed and the property
sold to Campion for $34,S74. The trans
action was not recorded. il is alleged,
for some time after the sale, and Griggs
did not learn about it until Carpenter
wrote to him to say the property had
been bought in by general mortgage
and that be, Carpenter and Griggs had
lost ALL Griggs went to Denver and found
the mining property was being success
fully worked by a new corporation known
as the Wapiu Mining company, Of WHICH
penter is said 10 have one-eighth in
ferest. Grggs had long before transferred
his interest in the mining property to his
wife, hence it is she who makes the COM
plant.
