AN AWFUL TRAGEDY REPORTED
Inquiry Fails to Substantiate the story of
Editor Bransconlb's Death.

Topeka, Kan, April IA special
from Wellington, Kan, says: One OF
the most awful tragedies ever enacted
IN the state occurred at South Haven,
this county. Editor Charles Brans-
comb, Of the South Haven New Era.
was MORALLY wounded in a shooting
scrape between 4. a. Richards Of the
Wellington Daily Mail. and Robert ST.
mons, editor Of the Caldwell News He
died this afternoon. No arrests have
been made.
Simons and Richards have been car
rying on a bitter newspaper war and
they by chance met at the South Haven
depot. Words arose over a recent es-
pec!ally severe article in the Mail. They
both drew revolvers and began firing.
At the fifth shot Branscomb. who was
standing near by fell pierced by a ball.
