closE FUSION IN KANSAS.

 Democrats and popuiists Have United in
 Nearly All Legislative iistricts.
 TOPEKA, Kan. Sept. - -The Kan sas silver forces have fused in practi- cally all senatorial and representative districts. Joint conventions have been held in 35 of the 70 senatorial districts, and in only one instance did the att tempt to fuse prove fruitless. That was in the Thirty Ninth district There the silver forces have split. It is thought, however, that an arrangement shortly will be made whereby one of the can didates will withdraw. Fusion likely will be accomplished in the other four districts. Of the senatorial candidates named on the fusion tickets, % are populists, are democrats and ; are silver republicans.
 In 9S of the 125 representative dis tricts the silver forces have held their conventions, resulting in the nomina- tion of q fusion candidate in each. Within two weeks conventions will be held in the other P districts, and the indications are that fusion will take place in all Of the candidates for the house thus far nominated, 70 are popu- lists. l9 are democrats and are silver repu blicans

Walton, of BIS Oak street, brought her unhappy young life to an end Saturday night with dose of laudanum. She died, fieartbroken and alone, in the rear of a neighbor's house, the rash act not being com mitted until the failure of MissWalton' $ efforts to coax her recalcitrant lover to leave q ballroom, where he was en- toying the company of her rival. All night long her lifeless form lay on the cold earth, and was not discovered un- til Sunday morning, by Mrs. Mccoy, a neighbor. Duffy was subsequently, ar- rested, but was not held.

SITUATION VERY CRITICAL.
Decentralization of Freight Rates Exists All
 Over the West,

KANSAS CITY, Mo, Sept 22. The freight situation among western roads has never been worse in their history than it is to-day, and it is telling se- verely on their revenues. Each line is putting in reduced rates to secure business, and indications are that rates on all commodities of consequence will soon be down to bedrock. The tariffs issued arc failing in their revenues of the roads, and in the opinion of some of the conservative traffic officials of the western roads the only thing that will remedy the situation is action by the owners and investors in the roads and demand that the presidents take such action as will in short time put an end to the demoralization.
