THE BOYD MUDER CASE.
First of the Trials Results in Verdict of Murder in the Second Degree
 \ Sensational Case.

Hutchinson, Kas., Sept. 27.-E. C. Clark, prominent member of the Reno county bar, and who has been known to greater or less extent as a writer on economic questions, has been found guilty of manslaughter in the second degree.
 This is the first trial in the sensa. tionaI Boyd murder case. W. C. Boyd was murdered here, on May 19, in the restaurant of Mrs. Nellie Postlethwait. At the inquest it appeared that her oldest son, Harry, had committed the crime, but Mrs. Postlethwait made a sensational confession, in which she declared she herself had killed Boyd. Harry later confessed the crime, and said Clark had furnished the weapon and advised the killing. The state claimed as the motive that Clark and Boyd were rivals for the smiles of the attractive Mrs Postlethwait. The trial of Mrs. Postlethwait and her two sons will occur later

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
When and How Discharged Soldiers arc Entitled to Travel Pay From
 the Government.
Chicago, Sept. 27.-A Daily New

Chicago, Sept. 27.-A Daily News
 Chicago, Sept. 26.-A Daily News Washington special says Assistant Comptroller of the Treasury Mitchell has rendered an important decision, at the request of the secretary of the treasury that will facilitate the mus tering out of the volunteers and set ting their claims.
 The assistant comptroller holds that soldiers are entitled to travel pay from the place of discharge to the place of enlistment, and also if the soldier is discharged on furlough, ex- cept in cases where the distance is greater than the distance from where the soldier was encamped to the point of enlistment In that case he is en- titled to travel pay only from the point where his regiment was sta toned to the place of enlistment.
 Another matter settled by the deci- sion is that officers and soldiers dis charged at their own request are not entitled to travel pay. but where an officer or soldier resigns or is dis charged on account of sickness or wounds. then he is entitled to travel allowance, and such discharge or res ignation is not regarded as having been made for the convenience of the soldier.

MAY STRETCH THE LAW.
Soldiers of the Present War May be Ad- mitted to the National soIdiers'
 Homes.

Milwaukee, Wis, Sept. 27.-Soldiers of the Spanish-American war, when so disabled that they can not care for themselves, will be admitted to the national soldiers homes. Senator John L. Mitchell says that while the law provides that the national homes are for disabled soldiers of the civil war, some discretion is given the board of the managers of the homes in clause which permits such other soldiers to be cared for as, in the judgment of the managers, is deemed right. Under this ruling Senator Mitchell says that members of the regular army have been cared for at the homes until they could be trans ferred to the soldiers home at Wash ington, and he says it is his judgment that needy and disabled soldiers of this war will be cared for at these homes If they apply and room can be found for them.
 "It may be stretching the law It. tie" said the senator. "but 1t is in the interest of humanity"

TRAIN ROBBERY SUSPECTS.
The Three Men Arrested at St. Joseph, Mo-, Now Said to be Bank Rob
 bers from Iowa.

Kansas City, Mo, Sept. 27.-The hopes of the local police receive a dash of cold water when word from St. Joseph, unconhrmed, but apparently authentic, was received that the three men, James Morgan, John Ryan and James McIleer, arrested in that city Sunday night, were not the desired Missouri Pacific train robbers, but band of safe crackers from Iowa, who had just made a successful raid in that state The men, when arrested, had in their possession several hum dred dollars worth of powder-burned money, which the police quickly stamped as coming from the Pacific Express Co.'S safe, blown 10 pieces with dynamite, near Dawson, on Fri day night last. The statement that the men arrested were safe robbers was made by local detective who went to St. Joseph and saw the sus- poets. Chief of Police Hayes still hopes that the men are part of the gang of train robbers, and they will not be allowed to leave the state un- til the officials are thoroughly satis- fled on this point.
 1t is almost certain the men are the robbers of the Glenwood da.) bank, footed of $9,o00 last Wednesday night.

Grant, two members of a Montreal klondike syndicate, ar. rived here yesterday, after spending four months ill trying to get through to the gold country over the Ashcroft trail. At Quesnelle they met Sir Ar thur Curtis, an English baron, and his party, and also ran across them at Mud River, where Sir Arthur myste- riously disappeared, and was never seen by a white man again.
 Mr. Mills said they joined in the search with Indians for the body, and that they are confident that the latter not only know about the nobleman's death, but where the body might be found. They want $1,000 reward for bringing it out of the woods. The un- fortunate nobIeman, Mills believes, met with foul play.
 Mills and his party were lost four days without food 100 miles from Tel egraph Creek. On one occasion they took the advice of treacherous In- dian guide, and went 50 miles out of their way. They describe the expe- rience as terrible. They declare em- phatically that the route is fraud, and that hundreds of poor fellows are actually in danger of starvation on it now They are 50 and 100 miles apart, without provisions and without hope. Mills and Grant started out with 5s horses, and lost 90 head on the road. Their outfits were also lost, and when they reached Telegraph Creek they were broken in health and without mOneE.
