LIABILITY OF A RAILROAD.
If 1t Allows Trespasxers on Its Prop
erty They Must He Protected
From Danger.

His legs were scaIded by the steam from
a Memphis switch engine as he was
passed it and for the damage he received
William p. Tinkham. a stockman, sued the
Memphis road for 81. 500. The trial of the
case was had in the circuit court yesterday
before Judge Gates.
The jury went out at 4 o'clock. but at S,
when court adjourned, had not returned a
verdict.
The engine stood on a track near the
Memphis shops under the bluff at the foot
of Seventeenth street. Tinkham used to
cross the tracks there on his way TO the
Live Stock exchange. On this particular
day as he was passing the engine the fire
man turned a cock to blow ont the boiler.
The hot water and steam poured out on
Tinkham's legs. He was so excited that he
did not run, but attempted to raise his UNI
brella to keep off the steam.
The contention of the railroad company
at the trial yesterday was that when Think
ham went to pass the engine he was tres
passing on the company'S property. He
knew the danger and took his chances and
II injured could blame no one but himself.
T1nkham'S lawyers, however. proved that
there was a flight Of steps that led down
the bluffs at the Memphis shops and that
hundreds of people used these steps every
Oay Tor q short cut across the railroad
tracks 10 and from the stock yards, and the
rallroad company had never attempted to
stop people from crossing there.
The court instructed the fury that II II
FOUND that the railroad company did allow
people 10 cross there it must protect them
IN crossing.

QUO WARRANT0 PROCEEDINGS.
Kansas City School Board Will Begin
n Friendly Suit Against the
WestDOrt Roard.

Judge a. NJ. Allen, C. L. V. Hedrick.
Frank S. Groves. Frank Henderson and r.
n. johnson, of the Westport school board,
and ]. V. C.. Karnes and Judge Ladd, rep
resent:ng the Kansas City school board.
met in the Library building at Westport
last night. and after a full consideration of
the complicated school situation agreed that
the Kansas City school board should at
once take the initiative In quo warranto
proceedings looking TO a test of the matter.
II was agreed that the name Of the attor-
used in the suit, and it was decided that the
president of each board should write him,
urging that he consent to the proceeding.
The suit is a friendly one. of course.
Mr.. karnes, In explaining the situation,
said the time was almost at hand when the
tax levies for the coming year had to be
made; that the Kansas City board would of
necessity have to issue bonds for the sum
OF from 100000 to $780, 900 to complete the
the, capacity of other, schools of the city,
Including Linwood. where the present ca
pacity would have to be doubled
He wanted no illegalitY to attach to the
issue of the bonds, and before they would
be taken as valid the present contentious
would have to be determined. There were
also some directors to be chosen at the
coming election, and as the time for 1t was
drawing near, prompt action was necessary
in order to give the necessary time in which
TO do the advertising and complete other
preliminaries. For this reason the plan of
a quo w%arranto proceeding direct in the
supreme court had been thought best.
az va ""o ullNloio "
union with the city schools. but decided
that Judge Allen should represent Westport
and that all questions necessary to be set
tied. including the validity of the recent
annexation election, should be raised, and
also the further question that if the annex
alton was legal did it carry with it the
Westport schools? In short. while no OBJ
lection is to be made to the form of the
proceeding. all questions affecting the le-
gality of the proposed union are to be
raised for decision. In order to provide for
all emergencies it was decided that the
Westport board should go ahead, maintain
its existence and make its tax levy as us
ual under the law. so that its schools would
not be left unprovided with means in the
event a decision adverse to union was rem
dered. The Kansas City board will go
ahead at the proper time and make its levy
as usual, with the exception that such levy
will embrace the recently annexed terri
tory: The WestpOrt boards relation to that
section of territory now represented by 1t
but not embraced in the annexation was
discussed and the decision reached that the
proposed suit had nothing to do with it.

Central High School Cadets Anxious
to Represent Kansas City at

The Central high school cadets have met
with a great deal of encouragement in
their effort to interest the business men

der military discipline. and when not Civ
ing exhibition drills. propose to spend their
time entertaining Kansas Cityans at head
quarters.
There are seventy cadets at the high
school, divided into two companies. They
are well equipped with rifles and the nee
essary cadet accoutrements.
The boys are enthusiastic over the uues-
ton. said Major S. E. Kelsey, their in
structor. yesterday. '"They are representa-
tive boys of the city. and make a fine show
Ing. They are well drilled, and would
show the visitors at the exposition that
Kansas City is thoroughly alive and up

building permanent camp grounds for the
accommodation of the national guard COM
panies that will be there. The cadets can
secure quarters on the camp grounds and
get their meals at the mess halls, making
the expense Of the trip comparatively
small"

that ii would be- safe for them to reopen
