Passenger Agents Discuss Handling
of Troops.
Mr.. H. c. McFadden. assistant general
passenger agent of the Plant System, and
Mr.. ]. C. Halle, general passenger agent
of the Central Railroad, returned yester-
day from Charleston. where they attended
a meeting of the general passenger agents
of the lines in the South interested in the
movement of troops from the winter camps
to Savannah and other points on the
coast. provided points other than this be
selected by the government as ports for
the embarkation of troops for Cuba.
The passenger agents wanted to make
division of the business. An agreement
satisfactory to all concerned, IL is said
was made. All movements of troops will
go over routes agreed to by the lines.
This Is an arrangement the general pas
senger agents are glad they were able to
effect as it will mean that every road
interested VIII get its share of the BUSH
ness. The roads will know just what is
coming to them, and there viii be none
OF the trying competition for che business
that would otherwise be in evidence.
The division of the business is not OBJ
Jected to by the war department. A rate
is made and accepted by the government.
and below this the roads, under the terms
of the division do not go in making their
bids on the transportation of a BODY OF
troops The plan has been worked for
some time with troops moved Ia the
South.

killing of young Cook and the shooting
of his father, as the examination shows
that thirty-two and thirty-eight pistols
were used
Albert Benson played a part in the bat
tie. At least he was a participant in the
row, and some suspicious rest on him.
but as yet it is not known who used the
second pistol.
Thomas Kemp came to Buena Vista this
morning and announced that he had killed
John Cook and fatally wounded his SON.
and said that they had attacked him with
knives.
For some cause deputy Sheriff / P. Blue
let Kemp drive around Buena Vista with
his pistol in his pocket and leave again
without holding him until the coroner
could have a jury 10 investigate, and to-
night the jury reached Buena Vista with
out finishing the case.
Sheriff Parker reached home on the
evening train and has gone tonight with
his aids to make an effort to capture
Kemp.
The men are all farmers and are well
known throughout the county.
