GENTRY-PATCHEN RACE
Forecast or Wiehits's NeetlnG at
Rochester " ".

In the great three-cornered match race
at Rochester. n. Y, last week, where the
Kansas bred PAGER. John r Gentry, beat
Joe Patchen and Searchlight. there was
an interesting chapter added to harness
horse history. II was a battle royal for
the championship honors at the lateral
gait and the son of Ashland Wilkes and
Dame Wood by Wedgewood showed once
more his speed and stamina by beating his
two rivals in straight heats. The event
at Rochester brought together not only
the recognized best horsemen OF the coun-
try. but letter from that section says Il;
seemed as IL every person in that part
OF the country was present. it being by
far the largest crowd that ever attended
a Rochester meeting. The fame OF the
horses iRsures a great attraction, and
Wichita viii see. on the day of the great
Gentry-Patchen race here. the biggest
crowd In the history OF the city.

SAID TO Be sweeney
Abductor of Gertrude Rainey
Seen at Salina.
GIRL WAS WITH HIM
Sheriff Means of Newton Is
After Them.

A clue to the whereabouts of Gertrude
Rainey and her alleged abductor, Jim
Sweeney, has at last been discovered Mrs
Rainey, mother Of the girl, was called to
Newton yesterday to consult with Mr..
Ainsworrh, city marshall of Newton with
regard to a clue which he has secured.
Mrs. RaIney returned last night in great
hope of soon securing her child. but at
a late hour had not been notified of an
arrest of the man and the girl
Sweeney and Gertrude Rainey are sup
posed to be at salina, and according to
the story carried to the Newton Officers,
the two have been seen several times to-
gether and Sweeney is said TO have talk
ed as IT, he was a permanent SEIZURE
there. Sheriff Means went to sahna
night before last, but had other business
on the way to SalIna and would not get
to look after Sweeney until late yesterday
afternoon.
The discovery OF the whereabouts OF
Sweeney and the girl was brought about
in an unexpected way. Last week num-
Der of junk buyers from Kansas City
were at SaIina, and in buying junk they
were offered a lot Of good brass which
had been stolen from a railroad company.
They did not buy the brass, but reported
the theft to the officers of the company.
who ordered them to buy 1t so they could
use them as witness against the theft.
MI. IL II a.
several days. In the meantime they had
driven down TO Newton, and there they
heard from the officers the story of the
abduction of Gertrude Rainey. They lis
tened to the description OF Sweeney and
his outfit and of the girl. and they re-
called having seen such man. OUTFIT and
girl at Salina. They had seen Sweeney
and the girl driving together two or three
times, and they said he had the old top
buggy and just such a rig as had been
seen at Newton. They also talked TO
Sweeney and had met him in the country
as he was driving around carrying on his
business of canvassing. 1t Is thought
that Sweeney is keeping the girl in the
country and only drives into town with
her occasionally.
Mrs. Rainey expects to hear today from
Newton or Salina and Is almost sure that
she will hear good news. She said last
night that the Harvey county officers put
a good deal Of reliance in what the junk
dealers told them about Sweeney and the
girl, and they will follow up the clew I'M
til they land Sweeney In jail.
Mrs. Rainey swore out a warrant for
Sweeney at Newton yesterday. and 1t was
forwarded to Sheriff. Means. The prose
cutting attorney changed the nature OF
the complaint from abduction to rape, for
the reason that IL he had made the war
rant on the charge Of abduction it could
not be served from Harvey county, as
the abduction took place from Great Bend
while there could be a good charge OF
statuary rape established at Newton.
The officers say that II they succeed
in getting Sweeney they can bring
charges enough against him to keep him
in the penitentiary a good part of his al
loted time in the land Of the living. All
OF his previous criminal record. they say
has come to light since the beginning OF
his last exploit

VERY BAD NEGLIGENCE
At Thirteenth street Bridge Nearly
Causes bad Accident,

Through the negligence of the workmen
at the Thirteenth street bridge, Mr.. Gold
stanft lad a very narrow escape from a
disastrous accident while driving out that
way. The workmen. 1t Is reported, had
taken up the floor Of the bridge and fall
ed to put out lights or barricade the
bridge before leaving It last night Mr..
Goldstandt was driving in a good jog
across the bridge. not knowing that the
floor had been taken up. His horse came
to the edge of the flooring and halted
suddenly just on the brink, and came
very near going over. Had he done so the
rig and occupants would have followed
and the occupants and horse would
doubtless have been killed. AS 1t was. It
is considered a very narrow escape. Mr..
Downing at the police station was noti-
fed of the condition OF the bridge and he
sent an officer out to barricade the bridge
in order to keep other teams on.
