DETAILED ACCOUNT
OF WEBB KILLING.
Outcome of a Personal Quarrel
With CityMarshaI CaIyird.
VICTIMS SON AN EYEWITNESS.

Osceola, Mo, Sept. 3.-The kill
ing of Recorder James Webb by
City Marshal Henry Calvird, which
occurred at late hour last night,
was the result of personal quarrel
of several weeks standing.
During the day they had quarrel
ed several times. Webb had been
drinking heavily all day and was
very quarrelsome. He had been
elected from the saloon once, which
seemed to increase his anger. Mar
shall Calvird told him the best thing
he could do would be to go home,
which Webb agreed to do. He was
assisted to his buggy by the Marshal
and his Is year-old son, Warren
Webb, and started for his home,
about a mile from town, where
anxiously awaited his wife and
daughter
Instead of going home, he made
his son bring him back to the saloon.
Shortly afterwards he met Calvird
on the sidewalk, and, it is claimed,
began abusing him, Calvird again
told him they had better let the
matter drop. Webb agreed and they
shook hands.
Oalyird asked some one near for a
match and walking few steps away,
lighted his pipe Webb turned and
called him q vile name. Calvird ask
ed him what he said. Webb repeated
it. T1en Calvird said:
This has gone far enough" and
pulling bis revolver, fired. The ball
entered jus. below the left eye and
lodged in the brain. Death was
instantaneous Warren Webb, the
son, who had been trying to care for
his father all day. was sitting On the
curling q few feet away.
Calvird, noticing him there, said:
Everybody stand back, and take
care of the boy. I don't want to
have to kill him, too" BE then
walked away.
Doctors Whaley and Sewers were
called and the body was removed to
the undertaker's, then to Doctor
Whaley's Office until daylight.
Sheriff Decherd summoned a Cor
oner's jury and an inquest was held.
Webb was a Mason and very pop
ular in political circles. and the
news of his death brings many citi
zens from surrounding towns.
After the shooting Calvird secured
a buggy and drove to Clinton, where
he secured the services of his broth

Question for Mckinley.

Chicago Democrat.
Those independent Republican
newspapers of New England some
times ask President Mckinley very
awkward questions.
In these days of Imperialism such
questions should not be asked by
any newspaper which leans at all
toward the republican side. But
New England editors have way OF
thinking their own thoughts and
when a question pops into their
minds they relieve the pressure by
popping the question to Mckinley.
Apropos of this phenomenon, the
following question in the ancient
rule of three occurs to the editor of
tee Manchester Union, who imperti.
nently asks:
If it takes 10000 men seven
months and S1OO,OO0,Oo0 to take
possession of 800 square miles of
the leland of Luzon, how many men,
how many months and how much
money will it require to take and
hold the whole island, consisting of
$1,000 square miles, for all time!
And after that calculation has been
made there is chance to figure as
to the whole area OF the Philippine
islands. of about $4,000 square
miles. The figures of such prob
lem may we'll make the American
taxpayer gasp"
But President Mckinley is too
busy dealing out glittering general
ties about the flag TO bother over
such a problem.
However, if he had the time to
work out the proper answer, admit
ting that his knowledge of the
ancient rule of three has not been
swallowed up by later and more alb.
sorbing studies in How to be re
elected" another problem would
face him much more difficult than
this little sum in arithmetic
Having discovered how many men,
how many months and how much
money it would require to opacity"
and ''assimilate" the $4,000 square
miles of the Philippine archipelago
he would then haze to decide what
the islands were worth after all.

Tremendous Corn Crop.

Chicago, Ill, Sept ALI previ-
GUS high records will be broken by
the corn crop production of the
United States of 1899. Only an
accident can prevent it. A canvass
OF the eight states which raise the
bulk of the corn of the United
States warrants an estimate above
that of 1896, which heretofore has
been the record, and there is much
in the advices received to justify a
prediction that the crop will ap-
proximate $500, 100000 bushels.
The fret corn crop of the country
to reach in round numbers 100000
bushels was that of 1885 Including
the crop now to be harvested, only
nine crops of 100000 bushels or
eyer have been produced.
