 Woman AND DARING TRAIN R0BBER Thought to Have Been Implicated in the Bold Hold-Up at Macomb,
 Mo.-One of the Jonas
 Gang.
AND DARING TRAIN ROBBER

Kansas City, Mo-, January 1o.-John Ken nedy, often suspected of train robbery and twice tried for that offense and now under indictment for the murder of Emma Schu- macher, grocery woman, whose store he helped to rob, was arrested in this city today, charged with complicity in the rob bery of the Kansas City, Fort Scott and Memphis passenger train, which was held up near Macomb, Mo-, last Tuesday night.
 kennedys arrest occurred two hours after a detective agency had flooded the town with handbils offering $500 for his arrest. The reward was offered jointly by the railroad company and the Southern Ex- press company, whose through safe was dynamited by the robbers. Kennedy hal just returned to the city and his lawyer claims he had been to Texas to place a mortgage on his farm there. The police say he came to see a woman, to whom he is engaged. Five men are now under arrest al Mansfield, Mo, for complicity in the Macomb robbery and the officers say three of them have confessed, and in their con- fession told that Kennedy was the organ izer and leader of the robbery.
 One of the men, known as Jennings, IS
 
 train robber, Bill Ryan, who was a member of the famous gang of outlaws led by Jesse and Frank James. At Mansfield today a roll of bills amounting to s2s4 was found sewed in Jennings clothes.
 Another of the robbers, Elmer Byrum, told the Mansfield officers today where they could find $500 in money and two watches, which the robbers had hid, and the booty was recovered.
 Kennedy was out on bond in the Schu- macher murder case He was twice tried for leading the Alton robbery at Blue Cut, near here, in 1896, when $S2000 was secured The first jury disagreed and the second re- turned a verdicL of acquitta At the time stories of perjured witnesses and bribed jurors were common.
 Jesse James, Jr., son of the noted ban dit, with whom Bill Ryan made many raid, will be tried here on next Monday on an indictment charging complicity in the robbery on a Missouri Pacific train at Leeds, Mo-, last Septemer. Kennedy and young James are good friends.

NEW ROAD.
Chattanooga Rapid Transit Company
 Granted Charter.

Atlanta, January 10.-The Chattanooga Rapid Transit company was granted a charter today by Secretary of State Cook and work on the road will be begun at once.
 The company is organized by Georgia and Tennessee capitalists and the capital stock is $125000, which it is said will be increased to half million as soon as the amount is needed.
 The road, which will be operated for freight, will also be used as a pleasure re- sort line and will run through the military park at Chickamauga, the Georgia end Of the road being at Rossville.
 The primary object of the road is to make accessible the mining districts in the north western part of the state. Heretofore in order to reach Walker county and the Dade county coal mines it has been necessary to go quite long distance out of the way costing much more in transportation and causingn a considerable loss of time.

BEEF PLENTIFUL.
Germany is Not Suffering From Meat
 Famine.

Berlin, January 10.-The reichstag re- assembled today. Count Von Posadowsky Wechner the secretary of the interior and representative of the chancellor, arguing an interpolation, averred that the alleged scarcity of meat in Germany was un- founded.
 He added that the price of beef was about the same as usual though the cost of pigs and pork had risen in some places to notable extent. Nevertheless, the secretary pointed out, the supplies of meat kept pace with the increasing demand, and had so in- creased that importation was unnecessary. The supply of cattle was adequate, and therefore prohibitive measures against im- portation must be maintained in order to prevent the introduction of disease.

The Senators and Phillies INDUCED in an
old-time smuggling match in the Quaker
city yesterday, the latter winning by the
score of IS to 10. Jack Fifield, late Of the
Phillies was engaged by the Washington
management to help out the Senators
pitching staff and he sent in against
his late companions. Sentiment was buried
for the afternoon. and Jacks curves were
used as happy medium to boost the bat
ting averages of the Quakers twen-
ty-one hits for a total of twenty eight
bases being the sum total of the PhillieS
smuggling for the day. Delehanty, Chiles
and Goekel especially took kindly to FL
fields delivery, each of these players hav-
ing four safe hits to his credit on the day.
Donahue, who was on the rubber for the
Philies. also hit hard, but his support
was of the sensational and lucky order,
which prevented the Senators from getting
enough runs to win. the two misplays of
Lauder at third not being of the costly
order. Back of Fifield the Senators were
''groggy, six errors coming their way,
and Stafford bagged three of these.
While the crowd enjoyed the hitting of
the locals still there were few features
outside of the slugging that were worthy
of exciting enthusiasm. By far the best
play Of the afternoon was a wonderful
running one-hand scoop by Della hanty in
the seventh inning, which he caught
Stafford at the. plate by quick. hard
throw. The second out of this same in
ming made by Goeckel by an excep-
tionaly brilliant catch of a foul fly which
he overran. but, turning quickly. caught a
few feet from the ground.
After the Phillies had accumulated
enough runs to make the game sure. Dona-
hue eased up perceptibly in his pitching,
and allowed the Senators to make a few
runs. The scores made off him in the
fourth. however, We're the result of good
hitting, when Donahue exertng his
best efforts. The score:

reduced by the blue pencil to only three

was practically a match between the IA

The best race of the day was the ZIG

chestnut mare Precision was the favorite
at $40 to $50, the field end believing that
the gray gelding Surpol could win. They
were justified by the result, as Surpol won

BOWLING.
Officials of the District League Will
Soon Meet to Organize.


A meeting of the District Bowling League
officials will be held at Carroll Institute a
week from Friday night For the purpose of
organizing for the approaching season. The
membership of the league will be some
| what differently constituted than at the
close of last season. The Washington Ath-
| letic Club is apparently hopelessly out of
| every line of athletics, and will not likely
| be revived.
The Columbus have no alleys in their
| present club house on II street, and while
| all of the members of last years team are
| enthusiasts on bowling, it is not thought
| possible for them to make satisfactory ar
| rangements for the use of other alleys
| though most of the team will be active in
| the game with other organizations. Many
! rumors have been af1oat in bowling circles
as to the possibility of the Saengerbund
| withdrawing from the league before the
opening of the new season. Regrets at
the prospect, the strong work Of the
German team has always reflected credit
on the league, have been freely expressed.
While some of these reports have had
slight foundation in fact, it Is now nearly
certainty that the Saengers will again
take up their work in the league.
Invitations have been extended to new
organizations to meet with the league dele
gates at the session next week, among
these being the Young Mems Christian AS
ISOLATION. The association bowlers have
eACeHeHt dlleys, are pIoOdDly III
as good a position to select a strong team
any Of the older members of the league.
They have large and enthusiastic bowl
ing contingent. and would without doubt
make a creditable showing. During the
summer very fine pair of alleys have been
constructed in the vicinity of the Capitol,
and club has been organized to play
upon them and 1t Is stated will apply
to the league for admission. With possibly
ether newcomers to hear from and the old
reliable Carroll Institute five, and that
hustling infant, the South Washington
Business Mems Club, it is likely that a
frst-class bowling league will again be in
the field this winter.
