 Among those who were onthe blockad- ej train and arrived vesterdaY were Geo. F. Crane, from Dawson for Portlandi W. B. Coping. from Dawson for Vancouver, B. C., and Jesse Brown, froq Dawson for Seattle. Speaking jointly ai the MOnda- min of ,thelr experiences on the traln, they Said
 "We were permitted to eatat the section houses or commissarv stations, whatever thev are to b. called, that the railroad maintains, but we were called upon to pay for all meals out of our OSp pockets save the last two meals obtained. The road paid for the last two. Some of the bows were refused food at the station house first and there seemed to be no great Inclination to take the trouble to feed everyone of the blockaded partv At the Switchback sta- ton house refusal to feed tls hungry ap- pleants of the train was at aTst made, but after some barley the cooks turned to and prepared food.
 "Whlle this side of the Summit we were for a while In a place two miles from section house and with nS food aboard the train. The trainboy enterprislngly mushed back the two mlles through the storm tothe sesilon hu,,se.-4e eAa.hii. ard carried sandwiches and pie to the train. and gave very welcome relief. The prices were a little stiff, but no one of the passengers blamed the boy .lt was learned the keeper of the section house charged him SO much he had to tax the passengers what he did In Crier to gain some profit and he certainly was entitled to reward for the undaunted pluck displayed in get ting out in the storm. He charged dollar apiece for pies and 30 cents for sandwich with coffee. The coffee. he made at the train. When the train returned to lh' Summit the keeper Of the section hous' gave all food but the tralnboy, refusing him on the ground he had oyercharged the passengers. The passengers signed a pa per declaring they were not dissatisfied with the charges of the tralnbov.
 "At Bennett Monday the ifainmen told l us they would leave Monday night, anC kept US waiting in the cars until Q D. m They aid not leave that night but an nounced that they would leave ato a. m Tuesday momIrl lt was noon wheT | they did leave, We were I2 tavs m | Dawson to Bennett ana i~D5 i~m h.'Aet to Sklgwav."
 Chiet Train Displt-her Whiek say' orders were given by Supt. Rogeis to hav' the passengers on the bloekid:d trains cared for at the section houses and th men in charge of the trains were given or ders to see that the instructions were car ried out. and that is all he knows of th matter.

Harry Tandy Taken From Creek In Dying
Condition.

Harry Tandy Taken From Creek In Dying
Condition.
Mcfarland, Kan. June 3O.-In
Mill Greek, not far from the Rock
Island water tank at this place, a
tramp yesterday found the body of
Harry Tandy. The head and shout
ders were above water. On the right
side of the head was a frightful cash
and the base of the skull had been
beaten to pulp by a coupling pin.
He was alive when found and lived
until this morning without regaining
consciousness.
Letters in the young mans pocket
revealed his name and indicated that
his father lived at Craytop, Mo.
The father was notified and tele-
graphic description in response
established the murdered man 8
identity. MIR. Tandy said his son
Aau 6baE leu W DOht LIS way W
Wichita, where employment awaited
him. He had some money and a
gold watch when he left home. The
watch was gone when the body was
found and As cents was all the
money in his pockets, which justifies
the belief that robbery was the
motive for the crime.
Tandy was seen in company with
another white man at Mcfarland
late yesterday evening. Later they
were seen playing game of cards
with two negroes near the water
tank. Both of the white men were
fairly we'll dressed. The theory is
that the negroes murdered both
white men for their money and yalu
sbles. Mill Greek is being dragged
for many rods in both directions for
the body of the other white man.
The negroes have disappeared and
pesse is hunting for them.

Carbondale, ILL.,, June 30.-It is
reported that two negro miners
were killed and large number
wounded-one report says 20-at
Fredonia, six miles east of the city
on the Illinois Central Railway to
day.
Last night IS negro miners from
Pana arrived in the Williamson
county coal fields, where the union
men are on a strike.
This morning, when the imported
negroes were nearing the mines at
Fredonia they encountered large
number of white union miners an d a
parley ensued. It did not last long,
but was followed by several shots,
which soon grew into a general bat
tie.
Which side began the fight is not
known, but the negroes were driven
off, leaving two killed and about 20
wounded. One OF the persons killed
was a negro woman.

of the institution, each prisoner be-
ing stripped and bathed, hair cut
short and given shave. ALI marks
and full description of each was

Jefferson City, Mo, July 6.-Gov.
Stephens to-day named the following
persons the board of managers OF
the colony for the feeble minded

last legislature: John O'Dea, Spring

and George Robertson, Mexico. each
for a term of four years, and Mrs.

The appointment of this commit
tee appears to be favorable to
Springfield for the location of the
colony, as the law gives the board
of managers authority to locate it.
Springfield had a big delegation
here several weeks ago with Colonel
John O'Dea at its head, asking that
a committee favorable to that city
be appointed for the location of the
colony and as Col. O'Dea is named
as one of the members of the board,
it looks like Springfield has the de-
cided advantage for the location of
the colony
