BABY HELD FOR DEBT.
Mother Appeals to the Police to Re-
cover Her Child.

Kansas City, Kan, Jan. 12--The very
odd circumstance of 2 human being,
and particularly a little 2-monrhs-old
baby, being held as security for the
payment of an alleged debt was related
to the police last night, when Mrs. Ollie
Strickland rushed into police head
quarters, and told the sergeant that her
baby had been seized by woman
named Mrs. Simms, with whom she had
been boarding at Second street and La
fayette avenue.
Officer Frank Miller went with the
mother to the home of the Simmses,
but found no one there, and a thorough
search of the locality failed to reveal
either the woman or the child. Mrs.
Strickland, who had made preparations
to leave the city on the II o'clock train
last night, was forced to postpone in
definitely her trip, and just now she is
shedding good many anxious tears
for the safety of her baby.
According to the mother, Mrs Simms
is holding the child for the pay
ment of a small amount that she claims
to be due her for attending to the baby
during Mrs. Stricl1la.nd's absence. The
two families have been living together
for some time

EXPENSIVE LIQUOR.
Government Will Pay $4,000 For
Trouble Caused by Two Quarts
and Half

Four thousand dollars for two and a
half quarts of Junction City whisky.
That is what the liquor which the quar-
tette of soldiers drank at Junction City
the evening before Joseph Leach killed
Thomas Fennell. will cost the U1ited
States government. The trial of Leach
for the murder of Fennell will cost the
government that much.
The government has brought together
its witnesses from all over the United
States and from Cuba. Their expenses
will amount to between $1,000 and 81, 000
The government alse has to pay for the
20 or more witnesses for the defense. Sew
en- of these come from Baltimore and
their travelling expenses alone will amount
to 81, 900: The other witnesses come from
Rhode Island, Washington, Chicago and
other places and their expenses will
amount to a large sum additional. The
expense of maintaining the court during
the trial will probably. bring the total ex-
pense of the trial up to $4,000.
The trouble between Riley and Leach
which eliminated in the murder of Fen
nell started over the 21k quarts of liquor
which the party of soldiers had purchased
and two quarts of which they had drank
when the fight began.

RAILROAD NEWS.
Santa Fe Trainmen Are Finally
Victorious.
An Advance In Wages Of 10
Percent Granted.
$45O,OOO ANNUALLY.
This Is What the Increase Will
Amount To.
Management Once Positively
Refused the Demands.

Against an unfavorable ultimatum
Issued by the Santa Fe executive Of
hcers last Saturday, the grievance COM
rnfttees of the Order of Railway Con-
ductors and Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen on the Santa F'e road proper,
nave won in their demand for an in
crease in wages. A dispatch from Chi
cago announces that the advance ask
ed, about Is per cent, has been granted,
and as a result S450,000 more will be
distributed among the Santa Fe train
men annually.
General Manager Nudge returned to
Topeka Sunday after having been pres
ent at the conference with the grievance
committees in Chicago all last week,
and on Monday stated that the man
agement had positively refused to
grant the increase asked by the train
men. He also stated that the tralnnen
would call in the chiefs OF their orders,
and would hold another conference with
the Santa F'e officers before leaving
Chicago.
The final conference seems to have
been effective. What the trainmen have
been working on for the past six weeks
was accomplished.
The work of the grievance commit
tees has been watched with great in
terest by the Santa Fe trainmen and
road employees generally, and the out
come of the matter will cause much
rejoicing.
Under the new contract, which has
been signed by General Manager Nudge
on the part of the company, J C. Ram
sey on the part of the conductors and
r. c. Scott on the part of the brake
men, the company agrees to abrogate
the contract which has ruled since 1892,
and in its place grants the following:
First-Increase in pay, not horizon
tally, but averaging on all lines and
on all divisions Is per cent raise in
wages.
Second-Changes in the rules.
Third-Readjustme of the runs on
various divisions.
Fourth-Recognition of the orders.
The men have been in conference at
the Great Northern in Chicago building
for two weeks. Each division of the
Santa F'e system from Chicago to AL
buquerQue, N M. and to Ell Paso Tex,
and Purcell, I It, were represented.
The Santa E'e people held out on the
proposition of increase to be granted,
on the ground that the men were re-
ceiving as much, and in some cases
more, than similar employees on other
western roads. The readjustment of the
runs was easily carried out and the
recognition Of the orders was at no time
in question.
