CATTLE RATE QUESTION
State Officials VIII Attempt to settle
1t Soon

The present fight between cattle and
hog shippers and the railroads is as
Stunning large proportions. State ofieIaIs
will attempt TO adjust matters The To-
pel1a Journal says:
1T has been believed that in the event
the governor, the cattlemen and the
railroads fail to get together on tie
subject Of rates, that the governor might
call a special session of the legislature
to enact railroad legislation.
Governor Stanley says he is very anx-
ious to see the controversy between the
shippers and the railroads settled, but
believes that a special session of the leg
islature would fail to produce any good
results.
I think it would be a mistake, he
said, to assemble the legislature in an
extraordinary session because 1 believe
nothing would be accomplished.
" The lower house is Republican;
majority of Populists control the senate.
I fail to perceive what could be done
with these two bodies opposed to each
other
" There Will be no special session to
take up railroad legislation said the
governor. but I hope to be able to ar
range a conference with the railroads
and cattlemen and lumbermen that will
result advantageously to all concerned -

DAMAGE SUIT BEING RETIRED
Kennedy VS.. w. & w. Ry.--Has Been
Through Both Higher Courts

Kennedy VS.. w. & w. Ry.--Has Been
Through Both Higher Courts
The suit Of John Kennedy against the
old Wichita and Western railway was
commenced yesterday for a new trial
This suit was begun in 1891 and resulted
in a judgment in favor Of Kennedy for
$500 against the company. The railway
company took the suit to the supreme
court and from there it was sent to the
court Of appeals, reviewed and sent back
here for a new trial. Kennedy is sueing
for 5000 damages for injuries alleged to
have been received while making a coup
ling in this city on January IS, 1891. He
claims that he was a new brakeman at
tho time and in attempting to couple the
front coach 70 the engine, was caught
between the Drawbacks and squeezed in
such a severe manner as to render him
unable TO perform manual labor for two
years thereafter. He claims that the com
pany had negligently and carelesssly al
lowed the drawhea.d Of the coach to re-
main broken, unknown to him, which
caused the accident.
The company claims that the drawhead
was alright, but that Kennedy was reck-
less and therefore took the risk himself.
Attorney John Davis is prosecuting the
case for Mr.. Kennedy and Attorney Fred
Bentley and Attorney Wood are defend
ing the company.

He MADE A HAUL
Thief Entered Lewis KunkIe's
Place Yesterday
ROBBED SLOT MACHINES
And Helped Himself to Cigars
and Other Goods.

Lewis Kunkle's place on East Douglas
avenue was. entered and robbed at an
early hour yesterday morning. this max
ing the third time the place has been
robbed in the last month or so.
The thief made a good haul He gained
entrance to the saloon from the alley and
evidently took his time in plundering the
place, no doubt being sure of his ground
and not expecting to be interrupted.
The thief took 50 in change from the
cash drawer and then helped himself to
four quarts Of fine whisky and several
boxes Of the best imported cigars. Before
leaving the thief broke open the three
slot machines in the saloon and robbed
them Of their contents. The haul from
the slot machines must have been con-
siderable, as there had been a large
crowd in the place all day and the ma
chimes had been played heavily. It is
estimated that he must have gotten
about s25 or $50 in cash at the least cal
cuIatfoa.
There has been a regular epidemic of
slot machine robberies in this city in the
last month or two. Nearly every resort
in town has suffered and some, Ike
Kunkle's, have been robbed several times.
The police are Of the opinion that there
is a regular gang who make a practice
Of robbipg slot machines. They are
evidently home talents, as they seem to
know their ground perfectly and appear
to carry on their work without the least
fear Of detection The work is always
done quickly and no trace or clue is left.
The police have been watching matters
closely but thus far have made but little
progress. They are hopeful, however, OF
landing the entire gang in iail shortly

they never had bit of luck in their
