men Of this city win believe that know
ingly bought stolen goods and was at
tempting TO hide them. This Is the first
time have ever been accused Of any
thing Of that kind When 7 was informed
the day before the arrest that Warren
Mckee had stolen those goods it aggra-
waited me and I told him 10 leave my
house. He was rooming with me and
boarding with the boys who run the res
taurant- I did not. think he would do
a thing ike that and Of course I do not
know now that he stole them, but know
he is accused Of il.
Il have known Warren Mckee ever
since he was twelve or fourteen years Of
age and never had any grounds TO
suspect him Of stealing goods from the
railroads. He was foreman OF the trans
fer business for his brother and l always
supposed he was q. silent partner in the
business Some say that 7 ought to have
known that he had no right to sell such
goods, but I cannot see why I shoul
have concluded that he stole them. I
have shipped nursery stock myself and
when the parties to whom 1t was con
signed failed TO take it I have had the
transfer companies dispose oe it for me.
I knew that they sometimes did such
things. I have bought goods from the
Rogers transfer and don't think any
body would suspect them Of doing any
thing wrong Tho tobacco 7 got Of War
ren Mckee was good stock and II he
had offered it at very low price I might
have asked fer an explanation. He did
not DO that He asked me full price for
such goods. and that IS what I paid him.
7 would like to be treated fairly IN this
matter and not be unjustly accused. Peo-
pie who take a little time to think will
see the injustice Of this accusation
against me. Look at the matter fairly.
The Mckee Transfer company IS a rep
utable business concern and do NOT be-
lieve there a half dozen business men in
this city who, if Warren Mckee had
come to them to sell a caddy OF tobacco
and he had tod them It was an over
check or given any other explanation,
would have concluded that he stole IT,
Then why should nave concluded OF

DEATH ENDS IT ALL

HAD SEVERAL SPASMS
PitiabIe Scenes Witnessed at
County Jail.

Warren Mckee. who was arrested on
the charge Of stealing goods from the
Frisco depot, has taken his case TO o
higher court, and last night at 10 o'clock
his stalwart form was stretched upon
mattress On the iron floor Of the hall OF
the county jan sun in death He was

The father and mother Of the dead man
We're present and heartbroken over the
sad death Of their boy. His brother.
Councilman Mckee and his wife were
also present. DR.. Ingles, acting county
physician, was present at the time OF his
death and said that death was caused
By heart failure Warren AIeKee was @
years Of age the day before his death.
He was born in Ohio and came here with
his parents about fifteen years ago.
The circumstances Of the death are
sad in the extreme and the parents and
brother Of the dead man wll have the
profound sympathy Of the people Of this
city. Warren Mckee came here when
about II years Of age and on account Of
ais connection with the Mckee transfer
was well known. He enlisted ia the army
during the war with Spain and served in
Cuba Some Of his friends have claimed
that ne was not quite the same after
coming back and they now think that
for some time his mind was not right
When the Frisco freight Office was rob
bed Of several caddies Of tobacco. the
evidence as TO the guilty party pointed
toward Warren Mckee. The records OF
the courts win never show whether he
was guilty or innocent Of the crime
The morning after his arrest he was
prOstrated with a spasm in the city jail
and night before last he was sent 10 tha
Wichita hospital About o clock yes

pital and was found some distance north
Of it. When asked what he was doing
out there he said he was going TO help
mis- brother Billy load some heavy stone

attendants thought ne was insane and
he was sent TO the county jan.
After he was taken to she jail he be-
came violent and was furious because
his brother did not come and take him
out. Jailor Dick Dodd had IBIS hands fun
and called some Of the inmates of the Jail
to help manage him. Dick Bender. James

BEFORE THE TAX BOARD.
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company and Nickel-Plate Heard.

The State Board of Tax Commissioner
listened yesterday morning to the appeal OF
the American Telephone and Telegraph
Company OF New York for a reduction of
the assessment on its lines extending
through Indiana. The company was rep
resented by Charles d. NJ. Cole, its gen.
eral manager. Mr.. Cole admitted that the
company has made money in its operations,
but he declared that instead of declaring
dividends the earnings have been used in
lettering the property. The present as
sessment is S25 per mile on about 10000
miles of telephone wire. Mr.. Cole suggested
that the amount ought 10 be changed to
so per mile.
Yesterday afternoon John II. Clarke. gen.
eral counsel. and A. II. Johnson, general
manager of the New York, Chicago & St.
Louis Nickel-plate) Railroad. appeared be-
fore the Tax Board. Mr.. Clarke acted as
spokesman and made an appeal for the
reduction of the roads assessment from
so. 500 per mile to about So. coo or SIS. 900 per
mile. Mr.. Clarke said he believed the board
had committed an error in CHASING the
Nickle-plate as one of the best roads. He
said It does not belong in the first class at
all as far as earnings are concerned.
The board held a short executive session
before noon and a longer one yesterday
afternoon. There will be a meeting to-day.
but nothing is on the docket for hearing.
No appeal is docketed for hearing at Mon
days session.

REVOLVER PLAY IN STREET.
william III. Compton and william
Miles Try to shoot Each Other.

NtleS Try 10 SnOOt Eacn Otner.
A letter which failed to reach a
to whom it had been addressed and which
fell into the hands OF her husband was the
cause of a shooting ARRAY at Missouri and
McCarty streets yesterday morning about
$50 o'clock.
William II. Compton, of 1855 Hiatt street,
and William Miles, of CSC South Missouri
street. were the participants. There were
few people on the street at the time but
witnesses said Compton, waited at the cor
ner and when Miles. riding a bicycle, APP
had a revolver which he drew and snapped
several times without discharging any of
the cartridges. Lee Miles, a son of Will
liam, appeared with a revolver but it was
nearby saloon and later went to the office
of Justice Hawkins. in West Indianapolis,
where he gave himself up and where he
was found by Bicycle Policemen Griffin
and Manning. He was sent TO headquar-
tiers charged with assault and battery with
intend to kill. Miles. who is an evangelist
in charge of a small West indianapolis
mission, was found later and arrested on
a similar charge. His son was locked up on
a charge of carrying concealed weapons.
Compton claims that Miles has won from
him the affections of his wife. She went
last month to Seymour, Ind, to visit her
return TO her husband. A letter written by
Miles to her at Seymour was returned to
Indianapolis by her parents and delivered
to Compton. He consulted a clairvoyant
who he claims told him that Mrs. Compton
was with Miles and also where Miles might
be found. Miles admitted writing the let
ter and others but claims he knows nothing
of her present whereabouts. He said he
had heard of threats by Compton and con-
sequently armed himself. He has a wife
and several children.

MORE FACTORIES NEEDED
INDIANAPOLIS COULD WELL PAT
TERN AFTER TERRE HAUTE.
The Probable Failure of Natural Gas
May Cause Many Industries to
Leave the Gas Belt.

Now that the giving out Of natural gas
has become practically an assured fact it
occurs to me that the people of Indianap-
oils had better organize an effort to Sc
cure the location in this city of the fac
tories that will unquestionably move out
of the gas belt in the next few years"
remarked a ~well-known banker yesterday.
II am a little afraid. however, that our
people are blinded by the prosperity that
we are enjoying he continued, but it
might be we'll for them to reflect whether
this prosperity will continue indefinitely
without some effort being put forth to
assist it. 1 visited Terre Haute not long
ago and was struck by the wonderful work
that has been and is being accomplished
in the way Of securing the location of in
dustries in that city. They now have three
large glass factories and a number of other
plants hat employ labor in great num-
bers.
"One of the things that we need to guard
against In any effort we may make towards
securing factories for Indianapolis is the
raising of prices of real estate. Over in
Terre Haute. 1 understand, they secure
options on good sites for factories without
letting the owners know what they want
the ground for. and then agents are sent
into the gas belt with full authority TO
offer inducements to factory owners to
move their plants to Terre Haute. You
see. they can know to a certainty in this
way what the land will cost. Unless some
such plan is adopted here factory owners
that select sites for their factories will find
real-estate prices soaring to the sky, and
they will as a consequence be scared out.
l am not Intentionally indulging in STRIFE
lures on the methods of real-estate men
in Indianapolis. Here, as elsewhere, they
naturally take advantage of a demand for
their wares to secure as good a price as
possible.
Il can see no reason why this city should
not in the near future become as famous
for its industrial activity as it is now for
its financial and commercial standing. 1t
only requires a little concerted effort on
the part of men who are in a position to
secure new enterprises for the city. 1t is
well known that Grand Rapids is the great
furniture city of the United States. That
honor could just as well lave belonged TO
Indianapolis if a little judicious work had
been done at the right time. We had the
plants and the additional advantage of our
superb location. | earnestly hope the sub
stantial citizens of this city will waken
from their apathy and take steps at once
to put Indianapolis in the commanding posi-
ton to which it is clearly entitled"

RESULT OF OLD FEUD.
A Shooting That Caused Report of n
Murder to BE Circulated.

A reported murder at $50 o'clock last
night at S4 Chicago street caused much ex-
itemen in North Indianapolis and Ions
hurry" runs for the detectives and bicycle
police.
A year ago July 4 John Ferguson, col
ored, living at S24 Chicago street, and sew
eral other colored men were badly cut In
an ARRAY near Golden hill. The trouble
started between Ferguson and Louis Hines,
colored. Ferguson was sent to the hos
pital. where he remained for several weeks,
and Hines left the city. He returned yes
terday, and last night went to Ferguson S
home. Ferguson. with his wife and sister,
was sitting on the front porch. Hines,
with his hat pulled down over his face
and his coat collar turned up, walked up In
the darkness and asked if Ferguson lived
there. The wife said. There he is point
ing 10 her husband Hines, with the re-
mark. II heard you was looking for me-,
at once drew a revolver and shot. The bull
let passed over Ferguson and did no injury.
Hines ran. and, so far as could be learned,
was hiding in the brush along Fall creek.
