C. J. and M. Railways Affairs Get
into Court.

New York. June 1S.-The Tribune
says: Justice Wilmot M. Smith of the
supreme court heard In White Plains,
N. Y, arguments of counsel on the
question of giving security in the case
of reorganization of the Cincinnati,
jackson & Mackinaw railway. He
finally reserved decision
The style of the suit is Reiss against
Olcott ct al, and the question at issue
is whether the Central Trust company
of the Guaranty Trust company shall
furnish a bond for the plaintiff, who is
a stOckholder, to secure him against
any disposition of the trust securities
which were agreed to be issued under
the plan of reorganization. Neither
trust company was willing to give the
bond for 100000 to guarantee the new
securities and the suggestion was
m ade to require TWombley & Co. the
purchasers and present holders of the
new stock to deposit a sufficient
amount of the issue to secure the
PLAINTIFF stockholders. This was not
agreeable to the purchaser, nor was the
offer of the plaintiff to accept the bond
of H. NICK. Twombley. Of that firm

HIS WRIST MANGLED.
William Puett of the Blacksmith Shop
Loses a Hand.

William Puett, who runs the big
shears in the blacksmith shop, had his
right wrist caught in that machine
Monday afternoon and so badly man
gled that amputation was necessary.
No one seems to have seen the accident
but it is thought that Puett in reaching
after a piece of iron stumbled and in
trying to catch himself threw one hand
party between the closing jaws of the
machine. The first anyone knew of the
accident was when Puett Strengthened
up holding the mangled wrIsI in the left
hand.
He was taken to the hospital where
an operation was performed and is
now thought to be getting along nice
".
The shears, in which Puett's hand
was caught is one of the most ponder
Gus in the blacksmith shop. 1t is used
for breaking UP iron and while feeding
iron into it, the accident as described
above happened.
Puett began work for the Santa Fe
only about a week ago, coming to this
place not long ago from Manhattan. He
lives out near the Shorey postOfdce and
has a wife and one child.

To the Editor of the State Journal:
The following letter from a leading

cities has been forwarded to me by the
person to whom it was addressed
To the Secretary of the Sons of the
American Revolution, San Francisco,
Cal.
Dear Sir: My attention is called to
your organization by President McKin-

father was a soldier of the revolution.
would like information regarding the
like to become a member. VIII you
kindly send me any printed matter you
have regarding same.
Very Respectfully,
The writer of the above is notary
public, a real estate and insurance
agent, and late captain of cavalry,
and therefore presumed to be a man
of more than average general informa-
that a Kansas society of the Sons of the
American Revolution has been in ex-
1stence for nearly ten years. 1t is
therefore further presumed that there
may be many more such in the state
who may want the information asked
by the writer of the above. It may be
recalled that President Mckinley paid
a high tribute to the Sons of the Amer
lean Revolution in his address to the
self a member.
1t is suggested that the press of the
state may do a favor to readers by
mention of these facts.
