REASON WHY SUIT WAS BROUGHT BY HEIRS OF MRS. WALBsTElN. One Of Plaintiffs Says Henry Wald- stein Proposed Unjust Division
 of Estate.
REASON WHY

In lS95." said one of the plaintiffs n the suit of Amanda Moore and others against Henry Walsten and others, which was argued in chancery court Tuesday, 10 the Graphic this morning. for financial reasons un- r<c essary to detail here Mrs. Lizette @aldstein found it advisable to trans fsE all of her property to her son. 5ieufE. This was done with the dis t.aet understanding, as acknowledged s Henry Waldstein and Mrs. Brown z sAing depositions, that it was to be
 .Vded among her children At the tfme of Mrs. Waldstein's s death, Henry promised to execute decd to an un- s5raed one-sixth interest to each os the other heirs In place of this he seIt tQ plaintiffs an unsigned state meift of a trust by which he was to hoie Jhe property for twenty years a1d in which he reserved the right to dispose of any of the property. and III winch he stated that he also pro posed to immediately give to Mrs Carrie " Brown the property at the corner of Second avenue and Laurel street in this city. which is valued at s3,5e0, in addition to the one-siXth interest of the remainder of the es- tate.
 in view of this obviously unjust division of the estate and learning :hat Henry Waldstein was endeavor- sn& to sell some portions of the prop Artx. after fluitless remonstrances and proposals for amicable adjust ment. the plaintiffs were forced to appeal 10 the court for that protection of their interests denied to them by their brother. Henry Waldstein."

years since corn and oats shipped from
the west to the east have beenreturned
to the west for feed Hundreds of cat
tie are now being shipped into Kansas
City daily and sold at a sacrifice by
farmers who feel that they would be
unable to carry them through the fall
and winter These cattle are being
bought up by men who have money
sufficient to hold them until next year,
and they are the parties who are now
buying up what feed remains stored in
the eastern elevators.
The shipments of feed to the WeGt
win serve to bring the traffic of west
ern roads a little nearer the standard
set for this time, when the magnitude
of the western wheat crop was realiz-
ed However. 1t win still fall far short
As a result of the drought and the al
most total failure Of the western corn
crop, much Of the wheat is being held
in the west for feeding purposes, and
the movement east is by no means
what was expected. This has resulted
IN unusually strong competition, and
the Kansas City terminal lines are now
charging the Santa Fe, Rock Island
and Missouri Pacific roads with bidding
Tor grain at western points above the
Kansas City market BY such means,
1t is alleged, the granger roads receive
the long hauls to Chicago and St Louis
at the expense of the Kansas City mar
ket Threats of reta-liatory action are
being made by the terminal lines.

lions in that part of the state He says
that the crop of wheat this year was i'm
nense. Every few miles threshing ma
chimes are running and the yield of the
grain averages from 27 to 80 bushels per
acre, all testing first grade wheat or at
least 60 pounds to the bushel measure.
Since he was a resident of that part OF
the state wheat has almost supplanted
corn as a staple agricultural product,
only a comparatively small acreage of
the latter grain being now planted. Mrs.
Webster was with him on his trip.
