KNOWN IN KANSAS CITY.
Antecedents of the Two Men Under
Arrest in CHICAGO.

Kansas City, Mo-. June 26.-Warren
w. Stoner and Conklin Jones. under
arrest in Chicago on charge of ut
tering and passing bogus drafts, are
well known in Kansas City. Stoner
formerly kept livery stable here
and Jones is known as "A professional
gam hl"r
Stoner lived in Kansas City for sev-
eral years. coming here from Ken
lucky. He is married and had two
children. He once owned "Donogh, -
well known trotter. In August,
1899, Stoner raced "Donogh" against
direction" the record trotter at
Liberty, Mo, and was threatened with
summary treatment by the crowd be-
cause, it was alleged, he had deliber-
ately fouled Direction. The latter
was awarded the race and Stoner
made an offer to match Do
nogh against Direction for $4,000. The
challenge was not accepted. Stoner
was left 100000 by his father, in
Kentucky, and is credited with having
squandered it in the past four years.
He spent 100000 in one month in Kan
sas City and two months ago, at the
Latonia race meet, he 10 said to have
spent $500 in six days. This is said
to have been the last of his fortune.
Last week local detectives learned
that Stoner and Jones had had one
hundred blank drafts on the Farm
ers' national bank, of Topelb" print
ed at local shop, Stoner represent.
ing himself as an official of the con.
Germ. There is no such bank. The
men left for Chicago on June 20, the
detectives following close on their
heels.

ST. LOUIS WORLDS FAIR SITE.
The Forest Fnrk Site Chosen by the
Executive Committee and In
dorsed by the Directors.

st. Louis, June 26.-By lar tho
most important action yettakenin the
the work of creating the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition since the inaug-
uration of the movement, occurred
yesterday a few minutes after IL
o'clock, when the board of directors
OF the company unanimously agreed
that the great enterprise should be
located on what has come to be
known as the Forest Park site. The
action ends a brief but restive period
of suspense, and will be followed, it
is promised, by unceasing effort which
will result in the opening of the gates
of the greatest Worlds Fair ever wit
messed, in 1908.
a striking feature of the decision
was its unanimity. Not only was the
board of directors a unit in its opin-
ion of the wisdom of the selection,
but the executive committee who have
canvassed every aspect of the question
through dozens of painstaking ses-
sions, were also unanimous in their
judgment that the success of the expo.
sition would be most unquestionabl bly,
assured by the selection of the Forest
Park site. The directors are jubilant
over the fact that this problem, in
which SO many diversified interests
I we Of - al bnv hon al hnn
discord, and that the work may now
proceed with every shoulder at the
wheel. The advocates of other sites
have made good fight, with the re-
suit that the decision of yesterday
has followed the most thorough cam
vass that could have been instituted.
They will with few exceptions fight
hereafter as zealously for the success
of the fair at Forest Park as they
the contest that has been brought to
an end. If there is to be any oppo-
sition to the Forest Park site hereaf
ter, it is the opinion Of those who are
most familiar with the subject that 1t
will be brief and ineffective.
There yet remains the action of the
national commission, which has its
meeting at the Southern at IL o'clocl,
to-day, 1t is the final arbter OF
the case, but it is generally believed
that it will, with little delay, accept
the recommendation made to it by the
board of directors. Its work is to be
by no means of prefunctory charac'
ter, but the local officials believe tina,
the judgment of the executive com
mittee, approved by the board, will
carry conviction to the national com
missioners. The latter will visit the
site to-day and examine the facts ana
figures in the case, which abe said tc
be in such form as TO carry conviction
with them.

SELF-CONFESSED PARRICIDE.
A Claim of Accidental Killing that
VIII Have Little Weight
With Jury.

Mount Clemens, Mich, June 90
Homer Bliss, who was arrested sever
al days ago or suspicion of killing his
father, whose badly-decomposed body
was found Oh his farm, confessed yes
terday afternoon to the killing, main
tanning, however, that it was acci-
dental. According to Bliss confession,
he found his father, June 3, about to
commit suicide. In the struggle over
the gun he had, it was accidentally
discharged, Homer says, instantly
killing the father. The next day
Homer buried the body, leaving it in
the ground until June II, when he ex-
humed it. Placing it on whelbar-
row, he moved it to the spot where
it was found last Saturday. Here he
propped it against a stump and tied
the gun to sapling to make it ap-
pear his father had committed sui
eide.
