IS REDMOND A MURDERER?
Coroner's Jury Holds Him to the Grand
Jury for stabbing Tom Scruggs
In Troost Park.

Kansas City. Mo-, June 26.-Thomas
Re lmond was held for investigation
and trial by n cornorer's jury as the
boy who killed Tom Scruggs, son Of
NJ d. Scruggs, in Troost park Sunday
evening. Harvey Ryan and Joseph
Ronsch were held for investigation
and trial as accessories to the crime.
The evidence against Redmond as the
SLAYER of Tom Scruggs seemed COM
plete. Witness after witness testified
that Redmond was the boy who was
fighting with Scruggs, except the lit
tie fellow who struck Scruggs once
or twice with n stick. 1t was Redmond
who had knife with him before the
fight. 1t was Redmond who was seen
to strike Mt Scruggs with something
in his hand. 1t was Redmond who,
after 1cruggs had fallen and lay bleed
ing in the grass, looked around as if
da7ed and then made n motion as II
tossing a knife in the lake. Redmond
sat all the while in his chair with his
thin lips pressed tight together and
offered 10 evidence in his own behalf.

FREIGHT RATES.
Merchants to Apply TO the Isterstate Com
merce Commission for Relief from
Increased shipping Charges.

Chicago, June 26.-The Tribune
says: Prominent western merchants,
all heavy shippers of merchandise,
are preparing to call to account for
the interstate commerce commission
the heads of the various railroad COM
binations and the community of in.
terests" alliances of the trunk lines
of the country. Charges are made
that, following these movements OF
consolidation, freight rates have
been advanced from 30 to so per cent.
through quiet and organized manipu-
lation of the various classifications OF
commodities. Merchandise formerly
in class has been placed under class
2, with a consequent increase of 30
per cent. in shipment charges, and so
on through the voluminous tabulated
classifications of all commodities.
Behind the movement to attack this
scheme of freight advances by APP
plying to the interstate commerce
commission for relief lies the plan
for still more vigorous blow. The
compliments intend to press de-
mand that congress shall take a
hand in forcing the formation of q
uniform classification of freight,
which shall be effective on every rail-
road in the United States.

AMBROSE M'KAY'S CASE.

Rockbridge, No., June 24th:-Tfe
neighborhood and particularly the
members of Rockbridge Lodge, No..
1876, A. +. & A. NJ, are feeling very,
much pleased over the recovery of Mr..
Ambrose Mckay, a prominent citizen
and an honored member of the Ma.
sonic Fraternity.
Mr.. Mckay had been suffering for
years with Diabetes and rheumatism.
which recently threatened to end his.
days. His limbs were so filed with
pain that he could not sleep. He was
very bad.
Just then, someone suggested new
remedy-Dodd's Kidney Pills-which.
has been much advertised recently, as,
a cure for Bright's Disease, Diabetes.
Dropsy, rheumatism and Kidney
Trouble.
After Mr.. Mckay had used a few
doses, he commenced to improve. His
pain all left him, and he is almost as.
we'll as ever. He says Dodd's Kidney
Pills are worth much more than they
cost. They are certainly getting q.
great reputation in Missouri, and
many very startling cures are being
reported.

the standpoint of expediency will not
