Saved BY His Lucky Number.

The Kansas City Star of last Saturday
gives the sequel of Earl Tadlock's arrest
in that city on the charge of stealing a
revolver as follows:
e. T. Tadlock, who was arrested a
week ago by Mat Kenny, city detective,
on charge of stealing revolver from
the office of Attorney Ross w. Latshaw
in the New York Life building, was dis
charged this morning by Justice Wall.
Tadlock lives at I'll Missouri avenue,
and it was such a close call for him that
Justice Walls told him it was his lucky
number that saved him from going to
Jail.
Tadlock was formerly janltor on the
eighth floor of the New York Life build
ing. He knew Attorney Latshaw kept
a revolver in his desk, so he went and
borrowed it, telling the janitor that he
wanted to kill some dogs with it and
that he would return it by O'Clock the
following morning. When Detective
Kenny appeared at Tadlock's house the
latter was in the back yard taking
shot at dog. Kenny couldn't see the
dog, so he drew his own revolver and
placed Tadlock under arrest.

Ing house products and dressed meats must
be met kilograms were accordingly sent
by each Of the ofncials notifying the inter-
state Commission Of the new tariffs. which
so into effect Friday. No action has been
taken by the Santa Fe and no expression
given. II was also generally agreed that
no reduction will be made IN livestock rates
and that there would be no reduction In
rates from Omaha.
This decision will Immediately precipitate
an investigation by the commission. whose
ruling is TO the effect that the raw material
shall not take a higher rate than the manu-
factured article. Railroad oficlals will
take the position before the commission
that as the cut rates we're forced upon them
they are not compelled In equity TO disturb
the livestock rates and the same argument
will be used with reference to their failure
to place Omaha on a parity with Kansas
City.
BY long standing custom all Missouri
river points have taken the same rate,
and the Omaha packers win probably ap-
peal to the commission upon the ground
that the Kansas City rates are discriminate
ing The railroads find that they are in an
exceedingly peculiar position and the pack
ers are jubilant over their success in break
