THRILLING CASE FOR
THE HIGHEST COURT
Suit in Which but Fifty Cents Is In.
VOWED Will be Taken to

Special to The Globe.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct ia suit
in which only SO cents is involved is
practically certain to find It's way to
the United States supreme court and
it is said that from a monetary stand
point it will be the most insignificant
case ever submitted to that tribunal.
Mrs. P. H. Ludlun, of Kansas City,
Kan, came from Caldwell, Kan, to
Kansas City over the Rock Island and
did not call for her baggage until three
days later. She found it in possession
of the Union Depot company with SO
cents storage charges against it.
She paid the so cents under protest
and then sued the Rock Island to re-
cover. She alleged that the checks
given to her by the railroad company
were legal receipts on the property and
that the Rock Island did not have any
lawful right to interpose a third party,
the Union Depot company. She was
given judgment last night and an ap-
peal was taken.

Clark, of Cedar Rapids. Iowa, grand
chief of the Order of Railway Conduc-
tors, who was chosen as one of the
arbitrators of the miners strike dis
putes, was here today. He said ne had
not yet received official notice of his
selection, but expects to find it await
ing him when he arrives home tomor-
row. Mr.. Clark said he would GER
tainly accept, if for no other reason
than to avoid the complication and de-
lay that might result from one of the
commissioners declining. Mr.. Clark
came here to attend a union meeting
that had been called to discuss griev-
ances which the Delaware, Lackawan-
ma & Western railroad men seek to
have redressed, but which meeting it
was decided to postpone until after
the mine strike is out of the way. Mr..
Clark met with the local lodge of con-
ductors and left for home tonight.

| Younger had arranged his papers and
some of his possessions. A large brown
| paper envelope in which were numer-
| GUS papers bore upon it's face his fare
we'll message to the world. An empty
| red leather purse with a dime on the
| cover, his watch and chain, a pen and
a bottle of ink completed the
| inventory. His trousers, vest,
| coat and oveTshirt neatly folded were
on the back OF nearby chair. His
| overcoat, a white fedora hat, his kid
! gloves and silk umbrella We're in
| his clothes press. Although Younger
was known to have brought trunk
to his room when he came from Min
| neapolis, it was not found.
Coroner a. W. Miller and DR.. J. M.
| Fennell, upon examination, concluded
! that Younger had shot himself between
Z and o'clock in the morning, al
though he POSSIBLY lived a short time
thereafter.
John Mason, who occupies a room
on the same floor with Younger, de-
clares that when he passed the room
at 10 o'clock Re heard a sound as if
some one were snoring. and people next
door to Founger's room and separated
from his by q slight pine door declare
they heard no sound of q shot at any
time during the morning.
Younger went TO the Reardon two
weeks ago last Tuesday and engaged
room. He moved his effects from
Minneapolis and established himself In
the room the following Saturday.
When he engaged the room he told MT.
O'Connell, the hot clerk, that on no
condition should anyone be allowed to
enter his room while he was absent.
Last Thursday according to Mr..
O'Connell, Younger came to him and
said that he would give up his room
the following Saturday. The following
day he again called O'Connell and told
him that he would keep the room an
other week.
Younger had many conversations
with O'Connell, to whom he often
spoke of going home to Missouri. He
complained Of the rigorous winters
the flowers bloomed all the year
around. IIe complained, too, that he
could not get suitable work. He said
that he had come to st. Paul with the
intention of working for Yerxa Bros,
but that, owing to some miSunder-
standing, he had declined the position
after moving here.
I[e told OCCnnell that he wanted to
go into business for himself and that he
had friends who were willing to help
him make start but that the state
authorities would not let him engage
in business.
Younger apparently had no work,
for he spent the greater portion of
his time in his room. He was very
friendly with the other roomers at the
hotel. speaking with them often and
always of his longing to return home.
All the roomers liked him for his gen.
tlemanly behavior and his little refine
ments of manner.

NURSE is GIVEN FIFTY
THOUSAND DOLLARS
Request of Some Grateful Friend
Whose Identity Has Not Been
Established.

Special to The Globe.
ASHLAND, Ohio, Oct. 19.-Miss Eva
Martin, Chicago nurse, who has fallen
heir to $4,000, the gift of some CRATE
full but unknown friend. has been found
in this city after a long search. She
has been a nurse in DR.. A. Sharick' s
hospital here since last June. Miss
Martin is charming brunette of most
pleasing manner. Her father died in
1873. Her mother three sisters and a
brother rejoice with her as to her good
fortune. The young woman naturally
feels highly elated, although she stated
that she did not have the faintest idea
who her benefactor was. She remem-
bers several wealthy people whom she
nursed who told her when she left
their homes that they would "remem-
Der" her, but which one it is she is
at loss to know.
w. ]. Birge, cashier of the Atlantic
Transportation company, of Chicago,
is the only man outside of the attorney
in the case who knows the name of the
man who bequeathed $4,000 to Miss
Martin, who nursed him through a
previous illness. The man was near
to death at that time and became
greatly impressed with the nurse who
was instrumental in prolonging his
life. He assured her of his gratitude
when he left the hospital and went
back to st. Louis, where he died four
weeks ago.
His attorney went to Chicago and
from Miss Viva Brown, manager of the
Society of Nurses directory secured
the names of'two Eva Martins. One of
them was located and found to be a
stranger. There is no doubt that the
Ashland girl is the right one.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Oct. 19.AThree
white men, officers, and eight negroes
are reported to have been killed in q
race riot at Littleton, Ala, small
town twenty-five miles southwest OF
this city today. The number of in
jured has not yet been ascertained. A
special train carrying Sheriff Andrew
w. Burgin and ten deputies left for the
scene of the riot at II o'clock tonight.
The riot is said to have been caused
by a crowd of negroes attacking a
white woman, who was crossing rail-
road bridge on her way home from a
visit.
AS soon as the white citizens of the
town learned of the incident they be-
gan a search of the woman's assail-
ants. The negroes refused to deliver
the assailants and armed themselves to
prevent their capture.
When the posse arrived the negroes
opened fire, killing three of the officers.
The posse returned the fire, killing
eight of the negroes. Owing to the
large number of negroes the posse was
obliged to retire.
The negroes are said to be in COM
plete possession of the town and have
entrenched themselves. The negroes
are said to have captured the powder
magazine of mining company and are
strongly fortified.
A newspaper man who has just az
rived in Littleton reports the situation
fully as serious as reported. So far
he has obtained the following list of
casualties and says there are many
more to come: Unknown man, shot
dead.

PREPARES FOR HIS DEATH.
Makes Arrangements, Then "Jim"
YOUNGER Uses His Gun.

James Younger was last seen alive
by K. j. O'Connell, clerk of the Rear
don hotel when Younger returned to
his room during the evening. At 1
o'clock Mr.. OConnell passed the room;
the light was still burning, but he
heard no sound within, and did not
disturb him.
About O'Clock Sunday morning
Mrs. E. Kelly, the housekeeper, paused
in front of Younger's door moment,
but hearing the sound of heavy
breathing within, supposed him still
asleep. 1t being Sunday morning, she
did not call him. She waited until
about 4 o'clock in the afternoon and
again visited his room. This time she
heard no one within, and supposing
that Younger had arisen and gone out
she opened the door with her master
key. Younger was lying in natural
position in the bed, as if asleep. Mrs.
Kelly went over to him and touched
his hand. It was cold.
Without waiting to learn more, Mrs.
Kelly fed from the room. AS she ran
up the stairs one of the roomers stop
ped her, and, seeing her crying, asked
her what was the matter. Her reply
was a request for him to find the en-
gineer. When e. J. Collinder, the en-
gineer, appeared, she told her story
and asked him to call the police.
Rushing out, Collinder and the roomer
sought policeman in vain. They tele-
phOned headquarters, and the police
summoned the coroner. Officer Hinton
arriving, took possession of the room.
When the police opened the room
for the coroner, everything was in per-
feet order. On the small iron bed in
the corner, with his head towards the
single window, James Younger, dress
ed in his underclothes, was lying as if
asleep, his right foot over the left, and
his hands across his body. In his right
hand, which lay upon his body at the
waist line, he held tightly clasped a
thirty eight caliber American bulldog
revolver From a bullet wound in the
right side of his head, about three
inches above and back of the ear
coagulated blood and brain matter had
oozed upon the pillow. His left hand
with which, from the blood stained
fingers, he must have grasped the
wound, lay on his breast. The blood
which flowed from the wound stained
the iron-gray hair and pillow upon
which his head rested. There was but
one wound. The bullet had penetrated
the skull, ranging downWards through
the brain.
The features of the dead man were
composed and natural as if he were
sleeping. There was no contraction of
the muscles of the body, or toes or
fingers, save where the hand grasped
tie revolver.

terminated his realized dream of lib

WAS FORBIDDEN TO MARRY.
Love kindled in Prison Comes to
Nauaht Outside.

Love and the anticipation of marry
ing the woman who had kindled the
spot of tenderness in his breast which
even rigorous prison discipline could
not quench sOftened the years of duress
which James Younger suffered.
When the coveted freedom came
which he thought was to bring the
realization of the hope which had
buOyed his weighted spirit while the
off as ages within the grim, gray walls,
he found that liberty meant all to him
except the consummation of that one
great longing.
The law said Jim Younger might be
free. It's construction of the word.
however, meant merely the swinging
open of two forbidding, cruel iron gates
which had for twenty-five years stood
between him and the world.
1t meant that he might walk abroad
and let generation which had been
yet unborn when those doors swung
against him point at him and say:
"There goes Jim Younger"
1t meant that Jim Younger's body
was free, but that the relentless hand
Of the law still clenched his heart
strings within the iron grasp-that his
heart and the yearnings of his soul
were still under the direction of the
great state of Minnesota
The law said Jim Younger could not
marry. He was free to walk and eat
and drink and work without the walls
of the prison which had been his home
longer than any other abode since his
eyes first opened to the light of day.
But it's dread influence retained direc-
ton of his conscience and it's dictates
forbade the exercise of the most holy
of human emotions.
Did this but come to pass-were Jim
Younger to transgress to the extent of
taking unto himself as wife the woman
for whom he would willingly have
sacrificed his life, the great hinges OF
the prison gates would again creak in
his ears, and Jim Younger, paroled
prisoner, would once more become a
convict, a driven felon.
Less hideous than this, evidently
thought he, would be the death to
which he sent himself yesterday.
During his confinement the quiet,
hard working prisoner attracted the
attention of the daughter of one of the
deputy wardens. Her interest,u maxi
ing his acquaintance, soon evolved into
love- Even prison rules and regulations
