HARPooNED THE LOCOMOTIVE
Result of Collision With a Carload
of Steel Rails

The Newton Kansan Republican says:
Train 567 yesterday morning struck a
hand car near Burton which was load
ed with rails. A gang of Greeks who are
working on the steel gang in that neigh
borhood. were pushing the car. When
they saw the train coming they were SO
frightened that they were unable to get
their load off the track and out of the
way. Engineer Tellin was on the engine
and says that he was running over
forty miles an hour when he saw the
car, and was not able to slacken speed
a great deal before he struck it. The
collision, however, did not cause great
deal of damage, one of the rails being
jammed through the cylinder head,
thereby disabling the engine, and the
pilot was somewhat smashed up. No
2 which follows soon after 567. brought
the train to Newton.
The Greeks, as soon as they deserted
the car. ran like wild Indians through
the fields, beating the air with their
arms like they were fighting humble
bees. They no doubt expected to be
thrown in prison for their carelessness
However they soon overcame their fears
and returned to the scene of the wreck
and tried to explain matters to Con-
ductor Reese in their native tongue. The
affair though somewhat startling at
first turned out to be quite amusing to
the messengers.

MAKING ARRESTS.
DanviIle Officials Begin to Take in
Suspected Lynchers.

Danville. Ill, July 31-The police have
arrested Winifred Baker, who it is
said, led the mob in it's attack on the
jail last Saturday. He was found work.
ing in a small coal mine west of Dan
vile. Baker came from Kentucky
few weeks ago. He was armed when
arrested. Three more arrests were made
today in addition to that of the alleged
leader. making II in all.
More warrants are still out and by
Saturday night the officers expect to
have % members of the mob in Jail.
The city council last night passed
resolutions commencing Sheriff Whit
lock for firing into the mob of lawless
men that attacked the Jail and thus de-
Tending the prisoners in his custody.
The council, after adjournment, inspect
ed the city prison to see the damage
wrought by the mob that lynched Met
calfe, the slayer of Gatterman. When
the aldermen entered the lookup in
body they frightened a negro prisoner
into Mysteries. as he was under the i'm
preston that mob had called for him.
The prisoner could not be treasured and
the aldermen gave up the inspection
The coroner's jury in the case of the
negro, John D. Mayfeld. rendered
verdict that the negro met death at the
hand of persons unknown. The coroner,
it is stated, considered it impossible to
obtain the names of any participants
in the affair

REPORT IS FAVORABLE.
Railway Transportation Association
Approves the Per Diem Plan.

Detroit, Mich, July 31.-The Railway
Transportation association of the United
States is meeting here to consider the
per diem system in handling cars. A
committee appointed to investigate the
system reported favorably as follows:
1T is the belief that the intent of the
per diem settlement was to facilitate
the return of each car to it's owner
promptly upon its release from the or
iginal road and that it was in no way
intended that 20 cents per day shall be
a compensation to the owner of the car
when in local use on foreign lines, in
which service the owner has no interest
whatever but rather that the rate of 20
cents was to cover the use of the car in
service carrying freight over two or
more lines in which they are all inter-
ested.
Many car movements indicate that
the foreign cars are not kept either in
direction after release from the original
load. The results of this practice are
that cars are unreasonably detained on
foreign lines and that without the con-
sent of the owner they are used for the
movement of traffic in which the owner
is not in the least concerned, and we
wish to emphasize and have this assocf-
alton recognize the apparent growing
tendency of this evil"

DID ROCK ISLAND GET IT
May Have Secured Large Block vi
Mexican Central Stock.

Chicago. July 31.-One of the features
of special Importance in the Evansville
& Terre Haute deal is seen in the fact
that Hooley & Co, by whose failure the
Rock Island has been enabled to secure
another link in the chain of it's system,
by utilizing the Chicago & Eastern Hi
noiS, which is a subsidiary road of the
Evansville & Terre Haute, also con-
trolled a large share of Mexican Cen
trail and it is believed that the Rock
Island has secured control of this road
also.
The Evansville & Terre Haute rail-
road is a part of the so-called Evans
vile route, which comprises three COM
panies-the Chicago & Eastern Illinois
railroad, the Evansville & Terre Haute
railroad and the Evansville & Indian
apolis railroad. The total mileage of
these three lines is over 1,040 miles and
the country through which they pass
is fertile and rich in production, while
along the lines are studded busy cities
and prosperous towns. The Chicago &
Eastern Illinois. the main branch of the
system, is now controlled by the ROCK
Island syndicate and the acquirementHof
the Terre Haute line is considered an
important step in the policy of extern
sion pursued by the Hartman system
of railroads. =

WISE MIR. j. J. HILL.
He Is Fixing Up Political Fences
With Washington Farmers.

Tacoma, Wash. July 31.-An effort is
being made to arrange another meeting
between President Hill of the Great
Northern, Mellen of the Northern Pa
cific and Mohler of the Oregon Railroad
& Navigation company and farmers Of
eastern Washington to talk over freight
rates and ascertain if more amicable
relations cannot be established between
railroads and producers. President Hill
has agreed to again meet farmers OF
eastern Washington and he expressed a
desire to attend their annual picnic at
Elberton, which was addressed by Gov
ernor Mcbride on the railroad commits
sion question. He could not arrange to
attend at the time. while his request
that the picnic be postponed until he
could arrive was not granted by the
picnic managers. President Hill then
agreed to visit the wheat districts early
in August to discuss freight rates, but
he is unable TO come west at that time
1t is now proposed to have him visit
Washington early in October and meet
the farmers and shippers at Pullman,
when the question of freight rates Will
be discussed at length.
The presidents named met the farmers
last fall at Colfax and Davenport and
the reduction in rates then made re-
suited in a saving to the farmers OF half
a million dollars on last years crop. One
of Mr.. Hills primary objects is to de-
feat Governor McBride's plan for the
creation of a state railroad commission
by act of the next legislature.

w1cH1TA-DENvER LINE.
New Railroad Heard from in Direc-
ton of Kinsley.

w. F. Brown, of Pratt county. and
Mr.. eyes, of Detroit Mich, arrived last
evening to talk railroad proposition to
our people, says the Kinsley Graphic.
Mr.. Brown lives at Naron and is the
man more than any other one who has
been urging the building of the Mis-
souri, Pacific extension from Iuka this
way. Mr.. eyes is a railroad promoter
and builder representing eastern cap
ital. The suggestion made by these
gentlemen is to build line of road
across this county from this city south
east and have it in operation by the
first of January, provided the town
ships will donate the right of way and
81. 600 a mile. The right of way is not
to be decided nor the bonds issued until
the road is built and in operation The
line would enter this county about one
mile south of the parallel and run west
near to the center of Brown township
then to this city. The general scheme
of the road is to run from Wichita to
Denver. If the proposition made by
these gentlemen is accepted and the
road built, Kinsley will be a division
point and the shops and offices will be
located here.
It is proposed to build the line from
Preston to this city this fall, as each
point being on the railroad it would
be easy to ship in material and work
from both ends.

Rock Island and c. & E 1. Chicago
Ticket Offices to Merge.

Chicago. July 31.-A consolidation of
the Chicago city ticket offices of the
Chicago & Eastern Illinois with that

scheduled for September 1. This viii
bring the local ticket offices of the
Rock Island Frisco system in Chicago
into one building and under one man

Marquette building, where the Rock
Island local and general ticket agents
are now. Ross H. Bookwalter. city
ticket and passenger agent of the Chi
ago & Eastern Illinois, will move from
the Merchants building and retain his
position. This move which has as yet
not been officially promulgated, is one
of many which have been recently
planned for bringing the several lines
in the Rock Island-F'r system into
closer working relations.
The plan which has been under dis
cussion, to have the general offices of
the Chicago & Eastern Illinois removed
to the new La Sale street station office
building, is now said to have been
abandoned on account of lack of space
