AGED WOMAN DEFIES
A ROBBERS REVOLVER
Bandits Prepare to Torture Her, but
Are Diverted by Finding Money.

WATERBURY,, Conn.,, July 27.-
News of case of torture and robbery
was received in this city tonight from
Goshen. Bound hand and foot to her
bed early Sunday morning, Mrs. Morse,
an aged woman, gazed fearlessly at
two masked men and refused to give
them any information which might
lead to the discovery of plumber. The
men gained access to Mrs. Morse's
room without awakening her, and
bound her to the bed posts with ropes.
Then one drew a pistol and threatened
to shoot her unless she gave them the
desired information. When this threat
failed the robbers made preparations
to torture Mrs. Morse by burning the
soles of her feet, but the discovery of
$50, a gold watch and ring on
dresser in the room turned them from
the purpose.
In another part of the house they
found Mrs. Patrick Turner They
bound her also as they did Mrs. Morse
and threatened her with the revolver.

There is a well known lady in Coraop-

START FOR
WASHINGTON
City Attorney Helm and S. S.
Ashbaugh Left Yesterday.
TO ARGUE RATE CASES
Before Interstate Commerce
Commission on March a.

| City Attorney A. Z. Helm and S. s. Ash
| ington, d. c., to argue the cases brought
| by the city of Wichita before the Inter
state Commerce commission against the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, the Chi
cago, Rock Island and Pacific. the St
Louis and San Francisco and the Mis-
| souri, Pacific railways for alleged dis
ordinations in freight rates into and out
of Wichita.
The oral arguments in five cases will
be heard at this sitting Of the commits
sion. The cases were against the rail-
roads for alleged Determinations on grain
and grain products, coal, sugar, lumber
and the differential on wheat and flour
consigned from Kansas and Oklahoma to
Texas points.
Last September the Interstate Com
merce commission came TO Wichita and
heard the cases. City Attorney Helm
conducted the cases for the city and her
business men, with S. s. Ashbaugh and
George w. Adams as counsel. The rail-
roads were represented by their regular
attorneys and the freight traffic man
ayers of the respective roads The rail-
roads took an active interest in each case
with the exception of the one concerning
TIE Oh WHtdt ana iioui W
Texas. The fight in this case was more
between Texas and Kansas millers and
grain men than between the city of
Wichita and the railroads
The hearing continued in this city al
most an entire week. The evidence was
taken by Stenographers and later tran
scribed and the copies sent 10 the attor-
neys for the city and also to the railroad
attorneys. From this evidence was form
ed the briefs and written arguments of
the attorneys, and the briefs We're filed
some ume ago.
The hearing of the oral arguments will
be held in the Chamber of Commerce
rooms in Washington. on March 4th. The
hearing is expected to last the greater
part of two days. The arguments will be
taken by stenoSraphers and transcribed
and the commissioners will form their de-
cision from the briefs and this argument.
The decision is expected before the end
of next month.
The citys attorneys feel that they have
a good case. They offered evidence at
the hearing in this city which the rail-
roads did not try to deny. In each case
the evidence offered by the city was con-
elusive in that il clearly showed the dis
ordinations in freight rates into and out
of Wichita. Petitions were filed for sew
eral other suits, but soon after filing the
suits the railroads held a conference with
the business men and the rates We're sat
isfactorily adjusted in a number OF the
cases. and these were not heard by the
commission. Five cases were heard and
will be argued and decisions rendered.
The attorneys and business men who
heard the evidence and have read the
briefs are sanguine that the decisions will
be favorable to the city and her business
interests.

test miX-ups ever heard of some time
Thursday night. Maybe the heat of the

olive off the Sierra Nevada mountains,

y part of this low. unbeknown 10 the
weather man, slipped off and rowed up
the Mississippi and Ohio rivers to the
headquarters of the high. near Pittsburg
and chased the high out irso Oregon,
while the low stopped in South Dakota.
The weather man has been watching
the low for several days. expecting some
coupe like this and the low slipped of
and the weather man did not know about
it until after the damage was done. They
had a hard time getting the high to stay
in this country. Ii was scared too bad
and took sudden notion TO go 10 Japan.
But a western weather man tossed his
lasso over the highs head and tripped
him and knocked thes care out. When
the lows become prominent there is bound
to be trouble. so the weather man says
it will be partly cloudy today with tenn
peratllre lower
