VERDICT OF VAST EFFECT
FIXING OWNERSHIP OF $1,OOO.OOO
WORTH OF KANSAS CITY LAND.
Armour, Fowler and Other Packers,
Railroads and a Water Company
Are Decided Against.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, March IA jury in
the case of Annie B. Wood and other heirs
of Silas Armstrong, an Indian, to recover
Missouri river bottom land in Kansas City,
Kan. valued at 100000 and occupied by
Armour and Fowler, the packers, and
others, has returned a verdict in favor of
the plaintiffs.
The attorneys for the defense have filed
notices of appeal If the decision of the
lower court is sustained. perhaps the Ar
mour Packing Company will be the heav-
lest loser. The portion of the tract claimed
by Armour lies adjacent to the packing
plant, and is valued at nearly 100000. 1t
is occupied by the company's machine and
car shops, stables and private car tracks.
Other large losers will be the Fowler Pack
ing Company, the Hannibal & st. Joseph
Railroad Company. the Rock Island Rail-
road Company and the Metropolitan Water
Company Smaller interests are claimed
by numerous other companies and corpor-
ations. In all there were forty plaintiffs
and ten defendants.
The tract of land contains nearly eighty
five acres and originally belonged to Silas
Armstrong, a Wyandotte Indian, and, ac-
eopd,ng srG iss 70 until mt 1881 The Contention in the
suit hinged on change in the channel OF
the Missouri river in 1861, just before Arm

nroperty transferred extended to the bank
of the river, but that year the channel OF
/ the river had changed several hundred

BURDICK CASE SEEMS AS MUCH OF
A MYSTERY AS EVER.
Body Taken to Burdick's Former
Home for Burial-PrOblem Pre-
sented by a Marked Paper.

BUFFALO, N. Y, March 1.-The body of
Edwin l.. Burdick, who was murdered at
his home on Ashland avenue last Thurs
day night, was to-day taken to his former
home in Canastota, n. Y, near Syracuse,
for burial. Mrs. Burdick, her three chill
dren and two close personal friends went
with the body, after brief funeral service
had been held at the house.
The authorities, so far to-day, have not
given out any information as to their work
in trying to run down the murderer. The
police are inclining to the theory that
the crime was committed by woman.
The police tonight for nearly two hours
have questioned a woman i'm connection
with the murder of Edwin l.. Burdick. She
is not under arrest, but it is said that an
arrest may follow. 1t is expected that the
woman, whose identity is known only TO
the police, has figured in the case hereto
fore. Her statement, it is said, is placing
the murder in an entirely different light
from any of the theories previously ad-
vanced by the police.
CLEVELAND, March la marked copy
of a Cleveland newspaper found in the
room of Edwin l.. Burdick, who was muir
dered in Buffalo on Thursday has been
mentioned in the dispatches. The marked
portion referred TO divorce granted Mrs.
Helen c. Warren, of this city. from her
husband, ]. Burton Warren. The divorce
was granted in this city two weeks since.
Mrs. Warren is the daughter of j. A. Cleve-
land. local representative of New York
manufa cturing company. When seen to-
night MIR. Cleveland said:
AZ was a neighbor of Mrs. Burdick in
Buffalo for some time, previous to my re-
moval to Cleveland. Who sent him the
marked copy of the paper containing the
notice have NO idea, nor can 1 understand
the motive. My daughter had been living
| with me for some time previous to her Sc
curing her divorce. She had been mar
| ried four years"
| Mr. Cleveland declined to permit an in
| terview with Mrs. Warren, saying she
| could throw no light upon the case Mr.
Warren Is an advertising solicitor, and his
present whereabouts is unknown.

quite possible with the bes: cut corset 10
! give tho long front and tie straight lines
i, at the side toward the froI:t and yet have
little curve at the waists.
There Is a decided spring IN the front of
the new athletic corset that the Ola
phragm and lower ribs have plenty of room
for expansion and curve without any con-
hning pressure.
The steels down the front of the stays are
| Just stiff enough to serve their purpose. and
from there to the back there Is no sign of
steel or bone.
The corset is perfectly easy and comfort
| able, and yet at the same time 1t is Il cor
set and a woman may wear IL and feel as
| trim for the occasion she does IN her
| ether apparel.
There is no neglige sensation. such as is
experienced when only ribbon belt con-
| fires the waist.
| At the back the new athletic stays are
| supplied with pliable bones. and this part of
| the garment Is cut rather low above the
waist and quite high below, so that there Is
| a very pretty curve from the long hip to
\ the lacings.
| The pulling in of the straight-front corset
| so that 1t answers the purpose of an ador-
| iral support has resulted in producing any
| number Of fiat backs. but these corsets are
| cut SO that the figure is allowed TO curve
| outward below the waist.
| FOR GREATER FREEDOM.
| For the average figure considerable space
| 10 given the front TO point near the lower
| end of the steel hooks. and this arrangement
| ir creases the freedom of the torso muscles.
I Not only is 1t perfectly easy to slip the
