Meets Trainmen Who Want Wages In
creased.

Third Vice President j. w. Kendrick
of the Santa Fe arrived in Topeka from
Chicago this morning and this after
noon met a select committee from the
conductors and trainmen to hold a pre-
liminary conference concerning the de-
mand for a 20 per cent increase in
wages, says the Topeka State Journal.
In addition to Mr.. Kendrick the fol
lowing Santa Fe officials are here:
General Manager Wells of the Santa
Fe coast lines, General Manager Nixon
of the Santa Fe Gulf lines, General SUI
perintendent Cain of La Junta. These,
with General Manager Nudge and Gen
eral Superintendent Hurley. comprise
the whole staff of head officials of the
entire Santa Fe system.
There are here fifty-two members OF
the grievance committee representing
the Order of Railway Conductors and
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen
These ffty-two men come from all
parts of the Santa Fe system, and to
them is delegated the authority to
treat with the officials and arrange q
basis OF settlement. lney VIII all DC
present at the conferences which are
to be held beginning Tuesday.
Both the members of the committee
and the Santa Fe officials have little
to say about the negotiations at this
time. They are unwilling to estimate
how long the conference will continue
Some seem to think hat it will come
to rather al abrupt termination by the
acceptance mutually of the Is per CEN
increase which has been the basis OF
compromise among st. Louis roads
others are of the opinion that it will
take a long time to go over all the
ground involved in the situation anC
that neither side has sc far indicated
the slightest inclination to yield from
its position.

THE LUNCH QUESTION.

How a Big Chicago Firm Solved It.
So many employees bolt the lunch
and eat what they should not that they

attention of managers of the big stores

experiment on some of the girls result

Sheriff Elmer and John Wetherill
both came in from the reservation yes

biggest fire dance in years, next Tues
day night, nea Putnam Springs, about
eighteen miles south of Pennington.
Already large numbers of Indians have
collected from various portions of the
reservation, and have been engaged in
practice for the past six days and
nights. Huge piles of wood over thirty
feet in height, have been gathered for
the occasion and if the event comes off
on schedule time, will be one of the
most striking spectacular scenes ever
witnessed of late days in the west.

WHERE ENGLAND BEATS US.
HauIs Eighteen Times as Many Per
Mile of Road.

A dispatch from London says: Pre-
siding at a meeting of the shareholders
of the London G. Southwestern rail
road. II. w. Campbell remarked that if
the company did not adopt American
methods it was simply because what
was termed economy in our country
would rank as extravaganza in the
other. The officials had experimental
with large freight cars and they were
found quite unsuited for their require
ments.
Regarding the passenger traffic, Mr.,
Campbell said that while the length of
theh railroads in the United States was
nine times greater than those of Great
Britain, the latter carried twice as
many passengers, or about eighteen
times as many per mile of railroad.
The returns of accidents, Mr., Campbell
further remarked, were considered un
usually instructive. Not a single pas
senger was killed in Great Britain dur
ing 1901, while 249 were killed in the
United States that year, and 246 pas.
sengers were injured in Great Britain
in 1901, against 4,192 in that year in
the United States.

There is not a railroad in the country
that can't be bought If the proper price
were bid for control
This statement by Mr.. Campbell is
highly significant in view of the recent
activity in Frisco, when, during a sin
gle week. nearly 5000 shares of com.
mno stock alone changed hands. In
all there are only 474.000 shares of
stock of all issues outstanding. OF
this President Yoakum holds control of
more than $50 900 or absolute control,
in a coting trust of which he is sole
trustee. From this 1t can readily be
seen that Mr.. Yoakum carries control
of theh property in the palm of his
hand, and has ~plenary power to sell.
merge or lease the property at his dis
erection. He is on close terms with
J. p. Morgan, and it is this fact which
leads to the belief that Frisco and the
Morgan group of roads are to form a
close alliance.

YoAKUM CONTROLS 1T.
3 Fate of the Frisco Is Wholly in His
Hands.

Hands.
The Wall street minstrel" as the
'Friscohas been dubbed, continues to
perpleX those who have attempted to
dispose of the property by merger,
lease or sale-on paper, says a New
York dispatch.
1t is agreed by those most interested
in the fate of Frisco hat there is
some deal pending, but what the eX-
tent of this is, time alone can tell. The
continued presence in this city of Pres
ident Benjamin f. YOakum and James
Campbell, and the frequent visits to
the Office of j. Pierpont Morgan, give
color to the reports that when the an
nouncement is finally made it will be
found that Frisco will be allied in
some way with the Morgan properties.
Mr.. Campbell intended TO return to st.
Louis this week.
When the direct question was put to
Mr.. Campbell whether there was any
likelihood OF Frisco being sold, he re-
piled:
None whatever; neither is there
any danger OF il being merged with
any other property, OF course every
stakeholder has a figure at which he
might part with his holdings. This
does not refer entirely to Frisco.

KILLING IN DOUGLAS.
Lon Bass, Formerly of hsw Mexico,
Shot to Death by Frank Webb.
RANGER MCDONALD BADLY WOUNDED.

saloon and gambling house Of Lon
Bass, in Douglas, while Frank Webb
and Ed Mcdonald were looking around
Lon Bass, the proprietor, came up to
Webb and struck him over the head
with a pistol and said: 81 v, I'll
just kill you"
Webb whipped out his six shooter
and shot Bass, who fell on the floor
dead.
A second shot from Webb's pistol
went through Mcdonald, who lies in a
critical condition.
The shooting caused considerable ex-
element on Sixth street, and the
tough element of that section of the
town started to deal roughly with
Webb, when he and several other
rangers lined up against the wall with
their guns drawn, and told the tough
element that they could have all the
satisfaction they wanted.
Constable Dayton Graham and Shor-
ty Corson arrived on the scene and
Ranger Webb Immediately gave him
self up to these officers.
1t is learned that bad blood has ex-
listed between Webb and Bass for some
time, and that Bass had made open
threats to kill Webb the first chance
he had.
Lon Bass vas the proprietor of a
saloon, gambling and bawdy house on
Sixth street, and halls from New Mex

all around bully and bad man, and at

He is well known here, having served
with the following prominent men:

The general concensus of opinion is
that Webb shot in self defense.
Ed Mcdonald, his comrade, whom he
accidentally shot. lies at his home in a
serious condition.

of these men, it should be remembered
that the rangers were organized for
