TROOPS IN GOOD SPIRITS.
Mukden, Manchuria, March 1.-The

Second District Politicians Max
ing Ready for Struggle.
Much Bitterness apd Lively
Time in Prospect.
M'GREW Is A FACTOR.
Conceded That He Holds Bal
ance Of Power.
Either Allen or Bowersock Muat
Iake Terms.

Garnett, Kan. March 1-Although
the Second district Republican con-
gressiona1 convention will not be called
to order until o'clock tomorrow after
noon, a considerable number of dele
gates and wirepullers are already here
preparing for the contest. The candi-
dates have their headquarters open and
plans are being laid involving the or
ganization and the various contests.
This convention will rival the one in
the First district a month ago in Bit
terneSs. There are contesting delega-
tions from four of the nine counties in
the district. There will be lib dele
gates in the convention, and Just half
of them, So are contested. It is not
expected that the contest from Wyan-
dotte county, involving 30 of this num-
Der, Vill amount to much, but the Wy
andotte delegation is contested just the
same.
Both Wyandotte crowds, one support
ing Henry McGreW and the other for
Nat Barnes, will come in special cars.
The Fort Scott delegation, which is for
H. ]. Allen, will also come in q private
car.
The Linn county convention yester-
day declared for Congressman Bower
sock by a vote of las to AZ. This places
Bowersock in the lead so far as uncon-
| tested 0SlCSdlSS are concerned, D0G IN
order to win the norninatfon he will
have to win the contests. in all the con-
tested counties except Wyandotte.
No one candidate can possibly or
ganize the convention alone. He must
make a combination with some other
candidate, and this is where McGrew is
strong, even though his own delegation
| is contested. Either Allen OF Bower
sock must make terms with McGrew In
order to secure control, and this gives
McGrew practically the control of the
| convention.
The delegations are now divided as fol-
: 1cnrr-s.

truck drivers to the number of 400

city are affected and union officials as
sert that before tomorrow the full
strength of the union, 800, will be in
volved. The men ask an increase in
wages, a day of 1015 hours, six days to
constitute a week, and that only union
men be employed. The state board of
arbitration had practically completed
arrangements for submission of the diff
ferences to the board, when they were
turned over at the last minute.
The trouble has been brewing for some
time and eliminated when certain
transfer men discharged their union
men, The transfer men anticipating
violence, have provided for police pro-
lection and permits for non-union men
to carry revolvers have been granted in
numerous instances. The first show of
violence was the dragging of strike
breaker from his wagon.

THE SCRANTON MURDER
Jim Huff Makes Serious Charges
Against Conductor Flanders.

Scranton, Kas., March 1.-The killing
of young Dangerfield at this place by
Shorty" McKinZie. the colored porter
on Santa Fe train No II, has aroused
much Indignation. Dangerfield was
only II years old, and while a trif1le wild
there seems no justification for the
shooting, which was practically cold
blooded murder. The facts of the case
as stated in Mondays State Journal,
are as follows:
Dangerfield and two other boys were
riding on the front blind baggage when
the porter climbed upon the tender of
the engine and began throwing coal
at them The boys threw back what
coal they could get hold of.
The train slowed up and the boys be-
ing frightened, concluded they had bet
ter get off. They 5umped off and start
ed running toward the rear of the train
when the negro porter drew his re-
volver and fired, hitting DangerfieId,
who happened to be the nearest TO the
porter. The bullet entered the right
shoulder and into the spine The boy
was picked up by his companions and
the conductor refused to allow him in
the cars, so he was hauled home on the
blind.
The railroad company has demanded
an inquest and the family has consent
ed, but at this time it is not known if
there will be any inquest.

Injured Today.
Walked Onto Track Without
Noticing the Car.
CONDITION ALARMING

Picked Up.
Feared He May Have Severe In.
ternal Injuries.

e. w. Poindexter, general agent for
the Northwestern Life Insurance com
pany, was struck by a street car III
front of his home at Oil West Eighl tn
avenue today shortly after noon, and
very seriously hurt. The car was run
ming at high rate of speed, and Mr.
Poindexter was knocked about 25 feet.
He was rendered unconscious.
All examination by DR.. Mulvane and
DR.. Bowen showed that no bones were
broken, but that a crushing blow had
been sustained on the side of the chest,
causing Mr.. Poindexter severe internal
pain. 1t is feared that this injury may
have serious results. There were num-
erous slight bruises and decorations on
the body.
Mr.. Poindexter had ridden home in a
surry with T. E. Dewey. He was sit
ting on the back seat with Mr.. Dewey s
daughter. When the carriage stopped
in front of Mr.. Poindexter's home, he
got out and walked around the rear
end of the buggy and started to cross
the track. which is torn up there while
the work of reconstruction is in prog
resS. Apparently he did not see or hear
west 1t being in the middle of the
block, the car was going very rapidly.
Mr.. Poindexter seemed to be thinking
of something else, and not paying any
attention to the street cars. He step
ped down into the track where the
pavement had been torn out, then saw
the car and tried to get out, but was
not quick enough.
The car struck him on the side as
he turned. The fact that Mr.. Poin-
dexter is a very large and heavy man,
weighing over 200, probably will make
his injuries more serious.
The motorneer on the car was w. S.
MARBLE, and the conductor N. G. Apple.
The motorneer claims that he not only
rang his gong repea tedly when he saw
Mr.. Poindexter approaching the track,
but that he also shouted at him.
Mr. Dewey says that he was busy
holding his horse after Mr. Poindex-
ter got out of the buggy. the horse be-
ing afraid of the car. which was COM
ing. He says he supposed of course
Mr. Poindextef heard thes car, and did

Norton, Kan, March 1.-William Nc
Bride, one of the three defendants in

Berry, took the stand today in his own

vious testimony to the effect that the
Berry boys had opened fire and said:
"Burchard Berry fired directly at me

fired at him, and he fell. I fired at him

Berrys when his mules ran off with

commencement of the lane, leading out
of the pasture, and looked back ove1
his shoulder and saw Dewey scuff1ine
with some one at the wall. Just then
his mules took a second start and rar
a quarter of a mile.
Walter Wallace of Atwood, Kan, was
placed upon the stand and testified thai

currence for them to stop with him fol
