Kansas City. Mo-. Sept. 21.-Grati7

iof West Virginia, to furnish Younger
the money with which to finance az.

The Elkins family was living in Mis-
souri, when the war broke out, and
Stephen enlisted in she federal army.
The Younger and James boys We're
members of the famous Quantrell band.
II it happened tina Elkins fell into
Quantrell's hands. The leader ordered
that Elkins be taken to the rear"
which meant for him to be taken out,
and shot.
Two guards started with Elkins and
were met by Cole Younger and Frank
James, who finally prevailed on the
guards to turn the prisoner over to
them, on the promise hat they would
pc responsible for him.
In a moment the pugle blew, What
does that mean?" asked Elkins. TT
means we are going into a fight" Cole
Younger replied, and in a moment tho
entire troop N.as in full gallop. Younger
then turned to the prisoner and said:
about half a mile further on we Will
come to a fork In the We Will
take the right fork. You put spurs to
you horse and TAX the left fork, or
you are a lead mar as sure as our
name is Steve Elkins."
Elkins took the friendly advice and
whe the fork was reached plunged the
spurs into his horse. He was we'll out
of reach before he was missed by the
band. Quantrell was long under the
impression that Elkins had been killed.
After the Youngers had been sent to
prison for life Senator Elkins did ev-
erything possible for them, and made
many trips to st. Paul to intercede for
their liberty.

MONEY! THEFT
Eminent Divine Declares Oil Masnate
Is the Most Corrupt of tho Cor
rupt Glass. .

Seattle, Wash, Sept. 19.-The brand of a
thief has been placed upon John D.. Rocke-,
Teller. the Standard Oil magnate, by Rev.
NJ. A. Mathews, pastor of the First Pres
byterian hurch of Seattle. He declares
Rockefeller a thief inc a criminal and
unmercifully scores the board of foreign
missions of the Congregational church Of
America for accepting his tainted none
under the guise of religion. He fully con-
ours in the views Of Rev. Washington
GLADDEN. with regard to Rockefeller's
.'soiled" dollars. Rev. Mr.. Mathews Is
bold and fearless in his utterances. He
said:
II suppose tina Rev. Mr.. GLADDEN. and
his his followers. in taking up this ques-
ton, think much the same as I do. I
am speaking Of him. Rockefeller, of
course, simply as the most corrupt repre-
sentative of the corrupt class.
ITO denounce Rockefeller as a criminal
from the pulpit and then to accept his
contributions is manlfestly wrong. To IL
lustrate, 1t would be wrong to vilify as a
thief a man who stole a steer and then to
accept a part Of the beef. It would be
equally inconsistent to denounce a man as
a thief until the case had been proved.
ST think, al does Rev. DR.. GLADDEN., that
there is no objection to accept money from
a thief II secretly or uno~stentatiously
given, but In the Rockefeller case, it is
given with a blare of trumpets and for
missionary use in a field where his pro-
duct are sold and the proposition assumes
an entirely different aspect.

CITIES OPPOSE COUNTRY
German Free Meat Agitation Cause of
New Political Attainment.

Berlin, Sept. 2O.-The decision Of the
city council of Berlin to call a conven-
ton of h representatives of the cities
of Germany to demand of the govern
ment, in the nam of their populations,
that meat and food animals be allowed
to come in free OF duty marks a new
period in the pressure of the town pop

mercial interests for a dominating
voice in the government against the
Tended interests. The town popula-
tion equaled that of the country in 1887,
but the census of 1890 Shove that the
populations of towns of about 1000 and
above amounted to 54.3 per cent. of the
population of the country.
Chancellor Won Bulow said in the
reichstag early this year that the popu-
lations of towns of more than 5000 were
81 per cent. of the total population. AL
though this is so, the cities and those
thickly packed Industrial centers where
one mining or factory town blends into
than a third of the representation in
the reichstag. This is because there
has been no redistricting of the reich
stag since the formation of the empire,
and it is since then that Germany's
immense industrial development has
taken place.
The cities and industrial centers are
also the places where socialism has the
strongest influence. The crown and all
the conservative interests stand 1eso-
lutely against increasing the socialist
representation in the reichstag. Ber-
lin, for example, has six members, out
would have fifteen under a proper
Tomato representation. The demand Of
the cities for cheaper meat has there
fore constitutional and political mean
ings hat place the government in a
difficult situation. A way out probably
would be a compromise. The govern
ment has taken the meat question into
serious consideration.

( Des Moines, Ia, Sept. 21.-The re-
port of the bureau of rop and weather
for the past week is as follows:
The week was warmer than usual,
with more thar the normal amount of
.cloudiness, and very heavy rainfall in
the southwestern fourth of the state.
The daily mean temperature was 3 to
S degrees above normal. In the larger
part of the state conditions We're fairly
good for all Immature crops, the chief
drawback being the lack of sunshine to
hasten maturity of belated portions of
the corn crop. In considerable por-
stions OF the state the bulk of this crop
in progress in all sections where silos
are used and corn fodder is utilized.
For the state at large more than two
thirds is beyond danger of serious harm
by frost. The late planting needs the
balance of h mont and dry weather
to develop sound, ~merchantable corn.
The damage by wind in limited areas
will lessen the output somewhat n
render harvesting more difficult.
Generally, there has been good prog
sress in fall blowing.

Pasturage is at its best for this time

not much fruit to lose.

Aid to Disabled Vessel He
go Loses Position,

Washington. Sept. 21.-The failure
Of Capt. w. H. Holville, as master of
the United Fruit company's ship Oteri.
to give assistance to the United States
ship Sylph, which was disabled off
the coast of North Carolina April ~,
has cost him his position through the
revocation of his license by the steam
boat inspection service. This action
was taken by inspection officers at
Norfolk, Va, September 10, and the
correspondence was made public yes
terday by the department of commerce
and labor.
The distress of the Sylph occurred
while Lieut.. Evans IA bringing the
vessel up the coast from Florida, where
it had been used by Mrs. Roosevelt
and the White House children for a
cruise. fe
Lieut.. Evans, commenting or the
Incident. details the accident to the
Sylph and his failure to get the Oteri
to espond to his signal of distress,
and the Oteri knew it."
He then graphically describes the
experiences of the night. h failure
of other vessels to see the signals from
the Sylph, and finally the rescue on
the morning of the 18th by the Nor
gan llIlSI I'll Ill., WHICH put ABOUT from
her course to New Orleans. The morn
ing had broken with nasty weather
and failing barometers and an in
creasing sea. Lieut.. Evans asked to
be lowed int safe anchorage within
Chesapeake bay, and the request was
compiled with. The Sylph was taken
in tow, but its condition was so bad
that the liner was compelled to slow
down from ten to five knots, and lat
er to three miles an hour. The report
of Lieut.. Evans closed with this state
ment:
Il am firmly convinced that had the
Ell Cleid not taken US into port the
Sylph and all her people would have
been lost"
The inquiry adduced the fact that
Capt. Holville refused to slow down
for the alleged reason that at the time
the Sylph vas spoken the telegraph
system on the Oteri became impaired
and there was no direct of
sending word to the engine room for
a reversal of the engines. The in
spectors held hat this excuse showed
the master to be a man without re-
sources, and on that ground and negli-
gence revoked his license.
