HE TELLS OF TWO MURDERS.
Confession of j. D. TiIford After Being
Shot by officers.

Paxico, Kas., Aug. 81. D. Ti1ford.
alias George Hayes, was shot and NOR
tally wounded about o'clock Mon
day afternoon at the farm of Sankey
Clark, near here, by Sheriff Erricson
and Deputy Sheriff Davis. The sher-
id thinks Tilford's real name is
Wykoff, and that he is wanted for
killing a deputy United States marshal
in the Indian Territory recently.
When the officers commanded him to
surrender he attempted to draw his
gun, but they shot first.
The victim called for a priest and
made a confession in which he said
he killed a man named Riley in Man
hattal: in 1897 and a man named
Francis at the same place in 1898.
He had been at Clarks for two weeks.
He carried a revolver when working
in the field and would not sleep in the
house His grip contained files, skel-
eton keys and slungshots. The man
cannot live long, as he was shot
through the stomach with buckshou.

Items from Baldwin.

Baldwin, Kas., Aug. S.=The pros
poets for our coming school year were
never better, many parents moving
here with their families. There is not
a vacant house in town.
A purse of gold was presented to
DR.. Lough recently to partially show
the kindly feeling to a friend and
faithful instructor in the college. He
has given the college faithful service
for twelve years. Mr.. Ebright, of
Kansas City, was elected to take his
place.
Baldwin can soon boast of new
bank building of its own. It will be
an up-to-date building in every re-
spect-
Our hotel is also being equipped
with modern improvements and more
rooms added.

Smoke Consumer for Locomotives.

st. Louis, Aug. 8-Robert Quayle,
superintendent of motive power, and
other officials of the Chicago North
western, after experimenting eight
months with a hollow arch in the fire
box of a locomotive stumbled upon a
solution of the problem of smoke con-
sumption. They found that while the
engine was working smoke was elimi-
mated without regard to the quality of
the fuel. The companys switch en-
gines are now to be equipped with the
device.
if it becomes available for railroads
generally, will forever end a cause for
bitter complaint ia many localities.
There will be no excuse for railroads
not adopting the device, assuming that
they will have the right to do so and
that it will do all that is claimed. 1t
will be a. great boon to travellers, who
hope of getting relief from the intoler-
able heat of the car, only to get their
eyes and noses filed with cinders and
smoke.
Railroad officials declare that the
thing that appeals to them about this
hollow arch is the economy of fuel.
Several of the Northwestern locomo-
tives have been equipped for expert
mental purposes, and they have been
a saving of nearly one-third in the
amount of the fuel used. Some 9th er
roads have experimental with this
arch, among them the Lake Shore and
the Santa Fe, but they have not put
them on the switching engines. The
method by which the smoke is elinli-
mated by this device is simply, being a
thorough mixing of air with the car
bons, thereby assuring perfect COM
buStiOn.

MELLENS TO STAY
Big Pittsburg Oil Firm May
Yet Build Pipeline.
Stated That Amount of Oh
Wanted Not in Sight.
1000 BARRELS SHORT.
Contract Calls for 10000 Bar
rels, Only 5000 offered.
Claim That Standard Has Not
Influenced Them.
900 BARRELS SHORT.

Independence. Kan, Aug S.-John F.
Overfield. manager of the Cudahy oil
interests, has returned from Pittsburg,
where he attended the Gulf pipe line
negotiations. He says:
'"The Mellens have not turned down
the Gulf pipe line project. The facts
are the producers have not complied
with their part of the contract with the
Mellen company. The agreement was
that the MeIlens should allow $2,25O,OO0
cash and so many millions of dollars in
stock for the purpose of paying for 1OO,-
600 acres of leases and 10000 barrels
production.
Now, according to the report of the
engineers and gaugers sent here ana
paid by the Mellen people, the produc-
tion secured only amount to 5000 par
; rels per day, Notwithstanding N1r. Cralg
and Colonel Munday agreed to pay the
different producers $2,7OO $1,000 in cash OF
$3.50, 600 more than the MellenS had al
lotted for this purpose.
Mr. Mellen simply says if the pro-
ducers will shave the price 10 come
within the amount allotted for this pur-
pose and get the full 10000 barrels daily
production he will still agree to lay the
pipe line to the Gulf. However, the IN
ion Trust company, after agreeing TO
finance the DEAL notified the Mellens
last Wednesday morning that 1t could
Pfttsburg newspaper came out III Dig
headlines saying that the Mellens had
been bought off by the Standard. This
is the only intimation we have that
would indicate the interference of the
Standard in any way, as some OF the
officials of the Standard Oil company
ate heavy stockholders in this institu-
tiDr.
ron men at Pittsburg do not believe
that the Standard interfered. The Mel
lens say they will finance the deal
themselves, and they are amply able to
do so provided the producers will get
tbgether and turn over 10000 barrels
production at the price agreed in the
contract between the Mel!ens and the
PRODUCERS. W. L. Mellen, with whom
ne did business while in Pittsburg, LETT
for New York Friday evening, where he
was to meet A. w. Mellen and make ar
rangements to go ahead with the deal.
He will be in Pittsburg on Tuesday, and
T. has agreed to make arrangements with
Colonel Munday and others to go ahead
and complete this deal as per contract.
IF the producers in this field really
want the pipe line they can get it. 1t is
up to them, but they must comply with
the original agreement. The producers,
and the attorneys of certain other pro-
ducers, who were in Pittsburg at the
time 1 left for home, are confident that
the MeIlenS mean business and viii yet
build the pipe line
Final results will be known by We'd

ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
Company Formed to Run Trains From
New York to San Francisco.

New York TO san francisco.
New York, Aug. S.-A company is being
formed with paid-up capital Of 81, 100000,
which proposes to operate entire train
between New York and San Francisco
without change.
The company is negotiating for the right
to operate a private compartment for lone
person sleeping cars. This private com
partment consists of a sofa by day, con-
vertible into bed by night; a combined
table and washstand, and combined chair
and toilet. Eighteen of these compartments
and a smoking room are provided for each
car. The equipment of the train will con-
sist of sleeping cars of this design, a
stateroom car, and baggage, buffet, Ii
brary, smoking, dining and observation
cars.
The private compartment scheme is the
invention of Chester D. Pugsley of Peeks-
kill n. Y, and is patented. He has al
ready enlisted the interests of some rail-
road experts, and while the abolition of
the change of cars for the through Jour-
ney is still regarded by some as inadvis-
able, yet some of the roads are giving the
matter serious consideration
The young inventor declares, however,
that he has studied the question of SANTA
tion AID other obstacles to through
trans continental journey. and he believes
that the first trip will put it beyond the
experimental stage. The name of the new
operating concern is the Pugsley Palace
Car com9any.
