ONLY NINE PEOPLE.
Average Number of Passengers on
Topeka-Fort Scott Train.

J. H. Richards, the Missouri Pacific
general attorney from Fort Scott was
here today and fled the answer of the
Missouri Pacific to the complaint now
before the board against the withdrawal
of passenger trains No. % and % be-
tween Topeka and Fort Scott.
Mr.. Richards told the board that the
Missouri Pacific is experimenting with
a gasoline motor car, and that it will
be perfected some time this fall and put
into service on the Topeka-Fort Scott
line. He claims that until this is done,
it will be impossible to operate trains
over this line because it does not pay.
He does not say anything about this
motor in his answer however.
The answer sets forth figures to show
that the passenger service between To-
peka and Fort Scott has been netting
the railroad company about q cents per
train mile, while the cost of operation
is. so cents per train mile. He says that
number of passengers on the train per
mile has averaged only 8 persons.

TO CLOSE AT 6 Pm.
Big Stores arranging Early Saturday
Closing Hour.

An effort originating with the fed
Grated club women of the city, is be-
ing made to close the dry. goods and
other large stores along Kansas ave-
nue. at o'clock on Saturday evening
instead of 10 o'clock and 1920 as at
present prevails.
Mrs. John Sargent and Mrs. Jay F.
Close are acting as a committee from
the federation to secure signers to the
agreement from the merchants. The
effort is in the interests of the en-
ployes, of the stores, and to secure
shorter hours of labor. A number of
merchants close at this time during
the summer months but there is no
general agreement to that effect and
none has ever existed. Mrs. Sargent
stated at noon that she had practical
" secured sufficient signers to make
the agreement effective. It is prob
able therefore that the merchants will
make that their closing hour.
Mr.. E. H. Crosby of Crosby Broth
ers said; Il presume we will close at
o'clock on Saturday, as we have al
ways done during the summer months,
regardless of what action the other
stores take. It is a hard matter to
get all of the stores lined UP and we
have never been able to do this be-

The following dispatch from Florence,
Kan, to a Kansas City paper, gives the
"Other side of the story:
Florence, Kan, June 26.-E. E. Kel-
ley Santa Fe grading contractor, was
brought here from Topeka today in a
critical condition. having been shot by
Patrolman Jenkins and dubbed into in
sensibility by five Topeka police. KEEL
ley was stopped on the streets of To-
peka last night by Police Officer Jen-
kins, who. it is alleged, had an old
grudge against Kelley. and said he
could whip Kelley without star or club.
Kelley, not wanting to have any trou-
Bile, started to leave, Whereupon Jenkins
drew his gun and shot him through the
arm and shoulder. Four more police
men, it is claimed then came running
up and began aSSaulting Kelley after
he had been shot and dubbed him I'M
til he was insensible. Kelley was taken
to the police station, where his injuries
were dressed and put on the train for
Florence. Kelley's wife called at the
station after hearing of the assault to
see her husband, and says she was told
she could not see him, that he was
dying, and the sooner the better. KEEL
ley expects to bring suit against the
city OF Topeka for 10000"
The story told by Kelley differs
greatly from that of eye witnesses to
the affair. who state that Jenkins shot
the man only after he had been az
| saulted by Kelley and three other pris-
oners, whom he was holding while
waiting for the patrol wagon. After
! the men were loaded into the wagon
they started a second fight, and were
dubbed into subsection by Officers

Kelley received further injuries by

was dressed at the station, but the
wound in his arm was slight and not
