SHARP PRACTICE.
An Independence Abstract Man

Claims Chicago Firm We're a
Set of RascaIs.
WITHHELD HIS MONEY.
Published and Sold a Map of
Montgomery County.
Kansas Mans Work But He
Failed to Get Proceeds.

Independence. Dec. 15.-The Re
porter says:
According to a petition fled in the
Office of the district clerk here Thurs
day E. S. Mears, the abstract man, has
been the victim Of sharp practice by
which he is out a sum of money ap-
proximating $1.7O0. The petition al
leges that in March, 1905, he was en-
gagged in making a map of Montgom-
cry county with a view to placing it on
sale About this time G. G. Dodds and
r. G. Stubbins. doing business as Gin
ton Gilbert e Co, of Chicago, came
along and made an arrangement with
Mr.. Mears by which they agreed to
take the map and publish it providing
they could have the exclusive control
OF it. A contract was drawn up and
signed by both parties by which the
Chicago people agreed to print the
maps and retail at SIS for the paper
and Sc for the cloth maps. The de-
PENDANTS were to have all moneys up
to $500, after which the receipts for
the sale of the maps were to be divided
evenly between the parties to the con-
tract.
On Nov. II a settlement was effected
between the parties. Clinton, Gilbert
& Co. claimed they had sold 500 maps
for which they had received 1,04O in
cash and $3.50 in notes and other Sc
curiues. On this basis the settlement
was made.
On Nov. 21 Mr.. Mears learned in
some manner that he had been given
the worst of it in the settlement
that the Chicago parties had sold about
1000 maps instead of 300. In his
petition Mr.. Mears alleges he has
made no demand on the parties for
the balance due him under the con
tract for the reason that he does not
know the address of the firm in Chi
cagO and cannot find them. He has
learned, however. that the parties have
some money in the hands of people III
this county and he seeks to recover
the S1,700 due him for his maps from
these parties. The court is asked tC
grant him Judgment for $1,700 and
the costs of the legal proceedings.

INJURED MRS. BERRY's EYES.
The Ammonia Bath at Girard VIII
Cause an Operation.

Kansas City, Dec. 15.-''Mrs. Berry S
eyesight probably will be permanently
impaired as a result of the ammonia
bath to which she was treated in the
car at Girard, Kan, last week." said
DR.. J. W. Kimberlin, a specialist, who
is treating the woman. Mrs. Berry is
in DR.. PuntOn's sanitarium. Since her
removal from the car in which she had
intrenched herself, she has had prac-
tically no use of her eyes.
1.-THE lid of one eye has grown to
the eyebau and only an operation can
remedy this condition. said DR.. Kim
berlin. 1.-The other eye will become
all right, I believe"
According to DR.. Kimberlin the in
jury done Mrs. Berry's eyes was not
caused by the ammonia fumes, but by
the liquid itself
From examination I find that the
eye-balls have been burned by am
monia," he said. MRS. Berry must
have received the greater part of the
dose full in the face"
AS an insanity patient Mrs. Berry is
doing well. She is rational on all sub
jects, except the delusion that she is
being bounded.

sUGAR woRrH s5O.OOO.OoO
Produced From Cane in United States
Territory in One Year.

Washington. Dec. ia report of the
bureau of statistics on the sugar
brought into the United States during
the year 1905 shows that of the $780,
100000 worth of sugar brought in during
that period, $4,000, 600 worth came from
Hawaii, Porto Rico and the Philippines.
This shows a decided Increase above
previous years. The value of sugar i'm
ported from Cuba this year is also
higher than the value of the amount
imported last year though the quantity
was about 100000 pounds less. AS in
previous years, only a very small guam
tity of beet sugar was imported and
Cuba again is far in the lead of all
nations in producing sugar cane.

reduction. He showed that in Iowa, Illi-
nois and Missouri, where rates are lower
than in Kansas, the milling in transit
privilege is given. He also showed that
the grades and curves and cost of road
building in Kansas are less than in the
states mentioned.
Mr.. Atwood insisted that a reduction in
grain rates would be of no benefit to the
farmers, because it would bring about a
reduction in the price of grain through
the destruction Of local milling interests.
