Drove His Wife From Her Home And
Killed Her.

Kansas City, July lin full view
of twenty of their neighbors, John NJ.
Crane, who claims to own extensive
mining properties at Joplin, Mo, and
Baxter Springs, Kan, drove his wife
from her home at 1101 Bales avenue
in this city and as she was fleeing in
to the street he shot her four times
in the back, killing her instantly A
large crowd soon assembled and
threats of lynching were freely made,
but the prompt arrival of the police,
who took Crane in charge, prevented
violence towards him. Mrs. Henriet-
ia Crane, who is SO years old, filed a
divorce suit against Crane last April,
alleging that he had fraudulently Sc
cured possession of property of hers
worth $225, 900. She had inherited this
property from former husband. T..
D. Evans, a banker of Harrisonville.
She also secured temporary injunc-
ton preventing Crane from disposing
of the property and secured a re-
straining order to keep Crane from
visiting her home. This order, was
modified so that he could go home for
clothing. His visit tonight was his
first in many months. After his ar
rival there he commenced discus
sion of their business affairs and in a
few moments the tragedy resulted.
Mrs. Crane was originally from New
Orleans.

stenographer to "Sleuth" Bristow.

Arriving at a Verdict.

Kushequa, Pa. July (SpeciaD-
In this section of Pennsylvania there
is a growing belief that for such Kid
ney Diseases as Rheumatism and
Lame Back there is only one sure
cure and that is Dodd's Kidney Pills.
This belief grows from such cases as
that of Mrs. M. l.. Dawson of this
place. She tells the story herself as
follows:

Kidney Pills have done me more good

I was also bothered with Lame Back

ney Pills.
Considering that Mrs. Dawson only
took two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills,
the result would be considered wonder
full if it were not that others are re-
porting similar results daily. Kushe-
qua is fast arriving at a verdict that

"swiftwater BiIrs" troubles.

William C. Gates. better known as
saltwater Bill" one of the most
noted characters of early Klondike
days, is defending the second divorce
suit brought by his third wife. The
case is being tried in Seattle. Gates
in the early days at Dawson was a
much-talked-of person because of his
marriage and strange courtships. The
wife who is now suing him for. divorce
brought suit last April, but the court
refused to grant a decree and no pro-
vision was made for the two children
of the marriage. At the present time
Gates is working some rich claims
and is reported to have again made a
fortune. Mrs. Gates. formerly a dance
hall performer, is the younger of two
sisters whom her husband married.

MARKETING POTATO CROPS.

In line with the classic case or the
oyster shippers, cited by President
Hadley of Yale University in his book
on Railroad Transportation, is the case
of the Aroostook potato growers
brought by President futile OF the
Boston and Maine Railroad before the
Senate Committee on Interstate Com
merce. Nothing could better show
how railroad works for the interest
of the localities which it serves.
A main dependence of the farmers
of the Aroostook region is the potato
crop, aggregating annually eight to
ten million bushels, which find mar
ket largely in Boston and the adjacent
thickly settled regions of New Eng
land. The competition of cheap water
transportation from Maine to all points
along the New England coast keeps
railroad freight rates on these pota-
toes always at a very low level.
Potatoes are also a considerable out
put of the truck farms Of Michigan,
their normal market being obtained in
and through Detroit and Chicago and
other communities of that region.
Not many years ago favoring sun
and rains brought a tremendous yield
of potatoes from the Michigan fields.
At normal rates and prices there
would have been a glut of the custom
airy markets and the potatoes would
have rotted on the farms. To help
the potato growers the railroads from
Michigan made unprecedentedly low
rates on potatoes to every readable
market, even carrying them in large
quantities to place so remote as Bos-
TN, ho6 70
reduce the price on their potatoes and
even then could not dispose of them
unless the Boston and Maine Railroad
reduced its already low rate, which it
did By means of these low rates.
making possible low prices, the potato
crops of both Michigan and Maine
were finally marketed. Everybody
eats potatoes, and that year every
body had all the potatoes he wanted.
While the Michigan railroads made
rates that would have been ruinous to
the railroads, had they been applied
to the movement of all potatoes at all
times, to all places, they helped their
patrons to find markets then. The
Boston and Maine Railroad suffered a
decrease in it's revenue from potatoes.
but it enabled the ArooStOOk farmers
to market their crop and thereby to
obtain money which they spent for the
varied supplies which the railroads
brought to them. If the making of
rates were subject to governmental
adjustment such radical and prompt
action could never have been taken,
because it is we'll established that if
a rate be once reduced by a railroad
cOmDauv it cannot be restored through
the red tape of governmental proce-
dure If the Michigan railroads and
the Boston and Maine Railroad had
been subjected to governmental limi-
tation they would have felt obliged to
keep up their rates as do the railroads
of France and England and Germany
under governmental limitation and let
the potatoes rot.-EGch0qlge.

The Oil Refinery Law Was Consider

Topeka, Kan, July 10. The law
passed by the legislature last winter
appropriating $4,000 to build an in
dependent oil refinery at Peru was de-
clared unconstitutional by the state
supreme court in an opinion render
ed by Associate Justice Green.
The oil refinery law was consider
ed one of the most direct blows struck
at the, Standard Oil Company by the
last legislature, which adopted meas
ures tending to restrict that concern
in the handling of the Kansas pro-
duct.
The oil refinery law provided for
the erection at Peru of a branch of
the state penitentiary to house suff1-
cient prisoners who, it was intend
ed, were to work the oil plant. State
Treasurer Kelly and Warden E. B.
Jewett, whose duty it was to issue
the bonds, declined to sign them in
order to first secure a decision on the
constitutionality of the act Attorney
General G.. c. Coleman filed manda-
mus proceedings in the state supreme
court on behalf of the state to com
pei these officers to sign the bonds.
The opinion today declaring the act
to be Illegal and unconstitutional was
concurred in by all members of the
state supreme court.
The court holds that the construc-
ton of the refinery and the branch
penitentiary in connection with it is
in violation of the state statute which
declares:
1.-The state shall never be a party
in carrying on any works of internal
Improvement"
The construction and operation of
such a refinery, it is held, would be a
work of internal improvement.

handle until the last Spanish flag went
down. Then he went to the hospital
and narrowly escaped losing his leg.
Naval discipline was not suited to
Covert's nature, and he was frequent
