 Killed at Kansas City.

Kansas City. Mo. Oct. 30.-R. M. Snyder. capitalist and promoter of this city, and Arthur M. Rodell, a IA year old boy were killed here Satur- day evening in an automobile accident MT. Snyder was proceeding to his home after the close of business in his automobile driven by Frank Schroder. When near the intersection of Wood land and Independence boulevard the boy crossed the boulevard directly in the path of the machine. In trying to avoid striking the boy the chauffeur drove against the curb. but too late, the car striking and knocking him several feet. The sudden veering of the car is thought to have thrown MT. Shy der partially from his seat, his head striking an iron trolley pole and crush ing his skull. The injured were both taken to Agnew hospital where MT Snyder died almost immediately. The boy lived only about two hours.
 Mir Snyder was recently indicted ir st. Louis for bribery in a franchise deal.

Topeka, Kan, Oct 30-Two per sons were killed, one Is missing, four we're seriously injured, and 20 more were more or less injured in a terrific explosion of natural gas, which completely demolished five two-story brick business blocks at Coffeyville, Kan, at noon Sunday.
 The dead are: Jesse Ross, a negro and Mrs. J. E. McDaniel. The son of c. J. Clossen, a grocer, is missing. The seriously injured are: c. ]. Clos sen, a grocer; Cotton Ray, cabman Mrs. Pearl Keeler, and three yeai old son of Mrs. Keelcr.
 It is supposed that the gas escaped from a leaking main somewhere in the block. and that after a sufficien. quantity had accumulated il became gnited. causing the explosion. The buildings were in a row on East Eigh.h street and were occupied by real estate office. three stores and a restaurant. The second floors ol all of the buildings were occupied by rooming houses.
 There were many miraculous escapes and 1t is regarded as wonder ful that at least 20 people were not killed. The explosion was heard five miles away. This is the third ex plosion of the kind in the history o Coffeyville.
 The body of the Clossen boy was found at o'clock Sunday night un der the debris, over 30 feet iron where he was when the explosion oc cured. This makes three deaths st far. The condition of the boys faith CT and that of Mrs Keeler is reported very serious

FOUND A.LUmBER TRUST.
Federal Grand Jury in Indian Ter ritcry Says Headquarters Of
 Concern k in St. Louis.

Ardmore, 1. T., Oct. 3O.-The federal grand jury in Ada has submitted its report to Judge Dickinson and reports as fellows on the existence of an al leged retail lumber trust:
 We have investigated so far as we could the matter of the high prices obtaining in the sale of lumber and are firmly convinced that the condition Is not due to honest competition, but to combination in restraint of trade. We have been reliably informed by those engaged on small scale In the retailing of lumber that unless some relief is speedily procured they Will be ruined. We have come to the con clusion as a result of our investlga- tion that the retail price of lumber is controlled by men living in other states and that the price is fixed by the Southwestern Lumber Manufac turers' association. whose headquar- ters are in St. Louis
 We suggest that Your Honor refer the matter to the Attorney General or the United States for thorough lnvesu- gation.
 This grand jury investigation was brought by the exhorbitant prices charged for lumber throughout this section

HON. GEORGE TILES, Fort Smith.

Hon. George Titles, republican congressional candidates in the fourth Arkansas district, repre- sents class of men whose pres ence and activity iu Arkansas politics at this time is sorely needed. Mir. Titles is profes- sional aud business man who knows nothing of machine poli. ties but who has accepted a nomination to office at the hands of his party as a call to duty that he cannot disregard. He is mak- ing the race for congress from the fourth Arkansas district, and is devoting to his campaign all thg energy and ability that he has developed during his long aud successful business career in the state.
 George Tiles is one of the best known citizens in Arkansas. He was born in St. Louis in 1859, and came to this state at tue age of seven years. He began his busi- ness life when twelve years old At ighteen he was the largest em. ployer of skilled labor in Arkansas and probably the first Arkansas, manufacturer to sell h:s product in other states. He was lhe first to employ sslesmen iu stores. During his business career he has built railroads. managed news paper and paid out more than Sl00,000 for advertising in this state. He built the first long distance telephone line construct ed west of the Mississippi. For twenty-three years he has been

 He has been a persistent and enthusiastic advertiser of Aakan- sas' great resources and has in. duced hundreds of thousands of dollars ot foreign capital to seek investment in the state.

 Until this campaign MT. Tiles has never been actively in politics although he has always been al uncompromisiug advocate of re- publican principles. He is con. ducting one of the most energetic campaign ever witnessed Tn the state. The voters of the fourth district are Hooking to his stand ard aud democrats in large num- bers have declared their intention to vote for him. Ii is pointed out that d man of MT. Tiles experi- ence and energy eau do more for his district. especially with re publican congress, than any demo crat could possibly do. The fight is being carried into every county of the fourth district and If the full republican vote turns out on election day, the indica- tions are that Mir. Tiles will b elected.

PRESBYTERIAN SYNOD.
Anti Unionists Withdraw-ResoIution s75Asking for New Temperance Law.

Russelville, Oct. 27.-The ex- pected happened Friday when the anti-unionists withdrew from the synod of the Presbyterian church, U. s. A., and proceeded to or ganize the Cumberland Presby- terian synod. Eleven ministers and twenty-one elders compos' q the number that withdrew from the synod to organize the separate body.
 After prayer following the opening of the synod this morn ing, Rev. J. s. Hall of Searcy arose and stated that he under stood that the present synod was to be known as the Arkansas Synod of tue Presbyterian church U. s, A. and called upon all those who desired to perpetua'e the Cumberland Presbyterian church to follow him, whereupon II ministers and 2l elders arose and proceeded to the M. E. cht rch, South, aud organized a Cumberland Presbyterian synod. The synod of Arkansas of the Presbyterian churce, adjourned Saturday night and will meet next year at Fayetteville.
 One of the most important recommendations of the Com mittee on Temperance, which was adopted, was that the legis- lature of Arkansas pass law re- versiug the present order of things in connection with petitioping against the issuance of liquor license. In lieu of a majority of the adult inhabitants petitioning against liseucc, the proposed new law would provide that before saloons can be licensed a majority of the adult inhabit- ants, male and female, shall first petition the county court in favor of such license.
