A LOST BOY.
Supposition That He Had Been Kid
mapped in New York

Bonneville, Mo, June THE con
ductor of the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas flyer left a five year old boy
with the station agent here yester-
day, the boy having been placed I'M
der care of the conductor at San An
tonic, Texas, with instructions to put
him off at Bonneville where relatives
would meet him. The youngster gave
his name as William Carsted No
relatives met him. The boy was well
dressed and has a suit case with
plenty of fine clothing. He said that
his fathers name was William Car
sted. He talks of living in New York
with his ''aunt Lizzie" He tells of
the servants and electric lights, and
his prattle indicates that he lived in
a home of wealth. The supposition
here is that the child had been kid
mapped in New York, and when the
kidnapper was closely followed the
little fellow was sent to Bonneville to
get him out of the way. Every label
and mark whereby he might be iden-
titled or his home ascertained had
been removed from his clothing.
Boys Relatives Found.
Bonneville, Mo, June 8.-Informa-
ton has been received here that two
brothers running as engineers out of
Torreon, Mexico, Peter and Terry
Farris, are relatives of Willie Farris,
and that another brother, James Far
ris engineer. was killed in Mexico
three or four years ago, leaving a wi
dow and infant son, who would now
be about five years old Mrs Farris
married again at San Antonio, and
later moved to New York City. A
fourth brother is at Rockport. Mo-,
and it is thought likely that the boy

Most of the morning yesterday in
the Hendricks murder case was taken
up in hearing testimony on the char
acter of deceased. Twelve witnesses
were on the stand.
After court convened yesterday
Afternoon, Judge Pope decided that
Oliver Hendricks could tell why he
was afraid to return to Roswell to tes
tify in the behalf of his brother Ma
than at the first trial This evidence
was to go to the jury for this fact
and nothing more. Oliver Hendricks
was recalled and testified that he re-
turned here voluntarily for this trial
and that he was not arrested and brot
here. His mother had written him
from Texas to where he was living in
South Dakota saying that Nathan was
in Jail here and was chained down,
poorly fed and was in i'll health He
did not remember the exact words of
the letter, but it was something to
that effect He had destroyed the
letters he had received from his mo-
ther He was afraid to return here
for fear that he would receive the
same treatment.
Oliver testified that ne knew he was
doing wrong when he was carrying
the gun and had no special reason for
having put it on that night. Was
young man and it was just a foolish
act of young man.
At 2:19 the defendant took the
stand in his own behalf. The first
question by Attorney Beall of the de-
fense was, "Are you the man that
killed William Rainbolt,'' the defen-
dant replied, 81 am the man VINO shot
him." witness testified that he had
been in Texas for Mr. Fitzgerald sell
ing stock the same day that the ira
gedy occurred, had seen William
Rainbolt the same evening on the
street and shook hands with him.
That night ne had gone to the dance
but did have no especial reason for
so doing There was a big crowd at
the dance and he went around to the
window and looked in at the dancers.
Went back to his horse that was tied
in front of the gate and Johnny Will
son came to him and said, 'sWill Rain
bolt. took a gun off of Oliver a few
minutes ago and came pretty near kill
ing him." He then went to the buggy
wnere Rainbolt had his brother and
talked to the officer about giving bond
for the appearance of his brother on
the charge of carrying deadly weap-
ON. Deceased said that he was no
Justice of the peace and could not
accept bond and that Oliver must go
to jail. Rainbolt grabbed hold of his
brother and pushed him towards the
buggy and said s--- - get
into that buggy or l will snoot your
heart out. Get into that buggy you
or l win shoot your
liver out AT this time the officer
had pushed Oliver Hendricks against
the wheel of the buggy and was punch
ing him in the side with his Grain
bolt,s) revolver At this time ne pull
ed his (defendant's) gun and fired the
fatal shot .swhy did you shoot VIII
liam Rainbolt' was the question of
the attorney. Because I was afraid
that he was going to kill the boy, my
brother oliver. just this and nothing
more. No other purpose. Never had
any previous trouble with Rafnbolt.
There was no i'll feeling existing be-
tween us to my knowledge. He had
hold Of my brother with his gun pull

Government Side Against the Com
panies Presented in Court.
Kansas City, Mo, June S.-A S.
Van Valkenburgh, district attorney
for the Western district of Missouri,
in the Federal Court here this morn
ing presented the government side
in the cases of Armour & Co., Swift
& Co, Cudahy & Co and the Nelson
Morris packing companies, on trial
charged with accepting rebates from
the Burlington railway on export
shipments. Van Valkenburgh deciar-
ed that the packing companies ac-
hundred, when the regular tariff was
35 cents, was a plain violation of the
Interstate Commerce Act. The case
will probably go TO the jury early this
afternoon
Frank Hagerman, representing Ar
mour & Co. and speaking also for
the other defendants, followed Van
Va1kenburgh in rebuttaI argument
His argument was lengthy and tech
noon Judge Mcpherson announced

this afternoon he would instruct the
jury and give them the case.

ed on him and as he jobbed him in
the side with his revolver and was
cursing him, l shot him, (Rainbolt)
That is all there is to the killing
the witness was asked to tell the jury
the tone of voice in which Rainbolt
was speaking Witness replied that
that he would have to be awful mad
to make the proper demonstration.
He stated that after the fatal shot
was fired his gun was discharged
once accidentally. He was badly ex-
cited He told his brother Oliver to
get on the horse behind him, but Oh
iver told him him to go on alone and
that he would meet him at the Will
son ranch at Eight Mile Hill, as he,
Oliver. wanted to get his six-shooter.
They met there in the night and rode
west and escaped. Oliver said after
the killing that we might give up to
Officer Maddox here, but we conclud-
ed that he was as bad as the balance
of them and feared the outfit might
kill us. Did not have any idea of hav-
moments before the shot was fired.
The statement of Mrs. NJ. D. Minter
tnat defendant came to her house
a month before the tragedy and
threatened to kill Will Rainbolt was
declared false. Witness said he had
never seen the woman in his life to
know her until she took the stand
to testify for the prosecution. He ad
mitted that he was at the Minter
place the night before the alleged
conversation told of by Mrs. Minter,
to ask the whereabouts of Johnny
Wilson. Mr.. Minter answered the
call at the door and he did not see
or hear Mrs. Minter. He was no
friend and did not know the man
George McElroy, whom Rainbolt was
alleged to have killed. He knew Nc
Elroy,s brother and father. Was no
kin to them Had known them only
two weeks Rainbolt had been at his
(defendant's) camp, going west to
attach some property and spent the
night with MIN Rainbolt told him of
killing George McElroy and wound
ing his (McElroy's) brother at the
same time Said to Hendricks that
he had killed one of the - -
and would have felt better
if he had killed both of them. Wit
ness made demonstration to the ju-
ry as to how RainbolL and himself
were standing at the time of the
shooting of Rainbolt- Stated that
Fred Higgins brought him back here
from Darlington, N. D., and placed
him in Jail. He had changed his

bRYAN'S NOMINATION
LIKELY To- BE URGED
by SENATOR BAILEY
Noted Texan Realizes Fact That
Southern Man Cannot
Be Elected.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

WASHINGTON, June 22.-Represent-
ative Burgess of Texas. who Is one
of Senator Bailey's warmest friends,
today made this statement concerning
Bailey and the Democratic nomination
for President in 1908:
1T is undoubtedly true that with
practical unanimity the Democrats in
Congress would hail with delight the
nomination of Senator Bailey for Presi-
dent in 1908. But they know that the
Democrats cannot and will not urge
his nomination because of the section
of the earth with which he is identi-
fed. Senator Bailey himself has never
believed that the nomination of any
Southern man in 1908 would be wise
and he has continually refused his in
dorsement to any such move in his In
terest.
1T can be assumed without question
that Senator Bailey and his friends are
in hearty sympathy with Bryan's NOM
ination and / have not the slightest
doubt that the coming State conven-
ton in Texas will adopt a swinging
platform and unanimously suggest the
nomination of Mr.. Bryan in 1905"

Destroyed Hope.

did not rest well last night. He was
transferred to another cell after the
announcement of the decision of the
Supreme Court, which decreed that he
must die on the gallows. The cell
was the one occupied by William
Glover. who was hanged at Folsom
for the murder of Frederick Nierhor
several years ago. and the change was
evidently distasteful TO Weber. After
being stripped and searched he wanted
to go back to his former cell. saying
he wanted to get some medicine, but
he was not allowed to go. He will not
talk, but lies on his bed or sits with
his face In his lands, gazing straight
ahead. The death watch was estab-
iished last night Weber talked little
with the watch on ordinary subjects,
addressing them in Spanish. He Is very
pale and looks sick and despairing.
