Postmaster j. G. Davis received a
letter few days ago from A. j Ham
mel, who was head sawyer for the
Lamb Davis Lumber Co. up TO some
four or five weeks ago, when he left
for Mexico. He is now located in Mi
ehoacan, one of the Pacific coast states
OF Old Mexico, where he is employed
in a saw mill as master of instructions,
by an English company. The Echo has
made it a practice to print the letters OF
Leavenworth citizens who have gone
to new ields. Their impressions of a
strange country are at least real and
fresh from first hands. Mr.. Hammel
says:
'iThe climate and weather here is
very fine. picked Strawberries for
breakfast on the morning after Christ
mas. came here to take saw but
was given the job of instructing the
natives in the art of saw milling. There
are eight Americans and five English
men employed about the mill. The
balance of the employees are Mexicans.
Oranges and bananas grow all over this
state. The altitude here is 5000 feet
above the sea. The temperature runs

The new coal sheds and bunkers for
the railroad company are rapidly APP
preaching completion. The capacity
will be practically the same as the old
one that burned in August last. There
will be ten pockets or dumps from
which the engines will be supplied
with coal. The incline will be shorter
and not so steep as the old one. In
stead of the cars being pushed up into
the shed by an engine they will be
drawn up by large and powerful
gasoline engine located at the east end
of the shed.
In another thirty days the shed viii
probably be completed and ready for
use.

LOOTED BY ITS employees
MONTGOMERY, WARD & cos KAN
SAS CITY BRANCH ROBBED.
Several Clerks Are Arrested ard
Many Have Been Discharged
Total of Thefts Not Stated.

Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. 26.-The
systematic looting of the Kansas City
branch of Montgomery Ward & Co.,
of Chicago, has been discovered and
as a result a number of employees have
been arrested.
1t is said by an officer of the COM
pany in this city that warrants have
been issued for the arrest of more
than IL former employees, and that the
list may be increased as the investi-
CATION progresses. Andrew Young,
general manager of the company's
local branch house, declined to place
an estimate on the value of the prop
erty stolen.
More than month ago officers of
the company suspected that sys-
tematic robbery was being carried on
by certain employees. Secret service
men were employed who went to
work with the regular employees and
during the past week a number of ar
rests have been made. In addition to
the arrests a large number of former
employees have been discharged with
out being given any definite cause for
their sudden dismissal.

Rochester, n. Y, Nov. 26.--Bowing
to the will of the church, but refusing
to make a "cowardly" retraction' of
the belief which induced the church
to terminate his ministry, Rev. Alger-
non S. Crapsey, rector of st. Andrews
church of Rochester, n. Y, Sunday
renowned his ministry in the Protes-
tant Episcopal church in a letter to
Bishop William David Walker, of the
western diocese of New York. In this
letter Rev. Mr.. Crapsey reatfirmed his
belief that the motion of the origin of
Jesus that a son of man was born
without human father is without
foundation in history"
He also asserted that when | say
of Jesus that he ascended into Heaven
/ do not mean and cannot mean that
with his physical body of flesh, blood
and bones he floated into space and

He asserts that he does not blame
his judges and, though he bows to
their will and feels that it is final for
him, he says Il am equally certain
that it is not final for the church.
When the great tribunal of free
thought has decided this contention,
the men who administer the church
on earth will conform to this decis-

Having let go of the temporary
and unstable interpretations or the
creed" he declares that he holds more
firmly to the gospel.

QUIET SUNDAY IN HAMILTON.
Street Car Strikers Rest, but May
Resume Rioting.

Hamilton, Ont, Nov. 26.-Sunday
was marked by unusual quiet on the
streets, contrasted with the riotous
scenes of the previous two days which
have marked the strike of street rail-
way employees here.
Some cars ran during the day and
evening In the outlying districts
some stones were thrown and blank
cartridges were exploded under the
wheels, but there were no hostile
demonstrations. The soldiers camped
in the armory under arms awaiting
the riot call, and the police reserves
at the city hall probably contributed
towards the peaceful day.
The officials of the railway company
do not believe the trouble is at an
end. however. The persons who were
injured in the riots of Friday and Sat-
urday are recovering.

House and walking over to the desk

No guests were in the lobby at the
time. Emery told them to get out,
that he had no money. The men stag
gered from the desk, apparently to
take their departure When they
reached the door, however, Rumble
braced himself against the negro and

found Emery dead, lying across the
hotel register. One bullet from Rum
