RANCH OWNER BOUND OVER.
Said to. Have Sold Coyote ScaIps Killed
in KioWa to COmanche.

Coldwater, Kan, June 21.-For the
sum of 50, William Barlow, a wealthy
ranchman Of Comanche county, is fac
ing a term in the state penitentiary

false affidavits
1t is charged that Mr.. Barlow, who
lives near the Kiowa county line, killed
coyotes in Kiowa county and presented
them for bounty in Comanche county,
swearing that they were killed in the
latter county.
William Barlow is one of the wealth.
lest men in Comanche county. Among
his holdings is a 10000 acre ranch. At
the preliminary hearing he was bound
over for trial at the next term of the
district court in Comanche county. The
prosecution produced witnesses who
said they saw Mr.. Barlow kill the coy
otes from which he took the scalps he
presented for redemption by the coun-
ty. Witnesses said the coyotes were
killed $50 feet over the line in Kiowa
county.
Judge Price, Of Ashland, is of coun-
sci for the defense. Mr.. Barlow is
making a determined effort to clear him
self of the charges against him. and
the case will probably be taken to the
Kansas supreme court. The penalty in
the case of conviction for making false
affidavits and perjury is a term of seven
years in the state penitentiary.

IS THERE MORE BURIED MONEY:
Some $4,000 Thought to Be Yet Hid
ON the Zingrich Farm.

Fort Scoot, Jnue 21.-It was stated to-
day from an official source that there is
still missing $4,000 which was boarded
by the late Fred Zingrich. 1t is believ-
ed to have been buried on the Gross
man farm where the other thousands
were found. 1t was all in paper money
and not in gold as the other sums were.
The searching party which was piloted
to the place where the other money was
found, will this evening or in the morn
ing make another tour and hope to find
the missing treasures. There's no fear
but that it won't be discovered Mr.
Grossman, upon whose farm the money
was found, proved himself an honest old
German by telling the persons interest
ed where the money was buried. He
and Mrs. Peter Zingrich, the deceased's
aunt, both knew where the money had
been hidden and sacredly kept the Sc
cret. until the executor was appointed.
Then the secret was divulged-
Zingrich was hard worker and saved
almost all he drew from the railway
company. On nominal salary he
amassed quite fortune during the sew
enteen years he worked at the shops.
Besides the $500 in cash he had a
good farm. The only money he ever
banked was the 81, 800 which is reported
deposited in a bank out at Eldorado.
