SETTLE THEIR TROUBLES
The Cooley and Grow lawsuit Il
Compromised.

Cooley and Crow, the owners of the
local baseball franchise, have settled
their differences out of court. A couple
of days ago Cooley secured a restrain
ing order against Crow, which forbade
the latter to dispose Of his interests in
the local team without first effecting a
settlement with Cooley.
There was about $4,000 profit from the
past season for which Crow made no
accounting to Cooley and Cooley was
afraid Crow would dispose Of his inter-
ests and "skidoo" without paying Cool
ey his share of last seasons profits.
For this reason Cooley had Crow tied
UP via the district court restraining or
der route
Now it has all been settled. A long
conference late yesterday afternoon
patched up differences and Crow prom
ised to come through with the goods.
The details were arranged by the two
before Cooley's attorneys. H. J. Bone
and D. R. Hite. What they were has
not been made known but they were
satisfactory to both sides.
Both sides are now free to sell. It is
probable, however, that Crow will sell
to Cooley. Crow wants to leave and
Cooley wants to stay. Crow has an op-
ening in the Northwest and will proba-
bly, dispose of his interests pretty
cheap.

GIRL IN THE CASE.
Urbiu Angney's Friends Searching for
Reason for His Suicide.

Lawrence, Kan, Jan. 10.-That there
was some love affair connected with the
sad death of Urbin Angney at Kansas
university yesterday Is not doubted. The
queer note which Angney left was writ
ten on the back of a letter from Miss
Edna Anderson. young lady Of Frank
fort, Kan. Several letters from the
young lady were found in his pockets
after his death. However. there was
nothing to intimate that any estrange-
ment had taken place between the two.
However, Angney told a friend about
Christmas time that he did not have a
girl any longer and seemed to be great
ly discouraged over the affair.
Angney spent last summer in Frank
fort and there he met Miss Anderson.
The two were seen together frequently
and 1t is well known that there was an
attachment between the two.
Kansas City, Jan. 10.-'I heard from
Lawrence over the telephone this morn
ing that 1t was financial troubles" said
Miss Edna Anderson, in discussing the
probable cause of Urbin Angney's sui
eide. 1t was on the back of a note from
her that Angney scrubbed a few in
coherent sentences just before he leaped
to death. The note was a simple ac-
acknowledgement of a little gift he had
sent the girl at Christmas time She
was emphatic in her statement that
there was no love affair between them.
Miss Anderson, whose home Is at
Frankfort, Kan, just returned a week
ago from spending the holidays there,
to resume her piano study in Kansas
City. Her acquaintance with Angney,
she said, dated from last summer when
he played third base in a salaried base
ball team at Frankfort. Since then she
has seen him only twice, once when she
went to Lawrence to see football
game and again she passed through
Lawrence en- route for home. He had
written her, she said, that he would be
in Kansas City last week. and she heard
later that he was here, but she did not
see him. having answered him that she
would be busy when he came.
HE was very sober sort Of per-
son." she said, land II he had in mind
to do such a thing, would not be likely
to let anyone know"
Miss Anderson is pretty, blonde, mod
est and we'll poised. Her manner would
seem to convey that she never felt any
close interest in Angney's affairs, was
genuinelvs surprised and grieved to
learn the details of tragedy quite for
eign to herself. She is boarding at BOO
Park avenue. - Il
