STORY OF CARTHAGE.
The City's Long Fight With Its Water
Company.

Carthage. Mo-. Dec n.-Although this
city is suffering many of the depriva-
tons of a country village because of
the unusual action of the Carthage
Water company yesterday lin disman-
Ting it's plant and shutting off the
supply of water. the Inconvenience is
being hourly mini.nizcd BY the work
of the city officials in extending the
scope of the municipal plant
One-half of the city is receiving
normal supply of water from the city's
lew system and the other part of the
city is being supplied by establishing
temporary reservoirs and cisterns TO
which water is hauled.
The present predicadnent of the city
is the cul1ninati, of long controver-
sy with the water company The city
granted the company an eight year
franchise several years ago and after
two years the franchise was forfeited
because it is alleged the company fail

franchise. Since then the company has
operated without franchise.
Several months ago the city decided
to build a water plant of its own. The
company then made a proposition to
sell IT'S property TO the city for S1S0.000.
The city refused and let a contract
for its new plant. The company then
offered to sell for $4,000. it is said.
Again the city refused and the COM

MAY Be MURDERER
James Taylor, Convicted ON Counter
feiting, Faces Another Charge.

Following an investigation, it is believed
by local authorities that James Taylor,
who was recently sentenced to 1856 days
in the federal penitentiary at Leavenworth
by Judge John F. Phillips, sitting in the
federal court at Topeka, is the man who
twelve years ago murdered 1. G. Rhines,
postmaster at Wellston, Okla.
Acting upon information furnished him
by a friend, Patrolman G. w. Fribance,
who arrested the man during the summer
on a charge of counterfeiting to which
Taylor subsequently pleaded guilty, adj
dressed a communication to the authori-
ties of Lincoln county, Oklahoma, some
days ago. He also sent another COM
munication to Lee Todd, son-in-law of
the murdered man.
In both replies to Fribance'S interroga-
tories a description is given of James Tay-
lor, the man who was supposed to have
killed the Wellston postmaster. The
names being identical and the descrip
tions almost perfect have given rise to the
suspicion that the murderer has indeed
been caught.
Patrolnan Fribance, who carries
Shawnee county commission as deputy
sheriff turned over his information to
Sheriff J. D. Norton, who will send to
the Oklahoma authorities a picture of the
man recently sentenced, with view of
positive identified ton.
That Taylor feared Identification on
more serious charge than that which he
was under while confined in the Shawnee
county JAIL is the opinion of the authori-
ties who say that he was anxious to get

HURT IN WAY CAR.
l.. III. Holtwick Was Thrown Down by
Engine Bump"

While sitting in the way car of a
Missouri Pacific freight train at Rich
land, on his way home from a days
hunting trip, L. H. Holtwick was seri-
ously injured by being thrown from his
seat to the floor when the engine was
coupled to the train.
According to the story brought here
from Richland. Holtwick, with his
brother George and Fritz Bauman,
had spent the day hunting near Rich
land and when the train arrived went
to the way car and awaited the start
for Topeka. The train crew were
busy at that time switching some cars
about the yards. Without warning to
the men in the car the engine crashed
into the train with such force as to
throw all members of the party from
their seats. bruising all of them and
injuring Holtwick in such a manner
that he had to be carried home on
reaching Topeka 1t is not believed
any bones are broken but there seems
to be an injuryof rather a serious ma
ture to the hip joint. He is confined
to his bed at his home at 628 Jeffer-
son street.
Holtwick is cigarmaker and is
well known in Topeka. His brother,
Ben Holtwick, is employed at the
Eagles club rooms.
