IN Missouri Clash in Trying for
Agreement.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo, March 26,
rate negotiations between state and rail
way officials here during the past two
days, was apparent today after another
fruitless conference at the executive
mansion and a decision by the state Sen

probable that the roads will put the old
Scent fares into effect early next month
and that the Legislature will retaliate by
passing bills requiring the sale of mile
age books at the rate of cents q mile
and giving the state railway commission

FINDS STOLEN MONEY.
ers $4,000 Taken from Store
Year Ago.

NEW LONDON, Wis, March 81
Special. ole Stromberg, local section
foreman for the Green Bay 4 Western
railway, yesterday found, in a pile of
ties, purse containing $4,000 in checks
and notes which was stolen from the
Graef store at Hortonville several
months ago. The purse was found neat
ly concealed among the ties when the
pile was torn down for track repairing.
The identity of the robbers of the
Graef store has been a mystery since the
robbery early last year. Chief Lueck
believes that the band of tramps whose
mysterious fight last summer, near where
the purse was found, caused a riot call
to be sent in, were the robbers of the
Graef store and were fighting over a di-
vision of the booty or were IN a mlsun-
derstanding as to the location
The purse is intact. Some of the notes
are for sums rs high as 5000.
