RETIRED ARMY OFFICER GONE
Wife Asks War Department to Help
Find Col. CheeVer.

Find Col. CheeVer.
Leavenworth, Kan, June 23.-Mrs.
Benjamin H. Cheever has asked the
war department TO aid her in search
for her husband. Lieutenant Colonel
Cheever, retired army officer, whom
she had not heard from for y days.
Colonel Cheever, who lived here until
recently, was in Leavenworth a week
ago. He came here from Chicago,
where his wife resides, to lease his
house to Colonel w. P Evans, of Fort
Leavenworth. He told Colonel Evans
he was going back to Chicago. The
commandant at the fort, who has been
making inquiries in regard to Colonel
Cheever, says he has not been sean
here since the following day.
1t is supposed that Mrs. Cheever did
not know her husband was coming to
Leavenworth owing to her report to
the war department that she had not
heard from him for 1G days
It is not thought that the missing
husband has met with foul play.
Colonel Cheever was in the Third
cavalry at San Antonio, Tex, when he
was retired September 80, 1910.

WOMAN GETS $500 DAMAGES.
Not Enough Precautions Taken by
Mine Management.

Mine Management.
Columbus, Kan, June 2S-For the
first time in the history of coal mining
in Cherokee county. damages have been
recovered for the life of a shotdrer- A
jury in district court has returned n
verdict of $500 for damages for Mrs.
Miriam Cheek against the Missouri,
Kansas & Texas, because of the death
of her husband. Thomas Cheek, in one
of the railroad company's mines last
March.
Workmen in mine No. 16 broke into
No. z, an abandoned mine, and in the
gas explosion which followed four men
were killed. The assumption of risk
on the part of the shOtfirers is so large
that their death by accident is rarely
followed by any attempt to collect
damages.
In this instance Mrs. Cheek brought
suit for $4,000 on ground that the
company did not employ a fire boss
and faileG to make bore holes y feet
In advance. as required by state law
when working in the vicinity of an
abandoned mine. which there is rea-
son to suspect is filed with gas.

KILLED BY GANG.
Nan Found Near SaXman Bank
Robbers Victim.
Rice County Official Advances
New Theory.
SKULL SHOWS BLOW.
Murder believed to Have Been
Committed in Hutchinson.
Skull and Thigh Bone County
Attorneys Relics.

Hutchinson, Kan, June 23.-Dr. NJ.
Trueheart, coroner of Rice county,
is in Hutchinson consulting with the
county officials. following clue which
leads to the belief that the unknown
man found murdered in the sand hills
east of Saxman had been killed in
Hutchinson
There are certain things which
we have discovered which lead to the
theory that this murder was commit
ted in Hutchinson. and that the body
was hauled north to this hiding place
near Saxman and then concealed in
an Isolated place." said Coroner True
heart. in discussing the matter at the
sheriff's Office.
There is a possibility that the IN
known victim was slain by members
of the gang of bank robbers which
was hanging out in Hutchinson last
winter and which killed at least one
man. Tom Fowler.
At any rate, there is no doubt but
the man, whoever he is, was murdered.
Coroner Trueheart stated that the
skull was cracked, indicating that he
had been hit with a billy or sand bag
or some similar weapon which would
cause severe concuss or without
crushing. His face had also been
crushed in and teeth knC cked out.
Although ,he name of U. L. Xix
was found on the clothing. the identi-
dcatiOn of the body is no. yet com
plete.
Not Missing Man.
The sheriff's Office sent the descrip-
ton of Charles Rospaw, a HUtchin-
son man, who has been missing for a
month. to the officers of Rice county
and they answered today that the de-
scription of the clothing and body tai
lies as well as they can make out.
The body has become so badly de-
composed and the clothing in such
condition that much could not be as
certained
Rospaw. a Hutchinson butcher, had
been missing for a month, but 1t is
probable this body has lain near Sax
man for much longer than that time,
judging by its condition.
Il am satisfied this IS not the body
Of my father" said Frank ROspaN,
who works as a pressman at the Jay
hawker Press. II am confident that
ne is in Wichita, and safe and sound.
That is where he went when he left.
The county attorney Of Rice county
has retained the skull, a piece of the
scalp. a thigh bone, and the clothing
Of the murdered man for future de-
velSpments.
