kRousnEY CASE STILL MYSTERY
Officers Without CIew to Slayer OF
Santa re Secret Service Man.

That the acquittal of Harry VIII
liams recently in the district court
here leaves the officials of the coun-
ty without any clew whatever to the
murderer of Joseph Krouskey is
9dmitted hy the officials today.
Krouskey was killed in the local
Santa Fe yards in February, but eV-
cry effort of local officials and those
of the Santa Fe to locate the killer
have proved unavailing. The
Santa Fe offered substantial re
ward, for Krouskey was one OF the
eompany's best secret service men.
It is becoming the general opinion
that the murderer of Krousiy board
ed a passenger train in the yards
after Krousaey was killed and made
safe getaway, perhaps on the
rods. The next morning after the
murder Sheriff Bart Murphy's blood
hounds were placed on the trail.
They followed the scent from the
passenger station, near where the
killing occurred down past the
freight, coal chutes and cattle
yards. Here they lost the trail
evidently on a certain rail This
gave rise to the opinion that the
murderer had crawled underneath
the train and escaped on the rods.
Several times Murphy's dogs were
started from the passenger station
and each time they quit at the rail
To get past that point was impossi-
ble. although every effort was made
to take up the trail farther down the
track
Williams, a young negro, was ar
res ed shout six weeks ago and in
dicted Two other negroes swore he
was the man who killed Krouskey
but not enough evidence coEld he
secured to convict him in the minds
of the jury and he was acquitted
KrousEey lived in Topeka, Kansas.
