KANSAS WOMAN MISSIN
Heat Blamed for Unexplained Actions
at Winfield.

Winfield. Kan. Aug. so.-To the
extreme heat of the last few days is
attributed the mysterious disappear
ance of two women of different house
holds who are missing. No trace has
been found of Miss Mary Bilbee, the
pretty daughter, 5 years old, OF John
Bilbee. who vas last seen walking
through an alley. For more than "A
hours the police, aided by the girls
relatives and friends. have sought her,
but in vain,
Some time during the night. which
was oppressive in it's humidity, MISS
Fannie Butler of oxford, rose, dressed
herself and left home. Dazed and in
a beWiIdered condition she was found
late this afternoon as she wandered
aimlessly along country road nSe
miles from where she lived. she
could give no explanation of her ac-
ton.
There are 10 known circumstances
which would tend to WELD an infiu-
ence over the life of either woman,
and in both cases, that of Miss Butler
who has been found, and of Miss Bill
bee whose whereabouts are shroudeo
in complete mystery, the only tenable
explanation offered is that of the ex-
treme high temperature prevailing IN
this section during the last week.

grain to come to the American head of

more serious than at any time since
its inception, according to news re-

The news tells of 3, 500 cars already
billed to Port William over the Cana

There is no place to store grain when
it arrives at Port William. Thirty
million bushels are frozen on the
ground or in Western elevators.
In addition, there are 1000 cars OF
grain on tracks between Winnipeg
and Port Arthur, making 4, 500 cars on
the Canadian Northern alone.
The Canadian Pacific has reduced
the number of empty cars that are de-
livered daily to elevators at the Cana

that it is useless to load cars when
they cannot be hauled to destinations.
