struggle she bent over and finally
succeeded in bringing both the

later the man arose as though to
start for the door. Down he

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. IL.
Seventy-fve armed men, Off
icials and citizens of Rosedale. a
suburb of Kansas City, Kansas,
today put the finishing touches to
the egraded street where yester-
day the Kansas City and Olathe
interurban railway tracks were
torn up and the roadbed reduced
to grade by the Rosedale mayor.
j. r. WINNER, and band of de-
termined men.
I'VE have been oppressed by
this railroad long enough" said
Mayor WINNER, If they won't
give us justice we shall take it. /"
More than a score of the Rose
dale patriots, under command of
John Brawley, town marshal, re-
manned on guard at the railway
crossing all night.
The dispute which resulted in
yesterdays clash began several
months ago when the city reduc-
ed the grade of the street five
feet at the point where the rail-
way crossed and ordered the rail-
way to lower its roadbed to con-
form. This, city officials allege,
the railway refused to do. So
Mayor WINNER, with his town
marshal, his armed patriots, his
pillow, scraper and teams went
yesterday and took away tn e
hump, literally, from under the
nose of the railway president,
for w. B. Strang, head of the
railway, stood by powerless.
When his attorney in-chief, E.
S. Manany, tried to interfere,

torney and took him to ] al l.,
where, after some porley, he was
released on bond. Exponent.

SIX STATES SUFFER
FROM SUNDAYS STORM
TO TAP RICH new
COAL FIELDS.

ELKINs, w. Va. ,Aug.4. -Furn-
fishing an outlet through the Pitts
burgh and Lake Erie to the lakes
and through the western Mary
land Railway to tidewater for the
vast inland coal fields tributary
to its line, the Belington and
Northern Railroad Company pro-
poses to build through from Fair
mont to Elkins, following the
course of the Monongahela river
to Grafton and the Tygart Valley
river to Belington, where the
new road will connect with the
Western Maryland it is learned
upon unquestionable authority.
The line is already in part graded.
The transfer the Guffey coal
holdings in Marion, Taylor and
adjoining counties to the interests
which control the Belington and
Northern, recently effected, is
significant in it bearing upon the
continuation of the line of the
Belington and Northern beyond
Fairmont.
Under law passed by the last
West Virginia Legislature, which
prohibits one railroad from hold
ing any stock in a competing line,
the Baltimore and Ohio was
forced to relinquish its holdings
Of one third of the stock of the
Belington and Northern a d
Northern and on last Thursday
the Baltimore and Ohio ceased to
be interested in the Belington
and Northern. One-third of the
stock of the Belington and North
ern is held or was held by the
New York Centeral, the dominat-
ing factor in the Western Mary
land Railway.
AS long as the Baltimore and
Ohio could count upon having the
long haul on the coal received
from the Belington and Northern
it was willing to make connection
with the Belington and Northern
at Fairmont, but it has now be-
come apparent that the Belington
and Northern never in tie n d e d
that he Baltimore and o O
should have the long haul and
that to get the coal to seaboard
all that was necessary was to
connect with the Western Mary
land and ship the coal out by way
of Elkins, Cumberland and Balti-
more Coal for the lakes and the
West will be turned over to the
Pittsburgh and Lake Erie at
Connellsville.
