transportation agencies have already
resorted to rate reductions in order
to discourage water shipments and as
the river transportation expands they
may be counted upon to utilize every

he said. Mr.. Blair believes that the
question of river transportation rests
entirely with the shipper.
"As a result of the operation Of the
Bernhard barges on the lower river,
in cooperation with the Streckfus
company on the upper stream, through

.CARB0L|C ACID

Wayland Man, Edward Casey, Drank
Small Phiai Of Poison Friday
Evening and Died With
In an Hour
NO REASON Is GIVEN
Man Purchased Acid and Started
Home, But Stopped In Restau-
rant Where He Drank
the Fluid.
nSpec,al to The Gate City1


WAYLAND, Mo-, March 1S.-Ed-
ward Casey drank carbolic acid in a
restaurant here Friday evening and
an hour later was pronounced dead by
the physicians who we're summoned.
Casey purchased a small phial Of the
acid from the drug store Of w. G.
Fletcher. He told the druggist that
he wanted the acid for his mother and
TALKING the bottle went ont Of the
store He went across the street to
Millers restaurant and poured a
small quantity from the phial into a
glass and added some water. He
drank the acid, which seemed to take
effect Immediately.
The victim was removed to his
home, only a short distance away and
although the physicians who were
called used every possible means to
counterfeit the effects Of the poison,
it was to no avail. An hour after
they were called, the man was pro-
nounced dead.
Coroner J. D. Rebo was summoned,
but on learning all Of the facts, de-
cided that no inquest was necessary
Inquests are held only where there
has been some mystery surrounding
the death. There was no mystery in
this case as to the cause Of death,
and no inquest was needed.
Edward Casey was thirty years old
and lived with his widowed mother
here in Wayland for twenty years. He
was born in Clark county. He had
many good qualities and was a quiet
and Industrious citizen. One older
brother, Joseph Casey, who lives four
miles northwest of Wayland, and his
mother, Mahala Casey, are the sor-
rowing relatives. The funeral party
will leave Wayland at 9 o'clock Sun
day morning, and he will be buried in
the Kahoka cemetery.
