This verdict ends one of the most sersational cases ever tried in Kansas. Chauncey Dewey, a young million- aire ranchman, went to’ Cheyenne county, Kas., early in 1900 to man- age the Dewey ranch, Soon after his arrival there he became involved in trouble with the Berry family, who were also prominent cattlemen, Trivial misunderstandings grew into serious differences, which culmi- nated in the killing of Burchard Berry at the home of Alpheus Berry in June, 1903, during @ fight in which Dewey and 10 of his cowboys were pitted against all the Bérrya, Dewey and his cowboys went to the Berry ranch to get a tank that Dewey had boughtin at sheriff's sale. The feud had grown bitter before this time, and when the Deweys started to take the tank away the ye he Calls the attention of their customers and frinds to their large stock and the low prices on all lines of goods.

ALMA AND CORDER ALSO HIT Fully Two Thousand Windows Broken and the Streets Fill- ed With Trees and Debris. Higginsville, Mo., March 81.—Fifty buildings are partly wrecked, one man is mortally injured and several others hurt, the town is in darkness and the streets strewn with debris as the result of a tornado and hailstorm | which struck this place at4:45 o'clock this afternoon. { The hail on the streets was a foot | deep within five minutes after the | storm came, and some of the stones i were as large as hen eggs. Dozensof ! trees in the town were blown down and several horses were killed on the street. Two animals still lay on one | of the main streets of the town us late as 8 o’clock to-night. The wires, both telegraph and tele- phone, are down and the town is practically ent off from the outside | world. Only one telephone line is working, and it is not giving good satisfaction. : The storm came without warning. The wind and hail came first and were followed with a terrific downpour of rain which flooded nearly every cel- larin the town. The storm came from the west, traveling eastward, It kept within a narrow path, av least the tornado portion, only about two blocks of the business por- tion of this place being damaged. Two other towns in this section were in the path of the storm and are said to be considerably dam- aged. They are Corder and Alma, both having populations of 500 or 600. According to the meager re ports which come here to-night, sev- eral houses in both places have been wrecked, but the exact extent of the damage is not known. The telephone wires connecting this place with the towns are down and communication will not be restored to-night. Tragedy Averted. “Just in the nick of time our little boy was saved” writes Mrs. W. Wat- kins, of Pleasant City, Ohio. “Pneu- monia had ax sad havoc with him and a ble cough set in be- sides. Doctors er beg he w Worse ev! jay.

The car on which Hulen was mo- torman had just rounded the curve at Fifth and Broadway when the construction car, which was south- | bound on Brondwaytrashed into it. | Three witnesses, including J. H. Cur ties, the conductor on the Observa- tion park car, testified that the crew made no attempt to stop the run away as it came down the hill. The motorman, they sefd, had left his place at the controller. Hulen was caught beneath the vestibule of the car and received injuries from which he died a few days later. Riot in Ohio Convention. Cleveland, O.. March 19.—A riot occurred fa the twentieth district econ gressional convention to-day. The Dick faction nominated {harles Leach chairman; the Foraker men named J.C. Ward.

The Foraker faction then nominated J. C. Beidler for congress by acclamation, but the Dick follow- ers balked and finally agreed to ac cept the nomination of Beidler, but made @ separate choice of delegates.

Dewey, McBride and Wilson were indicted on three separate counta, this trial being upon that of killing Burchard Berry. Feeling against the Deweys was so strong in Cheyenne county that Dewey, Wilson and McBride were taken to Topeka for safekeeping. The three men asked for a change of venue from Cheyenne county, al- leging that they could not secure a fair trial there. The petition was granted and the case was taken to the ditrict‘court at Norton. It re- quired two weeks to secure a jury. The trial was the most better ever held here. Dewey spared no expense to eecure legal talent to defend him, and the state's case was ably handled Kighteen ballots were taken before a verdict: was reached. It Saved His Leg, P. A.
