He was a caller at Mr. Anger's apartments several times during "t day , but would not admit that he was a candidate for cither the office of marshal or postmaster.

The hearing of the charge ot assaulting Emll Machan brought against John Jackaon was not concluded yesterday. Another con tinuance was taken until this morning. When the ease was called Tuesday mornIng - Ing young Machan positively Identified hU assailant as John Jackson and adduced other cvldiace to sustain his charge. All of the Jacksons , wtio had testified , declared that John was at home at the time the assault was made , but they differed from one to five hours In the time ot his return and departure from home. A groccryman ' was produced who swore positively that I ho sold John Jackson a pound of cheese [ at 7 o'clock , and the groverymau's store Is ' located within a short distance of the spot where the attack was made. When this testimony was given two Incidents occurred , A younger brother of John Jackson arose and Informed the court that ho had made the assault and that his brother was not there. A few minutes afterward John Jack son went up to young Macban and de manded an exchange of hats. This brought to light some additional convincing evi dence. Purlng the assault the hats of both parties were knocked off , and when Jack- Bor. picked up one ho unfortunately got hold of Machan's. Machan was obliged to wear away Jackson's headgear , and the voluntary Identification In the court room was conclusive evidence. The efforts of the younger Jaokeon boy to get hid brother out only succeeded In getting himself In. It U possible that somebody will be prose cuted for perjury.

George Harding , the railroad man who was held up and robbed by a couple of well- dressed footpads on Tuesday evening near the Wabash freight offices , was reported by his physician to be out of dai.ger last night unless new complications arose. He was still dazed and was suffering a good deal yesterday , but recovered rapidly during the day. The footpads had evidently used n slungshot or loaded billy , and It vas a mat ter of small consequence to them whether they killed their victim or merely beat him Into submission. Harding Is still unable to give any definite description of the men and the police have practically nothing to di rect them in their search for the thugs. BUcct of Proper AilvcrtlNliiK. The pollco department yesterday received descriptions of a couple of men arrested at GarncU , Kan. , who are In custody with a remarkable assortment of stolen property In their possession. The matter was chiefly Interesting to the police because the descrip tion given of ono of the men not only fitted that of Whltcomb , the Cherokee robber , printed In The Bee yesterday , but was in Identically the same Unguage. iiFi\sii.iss : WO.MI-N AKNIINHIIN | Commit n DnMtiirilly Crime with No Ajiiuirt'iit Motive. KANSAS CITY , Nov. 18. Mrs. Folcy , a widow aged 65 years , and her unmarried daughter. Fenny , aged 10 , were found mur dered In their home near Liberty , Mo. , early this morning. No motive for the crime Is known. News of the murder reached police head quarters at 4:30 : o'clock this morning. Wil liam Folcy , aged 25 , a son of the murdered woman , had visited a neighbor yesterday evening , and returning home after midnight was first to discover the dead bodies. The gates to the farm were open , the cattle and horses loose , and the trout door ajar. Mother and sister were found in their bed room , dressed in their night gowns and bespattered with blood. The daughter lay upon the floor , her head resting against the bed , and the mother was stretched out , face downward , beside her. They had both been shot , the mother through the head and the daughter In the back. Further Investiga tion showed that the assaesln or assassins had first fired at Mrs. Foley through one of the front windows. The bullet lodged In the head of the bedstead. Both women evidently became frightened and ran Into the bedroom In the rear. The door was then forced open and the bloody work com pleted. After making a hasty examination of the bodies , the son gave the alarm to neighbors and a party was eoon gathered and sought for traces of the perpetrators of the crime. Finding no definite or tangible clew they rode to Kansas City , fifteen mllca distant , and reported the murder to the pollco de partment. Detectives were Immediately sent to Liberty from here , while In the mean time posses were being organized at the scene of the crime. Three -years ago a horse wcs stolen from Mrs , Folcy and a man named Hoover was convicted and sent to the penitentiary. His term recently expired , and It Is said that ho waa seen twice in- the neighborhood lately. A close search Is being made for him. him.Tho The coroner's Jury , which began an In vestigation of the tragedy this afternoon , was In secret session and upon adjournment was sworn to secrecy. Tonight there Is B strong sentiment against the son and brother , William Folcy , who first reported the murder , and though he has heretofore homo an excellent name , ho Is being closely watched. Mrs. Foley was a widow and one story Is that there had long been some fric tion In the family over her persUtent re fusal to partition the family estate among her three children. The murdered daughter Is said to have sided with her mother In the family dissensions. iiA\iin : HIS IIOIIY"ON"A THBK I.IMII. \cpro I.yiilicril ! > n Moll In the UN u n I VTny.

Curry , chairman of the fret silver democratic state central committee , illeil early this morning at the Savcry ho tel In tills city , whore ho has been sick ( or two moi.tlis. Mr. Curry's death Is reported to have boon the result of Injuries received while bcliiR Initiated Into a DCS Molncs lodge of Klks. lllood poisoning resulted from tlio Injuries and this causcdjlcath. As part of the Initiatory ceremony , ho was seated In a chair with a thin Iron sent , and a large lighted lamp placed under It. The object was to secure EOIIIC amusement , the candidate being expected to jump out of the chair when the heat became unbsar- able. But he didn't Jump. With some friends he had been out In the afternoon , and when he went Into the hall he was somewhat under the Influence of liquor. The presumption Is that when he was placed In the chair , blindfolded , hie sensibili ties were so far benumbed that ho was severely burned without knowing It or being able to move. The lookers-on saw him fairly cook for some time , wondcrtr.g at his nerve , till they discovered smoke rising from the chair. Then ho was taken out of It and found to be badly burned. Ills trousers were burned away and his flesh almost crisp. He was taken to his hotel and cared for by the best physicians. At his own request It was given out 'that he was suffering from ar.other trouble and the true story did not leak out till today. Even yet there Is much mystery about It. As a result of the Injuries blood poisoning set In very soon and from that time on there was almost no hope of saving his life. Ho grew worse steadily and for a large part of the last month of his life was un conscious. He manifested wonderful vltal- Itv. and lived a week after the doc tors pronounced his death a matter of only a few hours. The story of how his Injuries come about was given cut tonight by mem bers of the Elks lodge , after on evening pa per had published a much more sensational Etory. The Ellta mot tonight , but after their session had nothing to say except to repeat their earlier version. There has been no disposition on the part of Mr. Curry's family to blame the members of the order , who have done all In their power for him during the Illness. Mrs. Curry and her daughter , the only members of the family , earnestly desired that Mr. Curry's frequently expressed wish that the truth should never bo made public , should be carried out. Mr. Curry lived at Leon , la. , and was a lawyer. Ho was 48 years old and had been a leader In state politics for several years.

Kxlilliltlnii nf Wyoming Men from the I'lnliiH. LARAMIE , Wyo. . Nov. 18. ( Special. ) The cowboys of the Laramle plains gave a unique exhibition at the carnival Sunday afternoon. Nearly 1,000 people from this city went cut to see the sports , which consisted of a pro gram of riding , roping and other cowboy occupations. In the contest of riding buckIng - Ing bronchos the spectators unwillingly par ticipated. Lou Bath was attempting to ride Hunter Boy , a powerful , wild , black an lm.il. After Lou mounted the horse belted and ran with head down under one of the ring ropes. The rope caught the rider about the neck and stripped him from the saddle. With the rope caught about the horn of the sad dle the horse dished Into the crowd of spec tators , encircling hundreds of people and scoies of horses and wagons. There was a general stampede ; the rope caught under the wheels of one wagon and overturned It with Its occupants and the team ran away. Mounted cowboys finally caught the horse and Bath again remounted him. This time ho again jumped among the spectators. In two Jumps ho took the wheels off two wag ons and threw the occupants a party of women to the ground. Bath finally con quered him and rode him around the ring. Burt Schcnk , who has been with "Buffalo Bill" during the past season , had an excit ing experience upon the back of a beautiful bay , which pitched and bucked and finally ran away. Schcnk stuck to the saddle , but had to have the assistance of several cow boys , who herded his horse back to the ring for him. Charlie Mayflcld then had an ex perience with a big gray from the Hunter herd. Mayfleld's spur caught as ho waa get ting on the animal , which , had to be blind folded to get the saddle on , and did not have a cure scat when the bucking began. Ho was shot up in the air fully five feet above the horse , and when ho came down his mount was making excellent tlmo across the pralrlo with half a dozen cowbcys In pur suit. The animal was roped and brought back , and Moyfleld , who Is on old-time Texas rider , soon conquered him. TUe car nival ended Monday with a grand cowboy parade and a ball In the evening.
