Not the Man Wanted in 1915 New York Murder Case

Police find a photo resembling the Galena prisoner in the crowd, triggering intense media attention and cautious publication.

Kansas Experimental Station Branch Sought in Southeastern Kansas
Farmers urged to back a proposed Kansas Experimental Station location in Southeastern Kansas. Previous local efforts failed to provide needed information, so a district wide campaign seeks legislative passage and community endorsement to enable a station, with exact site to be decided by authorities.

Galena Bunch Still Obstinate Over Railroad Franchise
Officials of Southwest Missouri railroad and Galena merchants failed to reach an agreement on the franchise Tuesday night. The city divides, with a strong faction pressing Mr Rogers to run cars from Joplin to Baxter around via Seventh street, which he opposes though offering to run half the cars that way. The issue remains open with hopes of future talks, likely to be put to Galena voters.
