Rail workers tear up rails near Douglas County
Word from Lawrence reports gangs of railroad men began removing rails from the old Carbondala line starting toward Lawrence from the Douglas County end. Two camps near Belvoir are said to be working, with an order from Judge Hook for material collection. County Attorney Brownell investigates as rumors place the gang at South Pacific and Santa Fe camps. The coach sale is scheduled for next Monday at the Lawrence court house, potentially clarifying the motive.
