Promised Amends Fail Prompt Kansas Murder Case
In Seward County Liberal reports W L Coombs, a Rock Island foreman, failed to keep a pledge to support Mrs Mary Smith after the murder of her son Arthur in June 1902. Efforts to revive the old murder charge gain momentum as local indignation grows and a jury cannot be secured to try him. Coombs, freed from habeas corpus last year, has largely lived at large while seeking to avoid punishment. He later joined a Salvation Army revival and promised more, then reneged, renewing calls for accountability.

Stone cutters alliance cited in bid rigging scheme
A New York firm accuses a stone cutters association of adding 1 percent to bids and then apportioning contracts to spread a 10 percent overcharge, sharing about 600000 dollars annually with unions. The president, K J Giberson, warns of court action if workers do not return, and alleges unions pushed employers to join the association. The scheme allegedly revises bids before submission, inflating costs by up to 20 percent.
