WANT MYSTERIOUS SHOWMAN.
Police Asked to Arrest Eleven Men,
One of Whom Is Wounded.
Who is the mysterious showman who has committed a crime at Mena, Ark.? Two telegrams were received from Thomas C. Wingate, sheriff of that county, last night, asking that the police department of Kansas City watch all Kansas City Southern trains for a party of eleven persons who were connected with a show. One of the men, the sheriff said, was suffering from a gunshot wound and would attempt to go to a sanitarium. A reward of $100 was offered for the arrest of the entire company.
The police were watching the trains last night, but no arrest was made.
