Rides Over 100 Miles to Spokane, Going Throagh ReKUUred Mali at Hla leisure. Spokane, Wash., March 1(. A umtni all the airs and authority of a veteran posloface Inspector, a dar tni highwayman boarded th Orat Northern westbound Oriental Lim ited train Just aa It pulled out of Bonner'a Kerry, Idaho, early Sunday morning, and holding the two mall clerkt at bay at th point of a re volver, locked one of them In a clothea closet and tied the other to a chair with ropea, after which be rode a distance of 109 mllei Into Spokane, pending three hour and 40 minutes rifling registered mail, loading and unloading mail sacks along the route and puffing complac ently at a cigar the while. The lone robber dropped olt the train at a railroad crossing inside the cltw limits, carrying with him It la believed, much valuable plunder In a satchel. Just how much he ob tained la not definitely known. Mall Clerka Benjamin Stumpt and John W. Nysteun, who were held at the mercy of the robber, tell a re markable story of their experience. Locked In the small closet, hardly two feet equare, the latter almost fainted from suffocation after the train had palled into Sand Point, (4 miles went ot Bonnera Perry, and rapping on the door pleaded with the robber to allow him some fresh air. The bandld responded willingly and leaving the door ajar about an inch, secured It with a piece of rope. Twice later on the way Into Spokane the robber ceased his work of rifling the mall sacks to go to the door of the closet to Inquire as to how Nysteun was feeling. When Stumpf remonstrated with hla captor that the corda which bound him were cutting his wrists, the genteel robber generously loos ened the fetters and made every ef fort to make things as comfortable aa possible for his victims. While ripping open the registered sacks the pseudo-Inspector cut one of his fingers and many of the pieces of mall were blood-stained. Blood hounds were put on the trail of the robber, taking the scent from one of I the bloody packages, and followed a trail several blocks through the resl- donee district to a cnrline, where the ' scent was lost. It Is believed that i the lilKhwnymnn boarded a car and rode downtown. I When the train reached Spokane, j John Nysteun, one of the postal i clerks, was found locked In the clothes closet, where the robber had i put him, while Benjamin Rtumpf, the other clerk, was helpless under the table with a Jumper drawn over his head and his arms tightly bound. It waa then that the story of the rob bery waa first learned. EVANS PRAISED I1V SECRET AAT. Metcalf Sends Congratulations to Commander of Battleship Fleet.

Boise I'nlted States District Judge Whttaon. of Spokane, who last fall aat In pli.es of District Judge Deltrlca in the proceedings In con nection with the Indictments against John I. Wells, Frank Martin, and others, returned by the. Federal grand Jury here, has rendered a decision sustaining the second of two pleas In abatement filed and argued before him by the .defendants. This la the plea in which District Attorney Rulck was charged with misconduct before the grand Jury that returned the Indictments. The other pleaa filed by specific defendanta, one claiming that the statute of limitations barred prosecu tion and the other that immunity was procured because of testimony given by defendants before the grand Jury, are overruled. The effect of the ruling la to throw all of the cases resulting from the grand Jury Inves tigation of March, 1807, relative to alleged timber frauds, out of court. The defendants were John I. Wells, Patrick Downs, John Klnk ald, Louis M. Prltchard, William Sweet, Albert E. Palmer, Horace S. Rand, Frank Martin, James T. Bar ber and Summer O. Moon.

Lands of the Northwest to Be Bmr j veyed Millions for Coast De fense Guard Child'a Food, The opinion prevails generally that Representative Lllley ot Connecti cut has already produced sufficient evidence to warrant a thorough prob ing of his charges that the Electric Boat Copany ot New Jersey used Im proper moans to influence legisla tion In its favor. The congressional committee, which waa appointed by the speaker to investigate the Lllley chargea, promised the latter that if he ahowed that there were good grounds for bis accusations, the committee would call witnesses. w GE0RGB U LILLIY. Connecticut representative who de clares that the submarine torpedo boats are a failure. According to Ulley's present plans he will ask that Isaac L. Rice, presi dent ot the coat concern; Ellhu Frost, Its vice-president, and Law rence 8pear of New York be sum moned. Spear, according to the charges made by Representative Hobson, Is the man who offered him a place on the naval affairs committee If he "stood right" on the question of submarines. President Roosevelt, in a special message to the Senate, calls attention to the fact that the Senate commit tee has found that the charges of participation in the Brownsville riot, which caused him to dismiss Com panies B, C and D of the Twenty fifth infantry, were substantiated, and asks the Senate to pass a special law extending for one year the time within which those who establish their Innocence may be reinstated. Such a bill will be introduced. Senator Heyburn has secured the passage through the Senate of his bill providing for the survey ot all public land, reserved and unreserved. In Idaho, Oregon. Montana and Cali fornia. Under the present system, the Government only surveys land upon request of actual settlers. Mr. Heyburn says this ayetem tends to retard development, and also retards surreys, aa settlers don't like to go on unsurvoyed land. He will confer with the Oregon, Montana and California Senators and have an amendment made to the sundry civil bill appropriating suf ficient money to begin tbese surveys. He wants $100,000 for Idaho. The fortifloatlons appropriation bill, which will soon be reported to the House, will make adequate pro vision tor lnsreaelng the efficiency of the coast defenses along the Pacific Coast. It Is stated that the entire appropriation, save what Is necessary for maintenance of defenses on the Atlantic coast, wUI be devoted to the enlargement and Improvement of the Paclfle Coast and tnsaUar de fenses, several million dollars In all. It Is the Intension ot Congress to msks the fortifications on the Paolfic Coast In every way equal So the de fenses ot the harbors on the Atlantic.
