Express Messenger Wounded but No body Killed in the Scrap. DISAPPEARED IN THE DARKNESS. Conflicting Statements as to the Amount of Money the Robbers Got Away With Other News. ' Wixfield, Kas., Oct. 14. A Coffey ville dispatch last night says the east boond Missouri Pacific train was held up by two robbsrs at Caney station. The robbers boarded the engine, compelled the engineer to pull out two miles, then uncoupled the express car from the rest of train and pulled it half a mile farther. Express Messenger Maxwell had blown out the lights and barred the door and refused to open it. The robbers fired through the door, wounding him in the arm. He then surrendered and opened the door. The robbers covered him with revolvers and compelled him to give tip the express packages. All the express money was transferred at ' Congress Springs, so it is not thought the high waymen got much. The identity of the robbers is unknown, but they are be lieved to be the same men who last week held up the station agent at Sedan, Kan. One of" the robbers entered the car, while the other remained on guard out side. The messenger's safe was opened, and the robbers hastily grabbed the packages and envelopes containing money, placed them in a small sack and jumped from the car. They then ordered the engineer to back the car, to where the train was left standing, and, after firing a few more shots as a warning, disappeared in the darkness. Both robbers wore heavy black mustaches, and their clothing was spattered with mud, indicating that they were mounted and had ridden hard. The express messenger claimed he does not know the value of the booty secured. Express officials and railway men at different points along the line claim that the robbers did not secure $500, if, indeed, that amount. It is pretty certain, how ever, that the robbers eecured several thousand dollars, as the train connects with the St. Louis, Kansas City and Southern's lines. When the train reached Tyro, the watchman was told of the robbery, but no effort was made to get a posse and pursue the robbers. This morning the railway people eent a squad of omcers to Tyro, ana will begin active seach for the men. - ' The notorious Kid. ' Tombstone, Oct. 13. News of the kill ing of a man by Kid and another Indian in the Swisshelm mountains yesterday was brought to town last night. Two wood-choppers at Moore's camp bad lost their horses and started out to find them. They saw two Indians some dis tance away, and, thinking they were scouts, one of them started toward them to inquire if they had seen anything of the stock. When within a few rods of them the Indians stepped behind a rock, and in less than ten seconds the unfor tunate man wag lying on the ground with a bullet . through-, his heart. His companion witnessed the deed and ran back to camp 'and: told: his comrades. After much persuasion he, consented to go.:,to the ' scene with a posse. They found ,the;.;dead',: body .with .the head nearly beaten off with.; rocks i which lay near by. ' From a description given by the-' survivor,-- It Via positive that the Apache, who cud the killing is no other than the notorious Kid. Alter the kill ing they rounded up about SO horses and went toward Sonora. The Chestnut Crop. Guaymas, Mex.', Oct. 13. News of the transactions of Evans and Sontag, the California train robbers, has reached Guaymas, and copies of San Francisco papers received here containing accounts are more eagerly pursued from - the fact that, two strangers, resembling the printed descriptions of Evans and Son tag, have been seen here by a number of persons, including United States Vice- Consul Hale, during the past week. On observing . that their movements were being watched, the two men disappeared and are believed to have taken passage on the steamer Korrigan for Santa Ro salia, Lower California. . THE EDITORS TISIT. What oar Fraternal Krothers Have ta ' say Abont the Dalles Convention. Heppner Gazette. On Tuesday morn ing, promptly at 7 o'clock, a. m., the Regulator sailed from The Dalles, with one. of the merriest, crowds that could have been conveniently gotten together, among which was your representative. The day was a beautiful one. The air pure, the atmosphere clear, the -world-renowned scenery of the Columbia never looked grander. The boat arrived at the Cascades at 11 o'clock where a landing was made, the ladies and 'gentlemen at once proceeding to the depot, where they met the members of the association, who had just arrived in a special car. They then proceeded to . the . government works toobserve for themselves the locks and canal, when after a thorough ex amination of the work that had been; done by the government, all expressed themselves in favor of an open river, and it is needless to say that they will urge same at the earliest date. ' Com. Review. The people of The Dalles and Spokane were unstinted in their hospitality and gave the editors a welcome that could not have been ex ceeded in cordiality. The visit to The Dalles has been productive of good. It gave them a view of the importance of the Columbia river. They : were all im pressed with the necessity of an open river and learned this from actual ob servation. . They examined the unfin ished cascade locks. : Now that they have seen for themselves what ought to be done by the federal government in opening the Columbia river, we hope to see them make some attempt by their influence in -demanding the completion of the same and also for the state to make an appropriation to build a por tage railroad from The Dalles to Celilo. Eugene Register. The Oregon Press Association, which met at The Dalles last week, has finished its labors and the editors have returned to their respective homes. From all acconnts they must had a good time, whether they accom plished any good for themselves or not, as they were entertained and banqueted almost every place they went. After their stay at The Dalles they went to Spokane and met the Washington Press Association, and here they were given a grand reception, after which they took the Northern Pacific to Tacoma. , The people always give the association the best they have in the town, and the an nual meeting is 'more of a picnic for the editors than anything else. Daily Dispatch. To convince a man that there has been something rotten in the construction of the locks at the cas cades, let him go up there and take a view of what has been done with the two million of dollars already expended. It is simply an outrage that the locks have not long since been completed. The money has been worse than squan dered, and we understand that the new plans under which they are now to be completed requires the destruction of most of the work done. All Serene Again. Homestead, Pa., Oct. . 13. The mili tary espionage," kept over this city 05 days, came to an end this morning. Al most the entire population of. the town gathered to witness the departure of the militia, but there Was no demonstration of any kind. At 10 o'clock every vestige of camp was removed and then the men marched to Munhall station, and em barked on a special train, in waiting. After the departure of the troops the crowd dispersed and the town took on its wonted quiet: General Wylie said to a reporter that, while be anticipated no further trouble, - the troops would be held in readiness and if circumstances required they would quickly return to Homestead. Sheriff M. Leary's force of deputies now numbers 30 men. . Frick visited the works this morning, but de clined to be interviewed. More Salt Found. Warsaw, N. Y., Oct. 14. At the Gainesville salt well in this field, salt was found at the depth of 2,455 feet. The drill having gone through a 30-foot bed again ' reentered the rock with a prospect of another salt stratum being found below. The first bed of salt is of sufficient depth for manufacturing pur Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report. A DAY FULL OF GLOOM. It is Said Mrs. Harrison's Death is Only a Question of . THE TRHEAD OF LIFE PARTING. Weakness so Great That Any New Complication May be Fatal. JLOST THE . TJSK , OF ONE LUSO. IVhat Dr. Gardner Says of the Case IOS- , Ing Rather Than Gaining: Ground Faint Hope. Washington, Oct. 13 The impression is general tonight that Mrs. Harrison's condition becomes graver with the pass ing of every hour. The day has been full of gloom to the White House family, and the shadow has even sunk deeper. A member of the honeehold said today, that it was not expected that Mrs. Har rison would see another Sunday, and , that she was still alive was simply re markable. - Her weakness since Sunday has been extreme, and, if posible, has . increased today. The thread of life is kept up by .stimulating nourishment every little while. Today at intervals of three hours she was given a raw egg fixed up in a palatable way with a little wine. Eggs and malt extract are about the only things she can take. The doc tors visit last night was between 7 and 8 , o'clock, and before 9 o'clock the massage treatment was given the patient.. Her. weaknees.is so great that it is not thought1 possible she can not survive any new complication, no matter how- slight. The president went out for his usual drive yesterday afternoon, remaining - away an hour. Dr. Gardner, Mrs. Har rison's physician, frankly acknowledged that Mrs. Harrison is in a very precari ous condition. He is equally frank in saying that the distinguished patient is losing rather than gaining ground, continuing, he said : "Her condition fluctuates from day to day. That, how- , ever, is not unusual in diseases of this character. She may live for a con pie of months. She slept a good part of the . day, but she has lost the use of one lung and the other is involved to such an ex tent that it renders her condition criti cal.. Iii my opinion, however, there is no immediate danger of a fatal termi nation. There is liable to be, at any time, an effusion of fluid: in the cavity of the pleura. This has f already taken ( place once and is liable to occur again. ' Let Him Escape. Hazleton, Pa., Oct. 13. Miss Lena Sclioller, daughter of Christopher Schol ler, of this city, awoke this morning just in time to discover a burglar in her room. With remarkable coolness she drove the intruder from the house, and saved the other members of the family, who had been chloroformed. It was shortly after midnight when Miss Scholler was aroused by a noise in the room. The figure of a man crouching behind a cur tain was plainly outlined in the moon light. Seeing he was discovered, the burglar made a break for the stairs and, disappeared. The young woman tried to arouse her sister, but failed. She rushed to the room occupied by her mother. She found the latter and a young sister motionless, and to all ap pearances dead. Hastening from the house, -Miss Lena aroused some neigh bors. When the neighbors arrived she was cooly applying restoratives to the other members of the family, who were soon revived. . Another Oregon Ticket. The Astoria Herald of the 9th has its flag hoisted over the following ticket : For President of the United States. -Benjiman Harrison. . For Vice President. Whitelaw Reed.
