i ... fl .- rl O .... VOL. IX THE DALLES, OREGON, FRIDAY, MARCH 20, 1890 NO. 61 MM& M (fir. cti li ROBBER WIS KILLED Attempted Hold-Up on the Southern Pacihc. OFFICERS HAD BEEN FOREWARNED And When the Bobber Appeared Were Ready for Him. His Confederate Proved False. Visalia, Cal., March 19. For several days Sheriff Merritt has known that a train robbery was contemplated, and yesterday received information that train 20, going north, would be held np be tween Tulare and Goshen. He Bent deputies Vic Reed and Earl Daggett to Goshen, and took two others with him to Tulare, and wired O. J. Mead, a special officer of the railroad company, who came south and joined the officers at Tulare. The officers left town quietly one at a time, but -were evidently watched, as the gang at Goahem got word that the offi cers had left. Daggett and Reed got on the engine of train 19 and crouched down in the coal, watching, for signs of the robbers on each side of the track. About a mile out a Goshen man climbed over the rear of the tender and covered the engineer and fireman, with a rifle in one hand and a revolver in the other, ordering their hands up. As the officers turned he saw them and opened fire with his revolver, shoot ing both of them. - They returned the fire, Daggett's shot taking effect and killing the robber instantly. Daggett loaded again, but the robber fell off the engine. The train ran into Tulare and the wounded men were taken off and cared for. Officers boarded No. 20, and at the scene of the fight found the body of the robber and brought it to town. The dead robber was found to be Dan Mr Call, a laborer camped near here chop ping wood. It appears that when he found that the officers were preparing to defend train 20 he resolved to hold up the other train, not knowing the officers were on it. His confederates deserted him as he boarded the train at Goshen. . He is named Obi Britt, or Brittan Mc Bride. The officers this morning arrested St. Lovern, keeper of a notorious deadfall, and Charles Ardell, a barkeeper, and placed them in jail. John Haynes, a Salvation Army man, was arrested at his ranch, eight miles north of here, and it is supposed that one other member of the gang is to be taken. Reed's wound is slight. The ball passed through the fleshy part of his left arm near the ehoulder. Daggett is seriously hurt. ' The ball entered in front, passing through the seventh rib on the left side, and was taken out of his back. His left lung is injured. The robber was killed with' a shotgun, both barrelB taking effect in his abdo men. The shot passed through his right pants pocket, shattering his knife, entered the bowels, and ranged up through his body. t Lovern, arrested as an accomplice, is a notorious character. It was in his place that Assessor Frank Coffee was killed two years ago. A CATTLEMEN'S OKGIK. They Kan Thlsgt' to Snlt Themselves Whle Crossing the Atlantic. New Yoek, March 19. One of the greatest orgies that ever took place on the Atlantic ended .today with the ar rival at New York of the Atlantic trans port steamship Mobile from London. Thirty-one cattlemen from the West had engaged passage home. Before the ship left the Thames the men broke into the storeroom and took three cases of Irish and Scotch whiskey.

Sailors who were sent below to queil tlje disturbance were thrown out and it became evident it was as -much as life was worth to attempt to check the infuriated men. Bottles, . furniture, crockery and all portable decorations were thrown around the cabin, finally the men were locked below decks, and allowed to continue their debauch by themselves. The men were arrested at the pier. As direct proof that they, stole the whiskey could not be furnished, they were allowed to go free, much to the dis gust of the ship's officer. DIRECT FROM ARMENIA. An American's Report of the Condition of Affairs There. New York, March 19, W. W. How ard, who was sent to Armenia by the Christian Herald of New York in Sep tember last, to superintend the distri bution of money from the Armenian fund for the benefit of the destitute in Turkey, has returned to New York. "Of all black spots in all this world," he said last night, "the blackest is the heart of the sultan of Turkey. It is he who has ordered the massacres ; who Is directly responsible already for the death, by sword and hunger, of 50,000 people, and for the destitution of over 400,000 more. It is he who orders the murder of men, the destruction of whole provinces, the outraging of women and the abduction of young girls. "The excuse is made that the Armen ians are in a state of revolt. - The excuse is simply given for the purpose of hiding the real cause of the devil's work that is done. It is a crusade against Christian ity. ' ' . "The Armenains are hereditary Blaves of the Turks. The present trouble can ouly be stopped in two ways either by the immigration of Armenians to some other part of the world, or the complete extinction of the people. At present I do not believe there 'are many massa cres in progress, for the reason that the country is covered with ' snow. When May comes the massacres will begin anew. There are in Armenia 100 or more missionaries. They have distrib uted the $40,000 raised by the Christian Herald and have relieved much suffer ing. ( "I left here September 28, 1895. I had been in Armenia once before when I was the only one of the 15 correspond ents for English papers who managed to leave the country. This last time a re ward was offered for my head by the Turkish government. They said I was coming to the country to bead a revolu tionary party. In the village of Naza rabed I had an encounter with bandits, and again many times in crossing the border I had to fight my way." TO VISIT THIS COAST. Cornelias Tanderbilt and Chaance y De- pew Start West Tomorrow. New York, : March ! 19. Cornelius Vanderbilt and Chauncey M. ; Depew will start for the Pacific coast in a pri vate car Friday afternoon. With them will go John Hone, jr., a Wall-street broker, and Colonel George R. Fearing, of Newport. No route of travel has been determined upon and only a few of the details of the trip have been- decided upon. The sudden departure of Corne lius Vanderbilt, the executive head of the great Vanderbilt system of railroads, for the Pacific coast, will be of interest to railroad men all over the country. That he will be accompanied by Mr. Depew is considered significant by some in' the light of recent rumors concerning the reported desire of the Vanderbilts to secure control of the Pacific railroads in order to gain a through line to the coast. .
