THERE is growing desire, conspicu-
ously in the East, for the revival Of the
bankrupt law. The subject will be press
ed before Congress at the present session by
commercial men who are interesting them
selves in the subject, and it will be mat
ter of no surprise ii some sort of law
should be enacted. The National Board
OF trade at Washington last week unani-
mously adopted report relative to the re-
enactment OF bankrupt law. The report
holds that in such re-enactment, there are
two cardinal features which should be
fully recognized, viz: First that expenses
incurred in the administration Of the law
should be reduced to the lowest possible
figures according 10 fixed schedule OF
charges; second, that all exemptions al
lowed to debtors should be particularly
specified in such law, and should be il
lieu of all State exemptions.

REPUBLICAN, leaders al Washington, feel
ing that they have little hope Of electing
the next President, are discussing the pro-
priety of changing the mode of electing
Presidential Electors in the State Of New
York, so that the Republican party can Sc
cure more than the lions share Of Electors.
The project may be undertaken, but the
"trick" may fail with the people neyerthe-
less. Having seated one President who was
moi elected, it is not likely the Republicans
will be allowed to seat another one through
trickery or innovation.

A DESPERATE STRUGGLE ON A RUN
MING TRAIN.
Llttle RocN NE } Ga4ette

Little Rock Ark. Gazette,
The police force is now on the LOOKOUT
for man whose presence Is greatly de-
sired, and though his career in certain
direction is no doubt ended, yet his pres
ence in the court and then in the penlten-
tiary would add much to the enjoyment
of those whose business it is to detect viola
lions of law and see that the violators are
punished. r
For some time a very daring series OF
robberies have been perpetrated by bold
and. OF course, bad men along the line OF
the Iron Mountain Road between this city
and Benton. Al certain points thieves
board the cotton trains and remain con-
cealed until a favorable place was reached,
when they would roll of several cotton
bales and then leap from the train. The
cotton would then be sold, and done in 50
sly manner that no questions were asked
The railroad company had to stand the loss,
and numerous attempts were made
to detect the robbers, but their work was
so well planned and so skiliiully exc
cuted that no discovery was made.
Chief Counts and certain other officials
having been apprised Of this illegal, and 10
certain parties, disastrous cotton market,
held consultation and appointed COM
mittee. The dumping place was dlsco7-
cred. Constable WaShmood was sent down
by rail at night to meet an upcoming train,
while Policeman Adams and Little Billy,
the sergeant, were sent down horseback to
act as rushing" party when the time Tor
action came. Mr.. Washmood meeting the
up.coming train, changed cars. He saw no
suspicious characters. The dumping
place was passed He was just about to re
linquish all hope Of detecting the robbers
when suddenly u man crawled out from
somewhere and mounted the high cotton el.
ovation The officer crept in that direction
With a mighty effort the man who had Sc
suddenly made his appearance tumbled 4
bale Of cotton from the train. Mr.. Wash
mood sprang forward, drew revolver and
grappled the man, throwing him on his
, breast Placing the muzzle Of the pisto
against the man s neck the officer exclaimed
If you try TO get up will shoot YOU.
II won't get up the man replied; 81
, won't do anything" but ere he had finished
the last words he struggled violently
During the struggle the pistol was knocked
away Striving desperately and replacing
the weapon as best he could, the Office
fired. The man threw his body over The
, edge Of the cotton bales. In momen
more both men would have fallen, bu
realizing his danger the officer released hi
hold and the cotton dealer fell over. Mr.
Washmood ran back TO the end of the ca
and leaped off. He followed the man fol
some distance, but did not succeed il
' catching him The blood on his clothe
proved that the man had been wounded
and the officer thinks that the muzzlc o
the pistol was against the robbers arm
: when the shot was fred.
The bale of cotton was recovered Tht
police and other officers arc on the "watcl
out" for the wounded man.
