Another Trouble.

ST. LOUIS, September pa new
and mysterious disease has attacked
the horses in this city, called Pink
eye." The disease is spreading, and
its progress much resembles epizootic.
About one third of the horses are
suffering from the disease, which first
appears in the horses eyes. These
become watery, and the eyelids are
inhamed and run in an offensive man
ner. The neck swells and the limbs
increase in size, so that the horse has
to be retired from service. "Pinkeye"
first made its appearance about four
weeks since. Ten cases have been
fatal, and in about ten days the disease
runs its course. Livery men are very
reticent on the subject.

A MILLION bushels Of coal from the
Kanawha river are due at Cincinnati
to-day. A slight swell of four feet or
thereabouts in the Ohio, above Gin
cinnati, set that amount aAoat to a
market much in need of supplies. The
rise OF the river failed to be of service
at Pittsburg, where many millions Of
bushels of black diamonds are afoat
and ready to move south as soon as
the water is deep enough. The stock
of coal at supply depots between Cairo
and New Orleans is running low, and
from appearances, cannot be replen-
ished for an indefinite period.

very small increase in Southern con-
sumption, but it is claimed that full.

be marked increase in Southern con
sumption during the ensuing year, as

MADRID, September 23.-In Con-
gress to-day on the Deputies proceed
ing to take the oath, Martos and Cas-

oath because it was not consonant with
liberty Of conscience. The latter re-
ferred to the expulsion Of Bradlaugh

LONDON, September 23.-The Lam
Get, discussing the case of President
Garfield, says: The bullet did not
wound any vital part in its path, and
had the sinewous wound it made closed
up, all would have been we'll. That
the wound did not heal because its
walls were bruised and SO injured that
primary union was impossible. The
retention Of the pent up and putrid
matter in the wound almost insured
absorption of septic poison and death.
1t may be regarded as an open ques-
ton hew far successful an attempt to
render the wound aseptic might have
been. 1t would be unjust to blame

DR.. Bliss, $4,000; Drs. Hamilton and
Agnew, $4,000 each; DR.. Reyburn at
800 per day, $9OOO; Drs. B,rnes and

each. The bills for food, carriages,
medicines, instruments, railway ex-

been slow to be offered, but when the

roll in fast enough. As YET it has not
been promulgated from what fund the

THROW UP YOUR HANDS.
Road Robbers Clean Ont a Train
South of Little Rock.

LITTLE Rock, September 23.-A
Gazette Arkadelphia special says: The
train on the Iron Mountain and
Southern railroad, which left Texar-
kama at eight o'clock last night, was
boarded at Hope by three young men.
After passing Prescott, and when
near Kennett, they suddenly drew
revolvers and ordered the conductor to
stop the train, which he did. They
then proceeded to make the passen-
gers throw up their hands and went
through them, getting seven hundred
dollars. Then they visited the ex-
press car, opened the messengers sale,
and took thirty thousand dollars in
currency. Before leaving the train
they threw package containing fifteen
thousand dollars back, under the i'm
preston that it was valueless.
A second dispatch says it was eight
miles south Of Prescott that the three
men presented cooked revolvers to the
conductor and bade him stop the train,
which he did as quick as possible. He
was in such hurry to stop the train
that he pulled the bell cord in two.
All three robbers went to the express
car, made the messenger open the
safe from which they took about six
teen thousand dollars, which was
about half the money there was in it.
They then went through the coaches
and robbed the passengers of eight
hundred dollars. All three men were
very young; none were masked, or
had any beard.
Another Account.
ST. Louis, September 23.-A Post
Dispatch special from Newport, Ark,
says: The passenger train on the Iron
Mountain road was robbed last night
by five masked men, whs halted and
boarded the train, forced the express
messenger to open the safe and then
proceeded to rob the passengers.
Eighteen thousand dollars we're OBJ
tanned from the safe. 1t is claimed
that between forty and fifty thousand
dollars will not fall short of the loss.
A cotton dealer, named J. S. Akin
son, lost twenty-five hundred dollars.
The robbers are said to be mere boys,
and it is belived they will be captured
short.
Governor Churchill will doubtless
offer a reward of twenty five hundred
dollars, aud the railway company as
much more for their capture.
