ST. LOUIS.
RObber Carried 10 TexRs---HeaVy
Movement of English Steel
Rails.

ST, LOUIS, March l7.--Some days
ago r. G. Welsh, formerly of Texas,
was arrested near California, Mo-, and
taken to Dallas. Il dispatch from that
point says he is charged with being
the leader of band of men who rob-
bed the Texas Central railroad few
years ago; an act attributed to notori-
GUS Bill Bass and his gang, and that
he is now undergoing examination be-
fore the U. S. commissioner at Dallas.
Two barge loads of steel rails ar
rived here last evening from New Or
leans. They belong to the Denver
and Rio Grande railway, and will be
forwarded via the Missouri Pacific
and Atchison, Topeka and Santa Ft
roads to Pueblo, Colorado Two
thousand tons of steel rails are in
transit from England for the same
roads, and will arrive here via New
Orleans in the immediate future
A large number of locomotives and
cars for same road, also, have just
been contracted for with eastern en-
gine and car builders.

1t seems as if Senator Ben Hill
smoked Malone out little too soon,
quite too soon, in fact, for democratic
comfort. This assault on Malone was
unprovoked and uncalled for, and this
may have had the effect to determine
the fiery little senator to cut loose
from the democratic side of the senate
altogether. Anyone can stir up a
tiger with a pole, but when the tiger
breaks out of his cage the pole is no
longer ofany service, and it may take
a hundred men to get him back.
Whatever Malone may have intended
up to that moment, he is determined
to cast his lot with the republicans.
Possibly he would have gone that way
anyhow, but Hills speech left him no
other alternative. Hill must feel like
the boy who twisted the cats tail once
too often.

TIE sensibilities of all decent men
in this country regardless of politics
or creed, will be shocked at the an
nouncement thata so-called greenback
organization ia San Francisco has en-
dorsed the assassination of the czar.
That a monstrOus crime should be ap-
proved even by the worst fanatics in
this country, is matter of shame and
regret, which will be universally con-
demned. This is specimen of Dennis
Kearney greenbackism, the kind that
demands divide of other peoples
property and are too lazy and mean to
work. The American people are not
prepared to indorse assassination, and
will make it warm for those who do.
Such crimes were condemned alike
north and south in time of war when
we glared with flashing eyes at each
other. And the people are no more
prepared now to sanction public
assassination, although in q foreign
land, than they were then.

BIG LAND SVVINDLE.
Great Excitement Among the
Victims at Cleveland.

CLEVELAND, March 1.-THE ar
reFt of Van HiSe & Linn, land agents,
by the United States authorities on
the charge of conspiracy to defraud
the government created great excite
ment in real estate circles here. Since
the arrests many people have come
forward producing deeds made out by
Linn and partner, and the officers
claim to have proof that the men
forged numbers of signatures TO
deeds.
John X. CorWin, arrested with Linn
and Van Elise, but against whom the
charge Of conspiracy was not distinctly
made, has been rearrested and charged
with swinGling the government. Bail
was fixed at $4,000. The officers claim
that they found several blank deeds
acknowledged by Corwin, and con-
slider this good ground for charging
him with conspiracy. Proofs are ac-
cumulating against the men, and it is
claimed they have secured possession
Of Cleveland lots in exchange for Mis-
souri, lands.
Assistant District Attorney Meyer
is looking for advices from St. Louis
concerning the transfer of the men to

when the Russians told them they
were free to return to the province of
Khorassan, from whence most of them
had been carried off by the Tekkes.
Within the fortress the Russians
found about four thousand Turkoman
families, or about $4,000 individuals,
whose astonishment knew no bounds
when, instead Of being butchered or
enslaved, they were treated with scru-
pulous kindness and confded to the
care of the Russian Red Cross society.
