KANSAS City, Mo-, March 28.-Jno.
Laird, one Of the indicted Blue Cut train
robbers, made confession this afternoon
at Independence. He says seven men
were with the old gang which was headed
by man he supposed to have been
Jesse James. That it was members of
the old gang who entered the express car,
and went through the train, and that al
the country boys did was to keep up the
racket on the outside. After the robbery
the entire party went into the woods q
short distance from the track, where the
leaders, who had all the swag in their
possession, said to the boys: i tttBoys, we
haven't got time to divide. They are
too hot after us; and we did not get the
money we expected anyhow. But we
will all meet on the right fork of the
Blue next Wednesday evening, just. one
week from the night of the robbery, and
we will divide them.'' So with that the
old gang mounted their horses, no richer
than when he started out. Before the
night arrived which had been set for the
divide, most Of them had been safely
jailed, and others were fleeing the cnnn-
try as rapidly as possible. Laird de-
clares his belief that the couAtEy boys
were victims of a put up job. s4<$5sS$ .sS 81, /.

S,cai,se and the Sergeant.

i. WASHINGTON, March 28.-It is pretty well
understood that one of the principal points
upon which Judge Advocate General Sweim
bases his opinion in the Mason case is that
the charge of assault with intent to kill was
not fully established by the evidence presen-
ted. Another point is that Mason was not
arraigned on a proper charge, as the most
serious offense FROM the military point of
view was seditious conduct under circum-
stances that might have resulted in mutiny.
The approval of the report by the president
would result in the discharge of Mason from
custody, and render him exempt from fur
ther proceedings on the part Of the military
authorities for the same offenso. H.,
