BANK ROBBERS BAGGED.
Trapped by a Pretended Confederate
and Shot Down by a
ConcaaIad Euap6

WICHITA, FALLS, Texas, March ga dar-
ing attempt was made to rob j. G. Ames'
bank this afternoon by party consisting of
Charles E. Bagley alias Eapthman, Wiley
Hayes, boy eighteen years old named
Frank Parmented, and John Kinkaid,a Texas
ranger, the latter acting with the robbers
for the purpose of trapping them. The pro-
prietor of the bank had been notified of the
Intended robbery and Sergeant Grimes of the
state ltroops was stationed in the vault.
The robbers rode up to the
bank at $50. Bagley and Kinkaid entered,
the former smoking pipe. Hayes and Par
menter held the horses outside, Bagley COW
cred the cashier, Ashby James, with six
shooter and commanded him to place all the
money in bag. James laughed at the idea
and his hilarity enraged Bagley, who with an
oath, presented pistol at the cashiers heart.
Sergeant Grimes, in the vault, instantly fired
the contents of a double shot gun into
Bagley and Kinkaid, followed with six
shooter. Bagley staggered and fell with a
bullet in his FOREHEAD and the buckshot in his
breast. A book agent named Wear, who
happened to be in the bank, rushed out,
when the boy Parmenter emptied pistol at
him. The teller of the bank, stationed in a
store opposite, thinking Wear robber, held
him at the muzzle of Winchester. Lieut..
Schmidt, another ranger, fired volley at
close range on Parmenter and Hayes. Mel
Their was hit and Hayes escaped. The
boy told his companions as they
entered the bank that he would be
there, dead or alive, when they came
out, and was captured at his post. He did
not finch under the fire of the officers. Bag
ley lived several hours. The coroner's jury
verdict was justifable homicide. One juror
was brother-in-law of the notorious James
boys, but worthy citizen of this place. Bag
ley had on his person letter of membership
in Baptist church, the Pilgrims Rest, at
Etoah, Ala. Hayes and Parmenter are from
Kansas.

EASTERN POOL TROUBLES
A 1211c Rate Made By the Lacka-
wanna Route On Wheat.
The Secret of Fink's Late Reduction of Bull.
lion and Lead Rates.
Prospect of an All Summer Fight on Both
East and West Bound Rates.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. I

CHICAGO, March 26.-The eastern pool sit
uation grows more discouraging day by day
and it is generally feared that the organi-
cation is doomed TO dissolution While
heretofore the reported reductions in grain
below the 15c rate have been backed up by
nothing but the strongest circumstantial
evidence, yesterday absolute testimony that
1212c rate was quoted was not wanting.
a commission firm received from New York
an order for 100, 900 bushels of wheat for
eXpart, conditioned upon the receiving Of a
1917 cent rate per hundred pounds to New
York. The transportation was offered to
several agents and refused, from the fact
that they had iron clad orders to look at
nothing less than the tariff rate. The deal
was finally closed with the Lackawanna at q
1917 cent rate, the consignment going to
Buffalo via the Nickel Plate.
Strenuous efforts have been
made to keep quiet any quotation under 15c,
but the vigilance of agents who are under
rigid instructions to maintain rates has at
last tangibly located violations which have
been known all along to have existed. There
is little doubt that this rate will be generally
cornered by the pool lines, and a lively
tussle will have become fully inaugurated.
The true inwardness of the reduction
in pig lead and bullion rates has been
discovered. The Northwestern has been
holding the bulk of bullion traffic from the
Black Hills, and that company proposed TO fix
itself solid for a more complete control of
the business. To that end an agent was sent
to the various eastern lines to secure if posi-
ble some concessions on the thirty cent rate
from Chicago to New York. They wanted a
twenty cent rate, and the line granting
it would be guaranteed the whole
Of the Northwestern's bullion business. The
Red Line finally went into the deal and thus
the trouble began. Other lines, in self pro-
lection, we're compelled to make the same
rate, and, having complained to Commission
er Fink, the reduction was ordered, pig lead
taking the same rate. Dealers in this COM
modify were naturally dissatisfied and de-
manded an equal reduction. There was
no alternative and pig lead was
plac[f on the same footing. The
lumber dealers have now bobbed up
serenely with request for the same privi-
leges accor ded to others. 1t was rumored
yesterday that two lines had acceded to their
demands and an official reduction is likely TO
follow, There is L growing fear that the
east bound Generalization will extend before
long to weat bound business. The New
York Central people acre displeased at the
latest reduction on east bound traffic and
they propose now to make clean job of it by
drawing west bound business into the deal.

NEW YORK.
Especial Telegram to the Clio be.

New YORK, March 26.-The excitement
centered in Pacific Mail this morning. 1t
fell to 81 shortly after the opening and on
a sharp rally recovered to 5215. This was
followed by decline of one per cent. in
Delaware 81 Lackarwanna and Reading. The
rest were comparatively steady, while Erie
second mortgage bonds rose to co.
They are heavily oversold and loaned
at a small premium. Pullman continues
firm. Business at the town is brisk, the
works turning out about twenty freight cars
per day. Manhattan Elevated sold al 4S, a
decline of 9 points since the 18th inst. There
was heavy trading in the coalers and quite a
fight on Reading at about "a, at which
price it seemed to stick. North
ern Pacific preferred rose to 49,
during the afternoon hours and Western
Union telegraph was a strong feature. Ore
gon Transcontinental followed the Northern
Pacific and gained point also The market
was not active at the last but stocks were
quite firm and show a gain in most cases
over the figures of twenty-four hours ago.
Some of the better class of stocks, like Alton
and Chicago, Burlington & Quincy did not
afford quotation to-day.
Henry Clews & Co. say: s'The
market opened weak and floundered
about with moderate fluctuations during
the day, but closed strong. The
change for the better was based on report
that the eastern trunk lines had been repre-
scented at conference with view Of har-
monizing the troubles which have caused the
present extreme low freight rates. While
nothing definite was known during business
hours of the result, still it was assumed at the
exchange that o favorable understanding
would likely be reached. A good influence
was also produced by the prospect of Gould's
brunette countenance appearing on the street
tomorrow. This gave encouragement to many
to take brighter view of the market, as they
anticipate renewal of his manipulations,
backed by Vanderbilt's strength. Wheat
again touched lower range, the May option
falling to S7T. As this is less than the cos t
of production and discouraging to increased
acreage it looks to us advisable to cover shorts
and rest awhile before taking another crack
at it'll
