BANDITS FOILED,
An Unsuccessful Attempt at Train Rob
berry In New Mexico.

ALBUQUERQUE, June 18th. = Monday
night, when the west-bound passenger train
stopped at Dorsey, on the Santa Fe, eight
masked men boarded the platform of the
baggage car and the tender of the locomo-
tive, and when at the whistling post, half
a mile from the station, two of the would
be robbers crawled over the coal tender and
ordered the engineer to stop the train.
The engineer replied by shutting down
the steam and applying the air to the
brakes, and took to the running-board in
front of the locomotive. The fireman was
confronted by one of the robbers, who held
a gun in his hand. Nevertheless the fire.
man jumped while the train was in mo-
ton, and took the back track, where he no.
tihed the train men of the second section.
The first section was occupied by de-
tachment of soldiers, and it is supposed
that the escape of the fremen and the
presence of the soldiers as the robbers
boarded the platform OF the express cars so
intimidated the robbers that they took to
the prairie in the darkness and made their
escape. The detachment of soldiers were
without firearms, and in fact know nothing
OF the attempt to rob the train.
The masked men had not fired and no
one but the engineer and fremen came in
contact with the gents of the road.

CHICAGO, June 13tb.-The most notable
event of the day, politically, was the ar
rival of B. f. Jones, Chairman of the Re-
publican National Committee, and the re-
cipient of the famous Florence letter from
Blaine. The rumor was in circulation that
he was the bearer of another epistle from
the man across the water, and that the new
missive would give Mr.. Blaine's choice for
the Republican Presidential nominee. Mr..
Jones was seen by representative of the
Associated Press this evening and asked If
he had such letter. He replied
No. sir, | have not. No communica-
ton of political kind has been received
by me from Mr.. Blaine since the Florence
letter"
Don't you think the situation calls for
further expression from him at this time,

No, ] don't. / think a great majority
OF the delegates will come here unpledged,

very outset. So the talk of what should
be done in the event of deadlock need
not be discussed"
Has Blaine ever intimated to you that
he would not accept the nomination if
unanimously rendered ?"
Most emphatically, no"
Chairman Jones said he wouldn't accept
the Craftsmanship of the National Com

TOO MUCH PEACE.
For Want of Something to Do, Nava

Officers Engage in Quarrels.
Copyright, 1888. by the California Associated Pressl
WASHINGTON. June 13th.-There are those
who believe that Secretary Whitney has
become dissatisfied with his post, and if he
could not get change of Cabinet duties
would prefer stepping out altogether, rather
than remaining at the head of the Navy
Department. His course of administration
has to a certain extent aroused the half
hidden antagonism of certain naval officers,
and many things have occurred which have
indicated an internal friction. For exam
pie, it is said the change in the accounts of
the Department did not suit the officers,
who are obliged occasionally to wait for
their money somewhat longer than before.
Then there has arisen q renewal of the
strife between the two elements of discord
in the navy -the line and staff-and each
side has petitioned the Secretary, until he
has at lest openly expressed sentiments
that showed an ill-concealed distaste for
this sort of work. One cause has been
often alluded to-the trouble between the
Secretary and Ordnance Bureau, occasioned
by slowness with which the armament for
the new cruisers is being made. The gun
factory at the Washington yard is only a
partial success, and it is said has irritated
him beyond endurance.

AGAINST THE WOMEN.
Alleged Conspiracy in Washington Terri
tory Against Woman Suffrage.

Copyright. 1855, blythe California Associated Press
VANCOUVER wv. IT,, June 13th.-A local
paper says: We learn from the most relia-
bic source that the bred Scott woman suf-
frage opinion rendered by Judge Nash of
Spokane Falls was a shameful, put-up Job,
in which ex-Judge Turner figured to his
ultimate advantage. 1t transpires that the
whole affair was an eT pdrte entertainment
which grew out of some election recently
held in Spokane Falls; that the case was
set on foot in Spokane Falls by the whisky
men; that the Prosecuting Attorney of that
district was an anti-woman suffragist, and
was instructed to aid, and did aid, the
prosecution; that ex-Judge Turner, another
avowed anti-woman suffragist, was en-
ployed by the whisky men TO represent the
women, and.to appear to uphold the laws,
so as to get this infamous decision before
the people before Convention and election
days, hoping against hope in our Supreme
Court sustaining said bred Scott decision.
Politicians here who, two years ago, were
sent up Salt river by the women's vote, re
Jolce over the opinion, expecting to try
their hand again this fall. If the Supreme
Court sustains the Nash opinion, we intend
to take the same view then of that opinion
as now"

STEvE'S BOY,
A Bootblack Who Claims the Temporary
Chairman as His Pa.


New York, June 13th.-Willie White,
who says he is the son of Stephen NJ.
White, of California, Temporary Chairman
of the recent Democratic Convention, is
backing boots in Newark and is in part
nership with two colored boys who have a
little shanty in an alley leading out of Mar
ket street. He is bright boy of sixteen
He says he ran away from home about a
year ago because his father wanted to put
him in college.
Before that his father allowed him to go
on a cruise around the world on the Alert
of the United States navy with his brother,
who, he says, is chief machinist on the
vessel. He talks knowingly of all the Eu-
ropean seaports, as well as of Turkey, At
RIGA, China, Australia and the Sandwich
Islands.
He says he staid at home on the return
from the trip until year ago in May,
when he and two other boys ran away
from San Francisco and went to Sacra-
mento. where the other lads became
homesick and deserted him. He beat
his way to Portland, Oregon, and
from there went to Omaha, where he
got backing outfit. Since then he says
he has made living backing boots, and
has been in Memphis, Chattanooga, New
Orleans, Atlanta, Kentucky, Key West,
Tampa, Jacksonville, Charleston, Cincin-
natl, Cleveland, Chicago, Buffalo, Detroit,
New York, Philadelphia, Brooklyn and
Newark.
Several times he says some of his fathers
friends have recognized him and urged him
to go home, but he is not ready TO do so
yet, because he thinks he has not seen
enough of the world. He says Congress-
man Foran offered him a ticket for San
Francisco and he refused to take it. and
that Senator Payne tried to capture him in
Washington
He vows he likes the life be is leading
and has never had 10 beg for food, but
always has had enough to live decently by
backing boots. He has travelled hundreds
of miles by backing the boots of railroad
men. He has very pronounced sentiments
on the question Of Italian Immigration,
and means to reform it if he ever gets into
place of sufficient influence.

LONDON, June 13th.-Parnell gave
dinner in London this evening in honor of
his colleagues lately in prison in Ireland.
O'Brien was the chief absentee. Parnell
proposed the health of his guests, who, he
said, with the help of their associates, had
broken the back of the coercion Act. Irish
men had not shrunk from coercion in the
past, and would not shrink now. Balfour
had treated the imprisoned Irish Members
of Parliament better than obscure offenders
were treated. He had not dared to inhict
hard labor on the Commons, although
claiming that he had no respect for the
persons. This was cowardly on his part.
Dillon, who responded, said the papal
rescript was fortunate thing, in that it
showed that while Irish Catholics were
faithful churchmen, they would not take
their politics from Rome
Parnell proposed toast to America and
Australia. He said America was solid on
the side of Ireland.

icopyi9d, 1885, by the California As,Ociated Iress
New YORK, June 13th.-Judge West, the
blind orator of Ohio who placed Blaine in
nomination before the last Republican Con-
vention, reiterates his opinion that Blaine
is still the most available candidate Con-
corning the latters withdrawal, West says
that unless the forces which led to the
writing of those letters are withdrawn, he
cannotsay whether theywill preclude Blaine
from accepting the nomination. His theory
is that the Toledo Convention, in which the
Republicans declared year in advance for
Sherman constituted a notice to Blaine
that If he were to come into the National
Convention it could be only as a contestant
That he would never consent to de, and
hence the letters of withdrawal. In other
words the Judge thinks that Sherman
attitude as a candidate compelled Blaine
in the maintenance of his dignity, to form
ally withdraw. But Ex-Governor Foster
has said that Sherman told Blaine he would
not be candidate against the latter.
