j. v. Gum Is Relieved Of $500 by
Hlghwaymen.
On Thursday evening, about 6
o'clock, occurred the boldest and most
successful hold up and robbery of the
many which have been perpetrated in
this city. The victim was J. V. Gum,
an old gentleman tfty-eight years of
age, who for the past twelve months
has been employed by DR.. Pentield to
take care of his horses. A reporter
yesterday interviewed Mr.. Gum, who
gives the following account Of his .un-
pleasant adventures: On Thursday
evening, having completed his work
at DIR. Penteld's, he started for his
home, which is located on Pine street,
n short distance south of the Riverside
avenue railway crossing. He
Was not following any
road but taking short cut to his
house. He had been over the path so
often that he had not the slightest
suspicion OF danger, 80 was carrying
no weapon, not even ~ stick. Just
where the path crosses the railroad he
saw through the binding snow which
was driving in his face, the forms uf
three men on the track n few feet
from him. Without word one Of the
three seized him roughly by the coat
while the other two whipped out re-
volvers and held them in his face.
while one of them explained, "Ths is
not the man we're after" Mr..
Gums first impulse was to knock down
the man holding him and to endeavor
to escape, but II glance at the nuzzles
of the revolvers thrust close to
his face convinced him that such a
course would be mere folly, so he
offered no resistance while his coat
was stripped Of and searched. The
darkness and snow prevented him
from gaining n very clear idc.. of the
appearance of his assailants but he
says that two of them were tall and
one short, and that the lower part Of
their faces we're muffled. After secur-
ing the wallet, which was in the ir-
side pocket, the miscreants threw the
coat on the ground and started off,
after stopping to make hasty exam.
ination of their booty, when one of
We SOJ DrctgY
good thing after ALL" Confused and
nervous Mr.. Gum went to his home
and it was not till some time later that
the police were informed of the affair.
The remark of the robber chat
they had got pretty good th AZ after
all" was justified, as the wallet
the sum OF $500,
nearly the whole amount of
of their victims hard earned savings.
1t seems that Mr.. Gum, desiring to
give his wife and daughter some
money, had on Thursday morning
taken the $500 from the safe of l. s.
Kaufman, where he had been keeping
ii, and so it appears that the robbers
stumbled upon the haul by pure acci-
lent. Their remarks would indicate
that they were lying in wait for some
other >ictem, but the police thinks
that were made simply for blind.
There is no clew as to the where.

probabilities are that they will escape

continental Fares.

continental Fares.
CHICAGO, Dec. 2S.---On January LIST
AN important change is to be made in
the transcontinental passenger rates,
.be required ten days notice Of an ad
vance having been duly given. The
increase was determined upon at the
Chicago meeting, some weeks ago, but
there was ior a time some uncertainty
whether il would be carried out, ow-
ing to tleapp Sc at hesitation of the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe in the
matter. That corporation, fell into line,
with the rsult OF ah amicable agree
ment among all OF the interested trans
continental roads. The California
business has developed into enormous
figures, and the roads concluded that
the traffic could justly bear an ad-
vance, as il was being done at cheap
rates when compared with the fares pre-
vaillng in other sections. The low fig
uses were due to inilue ices exerled by
the old transco influential war, when
rates were pulled down to almost
nothing, and only partially recovered
when the inter state commerce law
caused a suspension of hostilities.
There are to be only two rates: I'm
limited, first-class, which has been
raised in most instances, and new sec
Ond-c!ass tickets, which correspond
with the old emigrant, or third.class
rates. Although increases will be
found III this class in the new sched-
ule, there will be- only two rates in ef-
feet from points on the Missouri river
4. ..ntrtS ln D.,.iEn xvh,,t
will be $50 unlimited irst-class, and
S35 secondclass. These will be the
figures on all transcontinental lines,
except via st. Paul to Oregon and
Washington territory points. The
rates between Chicago and san Fran.
cisco will be, first-class, $72.50; ST.
Louis. :p67 80 ; New York, SOL Boston,
1893. These tickets will be unlimited,
whereas ut the old rates cOntinu-
ous passage was r.cessaay.
The most impo. ;ant change, how
ever, Is in round-' Zip excursion rates,
species of travel which constitutes
nine-tenths Of the business now being
done by the overland lines since the
boom began. These have been fixed
at TSO between Chicago and the Pa
cific coast, and $50 from the Missouri
river. These have been advanced
from Chicago to 800 and from the
the Missouri to $50. There is this diff.
fele nee, however, under the old rule
their use was confined to certain dates
on which special trains were run, but
by the new deal, excursion tickets are
good for any Of the regular trains. As
some of the Chicago roads had con-
tracts with the Raymond and Whit
comb excursion parties under the old
rates and running into February, tie
Burlington and Missouri Pacific, which
were nos SO we'll provided, were graft
ed the privilege of running one excur-
sion train at old rates during january
and February. These over, then all
lines will be on an equality. The
cream Of the excursion business for
the year has already been done,
the number of tickets sold aggregating
over 10000, to which will probably be
added N the ensuing two months
somewhere in the neighborhood of l5,-
OOO. The revenues derived during
he season from this business by trans
lines will closely approach

ID. II. Gilman, one of the projectors
OF the above road, has just returned
home from trip to New York on
business for tho company. He states

which are now being laid, and another

Besides, a contract has been let for the
construction of thirty miles OF the road
eastward from Raging river, but work
will not be commenced until February
