ALONE HIGHWAYMAN
Holds up a Stage in Michigan
And Kills a Man
no REMOVE GEN'L. GRANTS BODY
A Proposition to Place 1t at Arlington
Tramps Sold at AuctiOn-An
Irish Outrage

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. GA Tribune special
most daring deeds in the mountain passes
of California and Colorado were outdone
to-day by lone highwayman who held up
and robbed stage that runs between
Gogbic on the Milwaukee, Lake Shore &
Western railway just over the line in
Michigan and near the Gogbic lake sum-
mer resort, where people from the large
cities spend the dog days. The stage was
running along at lively gait through
dense forest when about two
miles from the station man
jumped out in front of it and pointing
two big revolvers at the driver commanded
him in good old western style to throw up
his hands, at the same time extending
the order to four passengers inside the
coach, with the further provision that they
shell out all their valuables and currency.
One passenger went down in his pocket,
but instead of bringing up his pocketbook,
he clinched pistol in his hand and began
firing. The desperate returned the fire,
and although the driver whipped his horses
into gallOp his aim was true, B. Macker
chere, a bookkeeper in the First National
bank, Minneapolis, receiving the first bullet
in his cheek, while the second crashed
through his leg. A G. Flischheimer
of Bellville, Ill, was MORALLY wounded. He
raised up in his seat Just in time to receive
bullet in his hip, and reached forward
and pitched sideways from the coach into
the sideroad. The horses continued to run
and the wounded man was left to take his
chances with the desperate. The william
threatened to kill him, but finally desisted
on securing S37 and his watch. The
wounded man lay in the road bleeding for
three hours before any one courageous
enough was found to go to his succor. He
will not live over night. Macker-
cherer was taken to Eagle River
fer treatment and thence to Min
neapolis. There are grave doubts
as to his recovery. There were
two other passengers on the coach,
but neither of them was molested. They
were Frank Padden, of 156 Washington
street, Chicago, and Robert Rinlout, of the
Bank of Montreal, Chicago. The party was
out on a fishing trip and was composed of
wealthy men. The description of the rob-
Der TALES to letter with that of the dar-
ing freebooter who went through the Chi
cago & Northwestern train near Ellis
Junction some time ago. Sheriff Boley, of
Bessemer, at once organized a posse of a
dozen men and has gone in pursuit The
chances for a capture are very slim.

To Remove Grants Remains.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-The Post to-mor-
row will print an article urging that the
remains of General Grant should be re-
moved to the national capital. In the
course of the article it says;
1.-THE people were reconciled to the burial
OF General Grant at Riverside simply be-
cause of the distinct assurance and pledge
of New York that a monument to his re
membrance, and OF surprising grandeur,
should be erectedthere. The assurance and
pledge have come to be naught but by
word of reproach, and the solemnity of
the promised monument ism the imagination
of a remote and shadowy future Hence
regret has become indignation, and what
was at first tact assent on certain condi-
tions that remain wholly untitled is con-
verted to a vigorous and growing demand
for the removal of the remains from the
place in which they repOse but to be dis
honored ana where they should never have
found sepulture The plea that the fame
of General Grant is for all time is no
excuse that it should take all time to
build his monument. The country should
wait no longer upon her sordid and slow
paced motions; it should proceed at once
to that other and greater than any other
monumental duty-that of reinterring the
body of the illustrous soldier upon the
shore of the Potomac"
The Post urges that the Grand Army at
the present encampment should take up
the matter and says that Congress could
not say no to such q reasonable request
based upon the high and patriotic motive
that the remains of the old commander
should be taken from their neglected grave
at Riverside to the companionship Of
| Arlington.

Hammond and Sayre and The Elixir of Life
Controversy.

New YORK, Aug. 26.-Speaking Of the
quarrel between Doctors Sayre and Ham
mond, the Herald yesterday refers to the
Examiners interview as the casus belli
and quotes DIR. Hammond as saying: HE,
DR. Sayre, says he never made any such
remark rs that I was a fraud and was
making 81 600 week. He did make it,
and you will find it published in the San
Francisco Examiner of August 5 as fol-
lows: AS for Hammond, he knows better,
but as there is a cool 81 900 a week In 1t Tor
him, he will never tell. Hammond is
fraud; he knows that by adopting this SEN
sational scheme to cheat nature, all the old
men in the country will come to him to be
made young, and ne will charge them &C
cordingly. He has taken a large contract,
but what does he care
"He put this in paper where he prob
ably thought I would never see it; ne
never would have dared to utter such
language if he had been in New York
The Examiner correspondent must cor
rect DIR. Hammond in two points: Say
ing that there is 81 900 a week in it for
him is very different from he is making or
has made 81, 900 IA week. DIR. Sayre was
entirely guiltless of any attempt to insert
any statement in any interview. DR..
Sayre was interviewed in the usual coarse
of the Examiners enterprise DR.. HAM
mond seems to be ignorant of its scope

A Glass Trust.

NEW York, Aug. 26.-The manufacturers
of window glass, table glass and crockery
have formed trust To-day Mr.. F'itzpat-
rick, of the firm of ]. Fitzpatrick & Co..
manufacturers Of window glass, said: "a.
trust has been formed called the United
Glass company. They have got up ten of
the principal plants in New York state and
Ohio but 1 don't think the western manu-
facturers will join the association"
The object in forming the trust is to save
expenses and make profits and cheaper the
price of goods. 1t is considered that this
new trust will be the salvation of many
small plants that otherwise would have
been obliged to close up. The new
trust is really the beginning of
q long fight between the old manufacturers,
who are known as ''potmen,n and the new
men called "tankmen," by reason Of their
introducing new method of making glass
in tanks instead of pots. This new method
has only one plant erected in this country,
that at Jeanette, Pa. The men behind the
new enterprise issue circulars that they
will furnish glass at reduction of from 10
to II per cent. below the price Of the ''pot
men, This action would have resulted in
the going under of many small plants if
they had stood alone, so the trust was
formed and inaugurated the beginning of a
long fight.
A trust is also contemplated by table
glass men," A meeting of the Table Ware
Glass Manufacturers association" was re-
Gently held at which committee was ap-
pointed to adopt some plan of organization.
Later it was determined to form a trust for
the purpose of STRENGTHENING prices and
! limiting production. Ohio towns with
their oil and gas wells offered three build
ing sites, etc, to try to get the members of
the trust to combine factories in that state,
but without success. 1t has been decided
to take in all the manufacturers of table
glass if possible

THE TOWER OF LONDON.
The Proposition to Build One Two Thousand
Feet High Taking Shape.

Feet High Taking Shape.
Especial to THE HERAI.D-Examiner Dispatch. !
New York, Aug. 26.-The projected
London tower is assuming definite shape,
and Mr.. Perks, solicitor to the company,
says it is an accomplished fact. ''Sir Ed
ward Watkins he said, must have the
sole credit of the inception of the tower.
The idea of constructing tower 1000 feet
high that should eclipse every other tower
first occurred to him. Sir Edwards right
hand man. Mr.. H. d. Rochin, is associated
with him in this tower scheme. Mr.. Rochin
is one of the greatest iron and coal pro
prietors in England. Then there is Mr..
William Newburn, who is the largest
holder of Southeastern railway stock. The
fourth name is that of Mr. Thomas Andrew
Walker, the greatestcontrac tor in the worid,
who is at the present moment carrying
out some of the greatest enterprises OF the
age. The Manchester ship canal is one and
the Buenos Ayres harbor works for the Ar
gentine governments another. Mr. Walker
was the man whom the Great Western
railway selected to construct the Severn
tunnel, and he made the underground rail
ways through London. The fifth is Mr.. +.
H. Carbutt. He was a member of Parlia-
ment for Newport. He is well known
mechanical engineer and has been president
of the Mechanical Engineers association.
Next is Mr. Francis Pave, well known in
financial circles in the city, and especially
in connection with American railway
stocks, who said
at would be almost possible to calculate
approximately how many persons would
ascend the tower per day. There are
100000 persons in London. We have
fixed population five times the size of
Paris to work on. We have 135,000,0OO
persons travelling annually on the under
ground railways, which unite at Kensing-
ton. This would give our tower an i'm
measurably superior chance over the Eifel
tower.'i'
