THE WALKERS.

Hegelman still Leads With Guerrero
 Second-SherIosk in Fourth Place.
 At 12 o'clock last night the weary ''peds' in the walking match at the Polo rink had tramped just half their time.
 Curley held third place during the day, but dropped out at g o'clock in the evening. Smith, ''the cowboy" took his place. Plucky little George Connors still holds fifth place, while Sherlock, the New Haven boy, has good hold on fourth place. He amused the spectators as usual last evening with his songs.
 The interest is all eentered on Guerrero and Hegelman. Hegelman has @ good lead on the Mexican, but whether he can hold it is question. There will in all probability be nice race for third, fourth and ffth places. Fox dropped ont at o'clock.
 The score at 10 o'clock was: Hegelman POS miles 1 laps, Guerrero 195 miles, Smith 17d miles laps, Curley 175 miles 13 laps, Sher- look 173 miles 8 laps, Connors ITO miles laps, Horan 1es miles lap, Golden 153 miles II laps. Dean 149 miles, Bison IA miles 6 laps.
 When the days racing ended at 12 o'clock the score stood: Hegelman 213 miles laps, Guerrero 204 miles IA laps, Smith 1s4 miles Il laps, Sherlock 182 miles 9 laps, Corners 181 miles laps, Horan 179 miles IA laps, Curlev 174 miles 13 laps, Golden 160 miles 1 lap, Dean 156 miles laps, Bison 151 miles Il laps, Noremac 70 miles laps.

A Big Mining Scheme of Buffalo spec-
 ulatOrs COllapsed.


 ulators Collapsed.
 BUFFALO, Sept. 25.-One of the largest financial enterprises in which Buffalo speou- lators ever engaged has practically collapsed, and the net loss is $2,0oO,OOO. The enter prise was the Big Bend Tunnel and Mining company, with the principal office in this city and 8 branch at Big Bend, Butte county, Cal. The field of operations is at the latter place. The capital stock of the company is $2e,000,000, of which $2,000,000 has been paid in and sunk almost beyond redemption. The president of the company is the Hon. Ray v. Pierce, ex.congressman and proprie- tor of the Worlds dispensary of this city. Dr. Pierce is the head of the enterprise, and owns 60 to 70 per cent. of the stock.
 The north fork of the river called Big Bend was considered particularly rich. Five years ago Dr. Pierce's attention was called to these deposits, and he organized the Big Bend Tunnel and Mining company, every shareholder in which confidently expected to become amillionaire.
 The mine turned out to be failure. The bed of the river was covered with immense powders, and it was losing task to secure the gold. One gang of men would strike 8 rich find, but another gang would work away at the powders and eat up the profits of the find. It is hardly probable that anything further will be done in the way of mining, and the only revenue that will be got out of the property will come from the sale of the tract of land, some of which is valuable, in- cluding hundreds of acres of good timber.

TRAIN ROBBERS GET s10, 900.

The Santa Fe Express Held UP Ten
 Miles From Fort Worth.
 FORT WORTH, Texas, Sept. 25.-A few minutes before 10 o'clock last night as the north bound Santa Fe train was pulling out of Crowley, ten miles south of this oity, three men boarded the train and two others jumped on the locomotive. The two on the engine placed pistols to the heads of Engi- neer Monahan and Fireman Orager and told them to pull out and stop when told. When two miles from Crowley the engineer was or dsred to stop.
 Then the robbers cut the engine, baggage and express cars from the rest of the train and made Monahsn pull half mile further up the road. A short, aeshy young man and dark mustaohsd burly looking fellow then got into the express car and ordered the messenger to show them the money. He pointed to three bags of Mexican silver. One of the men ripped open a sack and shovelled the silver out of the door, while the other one threw out the other sacks.
 They took two packages said to contain $5, ,00O each, but overlooked three or four money packages for Fort Worth. The short man finally ordered those with him to let the two full sacks alone. The engineer was then made to couple up and move. The robbers started in a westerly direction. The train reached here at midnight and posse of twenty men started in pursuit at once.

WRECK OF THE LILY.

Particulars Of Her Unfortunate Dis-
 aster-Six or the Crew Meet . Terrf-
 ble Death-The Ship a Total Wreck.
 HALIFAX, Sept. 25.-Her majesty's steam CT, Emerald, arrived here to-day with the survivors of the wrecked war ship Lily. First Lieutenant Hewitt gives the following story of the disaster:
 The Lily went ashore September 16 at five o'clock in the afternoon at place called Point Armour, Forteau bay, on the coast of Labrador. She was bound into Forteau bay for her mails. At the time very thick fog prevailed, and suddenly, without the least warning, the ship struck the rocks with considerable force. The breakers could then be heard. The officers did not know exactly what they had struck. The ship commenced to pound heavily and make water rapidly and three of the boats were lowered and started for the shore, but owing to the heavy surf they capsized when close in, throwing,ths occupants all into the water. All managed to swim ashore but two. They were drowned. One of the sailors then swan ashore with line end by this means hawser was got to land.
 Four of the crew attempted to go ashore over rope which was passed over a sharp ledge of rocks, but the poor fellows were dashed to death on the rocks beneath. Find ing it impossible to land safely by this means 6 cradle was arranged on the hawser. The first man to be sent in it was West Indian named Seate who acted as musician on board. He met the same fate as the four others, his dead body being found in the cradle next day. The Emerald happened to be lying in Forteau Bay, which is about five miles from Point Armour, and in answer to distress signals sent number of her men to assist at the wreck. With their help the remainder of those on board managed to reach the shore fin safety about o'clock the next morning. Shortly after the upsetting of the boats, when it was seen how unsafe it was to land, the cutter with the ships papers, money, etc, was sent out to sea in charge of an officer and re- mained there all night, landing safely in Forteau Bay the next day. When the fog lifted on Tuesday it was found that the Lily had struck reef about hundred yards from shore. On the Sunday before there had been heavy blow and this caused very heavy awell to roll in, which soon pounded the bottom out of the ship.
 When the Emerald left the scene last Sat- urday the Lily was lying on her starboard side with her netting under water. Her bot tom is completely battered out and the water is up to the upper decks. Her three heavy guns were left on board, it being impossible to land them. Of the lost six were blue. jackets, including one colored man, and one was a marine. The vessels crew numbered
