was invited to dine with friend the

discovered that among the other guests

attacked him.

the Worst OF it-Another
Time They Don't.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.l
CITY OF MEXICO, September 2S.-Three
bandits yesterday attacked diligence in
the State of Vera Cruz. Among its passen-
gers were number of Americans. The
driver, at the command Of the highwaymen,
who were backed by three revolvers,
brought his horses to a standstill.
He was made to dismount, and in
the usual style was made to stand
at one side of the roadway, with his hands
pointing heavenward. The passengers were
then requested to step out OF the coach and
fall in line with the driver. One of the
Americans was the first to obey the man
date. He, however, on dismounting did
not leave his Winchester behind, and had
hardly touched Mother Earth when he com
menced to pump cold lead into the high
waymen with a skill that put them to
fight
The day following this episode, and in the
same vicinity, the identical gang tackled
the stage again. They succeeded in reliey-
ing the passengers, who were all Mexicaus
of everything of value on their persons and
left them doing duty in line with their
hands above their heads. Flushed with the
success that had attended their exploit, the
highwaymen had not gone far before they
fell in with two mule drivers, and at the
point of the revolver proceeded to despoil
them Of everything that they had packed
upon their animals. One of the mule
drivers, NOT relishing the treatment, re-
monstrated. He was tied, thrown to the
ground and his nose buried in the sand.
His companion kept discreet silence dur
ing the disposition of his goods, and was not
molested,

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH,
NEW YORK, September 28.-Miss Anna
Lindle is bringing a suit against Captain
Henry Hoffman for breach of promise and
damages to the amount of 100000. Miss
Lindle is young German lady,
possessed of good soprano voice,
and it was while turning her vocal
accomplishments to advantage, the early
part of the past summer, under the stage
name of Elma Arendt. that she first met
Hoffman. Captain Henry Hoffman is a
representative of the Berwind- White
Coal Mining Company, is said to
be the father of grown and married
children, and his wife resides in Brooklyn.
The allegations which Miss Lindle brings
against Captain Hoffman, aside from the
mere charge of breach of promise are of
the most serious character. Miss Lindle
accepted an engagement for the summer in
Pleu's Garden, Hoboken, resort for the
better class of Germans. Captain Hoffman
requested an introduction. Wine was or,
dered by the Captain lavishly. The Captain,
asked her to 60 to dinner with him the next
afternoon.
Miss Arendt refused the dinner, but Cap
tain Hoffman appeared now to have be-
come more infatuated. She charges that
while under the influence of wine she was
driven to house in the woods and kept a
prisoner for a week. Her rescue was effected
by her mother, who learned that Hoffman
was a married man.

that Miss Anna Lorenza Shaw, 20 years old,
daughter of Mrs. Louise Shaw hair dealer,
had been killed by i'll treatment of her step
father, DR.. Francis F. Mareschal. Mrs.
Shaw and her husband, DIR. Mareschal, live
at 56 West Fifty-sixth street, where Anna
died. Coroner Levy went to the house this
evening and found no grounds for suspicion.
When Mrs. Shaw learned who the COM
plainant was she said that Irion was a
wretch. She married Dr. Mareschal IL
dence in him. He was even kinder than
herself to her baby Mana" as she
termed Anna. She had made her will
recently, Mrs. Shaw continued, and had
left her house to DR.. Mareschal. Irion was
envious because she had not given it to him,
although she had left good sum of money
to Mrs. Irion. ''That mans wife is not my
daughter, anyway" she said; "she is my
adopted daughter. She does not know it
herself. She was brought up from baby
as my own child"
At this juncture Mrs. Irion herself, wear
ing hat and sacque, came in from the
street and went Immediately to Mrs. Shaw's
room. She is rather good-looking young
woman, and her face expresses intelligence
and kindness of heart. She was greatly
excited and asked what was the matter.
Half rising in her bed, Mrs. Shaw
pointed to her and said: "It is
through yonr husband that NV s,,oor bahy
is going to be cut up by the coroner's
Doctors. You can leave my house this
instant. You are no child of mine. You
were adopted" Mrs. Irion grew pale and
said, "Oh, mamma"
Neither you nor your husband shall ever
have a penny OF my money" continued
Mrs. Shaw, pointing her toward the door.

ENGLISH SPORTING GOSSIP.
Pointers About the Czarewifch and the
Young British Scullers.

rBY CABLE TO THE DIsPATcH.1
LONDON. September &.-LCopyright 1.-The
race for the Czarewitch is inducing a great
amount of speculation. The horse Davenport,
on his forward running in a recent race against
frst-class horses is being backed for large sums
at II to against him. Vasistas consistently
good performer, is second favorite at 10 to 2
against him. Not much is being done as yet
with the race for the Cambridgeshire, which is
looked upon as of Aery open character.
There is scarcely point OF difference in price
between the first five favorites.
The impetus given to sculling by the Searle
and O'Connor race and to other matches since
arranged, has induced Mr.. Innes, the we'll
known writer on aquatics under the nom de
plume of Pegasus. to offer a series of prizes
for young scullers, with view of ascertaining
whether there is anything sufficiently promising
in England's rising talent to warrant supporting
tor champion sculling honors. So far the pros
poets are not encouraging English sculling
has fallen to such low ebb that it would take
a great deal more than Mr.. Innes can do to
resuscitate 1t.

MCKEEsPoRT. September 2S.-A McKees-
porter who arrived from England this week
and landed here to-day talks in an interesting
way of the Searle-O' Connor race. He saw the
race and lost money on O'Connor, and is Of the
opinion that the Canuck is better oarsman
than Searle. and that he can beat the latter
when in trim.
~ lost my money on O'Connor and wduld
place it on him again, he said. "O'Connor did
not lose the lace because he cannot defeat
Searle; it was because he was out Of trim.
Three days before the race he rowed q three
mile trial over the course and led an eight
cared crew the entire distance of the course,
this in connection with over training, lost the
race for him. He is better oarsman, more
skillful rover, has better endurance, and is a
finer built man than Searle, and would place
my money on him tomorrow if he were to row."
Continuing he stated that Immediately after
the race O'Connor said, Had Teemer been
in this race he could have easily finished ten
boat lenths ahead of me. meaning that OCon-
nor could not row up to his standard and could
not push Searle under the circumstances. He
Is of the opinion that Searle does not compare
with O'Connor. and that there are oarsmen in
this country who can defeat the former.
