A Bold Highwayman Who Robs Trai

Bold Highwayman Who Robs Trains
Single-Handed and Alone.
MINNEAPoLIs, August Sth.-The Wiscon-
sin Central passenger train from Chicago
which passed Chippewa Falls. Wis, at 4
o clock this morning, was held up and
robbed by a single man between Chippewa
Falls and Abbotsford. Half an hour be-
fore the hour named man entered the
sleeping cars of the train and commanded
the conductor aud porter to throw up
their hands. He then proceeded to go
through them, taking all they had. One
OF the passengers was robbed and shot or
two was fired at the porter, but no one was
hurt. The robber pulled the bell rope as
soon as he completed the robbery, and
when the train came to stop he jumped
off and escaped.
The man is described as having the ap.
pearance of woodman. He wore a
slouch hat carried gun, and had big
knife in his belt. He entered the sleeper
and drove the porter TO one end of the car.
The porter did some yelling to awake the
passengers, whereupon the robber fired
This put quietus on the porter. He
robbed the porter, and then from the con-
ductor took $50 and silver watch. He
got from the porter gold watch and a
small amount OF money. From passenger
he got some money and watch. He
tackled another passenger, but the latter
told him that the conductor had all his
money. AS a matter of fact, however, the
man had $500 on his person.

He Has offered Foolish Insult TO the

He Has offered Foolish Insult TO the
German Emperor.
BERLIN, August Sth.-The latest news
from Samoa is causing a stir throughout
Germany. There is reason to fear new snd
serious complications which may entirely
undo the work of the recent Samoan Con-
ference According to these accounts
Matsata, who agreed to maintain the stains
quo unul the treaty drafted by the Confer
ence could be ratified by the United States
Senate, has entirely Tepudiated this arrqa-
ment, and gathered his followers tocethrr
and compelled King Tamasese to hand
over TO hun the prison aud police force of
Apla. DE has dismissed the German Po-
lice Superintendent Herr Won Wolster-
dorit, and released from prison several pa-
tives who had been arrested hv the laiter's
orders. AT last accounts the entire Mu-
nicipal Government Of Apia was in the
hands Of Mataafa, whose men were patrol
ing the city armed.
What eXcites the Germans still more than
this breach of faith on the part of Maiaafa
is the gratuitous insult heaped upon the
German Emperor, at sort of national tete
held in Apia, by Mataafa aud his followers.
On this occasion, the "Dead Baby Dance"
took place, only instead of the traditional
dead baby, Mataafas followers carried in
the procession a bust OF Emperor William
l., which in all likelihood had been washed
ashore from the wreck of the German war
ship Eber.
When the German Consul heard of this
insult he promptly made demand upon
Mataafa for this bust and it is now in his
possession.

ORIGIN OF THE GULF STREAM.
The Declination of the Moon Declared t,
Affect Its Current

The DecGnation of the Moon Declared to
Affect Its Current.
PHILADELPHIA, August Sth.-A local
paper prints an interview with w. s. How
ard, who was three years on the United
States Coast Survey steamer Blake, com
manded by Lieutenant Pilsbury. Howard
says that for two years the gulf stream was
observed and traced, andSt was definitely
ascertained to originate ct a place between
towey Rocks, ledge in the Atlantic, eff
the south extremity of Florida, and Gun
Key, on the Bahama coast. The steamer
was anchored at this point, and the study
OF thesgulf stream was begun there.
The stream was found to vary daily in
velocity, the difference being equal to two
and half knots per hour The current
was affected by the moon, and the greatest
strength of the current was a day or two
after the declinstion of the moon. The
steamer anchored at twenty six stations to
observe the gulf stream, and upward of
fifteen hundred observations were taken.
With other apparatus two meters were
used at once, by which the velocity of the
surface and the sub surface was simulta-
neously noted.
The surface current runs with much
greater velocity than the sub-surface. The
true axis or beginning of the stream is
eleven and half miles east of Fowev
Rocks lighthouse. Here the strongest sur
face current found was FIVE and fourth
knots per hour and The weakest three and
fourth, an average of 6 knots. At the
axis there is depth of 49S fathoms of
water.
The soundings brought to light no ex-
PLANTATION of the mysterious origin of the
stream. The deductions from the obser.
vations are that the trade winds and the
Mississippi river may both be dismissed as
probable creators of the current, and that
the velocity of the current is positively
controlled by the declination of the moon.

TAHLQUAH Ind. Terri, August Sth.-
Chief Mayes has not yet returned from his
home, few miles south of Tahlauah,
where he went to vote. His delay will be
Interpreted by his enemies to be in defer
ence to the presence of the Commission,
aud some anxiety prevails over the Chief
course.
Further negotiations areimpossible until
Mayes sends the Com mmission an answer to
its proposition.
The election. contrary to first rumors, is
not favorable tc the sale of the strip. The
returns indicate that Chief Mayes' party
have majority in the next National
Council. The result was wholly unex-
pected, and conjectures are rife as to what
the Chief will DO. The prevailing opinion
is that he will not call the present Council
together, as it is of different political
complexion from his own, but that he will
wait until the next Council is sworn in, in
November, before he acts on the Commits
sionerS' proposition.

LONDON, August Sth.-General Boulanger,
in explaining how sums of money were
used which he is accused of embezzling
from the Government funds, makes a
strange revelation. He declares that he
obtained for one night, while he was Minis
ter of War, the use of the notes and
accounts of the military at'acbe of the Ger
man Embassy in Paris. These were pur-
ioined from the Embassy and were copied
during the night at the French War Office.
They were returned early in the morning
to the place from which they had been
taken without raising the suspicious of the
German officials General Boulanger as
serts that he paid large sum to accom-
piish this little stroke, and adds that his
Colleagues in the Ministry admitted that
the money was well expended.

tured in Texas.
CHICAGO, August Sth.-A special from
Laredo, Tex, gives description of Tascott,
the suspect, under arrest there, which
tallies more closely with that OF the much
sought fugitive than any previous capture.
The prisoners appearance corresponds ex-
actiy with the description contained in the
circular issued by the relatives of Smell,
the millionaire, for whose murder Tascoti
Is wanted.
The scars on Tascott's elbows and legs
have counterparts on the Laredo man. and
though there is no gold in the prisoner s
front teeth, a cavity which had once been
filled is there. The arrest grew out OF the
