And to the same effect are numerous authori-

OF the Code relating to the writ OF hooe1S

its uses, q few weeks ago asked permits

took upon himself all responsibility for
consequences consent was at last grant

some DAYS With the result, as'he himself
declares, of relieving himself from his
ailment TO O remarkable degree. He
claims to DO entirely cured. ] may say

Bolton, TEX, Sept. 21.-The excitement con-
corning the robbery of the safe of the Pacific ex-
press at the Missouri, Kansas and Texas depot
continues undated. While no clew has been
obtained, which has reached the public ear,
there are many surmises as to suspected parties
and their pals. The superintendent OF the eL-
press company arrlv ed here this morning, and IS
IN ConsuIJatlOn with express ara local railway
oHclals, but all are reticent. and VIII coInmuni-
cate nothing OF even their surmises il reference
TO the matter. There seems to be nobody to blame,
as the course pursued IN reference to these pack
ages was the same, SO far as the express mes
senger and the agent were concerned, as
mas been pursued n other cases,
Tor long time past. The messenger

the branch to Bolton placed the same in the safe

The loss VIII IN no wise affect the business firms
to whom the money was being sent,
as they have ample funds for
the transaction OF all business affairs. The
public do not seem to attach any blame to
either the messenger or the agent, as there was
no variation from the customary practice IN
such cases, ana they had the implied ard tacit
acqulesence OF the express company IL the
former practice in this respect. ! PinEertOn
detective might possibly soon unrayel the thing
and spot the thief, as some OF the theories ad-
VauCed are probably correct. Though no names
are mentioned in connection with the robbery,
illusions are limited at and deal Of think
ing IS kept up, which may ultimately result
IN something tangible OF which officials may
take hold.
