A Curious Custom.

Ever since miners have BEEN en-
ployed on the Lake Superior range i
has been their custom to quit work i'm
mediately after one of their number is
killed in mine and all the men en-
ployed in that mine remain idle until
after the funeral. This has become
an established custom and it is al
ways rigidlv observed. Because of
the observance of this unwritten
law, all the way from 500 to 600
men suspend their work for couple of
days every ew months in the larger
mines. When a fatal accident occurs
right in the middle of busy shipping
season it entails great loss to the mine
management. An effort is now being
made to let the miners have one-hali
day to attend the funeral Of any of
their number who may die and work
the remainder of the time that they
have heretofore been idle. In recon-
pense of this the men will be allowed
double pay, the extra amount above
their wages going to the widow or other
relatives of the deceased. The plan has
been tried and works satisfactorily
in other branches OF industrial labor,
but whether the miners can be induced
to depart from their old established Gus
tom remains to be seen. -

In the Hope of Pardon He Will Expose
All the Plans of the Anarc hists.
Louis w. FL. Neebe has returned to
Chicago from Joliet, where he went to
call on his brother, Oscar, the Anarch-
list. Prior to going, Mr.. Neebe had a
talk with Judge Gary, who presided
at the Anarchist trial. on the
subject of petition for the prison
er's pardon, and was told that
when Oscar had made him a
full statement regarding the formations,
workings and plans of the Anarchistic
groups, including the Lehr und Weir
verein; how he became marshal of an
armed body marching on the board of
trade; how he lost or injured his
fingers in experiments with dynamite;
what steps he and others took in the
consummation Of their proposed social
revolution-when he exposed all the
plans and schemes of the defense
during the progress of the trial
and then expressed regret and contri-
tlon,. then he (the judge) would be in a
position to say what he would do on the
question Of signing a petition for par
don. A statement of the requirements
was laid before Oscar and he agreed to
fulfill them. The prison authorities
have furnished him pen, ink and paper
for this purpose, and the statement is
probably being written now.

WORK OF TRAIN ROBBERS.
Two Passengers Shot and the Express SAT-
Rif1ed.


DELANo, CAL, Feb 23.-As train No. II
left P1xley last evening five masked
men boarded it. Two went on the en-
CINE and covered the engineer and fire.
men with revolvers. When about two
miles from the station the train was
brought to stop and the other three
men entered the express car and or
dered the messenger to open the box,
covering him with revolvers. Dynamite
bombs were exploded under the car.
During the excitement several passen-
gers ran toward the front, and two OF
them were shot. E. S. Bentley, OF Mo-
desto, was probably fatally wounded,
and Charles Gabert, of Poso, was killed
instantly. The train ran back to Pixley
where the news was left. The passen-
ger coaches were not molested.
Another account states that but two
men were concerned in the robbery and
that while one remained on the en-
CINE, the other made his way to the ex-
press car, and by exploding bombs
under the car so frightened the messen-
gers that they speedily opened the
doors. Bentley, who was probably
fatally wounded, is deputy constable
here.
The amount secured by the robbers
is unknown. A posse will pursue them
from here.

Not Signed With AIacrity.
A Chicago dispatch of the Goth says
Appearances tonight are all but de-
cisive that the proposed Interstate
Commerce Railroad Association will
not be organized. When the presid dents
of the Western railroads reconvened at
the Grand Pacific Hotel to-day, the
committees appointed to obtain the sig
natures of the five dissenting companies
to the proposed agreement reported
that their efforts had been unsuccessful.
The only responses received by the
committee were from the Illinois Cen
trial, positively refusing to join the as
ISOLATION, and the Wisconsin Central
reaffirmipg its position that it would
join only on condition that the Chicago.
Burlington & Northern signed the agree
ment. Nothing has been heard from
the Burlington & Northern, and there is
now little hope that it can be whipped
into line. Rather than ANONYMOUSLY
abandon the entire scheme for the
much-heralded "gentlemen's agree
ment, " ii was proposed in effect to at least
make show of perfecting the agree
ment and organization of the associa-
ton with such companies as had al
ready signed. This was agreed to, and
a committee was appointed composed
of Messrs. Hughitt, McMullin, Stone,
Truesdale, Newman and Howe, ''to
make such changes Of detail in the plan

expedient in view OF the failure to OBJ
tain the assent of certain companies
thereto" This committee will report

STANLEY'S AMBITION.

1t Develops That He Intends to Capture
khartoum and Subdue the Soudan.
Lieut.. Baert, who was at Stanley Falls
when Henry M. SANKEY'S message to
Tippoo lib was delivered, has arrived
at Brussels. He states that the mes
senger was closely questioned and that
he confirmed the details of the letter.
Lieut.. Baert believes that Stanley only
reached Waldelai by strenuous efforts
and that Emin Pasha relieved
Stanley instead Of being relieved,
and was re-victualled by him.
Stanley was enabled to return
to Murenia in eighty-two days, where
as the journey from Yambunga to Wa
delai occupied ten months. Baert adds
that fresh letters from Stanley for En-
gland, written when Stanley departed
from Murenia to rejoin Emin, arrived
at Stanley Falls just as he left and may
be expected shortly. He says that
Stanley will not return either via the
Congo or via Zenzibar, but that he in
tends to capture Khartoum and wrest
the Soudan from the Mahdi. Baert ex-
presses confidence in Tippo This fdeli-
ty and says that Typos refusal to &C.
company Stanley was due to his fears of
risking the consequences of long abb
sence from Stanley Falls.
