The silver market has been so stimu-
lated by the new law that the quota
lions are going steadily upward. The
purchases made yesterday by the treas
ury department We're at the rate OF
$1.1S1a to $1.1934 per ounce. At this
rate of progression it will not be long
before silver has reached $1,29 per
ounce, and that will bring it to parity
with gold.

FIRED ON TIE CROWD.

Bad Work of Pinltcrton Men In tho New
York Central Yards Mt Albany Fear
Innocent PersonS Shot without NTovo-
cation.
ALBANY, N. Y, Aug. 15.-Tho most
disastrous day in the history of the New
York Central railroad strike closed last
night Six Pinkorton mon are under
the caro- of surgeons and five citizons
are so badly wounded that there are
fears for thoir recovery. Three Pinker-
ton men were arrested and one was so
severely handled by tho mob that the
police surgeon had to dress his wounds.
The trouble was at the Van Woert street
crossing, few blocks west OF the pas
senger depot and where the freight
trains run onto the bridge. Early Sun
day morning crowds began to gather and
by noon there was huge crowd. Every
thing was quiet until at 1:10 o'clock
freight train came down from West AL
bany. On the top of each car we're two
Pinkerton men armed with repeating
rifles and as the cars passed by they
fourished them. Suddenly and without
provocation, one of the men fred and
Richard Dwyer, a boy of twelve years,
fell, shot in the thigh. =
The excitement was intense and
rush was made for the train, and so sac
cessful was it that James Hatton, who
fred the shot, was caught The police
charged the mob and rescued the man
just as they had him up against tree
ready to hang him. He was badly bat
tered up. A few minutes after, John
Houck, lumber handler aged twenty
two years, was arrested for stoning
train. At three o'clock freight train
bound west came over the bridge,
guarded by Pinkerton men. Whom ID
reached the city several OF the Pinker-
ton men, without provocation, opened
fire. Mrs Thomas Il. Hogan was shot
through the leg and a small BOY was
shot in the thigh. The crowd by this
time was wrought up to fearful pitch
of excitement and only by the efficiency
of the local police, aided by committees
from the strikers, were they kept back.
At four o'clock when tho excitement
had begun to cool down, another freight
train came through and the Pinkerton
men again fired into the crowd, boy
named Frank Parks receiving a bullet
in his arm. Officer Dunn jumped on the
train and tried to find the men, but was
unsuccessful. He was carried back to
East Albany on another train and there
was assaulted by the Pinkerton men, al
though he was in full uniform. All the
police of the city are massed at this
point and more trouble is expected.
Robert Pinkerton asked for the re-
lease of Thomas Burke, who was ar
rested under arms, but Chief Willard re-
fused, saying that the men were incit-
ing the people to violence. Mr.. Pinker-
ton said that it was simply matter OF
protecting the new brakemen and was
necessary.
Five Pinkerton men arrested Satur-
day night we're arraigned in police court
yesterday morning and four were admit
ted to bail for further examination. One
man was released.
The only freight train moved yester-
day consisted of refrigerator and empty
cars. The blockade at West Albany is
almost as bad as on the first day of the
strike.

DARING ROBBERY.
A Missouri Pacific Train Held Up and t
Express Messenger Robbed of 500, 900

Missouri Pacific Train Held Up and tho
Express Messenger Robbed of 100000.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. 1S.-The
safe of the Pacific Express Company was
robbed of 500, ,OOO by train robbers on
the Missouri Pacific railway Sunday
morning. The train, which was the
Kansas City limited express No. 3, left
Upton, Mo-, at about three n. m. Two
mysterious figures were seen by the
engineer lurking around the forward
end of the train but no particular atten-
tion was paid to them. just after leav-
ing Upton, the fireman turned toward
the tender to fire up the engine and
looked squarely into the muzzles of two
revolvers in the hands of two masked
men who were lying on their faces on
the top of the coal. One of the bandits
covered the fireman with his revolver
while the other took care of the engi-
neer They were told to hold up their
hands and the engineer ordered to run
the train to Otterville water tank, in
Robbers Cut" just east of Otterville.
When Robbers CUT was reached
the engineer was commanded to go to
the express car and tell the messenger
to open the door. He did so, under the
threat of death il he should fail. When
he reached the express car be found the
two robbers had five confederates sta
toned at convenient places about the
car, all heavil~ armed and their faces
concealed behind masks. He walked to
the door of the express car and called to
the express messenger, Sam Avery, to
open the door. Avery, suspecting no
danger, pushed back the door. As he
did so the leader of the robbers and ono
confederate pushed their revolvers in
and ordered tho messenger to hold up
his hands. The order was promptly
obeyed and three of the robbers jumped
into the car.
Avery was commanded TO open tho
safe and at the point of resolver did
SO. One of the robbers unfolded a sack
and into it were placed the entire con-
tents of the safe. The robbers then
made their escape without attempting
to molest the passengers. The engineer
pulled the train into Otterville, half
mile distant, where part of the crew
were loft to arouse tho sheriff and or
ganize posse to pursue the robbers.
The news of the robbery was also tele-
graphed to headquarters at St. Louis
and all the available detective force of
the road was sent to "Robbers Cut"
The sheriff's posse and detectives are
now securing the country for the rob-
bers, who are unknown.
