Known on Montgomery Street.
Burglars are evidently at work in the
lower portion Of this city. Two attempts
were made during the last week to effect
an entrance TO stores on Montgomery
street, on the block between Washington
and Green streets.
The first attempt made was a successful
one to enter the store of George L. Wat
son, dealer in carpets and furniture. En-
trance was effected through the rear
door, but the thieves were evidently
scared OF before they got to work, for no
disturbance of the goods was made.
The hardware store OF Denton, late
Lawson, door or two above Watson's,
was next tried. The store was attacked
from the rear, bur in saving through one
of the panels OF the rear door u burglar
alarm wire was struck. The thieves i'm
mediately recognized the probable result
of this accident aud vanished.

them of the folly of the course they pro-
posed to follow.
1t was a very hard undertaking. One of
the girls, Karen Sylvestersen by name, who
acted as spokeswoman for the party, frankly
acknowledged that they were all willing to
be one of seven or eight wives, and were
fully aware of the principles OF Mormonism.
The girls are all young and pretty. The at
tempt of the missionaries to influence them
proved an utter failure, and as all that the
barge office authorities can do IS

BOLD EXPRESS ROBBERY.
A Good Sum secured-Tried to XIII the
Messenger.

TOLEDO, o., Oct. IA Blade special
from Carty's gives an account Of a bold
train robbery this morning on the Cincin-
natl, Sandusky and Cleveland railroad be-
tween that place aud Urbana. Immediately
after the train left Urbana two masked
men with cooked revolvers entered the ex-
pres car and compelled the Adams express
messenger, A. L. Scudder, to throw up his
hands. They then tied him securely
and robbed the safe of pack
ages containing several thousand dollars and
other vaiuables. While they were at work
a brakeman attempted TO enter the car, and
was shot at by one robber. He gave the
alarm and the train was slowed up 10 give
an opportunity to capture the robbers, but
they jumped from the train just as it was
entering West Liberty and disappear ed in
the darkness. il being then 500 O'clock.
TRIED To SHOOT THE MESSENGER.
Messenger Scudder was bound in his chair
with a wash line that the robbers brought
with them. One of them, whom the other
called "Jack, +" tried to kill Scudder before
leaving the car. Placing his revolver at
his head, he pulled the trigger, buG the
cartridge failed to explode. Another rob
Der then prevented him from making an
other attempt.
When the train pulled out of West
Liberty the two scoundreIs got aboard
again, holding the entire crew at bay.
Scudder, who had been released. opened
fire on them with pistol from his car door,
but was compelled to retreat The robbers
kept on board until Bellefontaine was
reached, when they again jumped off and
disappeared. Officers at Bellefontaine are
searching for them.
Scudder is about so years old, lives in
Cincinnati and has been on this run since
the Adams company took charge of the
express business upon it. About three
years ago he was previously in the same
compauy's employ on Ohio river lines. He
had just received his months salary, and
that was among the booty.

AN OBNOXIOUS PROVISION.
English Traders Ask Modification Of
the Administrative Customs Law.

English Traders Ask Modification Of
the Administrative Customs Law.
WASHINGTON Oct 2-The customs ad-
ministrative act requires that manufac-
turers consigning goods for sale in the
United States shall make declaration,
showing the actual cost Of production, the
cost of material, and, in detail, every ex-
pense making up the invoice price. The
London Chamber of Commerce recently
represented to the United States consul
general at London that this was unfair in
formation to ask, and requested that the
following declaration be permanently au-
thorized:
That for trade reasons I decline TO give
my consignee the particulars asked for in
the declaration form of manufactured
goods, but am willing TO give the same to
the United States consul general for his per-
sonal satisfaction"
Assistant Secretary Batcheller has in
formed the department of state that this
request cannot be granted, and that con-
sistentlyewith the provisions of the law no
other form of declaration than that speci-
fed can be accepted.
LoNDoN's PRESS ON THE M'KINLEY TARIFF.
LONDON. Oct. 2.-The Chronicle doubts
the wisdom Of the Canadian statesmen in
fnl neighbor on account of the Mckinley
bill, especially when the opinion prevails in
many quarters that the new law is a pre-
lude TO a more enlightened policy
The 7STaeS is disposed to agree very
largely with the Canadian ministers that
the Mckinley tariff must be recognized as q
demonstration of hostility against England
hardly less decided than were the Berlin
and Milan DEGREES of Napoleon. The Time,
adds: mo reason can be assigned it except
desire to injure British interests
The Telegraph says: "It is gratifying
to receive such indications of Canadian
strength, loyalty and confidence. While
such feelings animate Cananian people and
statesmen it will be admitted at Washing
ton that commercial pressure is not likely
to induce a desire for political amalgama-
tion."

says it is stated that the German govern
ment contemplates reprsals if the United
States government should refuse to modify
