WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE committee
on appropriations to-day reported to the
House the sundry civil appropriation bill,

estimates, and $2,628,801 in excess of
the appropriations carried by the last

ditures which were not features of the last
sundry civil account, namely: Light house
establishment, increase, 81 1000; engraving
and printing bureau, increase, $50, 600; irri-
cation survey, increase, $527, 500; eleventh

ATRAIN ROBBER BAGGED
FIVE MEN IMPLICATED IN THE
NEW SALEM JOB.

The Captive's Escape Prevented by
an Accident to His Horse-He Tells
the Direction Taker by His Compan-
ions-An Effort Being Made to OYER
take Them.
DICKINSON, n. D., June 11.-Intense ex-
citement prevailed here last night when the
news spread that Sheriff Hayes of this
county had captured one of the participants
in the robbery of Northern Pacific train
at New Salem last Sunday. The sheriff
and two other men arrived with their
prisoner and lodged him in jail In cross
ing Grand river about eighty miles south
of here the robbers horse was injured,
compelling him to stop in his
fight. and when the officers first discovered
him yesterday morning he made a desperate
effort to escape; but, after race Of several
miles, and seeing that escape was impossi-
BILE, ne surrendered. He supposed that his
time had come TO die and gave some valua-
BILE information, showing that the robbery
OF the train had been deliberately planned.
He gave his name as Charles E Bailey.
FIVE MEN IN THE BAND.
There were five mon In the band, two Of
whom came from the west on the train.
The other three were In readiness at the
scene of the robbery with horses, and after
tuo goD was CulpleDeu LHe LnT6e ldbtef
started south and separated when a few
miles out, one going toward the Missouri
river, one west, and the prisoner was max
ing for the Black Hills. The two who came
from the west remained on the train,
and from what the prisoner says there is no
doubt that it was the intention to rob the
passengers, but for some reason this was
abandoned. The prisoner offered the sheriff
81, 200 to release him. Sheriff Hayes left
sgain last night to attempt the capture of
the bandit that started east. The prisoner
claimed that he was under obligation to as
sist the others, but he is desperate
looking man and evidently q
desperate. When captured he was
supplied with a fifty-pound sack Of -four
and scme bacon, and could have subsisted
for two weeks on what provisions he had.
The country south of here is almost barren
of settlement, and the sheriff is deserving OF
much credit for his success.

Mr.. Yoder of Ohio protested against the
conference report. holding that it ignored

the capitol his petition for per diem rate

Mr.. Springer entered vigorous protest
against the manner in which the bill was

opportunity offered to the members to ex-
anime its provisions. AS he viewed the bill
| it was an instance of the laboring of the
mountain and the bringing forth of very

Mr. Cannon favored the bill on the
ground that it would place on the pension
rolls 250, 900 names, and would increase the
pension of so, 900 men now on the rolls.
Mr.. McComas of Maryland elected

An Effort to Have the Matter Decided
at an Election.
BATON ROUGE, June 11.-W.A. Crandall,
chairman of the democratic state central
committee, last night wrote letter to State
Senator Foster, leader of the anti-lottery
faction in the legislature, suggesting as a
means of settling the lottery question and
avoiding dIssensions within the party ranks
that the state central committee be con-
vened within ten days and that they order
primary elections throughout the state at
which white people only will be allowed
to participate, said election to be held
within thirty days, and, If a majority of
those voting at the primaries favor the sub
mission of the lottery amendment to the
people, the governor is to call a special ses-
sion of the legislature for that purpose
within thirty days after said election.
Mr.. Crandall adds: "You will, Of course,
understand that in order to carry out the
above suggestion the cooperation of the
governor will be necessary"
The lottery amendment was introduced in
the House Monday, and yesterday was
referred to special committee without
opposition.

COLUMBUS STRIKE RIOT.

A Renewal of the Attempt to Run
Oars Causes More Trouble.
COLUMBUS, O., June 1.-The Consoli-
dated Street railway made another effort
to start cars this morning, and the results
and scenes enacted were similar to those of
Monday. The cars had proceeded but a
few squares when thousands had gathered,
and the tracks were blocked with stones
and rubbish. One of the new employees was
driven off by threats of arrest for receiving
money under false pretenses. He had been
bought off by the strikers. Women took
big hand in stopping the cars. The mayor
was present, and ordered the arrest of two
citizens who were blocking the tracks.
THE SITUATION THREATENING.
The situation was threatening, but no one
was injured. The employees at some of the
leading manufactures closed down and
turned out as soon as they learned the cars
were to be started. Their object was to
aid the strikers. The mayor is preparing a
list and getting ready to call meeting of
leading citizens to consider the threatening
situation. The company insists on protec-
ton from the police, and the mayor claims
that the police force is inadequate to the
task. The mayor states that he will ask
for militia If demand ismade by the street
railroad company, as a compromise.

REEDS NEW COMMITTEEMAN.
He Liked Turner, but Took Mills as q
NeCesSitV.

Necessity.
WASHINGTON, June 11.-Speaker Reed
appointed Representative Turner of Georgia
to his old place on the committee on ways
and means in Mr.. Carlisle's stead because
he wanted to, and Mr.. Mills of Texas to Mr..
Carlisle's place on the committee on rules
because he could not help it, All winter
Speaker Reed has been publicly regretting
that, having been obliged to leave Mr..
Turner off of the ways and means commit
tee, he had not found a place for him else
where suitable to his talents. Mr.. Mills. as
the titular leader of the democrats and
member of the committee on rules in the
last House, was of course entitled to sue
ceed Mr. Carlisle on the committee on rules,
but the speaker did not want Mr.. Mills,
partly because he did not like him. but
chiefly because he knew that Mr.. Mills
would not vote for steamship subsidies, and
he wanted democrat on the committee
who would to balance Mr.. Cannon, the re-
publican who would not. 1t is a proud
thing for the democrats to be able to say
that he vas not able to find one democrat of
the requisite standing who would agree to
vote for subsidies, and SO he had to take Mr..
Mills. This means no subsidies this season.

QUAY OUT WITH SHERMAN.
The Latter's Vote Against Bailey

Brought on Storm.
WASHINGTON, June 1L-Senator Sher-
man was Senator Quay's candidate at Chi
cago. and they were fast friends until the
break over Judge Gilkeson, whom Senator
Quay thought was TO be appointed solicitor
of internal revenue under an understanding
with Senator Sherman, but who was set
aside for ex-Representative Hart of Ohio, a
friend OF Senator Sherman's. When, how
ever, Senator Sherman explained afterward
that he had nothing to do with the appoint
ment of Mr.. Hart, and when Mr.. Gilkeson
had been provided with a better place as
second controller, Senator Quay forgave
Senator Sherman, and they have been quite
friendly.
ANOTHER SPLIT.
Last night in tho republican senatorial
caucus they parted company again rather
violently, and hereafter, unless they make
up, viii not speak as they pass by. 1t
seems, according to the story, that Senator
Quay thought that Senator Sherman had
promised to vote for Mr.. Bailey for
sergeant-at-arms, since Ohio, for wonder,
had not candidate, and when Senator
Sherman voted for another candidate last
night Senator Quay's wrath arose, and he
denounced it hotly then and there as a
violation of a pledge. Senator Sherman
kept cool as usual and denied that there had
been any pledge or any occasion for Senator
Quay's heat. They did not come to blows,
but Senator Quay's violence Of speech cost
Mr.. Bailey other votes.

LIVERPOOL, June 1.-The damage sus-
tanned by the Anchor line steamer City Of
Rome, which struck Fastnet rock last Sun
day morning while bound from New York
for this port, is much more serious than
was at first supposed. A further examina-
tion reveals hole twenty feet long in the

pected to make the necessary repairs.
The experts who examined the hull of the
City of Rome declared that the prompt
closing of the sliding door in the bulkhead,
separating the 'forepeak from the adjacent
compartment, alone prevented the steamer
from instantly sinking after she struck.
Her prov is torn away for distance of
twenty feet from the keel, the damage ex-
tending laterally for some distance.

England and Germany to Settle Their
Differences.

Differences.
LONDON, June 1.-THE ST. james Ga
eette, in an article on the negotiations now
being carried on by England aud Germany
relative to their territory in Africa, says it
is probable that a settlement will be reached
by the terms of which the Germans will
evacute With and abandon their claims
TO territory behind With. The Gazette
further says that the line win be drawn
across Victoria Nyanza one degree south of
the equator to the eastern boundary of the
Congo state. All the disputed territory north
of this line will be British, and all south
of 1t German. The English win be entitled
TO construct and use a road from Victoria
Nyanza to Lake Tanganarika. The En-
gllsh will also have absolute control of the
Stevenson road from Lake Tanganarika to
Lake Nyassa aud Of the region round Lake
Bangweolo and the Urangu territory. The
action OF Dr. Peters and the treaties he has
made with the native chiefs, the Gazette
says, will be expressly disavowed at Berlin.
BRITISH EDITORS SARCASTIC.
LONDON. June 12, A. M.-The Chronicle,
commenting on the proposed settlement OF
the East African question, as announced by
the St james Gazette, says it is the most
abjsct and ignominious surrender
OF British interests that has
peeu nade since England Abandoned her
American colonies It adds: Little is left
to surrender now except Egypt. The resto-
ration Of Asace-Lorraine TO France, which
would have given Europe some hope of
peace, would have been a cheap price TO de-
mand from Germany for such concession. u
The Daily NetUs thinks the announce
ment in the 50. James Gazette ais feeler
to ascertain public opinion on tho question.
Germany, it says, comedies two minor
points for one main point. The British
government is likely TO be in the ridiculous
position of the lady who. saying that she'd
ne'er consent, consented"

A SHAMELESS PENSION GRAB.
The Probable Expenditures Under the

The Probable Expenditures Under the
Disability Bill.
WASHINGTON, June 11.-Sixty millions
is the most conservative accurate estimate
of the amount which will have to be appro-
priated for the first year under the require
ments of the disability pension bill, which
has finally been agreed upon by the two
houses and will be signed by the president.
One hundred millions is the lowest estimate
for the second year. After that no one can
guess how much will be required. The
hole in the bill through which the taxes
will pour is the definition of disability
which admits all veterans suffering from
disabilities acquired since as well as during
the war. 1t directly encourages accidents
and diseases.
