WOMEN AS FOOTPADS.
A Peculiar Case os Highway Robbery
Reported from Chicago.

CHICAGO, March 2uh.-Lincoln Shannon
had novel experience Wednesday night.
While walking on Peoria street, on the
West Side, he was suddenly confronted by
two women with revol1ers. They requested
him to hold up his hands, and he promptly
complied. As he stood with his hands
pointing skyward ons of the fair footpads
went through his pockets, her companion
meanwhile holding an ugly-looking gun
unpleasantly close to his head
The women were respectfully dressed and
heavily veiled, making it impossible to see
their features. One was very large and
ng-looking woman, and the other was
of medium hight, and together they ap-
peared so formidable that Mr.. Shannon
considered it unwise to offer any resistance.
Having completed their investigations and
secured Sc or 81 and some papers, the
women ordered Shannon Ito git out" He
accordingly got with energy. The police,
as usual, were elsewhere, and have not yet
found the highway robbers. This is the
third case of robbery by these females
within two weeks.

actually blown to atoms. A large number
of men at once went to work at the ruins
where the bodies of twenty or thirty men
are supposed to be buried. At O'Clock

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
CHICAGO, March 27th.-A disastrous ex.
ploslon occurred this evening in the Chi
cago Sugar Refinery Company's plant. One
man was fatally hurt and twenty Others
severely burned. The explosion occurred
in the starch drying room, and is supposed
to be from spontaneous combustion. A

The building were the explosion occurred

the main thirteen-story building. Twenty
seven were dt WOrK IN the Starch.rOOm
when, without warning, came a tremendous
report, followed by flashes of fire and the
rumbling of the falling timbers. Shattered
portions of the building and machinery
were hurled in every direction, and the
workmen were buried beneath mass of
debris which took fire.
The 200 men employed in the main
building were panic-stricken and rushed
into the street as soon as possible. The
cries of their imprisoned fellow laborers
brought them to their senses, and with the
aid of eighteen fire engines the fire was
subdued, and in short time the bruised
and bleeding victims cared for in the COM
pany's Laboratory.
All sorts of wild rumors flew about the
city and for time it was understood that
the main building had been wrecked and
scores killed.
Thousands of people hastened to the
scene, among them the wives, mothers and
children of the employees. These latter
fought their way through the mass of spec
tators and clamored for admission to the
laboratory.
Louis Nettshorst was the victim whose
injuries proved fatal.

not been completed to the frontier within

The Admission of the State Make

The Admission of the State Makes a
Difference in Title.
WASHINGTON, March 27th.-In the case OF
Frank Jones and others, who made appli-
cation TO locate Valentine scrip upon certain
lands near Seattle, Wash, which are below
high-water mark, but above low-water
mark, known as the tide lands, the Secre-
tary has decided that such land is not
within the intent of the Act of Congress
authorizing the issue OF Valentine scrip
and its location upon public lands of the
United States.
He holds further, that since the location
was upon unsurveyed lands, it was merely
reference right to perfect such location
after the survey as against the claims of
others except the United States, but that
until such location is adjusted to the public
surveys the United States has authority TO
dispose of lands covered thereby. Such
disposition, he holds, was made of the
tract in controversy by the admission of
Washington into the Union as State,
hence, even were it to be conceded that the
lands were, at the date of location subject
to disposal by the general Government, the
rights of the State are superior to those of
the scrip applicants.
1t is stated that the land in question is
located on the water front of the city of
Seattle, which, together with the improve.
ments, are valued at several million dollars.
