NORTH YAKIMA. July 5.--This afternoon
while Northern Pacific freight train No. Sc
was stopping at Yakima Conductor
Needles ran into saloon near the depot to
get time check cashed. and received for
the same four $50 gold pieces. Two rough
looking strangers were intthe saloon at the
time, and after noting the transaction hur-
ried out. Mr.. Needles paid no especial at
ten;ion to their movements, and would
have ihoght no mere about ithad he not
encountered the same two men on enter
ing the caboose. When the train was fif-
teen miles east of this point brakeman
was with the conductor and he proceeded
to ask for the tickets.
He was met with the answer that they
were old railroad men, and they went
down into their inside coat pockets as if to
produce credentials, but instead each drew
a revolver and, covering his man, de-
manded their money. Protestations were
in vain, as the highwaymen knew they had
coin, and finally they yielded up their CON-
bined capital of s12o. As the train slowed
up at a crossing the robbers dropped off.
Superintendent Prowel was notified by
telegraph, and he came down from Ellens-
burg with special engine and coach and
picked up Sheriff Lesh and posse at Yak
ina, who were sonn. securing the country.
Deputy Sheriff Dan Simmons found the
highwaymen, after a brief search, in a
squaw camp where they were bargaining
for ponies to take them out of the country.
He covered them with his gun. and, assist
ance being close at hand. they were quickly
secured. The captors earn a reward of
$3.50, $50. of which was offered by Con-
ductor Needles, S100 by the company and
si00 by Yakima county. The case is a
clear one, and they are bound to go over
the road as the money was found in their

SENATE TARIFF BILL ATTACKED
Wool Growers Declare That It Would
Destroy Their Industry.

Wool Growers Declare That It Would
Destroy Their Industry
ST. LOUIS. July 5.--The officers of the
Wool Growers National Association have
issued another address to the wool growers,
setting forth the dangers of the proposed
Senate amendments to the Mckinley bill
as far as wool is concerned. The address
says:
Sc ator Hale's amendment, If adopted, will
admit wool free of duty from all the nations of
this hemisphere. Cleveland's free wool recon-
mendstion was no more dangerous. Foreign
wool would supplant domestic wool and your
industry would perish. The republican plat
form would be violated, the principles of pro-
lection surrendered and the production of the
wool necessary for clothing in the United States
transferred to foreign nations.
The address further protests against the
proposed Senate amendments to strike out
the clause prohibiting sorting of woods. and
to strike out the words Including charges"
thus raising the dividing line. and continues:
We have yielded all that can be safely yielded
in justice TO our industry to secure general pro-
tective legislation. Any of the amendments re-
ferred to are dangerous Hale's amendment
would work absolute ruin. Either one of these
amendments will perpetuate fraudu'ent prac-
tices in the importation of carpet wool, etc. We
call for your immediate action as individuals
and as associations. Give notice to those repre-
senting you in the halls Of legislation that you
expect the Republican party to redeem their
pledges and fulfill their promises by speedily
passing the Mckinley bill

Murdered and Thrown in the Lake.

SARATOGA, n. Y, July 5.-Frederick
Sheppard, of New York, was found dead
in Lound lake yesterday. The body was
naked, and it was at first supposed he
was drowned while swimming. An
autopsy showed none of the ordinary evil
dences of drowning, but wounds sufficient
to cause death were found upon the body.
and it was discovered that his clothing was
rified of a valuable watch and sum of
money. The indications are that he was
murdered on the shore of the lake and the
body stripped and thrown into the water
to give the appearance of accidental death.
Much excitement prevails.

FRENCH pRoHIBITIvE DUTIES.
American Corn and Wheat to Be Z,

cluded. as Well as Pork.
PARIS, July 5.-The Senate has shown its
hand plainly in regard to American oues-
tions. After long debate 1t voted 8
francs duty on corn and 6 francs on corn
meal. 1t was distinctly avowed that the
duty on corn was to be considered only a
continuation of the policy toward Ameri-
can pork.
Decariel declared that the importation of
American pork was only another mode of
importing American corn, and the French
farmers could not maintain themselves
against it. The prohibition of pork was
right and ought to be maintained, and the
duty on corn should also be made prohibit
tive.
Millard called attention to the fact that
American pork is prohibited on the ground
of alleged unhealthfulness. He declared
that this was merely pretext.
An article published in the Temps, and
thought TO reflect the views of the govern
ment, suggests that there might be circum-
stances under which it may be desirable to
Withdraw the prohibition against pork.

DELEGATE d. w. BusHYHRAD re-
Gently called at the White House
and had a long interview with
President Harrison. In talking
over the Cherokee strip matter,
Harrison did not admit absolute
title, but admitted the "claim to
ownership" under the treaties of
1928 and 1888. The president
thinks the best way to settle the
question is for the Cherokees to
sell the land for fair price. Per-
haps all will end well--a fair price
is what most of the people want,
but the price will notbe consider
ed fair unless those concessions
are a part of the consideration.
