ROBBERS CAVE IN NEW YORK,
A Curious Discovery Made by Inspector
Byrne's Men.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2.-Police circles
of this city have been thrown into q
state of excitement by the discovery
by Detectives Hay and Taylor of a
genuine robbers cave in the block
bounded by Thirty-ninth and Fortieth
streets and Eighth and Ninth ave-
nues. For some time past thieves
have been traced to this locality
where they in some way mysterious
ly disappeared. The two detectives
were put on the case with instructions
to solve the mystery and after making
vain search of the buildings in the
block, had about given up in despair
when they found frail lattice door, in
the rear of an old tenement. Enter
ing the door they found an
arched passage way which they enter
ed and then discovered long flight
of stairs which finally brought them
into large vault, damp and covered
with slime. In the end of the vault
they found a pile of theatrical cos
tunes belonging to Col. John A. Nc
Caui, and which had recently been
stolen from the store of Charles Kan
stedt on Thirty-ninth street. Charles
Fisher and Edward Ryan, two ex-
convicts who had been frequently
seen in the neighborhood, were ar
rested charged with the crime.
The queer old vault, after careful
investigation, was found to have been
the site of an old illicit still located
there long wears ago, before that sec
tion of New York was built up.

MELBOURNE, THE RAINMAKER.
At Goodlands, Kas., He Adds Another to His
Successful Experiments.

GooDLANDs, Kas., Oct. 2.-Once
more Melbourne has been successful.
A light rain fell shortly before mid.
night last night and then the clouds
parted, but gathered again within a
half hour. The atmospheric phenon-
ema witnessed here within the past
four days have been sufficient to con-
vince nine-tenths of the population
that some wonderful influence has
been at work on the clouds. The
misting rain yesterday, followed
by parting clouds, the gathering
again later and the light rain last
night while the wind was blowing
steadily and strong, was condition
of weather never witnessed in this
country before. At o'clock this
morning the heavy wind died down,
and the thermometer began to fall
rapidly. 1t now looks more like snow
than rain, and no one is willing to
venture prediction on the result.
Those who have made wagers on the
result claim their money on last
nights rain. Prof. Melbourne's con-
tract calls for half inch rainfall.

Got the Mitten Every Time.

~ can marry any girl 1 please"
was his exclamation, but unfortunate
ly then he did not please any; and
there was q plain reason for it,. He
had contracted catarrh of the worst
form, and, although wealthy, edu-
Gated, attractive person every other
way, he was positively repulsive to
his lady friends, a number of whom
rejected his offers of marriage. A
friend advised him to use DR.. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy. He took his advice,
and is now the most popular beau in
town, and he really can "marry any
girl he pleases" to ask. 1t made his
breath pure and sweet, he has no
headache, no offensive discharge from
the nose, in short, is in perfect health
and all from using few bottles of
DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.

mand will be 80 per cent
greater than it was last wear.
when 1897 1855 bushels were taken,
abroad from all American ports which
will make, at moderate estimate, 1OS,-
391 ,941 bushels for the year. Owing
to the shortness of the wheat crop
abroad, these figures are probably on
the safe side. The months of heaviest
export during the year of 1892 will be
in February, March, April, May and
June. The present European crop
will supply the needs of foreigners
until after January when n demand
will be made on America. If the far
mer follows his usual habit of hurry
ing his corn to market during Novem-
Der and December, he will miss this
foreign demand and the broker who
buys and stores this grain will make
the money.

Twenty-Five Dollars.
Special TO The Statesman
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Oct. "a
Rio Grande City, Tex, letter says
that on Sept. "a Guadalupe Cara "fell
asleep" as his funeral notice reads,
with the unanimous approval of all
who knew him. He died with his
boots on. The place was the Tangues
ranch, six miles from here, and the
bullet which entered his back and
came out of his throat was fired from
Winchester rifle in the hands of
some person unknown. Cara was in
his house and was shot from the out
side. His enemies were SO many that
it will never be known who put out
his chunk. He was bepistoled des-
perado, and terror to his county.
The inquest developed only the salts
factory fact that Cara was dead.
Fernando Cruz and Bonifacio Gonzales
were arrested for the crime, and one
was released and the other is out on q
$25 bond to answer to the charge of
murder.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Oct. "A dis
patch from Runge, Karnes county,
says: For some unexplained reason
the deer of neighboring counties -ap-
pear to have all conferred near here.
For three weeks past the brush has
been filled with bucks, does and
fawns. They have vaulted over
pasture wires and in many places
cropped the grass in the pastures so
closely that cattle cannot live on it.
They have invaded corn fields and
broken down the growing stalks and
in some of the cotton plantations their
passage is marked by swath of
crushed plants. Venison has been
killed and given away here until
nobody will eat it. Yesterday
afternoon in ono hour by the sun,
Sam Daily, ranchman, left town on
horseback. A half mile away he ran
into bunch of thirty deer which
were browsing on the inside of the
road. He was armed with q Colts re-
volver and emptied six barrels into
the fleeing herd. He was rewarded
by three dead deer, and one which
had it's skin touched by bullet ran q
short distance and was subsequently
taken. Preparations are making for
a grand deer drive in which 200 men
will take part. 1t is the intention to
gradually pen the animals in the
corner of a pasture fence. For fear OF
accidents the hunters will be armed
only with pistols and clubs.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Oct. 2.-There
is every indication that the revolu-
tionary movement which recently as
sumed considerable prominence in
Northern Mexico is soon to break out
afresh and that this time Catarina
Cara and Gen. Sandoval, the intre-
pid leaders of the proposed uprising,
will use every effort to accomplish
their purposes. The following dis
patch reached Gen. Stanley here to-
day from John B. Richardson, United
States consul at Matamoras, Mexico.
IL have beer informed by Gen. Lajero
that l80 men have crossed from Mex
leo into Texas for the purpose of meet
ing Sandoval, who is supposed to be
bringing supplies of arms, ammuni-
ton and money. He also informs me
that the chief of police, either at La
redo OF Nueva Laredo, had traced San
doval to New Orleans, where he is
supposed to be in the interest of
Garza's movement. Gen. Lajero
wished me to communicate these
facts to the United States authorities,
with the request that they endeavor
to apprehend Sandoval before he
reaches the border. The captain of
the Texas Rangers at Alice has been
informed of the situation. There is
good deal of surprise and apprehen-
sion here that Cara has more sup
port than he appears to have"
Gen. Stanley stated that the United
States troops, now patrolling the
border for the purpose of intercepting
the revoiutionists had been instructed
to exercise every vigilence. The
troops at Fort Ringgold were today
reinforced by company E of the Eigh-
tenth infantry.
