AN EXPRESS CAR ROBBED
THE JOB CARRIED THROUGa NEAR
UTICA.

Entrance to the Cor Gained by Saving
or Boring Hold Through the Front
End-The Robber Held a Revolver at
the Messengers Head in One Hand
and Assorted His Packages With the
Other.
UTICA, N. Y, Sept 30.-Express train
No. 81. due here at $40 o'clock shis morn
ing, was robbed between here and Little
Falls. The robber brought the train to a
standstill q mile east of the city by applying
the air-brakes by means of tine valve in the
car and escaped in the darkness. The ex-
press agent in charge of the car was B. A.
Moore. As the train only stopped here a
few minutes Only part of his story was Sc
cured. The robber opened the front door Of
the car and surprised Moore while at
work. He covered Moore with reviewers
and sorted over the packages, taking such
as he supposed were valuable.
1t is not known how much was taken, but
one package of 5000 in currency was con-
cealed by Moore and saved. The fobber
was masked. Moore continued on the train.
He has been in the employ of the company
ten or twelve years, and there is no prob
ability that his story is other than the true
ono,
NEVER 50 SURPRISED IN HIS LIFE.
BUFFALO, N. Y, Sept. 30.-Moore, the
messenger who was robbed reached here to
day and was interviewed by a reporter, to
whom he said well, sir, l was never 60
surprised In my life. All at once, while at
work as usual near Utica, heard a pistol
shot right in my ears. l jumped up, and
right before me stood a burglar with. the
muzzle of his revolver in my face.
BORED HIS WAY IN.
"He secured an entrance in the car
by boring and saving hole
through the front end. | did not hear
him because of the rumbling Of the train,
or l would have been on guard, of course.
But it was a complete surprise, and l was
dumbfounded. He assorted some of the
packages right before my eyes, holding his
revolver in one hand and doing the work
with the other. He seemed in a hurry, and
soon jumped up, pulled the air-brake cord
Jumped from the train and was lost in the
darkness quicker than it takes to tell it."
TWO IN THE JOB.
Moore saws there were two robbers, but
only one entered his car. The other kept
the messenger covered with revolver
through hole in the door while his com
panion did the work. The amount obtained
by the robbers is not accurately known, but
was not large Moore lives in Buffalo. He
bears good reputation, and no blame is al
present attached to him for the robbery
The cuprits who did the work are believed
to be old hands in the business, but for onct
they fooled themselves by being in toe

The Minister of the Country at Paris
Doubts the Story.
PARIS, Sept. 30.-The minister in this CITY
of the Republic of Guatemala was inter
viewed to-day in regard to the reports that
a revolution had occurred in that country,
aud that in the fighting which followed
there had been great loss of life. The min
ister stated that he had received no advices
that there had been any fighting, though it
is probable that had there been any trouble
he would have been notified. He had re-
csiyed telegraphic advices from his govern
ment since Sept. Is, on which day the revolt
is said to have broke out, but no mention
was made in them of any facts that would
in any way Justify the circulation of the re-
ports Of a revolution.
sALvADoR's THREAT.
In connection with the rumors that the
government of Salvador had dispatched a
body of troops TO the frontier of Guatemala,
the minister said that he was in position
to deny that there was any foundation for
such reports In conclusion he stated that
he believed the reports of trouble in Guate-
mala and the movements of Salvadoran
troops to be the invention of over-lmagIna-
tive newspaper correspondents.

NO WAR SHOW OFF CHILE.
The Navy Department Not Contem-

The Navy Department Not Contem-
plating a Demonstration.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 3O.-There no deveI-
opments in the Chilean situation this MORN
ing. The published stories of naval
demonstrations to be made in Chile
by our vessels were received with
amusement at the navy department..
There are no available vessels in the
Pacific that would suffice to make
an imposing demonstration as to number.
The San Francisco, which was on her way
northward from Chile, was communicated
with by cable at Payta, Peru by the navy
department and ordered TO remain there
until the receipt of further orders. She
will be held there for time In readiness to
meet any emergency that may arise.
THE YORKTOWN GOING TO CHINA.
The Yorktown was ordered to China a
month ago. She is at New York preparing
for her voyage, and is expected to sail next
week. As she Is to 60 around the South
American continent she will in course of
time, touch at Valparaiso; but as that city
is nearly 10000 miles distant from New
York by the usual route, it will be nearly
two months before she can arrive
there. 1t does not appear that
there is any intention on the
part of the navy department TO send any of
the other vessels of the White Squadron to
Chile, so that it is probable that the Balti-
more, and possibly the San Francisco, will
continue for several months as the sole rep
resentatlves in that country Of the United
States navy, unless there should arise some
unexpected emergency.
THE SAN FRANCISCO ORDERED BACK.
During the afternoon Commodore Ram
say was in consultation with Secretary
Tracy, and the result, as announced later in
the day, was an order for the cruiser San
Francisco, then at Payta, Peru, to
proceed Immediately to Callao and
thence to Valparaiso. IL neces.
sary further instructions to govern
the course of the vessel when she arrives at
Valparaiso will be sent to her when she
touches at Callao. Secretary Tracy de
clined absolutely to give his reason for
sending the ship back to Chile and refused
to discuss the case.
WHARTON WON'T TALK.
Acting Secretary Wharton was besought
to make a stateme at OF the actual ia Is in
the present complication or at least to give
TO the public some assurance that the situa-
ton is not as critical as it is represented to
be in some publications. The acting secre-
tary, however, did not feel at liberty to say
one word upon the subject. Still there is
reason 30 believe that no further overt acts
have been committed by the Chilean junta,
and that the return of the San Francisco to
Chile is simply in pursuance of an intention
formed several days ago to give moral affect
to Minister Egan's position by the presence
of Admiral Brown and his flagship at Val
DaraisO.

sal suffrage the popularity of the czar is so
great that be would get millions of
votes and perhaps large majority.
France lends to no country
but Russia and the latter will be able to bor-

regards it as national loan, and as much
cheaper than French rentes At the same
