ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Dec. 2.-The Adams
Express Company, it is now stated. will
lose about $4,000 by the robbery of the
Frisco" night express car near Glendale

criminal sensation Of the first order. The
safe of the express company was completely
rified, and although yesterday Supt. DAM

M'KINLEY's TARIFF ACT.
The Question of Its Constitutional
Before the Supreme Court.

The Question of It's Constitutionality
Before the Supreme Court.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2-The hearing of
three cases involving the constitutionality
of the Mckinley tariff act was closed in
the United States supreme court to-day.
Solicitor General Taft then opened for the
government in the case brought here by the
United States on an appeal from the de-
cision of the circuit court " the United
States for the Southern district of New
York In favor Of Ballin, Joseph & Co. This
case involves the validity of the Dingley
worsted act.
THE POINT OF NO QUORUM.
The point of most public interest in con-
nection with the act is that the question Of
"no quorum" Is raised. Speaker Reed hav-
ing in order to make a quorum counted la
number of democrats who were In their
seats but refrained from voting. The
solicitor generals position is that the
House had power to make the rule under
which the bill was passed and that the
question of the wisdom of the rule is one
with which the court has nothing to do,
the remedy being in the House itself and
ultimately in the people, who elect the rep
rAaentatiVeS.

BLooDTHIRsTY PAR1sIANs

Crowd the Place dc Ia Roquette to
Witness "a Double Execution.
PARIS, July 2S.-The execution OF
Young Berland and Dore, two accom-
plices Of Mere Berlaud in what is
known as the Courbeyoie murder, took
place yesterday on the Place dc la Ro-
quette, and attracted the usual crowd
of bloodthirsty spectators. The mnn
about town and the woman about town
were there in force, regardless of the
fact that they had been anxiously, nor
vonsly waiting for the execution for a
week past, and that they had haunted
the neighborhaod of the gloomy old
prison morning after morning, daily ex-
pecting the feast of blood to which
they had invited themselves.
Berland walked calmly to the guillo-
tine, but desperate struggle took place
on the scaffold. Finally the execu-
tioners succeeded in forcing the Grim
inal down upon the bascule and from
there slid his head under the knife.
Dore did not make any resistance. The
execution OF the two men occupied only
eight minutes of time.
Mere Berland, as already cabled, has
been granted reprieYe.
No sooner had the second execution
occurred than the crowd, with com
'bined, mighty rush, broke through the
Gordon OF troops and police, and, rush
1ng up to the scaffold, gloated over the
blood stained apparatus, some of the
most horrible taking u handful of saw
dust away as souvenir of the exeeu-
fions.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2S. = Advices
just received from China give particu-
lars of fresh depredations by the Chinese
against the missionaries. The latest at
tack was made at Yankao on June 20,
when the Catholic mission was method
ically looted, the crowd passing things
from hand to hand in a chain. The
buildings were afterwards set on fire.
A few days previous four chapels were
destroyed in Kiangsi, near the city of
Fucholn. The chapel, school and resi-
dence of the priest were plundered and
burned on June 26. On the same day
some predatory bands completely de-
stroyed a French orphanage at place
called Haimen. In addition to the de-
struction of the orphanage, eight or
nine of the wretched little children cared
for in the building We're carried off.

County Officials Found Guilty by q
Committee of Lawyers.


WEST CHESTER, Pa, July 2s.-The
Chester county bar held the most excit-
ing meeting of its history here yester-
day. Nearly every member of the bar
was present to hear the reading of the
report of committee appointed to look
into charges made against county Off
cials. This committee consisted of J.
F. E. Hause, T. w. Pierce, A. M.
Holding, II. H. Gilkyson and A. P. Reid,
and their report clearly shows that
nearly all the court house officers have
for many years been taking advantage
of their position by charging amounts
largely in excess of those allowed by law.
This is particularly so in the case of the
clerk Of the courts office and the sheritf's.
In his remarks on the matter T. w.
Pierce said that there have been clients
who complained of the large amounts
charged them in the county offices and
have pushed the matter, and the excess
money was returned to them, mani
fest pleading of guilty ON the part of the
officials. Register Frank A. Thomas,
Sheriff James G. Parker and Clerk of
the Courts Morgan Ruth are the ones
who came under the fire. They have
been doing just what their predecessors
have, but the matter is now to be probed
to the bottom and mended. After o
long discussion the report was accepted.
