A CRISIS REACHED
In the Affairs of Commissioner Of
Pension Raum'S Administration.
HE DEMANDS THE RESIGNATION
OF Three Men, Whom BE Alleges Havs Made
False Ltidavlts Regarding Bis Sons IrAa-
sncs in Ssccring Promotions in
the Dspsrtnnt-His Letter 10 The
Secretary Of the IntSrlr.

WASHINGTON, d. c., September s0.-
A crisis has been reached in affairs OF
the Pension 0flice, General Raum having
demanded the dismissal OF three promi-
nent employees In his Office who, he be-
lleves, are plotting TO injure his charac
ter and compel his resignation. These
men are j. Edgar Engle, of Pennsyl-
vania; f. NJ. Taylor, OF Illinois, and
Edward Howard, OF Connections.
Gen. Raum, In his letter 70 Secretary
Noble, maintains that their influence In
the Office is demoralizing In the ex-
treme. 1t is understood that one OF the
immediate causes of this action, In the
case OF Engle and Howard at least, Is
the affidayits recently filed with Secre-
tary Noble, charging young Mr.. Raum
with attempting 10 obtain money from
them In consideration Of his influence
with his father in securing their promo
tion. Young Mr.. Rsum has made an
affidavit which he has sent TO the Sec
retary denying the statements made by
Engle and Howard. His father charac-
terlzes the allegations that his sons In
fuence gained promotions or appoint
ments in favor OF his friends, as entire-
ly without foundation In fact. General
Raum believes that the charges made
against his son are not only untrue, but
that they are cruel, as the evident IN
tention is to strike down the father
through the son.

CITIZENS CLAIMS
On Direct Tax Fund Paid to Jefferson

On Direct Tax Fund Paid to jefferson
and Berkeley Counties some Time Ago
SPeaGl Telegram 10 the Register.
WASHINGTON, d. c., September 3d.
1t has been discovered that West vir-
ginia, long ago, under Acts of the Leg
islature of 1867, Chapter ffty-fve, and
Joint Resolution No. IA of the Legisla-
ture Of 1869, refunded to the citizens Of
Jefferson and Berkeley counties the
amount of direct tax collected from
them by U. S. officers. The Secretary
OF the United States Treasury has late
ly paid about So, 500 to the Governor on
account Of West Virginia claims for the
cities OF those counties, who paid the
tax, but as it now turns out that the
State has already reimbursed such par
ties as individually paid under the di-
rect levy, this fine sum will not go to
those persons, but will be retained in
the State Treasury for the benefit of
the State. West Virginia thus, long
ago, generously and quickly took care
OF its citizens. This is a great surprise
to those in the two above mentioned
counties, who were expecting the sum
to be distributed among them. It's not
known what effect this fact will have
upon the refunding OF the balance of
the direct tax due to West Virginia, but
the question Of the so-called citizens
claims is now removed from the casa

AN INsURGENT ARMY
Marching Against the City of Guate-
maIa.

mala.
CITY OF MEXICO, September 30.-A
dispatch received in this city from New
ton, Yesterday afternoon, says that 200
men, indifferently armed, are marching
from Guetzaltenango on the City Of
Gnatemala.
The latter city, which is still under
martial law, is invested with govern
ment troops, who will march out and
give battle to the insurgent army.
The work of executing the men who
took part in the recent revolt still con-
tinues.
The only news of trouble in Guatema-
la is either received by special courier
to Newton or by fleeing Guatemalans,
who are seeking the hospitality of the
southern frontier Of Mexico.
The independent papers of the City Of
Guatemala continue their attacks upon
the Presidential candidates. They also
severely criticize the government in the
strongest language. Ell Duende devotes
columns'to antagonizing Lorenzo Mon
tuaro, one of the Presidential candi-
dates. One of the sons of Montuaro has
brought q libel suit against the editor.
In the suit the editor made an objection
to one of the jurors, and it is now stated
that MOntuaro is endeavoring TO with
draw the charge preferred against him.
Owing to the double assassination, In
which Gen. Sanchez was killed by Col.
Jobon, and the latter by Romual
Sanchez, one of the youngest OF four
brothers, the entire male portion the
family, with the exception Of Manuel,
who was out of town, were cast into
prison. Manuel made his escape to San
Salvador, the capital of Salvador. There
he got into dispute with some Of the
residents regarding the late war between
Guatemala and Salvador, and he shot
and killed three persons.
1t is rumored in Guatemala that
Toledo, President Barillias' private sec
rotary, who left that city few days
ago on Government mission TO the De-
partment of the West, has been assas-
snated while en- route, as nothing has
been heard of him.
The proprietors of printing Office
called La Union were advised by Barll-
las that if they should print any opposi-
tion papers in their establishment they
would be thrown into prison and their
property confscated. To this DiarO de
CG1LtrO america, an opposition journal,
after printing Barllas' notice, makes
the following sarcastic comment: 1--WE
will not say that this is not an attack
upon the liberty of the press, nor much
less on the advancement Of industry.

"HoLD YOUR WHEAT" CIRCULARS
Issued by Alliance men-A Queer Argu-
ment About Prices

NhChN HDO0e -
ST. PAUL, MINI, September 3d.
Two more wheat "hold-your-crop" cir
culars are out. The FIRST is from Ignas
titus Donnelly, President Of the Mime
sofa Alliance, who urges farmers to
hold their wheat for thirty days longer.
In 1t he says: 81 think every intelligent
man In Minnesota knows that wheat Is
now selling at far below its actual
value, but the Alliance as an
organization has not taken the
responsibility OF giving any advice on
the subject, believing it to be outside
their function to do so, and hazardous
experiment to make In any official way.
But it is very clear that if not bushel
of wheat is sold In Minnesota by the
farmers during the next thirty days,
that the wheat pits OF Chicago, New
York and London would be full OF dead
bears. and the farmers would get for
their wheat crop what it Is really
worth"
The State will come out on Friday
with another circular. The contents
of the circular are much the same as
those of the last one. This one simply
takes up the wheat situation where the
other left off, The crops Of the ten
years from 1850 to 1890, arc taken as
tide basis OF computation, and the cir
cular holds that there is danger Of ex-
porting too much wheat.
The circular argues that higher
prices for wheat does not necessarily
mean more expensive bread.

BOLD TKAIN RoBRERR
On the Central Hudson Road, New York.
Beats the Wild West.

UTICA, n. Y, September 30.-The
special American Express train, No. 81
due here at $40 a. m. to-day, was rob-
bed between here and Little Falls. The
robber brought the train to standstill
a mile east of this city by applying the
air brake by means of the valve in the
car, and he then escaped in the dark
ness. The express agent in charge OF
the car was B. A. Moore. 1t seems that
the robber went to the front door of the
car and got the fastnings open and
surprised Moore while at work. He
covered Moore with a revolver and
sorted over the packages, taking
such as he supposed were valuable.
One package OF So, 600 in currency was
concealed by Moore and was therefore
saved The robber was masked. Moore
continued on the train. He has been
in the employ of the company ten or
twelve years, and there is no probability
that his story is other than true. As
the train ran into the Central depot at
9:20 this forenoon reporter boarded
the car and asked Mr.. Moore to explain
the robbery. "Well, sir" said he, 81
was never so surprised in my life. All
at once while at work asserting pack
ages near Utica heard pistol shot>in
my ears. jumped up and right before
me stood a masked burglar with the
muzzle Of his revolver in my face. He
had secured an entrance into the
car by boring and saving hole through
the frontsend. He assorted some pack
ages 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. My impression
is that be did not get much. He over
looked a package containing $4,000 in
currency, but got considerable jewelry.
There were two of them. One kept his
revolver pointed at me through the hole
in the car.
