Eight Hour Law III Kansas

The law passed by the recen. Kansas
Legislature providing that eight hours

of the state, will necessitate the clos
ing of all the state institutions, unless
special arrangements are made
The work cannot be done if the
present force of employees work

l eco new employees. The appropria-
tions viii not permit of any more en-

was referred to Attorney-General Ives.
who held that the authorities who per-
nit employees to work over eight hours
Il day will subject themselves to heavy
fines. The Governor will probably call

siding the scene Of Tuesdays nights

Superintendent }. p. Long of the Nor.
ris detective agency. , They have a
strong cleW 60 the identity Of the rob
bers, but refuse to say what it is. One
man however. they believe they are
Certain 20 catch. lie is The tel-
low who attempted to throw a
dynamite bomb through the transom
of a car. The bomb burst before
reaching the aperture, and one of the
pieces struck the robber on the foot,
disabling him. He fell and called out:
mo more dynamite in mine, boys,
am done for" His companions carried
him away. Mr.. Christeson thinks he
could not have gone far, and will be
easily caught. 1t has been learned
that the main body of the bandits
crossed the Rio Grande into Mexico
after the affair. They are all Ameri-
cans and will be traced without diff
Guilty. 1t is almost impossible for a
single American, much less a band,
to travel through that country with
out attracting attention. The Next
can soldiery of the state of Coahuila
have been put ON the trail, and the
governors of neighboring states noti-
fed.
In each of the Wells Fargo cars
there are two safes, one for local bust
ness and the other for through bust
ness. The latter is locked at Houston
and opened here, re-locked here and
not opened until it reaches San Fran
cisco. The messenger does not know
the combination. The contents are
generally very valuable. 1t was this
safe which the robbers blew open.
The loss is therefore heavier than at
first reported. Instead Of $4,000 it will
reach $4,000, and may go even higher.
A singular feature of the occurrence is
the resignation Of Messenger j. E.
Smith. He is the man who killed two
train robbers near FL Paso in 1888. In
this last affair he withstood the threats
of the assailants for some time, but
when they announced their intention
to blow up the car he gave in. He
was so chagrined by his temporary
loss of nerve that upon reaching San
Antonio he resigned. Since the Ell
Paso affair he has married, has
formed family ties, and to this fact is
ascribed his failure to shoot. The
mailing clerk acted with much cool
ness and secreted all his valuable
packages before the bandits entered.
The country in which the hold-up
took place is an exceeding wild and
broken one and the event is likely to
reoccur at any time.

PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRATS.
The State Committee Adopts Its Platform
at Harrisburg.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Sept. 3.-The
state Democratic convention met here
this morning and at once proceeded
with the work of organization.
H. Willis Blend of Reading was
elected temporary chairman, and on
being conducted to the chair he con-
graduated the Democrats of Penn
sylvania and said that never in the
history of the party had Il campaign
been begun under more suspicious
circumstances. He eulogized Cleve-
land, and this part of his speech
was received with tremendous
applause and cheers. The lessons
taught in the Democratic victories
all over the country since the presi-
Dental election are tributes to the
grandeur of Grover Cleveland, and
the principles he so nObly represents.
He severely condemned the Republi-
can state administration and said
the offices must be wrenched from
the grasp of the spOilsmen of the Re-
publican party. The business Of the
convention was then begun. Con-
gresham VIM. Mutchler was made
chairman Of the convention on reso-
lutions, and a committee to select
delegates at large to the constitu-
tional convention was appointed.
Committees Oh credentials and perma-
nent organization were also appointed
and the convention at II o'clock took
a recess till 7.3O.
The afternoon session of the conven-
ton began at two o'clock. The COM
mittee on permanent organization re-
ported in favor Hon. Geo. w. Skinner
of Fulton county for permanent chair
man and vice-president from each
senatorial district. The temporary
minor officials were retained perma-
nently. Skinner was conducted to
the platform and made a speech, after
which the committee on resolutions
then reported the platform. Each
plank of the platform was cheered as
it was read and it's adoption was
unanimous. The ticket nominated
was: For Auditor, General Robt. f.
Wight, of Allentown; for State Treas
urer, A. L. Tilden, of Erie.

THE IONA LIBRE.
Trouble Likely to Be Caused by the In
creased Import Duties.

creased Import Duties.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Sept. 1.-The
increase by the Mexican government
of the IONA Libre duties excites a
good deal of attention. The Zona
Libre is a strip extending back sixty
miles from the Rio Grande. When
the free IONA was established some
eight years ago goods entered it abso-
lutely free of duty. Later tax of per
cent Of the national output duties was
levied. This tax has now been in
creased and it will be announced in
the forthcoming number of the Diario
Of Iral to 10 per cent, to take effect
November | ; not 10 per cent ad valO-
rem, but 10 per cent of the duty levied
on goods destined for ports of Mexico,
beyond the free zone, so that as regards
Federal taxation merchants inside of
the free belt have still the advantage
over those outside of it to the extent
of 80 per cent. This advantage, which,
other things being equal, would be an
enormous one, is neutralized by the
incidents of crushing local taxation.
American merchants in this and other
cities in the Rio Grande country look
upon this addition to the iona duties
with peculiar satisfaction, for, besides
placing them nearer competing
point with their rivals across the river,
they think they see in it the beginning of
the end of the free zone. The latter
was established, not for fiscal but
political reasons, the idea being to
build up prosperous and therefore
contented cities on the frontier, and
so allay any slumbering revolu
tionary spirit. The political
consideration no longer weighs, and
the commercial result has been a COM
parative failure. The result does not
rest with the Federal government,
but may be found in the uncertain,
occasionally negotiable and onerous
failure of municipal taxations, which
are outside the jurisdiction of the gen.
eral government.

THE SEPARATE COACH LAW,
It's Workings Cause Conflict With the In
terstate Commerce Commission,

terState commerce commission.
SAN ANTONIO, Sept. 3.-Through
the action of the separate coach law
the state of Texas is in trouble
with the federal authorities. Recent
ly a negro boarded the west bound
Southern Pacific train in Louisiana,
purchasing a first-class ticket. He
was seated in the sleeper when the
train crossed the Texas line. Despite
his protests he was elected and forced
to take seat in the negro car. He
appealed to the Interstate Commerce
Commission and so did the road. The
Commission said the negro was right.
The Southern Pacific today issued
an order to all of it's conductors, say
ing: "Colored people making inter-
state trips have a right to accommo-
dations in all sleeping and chair cars
if they can secure first-class tickets OF
the agents, but where colored people
are making local state trips they are
not entitled to sleeping or chair cars
under any consideration, unless the
car is placed in the train and held ex-
clusively for colored passengers.'
The Southern Pacific officials say it is
evident that the interstate commerce
commission proposes to pay no atten-
ton whatever to the state law, and in
order to have as little trouble as posi-
bic they will obey the mandate Of the
fedora authorities.
