The Irish Land RilI

LONDON, June 26.-In the house OF
lords to-day Lord Derby supported the
Irish land purchase bill as laudable
effort to solve part of the land prob
lem. Lord Salisbury held that the bill
was generally satisfactory. The gov

commons had acted generously in vot-
ing large sum to assist purchasers.
The prediction that the Irish would re-
pudlate the advances made had not been
justified. The bill passed a serond
reading without a division.

Sheriff Billings farm Is three and
half miles north of the city, where he
keeps some valuable horses. George
Bates, aged seventeen, had charge of
the place and was there alone Thursday
night. Bates was wakeful that night.
and at o'clock in the morning stepped
outside. He heard the trampling of
horses hoofs on the barn floor. Think
ing one of the animals was loose, he ran
around to the barn door at the other
side to prevent the horse getting into
the yard. As he turned the corner, with
a lantern in one hand, he ran plump
into the midst of three men who were
at the barn door leading out four horses,
which they had bridled. They had seen
him coming and as he turned the corner
three shots were fired at him almost
simultaneously. One went through his
left hand and another through his hat.

but failed. Bates is a plucky fellow.
and instead of running he pulled a re-
volver which he happened to have In
his pocket and returned the fire. By
this time the men had dropped the bri-
dies of the horses and started off on a
run. Bates emptied his revolver after
them, but does not know whether he hit
anybody or not. The alarm was soon
given in this city, and large posse of
men has been securing the neighbor-
hood of the attempted robbery all day,
but so far has not captured the robbers.
though several clues have been found
which make them think they are ON the
right track. Bates thinks he would

pearance. He describes them as two
tall men and one short man. They wore
no masks, and it is not thought they be-

be taken without fierce fight, in which
it is hoped the right men will get hurt.
