Witnesses Missing.

OMAHA, Neh, Dec. 3.-The char ees
that the Missouri Pacific and B. & NJ.
railroads had violated the Interstate
commerce law, which were to be
investigated by the federal grand
jury, seem to have fallen short

failure or inability of the officials con-
nected with the United States court
and the commerce commission to pro-
duce the necessary witnesses. and It
has been decided by District Attorney
Baker and Mr.. Kretschmer, special
agent for the commerce commission. to
Indefinitely postpone the hearing of
the evidence.

The Frisco Train Robbers Secured a Large
Sum of Money.
ST. LOUIS, Dec 3.-Facts in regard
to the express robbery make it appear
that the robbers were evidently in
formed as to the value of the contents
of the express safe before the train
left the St Louis station. The through
train to San Francisco, which carries
the bulk of the money to the coast, is
the one which robbers, generally in
formed on the subject. would naturally
select rather than the slow train which
was robbed.
The safe of the express company
was completely rifled and although
yesterday Superintendent Damsell
placed the loss in the neighborhood OF
$40, 600. it is now known that the safe
con tanned far more than that amount
Superintendent Damse1 refuses to con-
firm or deny the story that the total
loss reaches SIS. 900, but admits that it
exceeded the amount he first gave out
as the company's loss
The officials of the road are endeavor-
ing to discover why the train, through
one, left the station thirty minutes late.

ITO BE- Continued
One Way to Steal Diamonds.

1t is natural that articles of great
value are objects of temptation. We
are prepared to understand that the
common thief is constantly scheming
to gain possession of precious stones
aud jewelry. but it is matter of sur
prise to learn. through stories that
come from across the ocean, of the
tricks INDUCED in there by the da-
mond trade-the legitimate, everyday
dealers in precious stones. The pecu-
liarity of this condition of things is that
the sharp practice of dealers does not
involve their reputation or standing,
the thing being looked at as a matter
of shrewdness and rather admired as a
clever piece of business. An anecdote
is related to illustrate this:
A dealer called upon a firm with
whom he was in the habit of transact
ing business and asked to see lot of
diamonds. After examining them for
some time he returned the paper, say
ing he would call again in reference to
buying them. 1t was Mt once noticed
that large stone was missing. A
hasty search was made, but no trace of
the diamond being discovered, the
dealer. without more ado, was accused
of having taken the brilliant.
The stone was not found, and profuse
apologies were offered for the false ac-
cusation. The following day the dealer
appeared again, this time with paper
OF diamonds to sell, but also with an
other object in view, which he took
good care not to disclose. A careful
observer might have noticed that while
the stones were being examined at the
light he ran his fingers along the under
surface of the portion OF the counter
near which he sat and picked oil some
thing that stuck to the wood. 1t was
nothing more nor less than the diamond
which had SO mysteriously disappeared
the day before. He had fastened it to
the counter by means of piece of wax
with which he had provided himself,
and on the occasion of his second visit
secured his booty Weekly.

KENNIBOY'S DREAM.

While twenty Kangaroos, a.jump,
Played bull.frog with the Goose.
The Pollywog climbed up the vine
That grew upon the house;
And sliding down a piece of Irvine
Was one brown little Mouse.

The Lion at the bat,
Just whacked it DER the red brick wall,
And struck the Pussy Cat.

The Kittens in the soup
Began to cry, and mid the din
Small Kenniboy walked up.
