bic talk and not lew suggestions that
the man in the pool-boX was doing his
utmost to influence the event in the field.
The heat that caused trouble was that be-

dog was by long odds the tavOrite in the
pools, and those who Lad confidence in

Belle was announced the winner, which
she clearly was III the opinion of those
who had a good view of the field. Still
she was not allowed the victory, the pool
sellers and hackers OF Quicksilver being
charged with the fact, and another race
was ordered. Again the dogs tried con
ciusions on the field, and again Sacra-
nento Belle won. Still there was dis
agreement, ana it was not until Sacra-

was finally given the race.

WASHINGTON, June 12.-In the Senate
during the coming week some progress
may be made on the general appropria-
ton bills, two OF which are the legislative
and agricultural. They were received
from the House last Thursday and re-
ferred to the Committee on Appropria-
tions. Several conference reports will
probably be presented to the Senate and
agreed to.
The silver bill is not to be taken up
till after things politically shall have got
back into their normal condition Nor
gan is ready to take the floor upon the
silver question whenever he sees an op-
portunity of extracting views from GER
tain Senators. PETER has given notice of
his intention to address the Senate to-
morrow on his bill to increase the cur
rency and provide for its circulation, to
raduce rates of interest and establish a
bureau of loans.
Call proposes next Wednesday to nav
his respects to certain railroad companies
which show, as he thinks, too much
interest In the question of who shall be
elected to the Senate.
In the House there is promise of busy
week, with the tariff again the leading

but the probabilities are that the tin plate
bill will be the first on the programme.
The silver lead ore bill and the bill to
limit the values of clothing and personal
effects that may be brought into the
United States by tourists is also to receive
speedy consideration.
A strong disposition is apparent to
hasten the day of the final adjournment.
All the regular annual appropriation bills
have been passed originally by the House,
except the Notifications and general de-
ticiency bills. The last named will be
reported to the House early this week.
and both will receive speedy treatment.
Some time will also be given to con-
sideration of the conference reports, and
1t is expected the river and harbor, mill
tary academy and possibly the army ap-
preparation bills will be sent to the Presi-
dent for approval during the week.
The House managers are extremely de-
sirous to advance the appropriation bills
as far as possible before the exodus of
Democratic members to the Chicago Con-
vention, and will use every effort to ac-
complish their purpose.

SAN FRANCIsco, June l2.-The annals
Of crime on this coast contain no more
startling record of robbery than that
furnished on the Oakland side Of the bay
yesterday. Two men, one of them par
TALLY disguised, held up'' a cashier and
his companion in a crowded railway car
just before noon, backed out of the train
with $4,000 in gold and silver COIN and
made good their escape in buggy which
they had provided for the occasion. The
victims of the robbery were John Gibson,
the Secretary and Cashier Of the Judson
Iron Works, whose office is at Il Fremont
street, in this city, and Harry Mortenson,
clerk in the same office. Gibson had
drawn the money from the Bank OF Brit
ish North America, and he and Morten-
son were taking it over to pay off the $50
employees Of the Judson Company at their
works at Emery's, the next station be-
yond that where the robbery took place.
The robbery had been planned with con-
summate skill and was executed with
daring that has seldom, if ever, been
equaled in the history of train-robblng in
this country. The desperadoes boldly
faced whole trainload or people and got
away without more than a scratch and
leaving behind no clew.
The police think they have a clue to
the Berkeley robbers, and have offered
reward Of 81 600 for the capture of j. q.
Smith and Joe Dunn, formerly employees
of the Judson Con- pany, but who left
some time ago of their own accord. The
police refuse to give their reasons for sus-
pecting these men. The robbers have
been traced to the foothills of Mount
Diablo, fifteen miles from Oakland.
where It thought they buried the money.
One remained there TO guard the treasure,
while the other returned to Oakland with
the horse and buggy. Another man sus-
pected is a discharged employe named
Glrard, who is also known as Frank
Queen, an eX-criminal. He is supposed
