KANSAS Cry, Aug. 2l.--The Journals
Wichita special says; !; The St. Louis and
San Francisco passenger train, which
left here ~ 10 so last night, was held
up, and the Wells-Fargo express car
robbed by four masked men, near Au-
gusta. Butler county, about midnight.
Before 8 o'cIock this morning, the out
laws were captured, with part of their
booty. As the train slowed up at a
crossing, q mile east of Augusta, two
masked men mounted the locomotive,
and ordered the engineer and fireman
TO stop the train. This was sfdone, and
the two other members Of the gang un-
coupled the express car. The engineer
was then compelled to pull ont a mile dis
tant with the express car. The highway
men demanded admittance and COM
menced shooting through the sides.
The express messenger and bag2agemen
soon gave in. Express Messenger Sifft
was forced to open the safe, and the
robbers got between fifteen and twenty
packages of money. The outlaws did
not attempt to rob the passengers, and
the latter knew nothing Of the robbery
till it was over. The amount of money
secured did not exceed $4,000, but cam
not be definitely ascertained. The
robbery was committed by four farmers
living in the vicinity of Douglas, Butler
county, and it seems was anticipated,
for as soon as the sheriff heard OF the
affair he pounced upon the outlaws.

GERMAN
IMPERIAL APPOINTMENTS

The news reaches us by way of Lon
don that Messrs. Steinway & Sons have
been honored with the appointment of
piano manufacturers to their imperial
majesties, the emperor and empress of
Germany-the first bestowed upon an
American manufacturer. This cannot
fail to be hailed with considerable satis-
faction in musical circles throughout
Germany, when we consider the impetus
given the higher forms of German art
the symphonic productions of the old
and modern masters of orchestral writ
ing--through the ipstrumentalits of
Steinway & Sons, whose efforts in Great
ing, fostering and expanding the culti-
walton of music among the American
masses, and making known through yir-
tuosi in the concert room the rich stores
OF piano-forte literature is known to
musicians the world over.
This latest honor bestowed upon the
American house speaks eloquently for
the international prestige won by the
Steinway piano in the most select and
cultivated European circles. rsFs

ously, if not fatally, wounded late this
evening by George Schmitt, rival

fused to give the name of his assailant,
saying he. did not want the man ar
rested Passing up the street he en-
codntered Ells, who is supposed 70 have
been his assailant, and shot him in the
bowels. Schmitt was lodged in jail. and
Ellis taken home. The affair is the OUT
growth of the trouble between the union
and non-u union blacksmiths of this city.
Some time ago the chop of Schmitt was
blown up by dynamite, and he had Ellis
and another man arrested for the crime,
but the evidence was too slight to war
rant their detention, and they were dis
charged.

Yet Over.

COAL GREEK, Tenn, Aug. 2I.--This
has been day Of quiet and expectancy; !;
nothing happened of startling signi6-
cance. and but for the chasing of alleged
clues and occasional arrests by scouting

miners leaders and in favor Of lynching
General Anderson day before yesterday,

say is deputy United States marshal.

this afternoon that the trouble was not
yet over; but, on the contrary, the maN
jority, OF the resident citizens say there
will be no further trouble until the
troops are withdrawn. Searching
parties are securing the mountain sides
for o radius of Elk or eight miles, and
have brought in several prisoners. An
important arrest was made in the person

strategy, secured the notorious agitator
Bud Lindsay, who has been prisoner
here for the past few days, from tho
guards, and conducted him up the valI
ley toward Briceville, few miles south
of this place, for the purpose of lynch
ing him. They were fully determined,
and would undoubtedly have carried out
their purpose but for the pleadings of
Lindsay. and his solemn promise to go,
with the troops and point out every man
in the mountains who was implicated in
the late miners troubles. His life was
spared on this condition. He was
brought back to Coal Greek, and win be
