SANTA FE TRAIN ROBBERY.
The Dalton Gang Believed to be Inter-
eSted in the Work

The Dalton Gang Believed to be Inter-
eSted in the Work.
GUTHRIE %. t., June "Details OF
the robbery last night of Wells, Fargo d
Co.'s express car on the Santa Fe train
make the story unexampled in outlawry
on the part OF the bandits and brave re-
sistance on the part of the custodians OF
the company's property. The robbers
were at work nearly an hour attempting
to intimidate the messengers into sub
mission, and during the battle between
the messengers and bandits fully 200
shots were fired and not man wounded.
The robbery was doubtless committed
by the notorious Dalton gang, for whom
large rewards are still standing.
Two masked men jumped into the en-
gine cab from the tender and covering the
engineer and fireman commanded them
to run the train to the stock Yards and
stop there at given signal. For the en-
glneer and fireman to have resisted
would have meant death. When the
train stopped the two robbers were
Joined by five masked companions. The
leader commanded the engineer and fire
man to walk back to the express-car and
commanded the fireman to break open
the door.
e. c. Whittlesey, the messenger, and J.
a. R1ehl, the guard, anticipating what
was going on, blew out the lights and re-
fused to allow anyone to enter. The
bandits opened fire upon the car from all
sides, but the two men within responded
promptly, aiming all shots at the doors.
The highwaymen shot into the car from
all quarters. The firing, however. took
10 effect, for the messengers stood their
ground.
In the meantime the robbers chopped a
hole in the door large enough to admit a
body, and the fireman was told to crawl
into the car. This placed him between
the two fires, and Engineer Mack, seeing
1t meant death to his companion, eX-
planned the situation to the messengers,
and told them TO cease firing.
The robbers then entered the express
car, covered the inmates with guns. and
with sledge and chisel broke open
the two safes and robbed them of eyery-
thing of value.
The robbers We're described by the pas
sengers as being well dressed and of gen
tlemanly bearing. The leader apologized
to the engineer for rough remark made
by one OF his men.
The amount secured by the robbers is
unknown, as the express company made
no statement.
WICHITA, June 2.-The loss by the rob
berry OF the Santa F'e train last night on
the Indian Territory border was less
than $1,000. The amount stated in the
first dispatch was $4,000

MARE ISLAND NOTES.

Applications for Positions Far Exceed
the Number Needed.
VALLEJO, June 2.-The Paymaster-
General has ordered a Board of Survey
to appraiSe and sell all obsolete stores
on Mare Island. Commander Glass is
Chairman. The preliminary work is
going on now.
Hereafter no laborers will be registered
at the navy-yard except such as have a
discharge issued in the time of war The
number on the rolls now far exceeds the
number that may possibly be required for
years to come.
There are being shipped by Alden &
Co.'S schooner Shasta about 250 tons of
stores for the Behring Sea fleet. The
freight is consigned to Ounalaska, where
it will be distributed to the various YES
sells. This is the largest shipment ever
made from the navy-yard, amounting to
over twenty-five hundred packages.
Ashford, the insurgent now under ar
rest in Honolulu, was resident of VAL
lejo in 1870, where he opened law office
with J. +. Wendell, who died recently in
San Francisco. Ashford was natural
kicker against all existing institutions.
He was a great politician and was the
cause of more than one political row in
the old red-hot times.

CASE DISMISSED.
insufficient Evidence to Hold Brunel
on the Second CHARGE

insufficient Evidence to Hold Bruner
on the Second Charge.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 1.-The second
charge against Bruner was dismissed by
Judge Cof1ey this morning. The charge
was that Bruner offered to accept money
to influence other legislators.
MacSherry, special counsel for the pro-
secution, said he did not want to put the
county to any unnecessary expense in the
matter.
But we shall not make any motion to
dismiss," responded Reddy, Burners
counsel. 1--WE understand there is some
thing held in reserve by the prosecution
in this matter, and as we are going to go
TO trial on the other charge we prefer not
to leavy any masked batteries behind US.
We court the very fullest investigation
now as always"
On MacSherry stating that the motion
was made in good iaith, Reddy subse-
quently changed his mind, and agreed to
a dismissal OF the second charge. The
matter then went over.

NEW YORK, June 2.-The HeraId's
Paris special says: Neither France nor
Germany has any desire or intention of
provoking war, but we can never be
sure. Some incident, even absurdly in
significant in its essence, may precipitate
struggle" This was the reply which
Nj. Jules Simon gave to the question:
us war likely to result from the fetes
that are to be held at Nancy next week ?''
In answer to another question Simon
said: "If there is war between France
and Germany, it is my conviction that
France will be the victor in the fight"
There are in or out of France few men
who can read the signs Of the times more
shrewdly than this eminent statesman,
or who are more dispassionate and un-
biased in their judgments.

CHICAGO, June 2.-Advices to the AS
soclated Press give further details of the
loss of life and destruction of property
by the storms and cyclones in the South
west. Lott, Tex, reports the cyclone
near Durango caused the greatest havoc,
sweeping everything before it from the
face Of the earth. Over space of a
quarter of a mile wide and several miles
long houses were utterly demolished.
Many people escaped injury by entering
cyclone cellars, but five or six are known
to have been killed and number in
jured, some fatally.
The effects of the transforms which
have prevailed since Monday throughout
Missouri, Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma
and Indian Territory, and which con-
tlnue in many places, are becoming evil
dent in the rising rivers. All the streams
in Indian Territory are rising rapidly,
and the water promises TO exceed the
high stage recently recorded. Enormous
damage has already been done and much
greater is in prospect.
The damage by rain and wind in the
nelghborhOod of Waco, Tex, is alone es-
timated at half million.
In Logan County, 0. t., hailstones as
large as hens eggs fell, breaking win
doWs, destroying vegetables and killing
livestock. The little town of Carney was
almost completely wiped out. The houses
were all small frames. At Britton the
SchOOlhouse and the residence of Henry
Butt were both completely wrecked. A
number of tarmhouses near by were also
damaged. At Orlando three houses were
blown over and one man was injured,
and in Payne County many farms were
swept clean of buildings.
