Oliver Curtis Perry, the Train Robber, Once
More Secure Behind the Bars.
AUBURN, n. Y, Oct. 23.--Oliver Curtis
Perry has been recaptured and is now safe
within dungeon cel in Auburn prison.
The celebrated train rob5er, who escaped
from his cell yesterday afternoon, enjoyed
his limited freedom for just eight hours,
when ho was again thrust back into confine-
ment more secure than ever before. Perry
was found at 80 o'clock hiding in the
marble shop. The stowawav, who started
in q race for liberty, closely pursued
by several prison guards, ran into the
tailor shop, where, he was met by
one of the watchers, who thrust
a bullseye lantern and revolver IN his
face. Perry al once Withdrew, but in his
precipitate retreat he rushed directly into
the hands of Keeper Smith. The desperado
did not surrender immediately but made an
attempt 10 kill the keeper with large
stone. which he hurled at Smith, striking
him on the leg. Smith retallated by strik-
ing Perry on tho head with heavy cane.
This ended the escFimuage, and the bold
express robbef was carried TO a cell. from
which it is unlikely he.wlll ever escape.
Perry was game to the last, and remarked
rs he was being locked up that he would
make another attempt to escape as soon as
he was able.

IRISHNEN KNOW MN.

One of the Witnesses In tho Ncill Case Said
to Be Notorious English Spy.
PnILApELPnIA, Pa, Oct. 23.-lrishmen OF
Philadelphia now believe that John Patrick
Haynes, who figured cons spicuously in the
trial of Thomas Neill, who was con-
victed in London of poisoning two women of
low repute, is John Patrick Hayes, formerly
of this city, who, it Is said, became an
English spy few years ago and left tins
country last spring.
Hayes evidence last week, lrshmen say,
shows that he was an English spy. that he
hao been in America during 1890. ana that
he was employed by the government in max
ing secret inquiries during the Parnel trial,
all facts which go to prove the identity of
the mai.
Hayes at one time figured conspcuously in
secret Irish organ ions, He was grand
organizer of the E'enian Brotherhood and
chief superintendent of tho distribution of
dynamite in England, and, therefore, he
knew all the workings of tho organization.
Some years ago Irish leaders were assured
that there was spy among them by the fact
that their greatest secrets werc known in
England and all movements nipped in TIL @
bud Hayes was suspected of betraving the
secrets OF the organization and was watche ed
with suspicion by many lri sh leaders and
finally barred out from the organizations S

Stout. whom she had never seen, but who
was coming all the way from Spokane Falls,
Wash, to make her his wife. Tho earliest

q fawn colored frock and nervous expression.
She was accompanied by second young

tache. The quartettc walked into the big

cerTl. Miss Homau was the calmest of the
four. They talked Spasmodically until ! 80
and then strclled solemnlv out to the high
iron fence. They interviewed functionary
ana found that tho train was half an hour
late. They walked back and forth on The
platform until the half hour passed and then
somebody chalked down the awful fact on
the bulletin board that :he train was another
half an hour late. Finally the Chicago linn
tied came around the curve approaching the
station ard steamed into the big building.
Miss Homan sprang up with alacrity, and,
accompanied by her escort, walked down to
the forward SLEEPER.
Then came the very worst part OF the stu
alton, The scanning of each masculine face
and the endeavor to recognize that of her
future husband.
Miss IIomans emotions were written in
her countenauce. A rather handsome man
passed by. lie looked at Miss Homan and
Miss Homau looked back again with an op-
tical interrogation. Then another woman
same up and threw her arms around the
ctraIgcr. a rednosed man with eyeglasses
walked straight toward the waiting pair
Miss Homan's lace said as plain as words
could have done: Horrors, hope 1t am I

Then down ip tho line of hurrying pas
sengers a big, good looking chap was seen
regarding Miss Homan attenti"ely. He was
dressed in long ulster and carried travel
ing bag slung over oae of his broad
shoulders
1t was Colonel i. Kennedy Stout. He
| had seen his fiance before she saw him and
the smile on his face was one of ooundless
satisfaction.
He stepped right out of the crowd and

She took two quick steps forward
and held out her hand. Mr. Stout

There was no difficulty about that. Before

Mrs. Baldwin, hn Ex-Missionary to china.
Pleads for Its People.
New YoRR, Ost. 23.-Mrs. Baldwin, for
twenty years a missionary In China, spoke
In the Asbury Methodist church today before
large congregation. She spoke in high
terms of the Chinese and of the kind treat
ment which she received at their hands dur
ing the score of years she dwelt In the em-
pire She regarded the Chinaman superior
in many respects to other foreigners whom
the United States government accords
free entrance to this land and citizen
ship here Certain individuals, apparently
laboring men and foreigners, took um bragg
at the speakers remnrks and left the church
after creating some disturbance. The
speaker said since she had been delv ering
lectures in this country she had received
threatening letters, and not long ago special
policemen were detailed to guard her house
to circumvent a scheme for burning it down.
This in Christian America, and in Brooklyn,
the city of churches. She hau never been
in such danger in China The Chinese, she
said, were good laborers and could work
longer and In places where others could
not. In the building Of the Union
Pacific railroad and In reclaimng
overflowed land in California they
of the United States. Yet they had been
beaten and bruised and killed, all because
they worked, while tho IRISH and others got
drunk and would not work as well. 1t was
when this rsfereEco to the Irish was made
that the disturbance occurred.
Continuing, Mrs. Baldwin SAID that 1t
made her sick to hear speeches such as were
made during tho Columbian celebration, in
which America was spoken Of Us the land Of
the free. She thought that was not the
case. During tho war on the Chinese at Sc
attic, Cleveland and Bayard were appealed
to seven times to protect the Chinese. "Did
he send the troopss" she queried. NO He
merely sent troops to protect the United
States mails.n
