Used When All Passengers Had to Stand
Up-The Press Pass DimcuIty Settled.
CHICAGO, July 16.-Some lively work is
IN progress at jackson park this week.
Seven thousand men are employed inside
the big high pine fence every day. The
landscape department has 235 men and
fifty teams employed spreading black
soil for flower beds, grading and seeding
the wooded island, getting sod from the
sites of the state buildings and laying it
elsewhere and grading permanent roads
Above 4, 900 square yards of gravel have
been spread on roads and rolled. Water
and sewer pipe laying is employing 375
men, and they have about completed the
work of putting in pipes and fire stops in
the buildings, and are hurrying the work
of laying water and sewer pipe.
Putting on the Exterior Covering.
Balustrades around the terraced walls
of the interior waterways are beginning to
appear everywhere. The iron ratings are
supported by immense short columns of
staff in imitation of stone. The work of
making and placing exterior covering
employe above eleven hundred men,
the force being equally divided between
the casting in the shops and the placing
of staff on the buildings. Two-thirds of
the floats for the procession of the CEN
turtles" are done. The government build
ing is well along toward completion; its
dome is sheathed in and the ornamental
staff work is being placed around the main
entrance.
The States Hard at Work.
OF the state buildings the rough car
pentry work is done and the roof finished
for Massachusetts, Indiana. Ohio, Wiscon-
sin, West Virginia, Rhode Island, Con-
necticut and Montana. These buildings
are fairly ready for interior plastering
and trim work. Those buildings for
which the foundations for the first floor
are laid are Colorado, Nebraska, Mary
land, Delaware. Maine, New York, Cali
fornia, New Hampshire and Michigan.
Superintendent Jordan, who has been
placed in charge of the construction of
state buildings, says that the work on all
of them is well done and that a superior
quality of material is being used in their
construction. The brick walls for Great
Britan's building are being laid and the
site for Ceylon's building is graded.

Witnesses Refused to Answer.

CHICAGO, July 16-The inter state COM

members here for the past few days trying
to find out something about discrimina.
tions made by certain railways. A num-
Der of witnesses have been examined all
of whom refused to reply to questions that
struck at the meat of the matter. 1t was
finally determined to petition Judge
Gresham to rule that the witnesses must
answer. The attorneys for the witnesses
said to Judge Gresham that the case was
too important to be tried without prepara-
ton and the judge agreed, and the cases
were postponed to Sept. 8. The officials
left today for Omaha.

DALTON'S BRAVOS.
Too Much for the "Picked"
Railway Guards.
OFFICIALS VERY MUCH AsToNIsHED

Cannot Explain How Seven Toughs Got
Away from Eight Detectives Selected
Especially for Their Workout They
Did-The Company Warned and Pre-
pared for the Robbery but Something
was Lacking-The Goodness of the
Desperadoes at the Station.
SEDALIA, Mo-, July 16.-The hold-up OF
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas north
bound passenger train No. at Adair, /.
T., an account of which was printed in
these dispatches, was the most remarka-
BILE crime of the kind in the history of
that famed train-robbing country. For a
month past the officials of the Pacific Ex-
press company had been anticipating an
attack from the remnant of the notorious
Dalton gang, but at exactly at what point
it would be made was all surmise. In an
ticipation, however, armed guards have
accompanied the messengers on each trip,
both north and south. Wednesday the
officials learned definitely that train No
2 would be attacked at Adair and prepara-
tions We're made to give the outlaws a
warm reception.
Put Eight Armed Men on Board.
Detective John J. Kinney, chief of the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas secret SER
vice, accompanied.by eight picked men, was
the force selected to thwart the robbers.
Kinney and his assistants took passage in
the smoking car on train No. 9 Wednes-
day afternoon for Adair, where the train
was due at 9:45 p. m. Three-quarters of
an hour prior to that hour seven strange
men, masked, drove into Adair in a spring
wagon. They halted in front of the sta
ton and alighted. An instant later all
he I'm wit he ai1 of
Winchesters pointed in the face of the sta
ton agent, ransacked the Office of the sta
ton of all its money and valuables. Hav-
ing accomplished this the robbers sat
down at the station and coolly awaited
the arrival of train No 3
Did Some Mighty Poor Shooting.
The moment the train stopped ut Adair
the robbers commenced firing their Win
chesters. and kept the firing up until they
had accomplished their aim. Kinney and
his men opened fire the robbers. and
for few minutes bullets were flying
thick and fast, as many as fifty shots be-
ing fired. In the melee Kinney received
flesh wound on the right shoulder La Flore
had one arm slightly burned, and man
named Ward suffered slight flesh wound.
Two doctors, residents of Adair, were also
quite badly injured, one having his right
leg so badly shattered that it had to be
amputated.
Panic Among the Passengers.
The robbery created intense excitement
among the passengers, and for a short
time the terrified Inen and women were
almost beside themselves with fright. The
belated train arrived here at 10 o'clock in
the morning, and the numerous bullet
holes in the express car told of the terrible
struggle that had taken place. Express
Messenger Williams reported at once to
the local agent, but refuses to make
statement for the press. The local agent
denies that the robbers got SO much
money, but others positively assert that
the estimate of between $4,000 to 5000
is correct.
The officials are very much astonished.
They cannot understand how the affair
turned out as it did

HISTORICAL RAILWAY CHECK
Used the First English Railway-A
NaIunb BILE relic.

Valuable Relic.
Among various trophies secured by Chief
Smith, of the transportation department,
during his recent visit to Europe is small
brass pocket piece resembling an ordinary
baggage check. 1t is worth more than its
weight in gold. 1t is of octagon shape, and
on the side is stamped the inscription al.
& S.'Railway. Bagworth: No, 90" On
the opposite side the number is repeated.
This relic represents the form of railway
tickets in use in 1882 for "open carriage
passengers" on the Leicester and Swan
nington railway. The distance covered by
the main line was n trifie over sixteen
miles, and the passenger fares charged
were l Z pence per mile.
No Seats for Passengers
There was one class only; the passengers
stood up in an open carriage, generally
known as a tub, which was nothing better
than high-sided goods wagon. having no
tops, no seats and spring buffers.
These brass tickets were. issued to the vari-
Gus stations, the guard of the train carry
ing a leather bag, something in the style
of a collecting box, having eight separate
divisions one for each station. At the end
of each passengers journey his ticket was
taken up and PLACED, in the bag by the
guard, to be returned, recorded in the
books and used again.
The Baker-Hand Difficulty.
The Baker-Hand difficulty over the issue
of passes has been settled. President
Baker Yesterday sent a letter to the direct
ors explaining his mistake regarding
newspaper passes issued by Major Hand
and the latter sent another letter, in
which he explained that the mean things
he said about Mr.. Baker were uttered in q
moment of great indignation, and proba-
bly, were not exactly justified. The in
yestigation committee did not present its
report in view of the mutual apologies
offered by the two officials. Director
General Davis will hereafter grant passes
to proper applicants. His department
chiefs can call on him for such tickets as
they need.

MUSIC is NOT ON TAP.

Merry Request Made by Women Visitors
to the New York Stock Exchange.
NEW YORK, July 16.-Richard II. Hal
stead, of the New York Stock exchange,
has reason to regret his wide and growing
fame as a popular entertainer. When the
Christian endeavor delegates crowded the
galleries of the exchange the other day
the brokers serenaded them for half an
hour, and the unusual character of the
demonstration led to its getting a good
deal of publicity. Mr.. Halstead was the
leader of the chanting brokers and the
newspape mentioned that fact.
Wanted Halstesd to Sing for Them.
There was a large number of visitors in
the galleries yesterdaymost of themwomen,
and all evidently delegates to the recent
convention. Two of the women tossed
twisted bits of paper to the floor below
until the attention of some of the MEM
was picked up and examined. 1t proved
to be note which read: "Please have
Mr.. Halstead get the Glee club and sing
to u.s."
Not Exactly Roof Garden.
Mr.. Halstead could not comply with the
modest request, but it was no easy matter
to convince the delegates of that fact.
Even when three or four of his fellow
mem bers hoisted him their shoulders
so that the visitors could get good look
at him the galleries were not appeased,
and demanded that he be made to sing to
them. 1t finally ended in Mr. Halstead
making q visit to the gallery and explain
ing in honeyed words that the Stock ex-
change was not roof garden where music
was to be had every day.
