THE Press has the best possible organization
to secure news from the most important sour
ces, and with nearly 400 correspondents in Penn
sylyania, New Jersey, and Delaware. the State
and near-at home news Is covered with a RON
tine carefulness and attention to detail not even
attempted by any other paper.
The Press has also the best of correspondents
in all the great cities Of the United States, as
well as financial and railroad experts in Chicago
and the West who keep the paper more than
abreast with events.
The columns of the SUNDAY Press are enrich
ed by contributions from those whose names are
written high in our lists of great authors novel
lists, essayists, as well from men of high rank
In public life. The best authors know that
their best audiences are the readers Of the
DAILY, SUNDAY and WEEKLY Press.
In politics The PRESS knows no other master
than the people and the past year has seem as
has been seen before. the marked fact that 1t is
subservient to no political boss. 1t has no poll
tical ambition to foster. but looks after the In

the issues OF the day in manner both frank and
fearless, letting the facts speak for themselves
and evading no issues but meeting them all on
the basis of fair play to all men at all times Its
pages know no distinctions and the rights of one
class over another are neither recognized nor

Again the desperate reversed his engine

Of the desperate man rang out, and, nc
before, the balls passed through the
window of the cab and whistled harm
leasly over the heads Of those crouching
at the bottom Of 1t, while the switchman
fred his last shot.
The men on the pursuing engine held
a council Of war, and concluded that
further attempt at pursuit and capture
Of the Tobber would be worse than mad
ness. so they backed their engine back to
Lyons.
The fugitive kept on, but soon found
that his steam was giving out. and at
Blue Cut, about two and half miles
east Of Newark, he deserted the engine
and ordered the switchman stationed at
the cut, at the point Of his revolver, to
take the engine back to Lyons. and the
command was quickly obeyed.
The Robber Captured.
Meantime Chief Hayden, Of the Ro-
chester department, had gone 10 the
scene on special engine, accompanied
BY Detectives Furtherer, Kayanaugh
and Lapointe. At Blue Cut there was
no trace of the robber, Of course, hut
they followed asclew that led them to
the house of Farmer Goetzmen. There
they learned that the fleeing robber had,
at the point of revolver, taken horse
from the farmer, saying he was de-
tective In pursuit of robber. The de-
tectives followed in pursuit, and at the
house of Farmer Beal, four miles fur
Their, learned that the fellow had got a
fresh horse by the same tactics.
The trail was followed, and it was
finally discovered that he had left his
horse and took to the woods. Here the
pursuers surrounded him and closed in
ON him. He was found hiding behind
stone wall, and offered no resistance.
He was taken to Lynn and placed in
the Wayne county Jail. He claims to
be William Cross, of Mexico, but the
officers believe he Is Perry, the man
wanted for the Utica express robbery q
few months ago. He is apparently
% years old. He was armed to the
teeth. He had three revolvers, one Of
them a very heavy one, and had on q
belt filled with cartridges.

THE WINTER CONVENTION.
Empire Democrats win Not Pledge
Delegates to Senator EIi1.

ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. 22.-Senator
Hill Is in happy frame Of mind, and
protests that there is nothing new and
that everything is running as smoothly
as could possibly be. It is not believed
that delegates at large have been chosen,
and many names are mentioned, among
which are Worlds Fair Commissioner
John Boyd Thatcher, Of Albany; Ed
ward Murphy, Of Troy; Hugh McLaugh-
lin, Of Brooklyn; ex-Secretary Of State
Cook, of Rochester; ex-C Congressman
Perry Belmont, of New York; Richard
Croker, of New York, and Mayor Body,
of Brooklyn, and of these the most
likely four are Murphy, Croker, Body
and Thatcher.
There is every indication that the con-
vention ceremonies will be hurried
through, and that i've or six hours will
fetish the whole thing. As is usual,
Chairman Edward Murphy, Of the state
committee, called the convention to
order at noon.
A recess of an hour viii be taken, and
each congressional district viii meet
and select its delegates to the national
convention. Upon reassembling the con-
yention will ratify the recess work and
proceed to elect delegates at large. Fol-
lowing that resolutions indorsing the
administration of David b. Hill will be
adopted and committee sent to bring
Mr.. Hill before the convention. The
ex-governor is likely to make brief adj
dress to the convention, and then, with
out binding the delegates to any one
man, the convention will adjourn. The
state committee will be empowered by
resolutions to name candidate for
judge of the court of appeals, so as to
do away with any fall convention in the
state.
Acommittee representing the oppo-
nents of the convention called on the
state committee this morning, but, as
they had expected, received no satisfac-
ton. Among the most prominent MEM
hers of the opposition here are: Charles
s. Fairchild s ex-assistant secretary of the
treasury, E. Ellery Anderson; ex- Mayor
Grace, Edward B. Whitney, Colonel
Robert G.. Munroe and Secretary Law
renee E. Sexton, of the New York COM
mittee of fifty, who arrived Saturday
night. The balance of the New York
and Brooklyn delegation arrived this
morning. There are between 400 and
500 of them.
The opposition will hold meeting at
Union hall this afternoon while the
other convention is in session. Ex-
Mayor Grace is the most enthusiastic
Of the opposition men here. He said to
the United Press representative:
I'VE are not bluffng. Our numbers
may not be large, and we may look
weak beside the convention delegates,
but we are strong in the state. Our pro-
test meeting will be in the nature of a
consultation. You not be surprised if
we appoint state committee and call
primaries throughout the state for the
purpose of electing delegates to a new
state convention that will fairly repre-
sent the people of this state and not a
one man power. Our ground for pro-
testing will be that such machine way
of running politics is decidedly I'M
American. The convention may meet
about May ~

A SHADOW AT COURT.
Fears of Anarchists In London
Prove GrOundIess.

$ LONDON, May 16.-Today's drawing
room may possibly become historical as
the first social function of royalty in
England over which the fear of anarch-
lStic violence cast shadow. The I'M
usual numbered 500 police were on duty,
rumorS having been circulated that the
anarchists who have lately taken refuge
in London in such alarming numbers
would take this occasion to make a de-
monStratiOn of some sort. The Princess
Christian, who represented the queen,
was escorted to Buckingha palace by
a squadron of the life guards. and
nothing occurred to justify the vague
apprehenSionS of trouble that prevailed
in The official mind.
The usual scenes outside the palace
on these occasions were witnessed, a
miscellaneous crowd made up of all
classes, from dudes TO toughs, gathering
and pressing upon the carriages OF the
debutanteS. Some of the latter were eX-
posed to the gaze of the curious for
three hours before their turn for pre-
sentation came. There was plenty of
grumbling at the queens absence.
though the princess was probably about
as acceptable substitute as could have
been selected. The diplomats were in
mourning. Tile princess wore a gown
of black silk trimmed with black gauZe
de chambPry, and there was an abund-
ance of let.

clubs were represented. as follows: o.

Indianapolis; J. w. Speas, Kansas City;
Ralph Stout. Omaha; c. IL. Morton,
Minneapolis; J. c. Iverson, Milwaukee,

President Williams reported ST. Paul
out of the league, fact which hardly
explains the necessity of the meeting.
The St. Paul club has been run entirely
by the league, the latter being promised
that a company would be formed TO take
the club of Its hands. The company,
however. had failed to materialize, and
circumstances are such as to make the
dropping of St. Paul a necessity, and
this was decided upon today.
The cities which applied for the va

distress is prevailing in the flooded dis
tricts OF East St. Louis. The homeless
