The Quarantine Imposed by the Local
Authorities at OadiE Raised by the
Government.
MADRID, Oct. 2.--As soon as the fact
became known that tho local authorities
ut Cadiz had ordered a three days'ouaranS
tine of the Russian flagship that arrived
there Saturday, to await the rest Of the
feet that is to visit Toulon, the govern
ment issued instructions that the quar-
antine be at once raised. The flagship
was from Copenhagen, where it had
been for some days, owing TO the pres
ence in Denmark Of the Gar, who is
visiting the King, tho father Of the
Czarina, and as no contagious sickness
is known to be prevailing there the gov
eminent could see no reason why the
ship should be quarantined.
In addition to. ordering that the flag
ship be given free practice, the govern
ment instructions are that none of the
Russian warships' be subject to the usual
port regulations regarding sickness, un.
less their is sickness of contagious
nature aboard Of them. As none of the
vessels arc known to be from cholera
infected ports, the government holds
that to quarantine them would be al
excess OF precaution.
The government has also ordered thai
the visit Of the Russian officers anC
crews shall be made as pleasant as
possible to them, and the local authori.
ties at Cadiz have been instructed to pre-
pare fetes for the entertainment Of thu
visitors,

KANSAS Cry, NO., Sept. 2s.-The Wells
Fargo Express Company, operating on
the Sante lie, st. Louis & San Francisco,
and Kansas City. Pittsburg & Gulf rail-
ways, and the Adams Express Company,
operating on the Burlington u Memphis
railway, are taking unusual precautions
since the epidemic of train robberies for
the safety of cash entrusted to them for
shipment by providing burglar proof safes
for all their express cars.
These safes are q new pattern and are
warranted to be absolutely dynamite proof.
The Wells-Fargo Company began supply
ing cars on the main lines with these safes
months ago, and during the last 60 days
have put Is safes in express cars running
out Of Kansas City, and there are II more
safes here now ready for use.
A few months ago the Wells-Fargo Com.
pany provided an armed guard for every
one of the express cars while passing
through the Indian Territory. The Adams
Company has more recently begun to pro
vide the dynamite proof safes. None Of
the railways operating in Kansas City
however, haye yet begun to place armed
guards in its cars, as the Michigan Contra
and Pennsylvania companies have.
Trainmen running out of Kansas City
however, are arming themselves volun
tarily, and the capture of the train robber,
az st. Joseph, Sunday night, has giver
courage to trainmen, who propose to show
| fight hereafter when train robbers ar,
encountered.

They Visited the Bank, Held Up the
Cashier and Got Away with the Money.
GRAND Forks, N. D., Sept 28.-The
Bank of Halstead, small town on the
Minnesota side, about 40 miles south OF
this city, was raided yesterday and robbed
of $3.50. The robbers entered the town
about o'clock p. m, and after getting a
livery team in which to escape, drove to
the bank, where the cashier, A. A. Eckern,
was alone.
While one of the robbers engaged in
conversation with the cashier, another
suddenly covered him with two revolvers.
The third man locked the door, pulled
down the blinds, and then the trio helped
themselves to all the money they could
find.
Some $1,000 in bill was slowed away
where the robbers did not find it. The
money they secured was mostly in specie
Putting the money in their pockets, the
robbers left the building, keeping Cashier
Eckern covered with revolvers until they
were outside. They then locked the door
from the outside and drove hurriedly away
towards the river.
The cashier soon attracted the attention
of people passing and posse was organ.
lied and started in pursuit. The robbers

A HuaR GORInLh.

He Came From tho Upper Congo, and Can
Reach to a Height OF Nine Feet.
NEW York, Oct. 2.-What is said to
be the first live gorilla ever brought into
the United States is now in the posses
sion of Donald Burns of Roosevelt street.
He is over six feet in height, and with
appraised arm can reach height of more
than nine feet. His skin is of a dirty
brown, covered with mass of short
gray hair. He is almost human in his
ways and sometimes has all the cum
ming Of mailman.
Some idea of his strength can be
gained when it is said that he wrenched
the three-inch iron bar from his cage on
the way TO this country, and twisted it
into shapeless tangle. 1t took the
united efforss of four men to hold him
in subsection until new bar was in
serted in the cage. The gorilla was cap
tured in the Congo country, near Lake
Tanganyika, where he was surrounded
by 40 Africans, and was secured by
throwing strong nets over him and bind
ing his limbs after he had entangled
himself so that he was helpless.

past two weeks for the murder of his wife
couple Of years ago by poison, was yes
terday afternoon found guilty as charged
by the jury. Sentence was deferred. Mrs.

Fogelsongs last illness was attended with

dermic injections OF morphine.
A few weeks after burial, the body was
exhumed, and while the physicians found
