PASSENGERS STORIES.
Experiences as Related by Many
Travellers.

CLEVELAND, o., Sept. 12.-When the
New York II Boston express on the
Lake Shore * Michigan railroad, due
here from the west at a. m, pulled
into the union depot this morning two
hours late, the passengers had wonder
ful stories to tell OF the robbery which
occurred about I o'clock this morn1
ing at KesSler. Ind. Rumors of
the robbery had already reache d
Cleveland, and a big crowd was at
the station awaiting the arrival Of
the belated train. The New York and
Boston express IS the favorite evening
train out of Chicago, and is always
loaded with passengers for Cleveland
and Northern Ohio cities and towns.
When it left Chicago last evening ii
carried about three hundred persons.
While the robbery was III progress
those passengers who had been awak-
ened by the explosions were warnet not
to leave the cars, and rifles
were discharged in the air al frequent
Intervals TO emphasize the warning.
No attempt was made to go through the
train, but il required the combined eff

the timid passengers. Several ladies
became hysterical and screamed loudly
when they heard the exploding firearms.
Asa Mcintyre the rear brakeman
managed to get away from the train,
and ran back along the track without a
lantern 10 place torpedoes on the rails.
He then made his way TO the telegraph
Office at kessler. from which place the
train following the express was notified
of the robbery. and word was sent to
the officials of the road. When the rob-
6ers had secured

they cared 10 take, permission was given
for the train TO proceed. and il pulled
out OF the cut one hour and fifteen min
utes after ii had been stopped. the des-
peradoes standing on the banks of the
cut firing parting volley as it steamed
away toward kendallville.
The charge of dynamite which was
exploded in the express car shattered
the door and made a big hole in the
floor. The car was brought through to
Cleveland and sent from here to
Buffalo in charge of another
messenger. The officials of the United
States Express company in this
city are unable TO give the exact amount
of money stolen. but they say ii is less
than $4,000. The through safe from
which the money was stolen was locked
and seated in Chicago. The local safe.
the officials say, contained more money
than the other, but was not molested.
Every day during the last week large
amounts of money have been carried on
this train, and the officials think the
robbers miscalculated the time for the
raid.

Dunham Said That He Was Rich
When He Was Not.
And Mrs. Durham, Being a Lady of
Spirit, Resented Imposition of
That Sort.
Special to THE MORNING CALI.

CHICAGO March 27.-Mrs. Elizabeth Dun
ham has story to tell of her side of the
divorce case begun on Saturday by r. w.
Durham, eX-president Of the Chicago Board
OF Trade and ex-Congressman. 1t was out
lined to-day by her attorney, who seems to
think the suit is the outgrowth of disputes
over the carrying out of matrimonial con-
tract, the essence of which appears to have
been dollars and cents. There is a direct
charge that Dunham obtained his wife on
false pretenses. 1t is represented that he
said that he was worth 81 .00O, coo, and he
wasn't. This is deemed sufficient to make
any lady of spirit indignant Then
came other troubles. Mrs. Dunham
comes Of prominent family in
Philadelphia, and is we'll off In her
own right. She married Dunham in 1882
after an engagement of several years, and
there was an ante-nuptial agreement by
which Durham agreed after the marriage
10 convey to her his homestead and other
rea estate to the value of 800, 900.
He did not make this deed until the sum-
mer of 1891, on the day his firm failed, and
after the failure she discovered that he had
already put secret trust deed on all his
property in the Continental National Bank
to secure certain Indebtedness.
Last November the bank filed a bill in
court to foreclose the mortgages, and this
foreclosure Mrs. Dunham is resisting on
the ground that the mortgage is Illegal as
having been made in secret by he. hus-
band. Mrs. Dunham asserts that hep hus-
band has frequently been guilty of extreme
cruelty toward her. and enters an emphatic

COSTA RIGA is HAPPY.
A Special Envoy Brings CongratuIa-
tionS to President Cleveland.


WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE Govern
ment of Costa Rica has appointed Senior
Don Manuel NJ. Peralta who is the repre-
sentative of his government at several
European courts, envoy extraordinary and
minister plenipotentiary to the United
States. on special mission of congratula-
tion and good wishes on the part of Costa
Rica to the President of the United States
Mr.. Peralta was formally presented to
President Cleveland at the White House to-
day by Secretary Gresham. In presenting
his credentials he said in part:
"The people and government Of the re-
public of Costa Rca have seen with deepest
joy the accession OF your excellency to the
chief magstracy of the United States of
America. Costa Rica knows through her
own experiences how strong Is your love
for justice, and she will ALWAYS remark
with gratitude that to your wisdom she
owes the final settlement of her boundary
question with Nicaragua. She, then, could
not fail in joining with the American peo-
pie to rejoice and hail your return to the
seat and succession of George Washington.
The President of Costa Rca has honored
me with special mission to come. at this
propitious iuncture, and to congratulate
your excellency, and to represent the re-
public near your government as envoy ex-
traordinary and minister plsnipotentiary."
President Cleveland replied; 1T afforded
me much pleasure to hear the greeting YOU
offered me, in the name OF the government
and people Of Costa Rica, upon my eleya-
tion for second time to the chief magis-
tracy Of the United States. The ties of
friendship that join the two countries are a
pledge of their earnest desire TO draw their
relations still closer in the future. and to
that end my earnest desire and the efforts

PATENTS VOID.
All That the Bell Telephone Company
Will Hold After January.

WASHINGTON, March 27.-The Supreme
Court Of the United States to-day affirmed
the decision of the lower court in the case
of Henry Huber ct al. versus the Nelson
Mining Company, appealed from the Circuit
Court of the Eastern District Of Missouri.
A patent for an Improvement in closets
was issued or April Z. 1874 in Great Britain
to patentees, who assigned to James Boyle
The patent was TO run fourteen years, with
the provision that If the stamp duty of e1O0
was not paid within seven years of the date
of issue the patent was to become void.
Application for patent in the United States
under the assignment was made on Novem-
Der %, 1881. and the patent granted on June,
q, 1882. Boyle then assigned TO Huber.
The 9100 stamp duty was not paid in Great
Britain within the time required, and the
patent became void on April 7, 1881. Under
these facts the Circuit Court held that the
patent granted in the United States was
void because it was granted after the British
patent had ceased to exist, and this decision
was to-day affirmed by the Supreme Court
The important result of this decision is
called to the public attention by the chief
officer Of the Patent Office. In this case the
courts decided that foreign patent having
lapsed by reason of the n-payment of
taxes, an American patent granted there
after for the same invention is void. This
action, it is said at the Patent Office, destroys
Edson's quadruplex telegraph patent and
also his three microphone patents, leaving
the Bell Company, after January next, to
stand wholly on the Berliner patAnt

BANK FAILURES.
General Uneasiness Over the Nash
willie Panic

FAlS
NASHVILLE, Tenn, March 27. - There
was much excitement to-day on the streets
where the banks were located Consider
able uneasiuess had been felt as TO the re.
suit Of Saturdays developments, and when
the banks opened small run was made oil
the First National, but the deposi,ors got
their money SO rapidly that they became
convinced that their fright was an error,
and in nearly every instance redepOsited.
At other large State and national banks
business went on as usual Two of the
smaller banks, both doing business under
State charters, took advantage early of the
privileges given them by law and required
sixty days notice for the withdrawal of de-
posIts. Both these banks had savings
departments, and upon these two banks the
principal runs were made. One Of them,
the Bank of Commerce. doing a small bust
ness. with deposits amounting to about
$4,000. suspended payments and made
general assignment under the State law for
The benefit of all creditors. This break Is
rather bad one.
Another small State Institution, the Me-
chanics' Bank. with savings department,
and having many creditors, opened its
doors as usual, but as soon as IL was evil
dent that run was being made, the direc-
tors decided to take advantage OF the law
requiring sixty days notice from deposi-
tors and suspended payments. This bank
will. in all probability, resume in a few
days, as it has assets in excess Of It's labii-
ties, and only suspended for the benefit of
all its creditors.
The liabilities Of the Bank of Commerce
are $4,000; capital stock, S27, 500. Lewis
T. Baxter, the president, made special
assignment to-day for the benefit of the
bank and his other creditors. No other rs
signments are reported aud none ara antici-
pated.
