ANOTHER TRAIN ROBBERY.

 Kentucky this Morning.

Five Masked Men Hold Up Train in
 Kentucky this Morning.
 CAIRO, ILLS, Nov. 11.--Illinois Central train No. P, due here at 1:3O this morning, was stopped at Mayfeld Bridge, Ky, about eight miles south of Cairo, by five masked men, supposed to have boarded the train at Bardwell As soon as the train stopped ths robbers gained entrance to the expre {. car and secured $32 in cash and d valuable package, the contents of which is not known. The robbers then left the train and mads for the woods. The train was in charge of Conductor Charles Sheearin and K. B. McNeal, messenger, both of whom fired several shots at the rob- bers, but without effect No clue yet.
 The men got on at Bardwell and made the raid when the train stopped for water. The package is said to contain $l400 taken from the ex press messenger, and the passengers were also robbed. The raid was so quickly done there was little re- sistanee. The robbers got away. Bloodhounds are asked for and are now en route and should be on the ground by noon

WORLDS FAIR MEDALS.
EXHIBITORS ARE IMPATIENT AT THE
 DELAY IN GIVING THEM OUT.
CONTRACT NOT AWARDED.
Mir. T. Boyd Thatcher or the Designer to
 Blame Says the Dispatches.

WASHINGTON. D. C., Nov. 13.- There is much complaint among exhibitors over the great delay in awarding Worlds Fair medals to successful competitors. Congress- men have received numerous letters on the subject, but inquiry at the treasury department does not reveal any indication that medals will be ready for distribution for several months. As many exhibitors ex- pect to make the most of medals in an advertising way, some of them desiring to incorporate the design in new trade marks to be adopted, they complain that the great delay will rob them of much of the com mercial advantages which they ex- pected to reap in return for the heavy expense involved in making the Worlds Fair exhibits. The de- sign prepared by St. Gavens for off cial medals is now here, but the contract for manufacturing the med als has not been awarded, and 1t is still even uncertain whether the work may not be done by the United States mint. The plan of the treasury officials, which is very de- tailed and contemplates medals of elegant workmanship, will require four or five months, as it would necessitate stamping some of the medals four or five hun dred times. But cheap CT process of manufacture has been suggested, which will make it possible to turn out 35,000 medals in few weeks. This does not meet with much favor, however, and unless indignant exhibitors bring the matter to the attention of con gress 1t is not likely that medals will be ready before next summer.
 The treasury department suggests the delay is attributable to Mr. J. Boyd Thatcher or the designer who should have furnished the design months ago in order that the manu- fracture might have been begun at much earlier date.

LIBERAL CONSTRUCTION.
Two Important Decisions by the Assistant

Two Important Decisions by the Assistant
 Land Commissioner.
 WASHINGTON, Q. O., Nov. h. Assistant Commissioner Bowers of the general land office, has rendered two decisions construing the timber culture repeal law of March 3, 1891. That the law provided that persons who made timber culture and who planted ahd cultivated trees for a period of four years be allowed to prove upon the land by payment of $1 ,25 per acre. Mr. Bowers holds if the entry man has cultivated for any four years and and then ceased to do any more he is entitled to the land if no contest has been commenced against him prior to the time when he made ap- plication to the court under the act. He holds this act should be con- strued literally. Therefore any period of four years should be re- garded as compliance, providing there is no adverse claimant.

Upon entering the house the mother was mortified at finding the oldest burned to un- consciousness Medical assistance was immediately procured, and the child's father, who was at work, was notified. Death came in about three hours. Some matches were found lying upon the floor, and it is gen erally conceded that her clothing became ignited while playing with matches.

EPIDEMIC oF INFLUENZA.

It Prevails in Ohio 10 an Alarming Extent.
 CLEVELAND, O., Nov. l3.-An epidemic of influenza that can count at least as many victims as Ia grippe in its palmies5 days, prevails in this city. But if is not nearly so severe as was the Russian importation. Persons of robust health succeed resisting the disease without diff culty and only complain of disagree able effects. In victims who have poor health, however, influenza leads to serious complications of numer- ous cases. Physicians report large numbers of persons suffering more or less from the disease.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Nov. 10.-- Cotton returns in the department of agriculture for the month of No vember do not indicate high rate yield, but point rather to dimin- ished harvest as compared with that of 1892.
 The averages are 148.S pounds per acre distributed by the states as follows: Virginia, l52; North Carolina, l74; South Carolina, 142 :; Georgia, l36; Florida, 82; Alabama, 148; Mississippi, 143; Louisiana, 175; Texas. 15l; Arkansas, 174 1; Tennessee, 138. The severe frost has not yet been general and it is possible the reported expectations may be exceeded.

 LONDON, Nov. 13.-The corrre- spondent of The Times at Bangkok says the French, in trying to force the Carvee system of road making in the newly acquired territory on the left bank of the Mekong river, shot down Laas, a tribe man, who refused to work at Fung Chien. This had the effect of causing great irritation among the inhabitants. The report is confirmed that the en- tire hill country of Tonkin is ia full revolt. The French forces there are inpotent and confined to their posts. The native soldiery are de- moralized and rebellious, and the railway and road works had to be abandoned.

EARLY ADJOURNMENT.
THE REGULAR SESSION WILL PR0BA-
 BLY ADJOURN BY JUNE 30.
COMMITTEE WORK.
The Committees Are Working Very Hard and VIII Present Their Bitir
 on Opening Day.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 11.- There are many hopeful indica tions that the coming session may not last as far into next summer as has been feared by those who dread the ardor of the Washington sum- mer climate. There Is quite a rivalry between the appropriations and ways and means committees as to which will get first consideration for their measures in the house, and while party policy may die tate the preference to the ways and means committee, and give prac tically the entire months of Decem- Der and January to the consideration of the tariff bill, the appropriations committee will certainly have it's bill in the house ready for consideration at date much earlier than has been the cus- tom in the past.
 Mir. Sayers, of Texas, the new chairman of the committee on ap- propriations, has remained in the city ever since adjournment, and is to be found daily in the committee room, pouring over estimates and collecting data upon which to base forthcoming appro- priation bills. He is determined the opening of the regular session in December shall find the committee ready to present it's most important appropriation bills to the house, and call has been issued to the mem, bers of the sub committee on pen sions, Notifications and sundry civil bills to meet in this city on the 20th instant, and at once enter up on the preparation of these bills, the estimates having now been mostly received by the committee. A simi- lar call has been issued to the subcommittee on legislative bill to meet November 27, and Chairman Sayers expects that all these bills shall be ready for presentation on the opening bill day in the session. It is now quite definitely settled the tariff bill will be ready by the open ing of the regular session, and with the committee on ways and means and appropriations both ready for action, 1t is probable the opening month of the session will offer little of the monotony of previous sessions when the work of congress is so frequently delayed by the tardiness of committees.
 Chairman Springer, of the bank ing and currency committee, upon which will also devolve much i'm portant work in the coming session, Is in constant communication with colleagues of his committee ard holding frequent conferences with financial officials, and announces that no tardiness of the banking and cur rency committee will prolong the coming session. There is well concerted determination among the chairmen of all important commit tees to conclude their work at the earliest practicable date, and Demo cratic leaders generally hope for an adjournment of the regular session at a day not later than June 30, the work of the special session having facilitated the organization of the houses and enabled all committees to proceed at once with their labors, an adjournment at this early date -,o,,oo ,,oeatt t,lo
