where the Bandits Lived.

ST. LOUIS, Sept 22.-The home of the
unsuccessful Centralia train robbers
has for the past two years been in this
city, and if superstition counts they
had no right to expect success. Jones
roomed at 1913 Chouteau avenue, Har-
lin at 1910 and O'Dwyer at Thirteenth
and Chouteau, all taking their meals
at 1913. During the two years they
have lived in that vicinity they have
worked for various railroads, and
though out of work the past few
months, only left few days ago, prob
ably after having perfected the plans
for their imperfect hold up.

WASHINGTON. Sept eat is alto
gether probable that C. H. J. Taylor
will not go TO Bolivia as United States
minister The senate committee on
foreign affairs do not like the appoint

effort will be made to have Taylor's
position changed to something else out

ton, it is thought, will be taken by the
president, as numerous protests have
been fled since the announcement of
