Maryland Steel company accepted an order
or 1900 tons Of rails, delivered on the line
)f the Boston and Albany railroad at 50
per ton, and within "A couple of days the
Carnegie Steel company has sold rails at
ihe phenomenally low price Of S2i. 80 at the
mill. This is slashing prices with a ven
geance and is unparalleled in this branch

consequences of the action of the same peo-

This condition Of affairs Is due to the in

A Bold Robber Fooled by Bold Bank
Treasurer.

CLEVELAND, Nov. ia daring attempt
was made to rob the Society for Savings
which nearly resulted in the murder of
Colonel Myron r. Herrick, the treasurer
Of the institution. Owing 10 the bravery
of Colonel Herrick, the robber was baked,
although the treasurer had a narrow escape
from death, bullet fired by the robber
passing through his coat and burying itself
in the frame of an office door.
A stranger entered and asked for private
interview. Colonel Herrick led him into
the trustees room, the stranger closing
the door behind them. The man was Of
medium height and build, with a sandy
mustache. He was rather poorly dressed
and wore slouch hat and was in APP
pearance not different from scores Of men
who call upon Colonel Herrick daily.
Colonel Herrick seated himself upon a
corner Of the table that stands in the mid
die of the trustees room. He was at the
corner next the door. The stranger passed
him and stood at the further end Of the
table
Without preliminary remarks the man
said: II want some money, and want you
TO give it to me. Now you can go into the
vault and give me $4,000 I'll go with
you, and the clerks in the banking house
Will think you are showing me the vaults. %
The stranger quickly drew revolver from
his pocket and thrust the muzzle against
Colonel Herrick's head. 'If you don't do
that" he continued, 'I'll shoot you l
have charge of dynamite in my other
hand, and I'll blow us both up"
Colonel Herrick struck the man in the
Ne and knocked him down. The robber
sprang to his feet, shot at Colonel Herrick
and spraRg out of an open window into the
street. The ball passed through the right
side of Colonel Herrick's coat. The robber
has not been found.

RESTORATION IS URGED
Secretary Gresham's Views on
the Hawaiian Matter.

The Secretary Of State Says That Idliuoka-

Landing Of the Boston's Marines and
That the Injustice should lie Repaired.
WASHINGTON, Nov ia letter Of Sec
'etary Gresham to the president. dated
The 18th, concerning Hawaiian affairs, has
been handed out for publication In 1t he
takes the ground that the marines landed
from the United States steamer Boston at
the time of the revolution were not landed
to protect American life and property, but
TO aid in overthrowing the existing govern
ment Their very presence he says, implies
coercive measures against it, The provi-
sional government was established by the
action of the American minister aud the
presence of troops landed from the Boston
and its continued existence is due to the
belief of the Hawaians that il they made
an effort to overthrow it they would en-
counter the armed forces of the United
States
MIR. Gresham Theories.
The letter concludes as follows: "The
earnest appeals to the American minister
for military protection by the officers of
the provisional government after il has
been recognized show the utter absurdity
Of the claim that il was established by a
successful revolution Of the people Of the
islands
Those appeals were a confession by the

bloodshed. For the past week the people
of this aud surrounding counties have been

Leroy WicklifTe, negro, was badly
wounded and will probably die. Paul

but their injuries are not Of a serious ma

More trouble may result. The negroes
are considerably wrought up over the oc.
