HAVE STOLEN A TRAIN.
Desperate Act Of Alleged Western Nj
ners.
They Are Starving, and Are En- Route to
Alabama to Take the Places of the
Striking Miners There.

Houston, Tex, Oct. 10.-Southern Pa
cific officials are considerably excited over
the news recei we'd from points along the
line concerning the capture of one of
their freight trains at Delrio by a band
of sixty five armed men, who claim to be
miners from California and New Mexico.
The men say they are driven to despera-
ton by the delay in the Senate in settling
the silver question, SO business may be
resumed in the silver producing states
and they propose going to Alabama
to take the places of the striking miners,
as it is now work or starvation
with them. They are running the train
on their own schedule, and the dispatch
ers are puzzled in order to avoid collision
with the regular trains. They stop at
different towns and levy tribute of pro-
visions, but so far have committed no
other depredations. They are we'll armed,
and the officers dare not attack them, I'M
less they can muster a large posse, which
cannot be done except in large cities. 1t
is expected they will abandon the train
near the end OF division, go around the
city, and by capturing other trains pro-
coed on their jour ney.
Headquarters of the Southern Pacific
here has just received a telegram from
San Antonio stating that when the train
pulled in there, forty of the tramps were
caught, while sswenty-five escaped, but
were being pursaed.

.PARNBLLITES BREAK
WITH GLADSTONE.
They Claim He Has Abandoned
Irish interests.
THE REDMOND SENSATION
The Irish Cause Is Menaced by a
Deadly Peril.
The Names of Dillon and O'Brien Greeted
with Groans and Hisses-Reorgani-
cation of the Irish Party
Strongly Urged.

Dublin, Oct. lot was evident from
the speech of John Redmond, leader OF
the Parnellites party, at meeting here
last night and the resolutions of the meet
ing that the Parnellites had definitely
broken with Gladstone, and will here
after fight all English matters in the
house of commons. The speech has
caused sensation here and in political
circles throughout Great Britain. Red
mond said the Irish cause at present was
menaced by deadly peril which was the
inevitable result of the nationalist's sur
render to the English. Parnell's pre-
diction was fully justified; there was no
use deceiving the Irish people into the
belief that the British people who
had taken up nome rule acted from
any other motive than necessity, and only
when they realized that British interests
were imperilled. The Liberals had now
hung up home rule for an entire year, un-
til 1894 at least and intended to proceed
to the consideration of English reforms
without having settled with Ireland, SO
soon as the voters of Great Britain
realized that Ireland would submit to
this. Thus large part of ParnelPs life
work was undone and home rule would
disappear for a generation or more.
Furthermore, what could Gladstone offer?
The last sessions bill was dead and the
next one would be further compromise
Redmond criticised the course of Dillon
and o. Brlen, whose names were greeted
with groans and Kisses. He added that at
the coming session he and his followers
would decline to follow the government to
a division on the English questions. This
statement was greeted by prolonged
cheering. The Parnellites then passed
resolutions that the refusal of the gov
eminent to consider at the autumn ses-
sion measure to roinstate the evicted
Irish political prisoners and Gladstone's
failure, at Edinburgh recently, 30 define
his intentions in regard to the Irish ques-
ton, indicated the policy he intended to
follow in regard to home rule. All this
necessitated Immediate action upon the
part of the Irish party and the reorgani-
cation of that party throughout the coun-
try should be one of the first steps taken.

FRANCHISE REFORM.
1t is to be Made by the Austrian Gov
eminent

1t Is to be Made by the Austrian Gov
eminent.
Vienna, OCT. 10.-There was much ex-
element and surprise in the reichsrath
when Count Taafe. president OF the min
istry and minister of the interior, an
nounced that he desired to submit a bill
for the extension of the franchise. He
declared the government itself had re-
solved to take the initiative in the matter,
as they were convinced it was impossible
to further delay measures for franchise
reform. The bill introduced by the gov
eminent aims at enabling any one prop
erly fulfilling his duties as a citizen to
vote at elections. The premier concluded
by advising the house TO discuss the Gill
at the earliest date. Ia view OF the pre-
vailing agitation, Count Taafe's action is
considered very clever move and one
calculated to cut the ground from. under
the heel of the agitators. The proposals
contained in the bill produced profound
impression. The socialists are not satisfied
with the measure, because it does not
touch the existing group of system of
election with four classes of constitu-
encies. On the other side, it is argued
the proposed reforms only apply to the
middle classes, whose votes will be
swamped by the increased Socialist votes.
1t is not at all certain the bill will be
passed, but its Introduction is regarded as
most important as opening an era of par
liamentary reform.

WHAT SALT LAKE MAY EXPECT.
How Boise Is Suffering from a Water
Monopoly.

Boise, Ida., Oct. 1O.-[Special. IAN
agent of the Insurance Union, who has
been investigating the fight between the
city council and the water company that
has monopoly OF the business here, to-
day sent a report to the headquarters in
San Francisco to the effect that this city
is practically without protection from
fire. The law of this state provides that
water shall be furnished free for fire pur-
poses, and this the water company re-
fused to do, claiming the act is uncon-
stitutional. The council refused to pay
for the service and the company threat
ened to shut off the water altogether from
the fire plugs. The council had the COM
pany enjoined from carrying the threat
into effect, and the company now an
nounces that it will not turn on the water
from its high pressure reservoir II case of
fire, as has been the custom. Some IN
easiness prevails in business circles, as it
is feared the insurance rates will be raised
TO a high figure at once.

THE GREAT CRUSH AT THE FAIR.
Victims Were Carefully Looked After and
Soon Discharged.

Soon Discharged
Chicago, Oct. 1O.-A large number OF
people, attracted to the city by the
Chicago day pageant, will remain most
of the week, and they added materially to
the Worlds fair attendance today. The
weather continues perfect. Physicians
and attendants worked nearly all night
over the people who met with accidents
in the fearful brushes yesterday and last
night, but the patients were rapidly dis
charged this morning. In the pieces OF
paper, empty lunch baskets and the gen
orally trampled appearance this morning,
the grounds gave evidence OF yesterdays
great host.
This is North Dakota day. Governor
Shortridge, Ex-Governor Burke and other
prominent citizens of the state took part
in the exercises in the state building. It
was also Firemen's day, and many fire
laddies were on tbs grounds.
The veteran hremen were at the fair in
great numbers, prominent among them
being the Veteran Firemen's association
of California. Escorted by the firemen of
Chicago, they paraded through the
grounds, having with them the old hand
engine built in New York in 1920, for
Martin Van Buren,. 1t was the first fire
engine in the state OF California. The
Chicago men had with them an engine
that was used in the Chicago fire. The
veterans spent most of the day in the
California building, where they were
royalty entertained.
The national commission today in
structed the committee on ceremonies to
prepare for the grandest exercises yet
given as fitting close to the fair. 1t is
not yet determined whether the celebra-
ton will be on the last DAY only or the
last three days. That the great mass of
the people who went to the fair yesterday
didn't have enough of it is evidenced by
the fact that the total attendance today
reached 335, 264, of which 30S,613 paid.

Washington, Oct. 10.-Senators of all
shades OF opinion now agree that the
night session experiment was necessary
to bring the Senate to an agreement on
the financial question. Opinions differ
much as to the probable length of the
continuous session and as to what the re-
suit of it will be. The silver men are
counting upon its continuing for forty
eight hours aud are making their plans
accordingly. They will make an effort at
s O'Clock tomorrow afternoon TO secure
an adjournment, but do not expect to
succeed. After the adjournment motion
is voted down, some one of the silver ad-
vocateS will take the floor and speak
until relieved by some other Senator OF
like views.
The leaders on the Silver side say, as
far as they can control their forces, they
will insist that the majority shall main
tain quorum. 1t is evident the repeal
men will have to be continuously present
and in quite large numbers to prevent an
adjournment. The majority of the sena-

will go through as reported. careful

THE OCTOBER RETURN.
Tho Conditions of Various Crops Through
out the Country.

out the Country.
New York, Oct. 10.-The October re-
turns OF the department of agriculture
makes the general condition of corn 81. z
last month and 1913 for October, 1892.
This falling off is the result of the con-
tinued drought since June and was not
broken in the corn belt until the latter
part of September. The drought was the
most severe in the principal corn-pro-
ducing states. The averages of the con-
dition is these states are: Indiana, 6I !;
Illinois, Go; Iowa, SO; Missouri, SO; Kan
svs, "a; Nebraska, So. Returns of yield
per acre of wheat indicate the production
is about 11.3 bushels, being II bushels
less than the last October estimate. The
rate of yield in New York is 1876 bushels;
Pennsylvania, Ia; Ohio, 10; Michigan :,
10; Indiana, 14.2; Illinois, Ia; Wisconsin,
1873; Minnesota. 81; Iowa, 11.5; Mis-
souri,, 9.5; Kansas, "a; Nebraska, 81;
South Dakota, So; North Dakota, 9.5;
California, 11.2.
The highest rate is in New England, ,
the eastern, the extreme western aud the
mountain states, and the lowest in the
central, the west and the southern states.
The small yield is the result of drouth IN
the fall, which caused poor termination
and growth; the severe winter following
causing considerable winter-killing.
The low condition in many states is the
result of dry spring. The yield would
have been much less had not much worth
less wheat been plowed up and the ground
put in other grains.
The quality in the eastern, southern
and Pacific states is up to the average,
while in the states from which the COM
mercial supplies are obtained is below the
average. The states reporting the lowest
averages as to quality are: Kentucky, Sc;
Illinois, so; Wisconsin, So; Iowa, SO;
Missouri, 70; Kansas, 20; Nebraska, "a.
The average of oats as consolidated is,
23.5 bushels against 24.3 last year. The
last report of the condition was 74.9
against 1873 the same month last year.
The average of the estimated state yields
of rye is, 1873 against 1877 last year. The
average yield OF barley is, 21.7 against 22.7
last year. The condition of buckwheat
was 1916 as against 77.5 last month,
and 85.6 on October 1st, 1892.
The condition OF potatoes is, ZIP, loss
only Of a SIX tenths point since the last
report, but the three October conditions
have been lower in the last decade, 1887,
1890 and 1892. The condition of tobacco
improved slightly over the last month
being "a. l against 1913 last month.

Vienna, Oct. 1O.-Minister Steinbach,
referring to the financial situation today
in the reichsrath, said the Austrian
securities which were flowing back con-
sisted chiefly of silver rentes. Foreign
countries are now frightened at the very
name of silver; therefore, Austria adj
hered to the view existing in con-

finance minister predicted that in
course of a few years Austria would

required. while the United States would
be passing through an unprecedented
crisis. Austria, he added, was free from
difficulties, and the currency mast not be
restricted or inflated. America, he said,
showed to what initiation led. The min-
lister of war presented bill to reorganize

that the growth of the army estimates
would continue owing to political condi-
lions, which are not likely to alter.
