BLEW OPEN THE SAFE
BOLD POSTOFFiCE ROBBERY
AT DELAvAN, WIS.
The Work Done by Three MASKED Men
They Steal = Livery Rig and Es-
cape-Thought to BE Chicago Cracks
men-Amouut Taken Not known.

CHICAGO. Jan. G. -Word has been re-
ccived here that three masked robbers
broke into the Delavan, Wis. postof-
fee at o'clock yesterday. blew
open the safe, secured all the cash
and stamps it contained. bound and
gagged the night watchman, forced
the night clerk in livery stable to
give them horse and surrey, and then
bound and gagged him and made their
escape.
The robbers were at work on the
safe in the postofiice when Chaunccy
Sage, the night Waterman, first saw
them. Foolishly he attempted to rout
them single handed and failed. The
marauders ovcrpowcred him and com
PEELED HIM at the points of three re.
volvers to go into the office, where
they gagged him. bound him
hand and foot, and dumped him
into corner. Then the bur-
glars went back TO their work.
Sage securely gagged and bound, heard
them resume their drilling and could
distinguish every motion they made.
They said nothing, however, that
would lead to their Identification.
The door was opened and the thieves
pulled opt everything of value in the
safe. Money and stamps were quickly
thrown into the bags the robbers car
ried. the rubbish was kicked up into n
pile in corner and the trio left the
Office.
SaCe was able to follow the whole
proceedings, but was powerless to give
an alarm. lie remained tied in the
corner until discovered there by Watch
man Sturtevant about 6 o'clock. The
robbers then proceeded to livery
stable and forced the attendant to har-
ness team to surrey and drove
away. They went in the direction of
Clinton Junction, which is twelve
miles away. If they drove rapidly
they had time enough to get there
and catch the Chicago and
Northwestern train due in Chi
cago at ; o'clock yesterday morning.
This was before the news of the rob
berry had reached Chicago, so there was
no danger of their being apprehended
at the train. and they would have had
plenty of time to get into hiding in the
city.

scription, but even this is far from salts

burning in the stable, and they were

down over their eyes.

They overpowered him and put him in
another room from the one in which he
was working almost before he knew
what had happened.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Jan. G.-Thc
revenue cutter Corwin arrived At the
entrance of the harbor yesterday morn.
ing about IL o'clock.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-Brief official
dispatches were received last night
from the Corwin, but it is stated that
Minister Willis full dispa tches had
not come through up till midnight.
Secretary Gresham absented himself
from his hotel till late hour and
the only information given out was
that he decided in the afternoon not
to make public any news that might
come during the evening. In spite
of the secrecy observed, there is ground
for believing that Minister Willis con-
veyed to the administration the alb
solute defiance of the provisional gov
eminent, and that he rccounted his
own communication with the queen
and with President Dole. As far as
can be gathered Willis did not under
stand that he was to await congress.
sional action, but only that he was not
to call out the marines without further
instructions from Washington.
He went right ahead and demanded
from the queen whether she would
comply with the conditions. When
she agreed he communicated with the
provisional government and politely
suggested that it go out of existence.
The government declined to recog-
nizc any right of Minister Willis
to negotiate for the restoration
of the monarch. The minister
told the queen she would have to wait,
and the minister himself is waiting to
know what step he shall take next.
He especially wants instructions about
the relations of himself to the provis-
ional government when it transforms
itself into republic. According to
the few hints dropped from official
sources he does not apprehend an
outbreak, though the excitement con-
tinues undated. At least the positive
statement is made that the admins
tration does not think there was any
trouble after the departure Of the Cor
win. The belief in Washington is that
the vessel brought information that
the status quo was still maintained,
but the greatest interest is to learn
how the queen received the news that
the administration had done all it
could for her restoration and had now
turned her case over to congress

IOWA SENATORSHIP.
The Contest Becoming Warm Among

contest. The spcakcrship has almost
disappeared from sight. The most
noticeable thing in connection with
the senatorial situation is the caution
at the various headquarters. It's con.
coded by the more conservative tfat
Hepburn and Cummins have strength.
cned themselves and that they will con.
tinuc to grow. The reason assigned
for IIcpburn's increase in strength is
that his attitude on the silver question
has made him friends Cummins' in.
crease is attributed to his personal
contact and the report that he is OPP
posed by Allison. Those who favor
Cummins on this account do not do so
because they arc opposed to Senator
Allison, but because, they say, Allison
has no business mixing up with this
contest. Cummins' friends arc very
enthusiastic, but not more so than
those of Hepburn.
The last man To be named i'm con.
ncction with the contest was Hon l..
s. Coffin of Fort Dodge. His friends
presented his name late in the day, but
they urge that he has some of the
most important elements of strength.
Farmer Coffin" as he is known
throughout the state, resides on Will
lowcdge farm, about three miles west
of this city. He is very strong with
the railroad employees and farmers.

A Roon to Humanity.

A number of our great and most in
vcteratc tobacco smokers and chewers
have quit the use of the filthy weed.
The talismanic article that does the
work is MOTTO bac. The reform was

use of tobacco. lie tried the use of
No.to-bac, and to his great surprise
and delight it cured him. Hon. c. w.

sixty years. tried No-to-bac, and it
cured him Col. Samuel Stoutener,
who would eat up tobacco like COW

a cure of the tobacco habit. but won
dcrful improvement in their general
physical and mental condition, all of
which goes To- show that the use OF to-
bacco had been injurious to them in
more ways than one.
All of the above gentlemen are so
well pleased with the results that we
do not hesitate TO JON them IN recon-

we have thoroughly investigated and
arc satisfied that No-to-bac does the
work well and is a boon to mankind.
