And the Trainmen Sub
jected Without
Trouble.

By the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Oct. ia gang OF
seven men held up the northbound ex-
press train on the Richmond, Freder-
icksburg & Potomac railroad at Guam
tico last night. The robbers secured
about 100000. Dynamite was explod-
ed under the express car. The mes-
senger opened the door. 1t is believed
that several of the gang were railroad
men. They uncoupled the engine from
the balance of the train and sent it run.
ming wild.
Col. J. M. Scherlford, newspaper
man who was on the train at the time
of the holdup, said when the train was
near Quantico, on the Virginia side, it
was stopped by one of the masked rob-
bers. evidently the captain of the gang,
and from the manner of the arranging
of signals for stopping the train, it was
evident that several of the gang were
experienced railroad men.
There were at least six or seven
masked men in the party. When the
alarmed passengers crowded out of the
cars to see what was the matter the
robbers fired a perfect fusilade of shots
to intimidate them and frighten the
railroad men. The robbers rifed the
express car in short order and some of
the desperadoes even went so far as to
converse in clever daring fashion with
the passengers and train men.
Some of the train men thought they
got away with at least $150,000.. The
express messengers did their best to
prevent the robbers from getting into
the car, but the dynamite and revol-
vers were enough to make any man
weaken. They threatened to kill the
messengers on the spot if they refused
to open the safe, and when the captain
of the gang gave them just thirty Sec
onds to get to work the men gave in.

Julia A. Smith Takes Cardinal
Gibbons to Task.
She Replies to the Cardinals Late
Attack on Woman Suffrage
Thinks He Should Study.
By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, Oct. 13.-Dr. Julia Holmes
Smith, Democratic nominee for trustee
of the Illinois State University, in an
interview today on Cardinal Gibbons
attack on woman's suffrage, said:
'In support of his idea, the cardinal
recites the words of a Grecian ruler
Il command Athens. Athens rules the
world, and my wife rules me; therefore,
she rules the world -
Perhaps, had the cardinal investi-
gated his Grecian history more care
fully, he would have discovered that
it was not the wife that ruled or gov
erned. The man whom Aspasia gov,
erned had wife and family at home.
Thus it has been, and Cardinal Gibbons
would do well to study the history Of
Aspasia."

Harrell unearthed human skleton of a

A Retrograding State.

The population of Vermont was
33O,551 in 1870, 232, 1856 in 1880, and 332,-
422 in 1890. In other words, the state
has been practically stationary for
twenty years, and during the decade
preceding 1890 the gain was only 1876
souls. As Burlington, Rutland, Barre
and some other large towns had sew
eral thousand more inhabitants in
1891 than in 1880, the smaller towns and
the rural communities, of course, lost
ground, and the extent of the loss is
illustrated in such facts as that during
this period the number of farms shrank
from 1892 to 32,573, the total acreage
from 4,Ss2, ,5sS to 4, ,795, ,636 and the i'm
proved acreage from 1886, 461 to 1885,
943, while the unimproved acreage in
creased from 1886, 1877 to 1,729, ,7O3, and
is now larger than in 1850.

An ENCOURAGING Night at the Tempe

The Repu blican meeting at Tempe
attracted a large and earnest crowd
from all points on the south side.
A special train from Phoenix took many

speeches was a stirring and effective
one by Mr.. c. NJ. Frazier. Ne rly all
the county candidates were present and
presented their claims for support.
The manner in which they were re-

AN INDIAN SAW THEM.
The Sunday Morning Ride of the
Three Train Robbers.

The Sunday Morning Ride of the
Three Train Robbers.
The theory that five men were en-.
gagged in the Maricopa train robbery is
about to be disturbed. An Indian ha-
been found who saw three men on Sun
day morning before the robbery riding
in the direction of Maricopa. The
horses they rode, two grays and
a bay, correspond in color with
those captured by Sheriff Muir
ply and Deputy Sheriff Widmer.
The three men were riding from the
direction of the camp where Armer was
afterward captured.
The Indians attention was more par
ticularly attracted to the horsemen by
reason of the fact that white men are
seldom seen on that road.
Henry Morgan will have the Indian
in town this morning to meet Detective
Will Smith and examine a photograph
of Rogers for Identification. If the
Identification is complete it will be
pretty we'll established that the three
men were alone engaged in the rob berry.
The result of it will be favorable to
O'Brien since it is certain that he is
not one of the three who rode back
after the robbery.
