SILENCED HIM.
Bank Robbers at Silvan Grove,
Kan.,-Enact an Unusually
Tragic Deed.
WOUNDED BY THE CASHIER,
His Brother Bandits Finish a
Comrade in Most Delib-
crate Style.

SAI1NA, Kan, Nov. l4.-Three
masked men held up the bank at Silvan
Grove, Kan, 40 miles west of here, at
noon and one Of their number met
death in an unusually tragic manner.
He was shot by the cashier of the bank,
John Galene, and when in a dying con-
dition was perforated with bullets by
his WI comrades, to save themselves
from exposure. The men rode into
town on fast horses. They were finely
mounted and heavily armed. Their
masked faces and flying steeds at
tracted everybody's' attention, but they
wasted no time in getting to work.
They pulled their horses up with a jerk
in front of the bank, and, while one
robber remained seated, holding the
brides of the other two horses, in
guarding the entrance to the bank, his
two companions entered. A citizen
who was transacting business at the
counter
Quickly Compiled With Their Command
to throw up his hands. The cashier
was ordered to turn over what money
ne had, and to do it double quick. He
looked into the muzzles of both revolv-
ers Tor q moment and then reluctantly
complied. 1t was but a few minutes
from the time the bandits turned their
horses into the business street before
they We're again mounted and away
with all the ready cash the bank had.
The moment the robbers We're out of
the building the the cashier secured his
gun, and rushing to the door, opened
ire on them as they were galloping
away. The bullet from the cashiers
gun lodged in the back of one of the
fleeing men. He staggered in his sad
die for a moment, but nerving himself
he kept his seat and galloped on. He
was too badly wounded, however, to
continue, and before he had gone a
quarter of a mile his body swayed to
and fro, and finally he
Fell Heavily to the Ground.
His two comrades, who up to this time
had kept right ahead pulled their
horses up and rode up to the PROSTATE
man, deliberately fired several shots
into his body and dashed away. When
picked up the deserted outlaw was
dead. Nobody knew him and nothing
to identify him by was found on his
person. Who his companions were is
only a matter of conjecture. It is be-
lleved they are a scattered portion of
the Cook gang, working their way
West after having been separated from
the main body and driven from their
haunts in the Indian Territory. The
bank has offered a reward Of 5000 each
for the capture of the robbers, dead or
alive. The eheriffs of three counties
have organized forces, which are o
in search Of the bandits. The amount
Of booty secured has not yet been
learned. The bank officials are keep
ing that quiet.

House Clerk Gains Wisdom from Ex-

Blow Outside Influence and Fear of
Great Britain Ia Delighted.

The rumors which have reached Lon
don from Washington TO the effect that
Great Britain is supporting or co-operat-
ing with the United States in the at
tempt being made to mediate between
China and japan are declared in official
circles there to be altogether incorrect.
The United States Government is UNI
derstood to have acted entirely upon its
own initiative and with complete indie
pendence of the powers. On the contrary,
England has noted the rebuff sustained
by the United States. with positive de-
light. The English foreign Office is not
displeased to see the United States fail
after Great Britain's snubbing in sim
liar attempt. The present attitude of
England in regard to the war between
China and Japan is one of complete mae
ton. She is awaiting developments, es-
pecially as advices have been received
from Japan which show that she is not
likely to listen to any peace overtures at
the present time, as she is prepared TO
carry on a winter campaign.

OFFICIAL LIST NOT MADE.
Clerk of the House Will This Time
Proceed with Caution.

An erroneous impression has gone out
that the clerk of the House of Represent
atives has prepared an official list of mem
bers of the LINth Congress. This he has
not done, says a Washington dispatch,
and would not be able TO do if SO dispos-
cd. for the reason that official returns
have so far been received from only two
districts of the 356, those being the two
Oregon districts. 1t is not expected that
certificates of election will in any large
number be placed with the clerk before
the converting of the short session, and
the probabilities are that all the ccrtifi-
Gates will not be on file for some time
after that date. But even if certificates
should be filed representing all the dis
tricts of the entire country, the clerk
would not in this instance probably be
disposed to issue an official roll call Of
the next Congress before the expiration
of the present.

New York Bank Has It's First Defalca-
ton i'm Over Fifty Years.

The Chemical National Bank of New
York City, one of the most prosperous
and. most conservative institutions in the
country, has, for the first time in half
century, been made the victim of II de-
faulter. The amount involved as far rs
known is $15,715, and John Il. TAFT, who
was the paying teller. is the official
accused. The matter is peculiar, mas
much as the officials of the bank declare
that not n cent of the money went to
his own use The proof of this is that he
could have taken S1.O00,0O0 as well as Il
few thousand had he been SO inclined.
Three-fourths of the sum, they say, he
lent TO personal friends, taking no col
lateral, and only in n few instances re-
ceiving as much as an l. o. L. for the
money; the rest, il is said, is due TO errors
made by TAFT in paying out cash. 1t is
estimated by President Williams and
Cashier Quinlan that the excessive worry
caused by these loans reduced TAFT TO
such condition that he was hardly re-
sponsble for his actions and made many
mistakes. Although the first loans were
made more than year ago, the shortage
having been carefully hidden was not dis
covered by William III. Kimball, the Ma
tional Bank Examiner, when he inspect
ed the institution officially in May last.
TAFT, who is nearly 80 years old, has been
in the banks employ for twenty eight
years, having first been messenger.

CHINA READY TOQUIT
WILL OPEN PEACE NEGOTiA-
TONS DIRECTLY WITH JAPAN.
China Said to BE Willing to Pay an
Indemnity of One Hundred Million
TaeIs Besides All Japan's Expenses
Special Envoy Dispatched.
Bears an Olive Branch.

De Ting, the chief of the imperial GUS
toms al lien Tsin, who was recently sum-
moned TO Pekin in order to confer with
the government as TO ways and means Tor
raising money for the war, has left for
Japan in order TO arrange terms OF peace.
The departure of the Chinese customs
chief for Japan is regarded by officials in
Washington as the result of Japan's de-
mand for direct offer from China. The
De Ting mentioned in the cable is said
to be DIFFERING. German, who occupies
the position of commissioners OF GUS
toms. That he should be sent as the
peace envoy is accounted for by officials
on the ground that an indemnity would
probably be secured on the customs re-
ceipts. 1t has been one of Japan's con-
tcntions that she would expect to receive
the customs receipts of the big Chinese
ports in case an indemnity was arranged.
1t is said that the Chinese envoy will
probably be the guest of United States
Minister Dun at Toxic. japanese officials
have been accorded every courtesy.
Although Japan shows no signs of ex-
haustion, fiscal or military, her Govern
ment and people ought to be satisfied
with the magnificent progress already
achieved in humblng a power ten times
more formidable as to numbers and allied
with the most aggressive imperial SOW
ereignties of Europe and Asia. Eng
land interests are implicated with Chi
mas; Russia's are complicated with Chi
mas. If japan can arrange peace which,
first, shall completely detach Corea from
China; which, secondly, shall give no
new footing to Russia on the northeast
nor to England in the ports and mines
of Corea, Japan will prove herself not
only a war power of distinguished rank,
Notwithstanding her insular insignih-
canoe and her comparatively small num-
bers, but she will have outwitted the
entire array of European diplomatists
who have been lowering over the con-
test like vultures expecting to prey on
both contestants.
China will bear watching in all states
of negotiation for peace. Shameless in
treachery, recreant to pledges, savage to
captives, barbarous in all respects in
which she has not been partially civilized
by force, her diplomats will not hesitate
