THE KATY WRECK.
Report That the North Bound Train
Had Been Robbed.

A report was current on the
streets this morning, and eagerly
discussed throughout the city, that
the north bound Missouri, Kansas
and Texas train, due here at GAO,
had been robbed between Waco and
Taylor, and that two men had been
killed.
When the train finally arrive d i,
some three hours late, those who
came on it knew nothing of its hav-
ing been robbed, but said they had
heard that the south bound had
been robbed last night.
The wreck and attempted rob.
btry at White Oak Bayou, fully
detailed in another column, proved
to he he basis for the rumor.
Much Indignation has been ex.
pressed over the dastsrdly deed, and
the general impression seems to be
that hanging would be proper in
case the mlscreants were caught.

Cana and eight officers are still on the
Portuguese corvette Mindello,t to which they
were transferred from the French cruiser

The minister declined to give Da Cana up,
and the government then sent dispatch to
Lisbon, repeating the application which the
minister rejected.
Admiral Da CANA was described in this
dispatch as a military criminal and de-
faulter, having nothing in common with
ordinary political refugees. Lisbon has
not yet returned and answer.
The Portuguese merchant steamer Cidade
do Porto was fired on by the forts a. she
was leaving the harbor last night. She was
compelled eventually to stop and was
searched by government officials, who
mar ched ashore 81 insurgents found among
the crew and passengers.
The total number of prisoners taken by
the government exceeds 1900. Among
them are sick and wounded and many who
were forced against their wills into the in
