ney' and Col. Fellows, in regard to the

tion, but the commissioner admitted them.

how many misdemeanors? %
MY clerk did not get that information
for me-
How many indictments were pending
and undisposed of on Dec. l. lSs4?'
About 500 bail cases.
Mr.. Unger was then requested to tell

then instructed Mr.. Unger to produce the
necessary information.
Mr.. Phillips announced that he would
rest his case.
Mr.. McCurdy then said: when the
district attorney knows what the case
against him is he will accept the burden
of responsibility and endeavor to dis
charge it. But we are not going to argue
until the other side has finished"
When will you get your papers from
the general sessions?" inquired the com
missioner.

KIMBERLY ON THE mAssAoRE.
he Promises That England VIII Do Her
Duty by the Armenians.

London. Nov. 6--Lord Kimberly, secre-
tary Of the foreign once. was the chief
guest at a dinner OF the Eighty club this
evening. lie said. in his speech. that the
Armenian atrocities had excited horror In
every civilized country. and this feeling
was shared fully b. the British govern
ment. Every effort was being made to Sc
cure an impartial and searching inquiry
The foreign Office was in active correspon-
dence with its agents near the scene OF
the massacre and would not fail 10 per-
form its full duty to the country.
The committee OF the Armenian soci-
" In London passed this resolution to-
day; 1t Is the manifest duty OF the
English government to propose to the
powers International action in behalf OF
the Armenians under Turkish rule with
out waiting for the report OF the commits
sion OF inquiry, which probably never will
less"
The Daily News has this dispatch from
its correspondent In ConstantinOple:
News from various sources confirms the
belief that the first report OF the Ar
menlan massacre was not overdrawn.
There Is no reason to belve that the
truth was hidden from the sultan, who on
Nov. 80 requested the United States min
lister 10 send delegate to accompany the
municated with Washington, but the de-
cision of the Washington government Is
yet unknown. The sultan on Dec. 2 re-
quested Gen. Blount's pasha to go to Bit
las and report directly to the palace.
Gen. Blounts health prevented his go
ing, which was regrettable. inasmuch
as he would have been a trusty investi-
gator"
The Standard learns that President
Cleveland expressed to the sultan his re-
gret that he was unable to send an
American delegate into Armenia with the
commission of inquiry.
Constantinople, Dec. 6.-An Armenian
journal in Tiflis reports that the gov
ernor of Bitlas recently sent a circular
letter to conspicuous Armenians in his
district commanding them to sign an ad-
dress to the sultan, declaring that all
the stories or the Sassoun atrocities are
untrue. They refused and eight were ar.
rested. II is reported that there Is trouble
IN the Armenian district IL Zeitum.

THREE sHoT DEAD.
A Man Follows the Ruin of a Girl by
Killing Her Relatives.

Ashland, Ky, Dec. GA tragedy that
will end in the loss Of three lives occurred
last night at a small hamlet called Fultz,
three miles from here. For six months,
Thomas James. a whisky pedler, repre-
senting himself to be a cattle drover. has
been clandestinely meeting the daughter
Of Farmer George Fultz The parents sus-
picion Of the girl were confirmed by her
confession. The father, his son George
and a son-in-law, went in search OF
James. He was found at church, where
revival meeting was being held. When
the farmer took him aside trouble soon
began. Fultz was instantly killed by a
bullet through his heart. The sons then
took a hand and when their pistols were
emptied the younger Fultz was also dead,
and the son-in-law, John Phyllis, was
mortally wounded, bullet having passed
through his head. James escaped injury,
apparently, as he jumped over fence in
the underbrush and escaped. He was
pursued. The hunt lasted the rest Of the
night, but was fruitless. Men searched all
to-day and dogs will be employed to-
morrow. Fultz had q large family con-
nection. The daughter is in danger of be-
coming hopelessly insane

THREE MEN HOLD UP A TRAIN
They Are Said 10 Have Secured Si4O,-
600 by The Raid.

The Scene OF the Robbery Only Eight
Miles West OF Fort worth-Ths Fire
man Compelled to Break Open the
Door Of the Express Car at the Point
Of Revolvers After Securing the
Booty the Robbers Mount Horses and
Escape-A Posse in Pursuit.
Fort Worth, Tex. Dec. 6.-One Of the
most daring train robberies ever commit
ted in Texas took place eight miles west
OF here and two miles east OF Benbrook
station, this evening about o'clock.
As an eastbound Texas and Pacific pas
senger train was nearing Mary's creek. IL
was brought to a sudden stop by a danger
signal displayed on the trestle.
The engineer was covered by three un-
masked men who boarded the cab and
ordered that the train be backed up
about a half mile. when the fireman was
covered and ordered to break in the ex-
press car door. He refused. but the rob-
bers pulled the triggers of their guns,
and number OF shots in the air brought
the fireman to terms. He bursted the ex-
press car door with a pick. One Of the
robbers then kept the fireman and engi-
neer covered, while the others went into
the express car.
Fort Worth is the end Of the express run
and the safe doors were open. One OF the
robbers rihed the safes while the other
kept guard over the messengers. At q
o'clock the train was stopped and 80 min
utes later It was in Fort Worth. The ex-
act amount the robbers secured is not
known, but 1t Is said to have been near
$4,000 in money. gold bullion en- route
from San Francisco to Washington and
Texas Pacific checks.
After the hold-up the robbers mounted
their horses, told the engineer to go on
and then made off in a northwesterly di-
rection. The express onicials here say
they do not know the amount taken. but
that 1t is the only through train from the
west and carries every evening a large
amount Of money. On the arrival OF the
train at Fort Worth posses were at once
organized to follow the robbers.
