CONFESS THEIR CRIME
Young Men Who Robbed the Pacific
Express Company's Office at The
Dalles, Or,
ARE NOW IN CUSTODY.
They Also Told the Officers Where the
Money, Fourteen Thousand Dol
lars, Was Hidden.

The DALLEs, Ore, Oct. 30.-After
two weeks unsuccessful endeavor on the
part of detectives and local officers the
parties who robbed the Pacific Express
company in this city of SD, 0CO on Oct.
l, have at last been apprehended and
placed under arrest and all but 5000 of
the money recovered. Frank Klein and
Otis Savage, young men of respectable
parentage living here, are in jail, hav-
ing made a complete confession of the
theft. Many clues were followed by
detectives, but all proved fruitless until
Sheriff Driver suggested that possibly
Klein and Savage, who have been liy-
ing in idleness about town and who
once belonged to what is known locally
as the Hawthorne gang Of desperadoes,
might be implicated. The clue was
followed and Klein confessed, telling
also where the money was hid. Klein
also confessed that they had robbed the
postottice here on the night Of Sept. &.
These arrests break up one of the worst
gangs of robbers in this section and re-

GREsHAn1's STRONG KICK
Against the Action of the German Govern

Against the Action of the German Govern.
ment in Prohibiting Our Beef.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3O.-Secretary
Gresham has made a very strong repre-
s%entation to the German government
as to the injustice to the United States
of the recent order prohibiting the inn
portation of American cattle and fresh
meat into Germany. He has protested
that the action, which is SO severe a
blow to a great American industry.
was taken without sufficient evidence
of disease among the cattle exported
from the United States or it's conta-
gious character or harmful effects. The
secretary and the German ambassador
were in conference at the state depart
ment on the subject and the minis
ter transmitted the protest to
his home government, promising that
it should receive careful consideration.
There is some reason to hope that our
government may be able to c a
suspension of the order for a time at
least, to afford opportunity for further
investigation and the proper considera-
ton Of such representation as we can
make to support u cause, and reason
for this belief is founded on the change
just made in the German chancellor

USEDDYNAM|TE
Pennsylvania Boarding House
Blown Up by Unknown
Parties.
BUILDING A TOTAL WRECK.
Three Of the Inmates Killed
and Many Injured, Four
Fatally.

W1LKEsBARRE, Pa, Oct. 30.-A large
Hungarian boarding house at Laurel
Run, this county, was blown to atoms
by dynamiters at 3 a. M. and three of
the inmates killed outright, four fatally
injured and half a dozen seriously hurt.
The killed are: Frank Nowaski, Mich
Gallette and George Selocky.
The fiends who planned the explosion
did their work well, despite the fact
that part Of the plan failed. They
placed about "a sticks of dynamite
under the building, each being about 9
inches long and weighing half a pound.
A wire connected the sticks with a bat.
terry about so yards away. When the
signal was given only about half a
dozen of the sticks exploded. They
were sufficient, however, to
Completely Wrecked the Building,
not a beam or plank of which was left
standing. Several Of the inmates who
occupied beds on the upper floor were
hurled 30 feet in the air, some of them
escaping fatal injuries by alighting in
the trees near by. Half dazed by fear
and sleep, they managed to hold on the
limbs until they recovered their senses
and were able to reach the ground. The
trackwalker, who arrived on the scene
shortly after the explosion, says it re-
sembled a battlefield. The cries of the
injured We're heartrending. Some of
them were in the trees and several of
them were lying on the ground. One
OF the boarders who escaped injury
made his way to a neighboring shanty
and woke the inmates. Blankets and
bedding were carried to the scene and
the injured made as comfortable as
possible.
Sent a Special Train.
At daylight the officials Of the Lehigh
Valley railroad were notified and q
special train with a number Of physi-
clans was hurried to the scene. The
doctors dressed the wounds of the i'll
Jured, who were then brought to the
hospital in this city.
Ihe boarding boss says he is at a loss
as to what prompted the dastardly
deed. AS far as he knows he has no
enemies in the world. Some of the
boarders think the motive was robbery,
as several OF them were known to have
had considerable money in their possess
sion. If this was the object of the
fiends it is plain why they placed so
much OF the explosive under the build
ing. They wanted to kill every nerson
in the place in order to get The plumber

arrests have been made.

decision of the circuit court in the case
of John G. Emo, formerly president Of
the Second National bank Of New
York, who was convicted of forgery in

the state courts were without jurisdic-

the federal court. This view of the
law was upheld by the circuit court,
but is upset by the decision of the SUI
preme court which remanded the case
to the state courts.

RIVAL OF TWO TRUSTS.

The Great White Spirit Company VIII
Make Sugar and Whisky.
New YORK, Oct. 3O.-A Wall street
news agency, abiding to the newly
organized Great White Spirit company
OF New jersey, says that the corpora.
ton is likely to become a rival OF the
American Sugar Refining company,
(sugar trust) as well as of the whisky
trust. The plan is to adopt the German
and French method of refining sugar
and making spirits in practically the
same plant.
The sugar is refined from beet juice,
and the spirits are made from the
syrups ana refuse. This country has
already exported some 10, 1000 tons of
syrups to be put through this process.
1t is alleged to be the purpose of the
new concern to reverse that condition
and import syrups from Europe in tank
steamers.

by an explosion which occurred in a
small building on the summit Of a hill
a mile FROM town, where was stored
tive tons Of dynamite. The stuff had
been sent here on consignment from a
Chicago house to a local hardware
merchant. It is presumed that a rifle
bullet, fired by a hunter into the build
ing, lodged in some powder and that
the person lost his life. The ground
was torn up to a great depth
for some distance, while trees
and fences for many rods were
torn and twisted, and numerous trees
were pulled out by the roots. The glass
in every farmhouse for miles around
was shattered. In this city the effect
was disastrous to plate glass fronts and
windows in a number Of dwellings.
The shock came while people were on
their way to church and threw women
and children down and caused several
women to faint.
The village Of Bloomer, 10 miles dis.
tant from the scene, appears to have
fell the force more severely than here.
The scene of the disaster was visited by
thousands.
A handkerchief and piece Of a coat
sleeve were found about so rods away.
and they are thought to be part of the
clothing Of Paul Brohar, an Austrian,
who was seen going in the direction of
