Danville the Scene of an Exciting En-
counter

Danville. Jan. H., Five masked out
laws made raid on the postofflce at
an early hour this morning. A police
man discovered one of the masked rob-
bers and gave the alarm. A number
Of policemen and citizens soon arrived
on the scene and a regular fusilade be-
gan. The robbers concluded to retreat
to the river bank, and discharged three
volleys at the excited townsmen and
ran eastward, each exchanging shots.
Van Glider, who led the pursuers, sud-
denly threw up his hands and fell, shot
through the lungs. About the same
time two robbers fell. Their comrades
grabbed them and managed to reach
the Susquehanna river, where rowboats
were secured, and the three outlaws,
after laying their wounded companions
at the bottom of the boat, rowed away
in the darkness The pursuers, now
reinforced by a hundred infuriated
men, secured boats, and an exciting
chase commenced, revolvers and rifles
cracking at every turn. But no one
was hit The outlaws succeeded in
reaching the opposite shore and disap-
peared in the mountains. The sheriff
declares he will bring back the slayers
of Van Glider, dead or alive.

Associated Press.

Washington. Jan. 1.-THE civil SER
vice law and the way it is admins
tered was discussed in the senate to-
day. Mr.. Perry took exceptions to the
policy of allowing fourth-class post
masters to remain in office in order
to carry out the spirit of the law. Mr..
Gallinger criticised the law and said
it ought to be abolished Mr.. Hoar de-
Tended the law and Mr.. Cockerell said
it was good law if carried out accord
ing to its intents and purposes.
The federal elections bill consumed a
couple of hours. Gray tried to get the
republicans to name day when final
action will be taken on the bill, but
the request was evaded, and Mr.. Frye
said he wanted to hear the other side
discussed. At 5:15 the senate adjourn-
ed until tomorrow
Republican senators will hold eau
Gus tomorrow morning to consider a
plan of procedure on matters before
congress. The lack of interest which
republicans have generally shown in
the bill for the repeal of the federal
elections law viii probably be discuss
ed, and the opinion expressed as to
there is any desire to make u
fight against it further than has al
ready been done.
Mr. Allison, a member of the senate
finance committee, said congress ought
to have been called upon by the secre-
tary of the treasury to take up the
bond question before the tariff, as the
former was the more pressing.
