BURGLARS CAUGHT.
They Rendezvoused in an Opium Joint
in Chicago.
Bu The Associated Press.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Sept. 13.--In the arrest
last night of Harry Hiertley and George
Huxton, who were caught robbing house
on Langley Avenue, the police un-
earthed another gang OF burglars.
Through the confession OF Huxton,
IL was found that the gang
operated on an extensive scale, the,district
included in their operations, being from
Evanston to the Indiana State line, and
from the lake west to the western city
hints. Acting upon Huxton's in
formation the police raided an
opium joint on State street
and discovered a large gang, including
two woman and two Chinese. There are
% members in the gang and the police ex .
pect TO bag the rest to-day. From the
opium joint the police carried to the sta
tion four wagon loads of various kinds
OF stolen goods. This is not all, however,
as the police expect to get more goods
stored at other places. The plan of the
gang was to thoroughly ransack all
houses which they found temporarily un-
protected by their owners.

A CURIOUS DECISION.
Bv The Associated Press.

BLOOMINGTON, ILL.,, Sept. H.-Judge
Upton of the Circuit Court here has
rendered decision respecting the legal
rights of men engaged in business. In
July last two colored men applied to ii. II.
Greene, a druggist, for soda water and
were refused on account of their color.
Each sued Greene for $500 damages under
the statue OF civil rights. Judge Upton
decided they had no cause for action;
that the law prohibiting keepers of hotels,
restaurants, eating houses and barber
shops, public conveyances, thea
ters and places OF public accom-
modation and amusement discriminating
between people on account of color, did
not apply 60 a druggist or to merchants
dealing ia dry goods, groceries, etc, nor
Go professional men, aud that they might
choose the persons with whom they
wished To deal. The case will be appealed
to the Supreme Court.

CENSUS WORK.
II is Being Rapidly Drawn to a Close,
According TO Mr.. Wright.


WAsHINoToN, Sept. 1i.-The work OF
the eleventh census is about completed,
the work on population and vital statistics
being all that remains 10 be done. The
vital statistics are made up largely OF the
figure on population and have therefore
been held back.
Chief Clerk Downell thinks that in less
than five months the work of the census
will be completely finished and the pres
ent force Of 400 employees reduced To 40 or
So But while the census work proper will
thus be finished in a few months itmay be
several years before the printing is done
add the computed work published. The
completion OF work at SO early period
in the decade is remarkable, and
to Superintendent Wright's skill and
experience in handling statistics it is
largely attributed. There have been prop
ositions from time to time since the 11th
census was taken to make the census
bureau q permanent institution, but these
will possibly be abandoned.

PAID REBATES.
By The Associated Press.


CHICAGO, Sept. H.--The Herald, today,
says:
Expert Little has given the Interstate
Commerce Commission proof, which that
body believes, of the existence Of rebate
payments by Atchison officials. Mr..
Little was in Washington last week and
his testimony is now on record. Two, at
least, OF the commissioners declare that
they will bring action against ali officials
implicated and punish them to the full
extent OF law. This will be test of the
Interstate act with Congress, as there is
liability of $4,000 fine and two years
imprisonment for each payment OF re-
bates OF which there is proof. Pho
tographic fac SMILES were obtained of two
rebate vouchers calling for $4,000 to two
shippers who had patronized the Atchison.
In addition they have obtained the
affidavit Of an employee who had received
a large amount OF money in rebates for
his employer.

ST.. JOSEPH, Mo-, Sept. 14.--Thirty- five
hundred spectators from Omaha, Kansas
City, Chicago, Des Moines, Topeka and
other cities saw the sun of Bill Layton's
ambition go down before the hand of
Tommy Ryan last night. The fight took
place in a most unusual spot, on sand
bar in the middle OF the Missouri river,
and under tent in which the great
Georgia evangelist, Sam Jones, made his
first public appearance in this section 10
years ago. 1t was the intention TO have
the fight take place at the room OF the st.
Joseph Athletic Club, but the Missouri
Ministers Association filed protest with
the police commissioners and adjournment
was taken TO the island, which is neutral
ground, being situated half way between
Missouri and Kansas. 1T was IL 40 o'clock
when Ryan appeared in the ring. Layton
appeared two minutes later. Andy Kisi-
mar OF Kansas City was selected referee
ana James Connolly and Jack
Wilkes of ST. Louis went
behind layton, while Martin Durkin OF
st. Joseph, and Kid Vance of Omaha filled
the same place for Ryan. Andy Timpo-
neo of Syracuse, N. Y, and Sam Potter of
Chicago were time keepers. AT IL 80 the
men shook hands and the fight opened.

Astoria Full of Democratic Dele
gates and Candidates Ready for
the Convention.

Delegates to the Democratic state
convention. which meets in this city to-
morrow, have been arriving all day.
The hotels last night were filling fast
but room will be provided for all who
come, and none will have to be turned
away. About rs delegates came down
on the steamer Telephone about p. m
yesterday, and they were met at the
dock by DR.. Mullinix, Herman Wise
and other prominent Democrats.
There is great difference of opinion
as to who will be the nominee for gov
ernor Some say Gen. Compson, of Kla-
math Falls. while others are willing to
bet their coin on Gen. Tom Reames, of
Jacksonville. and then one can find
lunches of enthusiasts here and there
for VIM. Galloway, OF Yamhill county.
Never before in the history of state
convention has there been so much
guess-work and SO little certainty. The
son of prophet would throw UP his
job when facing the days possibilities.
Judge Bonham, Of Salem, seems to
be, so far, in the lead for supreme
judge, though it is hard to tell, as in
an interview with one OF the prominent
delegates he claimed that II was best
that the ermine should fall on some
good Portland lawyer
In speaking Of the supreme judgeship,
members of the bar who are among the
delegates declare that no man should
be clothed with the judicial ermine
whose chief factor in prominence is his
political pull. II is well enough, they
say that judge be a Democrat but
he should first he a great and good
lawyer, whose character and opinions
would be respected by the bar and
bench.
