Admiral da Cana replied that the only

The American admiral then lost his tenn

SUPT. TOPPING INDIGNANT.
He Says That Express Company Offer
ed BAIL for Guard Mills.

Superintendent Topping of the New rar-
sey division CT the cnited States Exnrass
Company Is indignant at Guard Mills be-
ing locked up for shooting a man supposed
to be train robber here Sunday night.
When reporter called on Superintendent
Topping in his Office Mr.. Topping was
greatly incensed at the treatment of Mills
by the New York police
1T is an outrage" he said, that an in
nocent man should be locked up Mr.. Mills
simply did his duty. and l telephoned Sd
perintendent Byrnes that the company
would furnish bail. Mills was a trusted
employe of the company. and, has been a
guard since last November, when il was
found necessary to place guards on the
train
There was another guard OH the same
train, but l do not intend TO tell, for the
benefit of thieves, where the guards are
stationed. Mills life was threatened, and
he did only what was right in shooting in
self-defense Mills said ne did not know
whether either of the tramps had been
wounded, but that If one Of them had been
hit he hoped he had not been killed"
Ever since last iall, Superintendent Top
ping says, the express company has been
annoyed by series of petty thefts on its
trains. No. At, the one on which Mills was
a guard, has been broken into many times
III THESE INSTANCES the panels the doors
were kicked in or "a piece OF steel rail was
used to force them. The thefts were not
large, amounting to not more than $50
worth of goods in each case. The tramps,
who line the road, and to whom these rob-
berries have been attributed, gather at
points along the road where the trains are
known to stop. When start was about
to be made they would jump on the plat
form of a car and effect an entrance while
the guard was at the other end OF the
train. The robberies became so frequent
and daring that the express company was
obliged to put an extra guard each
train. The guards were armed with re-
peating rifles, and had need of them, for in
one night in a 2j0-mile run through Vir-
ginia, twenty-five We're put off the train
short time ago tramps tried to break
into express car No. i6, which carried val
liable silks but were put off. 1t was an
nounced yesterday evening that the man
who shot By Mills had not been killed
but had been wounded in the leg.

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-Several Of the
bank officers who attended yesterdays con-
ference with the Secretary of the Treas
ury have arrived at the cor clusion that it
would be mistaken policy to allow the bond
issue to fail because of inactivity or lack
of support on the part of the financiers of
this city. They have also been influenced
to this conclusion by fears that If the issue
should not be successful Secretary Carlisle
would endeavpr to secure the passage of a
bill authorizing the coinage Of the seignior-
age of silver bullion row in the treasury.
A further consideration. was the posi-
bility of the reflection upon the credit of
the government by the failure to sell the
bords.
Under these circumstances President
Stewart Of the U. S. Trust Co. and Presi-
dent King of the Union Trust Co. have
undertaken the formation of a syndicate to
bid for the entire issue at the upset price.
II is understood also that they have inter-
ested Russell Sage and President Olcott of
the Central Trust Company with them.
and that the latter will cooperate with
them in the movement. which is now under
way and likely to be success.
