said to have strengthened its grasp.
Its most significant feature is the car
rying of the strike eastward.
The mails were in more disorganized
condition yesterday than any time since
the strike. Many of the factories are
to close down and it is said that 100000
men will then be thrown out of work.
The General Managers Association
yesterday afternoon passed resolutions
stating that it is not fact, as some Of
the State officials have minated, that
the present stoppage of railroad traffic
is due TO the lack Of trainmen, instead of
to lack of protection by peace officers.
The resolutions set forth that so per
cent. Of the employees of Chicago lines
are anxious to work, and are only pre-
vented by the lawlessness of mobs not
yet suppressed.
1t is said that the railroad companies
will bring suit against Chicago and
Cook county, ILL.,, for the losses they
have sustained by the strikers on the
ground that the property on which
they pay taxes was not protected
Eugene Debs, the A. r. o. leader,
has issued another circular in which,
in print. he cautions the strikers against
violence and says
LET it be borne in mind that if the
railroad companies can secure men to
handle their trains, they have the right.
Our men have the right to quit, but
their right ends there" Later he sent
out kilograms advising the strikers to
hold out p hours longer If by that
time the situation had not improved he
said organized labor all over the coun-
try would be called out without reserve
His circulars seem to but increase the
acts OF violence and destruction by his
men.

Two Stoves.
pr the Herald

Written for the Herald:
Said Jim to Pat, How do you like
The stove you bought of me?
I've sold one to your neighbor Mike,
1t fits him to a T."
Said Pat to Jim, "Thc blessed thing!
That stove saves half the wood;
Me pork is hot, me children sing,
Me wife is swatc and good"
Then Jim replied and said to Pat,
Now just you buy another;
And all your wood will then be saved
No cost, no fuss or bother"
That must be SOL" cried Pat to Jim.
Another stove I'll buy!
One stove saves half, two stoves saves al
No one can that deny"
He bought his stove and set it up,
And dreamed of bliss to come.
But ah! at night there was no sup,
And terror ruled his home.
Then Pat sat down upon the floor,
In hunger, cold and dirt;
And tried to figure o 'er and DER
What his fine plan had hurt.
Now don't call Pat simple fool;
While all our great, proud nation,
BY following logic" for its rule,
Has reached a similar station.
We've bought two stoves as we'll as he
The arguments we followed
Stand plain and clear as all may see,
But inside we are followed.
Dear Uncle Sam has sought the floor,
In hunger, pain and Dirt
While Growers doctors figure DER
Their states to find his hurt.

OVERTURES FOR PEACE.
EFFORTS TO STOP THE WAR IN
THE 0RIENH.
The United 5tatns Invited to Join in
Friensiy Intsrvsntion-An Uncoa-
hrmed Rumor that China
Has Surrendered.

New YORK. Oct. IA special from
Washington ssye: The United States
has been invited by the quadruple nlli-
ancs. composed of Great Britain, France,
Germany and Russia to join it in
friendly intervention In the war between
China and Japan. The invitation will
be declined. The declination is baeed
on the time honored policy of
this government to avoid any en-
tangling alliance with foreign powers.
Acknowledgement is made of the truth
in what the invitation has to say about
the desirability of the restoration of
peace. ETC., but in the polite language Of
diplomacy it is pointed out that this
country has 80 far got along very well
attending to its own business. and that
so long as it continues to prosper by
that policy it will not depart from it.
SHANGHAI, Oct. ia rumor is cur.
rent here that the Chinese government
has commenced negotiations with Japan
for peace. China. it Is said, has offered
to acknowledge the Independence OF
Corea, and pay war indemnity to Japan.
LoNDoN, Oct. 12.-The Times will to-
morrow publish dispatch from Shang-
hal stating that reports from Moukden
confirm the statement that only 1000
Chinese troops, commanded by General
Tao, were at Ping Yang. They repulsed
the Japanese until General Tso was
killed. This. it is added, explains the
small Chinese loas.

A BIG HAUL.

Tho Sacramento Train Robbers Got
Away with $4,000.
San FRANCISCO, Oct. l2.-The bandits
who held up Southern Pacific overland
train few miles west OF Sacramento
last night, and looted the Wells-Fargo
company's express car, secured over
$4,000 They seem to have eluded the
officers and escaped with the plundsr,
which was nearly all in gold coin, and
consequently heavy burden. Beyond
the mere supposition that the bandits
are railroad men, who, having been in
the employ of the company-and this
eupposition 10 based only ON their appar.
ent familiarity with railroad methods
and their ability to successfully handle
a locomotive-the pursuing officers have
little to work upon. The astounding
success OF the hold-up was not known
until this afternoon. Earlier reports of
the robbery gave the amount Of money
taken as Sic, GOO. When inquiry was made
this morning at the general Offices OF
Wells-Fargo in this city, Manager
Cooper declined to state how much
plunder the robbers had secured, declar-
ing that it was simply O matter between
the express company and the consignees
OF ths treasure. He refused positively
to give any information on the point.
The truth came out. however. when the
Southern Pacific company issued q cir
culsr Offering reward of $40, 200 for the
arrest of the two robbers and the recov-
cry OF the plunder. In this circular il
is stated that the bandits plundered the
express car of over $50, 900 in gold. The
circular announces that the Southern
Pacific company and the Wells. Fargo
company will pay s2500 for the capture
OF each robber and $4,000 for the capture
of the money. or proportionate amount
for any part OF tho whole.
