THE WORLD AT LARGE.
Summary Of the Daily News
WASHINGTON NOTES.

ASSISTANT SECRETARY REYNOLDS, OF
the interior department, has decided
that section AIS of the revised stat
utes relative to the payment of accrued
pensions was applicable to pensioners
under the act of July %, 1892, granting
pensions to the survivors of certain In
dian wars. He also held that the sec
ton authorizes the widow of the de-
ceased soldier to prosecute his pending
claim under that act and receive the
accrued pension to tae date of the sol
dier's death. This action reverses the
decision of the commissioner of PEN
sions made in May. 1898.
The annual report of Maj. Gen. How
ard. commanding the department OF
the east. has been made public. The
general recommends an increase of the
ARMY as the best method of preserving
the peace until many veXatious ques-
tions which are now troubling the
country. are put at rest by solution
satisfactory to the people of the nation.
He also expresses the opinion that our
coast defenses are in fairly good condi-
ton. and that, in conjunction with our
ever increasing naval armament, there
would be little to fear from outside ag-
gressions.
THE annual report of Brig. Gen.
Ruger. commanding the department of
California, is devoted largely to re-
cital of the events of the great strike
in that state.
POsTMAsTER-GENERAL BIssELL has is
sued an order that hereafter an address
label may be posted on the message
side of an envelope as well as the adj
dress side of postal card.
THE new army regulations are rapid
ly nearing completion and will be
ready before the close of the year.
They cover all questions of discipline.
promotions, ceremonies, pay and the
innumerable things which govern every
branch of an army life. Indirectly the
regulations are awaited with much in
terest by the national guard as the
state troops adopt the government
regulations.
THE annual report of Brighten.
Brooke, commanding the department
of the Platte, says the Indians have
been quiet and peaceable. He also
says that the operation of the Union
Pacific railroad was interrupted by ir-
responsible bodies calling themselves
industrial armies and also by strikers.
In both cases, he says, the United
States troops were successful in restor-
ing order.

TRAIN BANDITS.

Gang in the Indian Territory-A Show.
man Perhaps Fatally Shot.
WAGNER, /. T., Oct. 23.-The Kan
sas City and Memphis express, which
left here at $50 Saturday night, was
wrecked and robbed by the Cook gang
of desperadoes at Correta, blind sid.
ing miles south of here. The trair
was gong at speed of about ,;
miles per hour, and when within
100 feet of the switch man sprane
out from behind an embankment and
threw the switch for the side
track, running the train into a
string of empty box cars. Engineer
James Harris applied the air and
reversed his engine, but did not have
time to jump before the engine struck
the cars on the siding. The robbers
commenced firing at the train and en-
gine as soon as it struck the siding, and
two of the robbers ran to the engine
and commanded Engineer Harris and
Fireman Cottrell to come down. and as
soon as they had dismounted marched
them to the baggage and express
cars, where, by firing through the
doors. they forced Messenger Ford
to admit them. Meanwhile, two
more of the robbers had taken
up positions at the rear end of the
train to prevent anyone's escaping
through the rear doors of the sleeper,
two more mounted the platform be-
tween the smoker and baggage car and
two more the platform between the
first and second coaches, all keeping
up continual firing. During this time
the two in the express car were ran
sacking the car. They got all the
money in the local safe and Messenger
Ford's gun. and then commanded him
to open the through safe. He told
them it was impossible, and after hear
ing his explanation as to how it was
locked they left the express car.
The two robbers on the front plat.
form then started through the coach
demanding money and valuables. AS
soon as they reached the rear end of
the coach the two men on that plat
form started through the second coach.
When they were about half way
through this car freight train follow
ing close behind whistled and Bill
Cook. the leader, who had all the time
remained outside issuing COM
mands, swearing at the pas
sengers and shooting. called for all
hands to come out. The men on the
cars jumped out. and when all were on
the outside, fired last volley at the
train and disappeared in the darkness.
There were eight or ten men in the
party: two of them were white. the
others were half-breeds. or negroes,
possibly white men with blackened
faces. otherwise they were not dis
guised.
Jack Mahara. an advance agent for
Mahara's Minstrel Co.. was struck in
the forehead by bullet and seriously,
if not fatally. injured.
There were two special officers of the
Missouri Pacific road and deputy
United States marshal on the train
but the attack was so sudden that they
were powerless. The train was com
pletely riddled with bullets, every
window being broken and the engine
cab shot pieces. The mail car was
not molested.
