The Alleged Train Robbers.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 2o.-A morning
paper holds that Morgan6eld was NOT
in the Aqua creek express robbery,
but that he and his pals, who are be.
lieved to be hiding about this city, re.
Gently did another job equally afro.
cious that will soon be developed. 1t is
conceded that Morganfeld and Searcey
are partners, and were together at
Washington, Cumberland and other
places, but that Morganfeld's gang was
doing one job while searcey's gang was
doing another. 1t was claimed that
this is the reason the city authorities
contested the action of Manager Fogg
yesterday in trying to attach the
$1,000 for the Adams Express Com
pany.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2o.-The Wash
ington police had several interesting
points to work up to-day in connection
with the Aqua creek train robbery.

A Determined Congregation.

PATERSON, N. j., Oct. 2O.-A large
delegation of parishioners of st. Jo-
seph's Roman Catholic Church, headed
b I Thomas F. Leonard and James Glib
s)n, called at the residence Of the rec
tor, Rev. DIR. Sebastian B. Smith, this
morning to see Mgr. Satolli and present
the views of the congregation, major
ity of whom have signed petition
for DR.. Smiths removal. Arriving at
the door of the pastoral residence, Miss
Carrie Smith, the housekeeper, refused
to allow the Pensioners to enter, say
ing that the papal delegate had given
orders not to allow any of the members
of the congregation to enter. Messrs.
Leonard and Gibson forced the door
open, when the delegation entered the
house. Secretary Pappi appeared aud
Informed the delegation that Mgr. Sa-
;oli could not be seen and advised the
spokesman to call again. Mr.. Leonard
said they would not leave the house till
they had an interview with the papal
delegate. Seeing that it was impossible
to get the crowd out of the house, Sec
rotary Pappi went up stairs and socn
returned with Mgr. Satolli. When the
latter made his appearance he told
the delegation through his interpreter
that the difficulty between DR.. Smith
and his flock had been adjusted and
that there was nothing more to be
heard on the subject. Gibson main
tanned that the matter was not settled.
After leaving the pastoral residence
the delegation marched to the room o
the Catholic Club and decided to hold
a meeting of Pensioners this evening.

They discovered that Searcey, who is
under arrest at Cumberland, Md, stop
ped at cheap lodging house on Penn
sylvania avenue, Washington, Sep
TENDER 18th and Goth, with another
man, and the fact that Morganfield, the
suspect held in Cincinnati, had with
him medicine bottle with the name
of a Washington druggist blown in it,
showed him to the satisfaction of the
police to have been Searcey's compan-
ion. They registered at the lodging
house as c. T. Vivian and c. Airing
ton, Roanoke, Va. Searcey had in his
possession. when captured, pawn
ticket in the name of Arlington. Not
withstanding those clues, the local de-
tectives profess to believe that Searcey
and Morganfeld had nothing to do with
the express robbery, but obtained the
money found on them in recent rob
berry in Baltimore. The officials
of the Adams Express Company
differ with the police in these
views and claim that Secrecy and
Morganfield were with the Aqua
creek gang. To-day the express peo-
pie received information which showed
that articles found on Searcey were TAX
en- from the express car. He had with
him a number of bars of soap, and the
manifest of the goods in the car show
that soap similar to that found in his
valise was among the stolen goods.
There is one thing the express company
officials do not explain, however, and
that is how Searcey and Morganfield
came into the possession of SO much
silver money, in view of the statement
of the express company that there was
no silver in the looted car Sheriff
Kennedy, of Stafford county, Va,
passed through here to-day for Cum
berland with requisition for Searcey.

SATURDAY EVENING. OCT. 90, 1894.
BECAUSE Senator Hill, who wants to

BECAUSE Senator Hill, who wants to
carry New York, and thereby save
democratic Congress and prevent the
republicans from regaining control OF
the national government two years
hence, allowed his name to be printed
on the anti Tammany city ticketin New
York. as well as on the Tammany
ticket, so as to get as many votes as
possible. Mr.. Straus, the Cleveland
candidate for Mayor, has withdrawn.
This was as it should have been. Tam
manv never should have gone outside
of its own organization for its nominee
for Mayor, or any other office. 1t IS
supposed to have majority of the
voters of New York city, and it should
have fought a square fight. Victory
then would have been more glorious
and triumphant, and if it had gone
down with its own colors flying, de-
feat have been less humiliating. The
withdrawal of Mr.. Straus afforded it a
favorable opportunity for correcting the
grave error it made in not being true
to itself in the first place, and, by avail
ing itself of it, and nominating its old
leader. ex-Mayor Grant, it has not only
helped the democratic State ticket, but
united, consolidated and strengthened
itself in favor of its own.
