entries are Director, Kremlin, Arion and
Nelson. Many horsemen express the
opinion that Nelson will not start. If he
doesn't his owner will forfeit $50 1t is
to be hoped, however, that he will start,
and if he does he will carry with him the
well-wishes and the hard dollars of Maine
horsemen.
At the Augusta races last Thursday the
black stallion Harmoun was taken sick
and fell on the track. He died in the
evening. Harmoun was only eight years
old and a very promising stallion. He
was owned by j, NJ. Ridlon, of Bucksport.
He was sired by Matchmaker out OF Pilot
Knox His speed limit had by no means
been reached, and this year he was to
have been started in nearly every impor-
tant event in Maine. He was in a fair
way to be a great money maker, as he
had only been given a mark of 2:2SM
he was being trained and handled by F.
r. Noble. The half mile record of the
Bluehill track, 1:12h, was made by Har-
noun last year.

with only two hills. Eastman covered the
distance i'll thirty minutes. Whitney
gave up beaten half way over the course.

TWO MEN KILLED,
Bloody Battle Between Indiana
Coal Miners and Armed
Strikers.
Deputies Stationed at the Mines
Disarmed and Driven
Away.

EVANSVILLE, Ind, May 24.-News
has been received in this city OF serious
trouble at Little's coal mines at Littles
Station, on the Evansville and Indian
apolis road. Two hundred and fifty
miners from Washington and other
mines in Davies and Pike counties,
armed with Winchester rifles and a
load Of ammunition, marched 20 Little's
mines for the purpose of compelling the
force at work at that point to
join in the strike. A battle
occurred about 5 o'clock between
the strikers and those who have contin-
ued at work, in which two men were
killed and five wounded. For some
days past deputy sheriffs have been sta
toned as guards at the mines, but they
were disarmed and driven away by the
strikers. The strikers evidently intend
to remain at Littles, as they have gone
into camp and brought about gu days
provisions with them. It is expected
that the militia from this, city will be
ordered to the scene.

MESSRS. HILL AND IRBY In LINE.
Major BUTTE Again Before the
Bribery Investigating
Committee.

I WASHINGTON. May Ex-senator Cor.
mans speech was the feature of the
days session. Mr.. German and Mr..
Brice have been credited by the opposi-
ton with the authorship OF the compro-
mise amendments which consolidated
the Democratic side, and Mr.. German,
especially, has been subjected to much
criticism both in and out Of the senate.
His speech, replying in measure to
him, explaining the necessity for the
compromise and defining the theory
upon which the modified bill now be-
fore the senate was constructed, at.
tracted intense interest. It was re-
garded as an exceedingly able exposi-
ton of the position of the conservatives.
Mr.. Gor1nan's speech
Furnished the Texts
for the Republicans for the remainder
of the day. His statement that a ma
jority of the senate would support the
bill was put to the test by Mr.. Teller,
whose purpose was to ''smoke OUT any
latent opposition on the Democratic
side. Mr.. Germans statement was
justified by the vote, however, as the
Colorado senator's motion to lay the
tariff bill On the table Was met by an
unbroken Democratic front. Both SEN
ator Hill of New York and Senator
lrby, whose positions have leen the
subject OF gossip from time to time,
voted with their Democratic associates,
as did the three Populists, including
Mr.. PETER.

a TEXAS ROBBERY.
Bold Gang Of Desperadoes Loot
the First National Bank Of
Longview.
ToWNsMEN TO THE RESCUE.
Number Of Persons Killed and
Wounded in the Battle That
Followed. g..

LoNGv1Ew, Tex, May 24.-At 8 p. m.
five robbers held up the First National
bank of Longview. The president and
cashier were ordered to throw up their
hands and the robbers secured $4,000.
Several officers and citizens met the
robbers and a constant firing was kept
up, during which George Buckingham
and j. W. Mcqueen were killed and
City Marshal Muckley badly wounded.
One Of the robber was also killed. Over
200 shots were fired. The remaining
robbers escaped with the dead mans
horse and large posse is in close pur-
suit.
At 3 p. m. two rough looking men
entered the bank. One compelled Pres
ident Joe Clemmons to hold up his
hands while the other rushed through
the wire door at the side and grabbed
the cashier, Tom Clemmons. The other
bank officials were ordered to hold up
their hands. The robbers
Hurriedly Emptied the Vaults,
securing $4,000. While this was going
on two of the robbers were in the rear
alley of the bank, shooting at every one
that appeared and were being fired on
by City Marshal Muckley and Deputy
Will Stevens. The firing made the rob
hers in the bank very nervous and they
hurried the lank officials out and told
them to run to the horses and to mount.
This was done in order to keep the posse
from shooting, but, as the bullets flew
thick and fast, the Tank men tore loose
and ran around the corner with several
shots after them. George Buckingham,
who Was shooting at the robbers, was
shot and killed. City Marshal Muckley,
who Was shooting at another robber,
received a Winchester ball in the bow
els. j. W. Mcqueen, a saloonkeeper,
hearing the shots, ran out in the alley
and
Was Shot in the Body
and it is thought was mortally wound
ed. Charles S. Leonard was walking
through the courthouse yard and was
shot in the leg, necessitating amputa-
ton. Theodore So1ners was shot in the
left hand. Deputy Will Stevens Was
not hurt, though he stood in short
ge and killed one Of the robbers.
The robbers rode rapidly out of town,
displaying their firearms and the money
they had secured. An armed posse was
soon in pursuit and when last heard of
was only Is minutes behind them. The
bank officers offer $500 for their arrest
dead or alive, and the citizens supple
mented the amount by $500.
Deputy John Howard was shot at Is
times, tut was not hurt. He emptied
his pistol several times and wounded
one Of the Others in the face.
