MORE TRAIN ROBBERS.
This Time They Hold Up a Train
in Missouri.
TWO MASKED MEN DO THE WORK.

They Secured Only the Contents Of tho
Local Safe, Amounting to Several Hun
bred Dollars issuaded from Using Dy-
Mantle on the Through Safe.
MoNETT, NO., Nov. 1S-Frisco passen.
ger train No. !, due here at 8 o'clock last
night, was held up four miles east Of
Monet by two masked men, and the OK
press car robbed. The amount secured Is
not known, but is several hundred dollars,
including all local money between Spring
Held and this place. The train was in
charge Of Conductor Frank wightman.
Engineer Stevenson, Express Messenger
A, N. Chapman, Mail Clerks J, A. Strong
and w. w. Dugger. y..5
The robbers boarded the front end Of the
mail car, which was next to the tender, at
Verona, and after the train started they
crawled to the engine and commanded the
engineer to run to a certain point and
stop. After firing pistol they got off the
engine and compelled the engineer to fol-
low them. Mistaking the mail car for the
express car, they demanded admittance of
the clerk, but on being informed of their
error they proceeded to the express car.
BY this time Mr.. Chapman had his gun
IN readiness and was about to fire when
Engineer Stevenson requested him to de-
sist, as he was In front OF the robbers. The
robbers then compelled Chapman to give
up the keys. The local safe was opened
and rifled of its contents. They then de-
manded that Chapman open the large safe
and on being informed that 1t was impos-
sible for him to do so they brandished a
stick of dynamite and threatened to blow
up the car. The messenger finally pre-
vailed upon them not to attempt it, con.
vincing them that even II they did SO it
was not probable that the safe would be
blown open.
After securing their booty the robbers
started westward. No horses were seen,
although it is quite certain they had ami
mails at convenient distance
The only disguise worn was a white
handkerchief over the face, with holes cut
for the eyes. ."
The passengers were not disturbed

II seems that the Republicans Of New
Jersey are troubled with superabund.
ance Of candidates for eie elton to the U
s. Senate Ia place OF Mr. MACPHERSON,
whose term has expired. There are four
aspirants but thus far we have not hear d
that any one OF them has been denounced
by any Republican, or the disruption of
the party threatened liz consequence of
the election Of either of them. There Is
friendly rivalry among them, and the dis
appointed will cheerfully acquiesce In the
choice OF majority OF the mem bers Of
the Legislature. The same feeling Should
prevail In every State and peace and har-
mony counseled.
The members OF the Legislature will Ger.
tainly be Influenced in the selection by the
wishes Of their constituents, for II they
disregard them they will very likely not
have the opportunity to occupy a similar
position for long time to come. What
ever may be the result the party should
not be punished, but the erring represent.
alive should suffer the consequence OF his
disregard OF public sentiment. The inter.
ested parties who think they stand should
take heed lest they fall. ss the stone which
the builders reject may become the head
OF the corner
The members from Now Castle county
arc very nearly unit in their preference
for tile Senator, and II the Sussex County
Representatives agree with them there
will be no difficulty in making selection,
but possibly they may support another
asplrant. 10 which event the member from
Kent will be called into decide the con-
test and being forewarned they must
take the responsibility OF their own ao-
tlon and be accountable for the result.
Lot them look we'll to their ways, and to
the influence thelr decision may have on
future contests.

Business is gradually improving and
we shall soon get back to normal condi.
lions. The result OF the elections has
given the people confidence In the stabll-
lily OF our affairs, and every one feels that
he can go ahead without fear OF further
decline in values. Stocks have ad vanced
In price along the whole line, and there
Is better demand for Investments than
there has been at any time since Mr..
Cleveland's election. We are sure this is
good news for all tradesmsn as well as
for laborers aud mechanics. including
their wives aud little ones. Free trade
has been eifectually scotched and In two
years from this it will be killed as dead as
a door nail.
Silver dollar Bland as well as free trade
Wilson. and other QuiXotieal leaders will
pass of tile stage OF action and their
places will be occupied by the true friends
OF our working people, and henceforth
we shall have plenty OF work and plenty
OF money to buy the cloth and the blank.
cts they may make instead Of standing
idle and allowing foreigners to make
them for us. When the good times return
as return they must, we hope the working
eople will hold on and not try another
suicidal experiment as they did two years
ago. The working people must stand by
the protective system and the men who
stand by them II they wish TO prosper.
