ADMIRAL. KIRKLAND SAILS.

Washington. Aug. 2O.-Admiral Kirk
land sailed today with the San Francisco
for Havre. France, and it is possible that
the cruiser may continue on to the Medi-
terranean. although it has been thought
by officials here that the Marblehead
would be considered sufficient to protect
American interests. When Admiral Kirk
land was in Asiatic waters before he made
a careful report to the navy department
upon the allegations that outrages had
been committed upon Americans. The re-
port showed that while many rumors were
afoat as to the outrages, he was never
able to find any one who could give def
mite information as to any such affair
or to definitely locate the place where the
alleged outrage took place. II is said at
the state department that Minister Ter
rell is taking every possible precaution
to protect Americans and their property.

MICHIGAN TRAIN ROBBERS.

IhAlN
Grand Rapids, Mich, Aug. 20.-The
fast express, known as the flyer, on the
Chicago and West Michigan road, leaving
Chicago at o'clock and arriving here
at 1910, was he'd up by five men in a
piece of woods just before crossing the
Kalamazoo river at 8 o'clock tonight.
The train was tagged by swinging a
white light across the track and when
it stopped Conductor Rice stepped out
on the platform of the baggage car, and
seeing two of the robbers, asked, "what's
the matter"
The reply was two shots from their
revOlvers. At the same time other shots
were fired into the engineers cab and
moment later two men climbed on the
engine and ordered the engineer and fire.
man to set the brakes and keep quiet.
When the train stopped, the brakeman,
Timothy Murphy of this city, jumped
off the rear platform and started with
a lantern, as required by the rules. The
fifth robber, standing alongside the
coach, fired three shots at him, one Of
which struck Murphy in the side, striking
a rib and glancing out, making a serious
flesh wound. He dropped into the ditch,
where he remained until the robbers had
gone. Conductor Rice, after a bullet
whizzed past his head, retreated to the
baggage car and threw his pocket book
over behind the trunks.
Without demanding admittance the
robbers placed dynamite under the side
door, bleY it off and sprang into the car
with the remark: 1--WE want all you have
got here" They ordered the conductor,
baggageman and express messenger to
throw up their hands and went through
their pockets, taking $40 in change from
the conductor, but finding nothing but
watches on the others. They then tackled
the safe and blew it open in less than
30 seconds. 1t contained no yaluableS,
the messenger having gone out IN the
afternoon, was returning on dead trip.
They took the watches from the engineer
and fireman, but when the conductor said
he would need his watch, it was handed
back, and saying good night the robbers
took to the woods. The passengers, AZ
i'm number were not mOlested.
To make sure of a halt ties had been
placed upon the track half length be-
yond where the train stopped. The tram
men can not give good description of the
robbers. The leader was a heavy man
who wore a full beard, and another was
dressed like farmer. None of them wore
masks, but those who boarded the engine
concealed their features as much as pos
sible Allegan, Ottawa, Van Buren,, Kent
and Kalamazoo sheriffs have been nOti-
fled and officers here say that unless the
robbers have a boat and escape across
Lake Michigan they will be caught.

Tho Order. 10 Our Troops.

In some publications that we have
seen there are intimations that In certain
contingencies the Virginia troops might
crcss the West Virginia line at Pocahon-
tas.
on the contrary. the orders given to
Major Simons are to keep within our
State line, and. without doubt. this
order will be obeyed.
Notwithstanding the fact that Governor
MacCorklc proposed TO Governor o'Ferrail
that these two should act In unison IN
pressing disorder, MacCorkle declined
OFerraIrs proposition for reciprocity ar
rangements by which in case Of threat
cred violence the troops OF either state
might be moved into the other state.
So there's an end o. that. How Mac

Don't Provide for q Third Party.

The Republican party is. OF course not
divided to the extent that the Demo
cratic party Is divided on the silver ques-
ton In the South and the West. both OF
which are Democratic sections. the Re-
pubicans have expected to gain nothing
by making concessions to the siverites'
and so present now, as they have pre-
scented all the time. almost solid front
In favor OF gold monometallism. In those
same sections the Democrats have all
along been strong ia numbers. but di-
vided on the free coinage Of silver-a
measure which commands their support TO
a very large extent.
We cannot see that any pathway to sue
cess lies before the Democrats In the d.
rection we have just mentioned. MT.
Cleveland will be President up 10 March
4. 1897. and would veto any bill for the
free coinage Of silver which might be
presented TO him.
There is. we say. no thoroughfare FOR
the Democrats in'the direction pointed out
by what Mr.. Cleveland styles the silver
monometaliists On the other hand. IL
both the Republican party and the
Democratic party shall declare in 1896 for
gold monometallism. then the presidential
election will see a third party in the heid.
Mr.. Cleveland is spoken OF by some OF the
northern Republicans and Democrats as
the man whom the Democrats must nomi-
nate for President II they wish the battle
10 be fought upon clear-cut issues.
In the mean time the Republicans
everywhere are fomentlng divisions in the
Democratic ranks. They never cease. day
or night the effort TO draw recruits from
the Democratic party In fact. the Re-
publicans seem to regard 1t as settled
that they will succeed In maintaining
a solid monometallic front in their own
party, and at the same time provide ior
a third party-,o be made up almost alto
gether OF dissatisfied Democrats.
The Democratic National Convention
will be held more than year hence.
That is the body which will formulate
a creed for the Democratic party. and
point out the road to success Shall we
forestall its action? Shall we create new
dlsseKions in the Democratic party?
What shall be done with the Democratic
from Virginia all Of whom
are in direct touch with the people. and
have consistently supported the cause Of
the free coinage of silver? We repeat ii.
let us make haste slowly. We have
hoped against hope-but that hope is al
most dead-that an international bme-
tallic conference might be held. and the
silver question taken out Of our politics.
as might easily be done. let the delibe-
rations Of that conference result as they
might.
Again we say to the Democrats. look
ahead. and look well 10 the road in which |
you propose to travel for the next twelve
months
