''We were i'll bed and asleep when the
train stopped and the firing began. The
porter came through the car to say that
it was a hold up, and caution the pas
sengers to conceal their Doodle. I had
been on collecting trip, and had about
81 200 in cash with me. I knew I'd
have to make show if any of the gang
came in, and so got that money out of
my shirt pocket and divided it up. I
was perfectly willing to give up $50 or
$50 to save the rest. I sat on the edge of
my bunk for 90 minutes and held that
portion Of the Doodle was going to

TIE NESSAGE.

The annual message of the president,
submitted to congress today, and which
will be found elsewhere in this
paper, is substantially in accordance with
what has been previously outlined
In relation to the Waller matter he
says that, although the records of the
trial reached France in October, the
American minister has been unable to
obtain them, France refusing on the
ground that such a course would estab-
lish a bad precedent He expresses
belief, however, which, for its hopeful
ness is worthy of M. Carlisle, that it
will come out all right. Nothing is said,
however, to indicate how.
Our diminished foreign trade is covert
ly attributed to our tariff restrictions, and
he says it can be easily remedied, but
does not suggest the way.
The message clearly indicates pur-
pose to stand by the Monroe doctrine
and says that a communication regard
ing the Venezuelan matter was sent to
Great Britain in July, the terms of which
were based on that principle. No reply
has yet been received, he says. but when
it comes he will communicate further
with congress.
Nothing is said which can be interprs-
ted as favoring interference in Cuba or
change of relations to Hawaii.
The portion of the message devoted to
the currency question is mainly taken
up with an attempt at justification of his
past course, particularly as regards the
issuance of bonds. We are now, how
ever, he says, about where we were at
the time the last bond issue was made.
The substance of his recommendations
for relief is embodied in the following
words: II am convinced the only thor
ough and practicable remedy for our
troubles is found in the retirement and
cancellation of our g. S. notes commonly
called green backss and the outstanding
treasury notes issued in payment of sill
yer purchases under the act of 1890"
The Withdrawals of gold are attribu
ted to fright. 1t is denied that the pro-
ceeds of bond sales have been used to
pay expenses.
The converting of silver in to fraction
al coin is recommended and such Iegis,
lation as Will place the volume of cur
rency in the hands of the banks.
The president makes an earnest pro-
test against free coinage of silver and in
Inmates that he will join with congress in
| almost any measure which will prevent
it The message is in full accord with
the views hitherto expressed by the
members Of the cabinet and indicates
that Mir. Cleveland has his subordinates
well in hand.

THE Republican bosses who have not
only elected Tom Reed to the speaker
ship of the national house but also have
him slated for the presidency are pre-
pairing to control the sentiment of the
convention as well as it's nomiD alton
In order to do this new apportionment
rule is proposed and instead of fixing
the number of delegates to which each
state is entitled in accordance with its
representation in congress it is suggest
ed that the apportionment be based on
the number of Republican votes cast.
While Kansas would have no reason to
complain on her own account, her re pre-
sentation being increased by II dele
gates, the effect on the whole body can
be seen when it is noted that New York
and Pennsylvania, the homes of Plat
and Quay, the men who expect to con-
troll the convention, have their joint rep
resentation increased SO votes. At the
same time the southern states sustain a
loss of 20 delegates.
