PHILADELPHIA, Aug 2i.-The Repub-
lican primaries to select 20 delegates to
the state convention and also TO choose
candidates for various city offices were
held last night The indications are that
the Quay faction has elected rs delegates,
and possibly 22. The anti Quay people
concede She senator l6 votes.
The polls were open from 6 to s p. m,
and the scenes around the various polling
places In districts in which there were
contests recalled an exciting presidential
election. Never before in the history of
the Republican party in this city has there
been such a fight in the primaries. In
many wards almost the full Republican
vote was polled. Although tho contest
was an earnest one, there was very little
disorder, and the few arrests that were
made were for minor oifenses.
The 87 wards Of the city are grouped
into 2S legislative districts, and these
elected from one TO seven delegates each.
A hot fight was made in the Fifteenth
ward, In which Mayor Warwick resides.
Tho mayor was beaten.
Quay seems 60 Have Won.
The Quay people claim TO have carried
81 out Of 52 divisions, with seven in
doubt. II this version of the result is vcri-
fed, Quay will have % delegates from
this city.
Last nights contest practically closes
the fight in the stato Lehigh being the
only remaining county TO elect delegates
IL appears almost certain that Senator
Quay has won his fight for the state chair
manship, with some votes to spare. A
conservative estimate gives him 1863 votes
in the convention, 10 more than the num-
bor necessary to elect. The senator last
night occupied his suit Of rooms in the
Metropolo hotel, and a constant stream OF
visitors passed In and out congratulating
him. He declined to be interviewed, say
ing that he would not speak for publica-
tiOn until after the convention, which
meets mt Harrisburg on Aug. 2S. Tho
contest attracted to the city politicians Of
all degrees from all over the state. These
crowded the headquarters of the two fac
tions and eagerly watched the returns.

TWO TRAIN ROBBERIES
One Was an Express Between
Chicago and Grand Rapids.
THE OTHER WAS OUT IN NEBRASKA

In the First Instance the Bandits Used Dy-
Mantle and Blew Open an Empty Safe,
While In the Latter the Train Was Loot
ed In Jesse james Style.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Aug. 21.-The
fast express known as the flyer on the
Chicago and West Michigan road, leaving
Chicago at 8 o'clock and arriving here at
1910, was held up by five men in piece
Of woods just before crossing the kalama-
ZOO river at 9 o'clock last night.
The train was tagged by swinging a
white light across the track and when it
stopped Conductor E E. Rice of this city
stepped out on the platform Of the bag.
gage car, and, seeing two Of the robbers
asked, whats the matter?" Tho 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 Or
dered the engineer and fireman 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 back with a
lantern, as required by the rules. The
fifth robber, standing alongside the coach,
fired three shots at the brakeman, one Of
which hit him in the side, struck a rib
and glanced out, making a serious flesh
wound. He dropped into the ditch, whore
he remained until the robbers had gone.
Robbers Used Dynamite.
Conductor Rice, after bullet whizzcd
past his head, retreated to the baggage
car and threw his pocketbook over behind
the trunks. Without demanding admis-
sion, the robbers placed dynamite under
the side door, blew it off and sprang into
tho car with the remark, "Wo want all
you've got here"
They ordered the conductor, baggage
man and express messenger TO throw up
their hands and went through their pock
cts, taking all except the watches They
then tackled the safe and blew it open in
less than 80 seconds. It contained no val
uables. Tho messenger, having gone out
in the afternoon, was returning on a
dead" trip They took watches from the
engineer and fireman, but when the con
ductor said nc would need his watch it
was handed back TO him. and saying good
night the robbers took TO the woods. The
passengers--42 of them--were not mo-
lestod.
To make sure Of halt ties had been
piled on tho track half length of where
the engine stopped. The baggage car was
not disabled, and the train proceeded.
The trainmen cannot give a good de-
scription of the robbers The leader was
n heavy man, who wore full beard and
another was dressed like farmer.

you met me, now l have a revolver for
you, and then he fired"
When Hopkins finished the Judge asked
burns counsel, Mr.. Heath, II he desired
20 cross examine Hopkins, and he re-
Piled that he did not. The judge then said
that Burns would be placed under &c.
600 bonds, $4,000 to keep the peace and
$4,000 to appear before the grand Jury in
September. In default of bail Burns was
committed to jail after eating hearty
dinner at Viewers.
Burns and Hopkins were In business
together until three or four months ago,
when unfriendly relations ended their
association in business, and have since
existed between them. Not long ago a
trial was held before the probate court
on guardianship case, when Burns en-
deavored to have Hopkins removed as
guardian of Mrs. Keaton, aunt of Mrs.
Hopkins.
The Journal readers will remember
Burns as the man who sold imported
liquors in the original packagets in def
ance of the prohibitory law and fought the
case through to the United States su-
preme court
In the afternoon Journal reporter
called at the jail to see him. He would
not talk of the shooting further than to
say that he was sorry it occurred. His
lawyer had advised him not to talk for
publication. He seemed sanguine about
getting bonds.
In the afternoon, Judge Andrews said
he did not know but what Burns used the
word "shoot" instead of :" kill, =" but he
understood 1t to mean "shoot" in the
sense of kill" The judge said he was
writing when Burns came in and threw
down the revolver, and then didn't think
that Burns had really shot anyone. When
he asked Burns what he shot Hopkins for,
Burns made an answer that the judge
thought peculiar. "He bought a revolver
to kill me, and I'm tired Of living"
During the whole time he said Burns
didn't show the least sign of excitement.
1t was 10 minutes before a policeman
came into the judges office.

Mr.. HOPKINS
Talks Freely With Journal Reporter Con.
corning His Trouble With Burns.

Harry Hopkins was seen by Journal
reporter, yesterday afternoon, and gave his
version of the shooting ARRAY, which did
not differ from the report of tho affair
published elsewhere in this issue. He said
that he had been convinced for some time
that Burns intended to do him bodily
harm. Ever since the decision against
him in the probate court, Burns had
been in quarrelsome frame of mind, and
his frequent exhibitions of temper had
caused Mr.. Hopkins to be in constant fear
of him. Some two months ago, Mr..
Hopkins says that he went to Judge An
drews and told him of his apprehensions
bonds to keep tho peace. He told the
Judge of angry talk that Burns had made
to him, but his honor did not think that
threat had been made.
Last Saturday, Mr.. Hopkins said, Burns
came into his shop and went behind the
counter Hopkins asked him what he
wanted and Burns replied:
"Those receipts you stole from me, " re-
ferring to American Express receipts for
money sent by Burns for Mrs. Conner.
Hopkins replied 1.-THE receipts should
be on the file, Mike; but it doesn't make
any difference, though. I'll swear that
you sent the money, and that l saw the
receipts
Burns was very angry, and running the
receipts over hastily, threw them down,
remarking with an oath:
"I'll bury you before Pm through with
you"
To this MI Hopkins says he replied
II guess likely you WILL the way you've
been worrying me Of late.
Burns then left the store Hopkins says
that he Immediately put the bunch OF
receipts upon the counter, and in the pres
ence of some four or five persons who were
present, had no difficulty In finding the
receipts Burns had been looking for
Taxing bne Wloio puhuiO Va hOeSiPo'' IN
went to Judge Andrews office and stated
the details of Burns visit and again asked
that Mike be put under bonds to keep tht
peace.
The Judge said: But Burns says yor
have threatened him."
"If you believe that, Judge" said Mr.
Hopkins, "why not put US both undel
bonds to keep the peace? will make nj
objection. All want is protection.
The Judge decided to have hearing up
on the matter, Monday forenoon. Yester
day morning, as Hopkins was unlocking
the door of his saloon, he says Burn
came along and some angry words passe'
between them Hopkins immodiatel.
went to the office of Judge Andrews t
uree again that Burns be put under bond
to keep the peace. 1t was upon his return
that Burns met him and the shooting oc
Cured.
The above Is, In substance, the stor.
told the Journal man by Mr.. Hopkins
He said that he anticipated bodily barr
from Burns, but never expected that
would undertake to shoot him down i
cold blond
