ADesperate Fight with Robbers.

Two men made a bold attempt TO
rob the safe of the bartholomew Brew
ing Co.. at Cleveland. One engaged
the bookkeeper while the other slipped
into a rear office and was working at
the safe when discovered. An alarm
was raised and both of the thieves
started down the street and crowd
after them yelling stop thief A
policeman caught one who pulled
revolver and broke away with a pair
of handouts dangling to one wrist.
The fellow ran "A short distance and
turned and fired several shots. The
officer returned the fire but nobody was
hurt. The thief then dashed into a
building and up to the fourth floor
where he was cornered. The fellow
was desperate and knocked down sew
eral men aud threw three out of a
window. Luckily all alighted on
roof one story below. A policeman
arrived and laid the fellow low with a
blow of his fist. The handouts were
snapped into place and the prisoner
taken to the station. The otl6r thief

Turkeys Eeplx Not satisfactory

The reply of the Porte, of Turkey,
to the demand of the powers for re.
forms in Armenia is conciliatory and
on many points agrees with the pow
ers' demands. 1t proposes to appoint
Christian assessors TO assist the Turk
ish provincial government and TO adj
init u proportion of Christians among
the minor officials, police and gen
darmes, and also promises TO restrain
the Kurds from violence. AS it also
declares that some of the powers de-
mands are unacceptable, or impossible
of execution, it is probable that the
powers will not be satisfied with the
reply.
The Anglo-Armenian association S
advices from Constantinoplc says that
lord Salisbury has demanded the un-
conditional and immediate release of
all Armenian political prisoners not
convicted by legally constituted tri-

Several Negroes Fatally Injured.

Spring Valley, ILL.,, the mining town
which was the scene of SO much law
lessness during the miners strike last
year, has again come into notoriety.
At the end of the strike last year a
large number of Negroes were en-
ployed in the places of the strikers.
Recently the Negroes have been COM
hitting depredations upon the whites,
who are mostly Italians, and a few
nights ago Barney Role, white. was
shot by five Negroes and robbed of
500. When the whites heard of this
they demanded that every colored
man be discharged, but this being re-
fused about 500 whites made raid
upon the ''colored location. The
mob ransacked the houses, breaking
furniture and committing other dep
rotations. Several dozen were caught
and treated to most violent kicks;
stones were hurled at them and shots
fired. The boarding house for colored
men was then attacked. All the in
mates fled for their lives. Six men
and two women were fatally injured.
1t is not likely that the colored men
will return.
