Six HIghbinders Beat Woman an
Rob Uar of S3NO

Six Highbinders Beat Woman and
Rob Her of $500.
The IsIeton correspondent of the Rio
Visto NeaCS writes to that paper as fol-
lows:
"Quite a disturbance was started in
Chinatown at ) o'clock Monday morning
by pistol shots and a robbery of China
woman. From reports there were six
Cinnamon connected with the affair.
Three OF them entered the house while
the other three stood guard.
"They bound and gagged the woman
and then took $50 in money from her.
They then carried her trunk TO an adioin-
ing field and broke it open, securing
iewelry and clothing to the amount of
$40. They beat her and almost crippled
her for life. She is an old person, about
90 years of age.
''Constable Ross Hanson started on a
chase as soon as possible, but up to the
present nothing has been heard of the
capture of the rascals. The supposition
is that the men came from Bouldin Island
Chinatown. The Chinawoman's husband
was working on Mrs. Thisby's ranch at
the time.V

TWO TRAIN ROBBERS KILLED.
Disastrous Attempt to Rob Il South
crn Kentucky ExDresS.

CHA AACutuCAy EAIpiCsSs
Greenwood, KY, special: One of the
most daring and at the same time most III
successful attempts at train robbery &C.
Cured in the southern portion of Ken
lucky. when six men undertook to rob a
southbound train on the Queen and Cres-
cent road. One of the six was killed out
right, another died an hour later, and a
third, who gave the name of Miller, lies
here severely wounded. Three have not
been heard from. The train was delayed
not over ten minutes.
The railway and express authorities had
an intimation that the robbery was con-
templated and p. r. Griffin, chief detect
i've of the road, was put on the train with
two trusty assistants. The train had just
reached the south end of the tunnel a mile
north of Greenwood when the robbers
signaled to stop. They had hardly dis
closed their purpose till Griffin and assist
ants began the battle, and three of the
robbers quickly fell before their fire. The
other three fled, and the train proceeded
on its way, after taking up the dead and
wounded robbers. No one on the train
was injured.
1t is supposed the robbers were native
mOuntaineerS and green at the business.
The place where the holding occurred was
in the rugged mountainous portion of the
state, with no houses near.

SOlON HAS NO HONOR.
Sells Seeds Given Him for Distribu.
tion and Will BE lex posed.

Secretary Morton's next annual report
will set out in detail, with names and ac.
companying particulars, the facts in n
transaction which will make interesting
reading. Some weeks ago Mr.. Morton
wrote to the purchasing agent of the seed
division of the Department of Agricul-
ture informing him that members of Con-
grcsS had been charged with disposing Of
their seeds in a way other than was con-
tcmplated by law, and %instructing him to
either verify or disprove these charges 10
the most substantial way.
In less than a week the agent brought
to the Secretary the written order of a
member of the House of Representatives
for his entire quota of seeds, which he
proposed to sell to the departments agent
for $40. The purchase was directed to
be made, and, instead of cash, the agent
gave his check, which was properly in
dorsed by the vender and the money was
withdrawn from bank. SO it happens
that Secretary Morton now has the seeds
issued to this member, turned over on his
written order, and also the check through
which the money was paid, and bearing
the signature Of the member who sold
the seeds.
@Ht oCSililC y Uutu"
ton the name of the Congressman, or to
locate him, but the assurance is given
that the whole transaction, names and
all, will appear in the report as a strik-
ing example of the evil to which the Sec
rotary has SO frequently called the at
tcntion of Congress.
The full quota of seeds furnished a
member of Congress by the department
consists. on an average, of 1,4OO pack
ages of flower seeds, $4,000 of vegetable,
and eighty-two quarts of field seeds,
grasses, etc. The total cost of this quota
to the department is between $225 and
S24o. The department in this transac-
ton got the who'll. lot back for $50.
The Secretary is making an effort to
abolish the free distribution of seeds en-
tircly, for the reason that it has grown
INTO an evil that was never contemplated
When the original law was enacted.

VIOLATED QUARANTINE LAWS.
Carlisle Takes His Son OF a Steam.
er on u Revenue Cutter.


New York special: Collector James
kilberth has received from Surveyor John
G. Mcclure a report of an alleged violation
of the quarantine law committed by the
Secretary of the Treasury, John e.. Car
Isle, the highest official Of the customs de-
partment. The collector, however, posi-
lively refused to make public the contents
of the document.
The trouble has arisen out of the Secre-
tary's anxiety to care for his son The
young man arrived in port on the Ameri-
can Line steamship Paris, after a months
tour abroad. The Secretary went down to
quarantine in the revenue cutter and took
his son off the steamer before the passen-
gers had been inspected by Health Officer
DOty. This constitutes a violation of the
state laws, hence the trouble. Much to the
annoyance of Collector Kilbreth, the mat
ter became public, and he asked Surveyor
Mcclure for a report.
A reporter called on Collector Kilbreth
just after the document had been handed
him, and he was then engaged in persuing
it. He admitted that it was the much
sought after report, but refused to divulge
the contents. Neither would he state what
in the matter was intended.

st. Louis special: The Washington
correspondent of the Globe Democrat
says:
Unless Secretary Gresham's present
frame Of mind changes there will be an
other minister recalled. 1t is the intention
of the Secretary to convey an intimation
to the Spanish Government that Minister
Muruega is persona non grata. The mess
age will not be sent at present,
as it is desired to give Spain
time to make a definite reply to the
demand growing out of the ALBANIA at
fair. But as soon as that is out of the way
Minister Muruaga will have to go. His
extraordinary utterances are the cause of
this determination of the Secretary. 1t
will be remembered that the day after Mr..
Gresham sent his demand to Madrid Muir
uaga expressed his establishment and said
that he could only account for such action
on the ground that it was done by a sick
man who felt feverish.
