ASHLAND or, May 1.-THE stage
bound from Ager to klamath Falls was
o'clock last night at the foot Of Topsy
grade, five miles east of Shovel Creek
Springs. The robber was not in sight,
but gave orders from ambush to Ed
Walters, the driver, to throw out the let
ter pouches and express box. The driver
and two passengers were then ordered to
dismounI. The passengers were John
Wells, well-known klamath stockman
and County Commissioner, and Emanuel
Cora, merchant at Picard. Siskiyou
County, Cal.
After they had been ordered to empty
their pockets, the former was directed to
cut open the letter pouches and the latter
to break open the express box, and leave
the contents beside the road. Cora was
too slow in his work, and the robber
directed the driver to finish the job with
the stage ak, after which the cool high
wayman ordered them aboard and off.
Little cash was secured from the pas
sengers, but it is not known what was
obtained from the letters or express box.
The hold-up was within few hundred
feet Of whore the same stage was held up
month ago, and there is little doubt that
the same lone highwayman did the work,
as it was executed almost identically in
the same manner. Wells-Fargo with
drew from this route for some time, but
had established their service over it
again year or more ago, since which
time there have been hoid-ups more
numerous than ever.

TRADE REVIEW,

Conditions throughout the Country
Continue Quite Favorable.
New YORK, May T.-Bradstreets to-
morrow will say: General trade condI-
tions throughout the country continue in
the main quite favorable. Activity in
speculative and investment circles has
exceeded that in merchandise lines, but
the gains made in the latter have in
nearly all instances been retained.
Woolen manufacturers are not anticipat-
ing wants, as prices for wool at the in-
terror are above parity with quotations
at the seaboard, and lower prices are
looked 1or. Heaviest transactions con-
tinue in Australias. The weather has re-
tarded shearing. Rhode Island weolen
manufacturers say the demand is largely
Tor the cheaper grades. Business at Pitts
burg has been stimulated by the ad-
vances and greater activity in iron and
steel, but Philadelphia does not appear
to have fully shared in this. The most
noticeable improvement is at Baltimore,
being in dry goods and shoes. Among
southern cities an improvement in trade
is reported and the outlook favorable.
Exports OF wheat from the United
States and from Montreal this week (tiour

group. in which 1t was mentioned that a
report had got out abroad among the
natives that Thurston was for the restora-
ton of the ex-Queen. The AdUertfser
dismissed the report in two lines. When
it came to the attention of officials here
they regarded it as a joke. and one
of them said that the intelligence and in
formation prevailing among the natives
of Maui was such that they would accept
as true report that Thurston had mar

appears as private advices, alt hough off

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1.-THE news
that there will be no more racing in
Chicago has stimulated the game in San
Francisco, and Ghere will probably be a
lively season here. Races are at present
running at the Bay District track under
the management of the California Jockey
Club, and large force OF men is at work
on the new COrrigan track at Oceanside,
which is to be opened in the fall. 1t is
doubtful if San Francisco will support
two tracks, but the experiment is to be
tried.
r. H. Williams, the head of the Cali
fornia Jockey Club, was frozen out by
the Corrigan people in the new track
scheme, and he is now determined to
fight the Eastern men who are trying to
control racing on the Pacific Coast. Will
Jams is millionaire himself, and he is
backed by James l.. Flood, heir to the
Flood millions, and Dan Burns, who has
an enormous income from his Mexican
mines. Williams will leave for the East
in few days to persuade the big Eastern
horse owners to come out here and race
on his track, where they will be given
rich purses and be free from Interference

the four sailors of the vessel lay sound

died. When they jumped to their feet
they looked down the barrels of revolvers
in the hands of six or seven men, The
sailors were ordered to put on their
clothes as quickly as possible, and not to
utter word. After dressing they were
forced at the point OF the pistols to get
into large boat at the stern of the ship.
The Webfoots crew realized that they
were being kidnapped by union sailors,
and offered no resistance. They were
taken to San Pedro and put aboard the
morning train. A union man accompa-
MED them to this city.
The sailors upon reaching Los Ange-
les told the union men that they should
like to go to Redondo and get their pay.
The fellow said this would be all right,
and his offer to see them on the right
train, they being strangers here, was ac-
cepted. They did not go to Redondo,
however, for the man put them aboard
terminal train, which carried them to
South Pasadena. They had no money,
and their passage was paid only to that
point. Three OF them walked to this
city, the fourth becoming separated from
his companions, and the police returned
them to Redondo.
1t Is feared there will be trouble when
an effort is made to put them back on
