A MIRACLE WORKER.
Teresa De CoyOra Converts AIexicans
Into Crazy Mob.

Ell PASO, Tex, March PA well-known
Mexican gentleman residing here has re-
ceived letter from his sister in Presidio
Del Norte, Mexico, in which she says:
"a woman calling herself Teresa De
Covora' and claiming to perform miracles
has SO excited the people that they are
simply crazy. The Mexican government or
dered her arrest and the religious fanatics
opposed the order, and as a result one man
was killed in fight at Mulato, and Teofilo
Nasquez, the 'Jefe Polftico,' was wounded"
This is the same Teresa De Covora"
who was the cause of bloody revolt at
which resultec in the Mexican authorities
making the woman leave the country. She
crossed to Nogales, A. T., where, it is
claimed by the Mexicans, she performed
wonderful cures. She disappeared from No
gales and two weeks ago made her appear
ance in the village of E,l Palvo, where four
hundred armed men are protecting her.

WELL-PLANNED HOLD-UP.
Train Robbers Make Small HauI in
the Cripple Creek Country.

VICTOR, Col, March N--Masked robbers
held up the Florence & Cripple Creek south
bound train just outside the city limits last
night, but did not obtain much plunder.
Two robbers boarded the train at Victor.
One entered the sleeper and began imnle-
diately to wake up the passengers and
seize their money and watches He got about
$500 including the Pullman car conductors
receipts. The other robber got on the blind
baggage at Victor and climbed over the
tender into the engine compelling the
engineer to stop the train at point one
and one-half miles south of Victor, where
four or five other robbers were in waiting.
The latter party commenced work on the
mail and express cars and soon had them
open. The robbers were dressed in miners
clothes and wore Slouch hats and masks.
The robbers hurried through with the work,
enforcing their commands with ready dis
play of firearms.
After the robbery the engineer started the
train back to Victor, but the robbers OBJ
jected and commanded the engineer to pull
out south which he did. Immediately all
officials of surrounding towns were notified
by telegraph and the robbers will be given
A special train came in this morning with
the bloodhound that did such good work
at Tbe or to sae
a scent two three times but the officers
put in the whole day without being able to
locate any of the robbers. The train was
fairly well filed, quite a number of ladies
being on board. Besides a large number of
valuable watches, rings and diamonds. about
$1,000 in money was secured. The job was
doubtless done by part of the same gang
that robbed John Hargant the night before
in his cabin here in town. The dog on be-
ing placed on what was supposed to be the
trail of one of the bandits, made straight
shoot for some cabins near the Strong mine
in the outskirts of town.
Tonight Bob Taylor, an ex~deputy sheriff
and an employ of the Strong mine, who
road trouble last summer, and young
man, call 1.-The Kid working for the same
company, were arrested by Constable Lam
legged to answer to the description of the
man who climbed over the tender and held
up the engineer. They were taken to Grip
pie Greek and will be brought back for a
preliminary hearing tomorrow.

The point at which the japanese attempted
to land was Makund, in the southwestern
part of the island of Poughan Makund is
well fortified, and has harbor that admits
vessels of large draught.
LONDON, March A.-A Hong-kong dis
patch to the Times says that inquiries fail
TO confirm the report that the Japanese
made an attack on the island of Formosa.
A Picking dispatch to the Times says that
the first question discussed by the peace
commission at Shimonoseki was in regard
to an armistice. and that no decision was
arrived at The reception of Lii Hung Chang
by the Japanese plenipotentiaries was ia
vorable.
A dispatch to the Times from Kobe, Ja-
pan, says it is rumored there that Lii Hung
Chang has abandoned hope of the success
of the peace negotiations.

INCOME TAX CASE.
Supreme Court Recess To-day; and
Perhana an Interesting Decision.

Perhaps an Interesting Decision.
WASHINGTON. March 24.-The recess of
the United States Supreme Court will ter
inmate on Monday. but Monday is the
day of the week on which the court usually
hands down decisions, there are some who
think that a decision may be given then
on the income tax cases. 1t is understood
that the members of the court have been in
consultation concerning the cases, and while
it would be most unusual for them to come
to a conclusion in so important matter
so soon after the conclusion of the argument
it is suggested that the exigencies of the
government are such that special effort
will be made in the present instance. II is
conceded by those who advance this idea
that is wol'd be too much to expect that
an opinion giving the reasons for a de-
cision could be presented on Monday, but it
is thought possible that the court might
announce its bare decision TO the con-
stitutionality of the law then and reserve
the preparation of the opinion for a time
of greater leisure. This course is occasional
ly pursued toward the end of term but
it is not believed to be at all probable that
it will be followed in the income tax cases.
There will still remain after Monday three
weeks time before the law shall go into ef-
feet and 1t is argued that the decision
might be postponed until the Sth of April
without putting the government to especial
inconvenience. Those most familiar with
the practices of the Supreme Court say that
the court would not be inclined, in a case
of much importance. to announce a de-
cision either favorable or unfavorable to the
law without at the same time giving it's
reasons for IL.
There appears to be a growing belief that
the law will be sustained by the court when
the decision is announced and members OF

about three hundred people present at the
small Arbeiter Hall building to-day, pur-
suant to call of portion of the creditors
of the late Archbishop Purcell, inviting

citation to meet and cooperate with them.
Mr. William List, of Hamilton, presided and
spoke. Other speakers were Mrs. Ellen
,Trempe, of Hamilton, and Rev. ]. A. Lowe,
pastor of the A. r. A. congregation of this
city The tenor of the speeches was a
denunciatory recital of the history OF. the
celebrated Archbishop Purcell failure from
it's start up to the present moment The re-
suit of the meeting was memorial to
Governor Mckinley to his influence to
have law passed prohibiting unincorpor-
ated banking: also the issuing of circular
to members of the Catholic Church giving
a complete history of the Purcell failure
to date which the A. p. A. agrees to print
and circulate broadcast all over the United

fifteen miles west of the town. The shock
was accompanied by a report resembling
the discharge of a blast in mine, accom-
panied by a low rumblng sound. which is
described by some like breaking of ice in

day, after having attended conference
with Count Ito and Viscount Mutsu, the
Japanese peace plenipotentiaries, a young

The attempt to assassnate the represent

The attack on Ii Hung Chang calls to
mind the attempt made on May II, 1891, to
kill the Czarewitch. now the Emperor of
Russia. In November, 1890, the Czarewftch,
in company with his cousin, Prince George,
of Greece, started on tour of the world.
They visited Vienna, Athens, Cairo, Bonn
bay, Calcutta, Madris, Ceylon, Bangkok,
Siam, and various places in China and
Japan. While at Otsu, Japan, the Czarewitch
was attacked by a fanatical Japanese of
ficer with sword and quite severely
wounded. He would in all likelihood, have
been killed had It not been for the bravery
of Prince George, who sprang on the
would-be assassin and felled him to the
ground. The affair caused the greatest ex-
element and the Mikado travelled to Otsu
to visit the Czarewitch and express his re-
gret for the attack 1t had been the inten-
tion of the Czarewitch to return to Russia

A SERIOUS AFFAIR.
Assault ON Lii Hung Chang May Break
Off Peace Negotiations

WASHINGTON, March 24.-The news of
the assault on Ii Hung Chang caused a
sensation in diplomatic circles in this city.
Cases where an envoy of any kind has been
assaulted in the country to which he is
accredited are rare and those in which a
peace commissioner has been attacked are
almost unheard of in modern days. The
opinion here is that Japan will suffer great
ly a consequence of the assault, and
that the position of China will be so
strengthened that she may be able to Sc
cure better terms of peace than she could
otherwise have hoped for. The incident may
lead to the breaking off of peace negotia-
tions, which were proceeding 50 satisfactor-
lily, or at least may postpone further action
in this direction until Japan has guaranteed
the safety of China's ENJOYS and made
proper. reparation.
A recent parallel case is the attack made
by General Count Fuentes, of the Spanish
army, the Moorish ambassador. The lat
ter was to ask Spain to grant Morocco
more time for the payment of the war in
demnity promised for the attacks on the
Spanish at Meilla. General Fuentes be-
came enraged al one of the conferences and
struck the ambassador in the face with his
clinched fist So seriously did the Spanish
government regard the incident that Prime
Minister Sagasta telegraphed a full expla-
nation, coupled with expressions of pro-
found regret, to all the European courts.
4 General FuenteS DAfefy escaped Delng shot,
and will probably be confined for life in
one of the fortresses of the country. The
Moorish ambassador took advantage of the
incident to press for. further delay and Sc
cured it with little trouble
No news of the attack on Ii Hung Chang
has been received by the Japanese legation
here, and Minister kurino was unwilling
to discuss the occurrence The members of
the legation realize that it is serious mat
ter, but hope that the first reports may
prove to be exaggerated. They saw no one
can deplore such an affair more than the
Japanese themselves.
The Chinese legation received prompt
notification of the matter, but their acl-
vices contained nothing not in the press
dispatches. Minister Yang Yu did not care
to discuss the subject. 1t was stated at
the legation that it was not believed that
it would lead to the total breaking off of
the peace negotiations, although il might
cause them TO be interrupted for a time
