Protection for Him.
New York, Dec. 24.-Henry Delgado, an
American citizen, the news of whose cap
ture in Cuban hospital by Spanish
troops was confirmed this morning, is
special correspondent of the Mail and
Express, detailed two months ago to join
the insurgent army in Pinar del Rio. The
correspondent, who was landed in Cuba
by one of the expeditions from this coun-
try, went strictly in his capacity as a
news commissioner for the purpose of
telling the truth just as he found it. When
he left here he carried letters of introduce
tion to Maceo and another Cuban gen
eral When captured these letters were
found on him, together with an order

TWO FAILURES OF 'GE BANKS

Cheerty Failures.

New York, sSc. 24-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will { 81 The arrival of the holl-
days. the close of the year and the period
of annual stock taking have further
checked the volume of the wholesale
business Only illing-in orders are be-
ing received and trade is slow. Retail
demand for holiday goods has been ac-
tive, but it is for cheaper grades than in
previous years. In other lines the distri-
button of merchandise has been smaller
at a number of distributing centers.
Failures of important banking institu-
tons at northwestern cities tend to un-
settle confidence in commercial and bank
ing circles. The moderate trade revival
which followed the last presidential cleo
tion has been disappointing in that, aside
from the Christmas demand, business has
been more unsatisfactory for a month
past than at a corresponding period in
many years. The confidence with which
merchants end manufacturers have been
looking forward to the arrival OF the de-
layed trade revival early in February
next is less pronounced than 1t was, while
the prospect for Legislation next spring
and summer looking to tariff revision
and congressional anxiety to take charge
of affairs abroad, is more than likely to
put off a permanent revival in business
here until next fall.
The shake-up decision and the steel
prices is nearly complete, and quotations
for Bessemer pig iron and for steel blllets
have gotten down to the level of those
for other staples. The break last week
precipitated speculation in Bessemer pig
iron and billets and large purchases for
an advance and for consumption have
been made-more than 300. 900 tons of bill
let's, some of it as low as SIS, a drop Of
So ton. The billet pool has been patch
ed up nominally. Bessemer pig, which
went off to $10.50 on the break and on the
prospect of readjustment of costs, is
firmer, and has sold at $11. Anxiety is
felt In the iron and steel trade as to the
uncertainty of the price of lake ore under
the new combination to control that sta
pie. Pittsburg concern Is shipping g.
900 tons of sheet bars to the United
Kingdom and southern pig iron furnaces
report further sales in England
Freer receipts of cotton tend to encour-
age high crop views and account for the
reaction in prices. Lard and petroleum
are represented for wheat -four, sugar,
pork and coffee, as we'll as for print
cloths.
Manufacturers of wool have not opened
heavyweight samples yet and are not
inclined to buy raw materials except to
complete orders in hand. Some Massa-
chusetts mills have booked fair spring
orders, but the industry in Rhode Island
does not appear to be so we'll situated,
and two large mills expect to shut down
soon.
There were 27S business failures re-
ported throughout the United States this
week, 81 less than last week and IL more
than in the corresponding week a year
ago.

gine SO that it could not be used and
then deserted it,
At 1:30 O'Clock this morning the passen-
ger coaches were still standing where
the robbers had left them when they cut
the train in two
At 2:30 o'clock the express car was
brought back to Independence and Ex-
press Messenger Frier told the story of
the robbery. Messenger Frier says that
the money in the smaller safe ran way up
into thousands, and that the big safe had
more money and valuables than 1t usu-
ally carried.
A relief train was sent from Kansas
City and brought the stranded train into
Independence at 2:30 o'clock. Engineer
Meade insists that there were but three
bandits, and says they are the same men
who held up his train on the night of
October 90. Ed Lewis, superintendent
of the United States Express company
here, states in positive terms that the
large safe was not blown open.
The train arrived here at lis o'clock
this afternoon, and Express Messenger
Frier was interviewed by reporter.
He said that the big safe, which was
consigned through from the Pacific coast
to Chicago, was not robbed. One of the
robbers placed gun at Frier's head and
ordered him to hold up his hands. The
robbers then secured the keys of the
small safe from Friers pockets and
ordered him to hold up his hands, and
sisting of great deal of jewelry and
considerable money The robbers de-
manded that Frier open the time lock
on the big safe, but were finally persuad-
ed by him that such an Accomplishment
was impossible, at which they began to
drill a hole and prepare dynamite
stick. Frier argued that their efforts
would be futile, as the safe contained
nothing of value, and finally he per-
suaded them to let 1t alone.
Frier says that in the money secured
from the small safe was a quantity OF
gold, ten and twenty dollar pieces, ana
that one of the men declared: That's the
kind of stuff we are after"
The robbers finally declared that they
must step out as time was pressing, and
jumping from the car ran to the engine
and started it down the track to point
about a mile below Glendale station,
where they alighted and disappeared in
the woods.
When the passengers in the train
learned that the express car was being
robbed they became greatly excited, but
nobody ventured out of the cars. In the
Pullman coach, which contained one lady
and four gentlemen passengers, there
was great confusion. The vestibule doors
were locked and the shades drawn, While
the passengers hid their money and jew
elry in every conceivable place of safety
From the familiar manner in which the
express car was uncoupled and the loco
motive handled, the express oInclals pe-
lieve that the robbers were former rail-
way employees and understood the nature
of the train and the fact that 1t ordinari-
ly carried large amount of money in
the express car.
Messenger Frier insists that so far as
he could see there were but three men
engaged in the robbery, all of whom were
masked and armed Superintendent Will
hanson declares that the amount of
money secured by the robbers Is small,
and at a wide estimate, will not reach
$1,000.

A LAGRANGE, GA, TRAGEDY.

Atlanta, Ca, Dec. PA special from
LAGRANGE, Ca, to the Constitution says
that Douglass Cooper killed Claude Dun
son there this afternoon. The tragedy,
which was unprovoked, occurred on the
public square. Cooper fled, and has not
been captured. He was the manager of
his fathers mercantile business. He had
a quarrel with negro customer and or
dered him out of the store. The negro
walked away cursing. Cooper followed
him and on overtaking him was about
to draw pistol when Dunson, who was
standing by, caught his arm and ap-
pealed to him not to shoot the negro.
Cooper struck Dunson and knocked his
hat off. AS Dunson stopped to pick 1t
UP Cooper shot him through the head,
killing him. They had been friends.
Cooper leaped on a countryman's horse
which was standing near and rode off
rapidly. After riding short distance
from the town Cooper jumped off and
took to the woods. The sheriff and posse
are after him. Dunson was a young
merchant, and had relatives all over the
state.
