Tulare, CAL, March 21.-Two officers
were shot and a train rObber named
UMntel McCOle was killed in an Mt
tempt to hold up the south-bound New
orleans express near here at 3 o'clock
This morning. The attempted robbery
was one of the most daring that has
taken place in California, aud prob
ably would have succeeded IL It had
not been for the perfidy Of one of the
robbers. Last night the officers in this
city were informed that an attempt
would be made early this morning to
hold up the Sunset limited. The man
who gave the information gave the
details of the plot, and said that Mt
ilrst he intended to take part in It.
Under Sheriff Earl Daggert and Con.
stable Reed, armed with shotguns
went to the place ut which the robbery
was to take place and awaited the ,,p-
proach of the robbers. The robbers
changed their plans, however, and de-
cided to hold up the New Orleans ex-
press. Three bandits boarded the train
ut Selma. two climbing on the rear Of
the baggage cur and the other one OH
the tender. AS the train pulled out
OF Goshen the robber who had be-
trayed his companions left the train
without their knowing it. rushed into
the telegraph office and told the ope-
lator to tell the sheriff and his party
that the robbers had changed their
plans. The sheriff fastened back to
meet the train and boarded it ut Ia
gus. The robbers did not intend to
make their presence known until the
train had pulled out from the station,
but the officers saw the men and
opened fire. The bandits returned the
volley and Sheriff Daggert was shot
through the lungs, sustaining a wound
that will probably prove fatal. Con-
stable Reed was shot in the shoulder.
McCole. who is believed to have been
one of the Dalton gang. was killed.
The other robber escaped.
Oficers arrested Louern, keeper of Il
notorious deadfall, ind also Charles
Ardell. q barkeeper. John Haynes, a
member of the Salvation Army. sup
posed to be member of the gang,
was also arrested. Other members V
the gang are still at large.

brlef speeches were made by all the
senator's present. They defined their
position in such q manner "A to make
1t plain to the manufacturers that
there could be no protective tariff leg

ana protection as regarded from, their
standpoint, constituted an indiyisible
issue before the country.
Some Of the manufacturers them-
selves Endorsed this position as being
the logic Of the country's necessities
and political conditions. Others de-
clared themselves in favor of the res
toration Of silver, but thought that
the cause of bimetallism was not nd
Vanced by the defeat of the revenue
measure.
Senators expressed the opinion that

There is. apparently keen rivalry
between New York and Chicago as to
which can establish the worst police
record. In the former city the crooks
are in almost complete command Of
the situation, while in Chicago there
are not only holdups and burglaries Of
daily occurrence, but train robbers
make their plans to operate in the very
heart OF the city. Too much energy is
wasted on petty offenders and politics
has entirely too much to do with the
summing Of the departments.
