RIOT OF IMMIGRANTS.
alians Who Are to be Deported
Try to Escape from Ellis
Island.

New York, April LIT was one con-
tinuous round of excitement yesterday
on Ellis island. Thrice large body of
Italians, held for deportation, made des-
perate attempts to escape from their
place of Imprisonment, and but for the
courage and alertness of the few keep
ers and inspectors who had them in
charge, riot and bloodshed might have
resulted. 1t was shortly after 10 o'clock
when the first outbreak occurred. There
were 25O strengthening customers,
mostly Italians, shut inside the 'TO be
deported" pen on the second floor of the
main building. Suddenly there was a
murmur among them. 1t increased to a
growl and to Il howl of defiance and
rage. Hundreds of sunburned, dirty
hands tried to tear open the wirework
of the pen. 1t began to BEND and in
a moment more would have given way
had not the keepers rushed up and down
outside, pounding the protruding fingers.
Just when all seemed peace, the Ari-
IONA, which takes the immigrants from
Ellis island to the Battery, steamed in.
AS the released immigrants ran to board
her, some of them shouted to the throng
of detained" In Il moment all was ex
element again. A fierce rush was made.
Savage blows were struck at the officials
and more than one knife was drawn.
The officials went at the undiSciplined
mob fiercely, and after few minutes
fighting the little knot of breathless Off
GERS had the crowd Subdued.

Lebanon, Mo-, April 1.-The eastbound
cannon ball train No 6 on the st. Louis
& San Francisco railway was held up
three miles from this city at / :05 this

The robbers boarded the train at this
place at 1880 a. M. and after reaching
the scene of the robbery held up the
engineer and fireman, stopped the train
and, with the engineer in front of Them
marched to the express car. The mes
senger refused to open up and the door
was blown open with dynamite, the safe
cracked and it's contents removed. Sew
eral packages of valuable papers were
found this morning beside the track, also
money which had been overlooked in
the hurry of departure. The passen-
gers were not molested. The engine was
detached and run by the robbers to
Sleeper, where it was abandoned. The
brakeman hurried back to the city and
track of the robbers.
While the amount of money secured
by the robbers is known to have been
considerable, the local express officials
will not place an estimate on it.

Fargo officials here say the amount of
money secured by the robbers was only
$1277. About 100 mounted men are in
