toner Fatally Shot.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Feb 25.-A special
to the Gazette from Warren, Ark, says: A
daring but unsuccessful attempt was made
to rob the Merchants and Planters bank of
this place today. About 2:30 o'clock three
men entered the bank and two of them
walked around behind the enclosure, where
Mr.. Adair, the cashier, was seated in con-
versation with Messrs. T. M. Goodwin and
d. w. Sutton.
Their first salutation was: Hold up your
hards."
Mr.. Adair sprang for his pistol when the
men commenced shooting, and Mr.. Goodwin
received what is thought to be a mortal
wound and Mr.. Adair was shot through the
shoulder. He returned the fire and evil
lently wounded one Of the men, when he
rode off he was seen to be bleeding. The
Airing of the pistols startled the citizens,
Who came running from all directions, and
the robbers were forced to retire without ac-
ccmplishing their object. AS they rode out
Of town they kept up a fusilade of shots and
went northwest of town. The plans were
well laid and no doubt the bank would have
Seen looted but for the promptness Of Mr.
Adair with his pistol. Mr.. Goodwin Is in a
critical condition. Mr.. Adair's wound is a
very painful one but not necessarily danger
Gus. Several citizens had narrow escapes
from the flying bullets and the interior Of
the bank is perforated with bullet holes.

alty. The trial was resumed at the First

WICHITA FALLS, Tex, Feb. 25.--Two
robbers entered the City National bank at
245 this afternoon and demanded the money
Of Cashier Dorsey, who resisted them.
Shooting began, resulting in the death of
Cashier Frank Dorsey and the wounding of
Bookkeeper p. p. Langford. Langford S
wounds are not serious being slight flesh
wounds. The robbers secured only few
hundred dollars in silver. They then
mounted their horses and made run for
their lives. BY this time many of the citi-
zens had armed themselves and small
battle took place. One of the robbers
horses was shot from under him and 1t is
believed the robber was wounded. He
mounted behind his partner and about a
mile from town met farmer in buggy.
They took his horses and made a break for
the hills. In the meantime the citizens had
secured horses aud begun the pursuit, the
leaders following within quarter of a mile
of the outlaws.
The Panhandle and the City National banks
Immediately offered a reward of 81 600 for
their capture, dead or alive The latest re-
ports are that the robbers are corraled in a
large thicket nine miles from town. The
thicket is surrounded by twenty-five or
thirty determined men, fully armed, and es-
cape is almost impossible. They have sent
in for twenty-five additional men, who have
just started. Foster Crawford, one of the
robbers who killed Cashier Dorsey, is said
to be noted desperate. 1t is also re-
ported that one Of the famous Christian gang
was the other man.

boat McAldln Brothers came along without
any lights She had a batch of men, in
cluding General Garcia. We gathered them
in and then put some deputies on board the
Bermuda. After that we got the Stranahan.
THE Stranahan was captured while on
its way down to the Bermuda. Everything
was made ready on board the Stranahan to
put the firearms on the Bermuda while the
ship was steaming out to sea. When the
marshal loaded the Strauahan he found
about 100 boxes of rifles on the deck. They
were concealed under klndling wood. He
also found Captain Hughes, for whom he
had a warrant All this was considered proof
and the tugboat was taken charge OF. 1t
was sent to the barge Office.
Marshal Mccarthy, when he boarded the
Bermuda called the captain up and placed
him under arrest. Then he disconnected the
machinery OF the ship by removing the pis-
ton rod and took charge of the Instruments
used In navigation.
"All of the tugs involved in the prepara-
tions were detained, but with the exception
Of the Stranahan, they have been released.
The Stranahan will be held awaiting advices
from Washington.

to return to the ship. Two deputy marshals
are now in charge of the vessel. The Ber-
muda will be detained until the Washington
authorities decide otherwise.

Spirited Combat of words Bctwccn

the Free silver Apostle
from Colorado.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25-After the senate.
had disposed OF much routine business to-.
day, Mr.. Allen, populst of Nebraska, offered
resolution for the appointment of James h.
Lloyd of North Carolina as second assistant.
doorkeeper Of the senate This speedily de-
veoped a sharp controversy. Mr. sherman
called attention to the fact that by an ar
rangement by both sides Of the senate, two
young men, one satisfactory to republican
senators and the other satisfactory to the
democrats were appointed 1t was needless,
Mr. Sherman said. that an Office should be
created
Mr.. Allen responded that one official had
been chosen to look after republican caucus
secrets and another for democratic caucus
secrets, II was most appropriate In view OF
the proportions which the populist party was
assuming In the senate that populist officer
be chosen.
There was considerable further discussion,
but the resolution finally went over.
Mr. Morrill,, chairman of the finance com
mittee. Immediately followed with a distinct
surprise in the form of resolution to take
up the tariff bill. Mr.. Morgan began with
brief statement as to the complications on
the tariff bill. He said 1t had been apparent
for many months that there was deficiency
in the revenues. During every month since
the present tariff bill went into effect there
had been a deficiency.
"How was IL before?" nte;jected Mr.. Hill.
Mr.. Morrill, went on to state that the de-
fclency up to this time reached 10000, 600.
If went on at the same rate the def
cheney would be $50 900 for the year. 1t
was certainly manifest that congress should
do something to relieve the treasury and as
sist in the revival of business. Therefore,
concluded the senator, he moved that the
serate proceed to the consideration of the
tariff bill.
Tho roll call proceeded with many inter-
ruptions in order to allow senators to pair.
The announcement that Mr. Morrill's motion
had been defeated-ayes, %; nays, 33, was
not unexpected in view of the vote some

GIVEN ANOTHER OVATION.

Meanwhile still wilder scene was being
enacted outside The court ROOM The prison
ers had been smuggled into the court room
so unexpectedly and with such dexterity that
the awaiting mob was cheated out OF their
opportunity for shouting. But they were
ready this time. DR. Jameson's appearance
outside the building was the signal for Il
wild outburst of cheering, throwing OF hats
in the air and a tremendous pressure to get
up within reach OF the popular idol The
crowds intentions were friendly entirely so.
but they threatened bodily harm to the OBJ
ject of their admiration DR.. Jameson was
quickly hemmed in by "a surging throng
who apparently sought to carry him. and he
made his way through them with great diff
Guilty. When he finally reached his cab he
was driven on without waiting to make any
sign of acknowledgment OF the popular ova-
tion.
Inside and outside Bow street police court
in anticipation of the arrival Of Dr. Jameson
the principal subject discussed was the charge
upon which he would be arraigned. Lawyers
have claimed that he can be charged with
being pirate, taking the ground that he
and his followers committed an act similar
to the acts committed by pirates at sea
and that pirates and land pirates evidently
come under the same category and should
be punished under the same provisions Of
the law.
Then again 1t has been asserted that DR..
Jameson should be charged with high
'eason, on the ground that he was caught
bearing arms without the authority Of his
government in the territory Of foreign
power. This view OF the case, however, is
combatted on the ground that the South
African republic is not a foreign power, as,
according 10 the treaty Of 1884, II Is prac-
tically under the protectorate of Great
B tain, inasmuch at its foreign relations
are subject to the approval Of the British
