hiding in the woods.
At Senoia he told the story of his
capture. He said he was sitting out in the
woods, when McWllliams came up and Or
dered him to throw his rifle down; but Delk
did not do it. Instead; he sprang behind a
tree and then commanded McWiniams to
throw down his pistol. This Williams did.
Delk made him give up all his money and
then began to deliberate.
McWiiams proposed that they lay in
wait for a man who would soon be along
with 500. While they were talking Nc
Williams jumped on Dclk. They fought for
fifteen minutes. Delk tried to gethis pistol
to kill McWiilams. Finally McWilliams
snatched it and dubbed the desperate with

Then McWilliams marched his prisoaer
half mile to his own farmhouse and had
the bell rung for help. When the farm hands
came they chained Delk and started with
him to Senoia.

Relative Standing of Candidates for
the Presidential Nomination.
WASHINGTON, March 27-J. H.
Manley sent to w Murray Crane the
following telegram to day:
Washington, March 81, 1896.
sHon. w. Murray Crane, Republican
State Convention, Boston, Mass: In
answer to your inquiry, this is the situ-
alton as it will stand at the end of this
week: At the close of your convention
there will have been 39S delegates elect
sed. Governor Mckinley will have 162
delegates, provided you assign to him
the entire delegation from Wisconsin,
Indiana and Minnesota. But there
should be taken from this number
twelve delegates from the States which
have declared since their election in ia
vor of Mr.. Reed, and as they were not
instructed they should be taken from
the Mckinley column and placed in Mr..
Reeds. This gives Governor Mckinley
100 delegates, Mr.. Reed 72, Governor
Morton GA. Senator Allison SO, Senator
Quay 26, Senator Cullom 10, contested
81.
You will see that this gives Mr.. Nc
Kinley 80 delegates against 21O anti
Mckinley delegates. The situation is
precisely as it was twenty years ago.
You will remember that three months
before the convention met at Cincinnati
we were confident of Mr. Blaine's NOM
ination. He stood then as the apostle of
protection, but he had opposed to his
nomination Senator Conkling Of New
York, Senator Morton of Indiana, Sec
retary Bristow, Governor Hayes of Ohio
and Governor Hartranft of Pennsyl-
vania- We felt so sure of Mr.. Blaine's
nomination that we regarded it as set
tied, and yet he was defeated in the
convention, and the Maine man went
down before the Ohio Governor.
History will repeat itself at st.
Louis. Governor Mckinley is and will
be the leading candidate before the con-
vention, but he will have opposed to
him as candidates Governor Morton of
New York. Senator Allison of Iowa,
Senator Cullom of Illinois, Senator
Quay Of Pennsylvania and Mr.. Reed of
Maine. You will find that the tables
will be turned, and the Ohio Governor
will go down before the man from
Maine. J. H MANLEY."

OAKLAND, March pa bold rob-
berry was committed early this morning
at Steges, Contra Costa County. The
station agent at the place, man named
Thompson, was aroused from his sleep
by three masked men, who, at the point
of drawn revolvers, forced him to open
the safe. Then they bound him and tied
him to the bed, and plundered the safe
of $50 in cash belonging to Wells, Fargo
d Co., SO belonging to the company,
$40 belonging to Thompson and about
5000 in Wells-Fargo money orders that
are not negotiable.
After perpetrating the theft the rob-
bers left the place hurriedly, locked the
door behind them and disappeared in
the darkness.
Thompson tells the following story of
tie robbery:
Il went to bed about II o'clock, and
just before l was awakened by a loud
calling at the front door of the station
house. l slipped on my clothes, think
ing it was someone who had business
with the company, opened the front
door, and as 1 did so short man wear
ing black mask pushed a revolver
~,
he, followed by two others, stepped into
the office.
They asked me to open the safe, and
when l told them / did not know the
combination, they tied my hands and
feet, took out a burglars outfit and
commenced to drill the safe. After they
had drilled short time, fearing the re-
suit of an explosion, | agreed to open the
safe for them, and they united my
hands while l worked the combination.
After the safe was open they tied
my hands and feet again, threw. me on
the bed and hurried away. 1t took me
some time to work my hands free, and
after I succeeded 1 telegraphed the news
Of the robbery to headquarters"
The young man could give no descrip-
ton of the robbers, except that one was
a short man with dark hair and talked
with a German accent.

OF INTEREST TO STOCKMBN.
Drovers Sent Out With Cattle Trains
VIII Ride Free.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 27.-The
Southern Pacific has issued a new or
der with reference to drovers sent out
in charge of cattle shipped by it's trains
that will be of interest to all stockmen
Under the old rule the men sent in
charge were allowed to ride free to the
shipping point, under certain restric-
tions, but were given no return privi-
lege. The new rule gives drovers the
privilege of free return, and is expected
to facilitate livestock shipments all
through the territory of the company.
The old rules for the carrying of dro-
vers were as follows: with one car
load, one man accompanying in charge
to ride at half-fare; with two or three
carloads, one man accompanying in
charge to ride free; with from four to
ten carloads, two men accompanying in
charge to ride free; with ten and under
fifteen carloads, three men accompany
ing in charge to ride free; with fifteen
carloads or over, four men accompany
ing in charge to ride free
The new rules read: with shipment
of one carload of livestock, one man
may accompany free, but not return
free; with two to five carloads. one man
may accompany and return free: with
six to ten carloads, two men may ac-
company and return free; with eleven
OF more carloads, three men may ac-
company and return free
When more than one carload of
stock is shipped on account of one owner
from different stations to one destina-
tlon, on same train, man or men NAV
accompany as per above, and will be en-
titled to return free, as follows: One
man to the station where the second car
was placed in train; one additional man
to the station where the sixth car was
placed in train; one additional man to
the station where the eleventh car was
placed in train
These rules are effective at once, and
the stock shippers who have been work
ing to secure return transportation Tor
droverS are much elated. Under the
new system the drover going with live
stock will purchase from the agent at
the point of shipment a special return
trip ticket, issued for this service, and
upon coming back and presenting the
ticket to the local agent at the original
point of departure will have the full
amount of the purchase price returned
to him
