 It would be odd if Frank James, Jesse's brother. were to die at the hands of train robbers who followed in his early foot steps! It may come to pass, too.
 For now that oft quoted bit of advice, 'Set a thief to catch a thief" has been needed by the express companies who car ry fortunes through the Southwestern states in their strong boxes, and who lose them sometimes at the hands of despera- does.

New YORK, Dec. 27.-A New York
dispatch to The Daily News says:
There is rumor that Secretary Olney
has sent private telegram to Lord
Salisbury assuring him that the passage
Of the commission bill was not to be
construed as hostile act. The Daily
News says editorially on this: "There
is nothing incredible or surprising in
such an announcement. On the con-
trary, it would be highly honorable in
Mr.. Olney."
The Daily News says further: "Our
Vienna correspondent has reason to be.
ieve that Lord Salisbury is negotiating
with France and Holland as owners Of
American colonies to join in protest
against President Cleveland's action,
which has been condemned by Spain.
We should be inclined to doubt the
wisdom of any European alliance to
meet demands which have not been
supported by cool and sober opinion in

DULL WEEK IN CONGRESS.

Moth ing of Importance on the Pro-
gramme in Either House.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-The business
in the senate this week will be to per
feet the organization of the committees,
to refer the bond bill to the finance
committee and then adjourn over until
Thursday, unless the house can be pre-
vailed upon to adjourn over until the
following Monday. In case of a session
Thursday, there will, i'm all probability,
be slim attendance with another ;ad-
journment until Monday, the 6th of
January. The adjournment over is
almost certain unless a financial de-
bate should he unexpectedly Sprung.
Some of the members of the
finance committee have expressed
the hope that the revenue bill
might be reported in some shape by
Thursday, and if it should, more or
less talk in the senate would occsr.
The programme in the house is for an
immediate adjournment on Tuesday
until Friday, and from Friday till Mon
day, Jan. &.
