TALL AND SHORT ROBBERS.
They Attempt to Rob Coal Office in
Troy, N. z. in Day Light.

New York, Aug. ia dispatch to
the World from Troy, N. Y, says:
Two daring robbers were captured
here after being chased for two blocks
Just before noon two strangers entered
the coal office of John T. Hopkins.
While one ordered the bOokkeeper to
hold up his hands the other went to the
safe.
Doherty jumped on the man nearest
him as he was reaching for his hip
pocket and there was a desperate
struggle. The other came to the res
cue and both men succeeded in escap-
ing to the street, where a crowd gave
chase. When captured they gave their
names as Louis Schultz of Detroit,
James Lynn of Pittsburg. Both were
well dressed.
Lynn is a tall, slim man, and Schultz
is short and thick set and the police
think that maybe they have caught the
notorious tall and short men who re-
Gently terrOrized Chicago.
Two years ago a tall and a short
man entered Waite's coal Office here
during the daytime, robbed the safe
and murdered BOokkeeper Ritchie.
They were never apprehended and pos
sibly may be the men who were cap
tured yesterday.

USED A SHIP FOR ATARGET
A Battle Ship Turns Her Guns on the
Flagship Instead of the Target.

Paris, Aug. 19.-During the artillery
practice of the French Mediterranean
squadron yesterday off Toulon, says
a dispatch from that city Admiral
Gervais and his staff had narraw es-
cape.
Instead of aiming at a target which
was being tOwed 500 yards behind the
flagship Brennus, a battleship of 1000
tons displacement, the cruiser Vantour
turned her quick fire guns on the flag
ship for some time.
The shots rained around Admiral
Gervais and his staff, and their escape
was a miracle The glass in the admit
rails coming tower was riddIed and q
sailor was wounded.
There is much mystery as to how the
mistake occurred, as it is thought i'm
possible that the gunners could have
missed the mark by the 500 yards.

The Independence manager wanted a
guarantee of $25 per game and so per
cent of the receipts, which is unfair.
In addition the manager wanted the
dates changed to Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday of next week. These dates
would interfere with the bicycle races
and could not be considered. Every
thing is declared off, and the Maroons
have disbanded.
