FRESNO ROBBERS FO|LED
Timely Arrests Spoiled Job
Arranged for Last Monday
Night.
Confession That Will Probably Break
Up a Notorious Band of
Desperadoes.

FRESNO. CAL, Aug. 6.-Deputy Con-
stable Crutcher, who recently effected the
arrest of Ed Vanderzweip and Frank
Quintera, highwaymen and robbers, has
secured positive evidence that had the ar
rests been delayed one day Vanderzweip
and one of his pals would have attempted
to crack safe in the store of Murrell &
Taylor at Mariposa and streets. Quin-
terra has confessed all the doings of the
gang of robbers. Nearly every robbery
and burglary which has taken place in the
city and vicinity during the past year is
now laid to this gang.
1t is believed that Quinters is telling q
straight story. He and Vanderzweip have
both been identified by Messrs. Green and
Latter, whom they held up east of the
city last Sunday night. Quintera has in
formed Officer Crutcher of all details of
plans which had been laid to rob MurreIl
& Taylor's store. 1t was to have taken
place last Monday night.

open any safe in the country, and has
claimed that ne and his brother Jim (now
in San Quentin) robbed safe In San Fran.
cisco more than year ago. The crime re-
ferred to was peculiarly bold and adroit
one. Cracksmen one night entered saloon
and restaurant on busy street, solved the
combination of the safe and stole $3.50 in
coin and many other articles of value. An
attempt to fasten the crime on the Wander
zweips will be made by Detective Gibson

IRREGULAR TARIFF RATES
Railroad Officials Refuse to Take
Commissioners Into Their :.
Confidence.
Therefore Little Progress Is Made in
the Inquiry Into the Law
Violations.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug. 6.-The Inter
state Commerce Commission made very
slow progress to-day in the direction of
finding any Irregularities in freight rates
charged by the railroad people.
G. NJ. Parker of the Missouri Pacific was
on the stand this morning and admitted
that his road had hauled grain at six
cents, but said 1t was only to points
within the State of Missouri, and the
commission has no authority over State
rates.
D. Miller, traffic manager of the Mis-
souri, Kansas and Texas line, was an
obIiging witness, but as his road hauls
little OF no freight under the varying rate
little information was elected from the
gentleman. Several other railroad officials
were examined and found in the same
category as Mr.. Miller. Nothing was
learned.
In the afternoon A. B. Stickney. presi-
dent of the Great Western, was on the
stand. He explained that the Anglo
American Company acted as brokers for
the Iowa Developing Company and that
the stock of the latter company is held by
the Great Western road. One of the COM
missioners suggested that this is equiva-
lent to the railroad being in the grain
business and gave them great advantage
over the ordinary dealer. MIR. Stickney
said that the question involved points OF
law which he could not discuss.
The commissioners will continue their
labors Tomorrow

FLOODS IN NICARAGUA
Heavy Loss of Life Occasioned
by a Sudden Rise of Shall
low Rivers.
Plantations in the Valleys of the
Rama and Siquia Completely
Overlooked.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Aug. ga special from
FL Rama, Nicaragua, reports one of the
greatest disasters that ever visited that
country. The heavy rains which fall at
this season of the year have caused rapid
rise in the Rama and Siquia rivers.
The water overflowed the banks and in
undated the country for miles around. It
rose so rapidly that many of the inhab-
itants could not escape. Moderate esti-
mates place the loss of life at twenty, but
those who know say that later reports will
show that far greater number perished.
In El Rama only fifteen buildings were
left standing. All the plantations in the
vicinity of the town are DESTROYED. The
loss of property is fully 81, 100000.
Panic-stricken people took refuge on
the high grounds. number were also
taken on board the small steamers in the
rivers. The rivers continue to rise, and it
is hard to say just where the food will
stop. The country in that vicinity is low
and has had several floods before, but
never any equal to the present inundat ton.
The rainy season begins in May and lasts
until January, and the rains are very
heavy. This year they have been un-
usually SO.
The Rama River rises in the hills of the
San Chontales district between Lake
Nicaragua and the Caribbean Sea. 1t is a
small river and is navigable for only few
miles from its mouth. The district of San
ChontaIes, where the Roma rises, is cele-
brated for its gold mines, of which there
are more than 300. Copper, iron, tin, lead,
zinc, antimony and quicksilver are found
in abundance.
The plantations along the course OF the
Rama are among the richest of the world,
producing cocoa, cotton, rice, indigo, to-
bacco and corn in great abundance. So
rich is the soil and so favorable the
climate that two or three crops OF sugar

bears the evidences of having been care
fully gone over by the author, for the al
terations in grammatical construction and
verbiage number 118. Among the correc-
tions made is reduction from thirty to
twenty years as the period fixing the time
during which the Republicans have tried
to secure an international agreement. An
entire new sentence appears at the conclu-
sion of the paragraph, in which Mr.. Bryan
defies the finding of a record in history
where the common people of any land
have declared in favor OF the gold standard.
This new sentence reads as follows:
'tThey can find where the holders of
fixed investments have declared for gold
standard, but not where the masses have. /"
The extracts from the speech of Secre-
tary Carlisle are quoted, as is also the
closing reference to the crown of thorns
and the cross of gold, thus removing the
charge of plagiarism that has been made
in some quarters. The entire speech has
been Photographed and much attention
given to the punctuation.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Aug. 6.-Mar-
Gus A. Hanna dropped over here to-day
on his way from New York to Cleveland,
and held consultation with suh-com-
mittee of the Business Mems National
Campaign Committee upon the ampaign.
The subcommittee which met Mr.. Hanna
was representative of the leading manu-
featuring and business firms OF the city.
Mr.. Hanna arrived here at 3:12 o'clock
this afternoon from New York, with Con-
gresham Butterworth of Ohio, who met
him by chance on the train.
Charles G. Harrison, the millionaire SUI
gar-re6ner and provost of the University
of Pennsylvania. met Mr.. Hanna at the
station and escorted him to the Srratford
Hotel, where he met ex-Postmaster-Gen.

Pres; Thomas Dolan, the manufacturer;
Rudolph Blankenburg, chairman of the
subcommittee of the Business Men, s
Committee; Theodore Q. Scare !, president

wealth and prominence: William Singerlv.
proprietor of the Philadelphia Record !;
Joseph H. SInnot, of the distilling firm of
Moore & Sinnot, and Frank Thompson,
vice-p president Of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road.
Mr.. Converse explained that the object
of the Business Mems National Camps m
Committee was TO cooperate with the
National Republican Committee and assist
it in the coming campaign by the raising
of money for the campaign expenses, the
dissemination of sound money literature
and the establishment of headquarters for
this purpose in various cities in different
parts of the country.
Headquarters have now been esta bIisked
in Boston, and it was explained that Mr..
BIankenburger would go to Chicago on
Monday next to see some prominent busi-
ness men and establish headquarters in
that city.
Mr.. Singerly, speaking as a Democrat,
said that the question of the present cam
paign was one greater than that of party
politics, and that it was question of pre-
serving the National honor and financial
integrity.
Mr.. Hanna said that he was in hearty
sym pathy with the objects of the associa-
tion, and expressed himself as grateful for
the help that it would accord the National
Committee in its work.

Two Men Demanded the Money,
While Three Accomplices
Awaited Outside.
BUT THEY RECEIVED BULLETS
INSTEAD OF GOLD.
During the Exchange of Shots John
Dessart, the Gritty Official,
Was Wounded.

TUCSON, ARIz, Aug. 6.-Word was re-
ceived in Tucson early this afternoon that
the international Bank of Nogales had
been held up. The latest facts obtainable
are from various private and official tele-
grams.
The attack was made upon the bank at
1890 P. NJ, the time being we'll selected,
as but one man was on duty at the noon
hour, the president, John Dessart, being
the only person in the bank when two
armed men stepped into his presence and
demanded the money in his care. while
three accomplices remained on watch out
side.
President Dessart showed fight and fred
in return when they made an attempt to
kill him. He succeeded in holding them
off until the noise of the firing attracted
assistance. Mr.. Dessart was hit by one
of the bandits shots, but the wound was
not serious.
The robbers made good their escape,
starting in the direction of Calabasas. A
posse of citizens was at once organized and
started in pursuit, Nogales being IN state
of high excitement.
Later reports by way of San Bernardino
ranch, Sonora, nine miles over the line,
state that Ave Americans passed. They
were well armed, and one appeared to be
wounded. The Nogales citizens posse was
in close pursuit.
Sheriff Leatherwood and deputy left
Tucson this evening for the line to head
off the bandits in case they swerve to this
side again, as they are described as ali be-
ing Americans. five in number.
Mr.. Dessart, the plucky president who
stood off the bank-robbers, is well known
in Southern Arizona, and the latest re-
ports are that he is only slightly injured.
