ROBBERS FARED WE'LL.
Secured $500 in Cash and Stamps
From Two Maryland Postoffices.T

Westminster, Nd, Dec. 20.-The post
offices at Union Bridge, this county, and
at Unionville, Frederick county, We're rob-
bed Friday night of $500 in cash and
stamps 1t is believed that the robberies
we're perpetrated by two men who have
been lettering about Union Bridge for
some days.
1t appears that they stole horse and
buggy, drove to Unionville, seven miles
away, cracked a safe there, and then
decamped, using the horse and buggy to
nut a safe distance between themselves
and their victims.
The postoffice at Unionville is in the
store of II. c. Worman, who S postmaster.
The burglars drilled3a hole in his safe,
inserted d charge of gun powder and were
awarded with $3.50 in cash and $500
worth of stamps.
The oracksmen then drove to Union
Bridge where they followed their opera
tions successfully. Postmaster Little's store
was entered, his asafe blown. open, and
$3.50 in stamps and currency taken. The
store S located on Main street, and the
noise made by the robbers aroused many
neighbors, but they We're not sufficiently
curious to investigate its cause. T'"''5

WAR ON ARBUCKLE.
Sugar Trust Spends Millions of
Dollars to Down Him.


Chicago, Dec 2O-A special from To-
ledo, Ohio, says: The immense deal by
which the Sugar Trust came into pos
session of the WooIson Spice Company has
been closed and the money paid over. Not
withstandng the fact that Haycmeyer's
agents have been in Toledo for over
month nobody but the directors OF the
Woolsou Company was aware of the fact.
Lawrence Newman has beenin New York
for n week to close the details OF tic
ira nsfer.
One singular fact is that in spite OF the
big price paid, the Woolson people were
forced into making the deal. Hayemeycr
desired to make a fight on Arbuckle and
to do so it was necessary that he should
meet him in his own field, coffee. When
first approached the Woolson people asked
ST 800 q share.
Havemeycrrefused to treat on such terms
He would give $1,000. He was willing
to put 100000 or thereabouts in the
purchase of 4 club with which to thrash Ar
buckle. 1t was found that the book value
of the st oek was over 81 200. Hcthreatened
to establish a coffee plant and go into the
business On a large scale. He would cut
prices so that the competition would hurt
the W. olson quite as much as it would the
Arbuckle people.
Mr.. Newman went on to New York and
saw Mr. Hayemeyer and an agreement was
reached 1t was that the sugar trust pco-
pie should get ,1CO of the 1,sGO shares
Of stock at 81, 150 per share, making the
sale III round numbers 81, 100000 for
eleven -cightecnths of the entire stock.
So secretly were the neg citations conducted
chat it is said some of the smaller stock
holders were not aware of the deal until
they read it in the papers yesterday.
1t is understC Oh in Toledo when Have
meyer gets through with Arbuckle tie
property will revert back to the Toledo
owners.

Columbia Typographical Union, No. l0l,
met III regular session yesterday afternoon
at their headquarters on street. The
meeting lasted from 2:30 p. IN. To nearly
= O'Clock, and was at times intensely eX-
citing.
II was expected that the report Of the
grievance committee, which sometime
ago investigated the troubles between the
TWO local organizations OF plaSterers, would
have been made the special order, and as
a consequence there was a very large at
tendance In this a great number were
disappointed. The matter was not en-
ieytained at any time further than the
submitting of the unread report ufthe com
mittce of igation.
As a matter of fact little was done A
proposition TO gave more assistance or more
pay TO the ialitOr Of the building resulted
in heated discussion, which lasted until
the hour Of Adjournment
PRESIDENT KEHoE's ACTION.
The matter, however, it is reported,
never got fairly before the meeting, be
cause President Kchoc refused TO enter
tain it.
This action iDcenScd the friends OF tie
measure and an appeal from the decision
az the chair was taken. This motion. also,
was not entertained, and as result the
meeting was resolved into committee
OF the whole.
In this form the proceedings were con-
tinucd for nearly three hours and the meet
ing adjourned until next Sunday without
having accomplished anything, 50 far as
legislation is concerned.
President Kchoc refused to entertain
the proposition for an increase of expenses
oT The union on the ground Of economy,
and also because tie does not believe in
lcitiD= the expenditures exceed the in
come.
In this Mr.. Kehoei is supported 10y a ma
JorI J of the union. although among them
are many who believe he erred in not
giving proper recognition to the motion
10 increase the salary OF the ianitor.
ON the other hand it is claimed ly
those who favor the increase that the
services rendered are worth more pay.

FRENCH SUGAR INDUSTRY.

New Measure Submitted to the
Cabinet.
PARIS, Oct 25.-The draft of bill
to regulate the sugar industry of
France and to counteract the export
bounties of other countries was sub
mitted to the Cabinet at it's meeting to-
day 1t adds tax of 212 francs to
the duties on home consumption, and
the funds so derived will be applied to
granting an export bounty of 212 francs
for refined sugars and raw sugars, in
Guiding 80 per cent, and an export
bounty of ~ francs for raw sugars
including 90 to SO per cent. The bill
protects the refiners at seaports and
French colonial producers by a bounty
system and the allowing of a draw
back on foreign sugars intended for re-
export is maintained. 1t is proposed
that the bill shall not be operative I'M
til September, 1898.

GERMAN SUGAR RING.

Four Hundred Manufacturers Form a
Trust.
BERLIN, Oct. 25.-It is reported that
a sugar ring is in process of formation,
whose membership will consist of 400
German sugar manufacturers. This
organization proposes to establish a
central point for the sale of the prod
uct of German sugar manufacturers,
and negotiations are in progress with
a view of connecting the organization
with the Austrian and Russian sugar
trusts.
The Freisinnige Zeitung, in an ar
ticle announcing the proposed forma-
ton of this ring, says the scheme is
gross outrage, having for its object the
exploitation of consumers in an at
tempt to cement an oppressive German
sugar monopoly. The scheme, the
Zeitung says, must be suppressed at all
hazards

President Cleveland Not Disposed to

NEW YORK. Oct. 23.-The Suns
Washington special says: The repeat
ed assertions that President Cleveland
contemplates in the next three months
recognition of belligerent rights TO
Cuba unless through some agreement
with the other Governments the indie
pendence of the island is accomplished,
are unquestionably the products of
lively imaginations and have no more
foundation now than six months ago,
when they first began to appear.
The Presidents attitude against
Cuba, as stated today by prominent
officials, is the same that it has always
been, and unless some decidedly I'M
expected and unforeseen situation is
presented in the next few months, there
can be little hope that the admins
tration will do anything more than at
tempt to prevent flibustering eXpedi-
tions from leaving the Southern States.
Of late unusual precautions nave been
taken to this end.

M'KINLEY's VOTE GROWING.

Result of a Second Canvass Made of

NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-The Repub-

who were agreeably surprised by the
first canvass which they made of the
State, when an unusual plurality for
the Republican ticket was promised,
have about finished the second canvass.
Everywhere the first canvass was not
only corroborated, but the Mckinley
vote is estimated at Is per cent higher
than it was in the reports of the first
canvass. The first canvass made the
vote so big that the managers were
afraid to disclose the total for fear of
having their sanity questioned.

Catholics, the belief being that this
concession would settle the difficulty.
1t might have settled it so far as the
Roman Catholics were concerned, but
when the Protestant leaders heard Of
it they raised big row. Such con-
cession they declared to be a violation
of the national school principles. So
the Manitoba Premier, Mr.. Greenway,
had TO withdraw from this agreement,
and now, as far as can be learned,
no other scheme can be devised, and
the settlement is as far off as ever.
