GULF TRAIN HELD UP.
TWO MEN DO THE WORK AT
TWIN FOUNTAINS.
Report That They Got From 5000
to $4,000 Denied By the Officers
of the Express Company.

Denver, Sept. 3.-Word has just
reached this city that the Gulf passen-
ger train was held up and robbed at
Twin mountains last night at 1880 by
two masked men. The men were riding
on the blind baggage, and when near
the point nqauned they climbed over the
tenders and covering the engineer and
fireman with revolvers, they ordered
them to stop the train when .hey
reached the road crossing. At Twin
mountains two men with four l1crses
were stationed at the road crossing,
ard as soon as the train stopped g!.av
began to shoot their reyolvers to i'm
timidate the passengers. Two of the
men entered the express car, compelled
the messengers to vacate and blew open
the safe. Putting the contents into
sacks, they mounted their horses and
rode away.
Immediately on receiving the news at
Folsom a posse was organized and
started in pursuit. A posse was also
started from Trinidad.
1t is not known how much was Sc
cured, but ii is estimated at from $4,000
to $4,000. The railroad company has
offered a reward of $500 for the capture
of the robbers.

WILLIAM SKEPTICAL.
Doesn't Think Much of the Franco
Russian Alliance

London, Sept 4-The Berlin corre-
spondent of the Times says the zun-
kunft publishes what is undoubtedly
an authentic interview with Prince
Bismarck, probably obtained by Count
Limburg-Stirum, who recently visited
the ex-chancellor, on behalf of the Con-
sentative party.
Prince Bismarck expressed himself as
very skeptical regarding the alleged
F'ranco-Russian alliance, and declared
that the cars toast really committed
Russia to very little. In the course of
the interview Prince Bismarck said:
Il remember in my diplomatic exper-
fence similar obscure expression which
we're not unpleasant to the ears OF
those they concerned l do not think
the treaty as it exists would at all
please the French. The policy of the
Russian government has always been
cautious, and l cannot conceive that it
could needleSsly commit itself to adj
ventures from which it would gain
nothing. Count Muravieff has always
behaved as Germany's friend. and do
not see any reason why he should
change his mind"
Prince Bismarck complimented, some
what ironically, President Faure's at
titude. taste and success in the new
fashion of political travelling, and re-
peated the opinion that nothing would
come of it. adding:
But for all that the French people
are moved nearer to the fire and might
more easily than ever boil over. This
ought to deliver our rulers from any
illusion they may still cherish. ans
should serve to warn them against al
tering the basis of our national de-
Tense"
The ex-chanceIor deprecated the
clamor for a big fleet and for colonial
expansion, saying:
"Our flag should follow our trade and
not precede it. The most important
thing for Germany is a strong army.
That was the opinion of Won MoltlSe.
who shared my conviction that we shall
have to fight upon the continent of
Europe battles which will be decisive
for our colonial dominion.
In the course of some interesting but
uneracious personal "reminiscences of
his political and personal relations with
the late Empress Augusta, the conflicts
with whom he said had shattered his
nerves more than all of his parliament
tary and diplomatic battles, he re-
counted how he frustrated the intrigue
to make her regent in 1S4S and con-
cluded the interview by ridiculing the
report that he was going to Kiel to
chrfsten a ship, saying:
Il am no longer a man for festive
I coca sious''

New York, Sept. 3.-R. G. Dun & Co.. S
weekly review of trade viii say to-
morrow: Failures during August were
in number II per cent less than in Au-
gust, 1896. but in amount of liabilities
I0.S smaller. The Improvement is also
well distributed, extending 20 nearly
every important branch of business. but
in clothing. jewelry snd unclassified
trading only two months of the past At
have shown smaller failures; in gen
eral stores and furniture only three: in
groceries, hats and iron manufacture,
only four; in chemical manufactures
only five, and in clothing manufacture
six months of the A. The ratio of de-
faulted liabilities to payments at clear
ing houses has been smaller in July
and August than in any other montA
since early in 1893 August was the
first month in which the daily average
settlements through clearing houses
exceeded materially that of the CORE
spending month of 1892, the excess at
the principalities being 1913 per cent
Nor is this due, as might be supposed
to activity in stock speculation, for the
stock exchange clearing house now dis
posed of a very large share of trans
actions. SO that they affect bank ex-
changes far less than five years ago.

ANDREWS UNDECIDED.
Doesn't Know Just What He Will
nn

New York, Sept. Slate this even
ing when seen by representative of
the Associated Press, DR.. Andrews
gave out the following statement:
Some weeks ago when I thought of a
severance OF my relations with Brown
university. assumed the responsibility
of conducting during the coming year
a very important educational under
talaang projected by john Brisbane
Walker, but now soon to be taken
charge of by a corporation made up
of we'll known gentlemen, all sound
money men, deeply interested in the
proposed educational enterprise The
work to be done by the new corpora
ton is in the nature of the university
extension already begun by the Brown
university, so that the head Of the
Brown university might be the same
person who had charge of the new
work. There would, in the nature of
the case, be nothing homogeneous in
such a union as appears in the fact
that President Harper, Of Chicago uni
versity, is also collegiate principal of
the Chautauqua university. Yet / do
ret mvSaalf deem that sopt of a union
in the present case advisable or likely
to give satisfaction. If resorted to it
will be only a device to tide over a
temporary difficulty. Either the old
enterprise or new one may itself suf-
ficiently tax the energies of any one
man. Just what permanent settlement
will be arrived at. I am not in a po-
sitton to state. 1t is hoped that it
will be the one best calculated to fur
Their the cause of education
When asked whether he would with
draw his resignation from Brown uni
versity the doctor said he could not
state positively what he would do I'M
til he had consulted the trustees and
fellows of Brown university.

Tt Was a Cute Trick.

Des Moines, Ia, Sept. 3-The Demo-

today a temporary injunction restrain

Charles Walsh, secretary of the Dem
ocratic committee, was in the office of
the secretary of state ready to file the
Populist and Democratic ticket, when
Mr. Weeks. secretary of the middle-of-
the-roaders, entered with Deputy Sec
rotary Smith. Weeks had given the
papers for the middle oft he-roaders to
Smith prior to entering the office. and
Smith placed the file mark on them
Immediately. Walsh protested Snd the
outcome was the injunction to restrain

Activity Everywhere.

New York, Sept. 3.-Bradstreets to-
morrow will say: Previous activity in
all lines of trade is maintained There
is a better tone to demand of jobbers
and the volume of business in WOOL
leather, clothing, hats, groceries. and
light hardware has increased There
is a better request for wooden and cot
ton goods, jewelry and rubber goods
and for boots and shoes. Some whole
sale merchants at western centers re-
port the largest volume OF trade on
record. There has been an increase in
consumption of cotton by southern
mills.
There were only 1876 business failures
reported throughout the United States
this week against 30 last, 1886 in the
week one year ago, 1874 two years ago,
207 three years ago and 379 in the like

failures reported from the Canadian
dominion this week. Last week the
