David Mcdonald, of Mt Carmel, sends a
lengthy communication to the HERALD
setting forth what he terms as shabby treat
ment he received at the hands of Owen
McNally, Of Girardville, and j J. Toole, of
town, concerning the forfeit money in his
match with William Gibson, which fell
through here on account Of interference by
the Sheriff. The letter is in such severe
language that the HERALD cannot give it
space. Mr.. Mcdonald complains that he
visited Shenandoah and failed to locate Mr.
Gibson or his hacker, The HERALD still has
the $50 posted by each Of the parties for a
new match and unless the matter takes some
definite shape on or before the 25th inst. the
money will be refunded TO the respective
parties, and they will take this as their
notice to call for the money after that date

TRACING
ROBBERS.
Several Search Warrants Bring Con-
siderable Evidence to Light.
RICHARD BURNS WAS The LEADER.
Stolen Property Recovered by officers To-
day VIII Convict Him and others Of
at Least Three Robberief Of
the Past Pew Months.

The people of town, especially those en-
gagged in business, will rejoice to hear that
the authorities have at last located the
thieves that have been committing so many
petty depredatious for several months past
and up TO the present time successfully
eluded all efforts made to arrest or trace
them
From existing evidence it is quite clear
that the thieves had their headquarters in
the Fifth ward and on Glovers Hin and
sufficient evidence has been secured to con
vict at least two of them.
Tt will be remembered that at about three
O'Clock in the morning few days ago, one
Richard Burns made an attempt to force an
entrance at the rear Of Amandus Womers
house on North Main street In trying to
pry open a door he made noise that
awakened Mrs. Womer and she gave an
alarm. Policeman Edward Kester and
Waterman O'Han were in Pear alley, at
the rear of the premises, and caught
Burns as he ran out. The prisoner, although
a small fellow, showed fight to the officers,
but was overcome and is now in jail The
police say Burns is one of the most skillful
and desperate, as well as shrewdest young
thieves ever found in the town. He is about
10 years of age, but will easily pass in ap-
pearance for 49, The police say that had he
not been drunk on the morning he attempted
to get into the Womer place he would in all
probability still be at large and playing hide
and seek with the authorities
Immediately after Burns was landed i'm
Jail several clues commenced to develop and
this morning they had grown to such prom
ising proportions that several search war
rants were issued by Justice Shoemaker and
placed in the hands of c. & /. Policeman
Bedea and Constable Phillips The officers
searched houses on Glover's Hill and West
Line street with excellent success. Ia one
place they found tools that were stolen from
the carpenter shop at Kohinoor colliery about
a month ago. In another they found razors
that were stolen from Foltz's barber shop on
the morning following the night the
kohinoor shop was robbed They also found
two pairs of clippers, half dozen razors
hone, pair of barber's scissors and other
supplies which it is believed formed part of
the stock in Brodericks barber shop, on West
Lloyd street, when it was robbed several
months ago.
Bedea and Phillips have ample evidence to
connect Burns with the Kohinoor Foltz and
other robbeIies in addition to the Womer
charge so that he will in all probability
stand good chance for long Imprisonment.
Who the accomplices are they decline to say
at present, but it is believed that at least one
Of them will be arraigned within few days
and the work of breaking up one of the
sharpest gang of thieves that has infested
the town since the days of the Flynn Kline
gang will be well under way

which, he SAYS, has led many good
and honest persons to insist that in
tervention to terminate the conflict Is
the immediate and imperative Cuty of
the United States"
He said his purpose was not ct that
the United states could not contem-
plate with complacency another ten
years of Cuban insurrection. His sug-
gestion looked to finding a way ito CO.
operate with Spain in the immedi-
ate paciiication of the island on such
a plan as, leaving Spain her rights of
sovereignty, shall yet secure to the
people of the island all such rights and
powers of local self government as they
can reasonably ask To that end the
United states offers and will use her
good offices at such times and in such
manner as may be deemed most ad-
visable."
Mr.. Olney then suggests that neither
Spain nor the Cubans can reasonably
object to this Intervention. and adds
that if anything is to be done it should
be done at once, and on Spain's initia-
tive In closing, he says the communi-
cation is prompted by the friendliest
feelings towards Spain and the Span
ish people.
Mr.. Foraker read extracts from Mr.
De Lome's reply, among them the fol-
lowing:
There is no effectual way to pacify
Cuba, unless it begins with the actual
submission of the armed rebels to the
mother country.
''The government of the United States
could, by use of proper means contrib
ute greatly to the pacifcation of the
Island of Cuba
THE government of his majesty is
already very grateful to that of the
United States for it's intention to pros
,ecute the unlawful expeditions to Cuba
The struggle is being prolonged by the
powerful assistance which the rebel
lion finds in the territory of this great
republic.
THE constant violation of interna-
tional law in its territory is especially
manifest on the part of Cuban emil
grants, who care nothing for the losses
suffered in the meanwhile by the citi-
zens of the United States and of Spain
through the prolongation of the war.
when the government of the United
States shall once be convinced of our
being in the right, and that honest con
viction shall in some manner be made
public, but little more will be required
in order that all those in Cuba who
are not merely striving to accomplish
the total ruin of the beautiful country
in which they were born. being then
hopeless of outside help and powerless
by themselves, will lay down their
arms"

The Destiny of The Tariff Bill stm in The
Balance.
WASHINGTON, May 2O--The situation in
the Senate so far as the tariff bill is concerned
becomes more critical every day and the
prospects of early action is more remote than
ever.
Senators who, month ago, predicted a
sure majority for the bill now acknowledge
that everything is in doubt.
Should the friends of the tariff bill make
the effort on Monday and succeed in having
the bill taken up, thereby shelving the
Cuban resolution, the friends of the latter,
it is stated, will continue to discuss Cuba,
thus preventing any progress with the tariff
bill.
Considerable bitterness has been engen-
dered during the discussion of the Cuban
resolution which, it is believed, may work
against the tariff bill.
