HELD UP THE COACHES
poID DAYLIGHT ROBBERY IN VEL
LowsToNE NATIONAL PARK.
Troops Have Closed All outlets and
the Apprehension of the Rob-
bers Is Certain.

Yellowstone Lake, Wyo, Aug. To-
Two masked highwaymen held up and
robbed a number of Yellowstone Ma
tional Park Transportation coaches i'll
the park, relieving the tourists of about
$500. Up to 6 o'clock Saturday evening
the fugitives had not been apprehended.
The coaches were robbed while EN- route
from the Canyon hotel to Norris Geyser
basin, and had covered about five miles
of their journey. At the point where
the hOld-up took place was the crest
of a high hill, where the freight road
branches off from the government road
at sudden turn. When the first coach
came along the robbers, with masked
faces and cooked Winchester rifles,
commanded the driver to halt While
one man kept the occupants of the
coach covered, the other relieved them OF
their money. When all had been secured
the driver was ordered to proceed at a
gallop. Each coach was halted III the
same way as it drove up, the preceding
ones being hidden by the trees. When
the last coach had been robbed, the ban
dts departed for parts unknown.
Colonel Young has an exact descrip-
ton of the men, and it will be almost
impossible for the highwaymen to leave
the park The robbery occurred about
10 o'clock, but nothing was known of it
until the coaches reached Norris, about
an hour later. Colonel Young was inn
mediately notified by wire, and soon had
soldiers galloping to every possible out
let of the park.
Two men answering the description of
the robbers were tracked in southerly
direction along the eastern shore of the
lake. Troopers will attempt to head them
by crossing the lake on the government
steamer Great hopes are entertained OF
their ultimate capture None of the pas
sengers in the coaches was hurt.

A Custom House to BE Established
MT Sl1aEawny.

Seattle, Wash, Aug. lS.-The steam
shin Alki. from Skagaway and Dyea,
brings the following letter to the Assoc
cated Press;
Skagaway. near Dyea, Alaska, Aug. A..
Twelve Canadian customs officers have
arrived here and will establish custom
house at the portage between Lake Ben
nett and Tagish lake, a point by which
all Yukon and Klondike travellers must
pass if they start from Dyea and Skaga-
way. The rates of duty will average
about $50 on the average outfit OF Il
Yukoner. The officers are we'll armed
and will have the assistance of the mount
ed police to enforce the collection OF du-
ties. Further down the river will be sta
toned guards to intercept any one who
might elude the vigilance of the officers,
American miners who have investigated
the question assert that the treaty be
tween Russia and Great Britain provided
that the Yukon, Porcupine and Skeena
rivers should be free for commercial pur-
poses and exempted from imposition OF
custom duties. The Canadians eyade the
point at issue by claiming the prospectors
crossing the mountain ranges to the lakes
or headwaters of the Yukon do not 90
down into the territory by way OF any
of the rivers mentioned, but that they
cross American territory and before they
can reach the Yukon the duty is eXacted.
Miners and prospectors are much eXer-
cised over the situation and this may
lead to complications. Canadian officers
declare they will enforce the law impair
tally and will not discriminate against
Americans.
1t is idle to argue there is not serious
feeling between Americans and Cana
dams. The newly appointed collector
of Alaska, Mr.. Ivy of Oregon, has been
here. He said he had been in tec-
graphic communication with Secretary
Gage just prior to sailing from Seattle
and that he will be ordered to install Il
SUPPORT of entry at Dyea as soon as
possible Unless both governments are
very careful system of retaliation will
be in vogue before either are aware of
the fact and much i'll feeling will fol-
low and the miners will be the great
sufferers.

BROKE THE DEVILS BACKBONE.
Rocky Fortress of the HatfieIds
Shattered by Dynamite.

St Louis, Aug. l6.-A special to the
Post Dispatch from Huntington, w. Va,
says:
One-half of the Devils Black Bone,
the rocky fortress of the Hatfields in
the mountains on Tug river, was shat
tered by dynamite Saturday and Hatfield
and his men driven FROM their strong
hold by Sheriff Keale and his posse, af-
ter a desperate battle.
Several of the sheriff's men are bad
ly wounded, but the Hatfields are still
free Only this has been accomplished.
that the rocky crest where the Hatfelds
have for years defied the law, and from
which they have carried out their bloody
plans, is no longer tenable fortress.
1t was decided by the besieging force
to dynamite the desperate and his gang.
All day Friday and Friday night the
closest watch was kept. At 8 o'clock in
the morning the dynamite arrived, and
by II the explosive was placed. The
fuse was laid, the match was applied and
the attacking force began to fall back.
Until now the besieged seemed not to
suspect what was being done, but with
the flashing of the train which led to the
dynamite all realization of their peril
came. Men jumped from cover and rush
ed hither and thither in full view. a
rush was made down the side of the
mountain. Three men dropped wounded.
1t was useless to try to escape by the
well known path and the desperadoes re-
turned to the top of their rocky fort, Hat
field directing them.
Great boulders were hurled over the
rocks in hopes of breaking the fuse.
Then came the explosion. Pieces of rocks
and trees flew in every direction. Whom
the smoke cleared Hatfield and his men
seemed unframed. Dan Lewis, Steve
Stanley and Jack Monroe, who presumed
in the excitement to leave the shelter
were shot and are not expected to re
cover. Another charge of dynamite was
trained, but under the cover of the eX-
plosion Hatfield and the rest of his men
escaped. The chase was renewed. and
hampered as he is by his wounds, Hat
fields capture within few hours must
follow.

IDAHO MEN RETURN FROM ALASKA.
Advise All Prospectors to Take
Their Own Pack Animals.

Boise, Idaho, Aug. l6-H Beastman
and A. j. McNab, two of the leading
men of the state, returned last night
from trip to Alaska. They were
aboard the Mexico when she was
wrecked. Mr.. McNab, who is an old
miner and has operated in British Co
lumbia, said respecting the Klondil;e
rush. at would be impossible to get
into the country this fall When we
were at Dyea there were 500 people
waiting to make the trip, with 800 tons
of supplies. There were 20 horses and
about go Indians to do the packing.
The horses could pack Is miles on the
Dyea pass route to Sheep Camp. Then
there was one and three-quarter miles
impossible for horses, being too steep
for them to climb The total distance
from Dyea to Lake Linderman is %
miles, and the price asked for packing
goods is 20 cents pound
Mr.. McNab said it would certainly
require six months with the facilities
available to pack the goods now on the
ground over the pass. Winter will set
IN about september 10, hence ms conclu-
sion that it is utterly impossible for
prospectors to go into the klondike this
fall. Moreover, those who go in the spring
should take their own pack animals, max
ing themselves entirely Independent.
On the general question of the placer
mining resources, Mr.. McNab said it
was his belief that they were extensive.
1t was altogether probable, he said, that
on the Polly, Stewart and other rivers
and their tributaries diggings similar to
those on the Klondike will be found Mr.
McNab also said that in his belief, based
upon reliable information the best route
into the country is via the Stikine river.
Boats can be run up the river l20 miles,
or parties can pack all the way from the
mouth

Washington, Aug. l6.-Mr. Adams, the
British charge d'atlaires, has telegraphed
the department of state that the customs
charges on miners outfits for the Klon-
dixie arriving from Dyea and other points
are those authorized by the ordinary
revenue laws of Canada. No special or
unusual regulations were made. On the
contrary, the instructions sent were to
exempt miners blankets, personal cloth
ing in use and broken packages of pro-
visions being used, also cooking utensls
in use. To make food allowance, instruI-
tons have been given for the season to
the customs officers at Tagish to exempt
100 pounds of food for the journey
charging ordinary customs duty on the
excess.

THE MINIS OF BRITISH INDIA.
London Times RidIcules the Iden of
Opening Them to silver.

London, Aug. 1.-THE Times has pub
lished two-column special article today
reviewing the effects of closing the In
dian minis in connection with the visit
of the American bimetallic commission.
1t says:
"The closing saved the Indian govern
ment from losses incident to the heavy
fall of exchange and consequently from
a disastrous increase in the burden of its
gold obligations. 1t is undoubtedly true
that it also helped to keep down the gold
value of silver bullion, but may not the
question be raised whether the low
price of silver is necessarily disastrous to
India, which purchases it so largely?
Since 1893 India has been the only real
wholesale customer for silver. Other Gus
toners are of the retail order,
"The delicate adjustment of the reia-
tive prices of the rupee and silver for
merly existing has been rudely shattered
by recent events Since 1896 the rupee
has risen and silver has fallen The fact
is, the forces now acting upon the price
of silver have become too tremendous to
be dominated by such delicate influences
as preceded the defeat of Bryan's silver
party and Japan's adoption of the gold
standard. These events have proved
causes too potent to be withstood.
"One thing is certain, we would be
very foolish to do anything for silver.
Even should the United States and
France agree to adopt bimetallism and
England to reopen the Indian minis, it
would only bolster up silver for a brief
space, to fall again to its proper market
price; so that Indian finances would be
in a position as bad as before, if not
worse than before"
