FOUR MEN ARRESTED.
Accused of Being Implicated in the Pike
Vile Robbery-All Old Offenders.

Accused of Being Implicated in the Pike
vile Robbery-All Old Offenders.
Friday night the police officers had a
big nights work, but were we'll repaid
as they rounded up the gang who are
supposed to have been connected with
the robbery of Farmer Coon in Pike
vile last Tuesday-a The four
men arrested were Louis DeCastro.
Charles Loescher, Harry W. Hendee
and a countryman named Morehouse.
The officers had the men spotted early
in the evening and started to make the
arrests. 0Hare drew the pleasant
duty of arresting Loescher and pro-
ceeded to Taylor's saloon, where he
found his man together with. several
companions. When O'Hare entered
the saloon Loescher attempted to get
out, but the policeman stopped him
and Loescher at once started great
fight against arrest. Officer Lane
came in at this point and Loescher was
finally landed in Jail.
The others were arrested without
any trouble except DeCastro, who had
hidden in barn belonging to j. ID.
Kimball on Prairie avenue. Officer
Kraft went to the barn and finally
found the Frenchman about o'clock
this morning.
AS soon as Morehouse was arrested
he was in for making a full breast OF
the affair. He stated that the men had
left this city Tuesday night on the Ke-
nosha division train and had gone out
with the evident purpose of getting the
$500 which he (Morehouse) knew that
Coon had received during the day.
They left the train at Bristol and
walked six miles to the Coon resi-
dence. Morehouse stood near the
barn, while The other three went to the
house and fred sixteen shots through
the door. Morehouse watched till
they smashed in the door and then he
went to the house to receive his share
of the spoils. Not finding any money,
the men were very angry with him and
hitching up one of Coon's teams they
drove over to Bristol station and took
the train for Kenosha.
This morning Officers OHare and
Newhouse, together with Morehouse,
drove out to the Coon residence and
made arrangements for swearing out
the warrants in Waukegan, as the
crime was committed in Lake county,
and the men will probably be taken
there for trial When DeCastro was
arrested he claimed to reporter OF
this paper that he had grip in the
Darn where he was arrested and asked
that it be obtained. The barn was
searched by the officers, but they failed
to find any trace of the grip, which is
thought to contain damaging evidence
against DeCastro and the men arrested
with them. The officers think there is
ample evidence to convict the men, as
they have. been fully identified by the
trainmen in charge of the trains Oh
the night of the robbery, to say moth
ing of the statements of Morehcuse.

FIGHT IN BRASSVILLE.
Snow Ball Causes Pretty Lively Distur-
pance.

A real lively scrap occurred out at
the Brass mill at noon today. There is
certain large man Of German descent
works at the mills, and as he was going
home at noon today some one hit him
with a snow ball. This hurt his Ger
man dignity, and turning round he
seized small boy, who happened to be
coming along, and proceeded to let
loose the torrents of bis wrath upon
him. All was gong very we'll until
the big brother of the small boy arrived
and proceeded to give the German two
black eyes and badly battered nose.
No arrests have been made.

Lew Grover, in speaking with the
representative of this paper this morn
ing, stated that the deal made by Mr..

aid was very Unjust to him. He further
stated that he had desired to sell his
part in the business to Mr. Johnston
but Shierk had said that he was not
willing to have Johnston purchase the
interests of Grover. Grover says that
he then sold his interest to Shierk for
a very low figure, with the privilege OF
buying it back at any time within a
specified period of time. A few days
later his former partner sold the half
interest to Mr.. Johnston, and now Mr..
Grover is completely frozen out as be
is unable to see how it is possible for
him to obtain his half interest under

The Property Records I'm D.ur.-

1t Is to be hoped that Recorder Cheatham
will succeed in his announced effort to
persuade Congress to give him money
enough to provide a fire-proof vault for
the storage of the papers in his custody
The citizens of the capital have for years
suffered thus from insufficient LEGISLATION.
1t has been but recently that a small an
preparation was obtained to afford greater
security to the wills filed with the register.
and now 1t appears that the records Of
deeds to property, involving the titles to
millions, are In constant jeopardy through
the neglect Of Congress to provide modern
facilities for their safe keeping. The build
Ing in which the wills and the deeds are
filed Is far from modern. Part of 1t dates
hack several decades and the newer portion
Is but poorly equipped with conveniences
Tor the preservation of such inf1ammabIe
material There should be at once erected
for the convenience and protection of the
recorder and his valuable trust a fire-proof
vault Of ample dimensions and fitted with
every modern device for security and
speedy use. The recorder will win hearty
approval II he should secure this reform
during his term. He has other opportuni-
ties to better the service of his Office. No
branch OF the public business more nearly
reaches the foundations Of the District's
prosperity as this repository of its propertv
records and no effort should be spared to
make II perfect in all its appointments.

Is not the American put before the parti-
san here? In partisan debates no name
before popular audiences is so often or so
effectively conjured with by democratic
orators as that of Andrew Jackson. The
republicans encounter 1t IN every national
campaign. They encountered II frequently
in last years campaign. In the effort to
prevent Mr.. McKinley's own election to the
presidency, democratic orators adjured the
people to remember Jackson. But that is
only the partisan view. Before that is the
American view, and that Mr.. Mckinley
himself takes as generously as any demo-
erat. He can appraise Jackson's great
qualities, and SO he salutes his memory
with a tribute Of sincere praise.

fuses to incur the slightest possibility of
being defeated before the eyes of all his
friends and relatives" This tendency, Mr.
Cook believes points to a deterioration
of the best qualities of foot ball. 1t GER
tainly goes somewhat to disprove the ac-
cepted belief that one of the most DOM
inant traits of the British character is a
persistent striving for goal in all lines of
life, private or public.
The author criticises the American style
of rowing and believes that the crews from
this side will never be able to compete sue
cessfully with English oarsmen until they
have learned to regard their arms as mere
connecting rods between their bodies ara
their oars. The English style IS less
nervous, more solid. Mr.. Cook thinks
that the race between Yale and Leanilsr
last July, In which Yale was beaten, clearly
showed that on other than a half
course and without good lead the Amnrl-
can boat cannot hold up against a we'll
trained English crew. He believes that
there has not yet been time to develop
great athletes. and especially a surely WIN
ming crew. To this exceptions will surely
be taken here. The nervous life Of Ameri-
cans he feels to be q handicap on the eff
forts of trainers on this side Of the water
This same element, however, he urges as
the reason why Americans have estab-
lished most of the records for field and
track sports, and especially the short runs.
America Is pretty well satisfied with her
athletic record, whatever the analytical
speculations CT English critics may be,
and those shortcomings that are confessed
are probably more than balanced by the
possession of base ball as national sport,
which, to the American temperament, at
least. is as far superior to cricket as the
American pie is to the English tart

Mr.. Pepper's ConclusiOns.

The return of Mr.. Pepper from Cuba
where he went as the special correspond
ent of The Star, has enabled him to write
Of the general situation, aside from de-
tails Of description. His summary of the
entire case appears in today's issue and
will be found to contain an exceedingly
clear and intelligent presentation of the
facts bearing upon the present and future
of the contest there. Out of the cloud OF
many mis-statements that have been made
on both sides in regard to the Cuban trou-
bles Mr.. Pepper Is able to draw several
logical conclusions. He reaches the de-
cision that In view Of all the circumstances
there Is practically no prospect that the
Spaniards will be able to subdue the In
surgents or that the insurgents will be able
to expel the Spaniards.

A signal Journalistic Victory.

For a long time the American newspapers
were targets for the severest abuse, both
by the Spaniards in Spain and In Cuba. and
by the few sympathizers with Spain In this
country The situation in Cuba, 1t was
alleged was being grossly and systematic
ally exaggerated. The special correspond
efts, under orders, were magnfying the
size of the insurgent movement on the one
hand. and belittling Spain's splendid sue
cess In dealing with 1t on the other. The
whole insurgent case. it was asserted, had
heen so distorted by this corps of trained
writers, that not only in the United States,
but wherever the news sent to this country
Rad been repeated, a false and viciously
misleading impression had been made.
This was the weylerfan contention, and
to correct the abuse, GeneI al Weyier estab-
lished a press censorship at Havana, and
began a system of bullying persecution to-
ward the American correspondents. He
claimed the right to edit all of their letters
ard dispatches to their respective newspa-
pers, and also to banIsh from the island all
correspondents who in evading his censor
ship published news at home of which he
did not approve. A very lively time re-
suited. 1t was apparent at once, of course,
tfat General Weyler would pass nothing
Under his blue pencil which was not favor
able to the Spanish cause. or laudatory of
his plan of campaign. The correspondents
mrst suppress the real news, or else evade
the censorship and take the consequences
Like men of spirit and character, they
chose the latter course, and several of the
boldest of them, a representative of The
Star among the number. were forced to
leave.
But how stands the record today? Have
not these newspaper reports been fully con-
firmed? Can 1t truthfully be said that the
darkest picture drawn by any American cor
respondent writing from Cuba is an exag-
geration when compared with what stands
described now in official documents? Do
We not know now both from Consul Gen
eral Lee and from Special Commissioner
Calhoun that the Weylerian program has
comprehended everything that Is shocking
to humanity and civilization? Have not
speople been butchered. homes destroyed and
helpless thousands driven into pens, like
cattle, where many are now starving to
death? This stands of record now under
the seal of this government Is 1t not con-
hrmatory in the fullest degree of the state
ments that have been made from time to
time by writer's for the American press
whose work.. when it appeared, was de-
Bcunced as wickedly sensational?
The American newspapers have performed
many valuable public services, but few
more valuable than their uncovering of
the Spanish atrocities In Cuba, with the
director of them standing guard over his
crimes. and exerting himself to the utmost
to prevent the truth from being exposed.

Engln nd.

One OF the suggestions growing out Of the
approaching jubilee ceremonies in London
relates to the use of TIE world England
1t comes Of course from those subjects of
the Queen who live outside of "the tight
little ISLE" and represents their desire to
be remembered more specifically In the OFF,
cial name of the ceremonies. England"
they hold, Is not sufficiently comprehensive
in describing the great political and geo.
graphical quantity which in this elaborate
ceremony the Queen will represent. Sew
eral words are suggested-some of absurdly
fantastic coinage-but noLe is likely to be
chosen.
Nose should be chosen. With the world
at large, England stands for all that Eng
land controls. The name Is fixed and Is
illustrious in history. It cannot be changed
or subordinated as long as English power
as now organized lasts. The greatest title
the great woman now OF the thrown wears
is that of Queen Of England. The title of
Empress of India was tackled on by
statesman of alien exit faction and Oriental
characteristics. The writer's are all agreed
that only Mr.. Disraeli, of all the men who
ever rose to power in England, was capable
of complim anting his sover eign in that way.
All great Engiishmen, of pure English ante
cedents, have operated in the name of
England, and with the fondest pride in the
name. 1t represented to them all that
made for what they considered progress
and civilization.
1t Is strange that this view is not univer-
sal In English territory, with the exception
of Ireland. Ireland may not reasonably
be expected to take any pride in either the
name or fame Of England, but in Scotland.
Wales. Canada, Australia, India and wher-
ever else the English flag flies and English
power obtains. many notable things have
been achieved In the English name And
the geographical size of England proper,
instead of detracting from, adds to the
wonder of the English achievement Never
before, so far as history records, has SO
much of intellectual planning and accom-
plishment proceeded from so small a ter
ritory as England. And this may be con-
ceded without any Endorsement of her land
grabbing propensity. her bullying perform
