Rio Grande express company has been
furnishing revenue stamps to its pa
irons, while the American, Adams and
United States, members of the so-cslled

combination, saying: There will be
no through billing between the Denver

yer and Rio Grande express company
furnishing shippers internal revenue
stamps at common points, and business

obstacles it chooses to commerce car
ried by other companies.

Alleged that 10000 Given to

by Actions of Sweden.
Rumor of a mig Robberv

Rumor of a Mig Robbery.
A report was current in New York City
Thursday that the American Express
Company was robbed Wednesday of
$4,000 given it for transportation. The
money is said to have been taken from a
through western express while the train
was being made up in the yards. The
officers of the company refuse totalk of the
matter. The western express, which
usually consists of eleven cars and carries
nothing except express matter, goes
through to Chicago, dropping off cars
at intermediate points. Large sums of
money arc frequently carried out on this
train.
The story is denied, but it has been
learned, however, that a detective agency
had reported Clark Braden, jr., a night
clerk in a branch office of the American
Express Company, had stolen five $1,000
bonds of the Consumers Gas Company of
Chicago. Besides taking 5000 in bonds,
Braden, 1t is alleged, has taken 81, 1000 in
cash. There were $4,000 in bonds left at
the office Wednesday night which Bradcn
was to turn yer to the messengers for
shipment Thursday morning. When the
messengers arrived Braden, $1,000 worth
of bonds and 5000 in cash were missing.

Deputy United States Marshal Shannon
and Capt. Webb of the secret service, have
returned to Toledo from the wilds of
Pauling County, Ohio, having in charge
Henry Lnce and DR.. Alexander Tllomp-
son, two residents of that county, charged
with passing counterfeit half dollars. The
prisoners were arrested at Cecil. Thomp-
son drew a revolver and endcavored to
make a break for liberty. 1t is known
that an organized gang of countcrfeitcrs
inhabit the swamps and forests of Pauling
County, and the officers believe they have
secured two members of the organization.
When searched several blank certificates
of membership in an %oathbound society
were found on Luce.

Edward NJ. Hunt of Chicago. Shot
by a Court BailifR.
Edward NJ. Hunt, an ex-deputy sheriff,
was shot and killed Wednesday afternoon
In Chicago by w. Ray Smith, a bailiff in
Judge Horizons court and a nephew of the
judge.
The men had quarreled some time ago
over a small sum of money due from Smith
to Hunt and Wednesday as Smith was
walking along the street Hunt jumped out
from behind a building and opened fire.
Smith held up to protect himself a quart
brick of ice cream which he was carrying
and Hunts first bullet was stopped by it.
He then drew a revolver and both men
fired as rapidly as they could. Hunt was
hit in the side and died in a few minutes.
Smith was shot in the left hand and right
leg. He surrendered himself to the police.

MONETARY COMMISSION.
Bill Introduced in the House En-,
bOdying the Scheme.

Bill Introduced in the House EN-.
bodying the Scheme.
Mr.. Overstreet of Indiana, introduced
in Congress on Thursday, a bill for carry.
ing out the plan Of the monetary commis-
sion for reform of the currency. 1t was
referred to the committee ON banking.
The bill embodies in legislative form
every feature of the recommendations of
the commission. The earlier portions re-
lating to maintaining tile gold standard,
the creation Of a bureau of issue and re.
dcmption and the gradual retirement Of
legal tender notes, is embodied in almost
the same language as in the report. The
banking features are more elaborate and
carefully define the character of the guar
anty fund for the protection of notes issued
upon assets and the manner of redeeming
the notes Of failed banks.
