ATTEMPTS TO WRECK TRAINS.-The whoe
Of Great Britain has been startled by an epidemic
of railroad outrages. on the Northwestern and

Instructions were placed across the track and one
express train had most narrow escape from dis

but did not leave the rails. The most alarming
Of the outrages is the fact that the police
have not been able TO obtain the slightest clew to
the perpetrators. though hundred detectives have

one theory is that the crimes are the work or a
band OF train wreckers looking for plumber and
emulating the Far West hold-ups.

THE poARke WILL.
Judae Grouse Denies lis Admission
 to inc probafe Court.

The Roarke will case has been de- concerned Judge Grouse yesterday denied the admission of the will to probate He took issue, however, with Judge Baker for the contestants, who contended that it was not of testa- menlary character, that it bequsathed nothing, but merely set forth what Roarke wanted to dc some time in the event of certain contingencies. Judge Grouse held that in that respect the will, though unique, was sufficient to carry all the property the writer in- tended it to carry. But he believed, as the attorneys claimed, that the will was spurious, that it was prepared af- ter Roarke's death and that the writer of it had net only forged the testator's name, but those of the two witnesses. The writer is, Of course, A. B. Lavelle. If the conclusion of the court is correct MT LavelIe is like a singed cat for shrewdness If Roarke's signature is not genuine there has been skillful forgery. Though Roarke has been dead less than a year, the document looks as though it might be even older than it purports to be, not quite five years. The theory of the contestants is that Lavelle exposed enc side of the document to the rays of an Arizona sun which bIeached and aged" It, that he smoked both sides over fire place and then covering it with col ored quilt poured water upon the quilt. communicating the coloring to the paper A double motive is ascribed by the contestants to Lavelle. The first was revenge against Roarke and F. l.. Brill for causing his arrest and im- prisonment for killing bull belcng- ing to Roarke: the other was cupidity, the hope of selling the will to the beneficiary, William J. Roarka
 Judge Grouse does not believe that young Roarke was a party to the plot, but that he honestly believed the will tc be genuine.
 The other witnesses, except T. Ready, who swore to his own signature as a witness of the will, the judge be- Heves were honest. Ready rather prejudiced the case by unnecessary and preposterous statements. For in- stance, though Lavelle went to Rands- burg, Cal, after him, brought him back to testify and was with him for several days both occupying the same room, Ready swore that they held TO conversation about the will.
 The case cannot be regarded as finally settled It will. most likely be appealed 10 the district court.

THE MoHEGAN MYSTERY.
Various Theories as to the Explanation
 of the Terrible Blunder

London, Oct 2S-Tha Mohegan dis aster is probably destined to remain one of the unexplained mysteries of the deep. Numerous theories have been conceived, but none is capable of proof Suspicious with regard to Captain Grlf- fiths's sanity and sobriety are absolu- tely impossible. Something wrong with the compassSs was an evident Sugges- tion, but the Mohegan held q correct course past the Eddystone Light, and it is impossible that the compass could have acquired a deviation of point within forty knots. Moreover, framed card was found floating near the scene yesterday which proves the compasses were properly and professionally ad- justed on the 5th instant.
 The suggestion of the existence or magnetic attraction in the neighbor- hood of Dodmanhead must be dismiss ed, as couple of years ago the coast was minutely and scientifically resur- veyed and no such indications were found.
 Two theories now divide the public that is most interested. The correct magnetic course from a mile south of Eddystcne Light to the Manacies is west half north, and to a fair berth off the Lizard, west half south. It Is as- stunned that Captain Griffiths confused north and south, net mentally, but by a mere slip of the tongue. A more psychological suggestion amounting to a similar practical result is that the captain suffered from one of those in- cemprehensibls mental delusions or a momentary cessation of brain power, which occasionally cause man to for get a. the moment even the name of his own street. He may thus have given completely wrong course CT have imagined the Manacles to be the Lizard and ordered accordingly.
 To meet the possibility Of such cases, 1t is new suggested that the captain $ orders ought always to be v-rified by the navigating officer on the chart as soon as given. instead of assuming the captain to be incapable of a neral er- TOT.
 The need Of lighthouse as the Man acles has been demonstrated by a long series of miner disasters. It will prob ably soon be supplied.

CONCERNING DOG cAToHrRs
A perfofmance which VIII Make nr. Scott Turn Green.


 Emanuel B. Scott, the duly author ized and accredited dog catcher of Phoenix, has been doing good work. and has just cause to feel proud. Yet when he reads this he will conclude that he Is not only not the only star in the firmaneM., but that he is not even a luminary of the first mag nitude. This is about Charleston, $. C., dog eradicator who slew 5000:
 To kill 6000 dogs in the course of an ordinary run of work is not record to be made easily, ard the killer thinks hs has the largest list to his credit in the country.
 .I have always killed the dogs with 8 parlor rifle," said the official execu- tioner for canine prisoners, and owing to the fact that am considered a good shot have had the bad luck to get the detail great many more times than would have liked. Many a time have I gone to the pound and found forty or fifty dogs there waiting to te shot, and the minute I would enter they would seem to know my mission and try to avoid me I always used a small rife, and it was therefore neces- sary to hit the dogs square in the brain in order to kill them quickly and with as little pain as possible. 1 would lave to whistle to the prisoners to look at me so I could get d fair aim. We'll, they would understand what I wanted so well that they would turn and hang their heads against the wall. Many a time have I left the pen sick ct heart with myself and my job.
 SThn rnncf dic9 h1Q aYnpr-ianaa% T ever had was with little black and tan terrier. There were forty-f1ve dogs in the pen one morning when I went 1n, and half an hour later net one was cn bis feet |. was customary for us to go about ank kick the dogs after they had been shot to see if they were dead, ard was doing this when the little terrier jumped up and made a break for liberty. He had been 'ros- suming,' and he was the deadest-look- ing dog I ever saw until I kicked him. When the terrier got to the gate and found it was locked he made dash around the circle. whining ritifully, and my heart failed me.
 "The fact is I uld have lost my lob before would have shot that little dog, and as he carfe around again called to the gatekeepsr and we let him out He flew down the street when ha was free from the pound. That happened while Captain Golden was chief, and knew he was strict about such matters, so I felt uneasy about letting the dog go. When I told him of it, however, he said he would have discharged me had I killed the terrier"
