TRAIN HELD UP.

!

Two of them evil dently boarded the blind baggage in this citys The train was scarcely out of town when these two climbed over the tender and presenting revolvers, told Engineer Bruce and his fireman to stop at lonely spot near the Pelican river bridge Arriv- ing at this place the train was stopped and leave the cab. The other members of the the express car. All wore handkerchiefs over their faces The gang was regularly organized and went by numbers. When the train stopped the conductor and brake man started forward to find out what the trouble was, but the bandits fired num- Der. of shots and warned them to keep back. They then compelled the express messenger to leave the car, and while three or four stood guard the others proceeded to blow open the safes. The local safe was destroyed and 1t is thought that they suc- ceeded in obtaining considerable money. The through safe was drilled and dyna- mited, four charges being used The Jacket was blown off, but 1t was found im- possible to reach the inner part and get at the cash.

BABCOCK'S CLAIMS.
Figures That l85 Straight Republicans
 Have Been Elected.

Washington, November 10-Late in the afternoon, Chairman Bacock practically completed a list of the representatives-elect to the Fifty-sixth congress. The latest au- thentic advices received by the committee indicate that two districts are in doubt yet, the second California and the Twelfth Texas. In both, however, MT. Babcock comedies that the chances are favorable to the democrats. He claims neither of them.
 Tonight MT. Babcock's figures show the election of 1855 straight republicans, 1G3 democrats and populists and one silver-re- publican. These figures do not include the doubtful districts mentioned. Conceding these two districts to the democrats as means of reaching definite results, MT. Babcock claims a certain majority of thir- teen over all opposition.
 Little information of definite nature was received by the democratic congress sional committee tonight. Secretary Kerr maintained that the opposition to the re- publicans would organize and control the next house of representatives. His figures indicated that the opposition would have at least 1S0 votes and perhaps 1S1.

 The business session followed at the com missions commodious quarters, which com- prise floor of the Arlington hotel annex. The meeting today was mainly for the puf- pose of adopting the general plan of busi- ness to be followed.
 The commission did not hold an afternon session, but a committee consisting of Lord Herschell, Sr Richard Cartwright and Messrs. Dingley and Kasson, was in ses- sion. Owing to MT.

PRESIDENT MASSO
Writes Mckinley in Reference to Condi-
 tions in Cuba.

Washington, November 1O.-A letter from President Masso of the Cuban provisional government to President Mckinley became accessible today. It is dated at Santa Cruz del Sur, September 23, and deals with the governmental problems which now confront the Americans and Cuban people in Cuba. President Masso says that with the evacu- ation of the island by the Spanish twill commence the arduous and difficult task of establishing in Cuba firm and stable gov ernment which shall be the legitimate ex- pression of the free will of its people and shall constitute a real guarantee of order, peace and liberty, which the Cubans so -ardently wish for.''
 President Masso says that the logic of events imposed on the agreement between Americans and Cubans as to the ends to be accomplished and that 'the complex labor in which we have been and are now en- gagged has been but in part realized;' and that "the government council as the su- preme authority of the revolution has in. spired all its acts in the aim of sustainine and aiding the policy of the American gov ernment."
 President Masso then reviews the actions of the Cuban revolutionary party and in- dicates the steps that are to be taken by the Cuban people to bring to fruition the hopes which have inspired them through years of strife for freedom. He adds: We will stand by those men who have sa- crificed everything for the welfare of their country and we are ready to answer for our conduct. He comedies that the American government should garrison the island in order to insure tranquility dur ing the period of transition from Spanish to Cuban rule and that "the natural de- velopment of events will necessarily bring about practical understanding between the American government and the people of uta upon a common basis"

GEN. wHEELER's PLAN.
Colleges Agree to Educate Cuban Young
 Men Free of Charge.

New York, November 1O.-Gcneral Joe Wheeler is deeply interested in the educa- tion of Cuban young men. He believes that If young Cuans will come to this country and be uttered and then return they may be of great use in developing Cuba and in- troducing a stable form of government. General Wheeler has commissioned Gilbert K. Harroun treasurer of Unon college, to ask the American colleges if each of them would give free education to two or more Cubans if the right sort of men could be found to secure a college course in this country. Mir. Harroun has written over 300 college presidents in the United States ask ing them to cooperate and advance Gen. eral Wheelers opinion. Ovr 100 replies are at hand, and with one accord the colleges agree to take two or more young men who can pass the necessary examinations and Who can come properly vouched for as to character and make them beneficiaries to .-.e extent of free education. In many cases the college agrees to aid the young men beyond free tuition. Tn several 5n- stances the colleges, recog nizing the slim- culttes under which the young men of Cuba have labored. nave agreed to receive them without insisting upon their passing the examinations.
