was announced in Washington SatfTe
day. The list includes almost entirely
officers who have served on the Yer
mont and at the New York navy yard
in connection with the repair and out
fitting of the Chicago. The Chicago
has been out of commission for nearly
three years, during which time she
has undergone almost a complete
transformation, with the result that
she is now one of the most formidable
vessels of the American navy. Her
speed has been materially increased
and her armor and armament greatly
strengthened. 1t is possible that she
may be attached to the feet which
Admiral sChley is to take to Europe.

PROFITLESS TRAIN ROBBERY.
a Hold-up That Resulted Disasrrously for
the Robbers.

BARsrow, CA1.-Tne first section
west bound, Santa Fe No. l, was
stopped two miles west of Daggett,
early Saturday morning by men seated
on the tender of the engine. Engineer
Bunnell was confronted by two 49,
calibre reyolyers and ordered to stop,
but this order was countermanded and
the train proceeded for about mile
and was then brought to standstill
at the command of the robbers, who
evidently expected to meet pals ct
this point. In this they were not dis
appointed and the robbers ordered
Bunnell to carry 20-pound bag of dy-
Mantle to the express car. Messen-
gers Hutchinson and Blakely appeared
at the door of the express car, armed
with guns. The robbers fired at
Blakely, who, locating them by the
flash of their guns, returned the fire,
killing one robber. The dead mans
left eye and all that side of his head
was torn away. The other robbers
stampeded and made their escape. A
posse is in pursuit and it is expected
at least one of them will be captured
shortly. The dead man has not been
identified. 1t is thought that the men
were novices at train robbing. They
secured no booty.

fell on his ears, and as soon as posi-
BILE he brought his train to a stop.
The passengers got out and aided the
trainmen in searching for the bodies

Not So Many Tooops Needed.

At the war department Saturday
there seemed to be an impression that
not nearly so many troops will be
needed in Cuba as was designated in
general order issued some time ago.
Then three corps were named and
their stations determined upon. Three
regiments were to be sent to the prov
ince of Cienfuegos, but now it seems
likely that no more than one regiment
will be sent there. Other points
where large garrisons were expected
will not have the quota assigned to
them, and perhaps not more than half
Of the troops first selected will have to
90 to Cuba.
