A BIG HAUL.
A Rumor That the American Express
 Company Lost $1, ,0C0 ,0OO

New York, Jan. 6.-The Evening Telegram prints a report which has not been verified that the American Express company was robbed last night of $1,00O,000 which had been given it for transportation. The money was said to have been taken from one of its cars in its through western ex- press while the train was being made up in the yard at Forty eighth street. The officers of the company refuse to talk regarding the robbery. The western express leaves the Grand Central yards at S:15 and goes through to Chicago, dropping off cars at inter mediate cities. There are eleven cars in this train usually which carries nothing but express matter. Large sums of money are frequently sent west on this train According to the report received by the Telegram the clerks found the money bags rihed when they reached their car The rob bers had evidently been watching the method of handling the money shipped on this train.

A CHICAGO PERFORMER.
Wants Men, Women and Children Rep.
 Off Streets After D. m.

Chicago, Jan. 6.-Alderman Coughlin of the First ward is preparing a cur few ordinance for this city, He threat ems to introduce the measure in the city council January 10. He will try to improve upon the curfew law of Evanston. While he thinks the scheme Of keeping children off the streets af- ter o'clock at night is a good one, he would send men, women and chil- dren to their homes at that hour. In- cfdentally the statesman of the First ward thinks there would be created 10000 places for curfew bell ringers. The civil service commissioners will have to examine applicants for these places. The alderman will give his constituents the tip when to take the examinations and thereby be sure of the patronage.
 "'I would have the curfew bell sounded at g o'clock each night from the ssteeple of every church and the roof of every school house," said the alderman today. Woe be unto the citizen or stranger who needed not the warning. Adults cause more trouble in streets than do children. If the home is a good place for children it should be all right for adults. My motive in this is the desire to pure

THE HARVEY PATENTS.
Navy Department Seeking to Avoid
 Paying Further Royalties.

Washington, Jan. 6.-It is ascer- tained at the navy department that the decision of the patent off ce experts, recently submitted in the matter of the -patents for the Harveyized armor plate, may resnk in the withholding of the payment of further royalties on plate furnished by the large sseel companies. The question submitted by Secretary Long to the patent of flee was whether the employment of a temperature above that of molten cast iron is an essential feature of the liar vey patents and the experts reached the conclusion that such heat was an essential feature of the device.
 The navy department armor plate experts are of the opinion that the highest temperature is not essential to the obtaining of the most satisfac- tory face hardened plates. The use of temperature not quite SO high as that covered by the Harvey process is not regarded by them as an infringe ment of the Harvey patents.

THE OHIO MUDDLE
Seaater Hanna's Strength Re-
 duced to Seventy
HE IS JUST THREE SHORT
The Opposition Say He W{ll
 Continue to Wane
They Claim That They Will Have No Trouble In Finaing a Man Upon Whom All the Anti Hanna Men Can Agree.

Columbus, O., Jan. GA conserva- tive estimate tonight placed the legis- lative vote at 75 to 70 against Hanna. Friends of the senator claim seventy one votes and an assurance of the necessary two additional votes and possibly four. The opposition insist that Hanna will never have seventy votes on joint ballot and that they have gained two votes since the legis- lature adjourned over until Monday. Before the chairmanships of commit tees and preferred places and other patronage are disposed of, the oppo- sition say that the Hanna vote will be reduced considerably below seventy, which is three short of enough to elect
 The opposition to Hanna consists of the sixty-fve democratic members and ten republican members. Included in the list of those supporting Hanna are Representatives Drost and Lane, si1- yer republicans, fusionists from Gin cinnati who are counted on for Ger rard. Developments today indicated that Gerard would not only be voted for on ballots for senator, but that he might lead on the first ballot if pres ent efforts are successful to make him a free silver republican candidate. So far the opposition to Hanna is not only holding its own, but it has extended beyond all plans provided for previous to the caucus last Saturday night.
 
 The opposition managers say that they are having no trouble in finding a candidate for whom all the boiling republicans and democrats will vote The bolting republicans are unanimous in declaring that they cannot vote for any democrat under any circumstances for senator. Enough democratic members to give the managers trouble and anxiety say they do not want to vote for a republican for senator. And this Is the situation at present.
 A PARTY'S PROTEST.
 Columbus, O., Jan. GA call was, issued tonight by the republican state executive committee for a. mass con- vention of republicans to be held in this city next Monday to protest against the attempt to defeat Senator Hanna.

STEEL RAILS FOR INDIA.
Another Cargo Shipped by Maryland
 Steel Company.

New York, Jan. 6.-Another cargo of steel rails is about to leave this country for India. The steamship Inchmona arrived here this morning from Baltimore with large consign- ment of steel rails from the Mary land Steel company for Calcutta. The vessel will take on some general cargo at the Atlantic docks, Brook lyn, after which she will proceed on her long voyage to Asia.
 This is the second lot of American steel rails to go to India.
 The steamship Sahara of the same line, of which Norton & Son are the New York agents, took like cargo to Calcutta early in December. The agents say it pays to ship the rails in spite of the long distance.
