There IS a very bright prospect Of the
approaching resurrection Of the glass
industry on the South Side through the
requirement OF the Hobbs glass house
from the United States Glass Company
by a syndicate Of local people, headed
by United States Senator n. B. Scott.
As related In yesterdays InteIllgencer,
President D. c. Ripley OF the United
States Company, made an appointment
to meet Senator Scott here yesterday.
Mr.. Ripley and Senator Scott met at
noon, and the proposed deal was dis
cussed Mt considerable length. Mr.. Rip
ley agreed to call meeting OF the
United States Glass Company's board
OF directors at once, when he would
place before 1t the matter Of disposlng
OF the South Side plant to the local
people. 1t Is given out that the deal
will very likely be put through, and
that In the not distant future the old
Hobbs plant will be in operation after
a term of idleness nearly concurrent
with It's ownership by the United
States Company. This will be the best
Of news to the business people Of the
city and to many glassworkers whose
homes and interests are on the South
Side. When the time comes to open
the stock books of the new company
there is little doubt but that the full
Issue of stock will be taken up readily.
The tableware branch Of the glass busl-
ness is exceedingly prosperous just
now, and the new concern would easily
command a paying business from the
start

London, Oct. 16. - According TO dis
patches from the front the Beers have
made several attacks upon Mafeking,
all of which have been repulsed.., .
In connection with the rumored at
tack upon Mafeking a.disquieting re-
port comes from Pretoria to the effect
that the Rustenburg and Marico COM
mandoes have crossed. the border and
entered the Rooigrond territory be-
tween Lichtenburg and Mafeking, blow
ing up the bridge over the Maloppo
river, and destroying train load Of
dynamite and the track, 80.
AS Mafeking depends upon Roof
grond for its water supply, the sig
nifcance of this move is evident.
Blow Up Another Train.
The Exchange Telegraph company
has received dispatch from Cape
Town, dated Saturday morning, say
ing that the Beers have blown up an
other armored train, carrying tele-
graph operators from Mafeking.

Are Arrested.

Chicago, Oct. 16. ~ Bloodhounds and
scores of armed men are securing the
country in the neighborhood of De-
,Kalb and Elburn in search of the BAN
dts who Friday night held up the west
bound Northwestern fast mail,
,dynamited the American Express COM
pany'ssafe and escaped with an amount
estimated at from $1,000 to $4,000.
Early in the morning three suspects
were taken at Elmhurst from a Chicago
Great Western train and were lodged in
Jail there. Officials at work on the case,
however, have little hope that the men
under arrest are the robbers, as the sus-
poets had; but $40 onftheir persons, and
are not, in appearance, like the bandits,
as described by the crew of the fast
mail. The three men in Jail at Elm
hurst appear more like tramps than
like. the. daring robbers who figured in
Friday night hold-up. :
The story of the hold-up is as dra-
matte. as any since the days of the
James boys and their fearless gang. AS
reported to the officials of the North
western road. by the agent at Elburn, it
has sensational features enough to
make it typical yellow-back romance.
According to this report there were
five men in the gang, although the train
crew insists the job was done by three.
