~" w" ssNS~s ececCso wv
The southbound passenger train
on the Colorado and Southern rail-
way was robbed by four men at
point five miles south OF Folsom,
\. NJ, last night.
After the train was brought to
standstill and the crew intimidated
by guns, the robbers used dyna-
mite to a good effect, blowing open
the sides of the express car. The
officials declare nothing was secur-
ed by the robbers.
The superintendent left the
scene of the hold-up on a special
train accompanied by officers with
horses. He is confident he will be
able to overtake the robbers.
Passengers on the train werc not
molested. AS soon as the robbers
searched the express car they
mounted their horses and after fir
ing a few shots to alarm the train
men and passengers, fled without
anv attempt to go through the
mail car.
Parties who claim to know say
there was large amount OF money
in the express safe.

The ArdmoreIte VIII Make no Charge for
Mailing GOOD Times" Edition.

In answer to the many inquiries
made concerning the cost of copies
of the illustrated immigration books
to be published by this paper we
wish to state that not one of the
10000 copies will be for sale. All
our people have to do is to send us
in list of names of the parties to
whom they wish them sent and we
will do the rest at our own expense.
In this way nearly every copy of
this splendid publication will fall
on good ground and the result will
be the creation of a widespread
interest throughout the United
States in this section. With the
aid of the halftone engravings, as
an accompaniment to theIplain
commonsense writeup of the in
ducements we have TO offer the
capitalist and home seeker, this
book will, of necessity, be intensely
interesting to the thousands into
whose hands it will fall.
Mr.. Lockwood, who has come
here from Fort Worth to assist in
the compilation of the Good
Times" edition is already at work,
but it will be a month, at least,
before his labors will be completed.

Want the First Bale.

II. and B. Beer, the large cotton
firm of New Orleans, La, send
out their proposition to raise funds
for the flood sufferers in Texas,
they say:
We will pay the market price
and a premium of 800 for the
first bale of new Texas cotton this
season.
We purchased the first bale last
year and sent it to the president of
the United States to be sold for
the benefit of the United States
army hospital fund and it realized
over 5000 through the different
exchanges. We wish to leave the
disposition of the first bale of this
season if we secure it to the gov
enor of Texas, to be similarly dis
posed of for the benefit of the
food sufferers in that state, and
hope it will do as well if not better.

Wise Precaution.

A Washington special says: The
war department received notice
some days ago that the Filipinos
were organizing expeditions to in
tercept the American transports to
and from Manila most of which for
some time will be carrying volun-
teer troops.
1t is evident that very small
hostile craft with a single gun, es-
pecially rapid fire gun, could Sc
riously injure if not sink an un-
protected transport.
To meet this kind of attack two
transports are to be armed at once.
The navy has been called upon 20
supply the guns and ammunition
1t is planned to place one or two
six-pounders on each transport
and this will serve as sufficient
power to resist the attack of anv-
thing the Filipinos are likely to
bring against the ships.
The guns have been shipped from
the Brooklyn navy yard to the
Washington gun shops, where they
will be fitted for service. The
guns have been shipped to San
Francisco in due time to be used
on the outgoing transports, the
first of which will also carry guns
for the transports which may here;
after leave Manila with valuable
material. returning volunteers OF
discharged OF sick soldiers.

MAY TAKE SILVER THE ISSUE.
Democratic Expressions on the New
Republican Financial Bill.

Republican Financial Bill.
Washington, D. c., July H.
Two democratic senators today ex-
pressed the hope that it was true
that the republican caucus com
mittee had put into the financial
bill a declaration for the single
gold standard. Senator Daniel, of
Virginia, who was temporary chair
man of the convention which NOM
mated Bryan. thought that the
democrats could ask nothing better
than to have the issue thus pre-
sented in the next campaign.
Senator Bacon, of Georgia, with
real southern impressiveness, said
the adoption of such a declaration
by congress would sound the death
knell of the republican party.
Representative Livingston, of
Georgia said: The first effect of
the republicans taking that posi-
ton will be to solidify the free sill
yer forces. and to make the issue
of the next campaign inevitable.
1t will mean free coinage of gold
and silver, against the single gold
standard, and will absolutely assure
the nomination of Bryan by the
democrats. Free silver is to be in
the platform of the democracy, but
no one can tell now who will be
the candidate. For myself, | be-
lieve that Bryan will be nominated,
unless the situation should take
an unlocked for turn before next
summer; but we cannot tell this
early. However, in my opinion,
if the republicans align themselves
for gold early in the fight. as would
be done if their new bill declares
the standard, Bryan's prospects
would be materially aided. The
issue would be drawn farely and
squarely. There would be no ex-
cuse for running off after new
planks to put in the platform
and for new candidates. 1t would
be fight straight out between
monOmetalism and the use of both
metals in our coinage. With such
an issue Bryan would have to be
the logical candidate -
1t is noteworthy that the domo-
Gratis who hail with greatest enthu-
siasm the announcement of the re-
publican caucus committed action
are the radical free silver men. Mr..
Livingston represents their posi-
ton accurately. The issue for and
against gold standard would be
welcomed eagerly bv these demo
Gratis. 1t offers a way of escape
from the questions of expansion
and trusts, upon which the demo
Gratis are split, and it will check
the movement now showing
strength to beat Bryan out of the
nomination.

abandoned to the underwriters,
was fioated at s o'clock tonight.
One Danish and two German sal
wage vessels were Slowing the Paris
in order to aid the divers in their
work, when it was found that she
was free of the rocks. The wreck
erS then moved her several hundred
feet, taking her clear of the rocks.
She retains a big list to star
board. Pumps are coping with the
inflow of water, and it is expected
that she will be towed to Falmouth

mitting.
A dense fog, accompanied by
rain, prevails tonight, and if the
wind increases it is doubtful wheth-
