Is A NEWSPAPER WOMAN.
Mrs. Wilson's Parents Are Highly
Esteemed People.

New York, June "A special to the
Press from Goshen, y. Y, says:
Mrs. Jennie Wilson, or Rarrow. who
has been arrested for tn kidnapping of
Marion CLARK, is the daughter of -Irs.
j. j. McNally of Goshen. Her father Is
the proprietor of the Goshen News, a
weekly paper, ana his daughter has DIT
times assisted him in the conduct OF ths
sheet. Mrs. S.cN&!ly s particularly
well-connec ed, being I, s,steI IF ''tO5 &c
Beebse, who. unit. recert.y. was -
judge of the court of claims.
Jennie left home about three wears
ago. and it is said she eloped with q
man from the south, whose name was
thought to be Wilson. but, according to
the stories told, is Barrow. They were
married, and have been living in New
York.
Mrs. McNally, when told of her
daughters arrest, was certain that
some mistake had been made. and said
her daughters name was not Jennie,
but Addie.
She does not know anything about
this case, I am sure, said the mother.
ASKED when she had seen her daugh-
ter last, the old lady said:
About two or three weeks ago.
"'Have you heard from her latefy?'
Yes; l had a letter from her two
or three days ago, and nave Just
written her in New York
Mrs. McNally was asked if she
would show the letter she had received
from her daughter, and she said she did
not know where she had put it. She
said her daughter was bright girl. and
visited Goshen nearly every week, to
assist her father in getting out the
paper.
las to the address the daughter had
in New York, the mother refused to tell
it, saying she preferred not to do So as
she was certain her daughter had not
taken any baby. She said her daughter
was % years old. and she had had one
child, but il had died. While giving
these few facts, Mrs. McNally broke
down. Her husband, who was present,
said:
You can't tell. You don't know
what will happen these days. OF course
can't believe anything of this kind,
unless 1 know it, but 1t may be right
THE old folks were much affected by
the news, and were anxious to learn all
the details of the CASE
The connection of the Barrow or Will
son woman with the case, it is thought,
may explain the white copy paper
used in the original letter signed
Three" The persons who have been
n the News office say there was no
paper of that kind used in the News

KEEP UTAH SHEEP MEN OFF
WILL NOT BE ALLOWED ON
COLORADO RESERVATION.
Superintendent May Says They Will
Not be Allowed to Craze Their
Herds There.
Especial to The Herald.)

Denver, Colo, June 2.-Colorado
cattlemen are somewhat excited over
the report that some of the Utah sheep
men who are grazing in the neighbor-
hood of the Uintah reservation are pre-
their herds. A meeting will be held in
Salt Lake City tomorrow to protest
against the order of the government
putting the sheep off the reservation.
Superintendent May of the forest re-
serves of Colorado and Utah, on whose
recommendation the order was made
says that he has four rangers guard
ing the reservation, and that he VIII
not consent to any recommendation.
I'VE put the sheepmen off the reser-
walton last summer" said Mr. May,
land they had plenty of warning of
what to expect this year. 1t is simply
a question of saving the reservation or
keeping the sheep out. If the govern
ment gives into the sheep, then it may
as well give up the reservation, for it
will soon be useless.
The department regards this reSer-
walton as one of the most important in
the west. 1t is the water source of nu-
merous small streams and rivers, more
particularly the Weber, Greet and Du-
chesne. If the reservation is given up
for the benefit of few sheepnlen the
thousands of farmers and citizens will
suffer eventually from lack of water.
The government has determined upon
its policy in this matter and intends to
stand by it. We have given the sheep
men plenty of warning.
Where win they go? There is plenty
of country yet. They can use the des-
erts, doing as they do in Australia. dig
wells for water. l am aware that it
will work a hardship upon few sheep
men, but the interests of the general
public must be Looked after, and they
are best subserved by keeping the
sheep off,"
superintendent May is firmly of the
belief that the protest of sheepmen will
not be needed by the government, but
that the order will stand.

Their Guilt.

London, June 3.-The Chronicle says

ing friday, with confidential friend,
and, after declaring that the time had
arrived when the whole truth should
be told, although hitherto, by reason of
constant orders and inducements, lie
had kept silent on the essential point,
made the following statement:
THE chiefs of the army have dis

When asked what the chiefs of the

shoulders, disdainfully replied:
He Holds the Proofs.
They will lie as they know how to

He then denounced the chiefs as a

AMOUNT OF BOOTY UNKNOWN
However, Sum Taken Is Believed to
Have Been LARGE.

Laramie. Wyo., June "A special
train left here at o'clock, taking a
posse of officers and horsemen with
their horses. They arrived at Wilcox
at $3.50 and departed Immediately in
pursuit of the robbers. The robbers
escaped on horseback and started
north.
In addition to the posse that left here
early this morning and were on the
trail at $50 a carload of horses and a
dozen men were brought east to Wilcox
this afternoon on the passenger train.
Another posse was organized at Dana.
and dispatched from that point as a
part of the plan to get the robbers sur
rounded as speedily as possible. Plans
were in preparation all day to place a
pack of trained bloodhounds on the
trail but it is understood this evening
that 1.-THE plan had been abandoned, as
a heavy storm this afternoon probably
obliterated the scent.
The amount of BOOTY secured is I'M
known. The shipments of money west
are said to have been unusually heavy
lately and from this fact estimates as
high as $4,000 have been made TODAY.
but railroads and express officials this
evening place the amount low. even to
a few hundred dollars. Those who
place the amount high do so largely
from the fact that a tremendous effort
is being made to catch the six men.
One hundred pounds of dynamite was
found today near the scene of the rob-
berry and a piece of a 800 bill was
found. This strengthens the theory
that they got a large sum.
There are three theories concerning
the robbery. One is that they are men
who have been working on the grades
that are being built for the new cut
offs. Another is that the men are a
part of the famous ''Hole-in- the Wall''
gang. The third theory is that Jack
Nolan heads the gang.
The express company has offered
reward of $1,000 for each robber dead
or alive.

NO CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS.
Cabinet Decides That There Is No
Necessity for Such.

Washington. June 1.-The cabinet at
Its meeting today decided there was no
present necessity for the enlistment of
volunteers.
The situation was gone over at the
cabinet meeting very fully before this
conclusion was reached. The president
stands ready at any time it may ap-
pear necessary to authorize the enlist
ment of the volunteers should more
men be deemed necessary, although
hoping that such a contingency may
not arise.
General Otis is to be given the 10000
men for whom he asked. The addition
al 5000 or 5000 troops to make the
10000 are to be taken from the regulars
now serving in Porto Rico, Cuba and
this country. The rainy season is now
on in the Philippines and aggressive
field operations will have to be sus-
pended for couple of months at least.

were found at several other places
along the track.
None Of the mail was interfered

1t was learned, Furthermore, that
when the robbers heard report that
two cars of soldiers were on the second
section, they exploded some giant pow

the track
When the robbers left, they walked
leisurely over to the hill where there
