GREEK BRTGANDS SMUGGLED In:
DEATHS AROUSE SUSPICION
Outlaws OutWt immigration Inspectors and Are Now at
Large-Three Bodies Will be hhumed by
the Chicago Poison TraceT

New York, Aug. 1.-Immigration
Commissioner Fitchie was told yes
terday that on Wednesday two notori-
Gus Greek brigands had managed to
pass throSgh the barge Office in the
guise of innocent immigrants. The
pair arrived here on the Dutch steam
ship Amsterdam from Amsterdam and
Boulogne on the 7th inst. Alcibiades
A. Seraphic, one of the immigration
inspectors, who is himself a native Of
Greece, ascertained the names under
which the men travelled and learned
that one of them had hurried to Chi
cago and the other was still in this
city. The latter, it is said, remained
behind for the purpose of sending
word through the Greek consul here
that he had fled from his native land
and that he never expected to return
home again. This notification under
the decree declaring the men brigands
and Offering 10000 francs for their
heads or 10000 francs apiece for the
criminals II caught alive in Greece, re-
lieves their relatives at home from the
suspicion that they were sheltering the
brigands from the penalty of the law,
which is death. The two men who
succeeded in outwitting the barge Of
ficials are alleged to have operated for
nearly ten years in the province Of
Lacedemonia, Sparta, and that during
that time they kidnapped many wealthy
Grecians, who we're afterwards ran
somed, and they also murdered a num-
Der of others, including detectives and
soldiers sent into the mountains to

Travelled under the names of Peter
Surlis and Seacharis Sakellaris. It
was the latter who went to Chicago.

The remains Of the unknown woman
found floating In the Iowa river on July
3 u last have finally been inferred.
Coroner Lierle and Undertaken Will
bur have investigated clue after clue
that might possibly lead to the identi-l
fcation of the woman. but without re-
suit. The time for the interment OF the.
body was once fixed, but facts came to
light in connection with the disappear
ance OF women in various parts of the
country that caused them to delay the
last services until now. Friday the
last remaining clue was found to
amount to naught and therefore the re.
mains were taken to the county farm

lie burying ground at that place. The
woman's identity, the manner and
cause OF her death will probab lytremain
a mystery.
This burial at the county. farm is the
first made under a new rule adopted by
the board Of supervisors at the present
session and hereafter all paupers and.
unclaimed bodies from this city will be

since that time the county has been
paying $3.50 each for single lots for in
gterments OF this character. This ex-
pense to the county has been quite
heavy and the board, In view OF the
fact that the county has burial
ground at the county farm. decided to
adopt a new rule, and has 30 notified

Worlds Best Record For q Long Run
Is Beaten in the Trip From
Omaha to Des Noines
Record Shows 2O3 $40 Niles We're
Made in 2O4 Minutes, Deduct.
ing Time For STOPS.

The T. Rs dispatches Of Tuesday
made mention Of the fact of the remark
able run made by Engineer Valentine
OF the Northwestern, in pulling the big
8shriners train from Omaha to Des
Moines, upon the occasion OF the insti-
tuition of the Za-Ga-Zig temple. The
schedule Of the train was one OF the
fastest eyer made for passenger run,
and the report of Road Foreman Of En-
giness f. E. Allen, to Master Mechanic.
Bentley at Clinton. shows that the
worlds record for fast time was made.
The distance OF the run was 203.3 miles,
and the time 204 minutes. The average
of mile minute for over 200 miles, as
can be easily comprehended, is some
thing phenomenal The run was made
with engine No. 21s, known as a Glass
c. locomotive, built by the company to
haul the new fast mail, No. 9, and the
Colorado specials The fast time is still.
more phenomenal when it Is considered
that at present the track between Car
roll and Ames isin a soft condition, ow-
ing to the double track work, which is
in progress on the west end. The Moin-
gona hill is another hard piece of track
that had to be encountered in the run.
The train was due at Des Moines at
1920, and arrived at 1919, one minute
ahead of time. The train was four min
utes ahead of schedule time at Boone,
and left that city four minutes late At
the end of the run the mammoth engine
was ii, perfect condition. and Engineer
Valentine remarked that she could turn
around and make the same trip back
without hurting her.
The detailed report of the road fore
man. showing all delays, etc, is as fol-
lows:
H. T.. Bentley, Master Mechanic,

of run on shriners' special, Sept. 4. 1s0O:

delayed at Missouri Valley 2 minutes for
orders: delayed at Logan 4 minutes for
No. 1; delayed at Carroll 4 minutes for
water; delayed at Boone S minutes for
passengers delayed at Ames minutes
for water and to go around the Y; four
railroad crossing stops
Had three different slow orders and
SLOWED up six other places for bad
tracks, ar 4 curves. Deducting a Ioss Of
two minutes for each Glow order, slow
up and railroad crossing stop, would
make twenty-six minutes together with
the time lost standing at stations. TWEEN
ty-five minutes would make total of
sfifty-one minutes lost, figuring nothing
for the time lost in stopping and start
ing at places where station stops are
made. This would make the actual run
ming time from Omaha to Des, Moines. a
dis lance of 20S.3 miles, in 2O4 minutes.
The train consisted of one baggage car
three chair cars one dining car and one
private car. Total weigh of train and
engine, $50 tons. Yours truly,
