CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-Patrick Crow. sus-
pected of being implicated in the daring
Northwestern train robbery between Maple
Park and Dekalb on the night of Oct -,
was arrested to-day in Chicago and has
been spirited away by the police. The
place of his confinement is kept secret.
Crows arrest is the result of a chase ex-
tending over a period of three months and
embracing territory of thousand miles.
Inspector Hunt kept the fact of Crows ar
rest a secret in the expectation of induc-
ing him to confess and give information of
his confederates 1t is understood that an
other reason for keeping Crows place of
confinement secret Is to elude, is possible,
a writ of habeas corpus, which the prison.
erS friends may secure. Crow, the police
say, has a notable record in criminal cir
cles. Several years ago. it is said, he held
ur the keeper of a resort on Clark street
and robbed her of $4,000 worth of jewels.

NEW FACTORY OPENED.

Concern mt Montpelier.

Concern mt Montpelier.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
HARTFORD CITY. Ind, Feb. 5.-The
blower tank factory of the National
Window and Bent-glass Company, at Mont
pelier, went into operation Saturday night,
and will give employment to $50 workmen.
This is the only glass factory of the kind
In the United States. The process for turn
ing out convex and concave glass was pat
ented by Leon Home and Father Charles
Dhe a Catholic priest, of this city. A
company was organized here with a capt.
tai of 100000, and Montpelier and Hartford
City began to bid for the enterprise. Mont
pelier outbid this city, and the company
received a large house, q free building site
and gas leases. The men who have taken
places in the concern are nearly all from
Hartford City and Muncie. While there is
a great scarcity of skilled window-glass
workers., the company had no trouble in
securing full corps of workmen on the
promise of nine months employment out
of the year. The start was very successful
in every respect, and the plant is said to
be the most conveniently arranged Of any
concern of the kind in the country.
The people of Montpelier are rejoicing
over the matter, as the resumption of the
factory more than makes up for the loss
of the mill of the American Tinplate Com
pany. The officers of the company are: r.
j. Kerlin. president: T. j. Driscol, vice
president; the Rev. Charles Die, secretary
and manager; James ODonnell. treasurer.

MANILA, Feb. 5.-Brigadier General
Kobbe's expedition to the islands of Luzon,
Leyte and Samar has occupied permanently
and garrisoned nine towns with the Forty
third and Forty-fourth regiments. This
has placed on the market 10000 bales of
hemp.
A thousand insurgents armed with rifles
and over 5000 armed with wooden swords,
bows and arrows, were encountered dur
ing the entire trip. The troops killed sew
enty-five natives, eleven of whom had
rifles. The others were villagers. armed
was one man killed and nine men wound
ed. The Americans captured $1,000 in gold
the enemy's money, and forty muzzle-load-
ing brass cannon. At Calbagog and Samar
the enemy evacuated the towns. the Amer
leans chasing, fighting and scattering them
to the mountains.
AT Catbalogan, Lukban, the Tagalo gen.
eral fired the place with kerosene just be-
fore the Americans landed, and then
fought with cannon and rifles from the
hills encircling the town for two hours
When the Filippinos were driven out
the Americans did their best to save
the town, fighting the fire several hours
Thirty stone and sixty other houses, half
the business portion of the place, were con-
sumed. The soldiers prevented the fire
from spreading. The next day Major AL
len, with three companies of the Forty
third Regiment, pursued Lubkan to the
mountain Businesses, and thence to the
coast town, where Lubkan was heading in
hopes of escaping. Lubkan. by taxing the
natives, has accumulated 100000 in gold
His capture is probable.
At Takloban, island of Leyte. the enemy
evacuated the town. and the Americans
pursued them to the hills. Several fleeing
noncombatants were killed, including three
women.
At Palo, seven miles distant. the enemy
was found intrenched, and resisted. Lieut.
enant Johnston and twelve scouts Of the
Forty-third Regiment drove out 15o Of the
enemy and captured the town.
The insurgents in these towns were most
ly visayans, who had been impressed into
the service of the Tagalo leaders from Lu-
zon. The visayans appear Indifferent OF
sullenly antagonistic to the American oc-
cupation. The Tagalo chiefs influenced
them against us, but when they perceive
we are much more powerful than the Taga-
los and intend to maintain garrisons in or
der to open the islands to commerce it is
believed the rebel party will lose its popu-
larity. The Americans are gladly accepted
by the Inhabitants. who are daily returning
cial vessels from Manila TO these new
ports.

J. K. Marsh, on the reconvening of the
Circuit Court this morning, delivered en-
phatic instructions to the grand jury. He
paid especial attention to the making Of
false affidavits, which the court says have
been numerous, in order to secure changes
of venue. He also mentioned the fact that
the making of false affidavits to secure
marriage licenses had also been practiced
so often that it was necessary for the
courts to take action. With reference to
the discrepancy in the office of County

tigation of the Office and indict the guilty
persons.
