SEARCH REVEALED BIG ROLL
OF SAME KIND.
Man and WOMAN ARRESTED
Supposed to Be Connected With
Robbers of Great Northern
Express.

st. Louis, Nov. 6.-The police have
in custody at the four courts a man
and a woman suspected of compile.
ity in the robbery OF, an express car
on the Great Northern railway near
Wagner, Mont, July 8, last, when the
safe was blown open with dynamite
and a consignment of unsigned notes
for the Montana National bank, of
Helena, Mont, amounting to between
$4,000 and 100000 was stolen. OF
this amount $500 in crisp new notes
on the Helena bank were recovered,
having been found in possession OF
the man and woman, who were regis
tered at the Laclede hotel as Mr.. and
Mrs. J. w. Rose. They arrived at
the hotel last Friday and announced
that their stay in the city would prob
ably last several weeks. Last night
the man was taken into custody and
today the woman was arrested just
as she was about to leave the city.
Their arrests followed the flashing Of
several notes on the Helena National
bank that were supposed to have been
stolen and the signatures forged.
Both prisoners were taken before
Chief Desmond today and examined.
A photograph of the man was taken
and measurements made according to
the Bertilleon system. Through these
and circulars giving a description of
the robbers, the police identified Rose
as Harry Loughbaugh, alias "Kid"
Loughbaugh, alias Harry AlonZo.
Lillian Rose, is the name given by
the oma Both prisoners were ex.
amined at some length but little was
learned from either.
Late this afternoon Loughbaugh ad-
mitted to Chief of Detectives Des-
mond, under the sweating process,
that all of the money, $500 taken
from him and Lillian Rose, belonged
to him, but he would not say where
he secured it. This money has been
identified from descriptions as part
of the loot of the Great Northern
train robbery in Montana, July 3, last.
Chief Desmond searched the trunk
which was captured with the woman
and found therein a small pocket
dictionary, on the of which was
written Wagner, Mont" On the fly
leaf was inscribed a note supposed to
have been written by Lillian Rose.
The prisoners are being held to
await information from the Montana
authorities, who have been tele-
graphed about the arrests.

LIGHT VOTE IN MARYLAND.
Both Parties Claim to Have Carried
the State.

Baltimore, Nov. 5.-Returns to hand
up to IL o'clock show a tremendous
falling off in the vote both in the city
and the counties and indicate that the
democrats have been victorious, al
though it is impossible to give any
figures because of the meagre returns.
It seems highly probable that no
more than $4,000 votes have been poll
ed in Baltimore as against 100000
cast two, years ago at the municipal
elections. Chairman Goldsborough, of
the republican state central commit
ree, still clai:. S. to lave elected his
ticket and asserts that the republi-
cans will have a II ajority on joint
ballot in the general assembly, while
Chairman Vandiver, of the demta
cratic committee, makes a like claim
for his party.

Iowa Unanimous.

Des Moines, Ia, Nov. 5.-The re-
suit in Iowa is remarkable. With
a marked falling off in the vote
througout the state, the loss in some
precincts being 40 to so per cent in
the total vote and the average loss for
the state being one-fifth the total of
two years ago., A. B. Cummins, the
republican candidate, has been elect
ed by a plurality of something like
80, 900, the largest ever given a gov
ernor in this state. The entire repuD-
lican state ticket is elected by similar
pluralities and some extraordinary
gains have been made.

Legislature Republican.

Columbus, Nov. 5.-With the ex-
ception of this county, where the re-
suit is attributed to the liquor lea
que and to Kilbourne's popularity, the
republicans have made gains. on the
returns received up to $3.50, at which
hour the republicans claimed a plur-
atty in Ohio much greater than two
years ago, when Nash's plurality was
49,O23. This will make the legislature
surely republican in both branches.

Gle, Lorenzo d. Carter, and his broth
er, I. Stanton Carter, were said to
have reinvested this money in secur-
tiles for the purpose of having a for
tune ready for the former army officer
upon his release from the military
prison.
Difficulties were encountered by the
representatives of the government in
getting trace of the securities which
were said to represent this amount,
and at last they signed an agreement
with Carter's legal representative,
Horace G. Stone, by which a rehear-
ing of all the charges brought against
the. former captain of engineers was
made possible.

TAMNANY HALL REPUDIATFD
AT POLLS.
THROUGHOUT YORK STATE
Republicans are Generally Success
tul-Will Control Lower
House.

New York, Nov. 6, l a. NJ, With
the election of Seth Low as mayor,
Charles H. Forbes is president of the
board Of aldermen and Ed
ward M. Grout as comptroller, the
fusionist triumph in Greater New
York appears nearly complete. Many
of the fusion leaders expressed pre-
election fears that even though Seth
Low might be elected mayor he would
find himself in the position of a presi-
dent of the United States confront
ed by a hostile congress, since under
the newly adopted city charter the
presidents of the various boroughs
are given greatly increased powers.
The latest returns, however, indicate
that the fusionists have elected
Jacob A. Cantor president of the
borough of Manhattan; ]. Edward
Swanstrom president of borough Of
Brooklyn and George Cromwell pres
ident of the borough of Richmond.
The borough presidency in the Bronx
e to be in doubt, James Wells,
%fusionist, and Louis F. Haffen, demo
crat, both claiming the prize. The
democrats are certain Of one borough
president, Joseph Cassiday elected in
Queens, owing to a split between the
republicans and the citizens union
party.
These results, unless modified by
the official figures, will give. the flu
sionists complete control of the tax
ing machinery of the city as well as
of the various boards concerned in
the distribution of the public funds.
Perhaps the greatest surprise Of
the election next to the defeat in
Staten Island of Congressman Nicho-
las Muller, who was a candidate for
borough president in the borough of
Richmond, is the apparent triumph
of the fusion county ticket in the old
city and county Of New York: Mayor
Van Wyck ran heavily behind his as
sociates on the judicial and county
tickets. The election of William Tray
ers Jerome, fusionist, over Henry w.
Unger, democrat, is admitted by all
parties.

Throughout the State.

Reports received from the various
sections of New York state show that
the republicans will have control of
the lower house of the state legisla-
ture, the number of republican and
democratic assemblymen not differing
materially from the figures of pre-
cedeing years. In the various mum,
cipal contests reported from up the
state, the most interesting elections
noted we're those of Albany, Troy,
Rochester, Syracuse and Buffalo. The
city Of Albany was carried by the re-
p%ublicans, ex-senator David B. Hill
taking no active part in the local
canvas The election in Troy was a
lively one, a number of arrests for
illegal voting being made. Former
United States Senator Murphy, head
ed the fight for the candidate of the
democrats while former Governor
Black managed the campaign for the
progressive democratic-republican
ticket. Seymour Van Santwoord, the
candidate for mayor supported by ex-
Governor Black. was easily elected.
In Buffalo the entire republican city
and county tickets were elected, Eras-
tus C. Knight, the state comptroller
being chosen mayor. The result in
Rochester was close, but Mayor
Warmers friends claim the election of
the republican candidates.

STOCK HOLDING COMPANY
CONTENDING N. P. INTERESTS
HARMONIZED.
Agreement Reached by Hartman
Syndicate and President Of
Great Northern.

New York, Nov. 1.-THE Times to-
morrow will say: The main points in
the settlement of the Northwestern
railroad tangle have at last been
agreed upon. This statement was
made yesterday by a member of the
Hartman syndicate, and also by j.. j..
Hill, president of the Great Northern
railway. The details remain unset
tied, however, and it is possible some
of the main features may be Slightly
modified. 1t is expected, neverthe-
less, that the plan in it's entirety will
be completed by the end of the week.
The principle features of the set
Element plan are the reorganization
of the stock holding company and
the decision not to retire the North
ern Pacific preferred stock. The lat
ter proposition was the one on which
centered the major part of the dis
%cussion, and, it is stated, that con-
permanent peace could only be OBJ
tanned by a due recognition of their
rights, finally Won
In the new stock holding company,
by which the various stock issues are
to be funded, the former ~contending
interests will be equally represented.
The Northern Pacific directors will
meet next week to act on the divi-
dend and they probably. will consider
the question in relation to settlement.
The current arrangement involves
a definite understanding as to the
control of the Burlington system on
the terms declared to be satisfactory
to the Union Pacific interests. What
these terms are was not stated but it
Is learned on reliable authority that
the arrangement is one of a very
definite character, which will prevent
any extension of the Burlington sys-
tenn.

CROKER GIVES UP.
Says Silent Vote Accomplished Tam
many's Downfall.

New York, Nov. 5.-Richard Croker at
S:45 o'clock tonight conceded the cleo
ton of Seth Low, fusion candidate for
mayor, but Mr.. Croker was not willing
at that time to give up the county ticket.
He was disappointed at the Brooklyn
vote as he had expected Mr.. Shepard to
make a good showing there, it being his
home borough.
AS to the cause of the defeat of the
democratic ticket Mr.. Croker said he
was inclined to ascribe it to the large
silent vote and the fact that the people
sometimes feel that they van a change.

NEW. JERSEY REPUBLICAN.
Majority on Governor Estimated at 1000
to 10,

Newark, N. j., Nov. 5.-Early returns
received from all points in the state indi-
cate that Murphy, republican, for COVER
nor, has been elected and that the cleo
ton is now simply a matter of plurality.
The returns thus far received indicate
that Murphy will have a larger plurality
in the state than Worries did two years
age. The republicans claim the state by
10000. The returns thus far indicate
the election of Murpy by at least 1000.

cans to-day carried Ohio by such an
increased plurality on their state tick
ct and with such an enlarged major
ity in the legislature as to cause all
sorts of comments on what did it,"
The result continues the republic
cans in power in the state, making
an epoch of IL years in succession for
that party in Ohio, and it insures the
reelection of Senator Foraker.
The extent of the republican sue
cess is attributed to the silver demo-
Gratis not voting, 10 the attitude of
John R. Mclean, the democratic can
didate for governor two years ago., and
the Ohio member of the national COM
mittee, and the superior organization
of the republicans.
The republicans attribute the result
largely to the popular desire not to
disturb the prevailing prosperity, in
accordance with Senator Hanna's ap-
peal to ''let we'll enough alone;" to the
uCollC W ouppOlC / 1Co1uCAC IkOO0O-
welt in carrying out the policies of

Columbus, O., Nov. 5.-Returns up

GAINESVILLE, Portsmouth, Canton,
Springfield, Toledo and other cities,
the notable exception being Columbus,
the home of both Governor Nash and
James Kilbourne, the democratic can
didate for governor.
The greatest republican gains are
outside the large cities. Some of the
democratic counties report the largest
republican gains. A notable exception
in the rural districts was found in
Pike and Adams counties, which joint
ly elected a democratic member of
the legislature for the first time in
eight years.

committee had no claims to make on
the state ticket or the legislature. Col
onel Kilbourn said he felt better over
carrying his home city and Franklin
county, with a democratic gain of
over 5000 than if he had been elected
governor without carrying Franklin
county. Chairman Dick at 10 o'clock
gave out a statement that the repub-
leans had carried the state by over
$4,000 with a decisive majority in
each branch of the legislature.
The greatest republican demonstra-
ton here tonight was over the returns
from Toledo showing that Nash had
carried Lucas county together with
the legislative ticket. AS Governor
Nash had opposed the state appro-
priation for the proposed Ohio centen-
nail exposition in that city, it was
expected that he would lose that
county.

Duncan Ross, the Scotch athlete,
brought to New York with him some
years ago valuable bull terrier, IA
nous for the blue ribbons he had won
in India. Mr.. Ross lived across the
Harlem river, but his business took
him daily to the lower part Of New
York. Invariably he was accompanied
to his Office by the bull terrier. AS 1t
was known that he always came down
town on the elevated railroad, his
friends wondered, knowing the embar
so placed upon dogs, how he procured
transit for the bull terrier.
Their repeated questioning finally
persuaded him to reveal the secret, and
he invited them all to the office one
evening just ms he was starting for
home. He took out of his desk stout
piece of wrapping paper and, opening
it out fiat, spread it on the floor. Then
he whistled to the dog, and the bull
terrier walked to the center of the pa
per and curled up in limp lump. Mr..
Ross then produced a piece of stout
cord and made very neat parcel Of
his pet and tucked it under his arm.

down town for two years" he said,
"and no one has ever had the faintest
suspicion of its animated contents.
Give is so well trained that he never
makes a sound or moves a muscle.

package, SO that he has plenty of air."

4 E1Ow From behind,

zone winter, when things were rath-
Er slow in New York city-it was just
before John Us time'-said the old pu-
gilist, 1--WE made up little party and
hired hsll in one of the fishing towns
not far away. We advertised a prize
Of $40 for any one vino could stay on
his feet against our men for five
rounds. 1t was safe money, although
when two or three of tlNe boats came
in at the same time we had all we
could handle.
But one night fellow as big as the
side of house came along, and we
smelled trouble. We put him up
against the heaviest man in our par
ty, who, though he only tipped the
scales at $50 pounds, had two good
hands and head that you couldn't
hurt with a piledriver. But the stran-
ger was no slouch, and at the end Of
the fourth round we began to worry
about the tenner.
THE ring was on the stage at the
front of the hall, and at the rear of the
stage there were two windows. So l
says to our man as l sponged his
mouth Work him over to one of the
windows
at wasn't no easy job, but he did
It before time was half up, and as the
duffer backed up near the window he
got a crack in the head from behind
that dumped him in heap. That's
the way we saved our ten.
"But the funny part of it is that our
champeen had caught the local guy on
the jaw the same moment and we
could never persuade him that 1t
wasn't himself that secured the knock
out."-New York Sun.
