TRAIN ROBBER CONFEssEs
Men who Robbed Express Car Near
Macon, Ga , Captured

Macon, Ga, April &C. r. Jordan
was arrested in Atlanta tonight as the
second man in the robbery Of the
Southern Express Company's car on
the Georgia Central road between this
city and Gordon, Ga, on April 25th
last, and will be brought to Macon to
tomorrow morning by City Detective
Amezon.
O'Neill Fairfax Chestnut, who has
been locked up here for participation
lin the robbery under the name of Frank
Fairfax, broke Town when confronted
with the evidence against him and
made a III confession. His story Of
how he and Jordan committed the
crime bears out he statement made by
Express Messenger White, who was in
Icharge of the car at the time the rob-
berry was committed.
Chestnut's statement in substance is
las follolws:
Jordan and / have planned the rob
berry several times but each time we
postponed action. We made two runs
to Savannah. Hunger n craving for
liquor caused me to go into the agree
ment with Jordan. I was without work
land had been ever since I resigned my
job as engineer on the Seaboard Air
Line about a month ago. Jordan in
|duced me to come to Macon, saying he
could get me a job. I came here and
found that Jordan had lost his job as
baggage master on the Southwestern
and we were boil in hard luck. My
wife vas suing me for alimony in
Jacksonville and held up my 800
Ia month salary every month. That is
why 1 left there. Up to the time OF
going with the railroad as engineer I
had been a policeman in Jacksonville,
was sergeant when I gave up that job.
Until hen my RECORD had been as clean
as that of any man. My people lived
in North Carolina, but I do not care
to speak of them or their whereabouts.
1--WE jumped off the train while it
was going twenty miles an hour Both
lof us were knocked unconscious. We
were about six miles from Macon. /
lgained consciousness first and looked
flor Jordan. I found him and thought
The was dead. 1t was at least ten min
lutes before I could get him to breath.
we were so bewildered we took the OPP
lposite direction from Macon. We
Thought if we came back to Macon we
would never be suspected"

OUR TRADE WITH CUBA
quisites to ~creas Our Cotton
Goods Trade.

It's Apparent Decrease Explained-Re-
quisites to Increase Our Cotton
pod Trade.
Washington, April 29.-In a recent
statement given to the press by the
division of insular affairs of h wal
department a considerable loss was
indicated in the trade of Cuba with
the United States for the first eight
months of 1900 as compared with the
same period of 1899. 1t is now explain
ed by the division of insular affairs
that in the statement above referred
to the value of gold and silver coin
and bullion was included in the total
value of commerce between Cuba and
the United States. Eliminating the
coin shipments, it is a~Scertained that
instead of there being a decrease in
he value of imports into Cuba from the
United States there is an increase of
81, 222, 205 for the first eight months of
1900 yer the same period of 1899.
1t is pointed out that American man..
~ufacturers cannot expect to dominate
the Cuban trade unless they cater to
Cuban tastes. This is true of cotton
goods. 1t costs no more to bring a
cargo from Barcelona than from New
York and the Cubans, like the Mexi-
cans, have come to prefer the goods of
European make, and the European
manufacturers through long applica-
ton have come to know what these
people prefer and make the goods ex-
pressly for that market.
The cotton statistics of the United
States present one peculiar fact, name
ly: The large importation into Cuba
during the first eight months of 1899,
and the subsequent falling off during
the same period of 1900. There was
imported from the United States in
1899, cotton goods to the value of $780,
80 and in 1900 to the value of $279, S65.
The division of insular affairs explains
this or the theory that importers ex-
pested to secure under valuation if
they bought in the United but hav
discovered that under our regime all
goods are valued on merit.

THE COMMIsSARY FRAUDS
Trial OF Captain Reed at Manila-His
Excuse for Levying Contributions

Manila, April 29.-The trial of Captain
James C. Reed, former deport commits
sary at Manila, and who was arrested
about a fortnight g for alleged par
t~icipation in the commissary frauds,
was begun here today and bids fair
to develop into a celebrated case.
Captain Reed is charged with solicit
official misconduct.
Mr.. SCHNEIDER, manager OF a cigar
factory, testified that In November
Captain Reed had told him thai Major
George B. Davis, who was the depot
commissary before Captain Reed, but
who was sent to the United States on
sick leave and whose name appears
upon the books of Evans & Co., govern
ment contractors at Manila, as the re-
cipient of $1,000, was $4,000 short in his
accounts. Continuing Mr.. SCHNEIDER
testified hat those having profitable
contracts with the government were
asked to assist in making good Major
Davis deficiency. SCHNEIDER gave Cap
tain Reed $105, which was 2k per cent.
commission On the cigars sold to the
commissary department during the
time that Major Davis was depot
commissary at Manila.
An officer named Franklin, who was
assistant commissar- testified to the
effect that on March 18th, following
the direction Of a superior officer, he
obtained $1,000 from Major Davis and
paid this money over to SCHNEIDER.
Inspector General Darlington testi-
fed that during h preliminary inves-
tigation of the c0mmisSary scandals
Captain Reed admitted to him re-
ceiving money from SCHNEIDER and 9TH
ers and gave as an excuse that the
money so received was intended to
cover Major Davis beef shortage.
Lieutenant Richard HI. Towneley, of
the navy. at present superintendent of
the Manila nautical school, testified
that as the result of a conference with
Captain Reed, he went to see Castle
Brothers, contractors who supplied
the commissary department. with veg
etables, etc., and wanted them to give
Captain Reed $1,000 and 10 per cent.
commission on all sales. Castle Broth
ers demured to this proposition. Lieu
tenant Towneley again went to Castle
Brothers and this time only asked
them for $1,000. Castle Brothers were
reluctant to hand over this sum, and
Lieutenant Towneley explained that
Captain Reed was in a position to adj
vance the interest of the firm and
that it would be advantageous to
Castle Brothers to oblige him.
