A DARING CRIME.
A Lone Highwayman Holds UP N
Stage Coach Near North River, N. v.

Glens Falls. y. Y, Aug. 15.-News
was received here last night that the
Blue Mountain stage was held up by
a robber at noon Wednesday at North
River.
The stage which was stopped con-
meets with a train which reached
North Greek, Warren county, at 10: 90
a. m. When it left the station il
contained seven men and one wo-
man.
When the stage was one and one
half miles north of Dunlap's hotel, at
North River, a masked robber sud-
denly appeared. His first move was
to shoot one of the horses. He then
ordered the passengers to hold up
their hands and alight. Six of the
men immediately took to the woods,
the remaining man staying with his
wife, who was relieved of $50, but
the rohber failed TO find larger sum
in another pocket.
The highwayman then proceeded to
rifle the mail bags and plunder the
express packages, taking everything
of value. After he had done his
work he disappeared into the woods
and searching parties have been un-
able to find any trace of him.

RANGER TO SAIL AT ONCE.
United states Cruiser Vow Mt San
Diego Ordered to Proceed
to Panama,

Washington, Aug. ia telegram
has been prepared at the navy depart
ment to be forwarded to the Iowa i'm
mediately upon her arrival at San
francisco, ordering her to prepare at
once to go to sea. When she advises
the department. that she is ready an
order will follow for her to proceed at
once to Panama. The little cruiser
Ranger, which is at San Diego. was or
dered to sail Friday. 1t is not believed
that there will be any delay in her de-
parture, as she has had several days
notice in which to prepare for the sea.
She is very slow, however, making not
more than six knots, and as the dis
tance to Panama is about 2,700 miles it
would require almost Is days for her
to reach her destination. The de-
partment, therefore, decided to dis
patch the Iowa as soon as the battle
ship arrives az San Francisco and can
prepare for the trip.
If necessary the Iowa will land
marines to protect the Panama rail-
road for its entire length across the
isthmus to Colon. Secretary Hay is
determined to not only safeguard
American interests but to fulfill the
treaty obligations of the United
States towards Colombia.
All reports to the state department
confirm the belief that q concerted
movement is on foot to combine the
republics of Venezuela and Ecuador
and to force Colombia into the combi-
nation.
San Francisco, Aug. 1.-THE battle
ship Iowa arrived from Puget Sound
Friday afternoon.
San Diego. Cal, Aug. 1.-THE United
States steamship Ranger, under or
ders to proceed to Panama has been
taking on supplies and will sail at
three p. m. to-day.

partment Friday issued the following:
1.-THE department of state is advised by

tion of returning to his post Mr. Russell

ister's absence. Mr.. Russell does not state
that he has assumed charge of Colombian
interests, as he was authorized to do If re-
