THE princess is quite satisfied with

how this rumOr has started. It has

It is the intention Of the prince and
princess to remain about three months

or two in New York. and later will
visit at several country homes.
II cannot say where we shall visit
said the prince. People have beer
very kind and we have not settled our

their plank on taxation, but they were

differences over the platform are as to

BANDITS HAVE MADE
GOOD THEIR ESCAPE

Butte. Mont, july San Inter Noun
tain special from Malta says all hope
Of capturing the Great Northern train
robbers has been abandoned. One by
one the men who accompanied the au-
thOrities on the chase to the southwark
have returned, and the general opinion
appears to be that the robbers have
made good their escape.
The men composing the sheriff's posse
sent out from Glasgow have despaired
of capturing the men and the chase
has been given up from this end Of the
line.
Hopes are entertained that the rob
bers may be apprehended while on their
way out of the state by the authorities
of the southern counties Of Montana.
Experienced trailers are firm in the be
lief that the robbers scattered as soon
as they were near the southern bOun-
dairy of the state and reached the Hole
in-the- Wall by circuitous routes.

morning, April q, I went to the White
House, sat with the president on a
sofa in the corridor, and earnestly ad-
vised the sending Of such an order But
for Admiral Crowninshield's statement,
I should have said unhesitatingly that
had gone with the dispatch, which
had been prepared in his bureau OF

proving, I returned to the navy de-

president. after his interview with me,
sent for some of the cabinet and Ad-
miral CrOwninshield and took up the
dispatch. which, according to my recol-

gave it final consideration. Probably
