FEAR UPRISING IN MANILA

Increase Made in Order to Pre-
pare for Possible Outbreak.
Mauila, August 26.-In the
city of Manila there are now less
than 1000 effective soldiers, and
it has been decided to increase
this number by four companies of
infantry. The official reason for
the increase is that the guard du-
ty is too heavy for the present
force.
AS matter of fact, howe yer,
there is feeling that, in the
event of an uprising in the future,
such as is always possible among
the Malays, it would be better to
have sufficient body of troops
available for such an emergency,

Hang the Train Robbers.

Richmond Evening Leader Aug. %.
We have long believed and con-
tended that the crime of train-
robbery should be punished with
death, upon the apprehension of
men who commit that dastardly
crime. When desperate men
start out to hold up train and
rob the expre ess car and the pas
sengers, they start out with the
determination to commit murder
or any other crime if necessary
to carry out their purpose. They
are murderers at heart, and they
should be treated as such.
AS an illustration, we point to
the report sent out last night by
the Associated Press of the train
robbery in Texas. The train was
stopped and the engineer covered
with pistols in the hands OF the
ROBBERS. They were held under
cover while other members of the
gang went to the express car and
ordered the messenger to open
it. The messenger declined and
they threatened to blow him up
with dynamite. He still declined
and they did recklessly use dyna-
mite in breaking into the car.
Having entered the car they blew
the safe open with the same ex-
plosive and rif1ed it. Then they
got hold Of the mail pouches and
rifed them. Having completed
that part of the job they went
into the passenger coach and,
carrying mail sack with them,
compelled the passengers to give
up their money and valuablas.
Having stolen everything in
| sight they still hung around the
car aud iaughted at the passeng-
ers and terrified them, and finally
when their carnival of crime and
| ghoulish glee was ended, they
jumped on their horses and rode
away. They beat one man and
would have committed murder
had they been resisted.
Fortunately these desperate
chaps have been captured, and
we say that they should be made
an example of. The law is moi
supposed to be revengefu], but
in order to the protection O1
society it is necessary that high
handed crime of this character
be punished in such way as te
deter others from attempting it
It is impracticable for trains
which go across the continent tt
be always prepared to meet al
attack of this character. and 81
the only protection that tht
raveling public has in such case:
| is the protection Of the law. W,
believe that these train-robbers
in Texas should be hanged by th'
neck, every one of them. Train
robbery will not cease until train
robbers are dealt with in thi
way.

FOR WARM SPRINGS
TWO CRAZY MEN TO BE TAKEN
THERE TOMORROW,
MAYER AND ALSO MORTIMER
Mayer Still Yelling and Rowling in
His 'Ceil-Mortimer Has Lucid
Cleans About Money-Iden-
tity Still Unknown.

Martin Mortimer and George Fl.
Mayer, the two men aGj1saged crazy in
Judge Clancy's court yesterday morn
ing, will be taken to the asylum at
Warm Springs tomorrow. 1t was in
tended to get Mortimer off for his flu
ture home this morning, but the mat
ter was delayed by other business
Mortimer is undoubtedly crazy on
religion, but his mind seems fairly good
IN dealing with some other matters. He
had SIS in money on his person and it
was very cleverly concealed. The bills
We're carefully enclosed in two or three
paper wrappers and hidden inside Nor
timers undershirt at the bosom.
Mortimer insisted upon preaching in
Judge Clancy's court and called himself
the godfather and king of the world
But when the money was taken from
him he said:
There's SIS in that roll and it belongs
to me. If you don't find that right,
then I'm crazy
Also. when his preaching was inter-
rupted in the court. he said that he
would stay and be examined. when the
officers started to take him out.
"I'll sit down and you can examine
me and see if I'm mad he said.
But, nevertheless, he broke out and
began to preach again very soon, hav-
ing forgotten where he was. He is as
mad as March hare on religion, but
he seems to have lucid CLEANS on other
matters. The readiness with which he
seemed to understand the nature of the
proceedings when his examination was
held suggests the thought that he has
been tried some where else some time on
the same charge.
Nothing has been learned of his iden-
tity at the Jail or sheriff's office today,
and nobody had come forward to assert
friendship or relation to him. He seems
to be a waif who has drifted into Butte.
Even whether Mortimer is his true name
or not is not known.
Some days ago man called on a
priest at Anaconda and borrowed %
cents from him. He then took 50
it to another priest who was in the
room. He said he was in need of work
and the religious fathers told him to
call the next day and they would give
him work. The next day On of them got
a letter from the man in which he asked
for a loan of 50. An effort was made
to find him again then, but he disap-
peared suddenly and nothing more was
heard of him. That man gave his name
as Joyce, and his conduct was that of
queer character SS { ~.
Mayer Continues to yell and howl in
his CELL He seems to be growing worse
all the time. Treatment at the asylum,
if he is put under it in Time may cure
him, hut a few more days in the cell
where he is raging would probably make
him hopeless case.

Frame Buildings and Is Now
s.- on thu Boom

'"The Bozemanite who has not been
back to the city for year would hardly
recognize the business part of the city,"
said Lee Warren, one of the leading
druggists of the Gallatin Valley me-
tropolis. 1.-THE large number of fine new
stores would surprise any one who was
ever in the town.
1.-The growth was absolutely neces.
sary for business, there not having been
enough store rooms for the trade. The
main street of the city has been built
up almost solid, and fine, substantial
buildings, too. The ramshackle old
frames that used to be constant fire
menace are going, and their places be-
ing taken by substantial brick strut
ures. The residence districts are being
built up almost equally fast. some fine
structures having been erected this
year. It Is year of prosperity for
everyone it seems. r
1.-THE burning of the Story mill the
first of the week was hard blow to
the milling industry of the state. The
mill was modern in every particular,
and the loss on mill and contents was
not less than $500 Fortunately, the
great flour warehouse was saved. The
whole country turned out to help, and
the long procession of flour carriers
saved thousands of dollars worth of
property: The Story mill was starting
