n,an OF concentrating the postal business of
Washington in the central office, all the
special messengers heretofore stationed at
branch post offices have been transferred

VeIops-Estimates on Amount Lost
Vary From $4,000 to $4,000
Probably Former Amount.

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 12.-Up to 10
o'clock last night no news Of any cap
ture Of the Burlington train robbers
had been received. Detective Malone,
with his bloodhounds is at Louisville,
Cass county, 35 miles away, to which
place he followed seemingly posi-
tive trail. He made one arrest there
last evening, but the suspect was able
to prove an alibi 1t developed that
during the day there were four of the
robbers, one of whom remained at
some distance from the scene OF the
hold-up guarding horse and buggy,
in which they all escaped. 1t is evil
dent that the robbers separated, two
on foot going north, the others in the
buggy, travelling eastward. Esti-
mates on the amount secured from
the Adams Express safe range from
$4,000 to $4,000. The company of
ficials refuse to say word about
their loss, and the only authoritative
statement is from Gen. Supt. Calvert
of the Burlington, who is positive
that the robbers did not get over
$4,000.
The Burlington company offered a
$1,000 reward for the capture of any
one of the robbers.

there is no doubt that Clarke has 10. All
the leading Democrats of the State OPP
posed Jones for various causes.
1t is probable that even without this

of his latest effort for a Senatorial re-
