Will Remain at Beirut.

Withdrawals of the American war
ships from Beirut seems unlikely for
the present in view of cablegram re-
ceived at the State Department from
Minister LeiShmar, at Constantinople,
stating that, although his advices from
Beirut indicate that the situation is
quiet just now, nothing like permanent
order has been established Mr.. Leish
man says the state of affairs there may
yet be regarded as uncertain.
1t is indicated in Mr.. Leishman's ca
blegram that the departure of the war
ships might be the occasion for a re-
newal of the riots. This confirms the
opinion held here by State Department
officials that the quiet at Beirut is due
directly in the presence of American
warships off that port
Minister Leishman adds that the new
governor of Beirut is actively inaugu
rating reforms there, but that it is not
yet certain he will be able to handle
the situation. How far he has the
backing of the Porte in his activities i'll
behalf Of foreigners and their interests
is not stated.

Warship Sent to st. Andrews.

Additional information obtained at the
State Department about the trouble near
Blucfelds, Nicaragua, is to the effect
that number of American citizens have
suffered i'll treatment on,the Island of St.
Andrews, 40 miles from Bluefelds, and
that the local authorities have failed to
afford them protection or redress. The
matter was reported to the State Depart
ment by Edwin w. Trimmer, the Amcri-
can agent at Bluefelds, and at his sug-
gestion the Nashville has been ordered
from Pensacola to St. Andrews.
The Americans involved are connected
with a plantation at St. Andrews. The
State Department officials say they do
not anticipate serious trouble, but the
evident inability of the local authorities
or their unwillingness to maintain order
makes the presence of an American war
ship desirable.

FILIPINO CHARGED WITH TREACHERY.
President of The Nationalist Party Arrested
on Serious Charge.

Manila (By Cable). "A Filipino
named Kalbaza, president of the Nation
alist party, was arrested upon similar
charge as that which has just been pre-
ferred against Dominiado Gomez. He is
accused of being concerned with the lat
ter in fomenting the disturbances which
have lately taken place in the northern
province of Luzon, where guerrilla
warfare has been carried on for some
time past by ladrones against the peace
ably inclined natives. He is now held to
answer on charges of rebellion and in
surrection against the authority of the
United States.
Two prisoners named Rudd and
Black, escaped fugitives from the United
States Military Prison, on Malaga Island,
in Laguna de Bay, Luzon, have been
killed by natives. In defense the latter
claim that the killing took place during
an attempt to capture the f1gitives to
gain the reward which was offered for
their arrest and return to the military
authorities.
Dean Tompliins, the defaulting treas
urer at San Fernando, convicted recent
ly for forgery, has been sentenced to II
years imprisonment. His trial on the
other charges filed against him has been
set for December 1.

SHOT WIFE In CHURCH
The Desperate Husband Then Fatally
Wounds Himself.
WOMEN AND CHILDREN FRIGHTENED.
Tragic Scene In th. German Lutheran Church
at Lacrosse, WIs.-Man Whose Young
Wife Had Left Him Because of His Conduct
Follows Her Into the Ediilcs and Shoots
Her Ia the Presence Of the Congregation.

Lacrosse, Wis. Especially During
the early morning communion service
at the German Lutheran Church here,
Herman Rossow, painter, entered the
church behind his wife and her mother,
shot her twice and then turned the wea-
pom upon himself, inhicting wound
which will likely prove fatal. Rossow
was married to Miss Weiss three years
ago at the home of her widowed
mother. She was factory girl. Ros-
sow was employed by the Lacrosse
Carriage Company.
Because the husband became drunk
ard and refused to provide for his
young wife, she left him, returning to
live with her mother. Several times
Rossow sent notes threatening to kill
her if she did not return to him, but
the girl, though terrorized, refused to
again have anything to do with him.
Sunday morning Rossow took up a
position in a livery stable nearly oppo-
site the church. He had failed to ac-
complish his premeditated purpose in
any other manner. When his wife ap-
peared and entered the church Rossow
followed, walking behind her down the
aisle to the middle of the edihce. Step
ping up behind her he muttered some
thing in her ear, and as she turned
fired into her breast. The woman reel
ed. then staggered away, and as she
fell to the floor he fired again, the sec
ond bullet entering her back between
the shoulders.
A panic ensued and men, women and
children rushed screaming from the
scene. Rossow fed to the vestibule Of
the church, and placing the weapon
against his breast fired. The bullet took
effect, but second failed and struck the
wall behind him. Running from the
church, he was captured half block
away by E. H. Derr, former policeman,
and easily submitted to arrest. AS he
was being taken to the police headquart-
ers he fell from the loss of blood and
was driven to hospital. Physicians say
he cannot live, the bullet having reached
a vital organ.
The woman will die.

CRUSHED UNDER FALLING TREE.
Samuel King Saves Two Women and Three
Children.

New York Especially After saving
two women and three children from
almost certain death Samuel King.
caretaker OF the estate OF William Law
renee, at Bronxvile, was himself
crushed to death beneath falling tree
trunk, from under which he had just
driven the women and children.
For several days King has been
clearing a tract OF land for building
operations. A massive poplar tree, with
a trunk 2X feet in diameter, stood
near, and the branches overhung the
road Two axmen were at work cut
ing at the base OF the tree, with King
directing them.
Just as the tree began to sway two
women and three children, who had
been in the field picking wild flowers,
started directly across the path OF the
falling tree. Seeing their danger, King
jumped beside them and forced one
woman and two children aside. Then,
grabbing the other woman, who held a
baby in her arms, he showed them from
beneath the tree just as it fell. But he
was not quick enough to save himself
As he started to run for safety the big
tree crashed across Kings body. He
uttered but one piercing cry.

FOILED BY The MESSENGER
HoIdup of an Express Train Proves
BOOtIess.
Masked Men Shot Down by Messenger
When an Attempt Was Made to Blow Open
the Car-Engneer Wounded by the Same
BuIlet-Sherif's Posse Captured Another
Robber, Who Was Badly Wounded.

Portland, Ore. (SpeciaD The At
lantic express on the Oregon Railroad
and Navigation Line which left here at
8.I5 o'clock p. m. was held up by four
masked men an hour later near Cor
bett Station, FL miles east Of this city.
One of the robbers was shot and killed
by Express Messenger Fred Korner
and Engineer Ollie Barrett was seri-
ously wounded by the same bullet.
After the shooting the robbers fed
without securing any booty.
Two of the highwaymen boarded the
train at Troutdale, a station Is miles
east of here, and after the train had
got under way they crawled over the
tender and, covering the engineer and
fremen with revolvers, told them to
stop at Mile-post Fl, which is near
Corbett Station.
When the train slowed down two
more men appeared. Two Of the rob-
bers compelled the engineer to get out
of the cab and accompany them to the
express car, while the others watched
the fireman. The men carried several
sticks of dynamite, and when they
came to the baggage car, thinking it
was the express car, threw stick at
the door. Express Messenger Korner
heard the explosion and Immediately
secued his rifle and opened fire. The
bullet pierced the heart Of one Of the
robbers and went through his body,
entering the left breast of Engineer
Barrett, who was just behind him.
After the shooting the other three
robbers fled without securing any
booty, and it is supposed they took to
a boat which they had moored to the
bank OF the river.
The robber ordered Engineer Bar
rett to walk in front of him while ap-
preaching the baggage car, but he
jumped behind just before the shot
from the express messengers rifle was
fired. The body of the dead robber was
left beside the track and the wounded
engineer was brought to this city.
Sheriff Story and four deputy sheriffs
left on a special train for the scene OF
the robbery at I2:45.
Shortly after the express train bear
ing the sheriff's posse arrived one of
the gang of outlaws was found short
distance up the track badly wounded
from a charge of buckshot which he
had received in the head He was
placed on board the sheriffs special
train, which was turned around and
headed for Portland.
The bandit said his name was Jim
Connors. and that he is from Portland,
but refuses to make known the names
of any of the other bandits or the d.
rection in which they went.

The events OF the next two days are
