REGIMENT FOR DIES MONIES

Washington, Oct. 2.-Orders were is.
sued at the war department today
for the entire Eleventh cavalry, Col
onel Earl d. Thomas to take station
at Fort Des Moines upon it's arrival
in the United States from the Philip
pines.
The Eleventh cavalry is to be re-
lieved in the Philippines by the Second
cavalry. AS the Second cavalry will
not sail from the United States until
January l, it will be several months
later before the Eleventh reaches this
country.
The war department evidently does
not believe the barracks at Fort Des
Moines will be ready when the two
squadrons of the Eleventh, which are
to be quartered there, reach Des
Moines, as a general order from the
department says the two squadrons,
which are to be stationed in Des
Moines, are to be Quartered temper
arily at Fort Sheridan and Jefferson
barracks until the Des Moines quar-
ters are completed. The remaining
squadron of the Eleventh is to be tenn
porarily stationed at Fort Riley, Kan
sas.
The Fifteenth cavalry, which was
slated originally for Fort Des Moines,
is to go to Fort Myer, Va, and Fort
Ethan Allen, Vermont.

RICHARDS LOSING NERVE.
Prospect of Penitentiary Causes Him
To Partially Break Down.

Indianola, Oct 3.-Wm. A. Richards,
ex-deputy United States marshal, re-
mains in Jail, the efforts of his friends
to secure bondsmen to the amount of
$4,000, the amount of the appeal bonds
set by the court, having been thus far
only partially successful. Mr.. Rich
ards father assumed $4,000 of the
risk yesterday. 1t is thought that this
will give assurance to others who
have been reluctant to assume the re-
sponsibility for Richards appearance
in case the supreme court refuses to
grant a new trial. For a couple of
days the rumor has been current that
Mr.. Richards brother, from Farming
ton, ILL.,, would come to his relief.
Until yesterday Mr.. Richards has
been cheerful, and has accepted the
situation without apparent misgivings
as to the outcome; but last night he
became respondent, and apparently
fearful that he would be able to pro-
cure bondsmen. He remarked to a
friend yesterday that, although he did
not expect to have to spend any time
in prison, yet he would rather serve
eighteen years of his sentence than to
be fugitive from justice. The ex-
perience of ten weeks, during which
he was in hiding after the Sullivan
robbery, he said, were enough to con-
vince him that the life of the convict
was preferable to that of the hunted
fugitive.

HELD UP THE
WRONG man
Geo. Embree in Jail at Glen
wood in Precarious
Condition.
He HAD ROBBED TOM KIMPLE
The Latter Used His Pocket-knife
After He Was Relieved of His
Money-Two Hoboes With Embree
Escaped.

Glenwood, Oct. 5.-A fellow giving
the name of George Embree is held at
the county jail here charged with par
ticipating in hold-up at Pacific juno
ton at an early hour Saturday. He is
in a precarious condition from a knife
wound in his throat, the wound being
inflicted by Tom Kimple, the lad who
was held up and robbed of $50 of hard
earned money.
Kimple says that he and three
other fellows were riding in box car
when they relieved him of his money.
AS soon as he was liberated, he drew
a pocket knife and succeeded in so
injuring Embree that he could not es-
cape. The other two have so far elud-
ed the officers. Embree was liberated
from the county jail last week, where
he had been held for some time await
ing the action of the grand jury on
the charge of assaulting brakeman.
He is hobo, as were his companions.
Kimple lives in Oklahoma and was on
his way home from the north, where
he had worked during the summer.

HE WANTED TO ROT.
Dying Desire Of Twenty-Year-OId Sui
eide Near Stockport.

Burlington, Oct. 5.-A special from
Stockport tells of one of the strangest
suicides that has taken place in this
section of the state for some time, that
of Carl Loofburrow, 20 years old, who
killed himself by taking an ounce of
carbolic acid at the home of his par
ents, three and one-half miles east of
Stockport. The body was in the attic
lying between the joist with an empty
carbolic acid bottle close by, and writ
ten upon slate in the dead boys own
hand was the following statement:
II am no account, a big expense to
the folks, will break father up if live,
don't take on about me, just let me rot
just like chicken"
Since July he has not been well
and yet with all that he would not see
a physician. About three weeks ago
he entered the academy at Mount
Pleasant. He came home on Wednes-
day, saying he could not learn any
thing .t

ing to take charge of the demented
man. After a severe struggle, in
which Fish flourished and snapped
revolver at several people, he was sub
dued and turned over to the agents of
the express company, who finally got
him quieted.
Yesterday he went to the home of a
daughter in Perry. The cause of his
trouble Is supposed to be excessive re-
ligious zeal. For some time it has
been known to the agents of the ex-
press company that Fish was some
thing of a fanatic, but it was not
thought that he was dangerous. Had
his gun been loaded there would IN
doubtedly have been one or more ia
talities. Not only did Fish aim di.
rectly at the breast of one man, but
aimed several times into the crowd
which had gathered about his car.
