THE SHERIFF ENDORSED THE RELIANCE ELECTED AN ARMY CONTRACTOR
In Department of Texas Makes a Con-
 tribution to the Unclaimed Fund.

Washington, D., C., July 27.-The sec Tetary of war has sent to the treasury department a box of cigars and one hundred dollars which was received from the Department of Texas. It appears that Col. Clem, chief quarter master of the department, found the box of cigars on his desk. and upon opening it discovered it was from a contractor who was doing some work under the quartermaster's supervision. Tn the box was the money.
 The colonel was very indignant and referred the matter to General Fred Grant. commanding the department. The contractor acknowledged sending the cigars by messenger boy. but said he did not knew anything about the money.
 General Grant thought that under such circumstances nothing could be done by prosecuting the man for attempted bribery, and he sent the cigars and the money to the war de- partment. From the war department they were sent to the treasury, where all unclaimed funds are sent. The cigars subsequently were sold for s3.0O and the money was placed with the s100.OO.

THE PARTY GROWING.

Placerville, Cal. July 27.-A report has reached here that the general mer- chandise store at Pilot Hill. kept by s. D. Diehl, one of the supervisors of Eldorado county. has been plundered by the thirteen escaped convicts. The escaped are said to have with them several guards and a number of citi- zens picked up en route, making twen- ty-three in the party. It is reported that the sheriff with sixteen men is in close pursuit.
 The latest advice from Pilot Hill is to the effect that a posse of fifty men from Auburn has arrived to assist the sheriff and his posse, that fight has taken place and that Fred Howard, a convict. has been killed and A. SeabiO, another convict, was wounded. The convicts are scattering and are now taking to the surrounding woods. A company of militia is en route to Pilot Hill and should now be in the imme- diate vicinity of the trouble.

TWO MORE FIRMS
Give Way Under the Press
 ure of Speculation
Their Collapse Had No Effect Upon the Street.-The Situation Is Now More Cheerful.

New York, July 27.-In spite of or probably because of two additional failures on the stock exchange. F. s. Hooley & Co. of this city and William Bassett of Boston, today's stock market showed a very general improvement and the situation as a whole was view ed with more cheerfulness. The Hooley failure was regarded as an inevitable sequel to that of w. T. Stow & Co. which came last Friday. The failure of MT. Bassett was wholly unimportant, one of the days incidents.
 The market displayed a hesitating tone at the outset, many of the railroad stocks showing fractional declines. Slight improvements soon followed, but prices fell off one to three points in the active list with even greater declines in the specialties as soon as the Hooley failure came out. By the end of the first hour the situation seemed well in hand and the prices advanced save in the few instances where pressure con- tinued to be directed upon certain stocks.

RUSSIA TO INVITE CAPITAL.
Will Ask Foreigners to Build Manchur-
 ian Road Branch Line.

Pekin, July 27.-Several of the lega- tions here have received Russia's as- surances for the opening of Mukden and Tatungkou in Manchuria. They have been informed by M. Lessar, the Rus sian minister. that the tort Arthur conference, which decided the question of opening these two places to foreign trade. also decided, although 1t was Russia's original intention to build all the branch lines of the Manchurian railroad. that owing to the lack of capital Russia proposed to invite for eigners to assist in the construction of the lines.
 In communicating with MT. Conger. the American minister, Prince Ching, head of the board of foreign affairs. says that he has received no advices from M. Lessar recommending that China agree with the request in the American commercial treaty for the opening of Mukden and Tatungkou. Russia's assurances on this point are regarded as being of even less import ance than formerly, now it is known that they were given to all countries.

CAPTURE OF STILES.
Outlaw 0verSIept Himself
 on the American Side
He Had Come to Visit His Wife and the Officers Were Lying in Wait. His Examination Today.

Tombstone, Ariz., July 2 (SpeciaD.- William Stiles, the train robber, was captured early yesterday morning near the Mexican line by Deputy Sheriff Porter Mcdonald. The sheriff's office received word that Stiles had been seen coming across the line to visit his wife who was living on ranch in tent near Hereford. Mcdonald with Frank Mason of the Green Cattle company posted themselves near a tent during the night to watch for the outlaw.
 About daylight Mcdonald crawled up to the tent, and looking through a hole saw his man lying in bed. He quickly called his companion, and walking into the tent ordered Stiles to throw up his hands. He was then brought here and placed in jail.
 He is wanted on four charges by the government for conspiring and ob- structing the United States mail and for assault with intent to commit mur- der on George Bravin at the time he released Alvord and Bravo Juan from jail He will be given an examination on the Bravin charge in the morning.
 Stiles has been in jail several times since his arrest four years ago in con- nection with Burt Alvord for train rob- bery. He had been promised freedom for his testimony after the capture of Alvord and his companions who took part in the Fairbanks robbery. He afterward assisted Alvord in breaking jail and he fled with him. It was at this time that Bravin was wounded.
 Again Stiles made terms with the au- thorities and was allowed to come and go. In the early days of the late term of the United States court at Tomb stone it was made known to him that he had been indicted along with Al word who had come back into the country under an understanding that for his assistance in the capture of Augustin Chacon he should not be prosecuted for his previous crimes. Stiles left the country the day the in dictment was found and before the bench warrant could be served

Nearly All the Cardinals
 Are Now in Rome
COMPROMISE CANDIDATE
Tn the Event of Failure to Agree Upon Those Already Prominent-There Is Not the Remotest Prospect of the Election of Cardinal Gibbons.

Rome. July 27.-Almost all the car dinaIs of the conclave have HOW ar rived. Their time today was mainly occupied with a lengthy meeting of the congregation which was notable for the cordiality with which Cardinal Gib- bons was received. After the meeting the cardinals received numerous visits at their various residences.
 In we'll informed circles Cardinal An Gelo Di Pietro, predatory of the late pope, is being talked of as compro- mise candidate in the event that Car dinals Oreglia, Gotti. Rampolla or Sera- fino Vannutelli fail to secure the ne cessary votes. Should Cardinal Pietro be elected pope he would, it is said. be the representative of the Rampolli- Gotti faction and yet would be fairly acceptable to all.
 Cardinal Michael Logue. archbishop of Armagh, who with the exception of Cardinal Gibbons will be the only Eng fish speaking cardinal in the cons clave. arrived today from Ireland. He said he believed that the successor to Leo would be quickly chosen. Tn his case perhaps the hope is father to the thought. as he said he did not lcox forward with a great degree of pleas. uFe to being shut up in the vatican during the present hot weather.
 Speaking of Cardinal Gibbons, the Irish cardinal paid him a glowing trib- ute, though, like all the prelates here, he held out no hope that the Ameri- can cardinal had the remotest chance of election.
 Indeed" said Cardinal Logue, "I think Cardinal Gibbons would be a subject for commiseration if the selec tion should devolve upon him. for no American would care to spend the rest of his life confined within the pre- Cincts of the vatican"
 At today's meeting of the congrega- ton fifty-two cardinals were present and all noticed the exceptionally cor dial reception accorded to Cardinal Gibbons. who was visibly touched by it. He thanked all of his colleagues and embraced Cardinal Satolli. The American cardinal has given no iHdi- cation of his prediiection in regard to the election of a new pope and he has refused to see any newspaper men.

 Several negroes have been attacked and beaten by small parties of whites, but no killing has been done today. Thee mob has dispersed, but while the present feeling exists it would not re- quire long to reorganiZe it.
 The sheriff who defended his prisoner. Wilson, by firing into the mob, killing one and wounding eight others, says he will defend the county jail to the last
 The work of repairing the city jail, which was demolished Saturday night while the negro Mayfield was being taken from the officers, has been com menced.

Threats are being made of what will happen when the last of the troops leave. Thee County Bar association met today at the suggestion of Chief Justice Wilkins and adopted resolutions condemnIng the action of the mob and endorsing Sheriff WhitlocH, who shot down two score of its members. All the wounded are recovering.

 taining g Gold and g. Silver Pieces.
 Cooperstown, N. Y, July 21.-A. jar containing gold and silver coins 140 years old was found by John Rockwell, a farmer, who lives ii the Butternut Valley. this county. While digging in q field he unearthed a veritable pot of gold. It contained thirty-two gold pieces. each having d coin value of about s6; thirty-seven silver pieces about the size of a half dollar, and eight coppers. The gold pieces bear the image of Gorge II. The dates on the coins run from 1761 to 1769.
 History records that at the time of the Cherry Valley massacre the In- clans raided the Butternut Valley and crried the early settlers into captivity. Among these pioneers were the Lulls. the Garratts and the oJhnsons. At that time these families secrete1 their valuables. For instance, one family of Garratts hid their silverware under the trough of the pig pen and seven years later they returned and found it there intact.
