Train Robbers Cause Bad Wreck.

AS the result of what is thought to
be the work of train robbers, the east
bound Santa Fe, Colorado, Chicago &
Pueblo special, loaded with passen-
gers from Denver, Colorado Springs
and Pueblo, was wrecked OF a bridge
crossing the Apishapa river, 80 miles
east of Pueblo and between Fowler
and Manzanola, Friday morning. The
wreck appear to have been caused by
the removal of the spikes from three
rails on the approach to the bridge.
The locomotive left the rack and
carried the train upon the pile ap-
proach to the bridge, knocking the
structure to the creek. The locomo-
tive, two baggage cars, a chair car n
a day coach plunged to the bed of the
creek, and lie there in 4 mass of wreck
age. Nobody was killed, but 30 per-
sons were injured.

Austrian and French houses of the
Rothschilds combined and bought large
petroleum fields in Caucasia from the
Ru&ian government. Objection was
lodged with the Russian government
tina the sale was not legal because the
