Troop trains probably require long
err time on account of the difficulties at
Lake Baikal, where provisions and
troops are crossing both on ice trains
of the troops at the crossings are per-
sistent but lack confirmation.
The telegraph is working well. One
line, devoted exclusively to government
business, runs direct to Irkutsk,
whence. with a single relay, it connects
with st. Petersburg. The correspon-
dent of The Associated Press is in
formed that the Car recently stood at
the telegraph key and talked with
Viceroy Alexieff practically uninter-
rupted.
Military men desiring to accompany
the Russian army have been formally
notified that they can proceed when
convenient, but it is added that accom-
modatiOns and commissariat supplies
cannot be guaranteed before March 49,
No authorize lions have yet been is
sued to war correspondents and it is
improbable that anything in this direc-

Aside from the small amount of change

fancy.

The meat market belonging to G. w.

was entered from the third floor. The
door Of the elevator was not locked and
1t is presumed that they passed through
this door into the room above the mar
ket. The cash register was rified and
about $3.55 in cash taken.

Fremont, May H. (SpeciaD -
IWenty-one watches valued at about,
$l5 apiece. is the amount of booty Sc
cured by bandits here between / and
2 o'clock last night from the general
store of Thomas Stephenson, who later
dynamited the safe in the postofffce but
failed to secure anything of value
therefrom. Boarding an Iowa Central
handcar they escaped to the east and
at Hedrick are supposed to have start
ed south on the Milwaukee, abandon
ing the handcar between Highland and
Rutledge.
Though the officers in the surround
ing towns were this morning notified
of the robbery no trace of the perpe-
traitors has been secured. Bloodhounds
were brought here from New Sharon
today and put on the track of the band
its.
Entered the Back Door.
The first known of the robbery was
this morning about o'clock when Mr..
Stephenson opened his store. A hur-
ried examination of the place disclosed
the fact that they had entered the
building through back window Evil
dences were also seen that prepara-
tions had been made to dynamite the
safe, but finding that it was not lock-
ed the bandits had merely opened the
door and rifled it. However, Mr. Steph-
enson states that there was nothing of
value in the safe. So far as could be
seen nothing else in the store had been
disturbed, the total loss being the
twenty-one watches taken from a show
case.
Break into Postoffice.
When the postoffice was opened this
morning it was seen that the bandits
had also been at work there. A door
had been broken down to effect an en-
trance The safe had been dynamited
and rifled, though their efforts were
scantily rewarded as it contained prac-
tically nothing Of value.
Work of Professionals.
Judging from the results of the work
the robbery was committed by persons
who are far past the novice stage. The
authorities and people of Fremont are
at loss for a clue to the identity OF
| the robbers. No suspicious characters
have been seen in the vicinity of Ere
mont recently, though it is reasonably
certain that the bandits had carefully
looked over their field of operations
before making the raid.

Green county was taken up this after
noon.

There is some talk in case of a
Yates -Lowden combination, of an at
tempt to indorse Frank O. Lowden for
vice president. Outside the Lowden
headquarters are pictures of Roosevelt

1T looks like an attempt to educate
up to the idea" said delegate who

day.
