Are All Welcome.
CHAIRMAN COWHERD TALKS

Washington, June S-(Special)- )-In dis
cussing the recent speech of Secretary
Shaw opening the republican campaign,
Chairman Cowherd of the democratic con-
gressional committee said it looks as If
the republican campaign had started
with fraud in the department and hypo-
crisy on the stump"
I'VE are told by the newspapers" said
Mr.. Crawford that the entire cabinet
will take the stump for the presidential
ticket. If the other members are as un-
guarded in their disclosures of party prao-
tices as the secretary of the treasury, the
democratic party will certainly welcome
them to the stump at the earliest oppor-
tunity
"The story has been current around
Washington for weeks that corps of
clerks working under the head of the
department Of commerce, the future
chairman of the national republican COM
lnittee were engaged in preparing cam
paign literature for use by the republican
party. In fact, one paper published
statement a few days ago giving some
what IN detail the number of clerks en-
gagged upon that work. and stated that
the republican campaign text book was
being prepared at an expense of about
$50 900 to the national treasury. I was very
loath to believe this report, but the fol-
lowing statement from Secretary Shaws
speech seems to give credence to the
story He is reported to have said
:" L am confident, however, that before
the campaign proceeds very far, there
will BE- furnished from the highest pos
sible authority in the United States. well
authenticated data showing that the av-
erage wages have increased in larger pro-
rortion than the average articles OF or
binary household consumption
'Thc secretary evidently recognizes the
pressing need OF the republican party for
data OF that kind. and while expert statis-
ticians may be able to furnish figures to
corroborate most any theory, they will be
hard put to find an excuse In law or good
conscience for the employment of gov
ernment clerks to prepare campaign ma

Wireless Messages Via Che Foo.

ST. Petersburg, June s. p. m.-The
manager of the Baltic wire has received
message from branch at Port Arthur
which he says was sent by wireless teleg-
raphy by way of Che Foo. The message
said that work on the Russian battleship
Pobleda which had hole thirty feet
wide in her side is proceeding satisfac-
torily.
The question of wireless communica-
tlon with Port Arthur promises to raise
an interesting International question
There Is no evidence that the Russian
government has yet received wireless
messages, although II Is suggested that
Rear Admiral Wittsoefts report to Vie
eroy Alexieff may have come by this me-
dium. Some of the authorities who have
been examining the question, are inclined
to hold that II blockaded port comma-
nicated by wireless telegra ply with
shore station In neutral territory, II does
not necessarily constitute a breach Of
Neutrality any more than communication
over an unseverel cable, the enemy hav-
ing the remedy in one case of cutting the
cable, and in the other Of statloning

tween the sending and receiving stations,

BOLD BANDITS HOLD
UP EXPRESS TRt<N

Denver, Colo, June S.-A Denver and
Rio Grande passenger train. westbound,
from Denver, was held up by five masked
men three miles west of Parachute. a
small fruit station midway between Grand
Junction and Glenwood Springs. early
today
One sealed bag containing specie was
taken from the express car, which was
badly wrecked with dynamite. The rob-
bers were forced to fee to the mountains
before they could gather up the valuables
in the car.
A posse of farmers and ranchmen was
quickly summoned and is now in pursuit
of the robbers.
When the train reached a point three
miles west of Parachute station two
masked men crawled over the tender of
the engine They placed revolvers to the
head of Engineer Allison and his fireman
and demanded the train be stopped Three
men were waiting on the tender. and as
the train stopped they quickly ran back
and uncoupled the express and baggage
cars These cars. with the engine, were
run two miles west.
The members of the train crew were or
dered to remain with the passenger
coaches on pain of being shot. When the
point selected for the dynamiting of the
express car was reached the engineer
and fireman were ordered down. One Of
the robbers covered them with two revol-
vers. The remainder of the gang went to
the express car.

open the car upon demand of the robbers

NEW RAILROAD Is
AN ASSURED THING
MEMPHIS AND GULF LINE WILL
BE BUILT THROUGH MERIDIAN
AND EAST MlssIssIPPrlN NEAR
FUTURE.

Meridian, Miss June ESPECIAL 1.-THE
Memphis and Gulf railroad will be built
through Meridian and east Mississippi In
a very short time Col. S. w. Townsend
of this city has received letter from
prominent railroad man in Memphis who
states that difficulties had been met in
placing bonds in the east, but that had
been overcome and he was authorized to
state that all the obstacles had been
overcome and that work would soon be-
gin on the construction of the road. He
further stated that Memphis investors
had too much at stake to let this railroad
project drop and that those behind the
proposition were determined to carry out
the plans and have a direct line to the
gulf as the completion of the Panama
canal promised great benefits to those
cities which are prepared to read the
benefit through transportation facilities.
AS is well known the route has been
completely surveyed twice and much
money expended in right of way and
preliminary work and all that remains
to be done is to construct the roadbed

comforting with local officials regarding
the new passenger and freight depots.

the two big structures at an early date.
