Rapidly Increasing Mail Causes Sol1c1-

Storm and Heat.

ESOPUS. n. Y, July 16.-A breathless,
blistering July day dawned upon Esopus,
after a night of thunder and lightning
uneoualled before this summer. but
neither the boIsterous storm OF the nlght
nor the sitting heat of the morning inter-
fered with the routine at Rosemount. A
little after o'clock Judge Parker took
one of his long dives into the Hudson and
remained in the water some thirty min
utes.
What the mail here will be by the time
the campaign is in full swing is ques-
ton now causing solicitude in the nttle
post Office where most of the work is
done by a boy of sixteen. No such mall
as that which came in on the early train
was ever seen in Esopus' before and 1t Is
doubtful if any single citizen of Ulster
county ever before received the like.
New Campaign Office.
The new campaign office in the lodge at
the gate of Rosemount is now in use Tor
part Of the judges business, although his
large law library in the house Is still the
center Of distribution. Three add1lonal
stenographers and private telegraph op-
orator constitute the working force at pres
ent but 1t will be augmented as time goes
on and the bulk of business requires 1t.
The expected visit here today of John w.
Kern. who was one of the Indiana dele
gates-at-large at st. Louis, was the only
event of political interest apparent upon
the program at the outset Of the day. 1t Is
understood that Mr.. Kern Is coming 10
press the claims of his friend. National
Committeeman Taggart, for the natlonai
chairmanship. L.
day was accompanied by his daughter. Mrs.
Charles Mercer Hall, and part of the way
had on his saddle in front OF him MS NIUE
grandson, who apparently feared nothing
and enjoyed the galloping OF the Dig morse
as much as his grandfather.
Parker Gets Letter From Villas.
Judge Parker today received long letter
from William F. Villas who was postmas-
ter General in President Cleveland's cabi-
net The letter is in Mr.. Villas own hand
writing and is follows:
MADISON, Wis, July II
NV Dear Sir: | cannot refrain from add
ing nv expression of admiration and re-
spect for the noble sense of manly upright
ness which you have testified to the world

and still more, in my belief that it was to
be ratified at the polls. That joy is as
nothing to the enthusiasm which fills my

trymen.

suit, l remain, your admiring friend,

A HOLD-UP IN TEXAS
FIVE BANDITS DYNAMITE GREAT
NORTHERN EXPRESS CAR.
Robbers Secured Nothing-One Of the
Outlaws Injured by Explosion
Posse in Pursuit.

HOUSTON. Tex, July 16-Train No. 8
on the International and Great Northern
has been held UP at Keechi, small station
about thirty miles west Of Palestine.
Five bandits, all young men and appar-
emily amateurs, shattered the express car
with dynamite and blew in the end of the
second-class coach, but without injuring
any of the passengers. One Of the robbers
was apparently badly hurt, as the explo-
sion appeared to be premature and he was
observed to be covered with blood.
The robbers secured nothing, not molest-
ing either the express or the mail, and get
ting away as fast as possible after their
comrade was hurt. Fireman Hiram Mpz
jumped from the locomotive as the train
slowed down, ties having been piled across
the track, and hurt his shoulder, but not
seriously.
None of the passengers was smolested.
The adjutant general has been notified, and
a special train with Sheriff Henry Watts.
his dogs and a posse left Palestine early
today for the scene of the hold-up. A
squad Of rangers is stationed near the
scene, and it is probable that they will be
put on the case at once

SAN FRANCISCO. July 16-After nearly
sixty years of service the southern ter

Gently established by the canal commission
and American territory.
Cable advices just received from the 18TH
mus state that all American vessels would
be entered and cleared at the new port un-
der the same rules as those prevailing in
other United States entry ports. AS re-
suit steamers in future will escape foreign
port fees and tonnage dues, which have
been comparatively high.
Ancon the new southern terminus for
the Pacific mail steamers, Is the old town
of LaBoca. close to the mouth of the Rio
Grande and about three miles north of the
city of Panama. 1t is the western en-
trance to the proposed canal and has a
deep water channel, which the French COM
pany built at the time 1t endeavored to
create the waterway across the isthmus.

Arthur on July 10 or IL. Not a shot was

Skepticism at st. Petersburg.
ST. PETERsBURG, July 16. 1875 PM
Since the receipt from Tokyo of an official
denial of the report of a Japanese repulse
at Port Arthur with the loss of abou;
10000 men. skeptic!sm as to the truth of the
report from Vlceroy Alexieff's headquar-
ters has psrvaded all circles, but the mem
bers OF the general staff decline TO accept
the denial unrcservediy.
While not Insisting on the accuracy or
the figures they claim there is good reason
to believe that a severe check was inflicted
on the Japanese in front of Port Arthur,
and 1t Is considered possible that General
Stoessel may have made a report on the
subject direct to the emperor, who Will not
return here until tonight. Although still
in ignorance as to what the official state
ment meant by from Japanese sources
the officials here maintain that Alexle11
must have had good reas to send the
report.
Japs May Have Spread Report.
While 1t Is conceivable that the Japanese
themselves may have spread the report for
the purpose of leading General Kuropatkin
to believe that they will not advance any
further in Manchuria the general staff are
not disposed to regard them guilty of
such Machiavellism. Despite the attitude
of the general staff. who evidently are re-
luctant to give up report for which they
are not responsible, the public ardor has
quite cooled down.
800 Prisoners Unaccounted For.
The American embassy today forwarded

RETURNED FROM THE ORIENT.
Mr.. Pierce of State Department In
spected Consulates.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 16.-Herbert H.
D. Pierce third assistant secretary of state.
has lust arrived here from an inspection
tour Of the American consulates In the
orient on his way back to Washington.
He says that the attitude of oriental coun-
tries toward this nation is extremely favor
able. This is particularly true Of China.
The policy of this country. automatically.
with regard to China has won the conf
dence of Chinese officials. They feel that
the United States is not looking for terri
tory and not trying to bleed the country,
and that this is not true of any other ma
ton which is seeking influence in the orient.
For that reason all that can be done to
favor this country commercially is done.
