Movements of Warships ON Both
Sides of the IsthnuS.
Washington, Dec. 29.-The fleets of
warships on both sides of the isthmus
of Panama will shortly be REINFORCED
by several vessels now on their way to
that quarter. The gunboat Topeka, of
the Atlantic training squadron, left Key
West, Sunday, for Colon, by way OF
Kingston, as convoy of the torpedo
boat destroyers Truxton and Stewart,
which have been assigned to patrol
duty on the Caribbean coast Of the 18TH
mus. The gunboat Castine arrived at
Colon, Sunday, from Philadelphia none
the worse for her recent grounding on
bar in the Delaware river. The big
collier Caesar has left Culebra for
Colon with coal for the fleet. The con-
verified cruiser Dixie left League Island
to-day for Colon with the Panama ma
rine brigade, numbering about 600 men,
in command of Brig.-Gen. Elliott.
Naval movements in the direction of
the isthmus have been almost as active
On the Pacific coast. The gunbOat
Petrol, bound for Panama, arrived at
Acapulco, Mexico on the 26th inst,
and undoubtedly has left there by this
time. The flagship New York, the gun
boat Bennington, the torpedo boat de-
stroyer Preble and Paul Jones and the
collier Saturn, have been fitted out
at San Francisco for service in the vi
cinity of Panama and it is expected
that all of them will start south in a

Death of an Old and Prominent Cit
ixen of St. Louis After
Brief Illness.

St. Louis, Dec. 29-Col. John Griff
Prather, for 40 years dominant factor
in St. Louis affairs, died of pneumonia,
Sunday afternoon, at his home. At the
time of his death and for year past,
Col Prather was jury commissioner of

The illness that resulted in his death
was of but ten days duration. A heavy
cold developed into pneumonia, and for
four days death was expected hourly.
For many years Col. Prather was
prominently identified with the demo-
cratic party. and he served it as ma
tional committeeman in Missouri for 16
years. Unable to agree with Bryan in
his free silver views, Col. Prather tenn
porarily retired from politics in 1896.
When Sterling Price threatened to in
wade ST. Louis during the civil war
Col Prather was appointed to the COM
mand of the home guard, from which

CHICAGO BANDITS ON TRIAL
Attorneys Ask to Have Trials POST
poned For Two Months.
So Infiamed That Fair Trial at
This Time IL Impossible.

Chicago, Dec 29.-With the state
prepared to demand that the death
penalty be visited on each desperado,
the car barn bandits-Peter Nieder-
meier, Harvey Van Dine and Gustave
Maryland their accomplice in other
crimes, Emil Roeski, were arraigned
for trial in the criminal court Monday
morning. The attorneys for all the
defendants were prepared to make ev-
cry effort for delay. There was large
crowd of curious persons in the court
room, and 1t required a number Of
extra bailiffs to preserve order and
prevent overcrowding.
The four prisoners, neatly dressed
and well groomed, but minus that
air of bravado that marked their con-
duct Immediately after their arrest,
we're placed in row before the judges
bench.
Van Dine and Niedermeier wore a
serious look, but Marx and Roeski
seemed unable to realize their plight
Marx smiled continually, and Roeski
looked bored.
After the reading of the indictments
charging Van Dine, Marx and Nieder-
meier with the murder of John John.
son and Frank Stewart in the raid
on the Chicago City Railway barns,
and RoesM with the murder of Otto
Bauder in saloon hold-up, Marks at
torney asked for continuance of two
months, stating the present state of
the public mind would prevent a fair
and impartial trial.
Marx according to the affidavit, in
addition to being a criminal by hered,
ity, is made further irresponsil lie by
an injury to his head, inflicted by his
father with broomstick. A separate
trial was asked for the prisoner
A similar plea for continuance and
of heredity insanity was set up for
Van Dine. His attorney proposed to
show that Van Dine is an epileptie
and that an uncle died in an insane
asylum.
Niedemeier and RoesI asked for
continuance for the same reason set
forth by their fellow-prisoners. and
presented affidavits pleading mental
responsibility. After hearing brief
arguments for and against a continu-
ance, the cases were passed until to-
day.

Mississippi State News
Something Doing.

From reports persistently kept in
circulation there is evidently some
thing afoot in the affairs Of the
Memphis & Gulf railroad, which is
designed to run from Memphis to
Pensacola, Fla. One Of the best in
formed men in the State on railroad
matters stated last week that he be-
lieved that the announcement would
be made in the next few weeks that
the Illinois Central Railroad would
finance the new road. Every visible
sign would seem to indicate that
there was something of this kind on
foot. President Pond, of the road,
in an interview at Meridian a few
days ago, stated that the Frisco peo-
pie had offered to finance the road,
but the offer had been declined on
the ground that the Frisco would be
hostile to the Illinois Central. Ac-
cording to the charter of the Mem
phis & Gulf, it is privileged to run
to both Mobile and Pensacola. The
moves of all three parties at interest
go to show that some understanding
has been reached. It is we'll known
that the Frisco people are behind
the Mobile, Jackson & Kansas Rail-
road, and it is natural that the
Illinois Central should want the
Memphis & Gulf, for it will give it
access to the harbor of Pensacola,
and that of Mobile also, if it should
be determined to go to Mobile. The
new road will run through one Of
the finest sections of the State, and
if the Illinois Central backing it,
it will not be long before it is in
operation, for the Illinois Central
can secure the necessary finances to
carry the project to completion.
