Story of the Engineer.


 Delhart. Tex. July 31.-Rock Island passenger train No. 4. eastbound. was held-up last night about seventy miles west of Delhart by three masked men. at small station called Logans. En. gineer c. E. Walker made the following statement concerning the holding up:
 We had made our regular stop at Logan's, when both myself and fire- man were covered with guns and or dered to move up We did as ordered and stopped the train at the end of the switch. The robbers then had us un- couple the mall and express cars and run a short distance up the track, where they again ordered us to stop, when they proceeded to enter the express car and attacked the through safe with explosives. They exploded two sepa- rate charges of dynamite on the safe, but failed to effect an entrance. Hav- ing used up all their explosives, they made off in the darkness. The mall car and passengers were not disturbed. The local safe did not contain any money. consequently the robbers did not secure anything"
 A posse from Delhart, headed by Sheriff J. N. Webb, was rushed to tho scene of the hold-up. and at a late hour this evening 1t Is said they have the robbers surrounded and expect to make a capture.

BIG STRIKE
NOW PENDING
Cotton Operatives Object to the
Second Reduction of
Wages

Especial Telegram to Evening Teller.)
FALL RIVER. Mass. July 25-There
ID high feeling amongst the Fall River
cotton mill operatives over the gen.
eral cut in wages which went into ef-
feet today. Reduction averages IAN
per cent and affects more than $4,000
operatives employed by nearly forty
corporations.
The reduction Is the second made in
FAN River within year. the last hav-
ing been q cut Of 10 per cent, which
eventually extended to all the cotton
mills OF Southern New England. The
reason given by the manufacturers for
the wage reduction Is that the cotton
manufacturing industry IL still In poor
shape, and the margin OF profit Is ex-
ceedingly small on most goods. For
nearly four months in spite Of the 10
per cent cut made some time ago. the
mills have been running on short time
With the second revision Of wages. the
mill owners hope to keep their ma
chinery In motion more regularly.

announcement that Judge Parker could
not carry New York II nominated. and
his attitude Of opposition and protest

ton at st. Louis.
The presidential campaign Is In this
way to be madet o serve the purpose of

jubilant at the prospect. Already he
sees with his minds eye the scalp of
Leader Murphy, who took the Brooklyn
patronage away from him, suspended
at his tent pole. Tammany takes a
different view. The braves point out
that II the state is to be carried for
Judge Parker, 1t Is the organization
in New York City that must do the
work 1t ist he democratic majority
in New York City that Judge Parker
will have to depend upon, and not the
upstate vote.
This being the case, Tammany re-
CARDS the game as being in it's own
hands, and considers that 1t lies with
1t rather to offer terms than to accept
dictation.

HOPKINS BEATS BRYAN.
Ihe Anti-Hedrst Mem Seated for the
TEN pOrary ROHcaU.

ot LOUIS July o.-The national committee met
THIS morning TO receive the reports of the vari-
GUS subcommittee appointed Yesterday TO con-
siuer the contests in the various States. All
THESE contests We're settled last night with the
exception of New-Jersey and Illinois. The sub
committee having in charge the Illinois contest
intended at first TO declare the Hopkins men cut
in the lid. With, IXth, XVIII. XVIth. XXIst
and AAIIId districts. but the committee went
over the ground a second time and decided that
they had no jurisdiction in the matter and that
the record OF the State convention should be
held supreme. They therefore reported TO the
national committee that the Hopkins men should
be seated IN all cases. and the national commit
tee upheld the decision.
This drops the Bryan Hearst men from MI
nois out of the convention for thu temporary or
ganiZ2tion. and the Hopkins men declare jubi-
!antly that they will he upheld by tte creden-
tals committee also. and hold the seats for the
full convention.
II Is all over said John p. Hopkins. We
Won as knew we would. There was. in fact
nothing else for the committee to do What steps
may be taken later will have no effect Our
delegates VIII remain just where the State con-
vertion seated them"
i is sad blow to Bryan who got the proxy
Of the Nebraska member In order TO get into
The national committee and lead the fight
against Hopkins. The Bryan and Hearst men
were greatly disheartened by their defeat and
announced their intention Of carrying the fight
before the committee on credentials and II
beaten there before the convention itself
IN NeW-Jersey the contests were abandoned
in the With. With and With districts. and the
tight maintained IN the Ist and lid districts
The committee decided TO report in favor of
The regular delegates in both cases chiefly be-
cause the contestants not able TO pro-
duce convincing evidence in support OF their
claim that between sixty and seventy OF their
delegates we're thrown out OF the State con-
ventioD.

IBr TELEGRAPH TO THE rnIBuNE.I


st. Louis, July 5.-The convention hall in this
city presents a more attractive interior than did
the Coliseum at Chicago 1t is artisticaly deco
rated, the fair colors. yellow and white. pre-
dominating. and making an effective background
for the red. white and blue OF the flags and ban
ners. The entire ceiling OF the hall. which is a
huge oval Is covered with yellow bunting. the
crossbeams being outlined with white. There
are no pictures Of candidates in place thus far.
but gracefully draped flags and shields punctu-
ate the gallery front. while on the ceiling are
the coats of arms Of each State. each between
flags.
II is probable that the hall viii excel Chica gos
Coliseum In acoustic properties. also. but there
appears 10 be grave defect. namely. the
small provision for ventilation. There are win
dows high up on three sides. but not sufficient
in size TO afford relief from the hot and humid
conditions which prevail everywhere indoors in
81. Louis. and. too. IN many instances the deco
rations have been permitted to cover space that
might otherwise have afforded additional fresh
air.
Another serious defect I'm the hall. from the
standpoint Of comfort is that II will probably
be necessary 10 use artificial light especially IL
the weather X cloudy. When II is appreciated
that the temperature everywhere is very high
that there is a scarcity Of fresh air. even IN the
narrow streets of the downtown district. and
that the humidity is high IL gets
anywhere the disadvantages of crowding 1900
5000 people into limited space. under an
arched roof. at the top OF which there is no
provision for ventilation, and then setting

DanfOrth Personally disks Him to
.SuppOrt Parker.

a.. Louis. July 5-Enot Danforth. accompanied
BIZ a number of other New oraers made a call on
The Nebraska delegation tonight and presented
formal plea for support OF Judge Parker. Mr..
Danforrh addressed the delegation. saying that
Judge Parker had supported Mr.. Bryan IN both his
CAM aigns and that he had been the second largest
contributor to the campaign fund I'm New-York.
He also called attention 10 his own well known
friendship FOR Mr.. Bryan. and made personal
appeal o. tn.se grounds. Mr. Bryan. who was
:; ese.. responded the latter point. saying that
II II. E1s-aforth the candidate he would have
his support.
Eaa, in the evening Mr. Bryan gave out the fol-
low az statement:
Juds Parker has made substantial gains from
those q we're counted against him since yes
terday the opposition has become better crys-
tallized In far there is any enthusiasm FOR
Mr. Parker. II is due TO the belief that being the
choice Of New FORK. he can carry the state, ana
with the State. the country. This confidence is
being overcome BY the protests of the Democrats
OF that part Of New-YOrk which is expected to
furnish the Democratic votes While the opposition
not centralized upon particular candidate, 1t
is an aggressive opposition and likely to be re-
cruited by accessions from the instructed States
when II is that Mr.. Parker cannot be nomi-
mated The Hearst delegates form the largest Gle
mont of the opposition. but Missouri Ohio Wiscon-
sin Massachusetts ard Delaware have canvassed
their votes find them with IL. and II will doubt
less have some scattering outside support
