LET'S ROBBERS
RUN To EARTH

st. Louis, Oct. 24.-Punishment
has overtaken the train robbers who
held up the Rock Island fast passen-
ger near Let's early last month, &C
cording to the confession made yes
terday by William Morris, alias Blair,
as he lay upon what will probably be
his deathbed in a st. Louis hospital.
Morris is the leader of the three sus-
poets who on Friday engaged in
desperate battle with st. Louis de-
tectives.
Believing that he was about to die,
Morris made clean breast of his
misdeeds, among them being the Let's
holdup. He claims that the robbers
got nothing for their pains.
The catching of the train robbers,
who for days were hunted through
Iowa with bloodhounds, and were at
one time thought to be cornered by
posses of officers, form a sensational
close to a sensational chapter. The
officers were after the men on an
other charge, for a train robbery in
illinois, and until Morris made his
confession, they were not in the least
connected wish the Iowa holdup.

Six Doctors Failed.

South Bend, Ind. Oct. "a (SpeciaD
After suffering from Kidney Disease
for three years; after taking treat
ment from six different doctors with
out getting relief, Mr.. J. o. Laudeman
Of this place found not only relief but
a speedy and complete cure In Dodd's
Kidn-y Pills. Speaking of his cure
Mr.. Laudeman says:
Eyes, / suffered from Kidney
Trouble for three years and tried six
doctors to no good. Then | took just
two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and
they not only cured my kidneys. but
gave me better health in general. OF
course recommended Dodd's Kidney
pills to, others and I know number
now who are using them with good re-
suits"
4 Mr.. Laudeman's case is not an ex'
ception. Thousands give similar e1'
periences. For there never yet was
case of Kidney Trouble from Backache

new Pills could not cure. They are

Woman's Distaste for Publicity Cost
Purse and Handbag.
For years Mrs. Storey's life had
been haunted by the fear that some
day she might be called upon to serve
as a witness in court. Her grand
mother was witness once, and when
Mrs. Storey was a little girl she used
to hear all about it. Grandma, it ap-
pears, had been so scared she couldn't
tell the Judge her own name.
"And," said Mrs. Storey to Fer hus.

graceful than to be unable tn tell
your own name, I'd like to know what
it is"
In order to reduce the possibilities
OF such calamity to minimum,
Mrs. Storey would walk on with deaf.
ened ears and averted head whenever
she happened to be near a fire, fight
or the scene of an accident. Only the
other day she had occasion to shut
her eyes and ears to the seething
world about her. She was waiting in
the Grand Central station for Mr..
Storey who had gone around to the
baggage room to check trunk.
Presently she became aware that
something exciting was happening
close beside her. Hastily she shut
her eyes and stuck her fingers into
her ears, but before these protective
measures could be accomplished she
learned that a female thief had
snatched handbag which she had
found lying on the floor, and was be-
ing pursued by an excited crowd. Not
being entirely devoid Of the curiosity
of her sex, Mrs. Storey would have
liked to know more. but the old fear
Of being detained as witness held :,
her inert until her husbands return.
Then she ventured to ask If they had
caught the thief.

DOGS READY
Three Batt|eships and Three
Cruisers Under
Orders.
WILL SAIL FRIDAY MORNING
Rumored They Are to Shadow the
Baltic Fleet-Failure of Russia to
Make Definits Explanation of Trag

Gibraltar, Oct. 27.-The battleships
Victorious, Illustrious and Majestic
Flagship of Vice-Admiral BereSforL)
and the cruisers Lancaster, Theses
and Endyymion, are under orders to
sail on the morning of October %.
1t is reported that the purpose is to
shadow the Russian Baltic squadron
which is expected to go by way of
Cape Of Good Hope. The Russian
Baltic squadron's cruisers and tor.
pedo boats are expected to pass
through the straights Of Gibraltar on
the way to SueZ. The whole of the
Gibraltar torpedo fotilla has been
commissioned.
Gibraltar, Oct. 27.-The ships of
the channel feet have filled their
bunkers with coal and replenished
their ammunition and other stores
ment's notice. The battleship Hanni-
bal and the cruiser Doris are watch
ing the straits closely. There is
great activity at the dock yard where
men are working night and day. The
admiralty is making inquiries con-
corning the coal available here.
Vivo, Oct. 27.-The Russian battle
ships Alexander Ill, Bordino and
Kniaz Souvaroff, another vessel of
the same class, and the transport
Amadou have anchored in this port.
Other ships of the squadron are ap-
preaching.
London, Oct. 27-Tension increas-
es as time passes without definite
settlement of the situation created by
the Russian blunder in the North sea.
communication to Foreign Minister
Lansdowne yesterday and the fact
that this was regarded as unsatisfac-
tory only served to inflame the public
mind; and while official circles are
giving out intimations that it is their
confident belief the whole matter will
be satisfactorily arranged, it is now
quite evident that only short time
will be allowed Russia in which to
give final and complete assurances of
her intention to comply with any and
all demands Great Britain may make
within reason.
Meanwhile the admiralty is not
idle. Reports fom all naval stations
show that tremendous state o. &C
tivity exists. This is especially true
of Gibraltar, from which place it is
announced that some of the best of
Great Britain's war vessels are under
orders to proceed in the direction of
the Baltic Russian squadron and that
all the ships of the british channel
fleet are ready to go to sea at mo-
ment's notice. Hitherto there has
been no indication that a time limit
had been set by Great Britain for
Russia's reply to her demands, but
the fact that three battleships and
three cruisers are under orders for
the morning of October % is con-
strued in some quarters to mean that
Great Britain will not wait longer
than that date before unleashing her
sea dogs, while it is also evident that
the Russian cruisers and smaller
boats Of the Baltic sqadron may find
difficulty in passing the gateway to
the east unless the crisis is COM
pletely over by the time they reach
the entrance to the Mediterranean.
