ATTEMPT TO WRECK TRAIN
Attempt to Wreck Limited Train of the
= Northern Pacific by Taking up Rail
Near Medina.

An attempt was made to wreck
train No. on the Northern Pacific at
q point about one and one-half miles
this side Of Medina, on last Saturday
evening. After train No. 4, which
passed that point an hour and a half
late, had gone by the spikes were
drawn from the ties on the outside of
the rails for g. distance of twenty feet,
and the rail sprung outward so as to
throw the passing train from the
track. The perpetrators Of the deed
We're concealed over the bank of the
cut, when one of the trackmen whose
duty it is to examine the track after
each passing train, came along and
discovered the condition OF the rail.
He Immediately set to work to replace
the rail, when he was set upon by
two Of the would be wreckers. The
third one remaining in the rig just
over the embankment. During the
struggle in which the trackman made
good use of his track wrench, while
the attacking party used knives, the

finished it, with the exception Of the
steeples and some decorations. The
building is Of brick and the pews are
very old black wood. People come in
at all times Of the day and night, kneel
and offer up prayer. It is the most
beautiful place, the most inspiring, by
all odds, that have ever visited. The
surroundings are SO old and SO quiet
and SO peaceful, and the beautiful
faith of these good people is so evident
ly sincere this church must have done
great good to the human race in the
last two centuries. We visited the old
French markets, where people bring
their fruit, fowls, fish and vegetables
and offer them for sale. We ate our
dinner there and had a French omelet.
It was composed mostly Of red pepper,
birthstone, tabasco sauce, plug tobac-
co, and other warm ingredients, to this
deponent unknown. We visited the
wharf, rode around the city in a street
car, witnessed the first parade of
Mardi Gras in the evening. The Mardi
Gras is an immense street fair, where

former received two ugly cuts-one on
the side Of the neck and one on the
wrist. Breaking away from his as
sailants the trackman ran toward the
station, when he was shot at three
times by the man in the rig. He sue
ceeded in getting to the station in
time to hold the train and wire the
authorities at Jamestown.
The sheriff and posse were on the
track of the wreckers within three
hours after encounter with the track
man, and as the track could be plainly
followed by day light there seems to
be but little room to doubt that they
will be caught.
Had both trains been on time the
.tracKman would not have had time to
reach the displaced rail before the
train would have been thrown from
the trac4., and as it would have been
going at a full rate Of speed the wreck
would doubtless have been complete,
with a long list of casualties in dead
and wounded.

MUST PAY DUTY.
Pickled Sheepskins Classi- fled as Partially Manu-
 factured Goods.

New York, Sept 3.-Notice from the treasury department has been re- ceived by the collector Of customs that hereafter pickled sheepsklns shall be classified as partially manu- fractured articles calling for duty of 20 per cent. This ruling upsets de- cision of the board of United Srates general appraisers rendered in March, 1899, after one of the most exhaustive hearings in the history of the board.
 Picked sheepskins have been com ing in for years free of duty, as raw skins, and in 1899 an attempt was made to collect duty on them. Be- tween thirty and forty witnesses, however, testified that the picking was not a process of manufacture, but was merely done to preserve the skins during the voyage and that the pickle had all to be washed out before they were tanned.
 Firms in the leather trade, which are deeply interested in the matter, declare they will make a test of the ruling.
