A CAREER or CRIME.
Gus Marx, Under Sentence of Death,
Makes a Startling Confession.

Chicago, March 14.-Hanging for all
was the verdict of inc jury in the first
murder case against the so-called car
barn bandits" Harvey Van Dine, Peter
Niedermeier and Gustav Marx. Roeski
is to be tried separately.
Chicago, March 14.-Gustave Marx,
one of the three car barn bandits now
under sentence of death, declared in
a confession made Sunday that he was
one of three men who held up the Chi
cago & Northwestern express train at
Tower w, near Dekalb, four years ago.
The crime, which has passed into his
tory as one of the most desperate ever
committed in or about Chicago, has
never been fastened upon any one of
the many suspects arrested. and the
identity of the bandits has remained
mystery to the police until now.
Marx says both his cOnfederates in
the crime are dead and refuses to give
their names. One of them, he declares,
Died with his boots on" The rail-
way authorities admitted a loss of
100000 by the robbery. Marx says.
the robbers secured only $4,000, the.
rest of the money having been de-.
strOyed by the explosion Of dynamite
used to crack the safe.
In a sort of foot note to this start
ling confession, Marx admits the kill
ing of five men in his career of crime.
Besides John B. Johnson, killed at
the car barns, Detective Quinn, killed.
at the time of my arrest, and Otto
Bauder, whom Roeski is generally sup,
posed to have killed, have killed two
other men," said Marx.
Eight years ago Neidermeier and L
went to GAINESVILLE, Wis, to rob train
and hid our dynamite alongside the
track. A trackwalker, or railway de-
tective, l have never learned which,,
came upon us and asked us what We
were doing there. l shot him and We
threw his body into the Rock river.
The other man whom l killed l had
done criminal work with in Michigan
I met him at Camp Goldfield, Col,
when Neidermeier and l were there
last fall. He talked too much about
me and 1 killed him and left his body
lying in the suburbs of the camp.
These crimes can be verified by the
police

YOUNG MAN UNDER ARREST.
He Is Identified as a Counterfeiter
Well Known to the Officials.

Boston, March IA young man
under arrest here charged with swind-
ling postage stamp dealers and col
lectors was identified Sunday by Sc
cret Service Agent Joseph Murphy, Of
st. Louis, as R. P. H. Wolfe, a cOun-
terfeiter we'll known to the secret serv-
ice bureau. When arrested Wolfe
gave the name of Albert Roth, but Ia
ter admitted his identity. Wolfe
brought TO this city a bogus collection
of stamps, which, if genuine, would
have a value Of $4,000.
His most notable crime was discov-
cred early in 1900, when the got into
trouble with the federal authorities by
raising the denominations of bank
notes. Convicted Of the offense in St.
Louis, he was sentenced to the state
penitentiary at Jefferson City, Mo-, for
five years.
While a prisoner Wolfe managed tn
advertise for rare stamps and did a
considerable business with collectors.
To his advertisement he signed his
convict number 1888" and received
his mail in care of Box AZ, the prison
post Office box. He conducted busi-
ness in this way for some time before
his methods were detected by the pris-
on authorities.

state that the whole of Manchuria is
in state of utter confusion owing to
the Russians having seized all food
supplies and other commissariat neeeS-
sites.
The natives are streaming south TO-
ward the ports and are suffering great
hardships. The late military governor
at Kirin has committed suicide owing
to his inability to relieve the peoples
distress or stop the Russian depreda-
ton.
Toxic, March 14-Oficial and pri-
vate reports both indicate that Adm
Togo's fourth attack on Port Arthur
on the 10th inst was the most effec-
tive since the first assault of a month
ago. One Russian torpedo boat de-
stroHer was sunk and several Russian
torpedo boat destrOyers seriously dam
aged. The Notifications and city were
subjected to a heavy bombardment
lasting nearly four hours. The naval
bombardments of the land works have
generally been ineffective. yet the pc
culiar typographical conditions of Port
Arthur make immunity from serious
loss from bOmbardment impossible
Adm. Togo's torpedo flotiIla opened
the action by boldly steaming in under
the batteries and successfully placing
a number Of mechanical mines at the
mouth of the harbor Following that
there was desperate bow to bow en-
counter between the torpedo boat de-
strOyers in which the Japanese appear
to have scored a clever victory. Then
followed a long range duel between
the cruisers, ending in the retirement
Of the Novik and Bayan, the only Rus
SLAMS engaged.
The closing action was the lombard
ment Of tle inner harbor by the jap
anese battleships. The latter took a
position southwest of Port Arthur and
using only their 12-inch guns. There
were "a 12-inch guns in a squadron of
six battleships and each gun was fired
five rounds, making total of 120 huge
prOjectiles that were fired at the city.
The bOmbardment was deliberate and
carefully planned. In order to aid in
perfecting the firing, Adm Togo sta
toned the cruisers in a position due
east of the entrance to the harbor and
at a right angle to the battleships.
The cruisers observed the range and
effect of firing and signalled the re-
suits by wireless telegraphy. These
observations and reports greatly aided
the gunners in their effort to make
every shot count
Adm. Togo was unable to definitely
learn the results of the bombardment,
but later private reports indicates that
much destruction was caused in the

TO Be INVESTIGATED.
Bristow'S Charges Against Men,
berS of the House.
Committee ppointed-PersonaI Ex-
plantations Will Occur During Con-
sideration of Post Office
Appropriations Bill.

Washington, March 14-The house
will lose no time in acting upon the
authorization of an inquiry into t1e
circumstances of the Bristow report
Speaker Cannon appointed a select
committee to conduct the investiga-
ton
The committee consists of Represen-
tatives Mccall (Mas), Burton (O),
Hit Ill), Metcalf (Cal), republicans,
and McDermott IN. j., Bartlette (Ga)
and Richardson (Ala.), democrats.
None of these men was mentioned
in the Bristow report and none is
member of the committee on post Of
fees and post roads. So far as the
republicans are concerned. this is not
political inquiry, but an inquisitiOn
in behalf of the dignity and integrity
of the house of representatives.
The investigation is not to go be-
yond the subject of the relations Of
members Of congress to the post Office
department in tAe cases specially set
forth in the Bristow report.
All sessions at which witnesses are
examined will be open to the public
and the press.
An extended period of personal ex-
planation undoubtedly will occur in
the hC1se during the consideration Of
the post Office appropriation bill! which
will be called up Monday by Chair
man Overstreet. Monday rightfully
belongs to the District of Columbia,
but there are few local matters on the
calendar and Mr. Babcock will abdi-
cate in favor of the post Office bill.
The necessity which many members
Of the house feel to have t1e Congress
sional Record contain certain state
ments in explanation Of their alleged
misconduct with the post Office depart
ment in regard to clerk hire, allow
ances and rent of post Office quarters
has led the managers Of the house to
adopt most liberal policy with refer
ence to general debate on the post of
fee bill. When these statements are
all out of the way the bill will be dis
posed of and not before
Tne bill making appropriations for
the support Of the military academy
will follow the post Office bill and as
there are no special orders for claims
or pensions to interfere it may be that
both of these supply measures will be
disposed Of this week.
