MISSOULA, Mont, May 27-Passen-
ger train No. 2, eastbound on the
Northern Pacific, was held up last
night at 11:35 at Bear Mouth cut, about
forty miles east of this city, and the
express car blown to pieces. Three
men are known to have been con-
cerned in the crime, but details of their
actions are lacking. No fatalities are
reported.
No. Q left Missoula behind time, in
charge of Conductor Sayer and En-
gineer Wilson. AS the train pulled into
Bear Mouth cut man was seen walk
ing ahead of the train carrying a va
lise Signal lights were displayed at
the station and as the train slowed
down Engineer Wilson was covered by
a gun by one man while the other un-
coupled the baggage and express cars
and ordered the engineer to pull
ahead.
When the cut out cars reached a
point three miles east of Bear Mouth
station, in a desolate section, the en-
gine was stopped and, unler cover OF
guns, the engineer and fireman were
ordered to tell the express messenger
! to open his door. Dynamite was placed
under the car and exploded, wrecking
the car, but whether the messenger
escaped or not is not known at this
| time.
Meager word was sent here and to
Drummond. Sheriff Graham wired to
Deer Lodge to have the bloodhounds
sent from the penitentiary and imme-
diately organized a posse. A special
was made up and five horses were
taken with the party. Twenty men
were organized at Drummond and will
Join the sheriff at the scene of the
hold-up.
1t is believed that no railroad men
were involved. Officials here have no
idea how much coin was in the safe
or how much booty the highwaymen
secured. No passengers were moested,
though several shots were fired.

CENSORSHIP RIGOROUS
St. Petersburg Accepts 1t as Evidence
of Japanese Defeat
By Associated Press.

LONDON, May 27.-There is no longer
any question that the Russian war fleet
under command of Vice Admiral Ro-
jestvensky has entered the straits Of
Korea on the final stage of its long
journey to Vladivostok, Port Arthur,
it's former objective, having in the
meanwhile fallen into the hands Of the
Japanese.
Beyond the fact that the Russians
were yesterday in the vincinity of the
Tsu islands all is conjecture. Ap-
parently the only avenues of news
transmission are held by the Japanese,
and the authorities of that country are
exercising a rigorous censorship.
The paucity Of information which the
censor has permitted to pass has
formed the basis for the belief in high
quarters at st. Petersburg that an en-
gagement has been fought and that the
Japanese have suffered, the theory be-
ing that, were the facts otherwise, they

PHILADELPHIA, May 27.-After a
contest lasting FIVE days the Republican
organization led by Insurance Com
missioner Israel w. Durham, was
forced today by public opposition and
clamor to abandon its efforts to extend
the lease of the city gas works to the
United Gas Improvement company for
seventy-five years. Thomas Dolan,
president of the company, today for
warded a formal letter to the presi-
dents of the select and common
branches of the city council withdraw
ing his proposition to advance the city
$4,000, 900 in consideration of the ex-
tension of the lease which the company
now holds. This action was taken after
protracted conference with Commits
sioner Durham State Senator McNich- =
oil and Select Councilman Charles Seger,
who presented the gas lease resolutions
in the councils. The withdrawal of the
United Gas Improvement company 5
offer is undoubtedly signal victory for
Mayor Weaver in his fight against the
Organization" though it does not mean
the end of the battle.
The injunction proceedings brought
by David Smythe, former director of
publ safety, and Peter e. Costello,
former director of public works, against
Mayor Weaver and their successors,
Col. Sheldon Potter and A. Lincoln
Acker to restrain the mayors ap-
pointees from conducting the affairs Of
the two departments are still to come
up for argument, and the leaders will
make q determined effort to have the
Temporary injunction made permanent.
The temporary injunction issued by
the common pleas court was rendered
imperative by writ of supersedeas
procured by the mayors counsel from
the supreme court. Chief Justice
Mitchell of the higher court has, how
ever, sent the case back to the lower
court for argument and the super
sedeas is in effect only until the ques-
tion of the injunction has been decided
by that tribunal.
In answer to questions Mr.. Durham,
leader of the organization" said:
''We have no statements whatever
of the new gas lease of the United Gas
Improvement company"
The leaders left for Atlantic City to-
night, and conference will be held
there to consider plans for future
moves.
Mayor Weaver said:
IT consider this a great triumph for
the people. have not yet considered
how thfs will affect local or state poll
tics. I may add that 1 have not yet
considered whether the fight will be
continued or not"
1t was announced by the judge of the
common pleas court that the hearing
of the injunction proceedings would
be postponed from Monday until
Wednesday on account of the death of
Justice Deane of the state supreme
court.
General satisfaction was expressed
throughout the city when it became
known that the gas lease offer had
been withdrawn. Mass meetings which
had been arranged in many wards to
protest against the lease were largely
attended, and the mayors victory was
the subject of all addresses.

CHICAGO May 27.-The White City,
the "Coney Island of the West" was
formally opened today to crowds of
people that filled the streets for blocks
in every direction from the entrance.
The White City in appearance is not
unlike the worlds fair at Chicago,
in so far as the architecture and color
of the buildings are concerned. 1t is a
pleasure resort, combining the attrac-
tive features that were seen on the
Midway during the worlds fair at Chi
cago and on the Pike at st. Louis.
Located on the south side, about a
mile west of the old worlds fair
grounds, the white city occupies about
twenty acres filled with buildings, all
painted white and of permanent con-
struction. The buildings cost some
thing over million dollars and will,
in the future, be an attraction every
summer.
The general design of the structures
and the landscape features We're i'm
tended to revive in the minds of the
citizens of Chicago and visitors to the
worlds fair the Columbia exposition in
1898. While not as large as the worlds
fair. White City will accommodate from
25. 900 to 10000 people daily and will be
open to the public daily and at night
including Sundays.

Two weeks ago there were rumors
that she was to become the wife of Mr.

SECURE TOOLS AND BAD COIN
Secret Service Men Visit Small Cabin
at Arroyo Grande Station
and Surprise Its
Occupant
SECURE TOOLS AND BAD COIN

Francisco Mattos, alleged to be one
of the smoothest counterfeiters oper-
ating in California, was arrested yes
terday morning by officer Cronin of the
United States secret service and is now
lodged in the San Luis Obispo county
Jail.
officer Cronin, who returned to Los
Angeles late yesterday afternoon, said
the alleged counterfeiter was caught
in the act of making spurious gold
coins in little cabin at Arroyo Grande
station in San Luis Obispo county.
For the last three months the United
States marshal has been receiving COM
plants from a number of places in
Southern California that counterfeit
IS and $40 gold pieces have been cir
culated. Every effort has been made
on the part of the federal officials to
locate the counterfeiters, but until a
few days ago no clew as to their where
abouts could be learned.
1t was learned by officer Cronin that
an alleged counterfeiter was operating
in San Luis Obispo county and he i'm
mediately followed up this line of in
formation, with the result that Mattos
was arrested early yesterday morning.
Is Taken UnaWares
Officer Cronin and one of his assist
ants went to a cabin under suspicion
in Arroyo Grande early yesterday
morning and, according to the story
told last evening, the two men found
Mattos busily at work with base
metals, acid baths and all the neces-
sary materials of a counterfeiter's out
fit After observing his work from a
window in the cabin for several min
utes the officers, armed with revolvers,
rushed into the cabin and ordered
Mattos to throw up his hands.
Being taken by surprise Mattos
made no resistance, but surrendered
all his finished work and tools to the
officers.
When questioned by the officials
Mattos declared that he could not talk
English, as he has been here from
Portugal but a short time, and from
this fact the United States authorities
believe that Mattos is but one of an
organized gang of counterfeiters that
| have been operating in Southern Cali
fornia for the last six months.
Arrangements have been made to
bring Mattos to Los Angeles tomor-
row, and Tuesday he will be arraigned
before the United States commissioner.
