NO EQUITABLE FOR pEPEw.
"Passes Up" Insurance With the So
cetv,


New York, Aug. A man in the
Equitable Life Assurance society, who
is in position to speak definitely
said yesterday that Senator Chauncey
M. Depew is not carrying a penny's
worth of life insurance in the Equita-
BILE.
Senator Depew is down in little
book called prominent Patrons OF
Life Insurance." issued annually by
an insurance publication in this city
as CARRYING policies aggregatng $780,
900, and he has been regarded as IN
life insurance circles generally as a
heavy policy holder.
The figures stated in the booklet app
parently were gathered with a good
deal of care According to the an
nouncement by the editors. circulars
were sent each man whose
name is in the book asking for verb
tication, and lists We're sent different
insurance companies for correction.
The statement by the Equitable au-
thority is that none of the insurance
is carried in the society of which the
senator has been member of the
governing board for so many years.
The Equitable paid Senator Depew
retainer of 100000 a year for good
many years. There was all sorts OF
speculation today as to what company
or companies might he carrying the
senator as policy holder but no def
firtite information was obtainable. Of
ficers Of both the Mutual and New
York Life companies refused to dis
cuss the matter Their lists of policy
holders, they said. We're strictly con-
fidential and under no circumstances
would they disclose single name for
publications
Senator Depew was not at the
Equitable building, but his friends
said he would probably be glad to
make a statement regarding his
policies If 1t is true he is carrying
100000, as reported.

THE G. N. HOLD-UP
The Overland Limited Held Up by
Masked Robbers Near Ballard
Monday Night.

The first Information the people of
this town had of the hold up was when
the limited which is due here at 2:25 a.
M, arrived little after day light last
Tuesday morning.
The express car looked as if it had
passed through a Kansas cyclone, but
knowing that this country is not visited
by elemental terrors of this kind, an
other explanation was sought, when it
was learned that the train had passed
through the hands of a hold-up gang
four miles north of Ballard
The train was in charge of Conduc-
tor Joe Grant and Engineer John Cal
der with Fireman Edward Goulett, all
OF whom are we'll known here. When
the train pulled into Ballard two
tramps who We're riding on the back of
the tender helped what they took to be
a fellow tramp to place beside them
selves. This fellow crawled on top of
the tender and covered the engineer
with gun and told him to bring the
train to a stand at a certain point,
where camp fire burned beside the
track. They then made the fireman
go to the express car and ask the mes
senger to open the car and get out.
This the fireman did, at the same time
being careful to tell the messenger who
he was. They exploded dynamite on
the safe. Twice they blew the safe
without result. The third time they
put some twenty sticks of dynamite on
the safe and touched it off, This time
the safe yielded. They then put their
swag in sack and made off. The
time consumed in getting into the safe
was about one and half hours.
The two tramps were ordered to get
back into the coachss. Accounts diff
fer as to the number engaged in the
hold-up. From the best information
obtainable there must have been as
many as three. While the safe crack
ing was going on confederate was
taking a Shot at any one who was inn
prudent enough to open a window to
see what was the matter.
1t was reported that large amount
of money was obtained but this the
railroad company denies.
AT the point where the train stopped
the track runs along the shore of the
sound and it is believed the desperadoes
made their escape in a boat. The night
was very dark and heavy rain was
falling all the time.
Engineer P. j. McGregor with his
wife and children We're on the train
returning from Seattle, and tell many
amusing stories of the behavior of the
passengers, who expected to be asked
to deliver their valaables also.
No trace of the outlaws has been
found by the officers. An investiga-
tion convinces the knowing ones that
the job was done by two of the smooth
est and most desperate hOld-up men
known-Jake Terry and Bill Miner,
the two men who held up the Cana
dian Pacific about year ago.

THE EEFECT OH oar EXHIBIT.

The display of fruits and vege-
tables which was made at the
county fair last week by the
farmers and fruit growers from
the vicinity of Leayenworth and
Peshastin was very creditable.
The exhibit attracted more at
iention than the products from
the lower Wenatchee river val
ley. The reason for this is that
they came from q portion of the
county that has heretofore been
overlooked.
1t had always been said that
the elevation was too high for
farm products to mature and
fruits to ripen. The exhibit was
a positive disproval of this as
sertion. The products we ex-
hibited at the fair compared in
size and quality with Inc pest on
exhibition.
In the future this locality must
be ranked with the best fruit
and farming lands in Eastern
Washington. Our arabic lands
are just as productive and just
us well adapted to the cultivation
pf fruits, vegetables and general
ttrm products as are the lands
in the lower valley. This being
tru. there is no reas on why we
should not get large emigra-
iion. As yet the lands in this
vicinity are much cheaper than
in the lower valley. Having
demonstrated to the world that

The extension of free postal delivery

the special land agent. The inhabit-

take and are now moving on the even
