Kerkhoven, MINI, Oct. 26.-A band
Of yeggmen is operating thru this part
Of the state. EARLY yesterday the gang
was in Kerkhoven and later descended
on Murdoch, and still later paid its re-
spects to the village Of Spicer.
The attempt to crack the safe in the
Kerkhoven bank was complete iasco.
The robber gang invaded the town
late at night and found no one up ex-
cept quartet of travelling men who

his pistol at the startled men, threaten
ing that if any demonstration was made
by them his associates would open fire.
One bandit stood guard over the fright
ened prisoners while the other four pro-
ceeded to $the bank.
Safe Blown into Street.
A series of fortunate happenings pre-
vented the, complete looting Of the
bank. It was not long before ter
rife explosion shook all the adjoin-
ing buildings, and it was discovered
that the safe of the bank had been
blown thru the plate:gl windows in
the front of the building: and landed

street. @-.-
The bandits rushed to the safe while
the citizens who had been aroused by
the explosion, now collected rapidly in
the street. Many of the latter were
armed, and for time pitched battle
was imminent. There might have been
bloodshed but for the fact that those
who were armed were warned not to
fire lest retaliation might mean the
death or serious injury of several cit
liens. .. s-.- e
By this time the bandits had become
alarmed at the number of men who
had gathered, and started on a run for
the railroad track. At Murdoch, seven
miles away, they robbed a grocery store
of a good breakfast, taking bread, sar-
dimes, cheese and other food. Still
later they took team from farmer
and drove into the village Of Spicer.
The same chapter of misfortunes,
from their viewpoint, seems to have
followed them to Spicer, for all the

TO INvEsTIGATE KANSAS.
Interstate Commerce Commission VIII
 Review Rail Rates.

Kansas City, Mo, March 11.-Francis M Cockrill, Hudson c. Clements and Charles A. Prouty, members of the ln- terstate Commerce Commission, arriv- ed in Kansas City tonight and tomor- row will begin the hearing of testimo- ny on alleged illegal rates charged by railroad companies for shipment or oil from the Kansas fields.
 It is expected that two and probably three days will be consumed in the hearing. Frank s. Monnett. former attorney general of Ohio, and Clifford Thorne, of Washington, Iowa, will be attorneys for the oil producers.
 The oil producers are satisfied with the rates existing between points in side the State of Kansas. These are controlled by the maximum rate law passed by the last session of the Leg islature. But the rates to any points outside of the State are said to be absolutely prohibitive and in the in- terest of the Standard oil Company. The producers will show rate sheets issued by the railroad companies as ev- idence.
 The railroads complained of are the Santa Fe, Missouri Pacific. Missouri, Kansas and Texas, Rock Island, St. Louis and San Francisco, Union Pa cifc, Kansas City Southern and ths Burlington Route. Members of the producers association and railroad of ficials will be the chief witnesses.

London March 1.-The correspond ent of The Daily Mail at Algeciras re- ports France as having been coerced by the neutral powers into making con- sessions on the police question probably as the result of apprehension on the part of the powers that failure of the conference would mean war.
 The correspondent declares that for France to enter Morocco as one of two powers subject to the domination of a third power would be suicidal. It would be better for France. he says, to sur render al her interests in Morocco rather than to suffer such loss of prestige.
