the favorite field of operations and all day
crowds of boys and youths were engaged
in putting dynamite caps on the tracks, to
be exploded by the wheels of the cars.
The terrific noise from these. however, was
not loud enough for the celebrators, and
mixtures of sulphur and chlorute of po-
tassium were made and small piles OF the
stuff placed on the tracks, the resultant
explosions shaking the nelghborhood. The
mixture was compounded by adding one
part sulphur to three parts chlorate OF
potassium. Late in the afternoon pieces
of iute bagging were fastened to the fen
ders of the Turnpike cars and these acted
as sweepers 10 clear the tracks of the
explosives.
Chin Jim, a Chinese lanndryman, Of S2

GIBSON HELD FOR MURDER
Deputy Constable at Goldfield, Who
Killed a Mining Engineer
Bound Over by Justice.
(Snecial to The Herald.

Goldfield, New. Aug. 21-Deputy Con-
stable George Gibson. who shot and killed
trict court by Justice of the Peace Hen
ley on the charge of murder. Immediately
following a verdict rendered by a coro-
ner's jury. The evidence disclosed the
fact that Gibson was drunk and abusive
when the trouble occurred. and that the
badly pummeed features he exhibited at
the time of his arrest were the result OF a
scrap with one of the female denizens of
the under world previous to the shooting.
Feeling ran high in town after the in
quest, and for time it was feared that
the officer would be severely handled.
The prompt action of the justice in hold
ing the man on the charge of murder
averted any overt act.

She leaned forward in her chair and

Tears welled into the eyes of the

Plan to Save Woman.
It is believed that there was an I'M
Outstanding between Allan and Rogers
and the railroads that the woman was
not to be further prosecuted in the event
they confessed and took all the blame
for the crime committed in the state.
It Is a strange coincidence that prior
to this time the man had depended upon
the condition of the woman as strong
card to their own favor. Indeed they ex-
pected to get their liberty through her
A strong plea was made at the time of
their preliminary hearing to allow her
to go free on account of her condition
An attorney was sent down from New
York to look after their interests. Every
sort of inducement in the way of bail
was offered to secure the release of the
woman, who is young and pretty ana
who claims to have had a stage career
in the Broadway theatres before becom-
ing Mrs. Allan.
Every move that was made in this re-
gard was successfully cOmbated by the
Virginia authorities. The scheme was to
have Mrs. Allan released on bail. after
which she was to have returned to New
York. plead guilty to the Virginia thefts
before a New York court. and get a six
months sentence under the laws of New
York. when the cases against the men in
Virginia would necessarily have fallen
flat. Within six months or even less,
the entire band would have been at lib
erty to continue their work of robbing
the railways. The release of the young
woman from the New York prison with
such trifling sentence confronting her
would have been a comparatively easy
matter.
