Loot of Famous Express
Robbery at That Place.

Omaha. Neb., Jan. 9O.-Superinten-
dent Patterson of the Pacific Express
company returned to Omaha from Sid
ney, Neb., today, bringing with him
two large bricks of bullion. believed to
represent part of the loot of robbery
of the cOmpany's office in Sidney, Neb.,
in March. 1880. The metal was found
buried in the debris of a saloon which
burned down two weeks ago. The rob-
berry was the boldest of its kind ever
pulled off in the west, and The bullion
which had been received that day by
stage from the Black Hills. was valued
at 1927, 600. One of the bricks was sold
to the Denver mint a year after, the

che time came today to put up the flag
the auction room was so crowded that
many persons were unable to obtain
admission. The man who finally Sc
cured the flag started the bidding with
an offer of 5000. but he was soon chal-
lenged by other dealers, among whom
was representative of an American
who said he wanted the flag for the
American navy league. The price was
soon up to S1.500.
Small Bidders Dropped Out.
Here all the other bidders dropped out
and the contest was carried on by two
dea1ers. both of whom were said to
represent Americans. There was a long
pause when the price had reached s.. 400
but then. on bids of $3.50 at a time. it
was rapidly forced up to 81, $50, at which
figure the hammer fell.
As soon as the sale was made there
were loud calls in the auction room of

corrected the mistake.

sis, J. A. Martin, a carpenter of this

FLAG OF MAN OF WAR CHESAPEAKE
SOLD AT AUCTION SALE FOR S4.25O

London, Jan 3O-The flag of the
American man-of-war Chesapeake and
"Balaklava bugle," two of the most val
liable war relics of a collection of an
tiquities that belonged to the late T. G.
Middlebrook, were secured today at
the auction sale of the collection for
American buyers. The Chesapeake
flag was captured i'm the fight with the
british ship shannon in 1913, and there
was good bidding for the faded and
torn piece of bunting, the authenticity
of which is vouehed for in a written
history of ownership since Midshipman
Grundy of the Royal navy came into
possession of the trophy nearly CEN
fury ago. The nag was sold for $3.50
to a London art dealer, who also pur-
chased the bugle for $500. less than half
what Mr. Middlebrook paid for il ten
years ago. II was upon this instrument
that the order of the light brigade to
charge at the battle of Balaklava was
sounded
Bought for Americans.
The dealer admitted that these high
ly interesting curios had been purchased
by him for different parties in America,
but more than this he would not say.
There was a rumor that he was acting
for Cornelius Vanderbilt, but this was
subsequently denied, and London does
not yet know in whose hands the flag
and the bugle have fallen.
The auction of the Middlebrook cur
los has been going on for two days and
has attracted much attention. When

Reign of Terror in Lisbon
ConSpirators Fight Police
One of Latter Killed.

Lisbon, Jan. 3O.-For the purpose of
escaping the censorship, the following
dispatch is sent to the frontier for
transmission:
Lisbon is outwardly calm. but there
is a steady increase of nervousness and
excitement among all classes of the pop
ulaIion owing to the constant rumors
of plot and counterpart and the per-
sistent activity of the police, who daily
and nightly examine the houses of sus-
poets and make arrests. on the night
of Jan. % there was a bloody fight in
a small restaurant on the outskirts of
Lisbon. Suspecting the presence of a
crowd of conspiratOrs, the police sur
rounded aud raided the restaurant. The
authorities were right in the surmise,
and they found the plotters armed with
revolvers.
Met by VoIIey.
The policemen were met by volley
of bullets, and one of them was killed
and four wounded. The conspirators
managed TO keep the guardians of law
and order at bay until they made their
escape. Later the same night a score of
suspected agitatOrs were arrested and
imprisoned in one of the fortresses.>
There is almost a reign of terror
among the republicans and dissident
progressists, and several of the leaders
of these parties. including Deputy AL
media, Deputy Costa and Viscount Re-
beira. have been thrown into prison.
The house of Senior Alpoin, another of
the dissident leaders, is under constant
police surveillance.
