Hutchinson was wearing"
Both Mr.. Evans and Mr. Hutchinson
laughed over the bandits peculiar idea
of the value of watches, as it was adj
mitted that the Evans timepiece was
more valuable than the watch carried
off by the robber.
1.-The highwayman paid no attention
to Mrs. Evans and Mrs. Hutchinson, u
continued Mr.. Evans. This may have
been because he was nervous and anxi-

who was in the Geoghegan party, sand
that the bandit got only 50 from him
and overlooked $500 which Mr.. Foster
had in his coat pocket.
I'VE drove up in time to see the stage
in which some California tourists were
riding move on, said Mr.. Foster. The
bandit first approached ]. Y. Rich and
demanded his money. Mr.. Rich hand
ed him a letter of Introduction which
he had in his pocket. The robber
glanced at il and then angrily handed
it back What's this for he demand
ed, jabbing Mr. Rich in the ribs with
his rifle, I want your money Mr.
Rich gave him about $l20. Mrs. Rich
was also compelled to empty her purse
when my turn came, | fumbled in
several pockets and gathered together
the 80. This l gave the highwayman
He grumbled because the amount
was so small. Seeing a $40 gold piece
lying in the dust of the road which
had fallen from Mrs. Rich's purse when
she had opened it, pointed 10 IT. He
stopped down to pick up the coin, re-
marking; Every little bit helps -
Seeing the stage behind us coming
around the curve, the highwayman or
dered our driver to whip up his horses
remarking: Here comes tire real thing.
Then, saying that some of us might
imagine that his rifle was not loaded
he discharged the weapon in the air
saying: TN meet you all in heaven.
THE California men, in the stage
ahead of us. L was told. were able to
secret $1,000 or 5000. In other coaches
the bandit overlooked other large
sums
Mr.. Geoghegan said that the high
wayman must have taken about 81, 00C
from the passengers in the sixteen
stages.

amount taken from the tourists on one
of the stage lines. But the coaches OF

could not have picked out the place for
the hold-up without perfectly under
standing the surroundings.
From the spot, he was not only able
to stop the stages as they came along
without fear of any escaping him, but
was able to make his escape quickly in
the direction in which he had probably
already prepared a hiding place.
There were probably other men in

steely gray. and looked determined.
THE man seemed nervous, but ham
died his rifle in a manner that sug-
gested long familiarity with the
weapon.
II do not know how much money the
robber collected from the sixteen stages
he stopped one after another, but there
is no doubt that he missed more than
he took because of the necessary haste
with which he operated.
The highwayman had little time tC
devote to rifling the pockets of the oc-
cupants Of the stages. AS fast as he
stopped one vehicle, another would ap-
proach. He seemed unwilling to run
the risk of having line of stages wait
in the road for his attention, and would
hurry the vehicles along at sight of the
approach of a new load of victims.
1T is possible that when he took
his position at the side of the road II
was his intention to rob only a few OF
the stages, but they crowded so closely
one after another that he changed his
plan and halted ali of them.

THRILLING TALE
OF PARK ROBBERY
Passengers Who Were Victims
of HighWayman in Yellow
stone Give Accounts.
HOW DESPERATE WORKED
SLIGHTLY NERVOUS, BUT New
ERTHELESS EFFECTIVE.

Victims of the lone bandit of Vel
lowstone national park who reached
Salt Lake yesterday were united in the
opinion that the daring highwayman
was not some wanderer who CHANGED u
ramhle into the park and was tempted
10 hold up the tourists, but was a
man who was well acquainted with the
park country and had spent consider
able time in preparing for his spec
tacular descent upon the sightseers.
Among the Salt Lakers who got back
from Yellowstone yesterday were
Joseph Geoghegan and his two daugh-
ters, Mr.. and Mrs. Sidney ID. Evans,
Mr.. and Mrs. A. Z. Hutchinson and
son. Mr.. and Mrs. J. Y. Rich. Miss Vera
and Miss Luella Cutler, daughters of
Thomas r. Cutler, William w. Bellows,
manager of the Utah-Bingham Mining
company and others. Mr.. and Mrs. w.
II. Foster of New York returned with
the Geoghegan party.
Spot Well Adapted.
The place selected by the robber for
the hold-up," said Mr.. Hutchinson, was
ideal-from the highwayman's point of
view. On one side there was a steep
hillside and on the other a stream.
NeHlcltS approaching tne spot were
compelled to round a curve, which
brought them right under the robber's
rifle before the drivers and the tour
lists were aware Of what was going on
ahead. BY the time they caught sight
of the bandit there was no way of es-
Gaping and there was nothing TO do
but to drive on and take what came.
The robber had his head covered
with what seemed to be n piece of
cheese cloth or a portion of a flour
sack, in which two holes were cut
through which he could look.
las his face was completely covered
by the mask, l was not able to tell
whether he wore a beard, although in
the descriptions sent out il was said
that he had gray whiskers But I

Chicago, March 4.-The long strug-
gle for control Of the Illinois Central
railroad was ended when the oft
adjourned annual meeting of stock
holders was held and four directors
were elected. With only formal pro-
tests recorded by the interests headed
by Stuyvesant Fish, which have been
opposing the administration of the
road, Hartman and John Jacob AS
tor were reelected to the board; A.
G. Hackstaff. who has been serving as
director since the death of John c..
yelling, was chosen to fill the un-
expired term and Jos. F. Titus, as
sistant to President Harahan, was
elected to succeed Stuyvesant Fish
upon the directorate. Mr.. Titus, how
ever, is to serve only a few weeks,
President Harahan announcing to the
stockholders that J. Ogden Armour
of Chicago will be chosen to the board
in place of Mr.. Titus as soon as the
stock owned by Mr.. Armour can be

rounds before the Pacific Athletic club
in this city last night with Britt
slight victor in point of blows landed
and Nelson somewhat the stronger at
the close, but unable to overcome the
cleverness of his opponent The fight
seemed ended in the sixth round when
Britt appeared to have received a
knockout blow at Nelson's hands, but
was saved by the gong
Nelson showed to advantage in only
three rounds because of telling blows
landed when the men were sparring
openly. The fight was by no means a
savage affair and at times the audi
encs howled at the men to fight.
Time after time Britt escaped the
leads of the always coming Nelson,
awaiting his opportunity to send in the
hard lefts that finally tired the Dane
and rendered it improbable that he
would be able to land a knockout blow.
In all, Nelson did not land over dozen
blows that figured in the result while
Britt, always giving ground stepped
out of range whenever possible and
frequently Strengthened Nelson up with
the left. In conformity with the law
no decision was rendered.

Spirit of the Law.
MONTHLY SALE LARGE
One Store Disposes Of l,lOO
Gallons During January.
Names of the Purchasers Will
Be Made Public.

Chanute, Kan.,s March A move
ment has been started by Rev. l. B.
Pulliam Of the Methodist church to Sc
cure the cancellation of all druggists
liquor permits in Neosho county. At
the close of a sermon in which Rev.
Pulliam made an attack on the drug
stores holding permits. he read a petit
ton which was addressed to Probate
Judge Alleman, in which 1t was charged
that both the letter and the spirit of
the law was being violated daily in
Chanute, and the petition asked that
the probate judge revoke all such per-
m1ts to sell liquor in the county and
that he issue no more permits in the
future to any one, whom he believed
to have violated the provisions of the
prohibitory law. The petitions were cir
culated in the audience Immediately
following, and one hundred and seven
male signatures were secured. At the
close of the service another petition
for women was circulated on suggestion
of F. w. Bettes of the National Supply
company, and 120 signatures secured.
| In addition to this. petitions are to be
circulated by committees of two among
| the several churches of the city, and all
| the petitions will be presented to the
| probate judge this week
| The sermon delivered by Rev. Pulliam
was the second or a series In winch
| he had attacked local druggists holding
permits, by the aid of blackboard.
On the blackboard he had table show
! ing the number of sales made by the
| druggists during the months Of No
vember, December and January, also
the amount Of liquor each drug store
had purchased, and the amount of
liquor each has in stock. In concluding
1 his remarks Rev. Pulliam stated that
| he had the name Of Chanute citizen
who had made liquor purchases for five
days in succession and also. the name
4 of a man of weak mental condition
who had made purchases, and he de-
clared that unless conditions changed
his next blackboard move would be to
print a list of those who We're making
| the most extensive purchases. The Rev
Mr.. Pulliam was quite satrical in his
remarks regarding the sickness in Cha
mute as shown by the number Of sales

New York. March Ave don't
need Ty Cobb to win the American
league pennant this year." said w. H.
Yawkey. principal stockholder of the
Detroit baseball club. I'VE can win
1t without him. We need Cobb and
Cobb needs the team, but neither is
indispensable to the other. 1 do not
make this statement with any inten-
ton or desire of detracting from
Cobb's reputation as a ball player for
I consider him the greatest outfielder
in the business. Detroit Is not one
man team, and Cobb will neither make
or break 1t.
However, expect to see Cobb in
the lineup. But If he doesn't come
into camp we have Matty Mcintyre. as
good as ever, and with Davey Jones
and Sam Crawford would have as
formidable an outfield as any of them.
with Rossman in shape, the infield
is stronger, and Ira Thomas will
strengthen the catching staff. Look
out for the Tigers. They are again
American league pennant winners"
Yawkey firmly believes his team is a
sure pennant winner and is willing to
make a few wagers to that effect
