BLOODY TRAGEDY INLONDON SUBURB Two Russians Kill Three and
 Wound Many HIGHWAY ROBBERY TRIED Automobile With Pay of Employees Is Held Up and Money Taken, Then
 Follows Pursuit and
 Fatal Fight.
HIGHWAY ROBBERY TRIED

London. January 2s.-Three persons were killed and a injured at Wailnaii'7 town suburb of London as the ies'.. ,l,. of sensational attempt made today ps two Russians at highway robbery The men were run down and surrounded ey a posse. and one of them finally commit ted suicide. The other attempted suiclde' hut did not succeed, although he is now lying in a critical condition at rotten ham hospital.
 Two of their victims, policeman and a hoy of 10. lie det d while five Of the injured are in a hospital. seriously wound- ed.
 London is breathless at the sensational introduction into it's precincts of Russian revolutionary methods. One of the re- ,,o1vers used by the men was found to be the same type as that used py Rus sian revolutionists. having a large putt with rest, a long, narrow muzzie anu firing bullets of the soft nosed, expanding Mauser pattern.
 The bandits held up an automobile con- taining the employees wages at the en- trance to the rubber works, at Wathams- town. and made off with the money. They were followed by few employes and A gradually increasing crowd of po- lice and civilians, few of whom were armed.
 The police jumped aboard trolley car and the bandits, finding themselves close ly pursued, jumped aboard another car and forced the driver with revolver at his head to send his car along at full speed.
 One of the men ran to the rear Of the car and repeatedly emptied his revolver at the pursuers.
 Reinforcements of armed police on foot, bicycles and on horseback joined In the chase and fusillades were exchanged TOT a distance of Il mile.
 The car went laundering down the track with the mounted and bicycle police straining every effort to keep up with the paeemakers. Nearing the Iottehhaii marshes the bandits made the motor man slow down, and jumping off, seized a milk cart and made for the country dis trict. An automobile was pressed into ser vice by the police. and 1t was rapidly over bauling the assassns when they took to the marshes.
 The pursuit through this treacherous ground was difficult, but eventually the police succeeded in overtaking one Of the men. who, finding his position hopeless, turned his weapon upon himself, 1nnlctlng a dangerous wound. The other man, fail- ing to reach Epping forest. took refuge ln A cottage which the police, now rem forced by buck-shooters, first fusilladed and then stor1ned. They found the as- sassin dead on the floor.

SENSATIONS IN
 THE COOPER CASE Ex-Sheriff Cartwright Charged
 With Perjury MANY RUM0RS ARE AFL0AT It Is Reported That Attorney General Mccarn Will Attack More Jurors On Monday-Judge Hart Is
 Much Better
MANY RUMORS ARE AFLOAT

Nashville, January 23.-(Special. .)-Sen- sation, which was more noticeable for it's absence than otherwise on the first two days of the trial of Col. Duncan B. | Cooper, Robin Cooper and John D. sharp, charged with the murder of E. w. Car mack, beginning with the start Friday, has now attained mushroom growth and there is no telling what may develop be- tween now and Monday morning, when the case will be resumed, Judge Hart's health permitting. EX-Sherin Thomas E. Cartwright, one of the most popular men in the county, was arrested shortly after noon today on a warrant sworn out be- fore Squire Jake Levine by Attorney Gen. eral Jeff McCarn, charging him with per- jury. The specific allegation upon which the warrant is based is to the effect that MT. Cartwright perjured himself during the examination as to his competency as a juror, when he declared he had neither formed nor expressed an opiniVn as to the guilt or Innocence of the defendants in this notable case.
 Rumors were floating around the streets and in the corridors of the hotels Friday night to the effect that the attorney gen. erai, when court convened Monday, would attack at least one other juror Rumor diSO lds IL that lle dLtOInSy 6ouSAdl VIII swear out other warrants charging other talesmen, peremptorily challenged by the state, with perjury. It is understood that an effort will be made to recover the per emptory, challenges used by the state on Cartwright and any other whose integrity may be impeached by the attorney gen. eraL
 The Cartwright arrest created @ sensa- tion on the streets. No developments in the case, save the arrest of John Sharp, has created more widespread interest.
 The warrant charging Cartwright with perjury was served by Deputy J. R. Haw- cut. Mir. Cartwright was deeply moved, and strong man that he is, shed tears, and his voice trembled as he asserted his innocence. He was promptly before Squire Levine, where he was bound over to the criminal court, immediately mak- ing bond in the sum of $15O0.
 The case will, in all probability, be pro ceeded with Monday morning, as reports from Judge w. M. Hart's home are all to the effect that his honor Is greatly im- proved after his attack of acute indiges- tion.
 One of the most unusual features about the trial is the alleged presence of large number of detectives in and around the court room at all times. It is said that there is a large number of them, and that every effort Is being made to follow out the course said to have been employed by District Attorney Jerome in the world famous Thaw trials.

BIG EARTHQUAKE
 IS RECORDED

London, January 8.-The seismographs of the continent and England record a severe earthauake at few moments be- fore O clock this morning. Tn some ih- stances the intensity indicated by the needles was nearly as great as that re- corded last month at the time of the Mes- sina disaster.
 The estimates of distance vary rom 2OOO to 5000 miles to the eastward or the point of record. This would place the location of the disturbance in the Caspian region or beyond. in Asiatic Fussia' Afgbanistan. Northern India and swing ine more to the south, the extreme or Arabia and Central Africa The disturb ance also could have been in the Indian ocean. No reports have come In rom anywhere in this designated area to re- port the occurrence of any catastrophe'

HORSEMEAT SOLD
 AS BEEF TO POOR

Chicago, January 2ss-(Specia1.) .)-'Took out for horsemeat sold as beef"
 This is the warning issued today by Dr. Gottfried Koebler. chief food inspec- tor for the city, in the health department.
 Dr. Koebler believes that in half dozen slaughtering plants around Chi cago horses are killed, dressed and the meat shipped into Chicago and to for eign ports. Some of it takes the form of 'corned beef' and some ''meat roasts'' he declares.
 ''In few days I expect to find some of the proprietors where this meat is sold," said the doctor. 'I am confident it is used in some of the free lunch counters and 1t is disposed of by the cheaper class of butchers.

Sour Stomach
Is an Almost Certain Sign of Acute
 Indiuestion


 If you occasionally have taste of sour food in your mouth it surely shows that the food you are taking into your stom- ach is not being digested, but instead. is fermenting and giving out poisonous gases.
 Belchng of gas is a common symptom at such times, and also that lump of lead feeling as if your stomach was carrying a much greater load than 1t could stand. These are sure symptoms of indiges- ton, and should be attended to at once. If you want prompt relief and perma- nent cure go to k. B. Norton and get a large tin box of Mi-o-na tablets for 50 cents.
 E. B. Norton knows that Mi-o-na is a highly recommended scientific remedy and that Is why he Is ready at all times to return your money if it fails to cure acid stomach, belching of gas, dizziness biliousness, sick headache, foul breath, and all stomach troubles, including the worst kind of indigestion.
 Mi-o-na cures by removing the cause. It builds up the. stomach so fast that in a few days the blood, nerves, muscles, and the entire body receive increased nourishment, which results in a clearer complexion, bright eyes, more energy and hopefulness
