In Bolivia, one Of the highest inhab

the capital, being 10000 feet above the
sea level-much use is made of that
graceful and invaluable pack animal
the llama, which will travel farther

pounds. The llama In some respects
resembles the camel, kneeling in camel

THE ROBBERY WAS COMMITTED
BY MEN OF SKILL AND
DARING.

New Westminster, B. c., Sept. 16.-
1t is the theory of the police of Van
couver and New Westminster that
the three robbers who stole $685.
from the New Westminster branch
of the Bank of Montreal are in hid
ing in Vancouver. waiting for a
chance to get away with their booty.
One hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars of the paper money stolen is in
new S. and $40 bills Of the Bank Of
Montreal and the numbers of every
bill stolen is posted in every bank in
Canada and on the American border.
Evidence is accommodating to show the
skill with which the job was done
The explosives, 1t has been found, were
set off by electricity, the wires hav-
ing been found attached to the
handle of the safe and, despite the
fact that five or six charges were
necessary, SO carefully had the work
been done that the residents in the
Lavery block adjoining the bank did
not hear the slightest sound.
The Bank of Montreal offered a re-
ward today of $4,000 for the capture
and conviction of one or more of the
robbers. The bank will also allow
to the finder bonus of five per cent
of any money that may be recovered
through any arrest made.

ARBITRATE DIFFERENCES
CAUSES A WALk-oUT.

Scranton, Pa, Sept. 16.-Twelve
hundred and fifty foremen and sec
ton hands on the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna & Western railroad have been
ordered by A. B. Lowe, president of
the maintenance of way employees
union, to strike at 6 o'clock tonight.
The strike was authorized by the
national officers of the trackmen's
union and followed the refusal of the
company to arbitrate differences with
the men.
The section men had asked for
an increase in wages, which was re-
fused. Subsequently it is said, M. G.
Foley, a section foreman and chair
man of the grievance committee, was
dismissed. The section men asserted
that he had been discharged because
of his activity in the agitation for
increased wages and demanded his
reinstatement. This, the men say,
also was refused and the union men
suggested arbitration. President
Truesdale of the company declined to
arbitrate and the strike today was
the result.
The strike order takes in the en-
tire Lackawanna system between Ho
boken, N. j., and Buffalo.

WHITE HOPE" BADLY BEATEN
FIGHT FANS SAY FLYNN'S VIC
TORY THE MOST COMPLETE
IN HISTORY.
FIREMAN WON ON DECISION
OkLAHOMAN WAS ON THE DE-
FENsIvE IN SPITE OF HIS
SUPERIOR WEIGHT. -

New York, Sept 16.-The Morris.
Flynn fight in Madison Square Gar
den last night, which resulted in de-
feat for the Oklahoma White Hope"
proves to have been a disastrous
venture for the New York promoters,
according to figures published here
today The high prices charged for
seats-$2 to $20-kept crowd down
to about 5000 persons, and most OF
these were in the cheaper sections.
Boxing fans estimated the gate at
$4,000. Out of that total the pro-
moters were under contract to give
Morris $4,000 and Flynn $1,000, leav-
ing the club apparently with a deficit
OF $4,000 aside from the expense of
staging the bout
1t is declared that at least 300 fight
fans were robbed by pickpockets dur
ing the evening. An unusual Incl
dent in connection with the battle
was the presence in box of three
young women attired in mems cloth
ing.
Fight fans agreed today that the |
defeat of Morris was the most COM
plete ever seen here. No pugilist of |
modern times ever took such a ham,
mering as did Morris. He was un-
able to block or side step Flynn's
wallops and the cnly protection he
could provide for himself was by
throwing his weight upon his oppon-
ent when he clinched. He bled pro-
fusely and was in such distress in
the last few rounds that ringside
spectators begged him to quit, but
the big engineer did not know the
meaning of that word. Flynn es-
capped without any serious bruises.

Big GOLD STRIKE
in new MEXICO
"DlAMoNDFlELD" JACK DAVIS
SAYS NEW STATE WILL HAVE
BIG MINING CAMP.

Jack Davis, rough and ready min
ing man, one of the discoverers of
the famous gold strike at Goldfield,
New, and founder of the city of Dia-
mondfiield." in that state. has struck
it rich in New Mexico and expects to
make the new state loom up big on
the mining map of the country. Mr..
Davis was here today for brief visit
with his old friend, William aHrper,
with whom he became acquainted
several years ago in Goldfield. He is
en- route to the Pacific coast where
he expects to consummate some i'm
partant busines deals and interest
prominent men in his new discovery.
The camp which Mr.. Davis ex-
poets to become another Cripple
Creek is located on the townsite of
the village of F'lourine, where new
postoffice has just been established
by the government. The camp is To-
Gated 72 miles south of Magdalena
and 6S miles west of Engle. Work
has been in progress there about a
year, In that time better showing
has been made than in Goldfield or
Cripple Creek at the same stage of
development. The ore is rich in val
ues and is of a tellurium forma-
tion, which is that acknowledged by
experts as containing the greatest
quantities of gold
Eleven hundred feet of develop
ment work has been done on the
properties. This includes two tun-
nels which pierce the mountain at a
depth of several hundred feet One
of these tunnels has been driven in
54S feet, while the other is $50 feet in
length. over half million dollars
worth of ore has been blocked off
and will be removed as soon as the
proper facilities are provided. These
include mill and cyanide plant as
we'll as the most modern machinery
for mining.
A company to be known as the
Lucky Lion Gold Mining company is
to be organized with capitalization
of $1,000,000. At the head of this
company is l. M. Yost of Kansas
City, who is heavily interested in
the Lucky Tiger mine in Old Mexico.
The company expects, to utilize the
leasing system of working its mines
which will be several in number.
This has been found to be satisfac-
tory in other gold mining districts.
Mr.. Davis, has been mining in
Mexico recently but left that country
when the rebellion broke out. He
visited the Porcupine mining district
in Canada. He has been interested
in the Flourine district about u
months.
Mr.. Davis has had an interesting
life. In Goldfeld and other Nevada
gold camps he was a familiar figure
for several years. He is a man who
does not pin his faith on propositions
that look like dead ones" He says
the Flourine district looks exceed
ingly live.
