SEATTI.F, Wash., Nov. —The overland west-hound train on the Northern Pacific railroad was hold up Thursday evening near Hot Springs by three masked men, who robbed nil tht»male passengers in the I'ullmnn sleeper Wadena, six in all. The first, man the (robbers met was K. II. Miller, of

Portland, Ore., who was in the smoking compartment. He was relieved of tlO and a gold watch and then told to march in ahead of the. robbers, which he did. One of the highwaymen went to the extreme end of the car while the other stood guard at the end they entered. All were dressed in dark clothes, overcoats, slouch hats and wore handkerchiefs over their faces. They placed revolvers at the heads of the passengers and commanded them to hold up their hands, l.udlca Not PiMurtwil.

The robbers did not molest the ladies, telling them to keep quiet and no harm would come to them. After robbing everybody in the car anil without going to any of the other cars the robbers pulled the bell cord, giving the proper signals, and when the ear stopped they pulled the hell to start again and then jumped off, fled to the woods, tiring a parting fusillade ns they disappeared. The total amount taken was 51,200 besides the gold watches and jewelry and other valuables.

SHIPPING GOLD TO EUROPE.

Considerable Comment Occasioned by Recent Orders.

NEW YORK, Nov.

20.—While

tiie ex

ports of products of the I'niled States to other countries are at present satisfactory as to bulk, the prices realized, it is claimed, are so far below normal that gold coming this way is not so great in amount a»s has been in some years past the rule at this season of the year. Meanwhile Americans have indulged in luxuries from abroad to an extent that has made ami is making necessary heavy shipments of the yellow metal. The opponents of the silver agitation hold, moreover, that foreign interests, rendered uneasy by the silver agitation here, have been and are lessening the bulk of their values in the United states, and that, too. upon a gold basis. Naturally, the public with speculative! interests are closely watching tho present flurried transactions in gold. Their action is largely contingent upon the movement of gold, and hence the statement of

Wednesday last thai $000,000 in gold had been withdrawn by a banking firm here for shipment has aroused comment and wonder as to what it means. It now appears that La/.ard-Kreres are the customers for whom the Fourth national bank withdrew the $*500,000 in gold Wednesday.

is a smoldering mass of rn ns. Hlackened and crumbling- walls of brick and heaps of ashes are all lhat now remains of the palatial villa which for years has been numbered among Newport's largest and linest residences. The tire also destroyed all the valuable contents of the villa, including furniture, bric-u-brae, wearing apparel and rare and costly articles of every description. The fire broke out about 4:JiO 51. m. Fridaj*, and within two hours the building and contents were totally destroyed.

The house was Jmilt about a dozen or fifteen years ago for P. Lorillard. of New York, and was purchased, with I the extensive grounds, by Mr. Yanderbilt in 1

SSf».

More than $100,000 was

expended in additions and improvements to the building, the value of which was estimated at more than half that sum at the time of sale. It was of irregular shape, about Jiio by 00 feet in size, from one to three stories in height, the lower par! of brick and the upper of wood, with numerous towers and gables. The character of the furniture and decorations may 1)6" judged from the fact that in a single hail wore hung tapestries estimated to be worth S'LO.iJUO or more. Mr. Yanderbilt and family found temporary refuge in the gardener's cottage on the premises and were entertained during the night by hospitable neighbors.

It is estimated that the loss by Urn lire is upward of $300,000. The building and furniture wore heavily insured. The total of the policies is unknown to r. Yanderbilt.
