FRIDAY, AUGUST 2, 1901.

MR. CAKNEGIE admits that he has no appetite, and under the circumstances he is fully justified in refusing to become a candidate for mayor of Greater New York.

COIN HARVEY would not have the courage to run for congressman elsewhere than in a state like Arkansas, which ha3 a Democratic majority of 40,000 to begin with. CKo&uK EZ2

ESTIMATES of the armed Boers remaining in the field average about fifteen thousand. In that case it takes fifteen British soldiers to look after one Boer, and even then the results are often unsatisfactory to Lord Kitchener.

THE Virginia constitutional convention declined to invite Col. Bryan to de liver an address before it. Evidently the delegates took the view that they had left nothing undone in the way oi Democratic advantage to wh eh tfce colonel could call their attention.

A. SWINDLER in New York made tbic confession: "If the postott ce department would let me alone I would have to hire a cart to carry my money ladet mail. Let me promise 56 per cent on a fake and I can get rich." The manj persons who are anxious to be soorj parted from their money are undei great obligations to Uccle Sam's protective postal rules. S

THE island of Samar seems to fca^ been pretty well pacified, and anothei step has been taken toward the com plete restoration of order in the Philip pines. The archipelago covers a great deal of ground, and there are man* hundreds of separate islands in it. Every few days word comes of an in surgent surrender in a new place. Ii is evident in any case that the rebellion is practically ended.

THE inhabitants of Hawaii are justly entitled to such measure of If government as they show they can wisely use, but congress cannot afford to abdicate its complete ultimate authority, partic ularly in view of their demonstrated need of guardianship. A peoi le who cannot manage a ten itorial government properly cannot be trusted to help govern the nation as rulers of a state or part of a state.

JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN recently said in a speech in London that sentiment in Canada in favor of annexation with the United States was stronger thirty years ago than it is now. Perhaps he is mistaken on this point. Business relations between this country and the dominion are far more intimate than they were in 1870, and if anything should happen to disturb them seriously a movement for annexation might develop rapidly.

THE pessimism which is reported in business circles in Germany is hardly to be wondered at. For the past three or four years there has been a large expansion in general indu»try aiid tri.de in the empire, but the turn seems to have come, and the recent failures ana suspensions have frightened many "persons, and have produced the condition familiar in all countries when great trade activity gives place to torpor. The United States experienced this felling in an acute degree iu 18lJ.'J and for a few years afterward, but since 1897 this country has been on the up-hill in a business way. The United States is having a very pronounced stage of liepublican prosperity at the present time, and it promises to stay with us for several years yet.

NOTABLE words are those of Captain E. C. McDowell, a former Confederate soldier and a prominent Tennesseeau. He fought in youth for the lost cause, and after the war practiced law with success at Columbia, Tc-nn. lie became a leading member of the southern bar and took a prominent part on the Democratic side of politics in speeches, phamplets and other writings. Ho organized and presided over the first Scotch-Irish congress of America.

The veteran southern Democrat now proposes to quit dreaming. He has had ample time for reflection, the widest opportunity for observation. As a result of reflection^ and observation he now plainly declares: 1 propose to quit dreaming, and in the future give my voice and vote to an honest administration of a practical government. The Republican party is eminently practical. If our tariff and currency laws need improvement, the epublican party can give those reforms. It is not tied, by hide-bound theories that cannot be adapted to clanged conditions.

Masked Men Hold Lip B. & 0. Train Near Calumet, Iiid.

MANY SHOTS ARE FIRED

Engineer and Fireman Forced I'oint of Pistols to Uncouple Cars.

at

Becoming Frightened the Robbers VanisFi Without .Securing Bootv.

Chicago, Aug. 1.—The Baltimore and Ohio passenger train l'rom the east, due to arrive iu Chicago at 9 o'clock last night, was hem up by live maskct in en at 8 o'clock between Edgemoro nnd Grand Calumet Heights. Indian 81 miles our. l'rom Chicago. One of the mail ears, which contained no money, was dynamited and wrecked.

Most of the trainmen were shot at. and had narrow escapes l'rom the Iul lets. No person was injured either by the dynamite or firearms. The place where the robbery occurred is a lonely district in which lew people live and houses are far between. No better place for train robfcery could be desired by the robbers. The train was running at a high rate or speed as it passed Calumet Heights, aud Immediately after passing out of sight of the station Engineer J. AV. Collins saw directly in front of his engine a large fire on which some rails had been placed. lie slowed down, and as he did so three men wearing masks over their faces jumped into the cab and covered Collins and his fireman. James Whipple, with revolvers.

Just before climbing into the cab, the three men commenced to fire with their revolvers in order to frighten away all assistance. The shots produced the liveliest kind of a panic in the sleeping cars, where the passengers made every effort to hide their money and valuables before the robbers could get at them. No attempt was made, however, to rob any of the passengers. The fusilade had the effect of making them keep inside the cars.

After mounting Into the cab of the engine, the robbers, covering the engineer aud fireman with their revolvers, made them step down and go back the length of two cars. They ordered the men to uncouple the first two cars, which was done. They then hustled the two trainmen back into the cab, and, still keeping the engineer covered with revolvers, directed him to pull up some distance from the rest of the train. Collins ran up 200 feet and was tlien directed to stop. He did so. and while one of the men remained to guard him, the others jumped off and, hurling dynamite at the door of the car which they judged to be the express car, burst open the door. Hastily climbing in to get at the safe, they were astonished to find they had broken into a mail car. They threatened the fireman with death for not telling them the cars which he had uncoupled were not express cars, and ordered him to return at once and uncouple the next car behind the baggage cars. Climbing once more into his cab, Collins backed his engine down, coupled onto the third car, which the fireman was made to uncouple at the rear end, and, still with the muzzle of the revolver at his head, Collins was ordered to run down the track as before. He drew away from the balance of the train about the same distance as on the first occasion, and the robbers, still leaving him under the charge ol' one of their number, made for this car. When they reached it they found, to ilieir great wrath, that they hail attacked another mail car and that it contained no money. The trniu had been delayed now fully 80 minutes, aud, evidently fearing thai If they delayed any longer help would be coming to tne train crew, the robbers gave Sp their attempt to rob the train, and, jumping down, ran into a thicket of scrub oaks at the side of the track and disappeared. The train was hastily made up aud came on to Chicago, arriving here somewhat late, a stop having been made at Whiting to report the robbery. Officers were at once sent after the robbers, and within an hour after the robbery a large posse was on their trail.

F. A. Applegate of Newark, O., was the express messenger and was alone in his car. He had no idea that: a robbery was being attempted until he heard the shooting on the outside. He then seized a ritle and climbing on to the top of the safe, awaited developments, determined to make the best fight iu his power. He was not molested in any way, however. Local express officers refused to say how much money there was in the car. It Is estimated that. $50.000 was stored. in the express car, and- it is believed the robbers knew of the large amount of money and valuables aboard.

New York, Aug. 1.—A dispatch from Colon, Colombia, says that on Friday night the revolutionists attacked the towns of Bohic, Gatum and Paraiso, took the town officials prisoners and seized the public funds.

Strike Ivvfrnitinir lo Seattle.. Seattle, Wash.. Aug. 1.—According to a rumor in organized labor circles, a general strike of all unions, which will be as hurtful to business here as in San Francisco, is imminent in Seattle.

Volley of Blank (•art,riii«e at tlio Governor's Stall'. Indianapolis, Aug. 1.—It is now asserted in state military circles that the reason why Major Schanz resigned from the command of the artillery battalion was that he gave the artillery an order that is not to be found in the book of tactics. He ordered a half-wheel and tin limber to fire the governor's salute. The consequence was that: the artillery fired right toward the infantry companies and governor's staff. If tlie guns had been fixed in the old-fashioned way they would have filled the infantry full oi wadding.

General McKee, commander of the national guard, discovered the error at once and reprimanded Maj. Schanz. Governor Durbin did not know until Informed, •if the narrow escape of his staff.
