Washinoton, Oct. 18.—The net of city, government and Pinkerton detectives which has been spread over Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia since last Saturday in an effort to apprehend the criminals who held up and sacked the express car ut Aquia creek Friday last has finally drawn into its meshes thrw men whom tlie officials are confident were concerned in the robbery. One man who answers the description :>f one of those want) d was arrested at CuinlxTlund, Md. His inability to give an account of himself and other circumstances go to make a strong case. He gives the name of C. J. Searcoy of Fort Dodge, Kan. Another man was arrested at Cherry Run yesterday and was quite a desperate character, lie held up a untidier of men with a 44-caliber revolver, hut was finally arrested. He answers the description of another man implicated. The third is said to be at Berkeley Springs, though the location of the last two men is being kept quiet by the authorities. The expre -s officials and detectives are delighted at tho captures aud now feel sure that Hie apprehension of the remainder of the gang will lie accomplished soon. CUM DFKI.A.N D < ACTIVE. II© Carrie* Greenback* With Small Hob* Tltroiigb Tbcm. Cumberland, Md., Oct. 18.—No further doubt can possibly exist that one of the Aquia creek train robbers has been caught in this city. A web of circumstances and convicting evidence has been woven about the prisoner, who gives the name of C. J. Seareey. By train from Washington yesterday a party of Pinkerton detectives arrived, including Captain F. H. Hinde, who had just returned from the scene of the robbery. Ho was accompanied by Crntchfield, the messenger in charge of car at the time of the holdup. In the prisoner’s possession was $1,061.52 in cash, of which $M7 was in greenbacks. When Mr. Hinde saw tho roll of greenbacks he held each up to the light and examined it closely, declaring there was no further doubt that the prisoner was one of the robbers. He showed that every one of the notes had small perforations. In every package of money shipped by the Adams Express company the notes hiv stitched together, leaving when separated tiny holes which a person cannot fail to discover npou examination. Every note contained these holes in the places where they would be made by the person making up the money package. Other KvIiIpikshi «if Dili It. The prisoner was noticed sulking about the B. and O. depot, and when Officer Beck of this city started for him the man started to run. He was soon overtaken. In addition to the money found ou his person one silver watch and one gold one, a lot of pawn tickets and three silver pocketbooks were found. A fine Colt’s navy revolver was on his person. There were 43 cartridges in his pocket and a memorandum book showing where the plunder had been divided between the men. lu his sachel were found old muddy shoos, a slouch hat and wearing apparel that looked as if it might have been used as a disguise. The man is rather large and weighs at least 160 pounds. He is six feet tall, smooth face and dresses neatly. It was discovered h> the officials that he had arrived in this city some hours before and had got away with several hundred dollars in a gambling house. Where the TreuHtire 1* Hidden. Mr. Hildt closely examined a memorandum book which Seareey had in his pocket. Even the cleverest and most adroit thieves leave loopholes for detection. In this book was a row of figures in which $2,500 had been divided by two, besides a quantity of other valuable information which the authorities refuse to give out. The hook contained a diagram which is believed to show where the greater part of the money stolen has b“i'ii hidden, and now the greatest endeavor of the detectives will be to unearth the hiding place of the

treasure.

This afternoon the express company will be obliged to show the value of its case against Seareey, because he hits engaged the services of a smart lawyer and applied for a writ of habeas corpus. Suicided on Hi* Fir*t Wife’* Grave* Baltimore, Oct. 18.—Eugene Schaweeker, 31 years of age, a wholesale grocer and liquor merchant of Cincinnati, committed suicide yesterday at Mount Carmel cemetery, on the grave of his first wife, by shooting himself through the heart. Upon the body was a letter to his second wife, Mrs. Kate Schawocker of Cincinnati, begging for-

DIPLOMATIC DISAGREEMENT. ilarrlNon's Retaliatory DmclRtnatlon Against Colombia Now Annulled, Wabhincton, Oct. 18.—A sharp diplomatic d'sagrccmeut between the United States of Colombia and tho Unit 'd States of America lias just U'cii brought to a close. The difference grew out of and has existed ever since Ihajsideut Humsou in March, 1S!I2, issued a retaliatory proclamation against Colombia, under the provisions of the McKinley iu't, because of the latter's refusal to negotiate a reciprocity treaty with the United States, as had been done by the other Central and Southern American countries. Sonor Hurtado, the Colombian minister, protested against the proclam itlon, and after a warm correspondence with Secretaries Blaine and John \V. Foster left Washington and has return! d hut once since, that occasion Ix'ing to call on Secretary (ire-ham. For two years ColomL. i’s protests have been before the stat■' deo irtment. Now, however, the new Amer.'an tariff does away with reciprocity and retaliation, so that the retaliatory proclamation against Colombia is annulled. Asa.' suit the strained relations lad ween tho countries are ended, and it is thought Senor Hur'.ulo will again take up his residence in Washington.

Norgard of Washington, United States veterinary inspector, has been visiting the ranches of southwest Texas during the past few weeks making investigations in regard to the Texas fever among cattle, with a view of locating it and finding a remedy, thereby raising the quarantine against Texas cattle and opening the markets to them at all seasons of the year. The doctor has been at work on this matter for some time and feels that he has been in a large measure successful. He has become satisfied that the fever is disseminated through the ticks that Texas cattle carry out and scatter along the route they may take. The “ffort now being made is to fix a dip that will kill ticks and not injure the stock. The doctor has secured a supply of treks on which to experiment. The purpose is that when the proper dip is secured dipping vats will be established at the shipping points, and the cattle will be put immediately into disinfected cars aud thus do away with the Texas fever.
