LOADED WITH MONEY CAPTURE OF A SUPPOSED TRAIN ROBBER AT CINCINNATI. Thought to Be a Member of the Gang: That Held Up the Special In Vlrginln-l.UOO Recovered. CINCINNATI. Oct. 18. The police received word this afternoon that a stranger v"as being held on suspicion at Chester Park. The man, in attempting to get on a train at that station, slipped and broke his leg. He acted suspiciously In refusing to go to a hospital or to receive medical attention. It v.-as found that he had a large sum of money on his person. 1c was then suspected he was one of the Virginia express robbers. To-night it is learned his name Is Charles Augustus Morganfield, and it is believed he belongs to the Aqula gang, although he makes no confession. Twelve hundred dollars was recovered from him, $150 being In his hat and other amounts in his clothing, boots and satchel. He wore a false truss full of money. The detectives have questioned MorganHeld very closely. He claims to be a gambler without any home, and that he got his money by recent games While he was lying on the stretcher a black stiff hat which he had been wearing fell on the floor and was carelessly kicked around. Detective White picked It up and examined It, removing the lining. Under the band was a well-worn $100 bill and a $50 bill. The $100 bill was of the Bank of Commerce, of Baltimore, serial number ASC2777 and 1209. The $o0 bill was of the State National Bank of Camden, N. J., serial number A0430 and 4201. Detective McDermott asked the injured man where hi3 vest was, but Morganfield insisted that he had no vest McDermott rolled him over and found hi3 vest beneath. In the pockets was a large roll of ten and twenty-dollar bills. Attached to his undershirt was a rag strapped between his legs, and when this was torn open a big roll of money was found,- which, when counted, was found to amount to $7G0. Dr. Castle made an examination of his injuries and gave as his opinion that the Injured leg would have to be amputated, as the bones were splintered In several places. When the accident occurred Morganfield had dragged with him a small canvass 'telescope" valise, which was brought to police headquarters and there examined. In It was found a coarse striped' shirt. When the shirt was thrown open a big pile of silver coin rolled out with several gold pieces. The money was in small coin and there were two gold eagles, the whole amounting to $110.71. The express company's detectives yesterday were sent after two suspects at Parkersburg. The description given of one of the suspects fits that of Morganfield. He wore a dark suit, percale shirt, weighed about 173 pounds and was six feet tall the description of Morganrteld. In addition he also carried a valise just such a one as Morganfield had and a brown hat. A similar hat was found In the valise. The tall man, or the one who answers Morganlleld's description, purchased a ticket at Cumberland, Md., to Cincinnati, the number of which was PjB. His companion was a smooth-faced man. The express company's agents also telegraphed that they .had changed suits twice during the time they were under surveillance. As If to complete the chain of identification, a box of quinine capsules was found on Morganfield which bore the stamp of "L. Leferre, druggist, No. Co Baltimore street, Cumberland," showing almost conclusively that Morganfield had been there. The box was new and nearly full of capsules. May Be the Wrong Mnn.

CHINA .WANTS PEACE DOCS NOT FEAR DEFEAT, HUT WISHES TO AVOID A LO.NG AVAIL Unconfirmed Rumor that a Great Bat tle Has Been Fought XortU of the Ynlu River. LONDON, Oct. 18. The correspondent of the Times at Tlen-Tsln says that China de sires peace, because, though aware of her immense reserves of strength, she would willingly avoid the sacrifices, risks and expense of bringing them into action. She will, however, faca a long war resolutely and will rallyisuch forces as will render a Japanese conquest impossible, though this effort may exhaust both sides. It Is re ported that China is raising an internal 7 per cent, loan of 20, 000, 000 pounds, sterling. It Is still doubtful whether the Japanese have landed anywhere in China. Another dispatch says that Wei Hal Wei is being hurriedly strengthened. The troops in. the forts theri fear a sudden Japanese naval descent. Reports have been received! of a serious rebellion In Foo Chow. A dispatch received at Tien-Tsin. from Port Arthur, dated Tuesday last, states that the Japanese have abandoned Thornton Haven and have proceeded to the Ping Yang inlet, which they are now said to be strongly fortifying. It Is reported in native circles at Tien-Tsin that a great battle has been fought between the Chinese and Japanese forces, north of the Yalu river. Tne engagement is said to have taken place on Monday last, Oct. 15. No details are obtainable. The Chinese au thorities claim not to have any knowledge of such battle having been fought. Britain' Work lift n Peacemaker. LONDON, Oct. lfc-The Daily News prominently announces, In support of its denial that the recent Cabinet council was called to consider a proposal for concerted action by the powers to Impose peace on China and Japan, that the news that China wa3 prepared to negotiate for peace came a day or two after the Cabinet meeting. The government, thereupon, made over tures to the Dowers with n ing a joint representation to Jnmn on tii basis indicated as acceptable by China. At the same time Japan was asked whether these terms were aecenfahle trw hp a. I'usis oi negotiations. ar.e governmen h was moveu to tnese stens n- n canta rf the great importance to Europe of the iiiuiiuainance or internal order in China. The result of these tentative overtures have not yet been fully manifested. Japan has not replied definitely nor has she rejected the proposal. There is room for hope that the SUirsrested basis rmiv nrove acceptable to both combatants. A majority of the powers are in thorough accord with r-ngaana as to tne course to be pursued. There is reason to hope that the other powers will also accept. It should be need less iu auu mat it is purejy uipiomauc intervention made in the friendliest spirit to both China and Japan.

Dli. COSKLLN UfiTUKXS Aiid Tells a Remarkable Story of Abduction by Negroes. OASSOPOUS, Mich., Oct. 18.-Dr. A. B. Conklln returned home to-night. He says he was kidnaped the night of Sept. 2 by two negroes and driven all night to the house of some colored people, where he was kept In confinement one week and then taken to so:a city unknown to him and turned over to two white men. After this he was carted around by night and confined In buildings by day, always under guard. His captors always wore masks, and he would be unable to recognize them. He was released Tuesday night and walked until he reached a house, which he found was a few miles from Cincinnati. He has no clew to the perpetrators and Is unable to account for his abduction, unless it is because he would have been an Important witness for the prosecution in the trial of Dr. Anderson at Traverse City, who has been acquitted of the charge of criminal practice. MISSIOXAIUES IX C1IIXA. In Times of Tumult They Are No Safer than Three Hundred Years Afro. New York Tribune. The missionary in China Is always in bad case in time of war or civil commotion, and his position now is less favorable than that of his predecessors three and a half centuries ago. They foliowed the return of Jenghls Khan's western wars of invasion, and during the continuance of his dynasty were pretty well treated and their work on the whole encouraged. Carpinl and William of Rubruk, Franciscan 1 irs. visited the country as early as 12.VJ. a.:J both have left records of it which are yet extant, describing the habits and social customs of the people. Fifty years jater came Friar John, of Monte Corrina. also a Franciscan, and after much obscure propagandist labor among these interesting pagans obtained a following and was appointed by Pope Benedict XII Archbishop of Cambalue known to later gazetteers as Peking. Afterward, as the faith spread, numbers of suffragan bishops and prlest3 of his own order were sent out, and missions were established all over the country. They were favored and protected bv the lTPat trmc who succeeded Jenghls. Kublal among ninii. wru oi me p.easure ao:ne or .Xanadu as well as many others; but with the downfall of the line of Jenghls the old national hostility to foreigners revived, the work of the missionaries was blotted out, and only resumed after the accession nf tha UinnVm Emperor two centuries later. This tlme it was tne Jesuits ana tne Dominicans who came, and they have maintained a footing in the country with varvimr fnrtna favor since:" their power and influence being greatest in tne eany period of their occu pancy mere, ane policy or the government is to extend protection to all missionaries, but they are not always safe from local outbreaks of fanaticism. It was the advice of L.I Hunc Chan? that thv bs.-mo.i aa inconspicuous as iK)ssible during the preseat tr.iuoies. ana mere is no doubt that it was sagacious counsel. FATHER IvXHIBP'S CURE. The Queer Little Town In Which He Meet IIIn Intlentn. Maud Howe Elliott, in Boston Transcript. The worker of the miracles is Sebastian Kneipp, the parish priest of Woerishofen, a peasant by birth, an ecclesiastic by early training and a physician by nature. From his autobiography 1 learned that Kneipp was a sickly youth, whose physical weakness seemed an insuperable obstacle to the profession he wished to follow. One day ne cnancea upon a utile oia rooK which contained the principles of the water cure. As his physician had failed to help him after long and devoted care, the young student detcrmlntd to try and cure himself by the methods described in the treatise on hydropathy. In this he was successful. He says in speaking of this time: "1 grew continually stronger, became a priest and have lived as such for over forty years. Being a priest, the salvation of Immortal souls Is the first object fAe which 1 wish to livt) and di. Daring

the last forty years, however, the care of mortal bodies has absorbed a considerably portion of my time and strength. Thl work I have never sought after; on tha contrary, every person - coming to me I naturally a burden. He who has been la want and misery himself knows how to symoathize with the want and misery of his neighbors." It was among his poor peasant neighbors that this good physician began his work Gradually his fame as a healer cf men spread amon? the peasantry of the neighboring village, who came from far ana near to ask for his care and advice. Gradually and little by little people of a hthef grade came to Father Kneipp and ask?i to be healed. About five years ago tho Kneipp cur" began to be talked about by the higher classes In Germany and France, and to-day Weerishofen has becom? a veritable Mecca among Invall Is and healthseekers. Every royal family in Kurop seems to have been represented here by some of Its members, while dukes anl duchesses, princes and princesses, counts and barons are too common to be notice I at Woerlshofen. The simple, commoneuse theories of Kneipp. however, have so Mr kept this tlnv Bavarian hamlet tha most perfectly arid entirely democratic place I have ever seen. I-rlst and noble, peasant and bourgeois, rich Americans and exclusive Britons, meet here on a basis of absolute equality. Everybody here is in grim earnest, either to cet well or to become hardened to a ruder, healthier mod of life than that they have already known. Nothing short of this fixed determination would, I think, keep any civilized person In so uncivilized a place. The hotels are abominable,' the food simple, the service Indescribably bad. There Is no casino, no club, or any place of metlnsr whatsoever, and this is all as Father Kneipp would have It. My room is a fmill and melancholy celi, but It is flooded with sunlight, the greatest of all luxuries. "If you had a pleasant room, with easy chairs, you would etay indoors," ' says Kneinp, an l at Woerlshofen rooms are only places to sleep and dres3 In. The only salon Is tha bare, grim dining-room, with a window leading Into the kitchen; here when the guests have dined the waiters have their dinner, drink their beer, smoke their pipes. The result is Just what Kneipp wishespeople live out of doors In the balmy plna woods which surround the village on every side. The coffee and tea are so bad thnt nobody drinks them, consequently we all take a great deal of the delicious milk. The butter is fit for a king's table, and tha honey Is of the sort the queen eats with her bread In the parlor. The bread Is excellent, and It Is possible to get good beefsteak, roast chicken and grapes, which almost console me for the firs of Italy, which we left In tbA height of their second and bst season. With this limited bill of fare one must be content. "It Is more than poor people can afford." pays Kneipp. "and you rich people have eaten too much all your lives." Everybody Is rich at Wocrishof-?n who does not earn his living by manual la-

'bor. We are In the best hotel (which Is the worst I have ever seen), and consequently the company here Is rather aristocratic. Many cf the people have titles, but it sometimes happens that one hears nothing about their rank till they leave. Trouble from Indornlnjr. Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph. "Henry!" "Yes, your Excellency?" "I suppose you have kept track of affairs In the State of New York?" "Yes, your Excellency; and I perceive a strong wish among Senator Hill's frlenda that you should indorse his candidacy." "Henry, a great many men have brought much disaster upn themselves by Indorsing for others. Now let me tell you how many fish I caught to-day." Fatal CronMnjr Accident. LOUISVILLE, Ky.. Oct. lS.-To-n!ght about 7 o'clock, at the Seventh-street railroad crosslng.a switch engine on the Louisville & Nashville railroad ran down a wagon containing Thomas J. Sullivan, his two soni and his daughter. The wagon was smashed to pieces and Sullivan and one of the boys were so badly injured that they will probably die. The other boy and the girl escaped with slight Injuries. The Last Ilenort. Detroit Tribune. The Prime Minister of Japan has Interdicted "all Interference of the ladles in the court in politics," and there is nothing for the latter to do but to fall in line with th retaliatory policy inaugurated at Topeka. Kan., and wear bloomers until Justice la done them. Use for Smokeless Chimney. New York Tribune. The smokeless chimneys of every factory and forge forced into idleness by the bill of sale will serve as exclamation points to punctuate the people's angry November declaration of distrust and contempt against Democratic treachery and dishonor. Velcraim AMI I Vote. Syracuse (N. Y.) Post. At every congressional election in the country the veterans will cast tlieir votes stamped with the indignation of an honest soldier, and the next Congress will Fhcw what the Nation thirks of Democratic treatment of needy pensioners.

It is not to be Inferred because the income tax superintendent receives nearly hilf of the money appropriated for the collection of the tax that he will personally do nearly one-half of the work. Must llnve the Rlfrht of Way. Philadelphia North American. The Democratic freight will 'have to be switched off to let the Republican express go through. If not. It will go right through, anyhow. The express has the right of way. Benefits Have Jnit Ileguiv. Philadelphia North American. "Come on," says 1 1 III, "to victory com on!" Come off. Harrison's tour is ended, but the benefits of It have Just b-gun. The raising of horses, while not as profitable now as a few yean ago, still makes fair returns for time and capital Investel.
