Stage Kobbc-ry.

Galveston, March 28.—A special to the News from San Marcos, Texas, dated March 28, says The Austin stage was robbed in San Marcos bottom, about three miles from town, yesterday evening, by two masked men. The robbers attacked the stage about 4 o'clock, and compelled the driver to quit tbe road and drive into tbe woods, where the passengers, eight in number, were made to give up their money and watches. After robbing the passengers, the robbers proceeded to rille the mail. They permitted one passenger to retain his watch because he claimed that it was a family relic. For some distance on the road slips of while cloth were tied to the bushes, indicating that it might have been a signal to confederates on the stage. The robbers took two of the stage horses, cut the telegraph wires, aud left.

The bill introduced by Senator ^argent, and also by Kepresenative Piper, proposed not only to repeal the legal tender power of the trade dollar, but to authorize the coinage of a new silver dollar and make it a legal tender for, amounts not exceeding twenty dol lars. It was also proposed by their bill to double the legal tender power of all otber silver coin.

HI3 STOKY CONCERNING LITTLE EJIMA. •Schenck gave a circumstantial account of his connection with the Einroa mine to tke committee.

After a few preliminary remarks, Schenck said tbat in October, 1871, he met at Edward's hotel, London, exSenator

the table of William

Washington, just be

fore he Jefu tho United States for London, calling there for the purpose of effecting the promotion of a clerk, the commissioner exhibited some rich silver ore found in .Little

the latter ouKht to become interested in this property, the finest yet brought out. Schenck answered that he had no means to invest, and if ..-he had, he would not go into the matter unless he could considerably

his income by taking

nl¥fii3efe3

add to

a considerable

to a conversation, which in

creased his interest on the subject. He consented to look into the matter, and see whether it was worth his while to in vest,provided he could obtain means. He thought Stewart was exceedingly anxious that h© should have an opportunity to profit in the business. He told him (Schenck) that Park would assist him, and would give him time it be would take 500 shares, or make an investment of souse degree of importance. Schenck wished to know the value of the property. They gave him diagrams of the mine, and sliowed him statements of the working operations sales of ore at London, Liverpool and Swansea, and tbe balance in bank They also told bitn tbey had a report on the mine from Professor Sillimanj showing the value of the mine.

A day

or two after this conversation they showed him Silliman's report, and Schenck finally made up his mind to invest in the mine if Park would let him have tbe money on time, say for a year. Park having many shares, this matter was settled between Park and himself about November

thein back at par. Subsequently, at Park's request, Schenck agreed to a reduction to IK per cent. Schenck had given his note to Park for

1)4

five hundred shares in the open market at

40 and 31

anged with

Bates, and 1,894 pouuds in addition. There was a credit ol 2,500 pounds on the notg which ho bad given to Park, and which note had been returned to him. This amount Schenck did not understand till his final settlement with Park. It seemed that Park had made seme arrangment with Grant lor the payment of the commission to him on the shares, and that Grant gave Park a commission on live bnnored shares held by Schenck, of which Park said Schenck ought to have the benefit ol as they belonged to him. As to the payment of the remaining indebtedness to Park, the latter told bim that he need not trouble himself, as he felt as sale without the security as with it, as he knew that it would be paid. Schenck then related how be paid the remainder of the amount due to Park in stocks, etc. Schenck then alluded to other matters of less importance in connection with the Emma mine, and read a letter from Sir R. Palmer in relerence to the suit, disapproving the statements made against nim, as to Lyon, some ot whose statements he characterizad as clumsy lies. He did not know be had ever seen him. The

New York. He was not sure whether it was at the table or at a subsequent interview that Stewart said something about the purpose of bis visit to London, and informed him that ho and Park were interested in tho property of the Emma mine, and were desirous of putting the stock on the English market, and they were then engaged in negotiations in making this communication to him. Either at the diuner table, or afterward, his attention was directed to what Steward called Little Cottonwood Canon in Utah He represented that whon at tho land office

that

cent a montn. At the time this agreement was made there had been no organization of the company. At the time of its execution there was no suggestion whatever tbat he should havo anything to do with the management of the company. Afterward, however, Park and Stewart thought Schenck ought to be one of the managers or directors of the proposed company. Schenck dissented from this, but it was argued that they wanted somebody sojourning in London to protect their interests. This seemed to be a plausible reason, Wut he still objected, saying he doubted the propriety of his having anything to do with the management while there in his present active ca paclty, unless be could be satisfied there were precedents of the kind. I( this should be done, another condition would have to be complied with. He must know the names of all directors, as he had thus far heard the name of only one person who had been asked or agreed to become a director on tbe third of November the names of

scch persons

were furnished him. He was not acquainted with any of them, but he learned there were among them members of parliament and other gentlemen in high nosition.

Schenck said wh6n he went into the business be did not know there were such persons as Albert Grant, not being acquainted in tbe stock or financial circles. Schenck attended only two meetings of the board on

28th and 30th of Novem

Baker states that the Atlantic & Pacific railroad n9ver bad two bills before Congress. They did, however,

vor the bill changing the name of tbe Indian Territory, but Mr. Thurman was oppf'Sfid to thpm, and

bought the hill from the first to the last. Baker atteuued to Uiis matter himself. Mr. Coffin never having had anything to do with it, and he, Baker, remaining in Washington on this business until the legal complications here brought him home. Baker is very emphatic in denying that Thurman nnver, in any manner, bad any connection with the AtUutic "fe Pacific railroad, and

was ntver eousulted

about

its affairs. The man who started this report, Baker says, is named Woodward. He represented himself, as a newspaper correspondent, procured a pass to Jefferson City, aud that is the only transaction he ever bad with the railroad.
