HnxsBOBo, Texas, Nov. 4. Three
masked men held up the south-bound
"Katy" passenger No. 1 one mile south
of Alvarado last night about 7 o'clock.
They climbed up over the tender and
covering the engineer and fireman
made them stop the train. ' They then
made the porter cut the express car
loose from the passenger cars and made
the engineer pull out on the hill this
side, where he was made to uncouple the
engine and move off a distance. Going
to the express car, they ordered the
messenger out. After he got out they
made him go back into the car and told
him to hand out the money quick. In
stead of doing so, he turned off the
light and shut and fastened the door.
The robbers, who were doubtless nov
ices, were disconcerted by the action of
the messenger. The ; engineer, realiz
ing the situation, pulled the throttle
open and ran into Grandview and
wired Hillsboro. The robbers became
alarmed and fled when the messenger
put out the lights.
Sheriff Bell organized a posse and
sent it with bloodhounds to the scene
of the hold-up, but up to 11:30 they
have not taken the trail. The passen
ger is due here at 8:05, but did not
reach here till 10 o'clock, The above
facts were gleaned from the engineer,
messenger and passengers. The rob
bers are described as boys about 17 to
80 years of age. They did not get any
thing. The officers are scouring the
country, and are confident they will
arrest the robbers..

Lawrence, Kan., Nov. 4. In the
Douglas county district court Judge
Benson rendered a decision in the ap
plication for a release of Mary Stevens
on a writ of habeas corpus, and the ap-
Slication was denied. This means that

Stevens refused to answer questions
before a notary regarding the failure
of her son, Harry L. Stevens, and for
this refusal was put in jail by the
notary. Application for a writ of

two weeks ago this was tried. It was

LILLIAN RUSSELL'S LATEST I
Causes John R. Gentry to Be Assaulted
la Kansas City Hotel.
Kansas Crrr, Ma, Nov. 4. Lillian
Russell, who is stopping at the Midland
hotel, yesterday afternoon received
the following message over the tele
phone: .
'Mr. Mower, of Boston, and J. E.
Gentry are at the Coates House and
would like to have you come over and
drink champagne with them. If you
are too tired they will drive over to
pour hotel."
Miss Russell was furious over the
"insolent" message and handed it to
her brother-in-law, Mr. Fred G. Ross,
who went over to the Coates House
and inquired for the two men. He met
Mr. John R. Gentry of Sedalia, first,
and showed him the message and in
quired if he sent it. The question was
repeated, but before any reply was
given Ross struck Mr. Gentry a light
blow on the side of the head and at
tempted to strike him again, but several
men in the hotel office prevented any
more violence. After some words
passed between the men and Mr. Ross
explained what had caused the fight,
he was released and went in search of
Mr. Mower. He found him in the bil
liard room and choked and shook him
gently sort of a stage shake and
then left the hotel and returned to the
Midland
The affair caused "a decided sensa
tion. John R. Gentry, who was first
assaulted, is one of the best known
horsemen of the country and is known
all over the land as a square man, and
in all his turf career has been singu
larly free from such entanglements.
Mr. Edwin II. Mower, the other "vic
tim'' of Mr. Ross' rage, is a wealthy
man from Boston, where he is trustee
for the debenture holders of the Win
ner company.
Mr. Gentry vigorously denies all
knowledge of the affair. Mr. Mower
did not deny sending the message and
coupling Mr. Gentry's name with it,
but did not want anything said about
it. He left for St. Louis last night.
Mr. Gentry is still in town.
Investigation discloses the fact that
Mr. Mower was introduced to Mr. Gen
try by a regular army officer yesterday
at the Coates. Mower told Mr. Gentry
that he knew Miss Russell very well
and invited Mr. Gentry to meet Miss
Russell. Accordiagly, Mower called
up the Midland, where Miss Russell is
stopping. Upon being told that Mr.
Gentry wanted to see her she said she
did not know him, aild the Coates was
so informed over the telephone. There
upon Mower went to the telephone
and dictated the message to the Mid
land bell boy captain, who sent it up
to Miss RusselL This was about 4
o'clock. , The prima donna was .furious
and sent broadcast for Mr. Ross. The
simple fact is that Mr. Gentry was
taken advantage of by Mower and did
not realize what an impropriety wa
beinar committed in his name.
A Student Defends Himself.
Chillicothe, Mo.,1 Nov. . A shoot
ing affray occurred in this city Sunday
night in which William Roe was
fatally shot by John Shackelford, a
normal school student. Roe and some
other boys were following Shackelford
and a young lady home from church
and tried to separate -them. The boys
tnrew rocks at the couple, and Shackel
ford fired five shots at his assailants,
only one taking effect. He was arrest
ed to-day on a charge of assault with
intent to kill and released on bond.

THE MARKETS.
Kansas Crrr, Mo., Nov. 8. There was not
enough wheat offering on 'change to-day to

Cast a Ballot.

Kinley was about by 7 o'clock this
morning. His brother, Abner, who
arrived last night, cast his vote before
breakfast, and then joined the , family
at the cottage.
At 8 o'clock a telephone from the
McKinley troop asked the ex-governor
if he would go to the polls with the
troop as an escort. , He said he wished
to go as a private citizen, but suggested
that the troop march to the house and
let him review them on the way to the
polls. The invitation was accepted,
and tbjfB line of marchers soon appeared.
First came the young men in white
duck uniforms, duck hats and white
umbrellas. After them came the vet
erans, many of them from the shops
and factories. As Mr. McKinley stepped
down the front walk to the curb, cheers
went up. "3 hree cneers for the next
President!" were added, and then the
marchers moved to the polls.
The Republican nominee started for
the polls at 8:30 o'clock, walking down
Market street, where the voting booth
of Precinct A, First ward, is located.
He was accompanied by Abner Mo-,
Klnley and his nephew, Samuel Saxton.
As Mr. McKinley entered the small
tore in which the booth was located
there was a stir of agitation among
the officials and ,a mild rustle of ap
plause, i He took his place in the line.
Ahead of him was a swarthy-faced
workingman, whose hands showed he
had just laid down his tools. With
some confusion he greeted the nominee
and offered to yield his place, but the
offer was declined.
"William McKinley, 723 North Mar
ket street," called the inspector, jus); as
the clock marked 9. The major stepped
forward and received his ballot. Ho
moved through the inclosnre to the
booths in the rear and stepped into the
first one. Adjusting his eyeglasses, he
scrutinized the ticket carefully, and
for one minute and eighteen seconds he
went over the names. Then, marking
the Republican ticket at the head, in
dicating a straight Regublican vote, he
came from the booth and handed the
ballot to the official in charge of the
box. As he emerged from the place
there was another cheer from those
outside. Then, having exercised his
American privilege, he and his brother
walked down to Tuscarawas street to
the home of bis mother.
MR. BRYAN AT THE POLLS.
Tho Democratic Nominee Swears aTJs
Eligibility and Casta His Ballot.
Lincoln', Neb., Nov. 4. ?Mr. Bryan
rose early to-day at 'the hotel in
Omaha, and after breakfast took the
morning train to Lincoln. ' His voice
was somewhat husky, but bis eye was
bright and his manner cheerful. He
said that he had had a refreshing
sleep and that he felt well. He bought
the morning papers at the hotel news
stand and read them leisurely at the
breakfast table. -
Mr. Bryan was met at the railroad
station at 10 o'clock by an escort of
Bryan home guards, consisting largely
of farmers, who received him with a
shout of welcome as he descended
from the steps of his car, the accom
panying band playing "Home, Sweet
Home. 'I The guard and a miscellan
eous concourse of people followed in
procession as the carriage went through
the streets. The sidewalks were lined
with people and there were many
shouts along the way, Interspersed
quite freely with cries for his opponent.
Wher. Mr. Bryan reached his resi
dence to-day, a large number of his
neighbors and friends were assembled
in front of the house, and as the pro
cession drew up the Bryan home guard
formed a line reaching from the street
to his door. The band started the air
which the nominee has asked to be the
campaign air, "Home, Sweet Home,"
and when at last he reached the house
a shout went up from ov thousand
throats. They called d vu for a
speech, and turning to W-ut' his voice
shaking with emotion, he spoke a few
words.
Mr. Bryan drove to the city hall at
J 0:30 o'clock to secure a certificate of
citizenship on account of his failure to
register beforehand. He was required
to take an oath at this place, giving
the number of his residence and declar
ing that he had lived in the state for
more than a year, in the county of
Lancaster for more than four months
and in the Fifth ward for more than
ten days; that he was a qualified voter
and that his failure to register was
due to his absence from the state. He
then proceeded to the engine house in
Precinct A of the Fifth ward, where he
was gi en a ballot, retired to his booth
and cast his ballot in his order, while
all present removed their hats.
"Sure you've got the right electors?"
queried one of the judges as the big
ballot was placed in the box and the
name of "W. J. Bryan" was an
nounced. '
"I'll take the chances on that," re
sponded the Presidential candidate.
The casting of the ballot was re
ceived with applause, and, after shak
ing hands with the election official
nearest him, Mr. Bryan wedged his
way out through the crowd, dodging
the engine horses and again taking his
seat in his carriage he was driven U
his home.

and clubs, marched through the city
and defied the law. The sheriff and
city . authorities, finding themselves
unable to cope with the mob, called

ance. This action had the effect of

Fire During a Political Belly.
Sterling, Kan., Nov. 4. While
meetings were in progress in separate
halls by Republicans and fusionists fire
alarms were sounded, calling the de
partment to the house of T. F. Coouey,
which was destroyed. Panics were
averted in both halls only by cool men
calling out that the alarm was a
scheme of opponents to break up the
meetings. Not until the meetings
closed did the audiences learn that the
alarm was genuine.
Voting by Machinery.
Hudson, Mich., Nov. 4. The Abbot
voting machine is being used in the
election to-day, and the result here
will be known sooner than in any
other part of the country. The ma
chine was legalized by the ' last Michi
gan legislature, and the test it was put
to in the Second ward at the spring
elections was in every degree satisfac
tory. The machine is simple in opera
tion and as the different parties are
designated by color as well as in type,
the most ignorant voters find little
trouble in using it. Each vote is reg
istered as cast, and the total is known
as soon as the polls close. '

V. Stephens' right eye has become ul
cerated, as was his left a month ago;

Stephens is also ill. Both will go to
Hot Springs, Ark., for a short stay as
soon as practicable. ,
