Trance Mutt Kxjiort Wtirnt. WASHINGTON , Aug. 13. France pr.iutic.illy has completed the harvest ing of her wheat at about the time when It usually begins , and it is no' longer doubtful that there will be a' very serious shortage. This informa tion is conveyed to the state depart ment in a roiKirt from Consul General Skinner at Marseilles It is the lirra belief in some quarters , say * the con sul general , that France will have to become again an importing nation of this commodity and the country \\ill have to look abroad during the coming year for about Hfty million bushels. About twenty million bushels of soft wheat to make up this shun ago is ex pected to come from the 1'ir'ed ' States provided prices keep slightlj under oren on ; v par with those of Ituisian wheat.

" o'clock thin morning by live masked - j ed men The express car was blown open , tin ; Hufo wrecked and the mall ' Hacks rilled. All the passengers were rohlied or their money. Cani'y , ihu place where the robbery occured , IK a sidetrack thirty-nine miles north of Dcrilson. It IK in the ( Jhoctaw nation of the Indian terri tory , and the population surrounding UieKUitloti Is only 125. The train does nut Htop at Caucy except on Hlg- nal , and the proper signal was given. The engineer whistled his reply to the slk'nal , and the train slowed down for the stop. Instead of the hurried signal to go ahead , tin ; engineer and llrctnan were confronted by two men with faces veiled In black netting. About the same time the express messenger and mall clerk were communicated with through closed doors of their car. Three of the robbers shot wildly and then the call went to the messenger and clerk ; "Open up , here , open up , and don't be too slow about It " TltltlSATKN TO I1I.OW Ul' CAIt. When there was no reply from with in the robbers again called out ; "Open the door or we will blow It open and blow you to hell. " There was no response to the second end call , and the tiring again began. Fully twenty shots were discharged. Still there was no response , and the three men prepared a small blast of dynamite tignlnst the car door. In tlie meantime the shooting had awak ened the passengers. At this moment tne conductor , brakfniari and porter ran back into the train and announced that the train was being held up. The passengers tried to hide their money and valuables. .Just , then the dynamite was exploded , it was a small charge and was intended more for Irlglit tnan anything else. A larger blast of dynamite was pre pared and exploded. This did the work. It tore the side off the car. The robbers leaped through the opening and the frightened messenger had nothing to do but accept his orders. He was overpowered and narrowly es caped being tori into ahreds He was ordered to open the safe , but could not do so , as the combination was at tiie end of the run. i The robbers then put a charge of dynamite to the safe and blew itopen. They dcmollhhed the safe but gotonly SI oO , as the money had all 'been left at Mubkogee , to be picked up by the territory by day. I'ASSBNOKllS roilCKD TO DELIVKU The me.ssenger and clerk were forced tj assist the bandits in their work. Every mall pouch was emptied and tlie mail considered valuable was tak en. Then , with Postal Clerk Tulley holding an empty mall sack , the rob bers went through the coaches and robbed every passenger They getS S fcO in one coach. A negro who re fused to give up. ills money was se verely beaten. The passengers were compelled to throw their valuables in to the pouch. Superintendent Sam Gaines , of the railway mail service , .viys he does not j believe the robbers got much money out of the mail pouches. After the work was done the rob- b rs , who seemed to enjoy the situa tion , sat around and laughed over the matter and one even went back into the car to get something After holdIng - Ing the train two hours the robbers left , going cast into the dense bottom timber for which the tortuous Caney I creek is noted The trainmen cut the j wrecked express car and ran down to i Caney station and advised officers up and down the road. Within two hours ' passes uf United States marshals with | b Dodliounds were on the trail. Tha express company says that it lost nothing and the conductors esti- maaos ihe passengers' losses at about $400 , not counting jewelry.

Five men were burned to death , four were drowned , three and possibly four were suffocated and hcvetal Injured ax the renultof a lire which destroyed a tem porary waterworks crib two miles oil the Cleveland harbor yesterday. HKKK HATKTY IS Till' WATKIl. Twenty-six men obeyed the order of Manager G. C. Van DUIIKCII when the llameH broke out and took refuse In the water on lloatlng pieces ofvreck - [ age. Four of them lost their hold up 1 on the frail Mom , and Hank beneath the waves Just as help reached their comrades , ' Tne rew of the tug .J II. Sprankle j heard the lire whistle blown from the [ crib and raced to the ccene from the harbor. She picked up eighteen of the survivors who had drifted to the west of the crib on their lloat of boards and wreckage. Van Denscn and three of his men were hanging In the water from a two-inch line .suspended from the crib , Just as the line was burning away above the men's hands a yawl boat from the barge \Vllhelm , manned by two men , dashed Into the veil of heat and suvke that enveloped thccrlband rescued the four men on the rope at the risk of the boatmen's lives. Tlie men picked up In the water were' ' brought to the city on the tug Spran- ' kle. They were naked , exhausted and and badly burned Many of them were cut by falling timbers. The crib Is a total loss. It was a frame building , 20x50 feet , the sides sheathed with Iron. It contained val uable machinery It Is now a charred , shapeless mass of wreckage and rnln- g'ed with the blackened timbers are blackened , rusted and twisted pieces and plates of iron and steel. The crib and machinery were the property of Shailer & .Schnlnglau , con tractors. ! Their loss will exceed S200- 000. TUOS OO TO TMK Illl'-CUK. Fire and harbor tugs with rescuing parties on board reached the crib soon after the Humes broke out , but when they arrhed the structure was a seething mass of flames and all hope for saving it was > abandoned Men , stark , naked , could be distin guished swimming and lloatlng In the water and shouting for help Others were clinging to ropes which they bad tied to the rafters but the flames were burning the ropes away and one by one the men were falling into the lake. The tugs circled around the burning crib , picking up men from the water and in the meantime play ing heavy streams upon the flames. After an hour's hard work the flames were extinguished enough so that the Bremen could climb up the charred steps and tia'ht the tire from the in terior. ! Then the horrors of the calamity were first realized Everything was a total wreck While the firemen were pouring water on the flames there was a roarinu furnace beneath which could not be reached. But the firemen cluns to their places and fought every inch of the way until the fire was under control After two hours of hard work live charred hu man bodies were found burned beyond recognition Two were in the atti tude of prayer. They must have been awakened by the fire , but could not escape. They wvre caught like rats in a trap. Une body was burned to almost nothing. All that could be 1 found was a skull and some bones. ' The bodies of two other men lay close I to those that were on their knees and It looked as though they never knew what happened to : them As soon as the five bodies were found the tug Kennedy notified the coroner tier of the discovery While this was goini : on strenuous effort were being put. forth to reach the men imprisoned in the tunnel , whose air iupply had apparently been stint oil entirely by the burning ot the compressed air machinery At times it was thought that no life could exist below How ever , It was thought noises were heard below , but the sounds ceased again. At- the mouth of the shaft it was like a furnace and the iron work was red hot from the flames The water that woh thrown on it turned Intosteatu at once. HAS PUOVKX A DKATll HOUK.
