SILVER1TES READY TO MAKE CONCESSIONS

WASIIINOTON , Aug. 0. The developments
it today have not been such as to give
promise of tin early discussion of the silver
< ) uestlon hi the two houses of congress. The
democratic senators , after a caucus lasting
several hours , found themselves absolutely
unable to agree upon any line of action and
finally adjourned until later In the day , the
intention of the sonata being to adjourn
from tomorrow noon to Monday in order to
glvo opportunity for 'tho fullest Informal
discussion of the subject among the senators
of both parties before entering upon legisla-
latlon. In the failure of the democratic
senators to agree upon any party policy the
advocates of the repeal of the Sherman law
find no encouragement. They say the finan
cial question has risnn nbovo the Hold of
party politics and the crisis of the hour is
not ono that will down ut the bidding of
King Caucus , but must be mot and solved by
men whose statesmanship rises above party
considerations and partisan advantages.
Lulsurelv , as It always is , the senate , with a
membership of only one-fourth that of the
houie of representatives , will probably bo
behind the popular branch of government In
meeting the Issue , and will doubtless not
roach n full and frco discussion of the silver
question until n repealing bill comes over
from the house for consideration.
The free coinage ) mon of the house had a
caucus and adopted a resolution which will
bo a revelation to the ultra free coinage men
of the west , but will prove a tower of
strength to these who arc fortifying them
selves against an unconditional repeal of the
Sherman purchasing act. The resolution
adopted at the caucus is regarded as n mas
terly stroke on the part of the silver men , as
it practically abandons the ratio of 115 to 1
and agrees to accept such a compromise
ratio as will maintain the parity between
gold and silver. Tnls is interpreted to mean
that the free coinage men will bo willing to
accept a ratio of 1H or Sl ! ) to 1 if a free coinage
bill is passed as u substitute for the Slier-
man bill , and Implies that most vigorous
efforts will bo made to induce the radical
silver mem of the far west to yield to the
Judgment of the most conservative free
coinage men of the country.
The monometallists tonight realize that
the action of the frco coiuaco caucus today
will bo likclv to strengthen that element in
the two houses and render unconditional
repeal of the Sherman a > H more dllllcult. It
amounts to an olive branch and comes at a
time when not any ono expected th.it such
an offer of compromise would bo maeio by
the free coinage members. Thus , while the
action of the democratic senators in failing
to agree upon a line of party policy lias en
couraged the advocates of repeal , the unex
pected action of the free coinage members
of the hoiiho in practically abandoning the
ratio of Hi to 1 and offering to compromise
on a now ratio , based on present values , has
proven correspondingly discouraging , us il
will deprive the repealintr men of what was
expected to bo one of their strongest argu
ments in congress , that frco coinage meant
the enriching of mine owners at the expense
of tlui masses by fixing u fictitious value on
a depreciated motal.
I.nyluir Their Ilruil * Tocothor.
This is & day of caucuses. The house
adjourned till Thursday to give the
silver men full cope for consulta
lion. The senate mot and , wlthoti' '
transacting any business , adjourned till to
morrow on motion of Mr. Gorman. Tin
yeas and nays were demanded by Mr. Plat
and resulted in a vote of18 to 21.
Nearly every democratic senator was prcs
cut lit the party caucus this morning to dc
cltlo , if ppssll'lo , on plans for party actioi
relative to the silver discussion. The meet
ing developed as wldo a divergence of view
us that between the wings of the partv 01
frco silver coinage , and when the time fo
the senate to assemble arrived nothlni
had been accomplished and Hdjournmon
was taken till after the senate adjourned fo
the day. The free silver democrats a
once he-Id conferences with the frco sllve
republicans and the result was soon evident
for the latter voted with the democrats fo
the adjournment of the senate without th
transaction of business.
Unproductive of ItcHiilts.
The afternoon caucus was almost as un
productive of results as the morning session
Most of the tinio was consumed In the ex
prcsslon of Individual views which clean ;
demonstrated that each clement in the part ,
was firmly wedded to Its own notions. On
Hcnator who occupies a high position in th
finance committee and wboso leaning tc
ward frco silver Is pronounced , dcclarci
positively : "You can sot down as a certaint ,
that the Sherman act will not bo ropo.ilo
unconditionally. "
On the other hand , some senators wh
have sided with the president , said rathe
despondently , that while no tangible ad
vnnco had been made toward a point wliur
thu jKuty could bo united , they had no
abandoned hope that the ofTarls In tha
direction might eventually result in succe'ss
It is gathcTeet from this that tlio condi
tlomil repeal proposition is gaining ii
strength , and that certain of the ultra sllve
men are preparing to follow in the dircctioi
indicated by thei loaders In the silver caucu
lu the house today , namely : Toward n
iio.il with frco colmign nt an Increased ratio
It was rather n significant fact that the si1
ver men appeared to have less anxiety tha
their opponents about the result of the ca\
cus , as was evidenced by thulr condue
while the senators were discussing the slu
atinn , a number of them leaving the root
and goim ; to tlio restaurant , where the
calmly indulged In luncheon , apparently in
concerned ns to what was going on in th
chamber nbovo.
Trying to ArrniiKo I'lnn ,
Neither party In the senate has over bee
able to caucus with coimilolo success on th
subject of silver , and today's caucus was n
exception tn the rule. So after exhaustin
thu possibilities of debate ) the caucus fe
back Uurn | the oft-tried expedient of del
gating to a committee the task of endcavo
ing to arrange a plan of business that shout
bo satisfactory to till sides.
Mr Goimun , the chairman of the caucu
was authorl/.cd to appoint this commitu
and the caucus itself adjourned subject i
his call , which will bo issued as so.m us tl
committee has reached an agreement and
prepared to submit a report for action. It
mediately after the adjournment of the ca
cus Mr. ( ionium repaired to the room of tl
committee on appropriations and called In
consultation Senators Blackburn , ( < ra ,
Hansom and Voorhces , Senator Cockre
was invited to remain in thu room. All <
these-senators , with the exception of Sen
tor Uray , were members of the democrat
caucus committee of the last session , an
although Mr. Gorman hail not made his a
polntmentsat thu ilmo of thu consnltatio
tholr prcbciu-o gave color to the oxpectatic
that they would bo mimed members of tl

WASHINGTON , Aug. II. The caucus of mem
bers of the house of representatives who
favor the free coinage of silver , which was
called yesterday by Heprcscntativo Bland ,
was held today In the house , l.istfngjfrom
noon until 30 : ! ! p. m. At thecloso It was
officially announced that the following reso
lutions , offered by Mr. Boatnor of Louisiana ,
had been adopted by a unanimous vote :
Kwolvt'd , That wo will support a bill re
pealing the purchasing clause of the yiiornian
act , ami concurrently provldlnc fur the
anil unlimited coinage of silver with full l
temilur quality on such a rutlo as will provide
and maintain thu parity between Kohl and
silver. Holt further

milntcd bv the chairman of this conference 10
draft und Introduce such a bill and take
proper stops to se-curn the full and frco dlh-
ctfistoii and consideration thereof nml a. vote
of thu housu upon the bill and alLnroper
amendments.
The committee provided for in the fore
going resolution was composed as follows :
Messrs. Bland , Slbloy , Boatncr , Lane , Bank-
head , Bryan and Bailey.
By a vote of the caucus Judge Culbcrson
was added to the committee.
l-'orco of the Sllverlte ? .
When the caucus met it was estimated
that there were about forty members of the
bouse in the hall , but during the time the
caucus was in session about 100 members
wcto admitted. Estimates of the number in
attendance ranged from sixty to lU."i the
clerk of the caucus fixing the number at
ninety-three and Mr. Bland saying ho
counted over 100.
Judge Culbcrson of Texas was elected
chairman of tnc caucus , and Houresentative
Sibley of Pennsylvania , the only democrat
present from the eastern states , secretary.
The only republican present was Repre
sentative Bowers of California. The popu
lists were represented by Jerry Simpson and
Mr. ICum of Nebraska.
The attendance unon the caucus can
hardly bo regarded as n test of the strength
of the silver forces in the house for the
reason given by Mr. Enloe of Tennessee
that reason was that the elemocrats were
charged by the people with the duty of
legislating soon to reme'dy the present de
pression in all branches of business. A
democratic caucus anil not n mixed confer
ence should have been called to talk over
the situation and to formulate ) a plan of re
lief. Of the entire Tennessee delegation
many of whom arc in favor of frco coinage
but ono ( Mr. Cox ) was present at the con
ference. This same thing was true of a
mimlxu' of the frco silver men from other
states , who elid not eloslro to separate them
selves from their respective organisations
even on this question.
Heports from members after the caucus
adjourned agreed that 110 differences of
opinion were disclosed in the progress of the
discussion. The question of the ratio ol
coinage of silver was not discussed , except
incidentally , and , as will 'bo noticed , no
specific figure was named in the resolution.
Aludo Spceollcs.
Speeches were made by Judge Culbcrson ,
Messrs. Bland , Hatch and Hoard of Mis
souri , Grain and Bailey of Texas , Simpson ol
Kaisas ) , O.itos and Bankhcad of Alabama ,
Bryan of Nebraska , Slbloy of Pennsylvania ,
Bo'itner and Blancharel of Louisiana , anil
others , all in support of the object for which
the caucus had been called.
Besides the action reported , a motion hi
Mr. Bland was adopted authorizing the ap
poiutnumt of a committee of ' 'whips , " one
from each state , whoso doty it shall bo tc
t- canvass the house , discover each member's
standing ujioii the proposed bill and see thai
every friend of the measure Is in his seal
and ready to vote when the time comes
Tlio committee has not yet been named.
Mr. Bland stated after the caucus that it
had been in every respect satisfactory tc
the friends of free silver coinage. The
steering committee which had been named
ho said , would probably meet the committee
of anti-silver men tomorrow and discuss the
details of the discussion to bo had upon the
bill outlined in the resolution adopted.Ve
will require' ample time , " remarked Mr
Bland , "to carry out the terms of the reso
lutioiiB , and I do jao' , sco how it will be possi
'n bio to como to a vote under a month , 01
possibly six weeks. I cannot toll when the
e-ommlttee will have its bill ready to proscni
to the houso. The question of the ratio tc
be inserted in the bill was not discussed , bui
it is apparent that some of the free silvoi
men are satislled that the present ratio o
10 to 1 should bo changed. We shall prob
a ably vote upon the present ratio of 10 to 1
r and H that is defeated then 18 to I and s <
on up to " 0 to 1 , If necessary.
llonrko C'oekr.in'tt Proposition.
In the course of the session Mr. Bland pro
scilicet the terms of the propositions maeli
to him by Bourke Cockran , on behalf of the
anti-sllvcritcs , lor an Immediate discussloi
of the whole silver question. This proposi
tlon , it Is understood , included a limitatioi
of tlmo within which a vote should betaken
the number of amendments to bo offered ti
the measure introduced for discussion , am
the manner of disposing of them , etc. I
could bo made ) effective only , of court-ti , b ;
the consent of the silver men , and that tlio ;
might have an opportunity to consider i
was one of the principal reasons for holdini
today's caucus. Every ouo who talked abou
the proceedings this afternoon avoided an ;
mention of tlio viowc of the members npot
the subjectJiut the tenor of thorn may b <
fairly Judircel by the langnatro of th" rcsolu
tlon adopted and that of Mr. Blnr.d. Th
inference seems that the proposition of tlr
anti-silver men was not acceptable to th <
advocates of free coinage , and , for the pru ?
out nt least , there ) will bo no general consei ;
to arrangements for directing the discusslo
of the bill to repeal the Sherman law.

WASHINGTON , Aug. U. 1
An effort will bo made at the tlrst oppor
tunity to secure , under a suspension of rules ,
legislation designed to succor bankers In the
west who may bo suffering disastrous "runs"
from depositors. It Is a mu.isuro directing
the treasurer of the United States to have
the various subtreasurers tu the country
transfer by telegraph from ono section of
the country to another cash which may bo
deposited at the subtreasury for transfer.
It has been learned that a number of banks
in the west , some of which were located in
the vicinity of Nebraska , could have boon
saved from suspension of business had they
been able to have currency transferroel by
wire or rather orders for the currency from
Now York. In a number of Instances banks
have been forced to suspend within a low
hours of the arrival of ample funds by
express.
Under the proposed arrangement a Ne
braska or Iowa banker who could raise cash
for deposit with the subtreajurer in Now
York could have that otllco wire the sub-
treasurer at Chicago or elsewhere to pay out
to the order given a like sum and thu banker
needing the cash would bo saved the delay
of exprcssage , which , in many instances ,
has been of sufficient tlmo to allow depos
itors to exhaust his available cash. Thcro
Is no law to prohibit such transfers at pros-
eut but.tbcro is no appropriation with which
the treasurer of the United States can pay
express charges when it becomes necessary
to ship currency from Washington to
make up payments by subtreasuncs
west. Then , too , there is a disinclination
among treasury officials to impose the few
extra clerical elutles on themselves and the
subtreasurer lu iNcw York. At present It is
impossible to transfer money from ono sec
tion of the country to another by telegrauh
in sulllcient quantities to materially assist
banks in distress. The telegraph companies ,
feeling the scarcity of cash , refuse to transfer
moro than $1,000 on any otio day to any ono
person. Besides this the charges for such
transfer amount to 1 per cent und thu tele
graph tolls.

CINCINNATI , Aug. " . \ \ 111 the democracy
of Ohio stand by President Cleveland or by
the platform on wbfoll ho was eloctedt That
Is the question to bo solved within the next
thirty-six hours , and there U no man In or
out of Ohio who can predict the result with
confident accuracy. If early half of the delegates
gates are unpledged undone-quarter of them
00 not know tonight how they will vote.
Ncal has declared that he will abide by
the Chicago platform dnd his followers are
democrats of the untcrrillod stamp whojvill
stick to nim as long ns there Is a show of his
nomination.
On the other hand , the Campbell men
make no denial of the fact that they are
with the administration and they are out to
beat Ncal and boat him with any man who
can bo made available. C.tmpbull will not
bo n candidate , and if his nnmo goes before
the convention by the 'net ' of some enthusi
astic follower it will bd Instantly withdrawn.
The leaders of the Campbell faction wore In
session tills aftcrnoch at the St. Nicholas
las hotel endeavoring to concentrate
their strength upon , some candidate
to oppose Ncal. The meeting showed that
there * Avua a decided difference of opinion
as to who would best put Neal upon
the shelf , but the opinion of the
majority was strongly In favor of Chnrlos
W. llalcor of Cincinnati , and he will doubt
less bo selected to lead the opposition to
Neal. The Neal men have claimed that
they hare S'JS votes assured. Neal himself
1 ays ho does not know how large a vote ho
will poll and thli Is tnknn as n sign of weak
ness by his enomles. , This is his third
attempt to become governor of Ohio and
the Camboll men assort that he by this time
Knows perfectly well whore His strength
lies and If ho has (05 votes assured ho
would lose no time in claiming them with a
loud volco. |
John B. McMahon pf Dayton , who was
mentioned for the nomination and who had
quite a following , has Iflcked the gas out of
his own balloon by declaring that ho
would not take the nomination If it were
tendered him by both" parties. Then Me-
Million , after declaring this , hastened over
to the St. Nicholas holiil and locked himself
in a room with the antl-Neal people. The
selection of Bower to lead the Campbell side
of the convention has hurt Neal some in
Hamilton county. Hamilton people have no
use for G rover Cleveland , they dislike him
more than any man on earth and would have
caused a solid vote fof Neal whether they
liked him or not , rather than for any can
didate who comes of the administration ,
but now many of thorn nro being swayed by
local pride and declare that a Hamilton
county man must bo supported by Hamilton
county votes. It is certain that Baker will
receive some of Hamilton county's vote ,
though he may not got much of it.

PAIUS , Aug. 0. [ Now York Herald Cable
Special to Tuc Bti.j Up'to the present
the electoral canvas appears to bo going
on quietly. Some hard knocks have been
given , but they did not exceed the
usual political bounds. In the last two
days , however , everything has changed.
\Vn are beginning to have moro insults and
threats exchanged than over. Ono quarrel
had like to ended with a pistol shot , not as
In n duel , but as In a street corner ffght ,
where the Marquis do Mores was declaring
that ho would pursue M. Clcmcnccau to the
war to prevent his election.
It is known that the quairol originated in
the Panama affair. The Marquis do Mores
had accused M. Clomenccau of being In the
pay of England. The accusation was merely
based upon a political defense by M. Clemen-
ceau in the Chamber of Deputies and In his
paper. This was the cause of many scandals
and of the forged pay documents read In the
Chamber by M. Mlllovoyc. M. Clomenceau
attacked the Marquis do Mores upon two
points. First , that the brother-in-law of the
marquis was an ambassador to Germany and
Madrid ; and , second , that the Marquis do
Mores was par excellence the enemy of the
Jews. In elaborating the second point it
was stated that the marquis had formerly
borrowed from Dr. Cornelius Horz.
DoMores Tulls Ills Version.
To the first charge the Marquis do Mores
replied that ho had a slstcr-in-law married
to a foreign diplomatist whoso patriotism
had not been called In question. As to Dr.
HervM. Clemencoau was right , but there
are explanations , which latter will bo ex
pected with much curiosity.
The marquis said that In the spring of
18'Jl ho lost n large sum of money at bac
carat in the Circle do la Hue Hoyal. Being
embarrassed ho had recourse to his political
friend , M. Drumont , who was unable to fur-
nisli him with funds. When ho addressed
himself to M. Andrioux , the former prefect
of police , who was mixed up with
everybody's trouble , M. Andrioux probably
mentioned the matter to Dr. Ilerz , the rich
Hebrew , who did not aslf anything moro
than the pleasure of being able to oblige ,
and at the same time humiliate the anti-
Semite. Ho ottered to lend the money to the
marquis , but asked that M. Drumont should
assist at the negotiations. The Marquis do
Mores and M. Drumont were welcomed by
Dr. Her ? , who was desirous of the presence
of the editor of La Libro Parole , having an
eye to the future. The marquis does not
deny the facts and explained that ills neces
sities were the causo.
Some Oilier * Who Are Sure.
M , Drumont is very much displeased at
the revelations muelo by "tho Marquis do
Mores. M. Roquefort is also drawn into the
affair , and is accused of having more than
10,000 francs worth of objects d'art in his
apartments. These are the facts. The
general public does not quite understand ,
and is astonished at seeing the advocates
conversing amicably after a hot dispute , and
the ropresonutives of the adverse parties
exchangingcourtcsiesaftcr a stormy seance.
This affair , which is quite Parisan , will
prove ttsbo ono of the funniest incidents in
the politics of 1S'J3 , if there should not be a
dead man in the caso. JACQUUS ST. CUIIE.

PANAMA , Colombia ( via Calveston , Tex. ) ,
Aug. 0. [ By Mexican Cable to the Now
York Herald Special to Tin : BiE. ] By the
seizure of documents belonging to leaders of
the Colombian radicals and liberals ,
news of which has Just been re
ceived from the Herald's correspondent in
Curacoa , plots have boon exposed and
revolutions averted which were intended to
include movements against President
Nunez of Colombia and General Crcspo of
Venezuela. The documents seized in Col
ombia show that the revolution was to have
been started in Colombia on August ! 1 ,
when President Nune/'s homo and the pub
lic buildings at Carthagcna and Barran-
qullla were to Have been blown up with
dynamite.
How the plot was started Is shown by the
Herald's correspondent in Curacoa. It Is a
sequel to a story scut by the correspondent
on February 11 of this year. This dispatch
said that General C'istro , who was governor
of the Venezuelan frontier state of Los
Andes under tlio administrations of Anduza
and Palaclo and Urdeanta , had transferred
to the leaders of the Colombian liberals
across the border a largo quantity of anna
which had been concealed by him in Tachira ,
near the boundary line between Vemeiuola
and Colombia.
TriiiinCm-rod the Arini ,
These arms wore transferred as soon at
Castro got tlio nowa that General Crcspc
had completely triumphed , indicating thai
there was an understanding oven at that
early date between the enemies of General
Crespo and Uv > liberal leaders of Colombia.
Progress of the movement was in
dlcated 4n n cable dispatch I sent tt
ttio Herald recently tolling of the consign
ineut of arms from Fort du Franco to i
Colombia port. It was then supposed thai
these arms were intended for the use o :
General Crcspo'a enemies In Venezuela , bu (

in Curacoa and the discoveries made bj
Gorlcln , prefect of Barranquilla , Indicati
that nn alliance between Crcspo'a enuinle-i
and the liberals and radicals of ColombU
hud been perfected.
The Herald's correspondent says that tin
plans were formed in Cuvacoa by Sobastlai
Casanas , Venezuelan minister of war undu
Palncio , and that ho was aided by the Co
louibiun generals , liosas and Vila. Tin
entire movement was to have been dlrectei
from Curacoa. Their plan was to bcgh
operations in Colombia by blowing
up the residence of President Nutie
and public buildings In Bogota am
Durratiquilla. The scheme included tin
sci/.uro of the local officials and inducing th

and [ arms were concealed. All the dyna
mite , of which the plotters had large quanti
ties , Is now In the hands of the government

What will bo done with the leaders has

convinced that by their arrest all danger of
nn outbreak has been averted.

from the Herald's correspondent in Buenos

by the clvlco nndonalos and liberals ,
after General Costa lied from La
Plata , has surrendered the city to the
federal authorities who lauded troops from
war ships to preserve order. The city was

of control to the federal government was
made after friendly negotiations. Officials

COAL COMES HtCrH.
Stlir Trices Predicted for the Season UHO
of ( ins lor CooklnR.
Indications now are that the price of coal
will begin this winter , where it loft off last
and that the question of fuel will cut a big
ger figure In the household calculations than
usual , and it is always big enough. Last
year the price of hard coal opened at $ ' . ) .iT > 0
in the fall and went toll. This year an
thracite promises to open the ball at $10.50
and will in all probability jump to $11 by Oc
tober 1 and to fl'J before the end of the
year.
Local dealers protest that they have noth
ing whatever to do with the fixing of prices
and lay all the bluino for tlio bl figures nt
the door of the jonl combine that controls
the output of the bit ? Holds in Pennsylvania
and tlio roads that haul the output to the
markets. This combine is the institution
that was reported to have gone out of ex
istence last winter as a result of adverse
legislation. Coal mon accept as true reports
that the combine cleared up ; § i"i,000,0H ( ) last
year over and above t'io ordinary prolits on
an output -lfi,000oOO tons of coal.
Chicago is paying f and 7.25 per ton for
hard coal this season , the largest price ovci
charged for the fuel in that city at this time
of the year. All of the Omaha dealers have
purchased their supply at tlio prevailing
figures , and there is no prospect whatever
for any reduction over the stiff prices of last
year.
Thcro will bo no marked change In the
rates on soft coal this year , the prices rang
ing from $2,150 for the cheap Iowa stuff to ? 1
for the best Wyoming aud Ohio coals.
Owing to the very high price of coal as n
fuel many people are turning their nttonllor
to gas as a fuel and are using it for all cook
ing purposes. Many olTorts have been made
to perfect appliances by which gas may lie
used for heating purposes , but thcso have
not reached the necessary degree of perfec
tion to warrant their general adop
tion. In the matter of gas foi
conking purposes , hoU'cvcr , the np
pllnuces have been perfected so that con
sumers who have used it claim that gas is
superior over coal for this purpose both as i
matter of economy and cleanliness. The gas
people claim that cooking for a family ol
eight persons mas bo done at an expense o
Jfi ecnts a day , or f I. W ) a month. This , it ii
claimed , is less than thoaverago e-ost to sucl
a family for sof , coal , and In addition doc :
away with the dirt and labor entailed by tin
use of coal. Stoves for cooking are furnlshui
at cost aud all connections made by tlio ga ;
company. Small heaters are also furnisliei
and it Is claimed that bath rooms and smal
bed rooms can bo heated by them mucl
more cheaply than by the use of hard coal.

iluiutcr and leaped from tlio train. The
lowulcrs Proicctlvo union placed the easa
'ii tlie hiimls of the Pinkorto ngency , and
for nlno months they have been on his trail.
The story of the capture is n curious one.
Oilman , twenty-live miles from Lcadvlllo ,
tvus tlio sccno of several incendiary llrus ,
ind a vigilante committee was appointed to
latrol tlio town. Two weolts ago a mys-
Lericms individual was discororcd prowling
about the Hank of Oilman , and
was captured after desperate resistance ,
ilo hud a full set of burglar's tools , together
with giant powder and caps. The cotmulUco
.vould have hanged the man at once but
.vlser . counsel prevailed. Ho was brought to
the roadvillo jail and employed able
counsel to got him released on a writ of
habeas corpus. The Plnkorlon agency got
wind of the camuro and sent Dotcctivo
Frascr hero to investigate. Tlio prisoner
was identltled as McCoy , but as further
identification was necessary Pollack was
sent for and arrived just in time. Ho idouti-
llod the man , who was known as ShirtclltT ,
positively.
The prose .cc of tlio detective and Pollack
was kept very quiet , but the prisoner's coun
sel got wind of It and attempted to have the
lu'tltion for habeas corpus withdrawn so bis
man would not fall into the hands ol tlio
detectives. Tlio judge decided that the
court must pass on the matter and released
Shirtcllff on the ground that the complaint
on which ho was held was insunicient.
This was Just what the detective wanted.
iVrmcd with the proper papers , he took
charge of ShirtelilV , alias McCoy , and took
him to Denver. MeCoyls backed by a gang
of bandits who have operated extensively
in tlio west. Ho offered large sums to the
jailer and sheriff to secure his release , but
without avail. There are others said to bo
mixed up in the affair.

Kid" MuCny Well Known to Mombora of
HIM l.ocul 1'orcc.
The Omaha police were much elated last
night when they heard of "Kid" McCoy's
arrest in Loadvlllo. This thief is well known
to the local ollicers , and his last trick in
this part of the country was to rob W.
L. Pollack , a traveling diamond salesman ,
of $15,001) ) worth of stones. Since than the
Omaha oflleors have furnished many valua
ble descriptions of .McCoy to the otllcers all' '
over the country. Sergeant Onnsby laid
that ho was conlidcnt that McCoy would be
"turned up" in due tlmo.
AleCoy was in Omaha previous-to tlio
robbery of Pollack , but ho was
not wanted then. The police , however , kept
such close survilllance Jon him that ho could
not get In his work'although ho hung around
Max Meyer's jewelry house waUimrfora
chance to loot their diamond exhibit. Then
ho turned the trick which finally landed hlni
in the hands of the cfilccrs. '
The police were notilloel last night from
Lcadvillo that the Pinkerton detective *
tliero had arrested James Burke , whoso
aliases are "Kid" McCoy , "Kid" Hurko and
James Wilson. The details of the chase for
this bird forms a narrative of suflloient in
terest to form the basis of a hair-raising1
dime novel. Burke is the most expert win
dow smasher known to the craft. Jewelers
from New York to San Francisco have suf
fered by his mania lor battering in plato
glass and sequestering valuable diamonds.
At Kansas City a few years ago no walked
into a Jewelry store , asked to see some diamonds
mends and walked on" with the tray. Pur
sued by the proprietor and finally cornered
by a mob , ho stood them otl single-handed
with a pair of liorso pistols , got
into a hack and emigrated. At San Fran
cisco ho pulled oir a f.10,000 play against a
jowclry store. Denver knows him well for
ono of these daring tricks which was
"turned" during business hours , and many
other complaints against itlio "Kid's"
methods came in from all over the country.

of the firm ofV. . Is. Pollack & Co. ,
Jewelers in Maiden Lane , Now Yoric ,
was a vmssengor , carrying a stock of
samples in a case inside of his coat , Hurko
made a request for the diamonds , and when
Pollack refused to honor it , ho slugged the
Jeweler into insensibility , the horri
fied passengers being too much sur
prised to interpose objections. This
was on November 4 , IbU'J , Burke
secured the diamonds and escaped , hut not
until after Pollack , who had recovered , was
shot in into shoulder and arm by the mur
derous highwayman. In tlio scramble for
the diamonds Pollack gave his man a hard
llu'ht. Burke lost his coat and hat. The
clews failed to nfforl the detectives any
trace of the window simmhor.
Pinkurton's men continued the chase , lo
cating thcr man several times , but he eluded
them cleverly. A few weeks ago an ex-con
