LONDON , Oct. 7. There Is an ntr of con
siderable instory about the case of Walter
Michael Castle , the American merchant , Klla
-Jnsllc , his wife , and Krccl Castle , Ills 10-joar-
old son , who were arrested vcslcrday at the
lotcl Cecil and were charged at the Marl-
loroiiKh Sticet police court with stealing
rcvcial chinchilla and sable skins , worth 0
guineas ( tlOO ) , from several firms.
The manager of the Hotel Cecil , where the
larty were stopping , says today that the
bustles arrived lliero on September 26 , from
.ho continent. During their stay ut the
lotcl , there had been absolutely nothing In
.heir conduct which was noteworthy or SUB-
dclous. They seemed to bo very quiet and
neil respectable people , and he was most
astonished when the police came lo arrest
hpin The Associated press has made In-
Hilrlci of the police authorities regarding
, ho case , nnd has Icatned that no further
.ImrRca liavo as yet been preferred ngalnst
ho Castles. The police confess thomoclvcs
o bo much puzzled by the ease The cvl-
lencc against the prisoners seemed to be
confined to the fact that they had entered
ho shops making thu complaint , and , after
xamlnliiK the furs , left without buying
my. The furriers missed the goods Imme-
llatoly afterward , and notified the police
The latter claim they found tbo missing furs
.ogothpr with much Jewelry and some
dd hand-painted china In the Castles' trunks
at the Hotel Ce-cll. Mrs Castle Is claimed to
lave said , when she was taken Into custody
'My God , we bought most of the things In
Geneva , and one skin we bought from a boy
n the street. "
The sum of $90 was found on Castle , and
six 100-franc notes were found on his wife.
Joth thcso prisoners were remanded for a
neck , ball being refused , and the boy was
llschargcd Mr. Hodson , director for Philip ,
Moil Is & Sen , has taken charge of the bo > ,
'red Castle , nnd has engaged shrewd coun
sel In the case.

SAN FRANCISCO , Oct 7 The relatives
ot Walter Michael Castle have made cncr-
? otic appeals to the State department 'at
Washington for Interfeience on Mr. Castle's
behalf. Secretary Gluey telegraphed that he
lad cabled to Ambassador Bayard , directing
ilm to Investigate the rnatjer at once and
report to him The arrest of Mr. Castle
and his wife has caused a tremendous sen-
cation here , on account ot their wealth and
social prominence
No word hrs been sent by Walter M. Cas
io to any of his relatives here concerning
its arrest. His brothers , Colonel Albert p.
and Arthur H Castle , were dumbfounded
when shown the dispatch , and at once de
clared , as did other relatives of Walter ,
that the Idea that he or his wife had stolen
anything was preposterous , and that there
vas a hideous mistake somewhere.
Walter and his wife have been Ii
otters from him to me have been to the
effect that they have been having a splcn-
lld time I * is too bad that anj thing ot
this kind should occur to mar their pleas-
ire. They were to start for home tomorrow
There is some awful mistake In all this.
Vll of our friends know It Is unnecessary
or me to make any denial of this terrible
charge. The unblemished reputations of my
brother and his wife speak for them. We
are of course , prostrated at the receipt of
such news , hut everything , will douhtlciv ,
be explained tomonow. I ran say no moro
at this time I don't think there Is any
loubt that the parties referrol to In the
llspatch are my brother nnd his family.
Before they went to London he wrote to
me that they would stop , when they reached
there , at the Hotel Cecil. "
The news of the ariest was kent from
the mother of the Castle brothers. She is
111 In her apartments at the Hotel Richelieu
and It was feared that the receipt of the
bad news would give her a shock that might
result seriously.
The firm of Castle Bros Is one of
the largest and wealthiest In San Fran
cisco. Walter is the oldest of tbo thr a
brothers , their father having died some time
ago Ho was born in this city in 1S53. After
going through the local public schools , he
s-pcnt three \ears In the College of Brussels.
Belgium , and one year In the University of
London. _ _ _ _

FAIRMOUNT , Minn. , Oct. 7. Two masked
nnd bicycle-mounted robbers swept Into the
Ittlc town of Sherburne , fourteen miles from
icre. dashed Into the Hank of Sherburne.
murdered the cashier and n bystander nnd
secured $1,000 from the cash Hay , mounted
their wheels and escaped before the eves of
the startled villagers.
The affair was conducted with all the
bravado of the bolder drama , and the klll-
ng of the two men , ono of whom died In
stantly , was purely wanton , ns neither made
any resistance. The dead :
O. J. OVDHTON , traveling agent of tbe
Walter A. Wood Harvester company ; shot
hroiigh tbo heart.
CASIIIHH THOLJURN , of the Uank of Slier-
lurno , shot In the head.
The crime Is paralleled only b > the raid
of Jesse James nnd the Younger boys , when
hey swooped down upon the little town of
N'orthtleld , n few mites north ot tbo scene
ot today's crime , shot the cashier of the
Uank of Northfleld down and decamped with
a largo amount of money. In that In-
tance , the robbers departed on horses ,
vhcrcas , today the criminals , In Keeping
vlth tbo fines , used bicycles in escaping
rom the enraged citizens of Sherburne.
At about 130 o'clock two masked men
valkcd through the front entrance of the
) ank to the cashier's box , and , without a
vord , whipped out their revolvers , and lev
elled them at Cashier Thoburn.
The latter did not move , but the next
iilnuto the report of the revolvcis rang out
and Thoburn fell nt his desk. At another
lesk In the bank stood Overton. He was
the only other bar to tbo ends which the
robbers sought to gain , and as Thoburn fell
o the floor , they turned and shot him dead
As rapidly as possible they leaped over the
railing and bccurcd $1,000 In cash. Thev
heir ran for the back door of the bank ,
where they had taken the precaution to
cave their bicycles , mounted them and rode
aw ay.
It all happened Inside of two minutes , and
the only witness to the deed was a woman ,
vho stood across the street from the front
entrance of the bank , and was attracted by
he report of the revolvers. She saw them
urn on Overtoil , secure the money and de
camp. As soon ns possible she gave the
alaim , and In five minutes after tbe deed
lad been committed the town was in a
tale ot excitement such as has never be-
ere been sc n there ,
Thoburn was not dead , but Overton , how
r had been shot through the heart , and

own of Sherburno contains scarcely n score
moro than 300 Inhabitants , but Inside of ten
nlnutes , several posses had been formed ,
ncluding nearly every male cltli-en of the
own , and a search was at once Instituted.
Kvery town and village where there is the
slightest possibility ot the robbbeis visiting
n thcli efforts to escape has been warned
and their capture Is expected at any moment.

which was supposed to bo burglar proof ,
was blown open at 2 o'clock this morning
and $3,100 stolen. The job was neat and
could have been done only by experts , nn-
trance was made Into the building by prying
up a window with n crowbar. A small hole
was hacked through the brick vault , and
through this opening the perpetratois glided.
Hy force of the explosions "pieces of steel
wore hurled through both vault doors and
the floor was strewn with pieces of the safe ,
brick , notes and checks. All the notes were
found excepting several hundred dollars'
worth belonging to I3d Anderson , the cash
ier. These were badly burned , some of them
entliely , Watci hud been thrown on tbe
flrc. Suspicion points to two young men
who hung about town Monday who had no
particular business. They passed the bank
a number of times , and emu changed a bill
thereA citizen who noticed their suspi
cious actions warned the bankers about
these men. They were about five feet eight
Inches tall , welched 150 pounds and looked
like railroad men dressed up. Ono was of

drt > s
"One gicnt lesson to be learned from thn
lives of these men burled here nnd their
comrades Is Hint there Is no danger to the
republic to great that It mn ' not bo over
come by the union of patilotism. Nothing :
can be so appalling as wan the assault of
these who vvlsbcd to destroy It thlrty-llVo
years ago In Its defense blood WBS shcil
In torrents and treasure expended In In
conceivable sums , but It wns saved , and It
was worth the cost. The republic may
lm\o banded enemies who tire not armed
posts. In the mind of a lover of bis coun
try there Is no difference between an at
tack upon Us terrltoiy than an attack
upon Ita honor. When either Is lost all la
lost that gives the pride of citizenship of. a.
great country. In the defense of one , na In
the dcfenbc of the other , there must bo a
sacildcc of all private Interest , a kinking
of nil mere party feeling nach citizen
"must listen , not to tlio sophistries addressed
to his suspected base sellhhncss , but to the
voice of his own conscience This Is what
was done by the patriots In every national
crisis. Their union then was Invincible ,
and It will nlwaja be Invincible. Now , let
us dedicate this monument to the memory
of the patriots of Gnlcsburg and to patriot
ism. It Is not a monument of pride , put
up by the victors In the flush of their con
quest.
"Since the cloao of the gicat trouble
which It commemoiatcu , victors and van
quished have by the thousands nnd tens ot
thousands followed Into the sleep of death
under the peaceful shelter of their home.
Wltb few cjLCeptlons the names of these who
wore In high places of state on either side ,
or who led nrmlrs or corps or divisions In
battle , or who commanded squadrons on

western states are tbo creations of credit.
Uoirowed money built the railroads , built
their cltlca anil their manufactories and
enabled the joung farmei who had taken
a quaitpr section from the government to
Iniy bis stock , build his IHJIIM > and barns and
fences. Of this bonowed money , no far an
thorallroads are concerned , at least nearly
ono-half has been lost. Thu Atchlson , To-

Chauncey M Dcpew , who was Introduced by
I'jcsldont John H. FInley ns the greatest
orator of the dny. Ho said-
"Abraham Lincoln was not on accident ,
but a development. Ho did not leap Into

domuiiblrallonN of sujiicmo ability , It lu

shocked as never before by Ills assassination ,

juie votes or move audiences , Memorial

"To undeislund the significance of the
meeting hero thirty-eight years ago bctvyeeii
Lincoln nnd Douglas VM > must recreate the
conditions under which ( hey fought , rovfvo
the question which cauiicd parties to rusti
from partisanship to rebellion and rein-
carnatu tbo combatants on thla fnmouu
field. The apparent contcH was the state
hood of Kansas , but both the orators am )
thn people knew that the tremendous Issue
was between freedom and slavery , the dls-ij
solution of the union or Its perpetuity.
"Upon thin platform and on this very
spot thirty-eight > rirn ago today stood thsso
Intellectual athletes Llmoln and Douglna.
Neither they nor tboast audience which

story of the nineteenth century , It wait
tbe battle eternally go on , 'often lout , but

It IH to the eternal honor and glory of
DougUs that when the war broke out the
