The Ingenuity of fellows who are locked up with nothing fo do but to plan ways of get- ting out Is sometimes remarkable.

GIGANTIC RAILROAD PASS SWINDL \\u ked Successfully lime—Forgers Arrest NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 3L.—Barrett & Wenner, doing business as railway ticket scalpers at 734 Canal street, and a number of persons assoclated with them at other points, were arrested today for issuing fraudulent railroad passes. The Southern Pacific estimates that it has been fleeced out of about $50,000 in fares, and has had detectives at work since May. In addition to these, W. R. Fagan, a passenger agent, gave valuable assistance by becoming a conductor and ostensibly falling into the schemes of the combine, carrying out their orders and seeing through the j ngers with forged passes. Letters addressed to him, although unsigned, formed the basis of the charges of fraudulent use of the mails, upon which the arrests were made., The scheme is said to have been gigantic and well worked and the passes could hardly be distinguished from genuine passes, The firm is said to have agents in all principal cities along the line, and when a passenger desired to purchase a ticket he furnished with a pass for a point beyond his destination and re- d a good rebate for turning the ticket to his agent at his landing place. In that way the company never saw the tickets, which were destroyed by the agents, and it was dificult to trace the fraud. The decoy system was then at- tempted, and worked with the success al- ready stated. After it was determined to make the arrests the different parties, thou- sands of miles apart, were all landed in jail within four hours. Barrett was arrested here and Wenner at Covington, La. Other arrests were made at New York, Houston and San Antonio. e gt GUARD © THE Shovelers Work at Ish- of Strikers.

The news is gladly received by the merchants and many of the workingmen, who have been cut of employment seven weeks, and have not the courage to oppose the strikers, Four crews of shovelmen ar- rived tonight by special train and are quar- tered at the Lake Engeline, Lake Superior and Cleveland mines. The shovelers will by started Monday morning. A loss of over $500,000 has been caused thus far by the strike. There was a large meeting of strikers n this city today and much excitement was shown, due to the news that the shovelers would be started on Monday. The strikers have not yet heard that the troops have been called out. Clever . for a UNBER MILITIA, CAME 3 INHER Son and Grandson Murderous Attncks, LEXINGTON, Ky., Aug. 3L.—H. C. Ro- denbaugh, owner of the Hotel Woodford, at Versailles, one of the victims of W. N Lane's murderous attack with a pistol four weeks ago, died today. Lane was removed to the Frankfort jail when it was found Roden baugh was sinking. Rodenbaugh's young son James was instantly killed by Lane when the former started to his father's rescue. The elder Rodenbaugh's father, John Roden- baugh, was murdered near Kent, Portage county, 0., in 1865, for robbery, for which one man man was hanged and another sent to prison for life. Three generations in di- rect descent, father, son and grandson, have fallen victinis to murderers.

MALVERN, Ta. Aug 31 —(Special)—The political fires in Mills county are now burn- ing brightly and the “pot” will be kept boil ing until after election. M!ls county is nom inally republican by a majoity of about 300 on the state ticket, and they generally elect a majority on the county ticket. The demo- crats_seem to have had a *cinch” on the sherift’s office, as they have held it contin- wously for twenty years. This year the re- publicans are determined to wrest even that office from the democrats. The calls are now out for three conventions—the pipulists toda republican September 20, and democratic September 19, The leading candidates for the republican nominations are: Representative, I. L. Helnsheimer and Judge W. S. Lewis of Glenwood, John Parker, Ingraham township, C. W. Black of Malvern, and W. M. Coats of Hillsdale; sheriff, W. L. Tubbs, Em. erson, and M. O. Hanks, Silver City; treas- urer, A. D. French, present incumbent, and A Utierback of. Rawles township; superintend- ent of schools, Rrof. E. H. Hamilton. Mal- vern seems to be in the lead. Mr. Pitser, Silver City, and A. B. Adams, Malvern, are also aspirants for the office. There s very little talk on the part of the democra! ex- cept that Deputy Sheriff J. L. Talbott of Mal- vern will try for the nomination for sheriff. Lost Thousands of Dollars, SIOUX CITY, Aug. 31.—(Special Tele- gram.)—For some time an organized gang of robbers has been making headquarters in the bluffs west of Yankton, near the Bon Homme county line. Their richest hauls are made from farmers who do their bank- ing in hen coops, hay mows and cellars. One wlio recently hid §1,200 in a hole in his hay loft was watched by the gang and during his absence the money was abstracted. An- other recently planted $800 In a can at the cdge of his garden, and when he looked for it found they had only left the hole. Many thousand dollars have been lost in this way. The Bohemian and German-Russian farme: seldom deposit their money in banks, and a prominent banker at Yankton estimates that at least §300,000 is hidden away about farms in Yankton county.

At 2:20 & m. a second alarm was turned in, but before the engines could lay hose the flames burst through the stage vindows in the rear, showing that the erior was burning fiercely. The Academy of Music was the oldest play house in Buffalo and one of the historic theaters of America. It been managed for a quarter of a century by the Meed brothers, and every actor of re- nown has played within its walls at some time or other. The theater building and property were valued at $25,000, including the land, The structure was four stories high on Main street and five on Washington, It was filled with scenery and properties which had accumulated during the past twenty years. The loss wiil be difficalt to estimate. Besides Chase & Comstock and a variety store, the other temants of the building were' P. Miller, saloon, and several real es- tate, Insurance and brokerage firms. A’ third alarm was sent in at 2:40. The theater at that hour was surrounded by steamers and drenched with water. The fire baffled all efforts to subdue it. A few min- utes later the flames broke through the roof. Adjacent property was seriously me aced. By this time the loss had already passed into the hundreds of thousands, and the end had not yet come. CANNO' Major| of the Supreme cldes This Vital Qu SALT LAKE CITY, Atg. 31.—The supreme court has decided that women cannot vote at the coming election in November. This reverses the recent decision made by Judge Smith at Ogden. The cases came up on ap peal in the suit of Sarah B. Anderson against Charles Tyro, registration officer at Ogden, inyolving the question of women voting Chief Justice Merritt rendered the decision today. He said that Judge Bartch and him- self had arrived at a conclusion, Julge King dissenting. Mrs. Anderson Acand in and WOMEN VOTE IN UTAH, had asked that her name be placed on the registration lists. Judge Merritt said that the Edmunds-Tucker law was not repealed and would remain effective until statehcod was achieved. Section 2 of the enabling act had extended the franchise among males, but had' not referred to fe- males. To allow females to vote would be in conflict with the act and was forbidden Stress had been laid upon the fourth section of the enabling act, where the “qualificd voters of the state were authorized to vote.” In his view these qualified voters were those qualified under existing laws and the enabling act. There had been no intention on the part of the constitutional convention to allow women to vote at the first election in No- vember next, but to vote afterward. This was clearly shown in section 11 in the federal constitutio Judge Merritt said he would file a written opinion reversing the judgment of the lower court, RACED FOR ONF HUNDRED MIL Tranxatinntic Pasxengers Novel Ride o NEW YORK, Aug.
