Military in PLOT T0 RESCUE CONVICTS Officials of Wyeming State Prisen Ditcayer It ia Time OUTLAWS IN. CAMP NEAR UNION PACIFIC Plan to Release Privoners on Train And Sapply Them with Food and Armue—Timely Discovery the Scheme, CHREYENNE, Wyo., Dec. 7.—(Special Tel- egram.)—If reports from Laramie are true the fears of the officlals of the state prison that an attempt would be made to hold up the train bearing the long and life-term convicts to the new penitentiary at Rawlihs were well founded. It Is reported that a bold plot to free the prisonors had been discoyered, and that the conspirators, who are desperate men, were in camp along- side the Union Pacific road a few days ago, but fled when they learned that the details of their plans Whd become known. It is said the plan of the outlaws was to hold up the train, liberate the convicts anl arm them with rifles and ammunition and give them clvillans' clothing and food. The convicts would then be in a condition to atand off a posse of armed men sent out to effect their capture. For several months past it was known that friends of Bob Lee, allas Curry, the notorfous train robber who was arrested at Cripple Creek two years ago and convicted here of complicity in the Wilcox train rob- bery, have been making efforts to liberate the outlaw. Several suits of civilluns' clothing, guns, ammunition and food have been found near the prison walls, and sus- plefous looking characters have been seen in the vicinity. It is belleved that the plot to hold up the train carrylng the convicts was laid by members of the old Curry gang, and would undoubtedly have been carrled out by these desperate outlaws but for the timely discovery of the conspiracy. It is not known just when the convicts will be moved, as the utmost secrecy Is being main talned regarding the matter. LOOK FOR LARGE CROWDS Many Intend to dustrinl Conven amie.

PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 7.—The California express train on the Southern Pacific, which left San Francisco yesterday morning and 18 duo in this city at 7 p. m., was wrecked 500 feet south of the depot at Salem about 6 o'clock this evening. Fireman Silas L. Fish of Portland was killed and Englneer W. H. White seriously injured. Engincer White was caught under the wreck and held there an hour before being released, but his injuries are not considered fatal. No one else on the train was injured, not withstanding the fact that the engine, mall, express and baggage cars all went into the ditch. At the scene of the wreck there Is a trestle about fifteen feet high over Mill creek, the engine plunged into the creek, turning over on its side, and the mail car piled on top of it. The express and bag- ge cars left the track on opposite sides from the engine and mall cars. The day coach was deralled, but remained upright. The Pullman sleeper and private car of Buperintendent Fields remained on the track. The train was running about ten miles an hour and it is not known what caused the accident. The track was torn up for more than 100 feet, blocking traffic for several hours. The Albany local train, due at Salem at 6:30, was turned back to bring the over- land passengers and malls to Portland. An examination of the track shows thet & switch was left halt open and the lock was gone. Tho engine took the switch while the tender stayed on the main linw It 15 belleved to have been the work of train wreckers.

ST. PAUL, Minn,, Dee. 7.—The rallroad and warehouse commission today held an executive sesslon, at the close of which the secretary, A. C. Clausen, sent to the Interstate Commerce commission a letter. canceling the appointment made for a con- ference of the two commissions for next Tuesday In Washington. The letter to the Interstate commission merely stated as the reason for the change of mind on the part of the commission that it had been found impossible to secure the presence of Attorney General W. B. Doug- lass. The real cause, however, is said to be the refusal of Governor Van Sant to go on with what he has termed a “‘wild goose chase.” Governor Van Sant this afternoon re- celved a letter from Governor Rogers of Washington acknowledging the receipt of the Minnesota governor's letter and promis- ing hearty co-operation to the extent of his abllity.

From Hawail Governor Sanford Dole, who has accepted an hon- orary membership of the board of trustees, writes that he expects a most satisfactory contribution, as the people of Hawall thought a great deal of President McKin- ley. Governor Hunt of FPorto Rico Is equally sanguine and from Alaska the thousands who have gone to the gold fields assure the assoclation their hearty co- operation. From New England the people have already responded generously. Simi- lar assurances come from many other quar- ters. Many of the schools have taken up the plan enthusiastically. In Minnesota Governor Van Sant has glven assurances of $20,000 from the school children alone. Governor Hunt of Idaho has set apart a speclal day for school contribution.

T.~(Via Galves ton, Tex.)—General Alban, the Colombia commander, received the following tele. gram yesterday from Hogota, the capital of Bocas del Torro: b “The” country proclalms you the savior of the republic by virtue of your recent admirable trlumphs and awards you welle merited honors for your incomparable en- ergy, which is always greatest in times of national danger.” General Alban returned to Colon today on the British cruiser Tribune and proceeded immediately to Panama. In a short inter- view the general said too much importance had been attached to the disturbance at Bocas del Toro. General Alban eald the disturbance was due_to the Inability of the men to speak Spanish. The matter wae amicably settled at a conference held at Bocas del Toro between the foreign con- suls, Captain Galloway, commander of the Tribune, and General Alban. The latter declares that all the Jamaicans imprisoned at Bocas del Toro wben the government forces drove the liberals from the Old Bank were found in arralgnment againet the government. General Alban informed the correspondent of the Associated Press that the authorities at Bogota notified him some days ago that all diplomatic relations be- tween Venezuela and Colombla had been severed. Venezuela, he sald, has men in the Tiachira district under General Gone zaleo Valenc Colombla hi a much smaller force at San Cristobal under Gene era] Castro. General Alban lays all the blame for the recent isthmiam events on the Panama rail- road. He says it was criminal to bring the enemy from Las Cascaldes station to the gates of Colon, allowing the 1iberal sol- diers to subsequently pay the fares. The government has protested against this ac- tion and a lawsuit will follow. He further declares that the railroad's refusal to con- vey troops along the line to the scene of the engagement greatly intensifies the offense. He says Colombia is all but quiet and the prospects of peace throughout the republic are now very bright.
