CHICAGO, Irr., Aug. 20.—A report, said to have emanated from the Detroit offices of the Wagner Company, was in circula- tion at the railroad offices to-day to the effect that negotiations were in grogresa looking to the consolidation of the Wagner and Pullman corporations. It was stated that the overtures had come from the Vanderbilt-owned concern, but the reasons for desiring a consolidation at this time were not given. Pullman, when asked as | to the truth of the report, said: “There is | no fqundation in fact for such a report, and |1 will say no more.”” Railroad officials | familiar h the sleeping-car part of the | business did not place much credence in | the report. ——e The Bull-Fight Barred. ATLANTA, Ga., Aug. 20.—The proposed bull-fight, which has been destroying the | peace of Colonel Ballou, has been can- celed. This afternoon the legislative board of the exposition put an end to the fight.

BULLETS AND DYNAMITE. | An Empty Safe in the Express Car Was Easily Blown Open. | TWO TRAINMEN WERE ROBBED. | Passengers Not Molested, but a Flagman Was Shot Down by the Bandits. | GRAND RAPIDS, Micx., Aug. 20.—The 5. M. Chicago and West Michigan pas- senger train from Chicago was held up by four highwaymen one and a half miles | south of New Richmond at 9:400’clock this evening. When the train reached the «| curve at this point it slowed up as usual, | and as it did so a signal was swung for the | train to stop. | Engineer George Zeibel reversed the {lever and applied the airbrakes and | brought the train to a standstill. A mo- | ment Jater he and the fireman, Michael | Driscoll, were cevered with revolvers by two men, while two others proceeded to | the express-car and ordered Expressman Bernard Van Otten to open the door. | This he refused to do and the robbers ’ began firing at the train, breaking all the windows in the express-car. Finding Van | Otten not easily scared one of the robbers forced the door and the two men went in, and while one covered the expressman the other dynamited the safe, blowing the door off. They got nothing, as it wasan | empty safe being taken from Chicago to the company’s offices in this city. The robbers then proceeded to the pas- | senger-cars, firing as they went. Entering | the car they held up Conductor E. E. Rice, taking his watch and $7 in cash. ‘While this was going on the other two robbers went through Engineer Zeibel and got his watch and also took one from Fire- man Driscoll. The four men then jumped | from the train, and as they did so they saw | Flagman Timothy Murphy signaling and | shot him in the right groin, inflictinga | serious wound. After firing more shots at the train the robbers struck out into the woods. After the train was started it ran into an obstruction a short distance north of the place of the hold-up. The robbers had piled the track with old ties, and some time was spent in clearing the track. The; | train was held twenty minutes, and arrived in this city at 11:10 o’clock. The wounded flagman was taken to the hospital. None of the passengers were molested, or in- | jured by flying bullets, but all were terri- bly frightened. | The Chicago and West Michigan officials at once dispatched a posse after the rob- | bers. The gang is evidently the same one | which assaulted a woman at Otsego, Sun- | day, and has been operating in Kalamazoo { and Alleghan counties for the past three | weeks, robbing farmers and holding up | travelers, OUTWITTED BY THE FIREMAN, | After Masked Men Stopped a Train the Engine Escaped. *| GOTHENBURG,NEsR., Aug.21.—Union Pacific train 8 was held up by masked men near Brady Island at about 1 o’clock this morning. The train was signaled and the engineer and fireman covered with re- volvers. The engineer was marched back to the express-car in routine manner, but the fireman was left in the cab. He seized the opportunity and cut the engine loose from the train. He immediately pulled for this city and was out of the way of danger before the robbers realized what he had done. Upon his arrival here he told his story, which created great excitement. A posse was quickly formed and a boxcar was coupled to the engine and the party started for the scene of the hold-up. At 2 o'clock nothing has been heard from the scene of the robbery. | A DAY ON THE DESERT. | Enights Templar Feed Good Indians in Idaho. BATTLE MOUNTAIN, Nev., Aug. 20.— Golden Gate Commandery has spent the day 1n the great American desert, feeding good Indians with peaches and water- melon at Humboldt, teaching the natives of Carlin how to keep cool with the tem- | peratuare at 110 degrees, and for every min- | ute of the desolate ride enjoying itself and Badge of the California Commandery, Enights Templar.

The Executive Now Able to Rest in a Big Fasy-Chair. STOCKTON, ;CaL., Aug. 20.—The im- provement in Governor Bndd’s condition is more marked every day. Dr.Sargent said this morning he thonght thatin about ten days the Governor would be able to be up and about. Then he will be removed to Tiburon, where quarters are being fitted up for him on board the steamer Merren, which is out of commission now. The patient continues his diet of eggs and milk, which has been prescribed to give him strength. He also eats birds and fruit, but is not allowed any meat except young pigeons, as it is bad for his rheu- matism. He seems brighter now that he has gained a little strength, and laughs ;n\lldchns with the members of his house- old. No matters connected with his official duties are yet allowed to come before him. Miss Todman, hisexecutive secretary,looks out for the correspondenee and helps the others to stave off the politicians, From the present indications it will not be long before the Governor will be himself once more. His eyeis brighter and his voice clearer than it had been, and the marked weakness has now about gone from him. 2 This afternoon be sat up in the invalid chair that has been procured for him. To- morrow he will be wheeled into the parlor for a time. It is expected to-night that the Governor will be able to go down to Tiburon a weck from to-morrow. WEALTH FOR A BEGGAR Fortune for a Man Jailed at Portland, Or., as a Vagrant. Dr. Murphy Notified That He Is the Helr to an Estate In Ireland. PORTLAND, Or., Aug. 20.—A fortune has chased across the Atlantic and across this continent to find an heir, who was a college mate of Oscar Wilde, and is now in decided need. Some years ago a physician settled at Roseburg, Or. His name wasDr. M. J. Mur- phy. He claimed to be a graduate of Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland, and to have been a surgeon in the Britishnavy. He proved to be a scholar and a learned doctor and achieved great success in his profession. Dissipation wrecked him at Rosebirg and for several years he has been a sad victim of alecohol. Drifting to Portland, he eked out a precarious living, writing scholarly editorials for s daily paper. Want and the disease of bad habits tempted him to ask helpin thestreets, for which he wasarrested and put in jail. While 1n jail for begging, a considerable fortune was awaiting him in County Louth, Ireland, left him by his | father, who had been an important county official for half a century. After being released from prison Dr. Murphy received a letter from Father Chabot, a priest at Rosebnrg, saying he had received a letter from Mrs. Murphy, the doctor's mother, asking the where- abouts of the son, and saying that his father, who had recently died, had left a considerable sum in cash, bonds and stocks. Father Chabot requested the doctor to write to him at once, as he de- sired to send a reply to Ireland. The first intimation Dr. Murphy had of the death of his father was in a copy ofan exchange which he had borrowed from a newspaper office here. The doctor was at college with Oscar Wilde, and remembers the British convict well. Several weeks ago he contributed a highly interesting article to alocal weekly, containing remi- niscences of Wilde's singing for Trinity students. Dr. Murphy is reticent about his wind- fall, and the story leaked out only through a prominent Catholic acquaintance of his, who saw the letter from Father Chabot, with whose bandwriting the gentleman is familiar. The doctor is eking outa poor existence, awaiting further returns from Father Chabot’s report to his motherin County Louth. CAPTURED AT LONG BEACH. A Notorious Kansas Embezzler Arrested After a Long Chase. PORTLAND, Or., Aug. 20.—A great sensation was created yesterday among the elite of Long Beach, Wash., a fashion- able seaside resort, when United States Marshal Grady arrested A. J. Lusk for em- bezzling $80,000. Lusk went to Long Beach recently a perfect stranger, but his suave manner of a well-bred man of the world soon won for him a popular social position. Two years ago, when Lusk was cashier of a National bank in Wichita, Kan., he, it is said, stole $80,000 in a lump sum. He had two confederates. The three men weve apprehended shortly after the theft, and the confederates are now servini terms in prison. Pending his trial, Lus] was released on bail and fled to San Fran- cisco. Since then, until last month, de- tectives all over the country had been look- ing for him. About the middle of July the detectives here scented his presence, beginning a search bigh and low for him. After coming here Lusk became infatu- ated with and made a confidant of the woman who within the past few days ex- osed him to the United States Marshal. usk does not deny being the man long sought for, but_regrets having confided in the woman. He will be brought here awaiting the pleasure of the Kansas authorities. DENOUNCED THE GOVERNMENT. A Portland Anarchist Landed in Jail by the Police. PORTLAXND, O=r., Aug. 20.—An anarch- ist named Abraham Isaac, an Austrian, scarcely two years in America, held forth toan immense crowd on the street last night. His bad English was of a very in- flammatory sort, denouncing not only this city’s government and police force, but also all American institutions. Two po- licemen came along, ordered the street, which was impassable, cleared. The ha- ranguer, however, ignored the order of the Eglice, and they had to snatch him off his x and arrested him on the charge of re- fusing to move on. No sooner was Isaac taken into custody than one of his colleagues mounted the box to continue the discourse. He held the position a few moments only, though as one of the officers made for him, and the fellow broke and ran away. In the Municipal Court Isaac declared he had a local foliowing of 100 men, who would be heard from. Portland’s Duelists Recovering. PORTLAND, Og., Aug. 20.—Drs. Aus- lund and Holmes, who on Friday last WOULD SEIZE HAVANA, Scheme Arranged to Collect Mora’s Claim by Force. WAS CLEVELAND’S PLAN. United States Vessels Assem- ble to Carry Out the Intention. A PRECEDENT IN NICARAGUA. Now That Spain Will Pay the Money No Hostlle Steps WIil Be Taken. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 20.—After many years of controversy, the claim of Maximo Mora, a naturalized American citizen, against the Government of Spain for the value of his sugar plantation in Cuba, has been amicably settled, or rather, practically so, for Spain has until Septem- ber 15 to make the payment. Spain’s final and positive agreement to pay at an early date was made some time ago, but since the Cabinet Council at Madrid committed the Government to that promise a diffi- culty arose through a further decision of the Council not to pay the interest on the claim, amounting to about $300,000. It was believed at the time that thisat- titude of the Cabinet would result in seri- ous difficulty between the United States and Spain. The patience of the Washings ton Government has been worn out through Spain’s constant policy of making promises and then failing to keep them. So seri- ously did this Government view the re- fusal {o pay the interest that a plan that might have involved the United States in war with Spain, but probably wouid not, was decided on by the President, Secretary Olney and Secretary Herbert. This was no less than an intention to seize Havana and hold that port until the Spanish Gov- ernment Jaid down the amount of the in- terest or the customs revenue amounting to the full interest had been collected at the Havana Custom-house by the United States officers, who would be placed in charge. The statement that this plan was practi- cally arranged is made on the best author- ity. Incoming to such a conclusion the administration found a precedent in the recent action of Great Britain in seizing the port of Corinto, Nicaragna, for the pur- pose of collecting indemnity claimed for subjects who had suffered at the hands of the Nicaraguan Government during the Mosquito troubles. Rear-Admiral Bunce, commanding the North Atlantic squedron now cruising in New England waters, was selected as the officer to command the expedition to Ha- vana, and his fleet was to consist of the New York, the Montgomery, the Raleigh and the Minneapolis, at present composing the squadron of evolution, the Cincinnati, now at Key West. Fla., and such other vessels as could be prepared for service on time. Itisstated in this connection that the evolutions which the strategic squad- ron is supposed to be practicing along the Atlantic coast are merely designed to sat- isfy curiosity as to the assemblage of such a Jarge number of vessels. There was little doubt in the minds of those who arranged the plan for the seizure of Havana that Spain would pay the in- demnity very quickly when she learned of the character of the persuasion to be em- ployed by this Government. The waiver | of Mora, however, with regard to the in- terest, obviates the necessity of carrying out the plan, which Spain, by prompt pay- ment, would probably not have allowed to ; proceed further than the receipt of an ul- | timatum that the interest must be paid or Havana would be seized. The 'agreement between Spain, the United States and Mora was arranged aiter repeated conferences between Secretary Olney, Senor Dupuy de Lome, the Span- ish Minister, and Mora’s attorney. Secretary Olney is at Falmouth and Senor de Loma is at Swampscott, and Massachusetts to sign the agreement. Mora waives all claim for interest, and Spain, represented by Senor de Lome, agrees to make the payment on September 15. The principal of the claim is $1,500,000, and it is to be paid in Spanish gold. When the agreement was made Mora asked that the money be paid to a representative of the United States or his attorney either in Washington or Madrid, but Senorde Lome insisted that it should be paid to Mora’s attorney by Martinez Campos, the Captain- General of Cuba, in Havana. This dispute could not be arranged and does not appear in the articles of agreement. SAN DIEU'S SENSATION, A Man Who Has Long Been Divorced Without His Knowledge. Sult Wil Be Brought to Set Aside the Decree Secured by Mrs. Houbert. SAN DIEGO, CaL., Aug. 20.—An intelli- gent man of middle age appeared in the County Clerk’s office to-day and asked per- mission to Jook at the papers in the di- vorce case of Houbert vs. Houbert, in which a decree was rendered on January 22, 1891. His request was granted, and the man sat at a desk for a long time over the judgment. Later he told about hiscon- nection with the case. “I am Houbert, the defendant in the action,” said he, “and, though the decree was granted over four yvears ago, this is the first positive information I have ob- tained that a divorce was granted to the woman who was my wife. I was married to her on October 24, 1876, in the East, but we lived here in San Diego a few years ago. We always got along well together. In 1890 I leit here for the State of Washington to take up a home- stead and intended to make a home for ourselves there.

C., Aug. 20.—The steam collier Kahului is ashore on Trail Island. Her bows are high up and her stern has about six feet freeboard at the top of the side. A large gang of men are going to jettison the cargo. The crew is safe. a professional nurse and made a good liv- ing for herselfand bad no children to look after. She was living in my own house at Front and Cedar streets, in this city, and T hnld rel:son to believe she was getting along all right. “fot it transpires I had hardly got out of sight before she began this action against me on the ground of desertion. She alleged in her complaint that I was nofi.fied,%mt the first I beard of it was two years ago in San Francisco, when I was on my way back here. An old friend told me Mora and his attorney were summoned to | then that my wife had procured a divorce from me over two years previously, and what was even more surprising had got married again _in a week to a man named Casey. That astounded me more than I can express, and since then I have wandered all over the coast except here. To think of her corresponding with me and accepting money for two years after getting a divorce and marrying again was more than I could stand. T spent all the money I could raise by selling the im- rrovemeuu on my homestead, and only ately made up m‘v’qmind to come down here and find sut about the proceedings. “Since arriving a week 2zo I have ascer- tained she has a child nearly 4 years old, and is living with her husband somewhere out by La Mesa—living, too, in my house.” In her complaint she alleged the house was_her separate property, and the court gave it to her. But it 1s mine. “What shall I do? Well, I intend to have the decree of divorce annulled. The whole complaint is untrue and reflects on me in an unwarranted manner. I only wish to have the decree annulled, and then she can go ahead as she pleases.” SAN DIEGANS AKOUSED. A Move to Place @ Tax Upon all Ocou- pations. SAN DIEGO, CAr., Aug. 20.—For some time past the City Council has been threat- ened with a deficit of funds.

I e NORTHERN PACIFIC TROUBLE. Answer of Receivers to the Ives Petition Filed at Seattle. BEATTLE, Wass., Aug. 20.—An answer of Thomas F. Oakes, Henry C. Payne and Henry C. Rouse, receivers of the Northern Pacific, to the motion and petition of the Northern Pacific Railroad Company for their removal was filed this afternoon in the office of the clerk of the Federal court. It is a yoluminous document and denies every allegation made in the petition for removal, and atfirms strongly that Judge Jenkins of the Eastern Wisconsin Judicial District had jurisdiction in the original case, as the property of the company is and was located therein. Stress is also laid upon the fact that at the time the original suit was brought counsel for the Northern Pacific admitted that the com- pany was bankrupt and consented to the appointment ot receivers. The hearing of the case will begin Thurs- day. o D FOUGHT WITH A BURGLAR. Midnight Duel With Revolvers in & Sac- ramento Residence. SACRAMENTO, Car., Aug. 20.—As William H.

Leeman grappled with the burglar, when | the latter drew a revolver and fired a shot athim. Leeman finally managed to se- cure the weapon and fired three shots at the burglar, who had managed to free him- self from Leemarn. None of the shots fired by either party took effect. The burglar secured Leeman’s overcoat and a quantity of silverware, which he threw away in his flight. Str gl Will Not Sink Oil Weiis.
