ALt WOODFORD'S 1 AMUUS MNOTE, It Mevely Offcred ihe Good Uffices of the United states. CHICAGO, IrL., Oct. 1.—A Washington special to the Times-Herald says: It is now possible for the Times-Herald to zive not the exacttextof ihe famous W odford | note to Spain, but a fair statement of its | substance. This now celebrated and much-dis- | cussed document simply expresses on the | partof the United States the hope that the war wiil be brought to a close as speedily as possible, but there is no date fixed when the zonsummation is to be reached, and thta the interests of Spain, no less than tne inierests ot the United States, the interests of humanity and the interests of -the world at large, are reasons why the war should be ended with the { least possible delay. And with that in view, acting as a friend of Spain, because of the great stake which the United States has in Cuba, finarcially and otherwise, because of the annoyance to which the United States has been put by maintaining a patrol over and preventing the sailing of filibuster: ing expeditions and because civilization opposes war, the United States tenders to Spain its good offices 10 act as a friend between the mother country and her re- bellious colony, in the hope that she may be abte to effect a settiement and bring the warfare to a close. Thisis a1l thereis in the note. There is not the faintest suggestion of this Gov- ernmient forcing upon Spain her good offices it she does not care to voluntarily accepi them, nor is there an intimation that the war must be brought to an end within a certain time or that Spain must answer this note within a fixed time. Caiys o Sagasta Ls Wilting. MADRID, Spary, Oct. 1.—Senor Sagasta says he is wiling to undertake the con- struction of a Cabinet, and it is hoped that the crisis will be solvel to-morrow.

A BOLD ATTACK AT MID-DAY. An Ear Shot Off a Victim for Showing Signs of Com-~ bativeness. EXPRESS SAFE DYNAMITE. RESISTS The Outlaws Take to the Prairle, With a Posse In Hopeless Pursult. EL RENO; O. T., Oct. 1. — Bandits robbed the southbound Rock Island train and all its passangers at 11 o’clock this forenoon at siding No. 1, about five miles south of Minco, in the Indian Territory. The railroad and express officials have feared a holdup in that section for several weeks, and armed guards have been put aboard all night trains at El Reno and carried through to Chickasaw, but it had not teen thought that the outlaws would be bold enough to attack a train in mid- day. This morning the trainmen were com- pletely surprised and they were not pre- pared to offer any resistance when five masked men came upon them at the ionely siding. The place is uninhabited and ihe only personsina the vicinity at the time were four section men, These section men flagged the train, the robbers having compelled them to do so. The bandits were hidden at thetime in & brushpile, and jumped out as soon as ! the passenger train had raken the siding. Under the pressure of Winchesters and ugly looking sixshooters the trainmen, express messenger and all of the score or more of passengers were made to climb down from the train and stand in a line, hands up, on the prairie along the rail- way. While three of the robbers covered the badly frightened crowd with their guns, ihe other two coolly and carefully robbe . them, passing irom one passenger to an- other down the line. The bandits secured about $300 1n cash and such other valu- ables in the way of watches, pins and jewe ry as were in sight. The few women passengers were not compelled 16 zive up their valuables, and Rev. Mr. Roe, one of the passengers, who was sick, was not compeiled to leave the coach. Jim Wrigbt of Minco showed a disposi- tion to resist- when the bandits ordered “hands up,”’ and they shot one of his ears oft to prove to his satisfaction that his bravery was ill advised. Wright’s hands then went up. - No one else was injured. The passengers and trainmen having been tnorouguly plucked, three of the bandits turned their attention to the ex- press and mail coaches, the others stand- ing guard over the hapiess crowd on tie prairie. Theregistered mail pouches were quickly rifled, but the through safe in the express car resisted all the force and in- genuity of the road agents. ‘When the messenger had convinced the bandits that he could not open the sirong box, they resorted to dynamite. Several heavy cbarges were exploded, but the safe proved bandit-proof, and though it was badly battered, its contents were saved to the express company. Having taken forcible possession of everything they could carry away, the bandits mounted tbeir horses and rode off toward the west. Assoon as the trainmen could collect their wits. they got their scared passen- gers aboard and hurried on to ths next station - south—Chickasaw—from which voint the railroad officials were notified of the holdup. At Chickasa a posse of citizens was hur- riedly formed. These citizens set outin pursuit of the gang and officers have been dispatched from El Reno and other points in this section, but it is hardly possitle that the bandits can be overtaken in the prairie ocountry, and they will probably be able to reach the Wichita Mountains to the west of the scene of the hold-up. Officers here believe the gang to be the me one that heid up Santa Fe trains at Edmunds twice during the last month. gy A JOB PLANMED FOR 10-DAY.

PLAINT OF THE | RICH AND POOR ENCYGLICAL OF JILTED SUITOR Melcher Tells His Sad Story on the Witness- Stand. Suffered From the Mrs. Irony of Had'ey’s Rich Relatives. Spicy Letters and Sensatlonal Tes~- timony Given In the Breach of Promise Case. LEWISTOWN, ME, O:t. 1.—The plain. tiff rested in the Meicher-Hadley breach of promise trial after a spicy session. The plaintiff was cross-examined under heavy fire, the defense trving to show that quarrels broke off the engagement, but failing o do so by his testimony. The defense opened with Mrs. Dingley, mother of Mrs. Haaley, on the stana. It was washday in the Dingley housebold, and the soiled linen that nas been in the “wash bag” for some time was displayed to the public gaze. Beside her counsel, John A. Morrill, sat the defendant, Mrs. Louise Dingley Hadlev of San Diege, who is alleged to have so lacerated the heart- strings of the sforesaid plaintiff, Melcher. Mrs. Hadley looked as bright as a dollar, and wore that air of conhdence which is o characteristic of the Dingley family, which she represents. She is & very noticeable woman, and was arrayed plainly but effectively. Her costume consisted of a dark blue skirt and black satin shirt waist, a leather belt with silver buckle, a close-fitting, nobby-looking hat trimmed with purple, 1an gloves and patent-leather shoes. Papa Dingley, who sat on one side of bis daugh- ter, Louise, was arrayed in a Prince Al- bert, and Mamma Dingley, who sat on the other side, wore an elezant gown of brocaded heavy material witb a dainty bonnet to match. Both ladies carried fans, which they waved vigorously. Few people knew before Judge Wing in- formed the jury thatthe defendant, Louise Dingley Hadley, was so clcsely connected with the fami y of Congressman Dingley. Her father is the Congressman’s own uncie ana her mother is a sister to the wife of Congressman Dingley, making her a double cousin in the family of the knight of the tariff. Her father is the wealthiest man in- Auburn anda her con- nections are prominent people soeially, politically and in business circles. Mrs. Dingiey Hadley did not seem to mind the reading of her letters in the least, but bher father, Hon. Jeremiah, was not particularly elated over such effusions of love and affection. When a particularly Iarge-sized Lunch of love was served up, with all the aitendant embel- lishments, Mr. Dingley would cast a re- proving glance st Louise and then his eye would wander around to his wife in search of a ray of comfort, out his better halt wore the same determined look irom morning tiil nigbt. Some of the testimony of tha jilted suitor would be smazing weré it not so painful, Hesaidz “Walking along the street people would say, ‘There yoes Melcher, who got jilted,’ Often I nave seen ladies turn around ana laugh, Atone tme I was standing in the store door and Mr. and Mrs. Dingley were out driving. Mrs. Dingley made some remark 10 Mr. D.ngiey and both commenced to laugh.” Here follows socme of his most startling statements: “‘Had ber parents given you the key to her house 2"’ “Mrs. Dingley gave me n key and told me to take it and come in and out when I liked.” What attention did you give the de- fendant at ner requests during her ill- ness?'”’ “'1 was there a good deal and . assisted in moving her on the bed. Her mother sent for me one moruing-at 3 o clock.” Miss Dingley proposed marriage to him, asked him if they could not. be pledged, and he said he was a poor man aud 1f he should marry her people would say that it was for her monéy, and he did not want that said, She replhed that she did not care about that, for sne loved him; that she had other cnances and that she would throw them over. UN.OY PACIFIC FORECLOSURE. Sale 1st of Kovember—Question of the Great failroad Bridge at Cmabha. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. L.—A special from Washington to the Herald says that Presidgent McK:nley and Attorney-Gen- eral McKenna devoted an hour after the meeting of the Cabinet to a discussion of the proposed foreclosure sale of the Union Pacific Railroad. All the officials are very reticent as to what is being done, and about the only thing that can be learned or said with cer- tainty is tbat the foreclosure sale will take piace November L. Authoritles are giving out the impres- sion that in some manner the Govern- ment is to get from $4,000,000 1o $5,000,000 more out of the 'ransaction than it would nave received under the original proposi- tion of the reorgunization syndicate, A member of the Cabinet intimated to me that the new condition insisted upon by the admiuistration amounted practi- cally to an increzse in the bid gusranteed by the syndicate. A svnopsis of the advertisement pub- lished in Omahba and telegraphed East shows that the bonds in the sinking fund are to be put up at auction, and the mini- mum bid which is to bs received is placed at $13,645,250, which is the face value of the bonds. The public debt statement, issued to- day, shows §4.537,21653 in cash in the sinking fund. It may Le that the disposi- tion oi this cash bas something to do with the increased amount the Goverament is to receive. There is <come question as to the value of the bonds in_tue sinking .fund. Some of them are Usion Pacific bonds, on which interest has not been paid and which are worth less than par.. Others are United States bunds, worth more than ar. pThe sinking fund and its disposition was one of the guestions discussed by the Attorney-General and the President. It is understood the reorganization syn- dicate wisbes 10_extend these payments over a much longértime than the Govern- ment is willing to agree.to. > - Another gnestion which may ‘affect the amount of 1be bid is as to whether or not the Omaka briageis beingincluded in the. property sold.

Continued Increase of Cases, but the Death Rale Is Still Low. Bitter Fight Against the Health Board for Insisting on Rigla Quarantina. NEW ORLEANS,, Oct. L—To-day was again something of a record breaker in the matter of new cases. They cropped upin all directions, but up 106 o'ciock the death record was still low. The fever is rapidly spreading in many directions, but the large majority of cases are proving to be of a harmless type. The weather is warm and the conditions excellent for new cases, but the death per- centage has fallen considerably below the record of 1878.- Twenty-five new cases were reportea to-day and the death of Antonio Sinacoa of Paul S.. Phillip. Among the new cases 1s that of Dr. Beverly Warner, pastorof the rich Trinity Church. His case is a mild one. Rich and poor alike have been stricken to-day, and the reporis 1o the Board of Health seem to show that the best-drained and best-kept streets are presenting cases as numerously as those which are minus sanitation. The authorities continue to keep the waterworks open and every gutter is filled with running water. A number of cases, some ten or more, were di-charged to-day as cured. A bitier fight is being made on the Board of Health because of its insisting on quarantining inmates of houses in which yellow fever exists and those houses which immediately adjoin. Dr. Guiteras, having expressed the opin- fon that it is possible to confine the infec- tion within the room where the patient | may be lying, has strengthened the figut of the public against guarantine meas- ures. In spite of the storm of protesis, however, many eminent physicians and professionai men are urging the board to eontinue its present course in quarantin. ing houses. The crisis is either here now or close at hand, and it is not sonsidered wise, no matter what may be the public indigna- tion, to jeopardize the Leaith of the whole community by allowing people in infected houses or living next door to them to go at random. The fever here has, of course, not beende- clured epidemc, and jor that reason phy- siciuns are disiuclined to report yellow fever. . ‘A number of doctors said to-night in a formal protest that if their names are | reported in connection with vellow fever cases their practice would suffer. Nobody would send for them if they huve any- thing to do with yellow fever cases. e IN MOBILE’'S PUOOK QUARTER. Caryied by a Guard From the Distriot First Infeetrd. MOBILE, Ava, Oct. 1.—The increase in the number of cases continues slow, there being but seven cases reported to- day and one death, that of Mrs. A. Hoff- man, on Savannah street, near Jeffer- son. The disease has appeared in the north- west part of the town, where many of the poorer people dwell, a man who was a guard in the district first infected having carried the scourge to his home. Thus are established two additional foci of infection. - The Commercial Club h: calied a meeting of citizens for to-morrow to form a relief committee to assist people thrown out of employment, There is much private charity at work, Mayor Bush leading, having empowered the Chicf of Police to relieve every sufferer that applies for aid, but there are many persons who will not apply or who .are 1gnorant of the help that is available, A suspicious case is reporfed to-night in the heart of the city. G. F. Stiner, a keeper of the Delicatessen restaurant, liv- ing 0 Si, Emanuel street, near Dauphin. Dr. Edwards, at St. Eimo, rwenty miles south of Mobile, on the Louisvilie ana Nashville Railroad, reporis four suspi- cious cases which he diagnosed as yeliow fever. A suspicious case is reported at Grand Bay, on the same line. Health Officers bave gone to investigate. The Mobile Board of Health bas issned orders that no person shall move out of the infected districts into another part of the city. It ‘is sought to vrevent cject- ment for non-payment of rent. e ORDERED TO RUKN THE MAIL. Figorous Action cf the Town Counoil of Kusion, La. WASHINGTON, D: C., Oct. 1L.—Post- master Fiourney of Ruston, La., has tele- grapnhed to the Pos office Department that the Town Council there has commanded him to burn all local newspapers and mail received from the yellow fever dis- tnet. Their orders are based on the failure of the great bulk of such matter to show any trace of fumigation, the wrappers not being perforated. Assistant Postmaster - General Heath relegraphed him to-day tbat if newspaper mail is refused he should destroy it with- out expense to tne department, under anthority of section 558 of the posial laws, waiving the thirty davs. —_— CALIFORNIA'S PREECa UT10NS, Will Establish a Quarantine Station on the Sunvet Kowte, LOS ANGELES, Car, Oct.

October, the Month of Frults, Is Selected as a Most Appro= priate Period. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 1.—The New York Freeman’s Journal will publish to- morrow a translation of Pope Leo XI1I's most recent encyclical, of which the tol- lowing is an abstract: To our venerable brothers and patriarchs primates, archoishops and other ordinarieg jp eelce and communion with the aposiolic gee: Venerable brothers, heaith and apostolic pen- ediction. How important isit, both for public und private interestesis, thatdevotions tothe most august Virgin Mary should be maintainea as- siduously and spread with ever growing zeal will be understood by everybody who reflects on the eminent position of honor and glory in which Goa has placed Mary. From all eternity he chose her to become mother of the One who was to clothe himself in buman flesh. Ou the approach of the month of October we were unwiliing, venerable brothers, to fail to Write 10 You again this year. With our utmost ardor we exhort each one of you snew 1o merit grace for yourselyes and jor the church militant by the recital of the rosery. This species of prayer seems, in the providence of God, to have ' taken on a marvelous growth at the end of this century in order that by its means the flagging piety «f the faithful might bestimulated, as witness those temples, those noted and renowned shrines consecrated to the s « of the Mother of God. In the month of May we offered flowers to this divine mother, and now we would that October, the montn of frults, be employed by all to honor her with a special devotion, Catholics are wout to establish, under meni- fold forms, those salutary socieiles of which we speak. Such are clubs, rural bands, gath- erings held on feast days ior the recreation of the mind, patronages of youth, confraternities nng many other unions founded for excellent ends. In the course of time they were confirmed by law, cistinguished by insignia, endowed with privile dcvoted 1o service in the courches, cousecrated to the wants of soul ; they received different names at different epochs. Amid these groupings we have no hesita- tion in assigoing the place of honor to the confraternity known as that of the Most Holy Rosary, for, considered in its origin, it is dis- tuguished above all similar insiitutions by its antiquity, since it has nad for its tfounaer Dominje himself. Taking account of its privileges 1t has, thauks 10 the munificence of our predecessors, obtained them in e largest possible num- bers. The form and, sothey say, the soul of this instizution is tuc rosary of Mary. The power and efficacy of this same rosary, regerdsd as an obiigation imposed on the members of the couirateruity to which it has given its name, are especially important. Stimulated by the example of our prede- cessors, we, 100, veaerable brothers, exhort and enconrage you, as we have ofien before done, to cherish’ Wwitn espec al - soiici- tude’ this ssered host in such wise that it may, thanks to your efforte, seea daily increas: of ff ctive membership enrolled under iis standard; that by your concuirence and thatof those of the clergy under your charge to whom the care of sou:s is chiefly entrusied, the mass of the peopls may arrive ata true knowledge and apprecia- tion of the virtues of this assoctation and of its utility for the eternal sa.vation of man. We urge this the mor: earaestly since, within quite recent times, there has been a re- blossqming of one of thos: forms ol devotion to the mother 0f God in the rosary—the *per- petunl rosa We heartiiy bless this institution and ear- nestly desiré you to concentrate your zeal and activity 10 its increase. We enteriain a most lively hope that the prayers ol the rosary will prove most power- Tal. When issuing from the lips and hearts of a great multitude, they o ou unceasingly, and when day and night alternate in the different regions of the globe the continuous concert of prayeriul voicesrises in harmony with medita- tion on divine things. And now, as a pleage of beavenly favor and in testimony of our paternal love, we grant the apostolic benediction most sffectionately in the Lord 1o yourselves, venerable brothers, to your clergy wnd to li people confided 10 your faith and vigilance. GERMANY W+1CHING SAMOA, Btrenuowsly Objects to Occupation by the United dtates. BERLIN, GerMaNy, Oct. 1.—The offi- cials of the United States Embassy and of the United States Consu'ate here say there is no truth in the story contained in aaispatch from Berlin to the London Daily Chronicle saying that President McKinley had instructed the new United States Consul-General at Berlin (in the ab- sence of Embassador White, who bas been spending a fortnight at Heringsdorf), to give an opinion as to the alteration of the Samoan treaty, and that it was believed that the United States intended to invite a new conference on the subject. It was added that Germa ain to object strenuously to any weakening of her hola on Samoa, and that the complete cession of tie group of islands to Great Britain would meet with far more support in Ber- lin than would American occupation of trose islanas. The Vossische Zeitung expres-es the opinion that S8amoz ought to become Ger- man, as two-thirds of the land is owned by Germans. The Vossische Zeitung also says: The existing treaty must be abol- ished and ordaer re-established. Other newspapers express similar views on the subject.

TOPICS BEFORE THE GABINET Foreign Affairs Fully Discussed by McKinley and Advisers. Government’s Ces> Against the Union Pacific Also Considered. Considerable A:tention Devoted to Hawail and the Czblnet Crisls in Spain, WABHINGTON, D. ¢, Oct. 1L.—The first meeting of the Cabinet since the re- turn of the President from Massachusetts was held to-day and was attended by every member except Secretary Gage, who is not in Washington. The meeting lasted longer than usual, in explanation of which fact it 18 said that several Cabinet mem- bers were present for the first time in many weeks and naturaily thought it an opportunity to inform themselves fully upon the condition of affairs on their re- turn. The foreign affairs occupied the greater portion of the time given up to discussion, though prosecution of the Government’s case against the Union Pa- cific Railroad Company also came in for a good deal ot consideration. Indeed, it is said that the only action of the Cabinet to-day was in the interest of closing this issue, and it can be siated that the aetails of the plan of the Guvernment have been arranged at last. The Spanish erisis attracted much ate tention and was discussed at some length, For some reason Minister Woodford has still left his Government officially unad- vised of the recent happenings in Madrid, and nothing has been beard from him since his interview with the Duke of Tetuan, the Svanish M:nister for Foreign Affairs in the last Cabinet. This fact com- pelied a reliance upon the newspaper re- ports of the recent important events ia Spain. - It may be said that there seems to bea general belief among the members of the President’s official family that the Madrid crisis, if not making for our good, cannot be expected to injure our reiations with Spain. This beliel is based upon the idea that 1f a Conservaiive Uabinet succeeds the Azcarraga Ministry the worst that can happer wiil be a continuation of the pres- ent line of policy, for Spain 18 t0o near an end of her financial resources to put forth more sirenuous efforts to subdue the Cubans. O=n the other hand it is believed thata Liberal Minisiry will almost cer- tainiy offer a good opportunity for bring- 1ng the present war to.an end. The conditions of Hawaii as revealed to Aamiral Beardsiee were talked of, and with evident satisfaction the Cabinet re- ceived the admiral’s statement thatin all his stay in Hawaiian waters his relations with the Japanese officials on shore and on the cruiser Naniwa were of the most pleasant pature. In no case had there been the slightest exhibition of a purpose on the part of Japanese commanders to attempt any coup, and there were con- stant exchanges of visits between the officers of the Naniwa and of the United States warshiy.
