Lined l'p Passenger With lined
Above Their Heads, Stole Horse
nd Fled Robbery Occurred Only
Few Miles Distant from Old
Faithful Inn.
Butte, Mont., Aug. 16. One slen
der, stoop-shouldered highwayman,
Whose mild blue eyes twinkled
through a black mask that partially
hid his peaked features, held up sev
en stage coaches, one after the other
In Yellowstone Park, only a few
miles from the Old Faithful Inn.
He garnered $6,000 In clean cash
from the passengers he lined up from
aeh coach. Then the small bandit,
who weighed little more than a
twelve-year-old boy capped the cli
max of his exploits by stealing one of
the horses of the transportation com
pany and on It made his escape.
The coaches held up left the Inn
in the usual order and only a few
minutes apart.
None of the tourists In the Yellow,
stone are allowed to carry weapons
of any kind, and hence they were to
tally unprepared for what followed.
The bandit waited at a bend of
tne road. When the first roach
came into sight the small bandit was
planted in the very centre of the
dnsty trail. In his hands he held
two big Colt's revolvers. And the
driver pulled the horses to their
Staunches. He descended at the ban
dit's command and stood nt the
nones' heads.
Then the passengers were In
structed to come forth and they lost
no time In doing It. They lined up
on the road and held their hands
above their heads. The highwayman
thrust one pistol Into its hostler, and
holding the other handy, used his
loft hand to take from the passengers
thotr watches, Jewelry and money.
3o reached up to take diamond rings
from the fingers of the women.
He went through the entire col
lection with amazing celerity, and
the driver was on his way with
ils frightened passengers before the
aezt coach came into view.
It was after the seventh coach had
been robbed that the highwayman
made his escape Into the hill:'. Thin
voach Instead of continuing on its
way returned to Old Falt'.iful Inn
and gave the alarm.

near relative. He was once an In
mate of an Insane asylum. On ft
dresser In the barricaded room was
a note written on the green wrap
ping paper that had covered the re
volver and cartridges that Mr. Phelps
carried to the hotel In his hand. It
read as follows.
My name Is J. O. Phelps of Syra
cuse. I have done this because I did
not dare to live. Still I believe Christ
died for me, the uttermost man.
That was all. The paper hnd been
folded with the writing in view and
Phelps's fountain pen was lying
across it.
He was 54 years old. a native of
Martinsburg, N. Y., and was gradu
ated from Syracuse University In

BROWN & CO., WALL
STREET FIRM, FAILS.
Had Many Branches In New York
and Other Cities.
New York, N. Y., Aug. 27. The
brokerage firm of A. O. Brown &
Co., which tried to throw the stock
market into a whirlwind of confus
ion Saturday by trading 1,500,000
shares, and which, since the passing
of John W. Gates' firm, has been the
biggest speculative concern connect
ed with the Stock Exchange, has
gone to the wall.
When all the facts underlying the
crash come to the surface, it is ex
pected that stock exchange gambling
will he In greater disrepute than
ever.
A member of the firm said that its
affairs were so badly tangled that It
was impossible to give an estimate of
Its liabilities, but from the fact that
it had delivered only 27,000 shares
out of a total of 750,04)0 traded In
on Saturday, it was estimated that
it owed at least $2,500,000.
In consequence of their many rami
ncatlons and the enormous business
done the effect of the firm's failure
is widespread.

A New Hearing Asked In
Case Assessing Standard
Oil $29,240,000.
LANDIS IS DEFENDED
Five Grounds Upon Which a Rehear.
Ing of the $20,000,000 Fine Case
Is Asked Penalty Declared Not
Excessive Grosscup Is Quoted
Against Himself.
Chicago, Aug. 26. The Govern
ment filed Its petition for a rehearing
or the Standard Oil case. The Court
o. Appeals Is requested to reconsider
the reversal by Judges Orosscup,
Baker and Seaman of the (29,240,000
line Imposed upon the Indiana cor
poration by Judge K. M. Landls and
to ask the advice of the Supreme
Court of the United States on certain
vital questions at Issue.
Although the petition preserves the
form of .egal courtesy, the criticism
Is Just as marked as was the com
ment of President Roosevelt, who
characterized Judge Grosscup's decis
ion as "a gross miscarriage of Jus
tice." I'he petition upon live grounds
defends Judge Landto and declares
that if the Grosscup decision Is al
lowed to stand It will nullify all the
efforts of the Government for the
past twenty years to punish the re
bating criminals.
The document charges the Judges
with injustice to Judge Landls and
accuses them of misstatement, of the
latter's position and the facts on
record in the case.
It bears the signature of Attorney
General Charles J. Bonaparte, Frank
B. Kellogg, Special Assistant District
Attorney Edwin W. Sims, who pros
ecuted the case, and Special Assist
ant J. H. Wilkerson. The Govern
ment asserts tnat the criticism of
Judge Landls by the Appellate
Judges and their reasons for revers
ing the ruling are based upon mis
statements of the records and mis
interpretations of his rendering of
tne law. "The opinion an it stands,"
the Government's petition concludes,
"erroneously state material portions
of the record; does Injustice to the
trial Judge; leaves doubtful in a new
trial the rule of the law to be applied
both as to knowlege on the part of
the shipper and as to the number of
offences; appears to be In conflict
with the language of the Supreme
Court and with the previous lan
guage of the presiding Judge of this
court, with the great weight of leg
al authority; and if permitted to re
main unmodified will tend to encour
age disobedience to law, to impose
the enforcement of salutary statutes
and largely to defeat their purpose."

Philadelphia, Aug. 26. An epi

Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 27
There was a large outpouring of In
diana Democrats to greet Mr. Bryan
nnd do honor to John W. Kern, on
the occasion of the formal notifica
tion of his selection for second
place on the Democratic Nr.tlonal
ticket, and the exercises passed off
without a hitch. Mr. Bryan was of
course, the lion of the occasion, and
held a reception at which more than
5.000 persons, many of them women,
shook his hand and expressed a hope
for his election.
The notification exercises took pla-e
at the Coliseum at tho State I'.ilr
Grounds, where 15,000 persons were
gathered. The notification speech
was made by Theodore E. Bell, of
California, rhalrmnn of the commit

G; t ;:i V. Fitzgerald Locked 1 p
Year nnd n llulf After My,
tcrlous Kolihery.
('Monro. Aug. 26. George .
Fitzgerald was arrested at his lump
on a charge of stealing $173,noo
from tho Chicago Sub-Treasury.
The great Sub-Treasury robbery
for nearly two yenrs has mystified
the keenest, detectives of the Govern
tnent. Secret Service.
The warrant was sworn out at
midnight before Judge Arthur M.
Chetlaln by Herbert F. Young, gi.n.
oral manager of tho Young Secret
Service Company. The detective
manager noted under Instructions
from Assistant Treasurer Wlllinm
Doldenwelek, In ehnrgo of the Oil
cago Sub-Treasury.
Detective Joseph Kinder of State
Attorney Healy's olllce and Detective
Young made the rnpture.
Flzgerald took his arrest with coM
composure. He was bundled Into nn
automobile and taken to the nfT.eeii
of the Young Secret Service Com
pany. There he was sweated for
two hours. He was taken to t
county Jail at 2 o'clock a. in., a;n
then was turned over to the Federal
authorities.
Fitzgerald was assorting teller in
the Sub-Treasury w hen the big nlinrt.
Ago was discovered. Suspicion was
pointed to him from the first and he
was kept under close surveillance.
He convinced the Government offic
ials that he had nothing to do with
tne theft. After a few weeks
espionage over him was withdrawn.
Suspicion veered back to Fitzger
ald early last July, when he offered
to roll a $1,000 bill to Col. Harry C.
Guyno, superintendent of A. Booth
fc Co., for $500. Col. Gayno noti
fied Assistant United States Treasur
er William Boldenwoek. The assist
ant treasurer, from whose vaults in
tho Sub-Treasury tho $173, ono had
disappeared, engaged the Young Se
cret Service Company to shadow
Fitzgerald.
Detectives of this agency learned
that Fitzgerald recently had Invest
ed $30,000 In a speculation In eggs.
They learned that In July, 1907, five
months after tho robbery, he had
bought a handsome residence In Rog
ers Park for $9,000. They could not
reconcile these things with Fltr.ger
ald's former salary of $1,800 as as
sorting teller In tho Sub-Treasury or
of solicitor for a fire company, which
Is bis business now.
