Three Bad Train Wrecks Rebellion In Southern France Legislature to Adjourn Wednesday Telegraphers Strike Haywood ' Murder Trial. Robbery a Dangerous Trade. . The confession of Chris Schang, a 19-year-old prisoner at the Jail In Mlncola, L. I., will prove, the police believe, the undoing of the gang of burglars which for six months has ter rorized the wealthy colonics of Nas sau and Suffolk counties. According to Schung the series of burglurlcs was conducted In a sys tematic business-like way with start llngly successful results. Schang told the district attorney that the pro ceeds of the robberies were taken to a Frecport hotel, which was the head quarters of the gang, and from there shipped to New York. , In describing the methods employed he said that when he and his two ac complices entered a house they woi.iJ Invariably squirt ether through the key holes of the bed rooms in which porsons were sleeping, so that the oc cupants might be affected by the funics, and the robbers could conduct their operations without being dis turbed. After carrying their plunder from a house, he declared they would bury It in sonio convenient place, and rcturu thu next night, dig It up and take It to the hotel. , Rebellion In Southern France. By a majority of 104 the chamber of deputies at Paris on Friday voted confidence In the government and gave the ministers free honds to em ploy the measures they think best to re-establish the sovereignty of the law In tho disturbed departments of the south. This came after a day of intense excitement over the mutinous move ment of troops 'In the Midi, following widespread disorders by the wine growers. Premier Clemenceau lost no time in Imparting to the deputies the news from Nurboiine, adding to the Inform ation already published the fact that over 100 soldiers were wounded In the lighting Thursday with the rioters. The latter, he said, had disappeared from the streets. The peasants from tho surrounding villages, terrified at the shooting, took the first trains for their homes. Some of the more prominent mem bers of the opposition appeared to place the interests of the country above those of their party and held up the hands of the government, be ing desirous' of giving the latter time enough to bring the delinquents in the south to account. After six hours' debate the cham ber generally adopted this view and by 327 to 223 votes decided to support the cabinet. Legislature Adjourns Wednesday. The legislature will adjourn with' out date next Wednesday at 2 p. m Whether It will meet aiagnalmos a..

The caucus obli gation upon each Republican member of each house to support these bills, and these only, expires with the re? ulur session and the whole matter can be taken up comparatively afresh.

"There is no crime In America so a.ardous as 'hold-up' robbery. Over two-thirds of those who have engaged In It have eventually either been kill ed outright while operating or resist ing arrest, lynched by jiosses or what Is known as 'died with their boots on.' "Those at large are constantly In fear of arrest, living secluded lives and risking no chances of discovery by communicating with friends." The Fisheries Dispute.

If State Allows a Pension For Service In Civil War All Veterans Should Participate If Civil Service Pen sion Is Intended It Should Not Be Limited to Veterans. Albany, June 25. Governor Hughes sent to the assembly last night his veto of the veterans' pension bill of Assemblyman Burns, passed by the senate on Decoration day, and then described by Senator Owens as "a, tribute to the boys in blue." The governor says of the bill: 'This bill provides for a pension for every soldier, sailor or marine honorably discharged from the army or navy of the United States In the late civil war, who served therein at least SO days, and who has been em ployed for a continuous period of 15 years or more in the civil or military service of the state, or of any city, county, town or village thereof, upon reaching the age of G5 years, and be coming Incapacitated' for performing the duties of his employment. "Apart from the question of the ad visability of establishing a system of pensions either for the veterans of the civil war or for those who have rendered service to the state, this bill 1b clearly objectionable. It Is Just to neither class and Involves an inde fensible discrimination. 'If the state were to allow pensions upon the ground of service In the civil war, there is no reason why the bene fit should be limited to those veterans who have been employed by the state or by a municipality. On the other hand, if a civil service pension were to be established, there is no reason why the benefit should be limited to veterans and other civil servants should be debarred."

East Liverpool, O., June 25. It Is possible an effort will be made by lo cal liquor Interests, backed by the powerful state 'organization, to have the courts declare void the local op tion election here Saturday. It is stated the matter is under advisement and a decision will be announced within the next few days. The tem perance people who won the battle do not fear there is anything in the law which will snatch from their hands the victory for which they fought Bince the days when Francis Murphy won to his cause some of the best men in the city. The law provides for an election within 30 days after the required peti tion Is filed. Because of a technical ity, well understood. and carefully con sidered by the attorneys for the tem perance organization, the' date was changed; but it is contended that such a change is within the meaning of the law. If the contest is made it will be carried to the highest courta. The results of the election are far reaching. East Liverpool Is the cen ter of a prosperous manufacturing district. On the east Ohio township In Beaver county, Pa., has no saloon, and on the West Virginia side of the Ohio river there has been local option for many years. Wellsville, three miles west on tho Ohio side, Is to vote en the question of saloons today, and If It, too, goeB dry and the law Is enforced there will bo no point on the Ohio between Rochester, Pa., and To ronto, O., where it will bo possible to buy a drink. If the saloons are to leave East Liverpool it will have a material bearing on the finances of the city. They number 73, and each Is subject to a tax of $1,000 a year. During the two years local option Is to prevail that will mean a loss of $140,000 In public revenue, more than enough to pay the salaries of all the officers and employes of the city. It will deprive more than 200 bartenders and saloon proprietors of employment and will leave vacant many business houses In the best parts of the city. The two breweries will be hard hit, and the wholesalers will have difficulty in carrying on their business. MAY BE CARNEGIE'S RIVAL.
