Tho men were William Reunion, Albert Burnscen and John Van Noino. They work for P. JIoAvdle, Albany, breaking up old engines, boiler, etc., and have the reputation of being desperate char acters. They climbed Up on the platform of tho buffet car, and commenced shouting and cursing, nnd' threw down their chisels, drawbars and sledges. Then they entered tho car and announced loudly that they proposed to "run this train." Uliief Detective Humphrey, ot the Central road, was in tho car' and heard tho declaration "Behavo yourselves," he at once said to them. Burnseen jumped at Humphrey ahd i tried to shove him out of the car, paying no attention to Humphrey's assertion that ho was an officer. Reardon also ad vanced on Humphrey, and the latter jerked himself awny from Burnseen and pulled his revolver. Some of the pas senger's quietly dropped down under tho seats. The sight of the revolver subdued tho men, and Humphrey joined his wlfo nnd child In a rear car. When the train got to Hudson tho conductor shouted to, Humphrey tocomo back. Humphrey found Reardon and Burnseen lying on ' tho floor, clinched and lunging at each other with knives. Reardon was on top. They were In tho centre of tho car, nnd the other passen gers were huddled at either cud watch ing the fight. Humphrey went up to them. When Reardon saw him he jumped "up nnd started for him with his knife upraised. "I'll cut your heart out!" he yelled, and tho passengers thought ho would. Humphrey grappled with bim and threw him on his back before ho had tin opportunity to use his knife. Then with the bell cord he bound the ruffian. The other two men were scared Into submission and Humphrey again re turned to his wife. Humphrey had not much more than seated himself when the conductor again appeared. Ho was accompanlad by sev eral passengers pale with fright. "He's cut himself loose," they cried, "nnd he's coming for you ngain." So ho had, and he had driven eight or ten men out of the. baggage car and was on his way toward Humphrey, flourish ing his knife and blaspheming. Humphrey started to meet him, revolv er in bund. But he did not need to use it. Ho caught Reardon and quickly overpowered him and took away tlie Kline, men ue sat on mm until tue train reached this city when all three men weio handed over to tho police and locked up.

London, Jan. 18. General disappoint ment was expressed when it became known that tho body of the Duke of Clarence and' Avondnle would not be brought to London, but would bo con veyed direct from Sandringham to St. George's Chapel, Windsor. This Is said to have been decided at tin instance of the Princess of Wales, who is opposed to having her son's funeral made tho occasion of a public parade through the streets of London. It Is also Intimated that persons near to roy alty feared that Socialists or others ol extremely radical sentiments might at tempt a demonstration that would shock tho already overstrained feolmgs of the royal family. It is said that tho police have been ap prehensive of this, and lu case of a Lon don general display the utmost precau tions would have been taken. Anxiety is again aroused as to tho Oueen's health by the news that she will not go to Windsor on the occasion of j tho Interment. The reasons assigned Is flint tl. ,.nrnl nhralelnns rnnslder thn that the royal pnysicians consiut-r tno weather too inclement for Her Majesty to lace the exposure of the weather ana tho ceremony in her present frame of mind. While the. Queen is officially de clared to be in good health, It is certain that her physicians are iu daily attend ance nnd are constantly consulted by those surrounding Iter as to her course of action. In most of tho churches and chapels yesterday reference was mado to tho dead Prince. Yesterday tho body of the Duke, en cased in a coflln made cf oak grown on his father's catate, was removed from Sandringham Hall to tho parish church, where It remains under guard. To-mor-vow evening it will be takeu to London via the Great Eastern Railroad. On its arrival at the Liverpool street station, it will bo placed upon a Eiin cnrrlnge and conducted to the Puddlngton station ot the Great Western Rnllway, escorted by tho Tenth Hussars, ot which the Duke was a Jlaior and his father Colonel. The Guards will line tho route. Civic and socinl bodies will follow from oue station to the other, after tho carriages of the Prince of Wals, the Duke ol Mlnourgn and Connaucht ana tno Loru jiayor. At Windsor military honors will be given. Tho Grenadiers will convey the remains to the Castle, and mounted cav alry will be on guard outside the Castle until the.gun from the tower announces that the funeral Is over on Wednesday.

INSULT ADDED TO INJURY. Commander Evans' " Dispatch Eefrardine the Ealmaoedan Refugees. lie Considers the Criticism of the Chilian Foreign Minister as Offensive nnd Un worthy the Keprosentutive of a Serious Government The Iteported Withdrawal of Malta's Impertinent Messnge Dis credited 111 Washington. ' Washington, Jnn 18. The programmo nnd work of Congress this week will de pend nlmost entirely on tho Chilian cor respondence. Within 21 hourt of Its receipt Congress may declare war. Nearly everything de pends on the tone of the President's let ter of transmittal, in which, it is pre sumed, he will embody some recom mendations. So patriotic Is the feeling among membt3 ot Congress that It is reasonable to suppose, that suggestions made by tho President will be promptly- endorsed by Congress. The correspondence, will, In its line of ordinary procedure, go to the Committee on Foreign Relntlons of the Senate and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of tho House, but the situation of nfliiirs has, It Is thought by many, nssumed such a grave aspect, that both Houses will prob ably take up tho correspondence nud givo It immediate consideration. The correspondence itself Is said to bo of such a nature thnt It will serve to fan the wur-llko name thnt has warmed up the patriotic feeling 01 Congressmen. A member of Congress who has assisted the President in preparing some of it is authority for the statement that tho Legislative branch of tho Government would declare war without delay upon bearing the correspondence read, without oven a suggestion from the President. The following dispatch was received by the secretary of the Navy last evening: "VALrAitAiso, Chili, Jan. lu, "Secretary of tho Navy, Washington: 'lhe American Minister informs mo thnt the Chillnn Minister of Foreign Affairs has chnnged bis mind about re fugees now on tho. lorktown, and that they may be taken out of any merchant vessel touching at a Chiliau port by local authority. "Arrun i -i"u(s lind been made for all of them to fn 1 10-day, but this change of base on tbe part of the Chilian Min ister of Foreign "Affairs compels me to keep them, which crowds mo very much. Shall I land them at Callao, Pern, or Molendo, Peruf No steamers from here go direct to neutral territory. "I his unexpected uct of the Chilian Minister of Foreign Affairs is due, ho states, in part to my saluting tho Spanish Minister when he came aboard to deliver two refugees, I have requested the. American Minister to say to the Minister I ot foreign Ailairs thnt I nm responsible to my own government, nnd not to that of Chili, iu such matters, nnd that I con sider his criticism offensive aud I will not accept it. His action seems unworthy of the representative ot u serious govern ment. Evans." The repeated statement In Valparaiso dispatches that Minister Montt has been instructed by President Montt to with draw the offensive circular note of Senor Mntta finds no credence here. Tho per sistence ot this statement is supposed here to be inspired by the Chilian Gov ernment for the purpose of Influencing public opinion in tills country. It is to be presumed that if Senor Montt bad re ceived any such instructions he would not delay, but would rather hasten to mnko them known to Secretary Blaine and the President. Certainly this Gov ernment has no knowledge either official or unofficial of any intention on tho part of Chill to retreat from its insulting atti tude, to say nothing of granting the apology and indemnity which have been demanded by tho United btates.
