Mobile, Ala., Sept. 26.—The Mobile and Ohio southbound mail and passenger train was boarded by thieves at B ue ka tunna, M iss., seventeen miles north of this city. As the train was leaving that station two men mounted behind the tender and crawled over into the cab of the locomotive. There they covered Engineer Jack Therrel and Fireman Hust with their revolvers. The robbers, who were well masked, ordered the engineer to stop the train at the bridge, two miles south of Buckatunna creek. This order was given at the point jt a revolver, and the engineer was compelled to obey it. Arriving at the bridge the engineer and were ordered to detach tho mail and express car from the balance of the train and to pull these two cars across the bridge away from tho other Batteries: G tzieu and McGeachy, Russie and Daily; Keefe, Craueaud Ewiug. Saratoga Springs, N. Y., Sept. 26.—In spite of general belief to the contrary, ex- Senator Warner Mil lor did attend the Republican state convention, and appeared to be in the very best of spirits. Chairman Knapp, of the state committee, called the convention to ordor, and Hon. Chauncey M. Depew was chosen temporary president. He addressed tho convention as follows: New York, Sept. 26.—It is announced that the mechanical engineers of the White Star steamship liua have determined to remove the two Urge propellers on the steamer "Teutonic" and substitute therefor propellers of a smaller size, hoping thereby to gain additional speed. About a month ago, when the ''Teutonic" made its tlrst voyage from Liverpool to New York, it raced with the Inman line "Oily of New York" and the Anchor line "City of Ilome." The White Star line has always been extremely conservative, but when it determined upon building mammoth ships of 12,000 tons to compete with the two new Inman monsters, as well as the "Etruria," "Umbria," "Auraiiia" and other large Cucarders, it was expected that this latest achievement in marine architecture and engineering would be the greatest. While tqual in size to the Iuman liners and also using two screws, they adopted a screw blade considerably larger ttaa tlat used upon iis rivals. The first raw, above referred to, demoastiated its inability to successfully compete with even the slower of the two Inmaa liners, although the outsailed the ' City of Rome," ..formeily an Inma", but now an Anchor linir. TLii experiment will be awaited with contidetable interest- Its adoption seems to indicate that in the "City, of Paris the highest speed possible of developement in a brat cf 12,000 tons gross tonnage, has been attained, and that the record of that stoamer cannot be beaten save by herself or by some new txat carrying still more powerful engines. In this connection it may be interesting to note the fact that one of the latest of the immense vessels of the turn screw pattern and of enormous size, the "Augusta Victoria," cf the Hanburg-American line,is s- id to be so shaken and strained by her enormously powerful machinery that she has been ordered out of service to undergo repairs which will require at least seven months to complete after less than a dozen trans-Atlantic voyages. Her horse power was equal but her tonnage was less than that of the Inman liners.

It is always a valued distinction to be chairman of a Republican convention of the state of New York. We are here taking one of the too infrequent days from our avocations and pursuits to give our time and best thought to the higher and more important business of the government of the commonwealth. The familiar truism that the prosperity and happiness of the people depends upon the wise administration of public affairs applies with unusual force to our actiou. The experience of a quarter of a century has demonstrated that the prosperity, development and progress of the republic and the highest interests of our state are best promoted and advanced under Republican administration.

Our grivnnces will all bo laid before the Loague, and there will be plenty of time to talk about getting even after our conference with the League magnates has failed. The publication this week of the Brotherhood's intentions is a 'fake-' of the worst kind. The whole schema was concocted by President Allen, of the Providence club; Radbourne and myself in 1885. It was prepared while we were members of the Providence club, and at a time when the League was talking of freezing Providence out. It was published in The Providenco Journal as a special from New York city, and created a great deal of excitement. The bluff was effective at that time and its dangers are transparent. But the surp.us is not money to be trifled with or equandered. It belongs to the people and represents unnecessary taxation. The effort to dispose of it led to the extraordinary attempt to put in force the .experiment of reducing the surplus by destroying the prosperity which made it possible. For the first time in fifteen years the Republican party is in possession of the executive and legislative branches of the government. The whole responsibility now devolves upon them. The surplus will be reached by removing unnecessary burdens and adjusting taxation upon proven lines. Internal revenues and tariff laws are never perfect, but when they are reformed by their friends, as they will be during the coming session of congress and the administration of our president, the modifications will remove unnecessary taxation without Impairing the bed-rock principle of protection to American industries. But now that it is for us to administer affaire, the needs of the country demand that the protection of our Industries shall be supplemented by every effort to flud for their surplus a market. The consistent policy of Republican administration for a quarter of a century has not only advanced and maintained wages, but promoted productiveness, invention, skill and good workmanship, sothatour output is beyond our homo needs, and must compete m foreign markets with the manufacturers of the old world. bor at the College.

Saratoga Springs, N. Y., Sept. 26.—In spite of general belief to the contrary, ex- Senator Warner Mil lor did attend the Republican state convention, and appeared to be in the very best of spirits. Chairman Knapp, of the state committee, called the convention to ordor, and Hon. Chauncey M. Depew was chosen temporary president. He addressed tho convention as follows: New York, Sept. 26.—It is announced that the mechanical engineers of the White Star steamship liua have determined to remove the two Urge propellers on the steamer "Teutonic" and substitute therefor propellers of a smaller size, hoping thereby to gain additional speed. About a month ago, when the ''Teutonic" made its tlrst voyage from Liverpool to New York, it raced with the Inman line "Oily of New York" and the Anchor line "City of Ilome." The White Star line has always been extremely conservative, but when it determined upon building mammoth ships of 12,000 tons to compete with the two new Inman monsters, as well as the "Etruria," "Umbria," "Auraiiia" and other large Cucarders, it was expected that this latest achievement in marine architecture and engineering would be the greatest. While tqual in size to the Iuman liners and also using two screws, they adopted a screw blade considerably larger ttaa tlat used upon iis rivals. The first raw, above referred to, demoastiated its inability to successfully compete with even the slower of the two Inmaa liners, although the outsailed the ' City of Rome," ..formeily an Inma", but now an Anchor linir. TLii experiment will be awaited with contidetable interest- Its adoption seems to indicate that in the "City, of Paris the highest speed possible of developement in a brat cf 12,000 tons gross tonnage, has been attained, and that the record of that stoamer cannot be beaten save by herself or by some new txat carrying still more powerful engines. In this connection it may be interesting to note the fact that one of the latest of the immense vessels of the turn screw pattern and of enormous size, the "Augusta Victoria," cf the Hanburg-American line,is s- id to be so shaken and strained by her enormously powerful machinery that she has been ordered out of service to undergo repairs which will require at least seven months to complete after less than a dozen trans-Atlantic voyages. Her horse power was equal but her tonnage was less than that of the Inman liners. Laurence Burns, at one time secretary of the Irish Land league in Dublin, has been appointed a clerk in the register's office, Jersey City.

Our grivnnces will all bo laid before the Loague, and there will be plenty of time to talk about getting even after our conference with the League magnates has failed. The publication this week of the Brotherhood's intentions is a 'fake-' of the worst kind. The whole schema was concocted by President Allen, of the Providence club; Radbourne and myself in 1885. It was prepared while we were members of the Providence club, and at a time when the League was talking of freezing Providence out. It was published in The Providenco Journal as a special from New York city, and created a great deal of excitement. The bluff was effective at that time and its dangers are transparent. But the surp.us is not money to be trifled with or equandered. It belongs to the people and represents unnecessary taxation. The effort to dispose of it led to the extraordinary attempt to put in force the .experiment of reducing the surplus by destroying the prosperity which made it possible. For the first time in fifteen years the Republican party is in possession of the executive and legislative branches of the government. The whole responsibility now devolves upon them. The surplus will be reached by removing unnecessary burdens and adjusting taxation upon proven lines. Internal revenues and tariff laws are never perfect, but when they are reformed by their friends, as they will be during the coming session of congress and the administration of our president, the modifications will remove unnecessary taxation without Impairing the bed-rock principle of protection to American industries. But now that it is for us to administer affaire, the needs of the country demand that the protection of our Industries shall be supplemented by every effort to flud for their surplus a market. The consistent policy of Republican administration for a quarter of a century has not only advanced and maintained wages, but promoted productiveness, invention, skill and good workmanship, sothatour output is beyond our homo needs, and must compete m foreign markets with the manufacturers of the old world. bor at the College.
