Company. THEY RELUCTANTLY OBEY ORDERS. One of the Clerks Escapes and la Parsued by one of the Robbers--The Other dit Deserts the Promises and la Follow. ed by the Clerk-Shots Exchanged. The Annville depot of the P.

R. road, apparently is a "pudding," if we may be permitted to use the parlance of the boodlooms. On a number of occasions the Annville depot has been robbed; on one occasion an effort was mailo to blow it up, and finally a few weeks ago, it was burnt down, either by accident or through malicions intentions. Since the depot has been burnt down the freight depot bas been utilized and partitioned off, one part being used as a freight department, while the rest of the space is used as a waiting room and ticket office. Last evening, shortly after 8 o'clock, Station Agent Bomberger left the office, leaving it in charge of his son Joseph and Night Operator Morris Wilhelm.

They were just in the act of closing their day's labor and wero waiting for the 8:46 train bound west, when the door opened and two men entered the reception room, but they paid very little attention to the strangers, as they believed that they merely were waiting to take the next train. Before they had time to ponder lor the two strangers entered the office and the smaller of the two drew a revolver and demanded that both should throw up their hands and deliver whatever they had of money. The young clerks took it as a joke, for several moments before friends had been there and spoke regarding just such preceedings, but they were soon disabused of such an illusion a as the men by their tone and manner soon convinced them that they were in downright earnest. At the point of the pistol they handed over all the money they had in their possession amounting to about $8, having just sent the day's receipts away, The money was thrown on the table, and while one of the robbers R'A8 intle act of counting it, the other demanded that the clerks hand over their watches, While young Bomberger was in the act of loosening his chain, Operator Wilhelm watched his opportunity to escape from the office and made a dash for the door, succeeded in getting out, but the robber shot once or twice alter him, and rushing forward, shot again as he jumped from the platform. The other robber losing his presence of mind, followed his comrale, and this gave Bomberger.a chance to reach on his ticket case and get possession of his revolver.

Ile followed the two robbers and as they jumped from the platform he fired several shots after their retreating forms. In making their escape one of the nun dropped his hat, which is a black soft felt. It was picked up and is now in the possession of the officers. Mr. Wilhelm, when he ran from the platform out into the night, ran against a telegraph pole and knocked his forehead against it, inflicting a wound that has created a swelling, the size of a walnut.

One of the robbers is described as being five feet high and weighing about 140 pounds. The other robber wore a slouch hat, was fire feet eight inches high and quite slim in build, The money they got amounts to about 48, among which was a 45 bill, slightly worn, with a alit torn at end from foldis ing in the middle; three 50 cent pieces, worn smooth, including a littlo small change. It may be that the party who committed the bold robbery at Annville is the same who on Thursday evening committed two robberies at Middletown. Three men entered Reitzel's grocery and ed Mr. Reitzel, Martin Ingley and E.

Geistwhite, who were in the room, to hold up their hands, which they did. Tho thieves secured $120 In cash and gold watch. They also took Geistwhite's watch. The men were forced into the cellar and the door barred. Henry Ridley, a milk man, was robbed early yesterday morning near Middle town.

His horse was stopped and about eight dollars taken. One of the robbers struck Ridley a blow in the stomach. Suspicious characters have since been J. seen, but no arrests were made. S.

Jan. Taylor, chief of scouts, yesterday re-! ceived letters frown Short Bull and Kicking Bear, chief of the Broles, stating that they would sur-: render at the agency today with all their people. Bat these letters amount to nothing in view of past eventa, for the Indians change their minds about 85 fast as they make them up. The desire of the hostiles to come in is doubtless prompted by the approach of the troops from behind and from the wings. The soldiers are slowly closing in on the hostile villages.

Scouts report that the troops are already so close to the hostiles that skirmishing continues at intervals during the day and night, Red Cloud, escaped from the hostiles on Wednesday, says there are 1,000 warriors in the hostile camp, and that they are as well armed as the soldiers. This shows the magnitude of the job which lies before the soldiers, for it is tacitly admitted that whether the hostiles surrender or not, they will be disarmed and dismounted. It cost the Seventh cavalry eightyfive officers and inen to disarm 150 of Big Foot's band, and it is admitted by everybody here that the hostiles who are on White Clay creek will never give up their rifies and ponies without a fight. The committee which has been investigating Col. Forsyth's management ol troops at Wouuded Knee has fiuished its report.

They Will Aid Him if the Republi- cans Revolt WASHINGTON, Jan. dispatch was received here from a friend of Senator Quay's, in Harrisburg, which states that case there is a revolt against Mr.

Cameron at the last moment, when it comes to the ratification of the caucus action, the Democrats in the legislature will join the Cameron ranka and help him out. It is said that Democratic influence from Washington is being exercised this end. The idea that such revolt of Repablicans may occur after the cancos has made a selection probably grows out of the expectation that if an attempt is made to pass the election bill again both Quay and Cameron will vote against it in spite of the resolations of the legislature. If by voting against the election bill Mr. Cameron gered his position at home, the Democrats might find a reason for coming to his assistance.

It is said that three or four of the silver men who roted to lay aside the election bill in the interest of silver, will support that measure after the gilver bill is out of the way. In this event the Democrats will have to rely on other Republicans taking the places of those who go back to their old love. There are several anti-silver men who are relied on to oppose the election. bill, and Cameron and Quay aro to be among them. Stabbed His Rich Father.

IRON SITUATION UNSATISFAOTORY The Manufacture Has Ontgrown the Demand Improvement in the Financial Situation- Speculation Inactive--A Large Volume of Traffic for the Sea Failures. NEW YORK, Jan. -The hopeful feeling in most branches of the trade continues and the railroad ontlook is improved, bat in spite of this there has been such selling of secnrities on foreign account that exchange has ad.

ranced from last week to $4.864. The legislative prospect is regarded by many with apprehension, and the situation in the iron and steel industries is not satisfuctory. The iron and steel manufactura has been so rapidly exteuded that shrinkage of credits has forced sales in many cases at prices below cost. Hence works producing rails and other finished products are DOW idle whose monthly production of pig iron is estimated at 130,000 tons. On the whole the prospact is cousidered brighter than it has been for many Fears in this industry.

Cotton and Wool. In cotton manufactures also the shrinkage has Reverely strained many concerns, and prices of goods have been very low, but further reductions have been made during the past week in bleached cottons. The woolen market is doing fairly. Reports of trade from different cities are still much influenced by reviews of last year's great business, but generally indicate a large volume of traffic for the season, with marked improvement since the monetary panic abated. Boston notes larger sales of boots and shoes aud of leather and stronger hides, firm wool and quiet lumber.

At Philadelphia the leather and shoe trades are dull and wool is in little demand. At Chicago receipts of grain equal last year's, but decreases in dressed beef and Jard. Higher cotton prodnces greater activity throughont the Sugar and rice receipts at New Orleans are good. Money Less Tight. The money markets throughout tho country are less stringent, and reports, of collectioas more favorable.

HARRISBURG, Jun. Philadelphia and Harrisburg papers contained the stutement that Senator Wallace assignees had failed to give bond, and that consequently immediate action would be taken in the matter by his creditors. S. J. McCurrell, of this city, one of the ussignees.

says: "The assignees have not failed to give bond; the time has not yet elapsed for the filing of the bond; it is duly prepared and will bo filed before the expiration of the time allotted by law. Farthermore the executions issued against Senntor Wallace's property were issued the day before the assignment was recorded and it was lurgely because of these exacations that the assigument was mile at the time it was. By a very conservative estimate Senator Wallace's property will bring, even after the executions issued before the assignment are fully satisfied, more than twice the atnount of his debts. His creditors will be fully satisfied and will receive 100 cents on the dollar. Senator Wallace will not find himself a poor 1080 by any means wheu his affairs are finally sat- tied."
