ARREST OF TWO VILLAINS IN SOUTHERN


INDIANA
For some time past obstructions have been placed
on the Jeffersonville Railroad. The damage to the
property of the company by accidents caused by
these obstructions, has been considerable and sew
eral persons have been crippled. On Tuesday
morning the A. NJ. train from INDIANAPOLIS was
thrown from the track, by some kind of obstruc-
ton placed upon it. The perpetrators in this in
stance, two notoriously bad characters named Hub
bard and Ulmer, were caught. The Railroad Com
pany employed Chicago detective named Smith,
who at once proceeded to Vienna, near which town
the accidents had occurred, and remained there
three or four weeks, passing himself off as sport
ing character with plenty of money. He PLAYED
poker, drank whiskey, bet on races visited cock
pits &C., and withal was very liberal. He got a
Mr. Clark, of Vienna to assist him in his plans and
introduce him to all the fast characters Thus he
learned that they had placed the obstructions on
the railroad. Last week freight train was thrown
OFF. Hubbard was hired by the Company to skin
the cattle killed. but he said he was sorry he had
undertaken the job, as he could have made more by
robblng the train. Ulmer confessed that he had
stolen keg of tobacco from the same train.
Night before last it was arranged bv Hubbard and
Ulmer TO throw Off the midnight passenger train,
and Smith was informed of the place and hour He
pretended to have business in Indianapolis, and on
his return was to bring with him the President of
the Indianapolis association for the purpose of in
stalllng the officers of the Vienna association
Smith, on his arrival at Indianapolis secuI ed the
services of the U. S. Deputy Marshal and returned
in speciel train. In the meantime, some of the
company's men were lying in wait near the spot
When Hubbard and Ulmer had almost finished their
work the watchmen came up, and shortly after
Smith and the Marshal, who had stopped the train
some distance of, arrived and arrested them. They
were taken to Indianapolis Yesterday for trial

the cities of Portland, Boston, New York, Phila-
delphia, Baltimore, Norfolk, Charleston Savannah

proposed route are perfect, and in financial view
it is equally adapted to the condition of the treasu-
ry. 1t takes no money therefrom. All that is re-
qured is simple endorsement of credit on the part
of the Government, the interest on and principal of
