ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES.
THE LAST RAILWAY ROB
Berry.
The Robbers Captured and All In
Csin Recovered.

As soon rs the news was received ut
Virginia Of the mail car being robbed
ut Alta, Oh the Central Pacific railroad,
Saturday evening, detective officer Ben
Lackey, Of Virginia, Immediately left
for the scene of the robbery, going by
special train from Reno. As will be
seen by the account given Of the rob-
berry In another column, another special
train with officers and employees also
left Sacramento about the same time.
So prompt and efficient was the search
and pursuit that it resulted in the cap
ture Of the robbers, together with all
the stolen treasure ; SO we are informed
by Mr.. Pendergast, Wells, Fargo s
Co.'S agent at Virginia, and also by
Chief of Police George Downey. The
United States mail department ad-
Joined that of Wells, Fargo & Co., in
the same car. John A. Benham, for
merly Of Virginia, was II Of the two
mail agents, and when they went to
supper they fastened their door as
usual. This door was at the farther
end of the car from the house. there
fore the robbers could not well be seen,
but they were heard inside by Wells,
Fargo & Co.'S agent, who. however,
noticed nothing unusual, thinking 1t
was one Of the mail agents. There
were two Of the robbers, and evidently
watching their opportunity, they got
upon the platform, cut q corner out Of
a light Of glass in the door with a
diamond, large enough to thrust n hand
through and unf;rsten the door from the
inside. being apparently posted as to
the style of the fastening. Selling the
sack OF registered letters and the sack
of coin, they took them Immediately
beneath the freight honse platform.
where they ripped open both sacks and
helped themselves to the contents.
The $4,000 was all in gold coin, and
they hastily pocketed $1,000 of it and
made of. The mail agents, returning
to their car, Immediately discovered
the robbery and gave the alarm. I'm
mediate search was instituted, and the
mutilated sacks were soon found, but
not the robbers, although the direction
OF their flight was indicated by their
tracks. We did not learn the particr-
lars of their capture, but that being
rather a snowy region ut the present
time, we judge escape was not q very
easy matter. 1t il gratifying to know
that the rogues and their booty are safe
IN custody. As we understand the
matter, this robbing the United States
mail is a hanging matter.

The serious danger Of overflow by which
New Orleans has been threateded has not
been unanticipatel From time to time
the detective condition Of the levees has
