O'Clock. masked men took possession Of

road. about twenty-five miles above the
city. locked the messenger up In his
chest, deliberately plundered the pack
ages and escaped. The robbery was not
discovered until the train reached the
Biddle street depot in this city, when the
employees Of the company, not seeing the
messenger, entered the car In search Of
him. Faint cries from the interior OF the
chest, which was securely strapped, al
traeted attention, and the messenger,
Charles Kincaid, was speedily extricated
He had not scratch or bruise TO show,
but had been halfsmothered by his con.
finement. The express-caT Is an ordinary
one. having a door at each end secured by
self fastening lock and by a chain which
Is fastened loosely on the inside, so thatihe
door can be opened few inches but Is still
secure. The object Of this Is that the mes.
genger, when anyone knocks for admis-
sion, may be able to see who Is there be-
caid says that when he took charge of the
car In Kansas City he noticed that the
staple holding the chain on the rear door
had been drawn out leaving the door Sc
cured only by the lock. The express-car
was hitched 10 the tender and preceded
the baggage car. He says he thought lit.
tie Of the Insecure door during the early
part of the night, but when the train
passed Mexico he prepared to take nap,
there being few more stoppages before
reaching st. Louis. He put the heaviest
package he had, weighing about $50
pounds, against the door and then went 30
sleep. AT St. Charles he got up and put
some wood In the stove, after which he
dropped off again. When he next came
10 consciousness he felt hand on his col
lar, and on looking up saw two
men standing over him, one holding a
revolver Ia each hand, while the
other held him in a tight grasp. Not
word was spoken, but wrench at the
collar brought the messenger 10 his feet.
Looking him square In the eyes, and APP
parently reading his decision 10 remain
passive, they went Immediately 10 work.
While one held him the other searched
his pockets and got the keys. He then
opened the large messenger chest and
rapidly threw out the packages Before
kincaid understood the plan another
wrench at his cOat-collar wheeled him
around and tumblcd him into the trunk.
A single package was thrown 10 him " for
pillow" one Of the robbers remarked,
and the heavy lid was shut down with "a
thud and strapped. The robbers then
went through the contents OF the car, in.
Guiding the safe, at their leisure. Nearly
every package was broken open. Jsst
where the robbers left the car nobody
knows. The company IL reticent about
the amount of the loss, but the contents of
the safe In money and yaluables amounted
10 nearly $l2 200. There was one money
package of - 600. One estimate puts the
loss at $4,000 Kincaid is unable to give
more than the most vague description Of
the men.

A Sun reporter conversed yesterday
with gentleman who knows the condi.
ton OF the suits against Tweed, and who
said "There is no proposition pending
for compromise Of the Tweed, Sweeney
or Connolly suits. The only offer of the
Kind ever made that meant business was
by Connolly, on the night that he was put
In Ludlow Street Jail Connolly then
had 81 100000 In Usited States bonds in
his house, which he offered To give up ii
we would withdraw the suits against him.
Mr.. Wheeler H. Peckham WAS willing 10
accept thst offer. Mr.. Charles O'Conor,
however, opposed IL, saying that Connolly
must be punished as warning to other
public thieves. Since then no practical
proposition has ever been made. IL Is
true that proposition was made on be-
half of Tweed that he should pay over
certain sum, and the criminal az well az
the civil proceedings he discontinued.
That ofcourse could not be accepted"
Can any property OF Tweed be
reached, should the people obtain a judg-
ment against him?" the reporter asked.
Most, II not all, OF his property has
been disposed OF under conyeyances,
many Of which we believe to be, and are
prepared 10 prove, fraudulent. Then,
again, large portion of his real estate
had been bought by him subject to mort
cages, and the mortgages have been fore.
closed. The latter we cannot touch. OF
course we could sell his right, title and
interest TO any of the property which he
has held, but the question is How much
would IL bringS think the people may
be able to get over 800, 900 out Of Twecd's
property, but there never will be another
chance like that in the case Of Connolly,
which was rejected by Mr.. o'Conor.
Tweed may have been worth $4,000, 900
three years ago. He certainly Ia not
worth over az, 900, 900 now. understood
from friend of bis over year ago that
he had paid over $3.50, 900 to his lawyers,
and he had to sacrifice good deal In get.
ting rid OF his property"
How about his being In the city,"
Such report must be mere surmise.
The prosecution certainly knows nothing
Of his presence Ia this vicinity, nor have
they heard from him directly or in the
most remote indirect way since his es-
cape."--N. Y. Sun, Dec. 10.

Personal AND LITERARY.

William Lloyd Garrison few days
since observed a semi-centennial ami.
versary at Newburyport, Mass, by taking
his place as volunteer compositor on the
Herald of that city, on which he set type
a half century ago.
AT the funeral Of Edward III. Stokes,
father of the man who shot Jim Fisk, Jr.,
a message was read from the son at Sing
Sing, in which he said to DIR. Armitage,
the officiating clergyman: /" can't be at
my dear fathers funeral. / believe that
he has died of a broken heart. He has
been carrying my troubles as well as his
own, and beg you, rs his pastor, not TO
fail to remember me in your prayers"
Mayor p. T. Barnum and his wife,
who are now living at Bridgeport, Conn,
being DESTROYS of companionship, re-
ceptly proposed to two congenial neigh.
bors, Mr.. George Wells and his wife, that
the two families should draw lots to deter
mine which should pass the winter under
the others roof-tree. Mr.. Barnum lost
the choice, and he and Mrs. Barnum have
accordingly gone to live with their neigh
bors.
Mrs. Margaret Astor Chanler, a grand
daughter of William b. Aston, died in
New York on the morning of the 18th.
She attended the funeral of her grand
father apparently in perfect health. Mrs.
Chanler inherited $4,000, 900 from Mr..
Aston, in addition to the large property
that she received from her mothers estate.
She was thirty seven years old, and had
ten children, the eldest of whom is only
thirteen years old.
"A writer In the New York Tribune,
whose sense Of propriety has been shocked
by observing the use of the term cable
gram" to designate submarine cable
dispatch, proposes four words as etymo,,
logically correct, either of which would
signify the desired meaning. They are
formed after the model of telegram, by
their combination Of the Greek word
"gramma'' "a writing) and either
oceanos'' (the ocean, into "oceano-
gram" "thalassa'' tthe seal into "thalas-
sagram," "pontos" tthe deep seal into
pontogram," or "hals" (the salt sea-
into "halogram." The suggestions are
supposed 70 be those Of Richard Grant
White.
