in to-morrow's paper offer a reward of $l5. 600
for the arrest of the gang of train robbers who
last night stopped the Chicago g. Alton train
and riAed the express company's safe at Glen
dale, Mo. Alproportionate part of the amo unit
will be given for the capture of part Of the
robbers, Although the loss falls entirely on
the express company the railroad authorities
are determined to prevent, if the most strin-
gent measures will do it, any recurrence of
this outrage, and to break up the band of out
laws who perpetrated it. Auditor Bridges
who was at the station where the affair occurred,
telegraphs here to refute the insinuation that
theIstation agent at Glendale, Mcintyre. was in
the conspiracy to rob the train. He says but
for the pluck and efficiency Of Mcintyre the
telegraph Office would not have been repaired
at all last night, and the disaster might have
been much greater. The express mpany will
be able to save a large portion of the property
stolen, as payment can be stopped upon the
drafts. checks, ETC., which largely made up the
contents Of their package. -"4 =. go ga
