MASKED TRAIN ROBBERS.

Successful Raid on Kansas Missouri
Train-The United States Express Com
pany's Safe Relieved of Money and
LeweIry. H
ST. LOUIS, July "a dispatch from Atchi-
son, Kansas, says two masked men boarded the
short train which runs from Kansas City to st.
Joseph on the Missouri Pacific railroad at
Winthrop station at an early hour this morn
ing, and between there and the st.
Joseph junction robbed the United States
express company's safe of two hundred and
ffty dollars and package of jewelry belong
ing to Baldwin & Co., st. Joseph. The rob
bers are unknown.
Another account says the train was a local
train, running between Atchison and the main
lire of the Kansas City, st. Joe & Council
Bluffs road 30 connect with the train frem
Kansas City. The robbers boarded
the train at Winthrop, covered
the express messenger, Simons,
with revolvers. and in the presence of four
passengers opened the safe. j. G. Connolly,
baggage master, and Frank Ferhardt, depot
watchman, were also covered with revolVers
and searched for weapons but none found on
them. They then took from the afe the
jewelry and expressed great surpris that there
was no more money in the safe, and asked
where the other packages were. 1t appears
Simons refused to receive valuable money
package from the northward bound train
destined for Atchison and the theory is the
robbers knew : this package was on
the way, and expected to lind
i, in Simens' safe. When the train arrived al
the junction the robbers made Simons signal
the engineer to stop the train, and they leaped
off and disappeared, after promising to return

The Chicago Times says:-

uc AutOhAU eUtcS oayE.
The report of the Chicago, Burlington
and Quincy, by means of some kind of 6
''dicker" with the Chicago. Milwaukee &
st. Paul, was to have control of the Bur
Iington. Cedar Rapids and Northern rail-
road. cannot be corroborated, nor can it be
positively contradicted. It seems proba-
BILE, however. that the report originally
had reference, not to the Burlington,
Cedar Rapids and Northern. but to the
Chicago and Iowa railroad, which has
been coveted by both the Chicago, Bur-
lington.and Quincy and the Chicago. Mil
waukee aud ST. Paul companies. The
information comes very direct that these
two companies have been engaged in q
warm contest as to which should have the
Inside track" on the Chicago and Iowa
and it is reported that the St. Paul COM
pany, in consideration of certain eonces-
sions granted to. it. agrees to withdraw
from the contest, and leave the Burlington
company master of the situation, To
repeat, il seems quite likely that the COM
promise of this contest gave rise to the
report regarding the Burlington. Cedar
Rapids and Northern. Well informed
parties stated on yesterday that it was n
the power of the Burlington and the st.
Paul companies. by alliance or otherwise
to shift the control of the Cedar Rapids
Road to suit their own ends. and that the
Rock Island company holds proprietary
interest in the line of which it cannot be
deprived"
The Chicago Tribune saws of this matter
10 its issue of July 21st. that the story of
the adoption Of the B. c., r. & N. by the
Burlington people is rudely demolished by
e. r. Gable, General Manager of the
Rock Island. who states that there is no
truth whatever in the report, and that his
road continues to hold the same interest
in that line as heretofore. and there is no
likelihood that there will be change in
the ownership of that property very soon.
It is evident that sharp contest is going
on for control of that important feeder
and that there will be strong efforts made
by one of the three great companies to get
control, 1t is safe 20 say that the c., r.
I. & P. will be as likely to come out ahead
rs either of the others. and perhaps ma y
obtain possession.
