Six Men Go Through q Train, the Psssen-
gers Yielding Up Hurriedly, but Abund.
EMBELLISHMENTS in Pursuit.
DALLAS, April S.-The north bound train
on the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe road was
robbed few miles south of Cleburn at 10
O'Clock Friday night, at a water station called
Blum. Six men wearing masks and roughly
dressed entered the passenger coaches. Two
took their positions to guard the doors at
either end, while the other two went through
the car with cooked pistols, one carrying a
pillow slip, ordering missionary fund.-
The passengers did as ordered. When they
were about through with the passengers the
conductor entered the car, and seeing what
was up rushed for the express car. One OF the
robbers fred at him, but he escaped unhurt,
the ball passing through the express car door.
All the robbers then jumped off and disap-
peared.
The amount secured Is not known. Sever
al parties gaveup large sums. One OF the
passengers says the robbers got about $1,000,
others say not over $500 or $500. The proba-
bility Is, that those who were robbed do not
like to make known their losses. The officers
were notified and posse with bloodhounds
were put in pursuit. 1t Is thought this Is the
gang who attempted to wreck the north
bound night train three weeks ago by remov-
ing rail. The authorities suspect certain
parties, green hands at tie business, and will
endeayor to secure their arrest. The robbers
used old caps and ball and navy revolvers.

CRITTENDEN NOT KILLED.

A Report of the Death of Gov. Crittenden
at the Hands of jesse James Friends
The Rumor Contradicted.
WASHINGTON, April S.-A rumor has been
quite generally circulated here this afternoon,
that Gov. Crittenden was assssinated in Missou-
ri to day by somebody supposed to be connect
ed with the James gang. The rumor created
considerable excitement, but up to the present
the authorities have received no information
to confirm it and they do not credit 1t.
CoNTRADICTED.
ST.. LOUIS, April S.-The reports which
were circulated here and abroad this morning
that Gov. Crittenden had been assassinated by
Frank James or some other member Of the
James gang, are entirely without foundation.
A telegram from Secretary Of State McGrath
to the Associated Press correspondent, in re-
ply to inquiry, says the report is nonsensical.
The governor is well and Sheriff Timberlake
and Commissioner Craig are now here after
the reward. One of the railroads concerned
has already sent to the governor its share of
the reward for Jesse James.
CoNCLUsIvE-HE STILL LIVES.
CHICAGO, April San entirely groundless
sensational rumor was received here last
night that Gov. Crittenden had been assas-
sinated. The Associated Press made an im-
mediate inquiry from Kansas City, and got
the contradiction. The rumor was not
deemed worthy of notice, and would not be
new, except that the rumor seems to have
reached other cities without contradiction.

said: "I have received reply from Hurlbut
and there Is nothing In your charge whatever.
/ knew there was nothing In it. So dom t say
anything more to me on that subject"
Rice then asked the witness If he had any
further facts to offer to show that Hurlbut
ever had any connection with the Credit In
dustrial, and received the reply: ~ haven't
any,"
Rlce-Have you any facts to offer to lead to
the slightest suspicion that Blaine ever had
Industrial?
Answer-None whatever.
Rce-Have you anything to show that
Blaine ever had the slightest interest in the
Peruvian company?
Answer-I have never charged him with
any connection or interest in either.
Rice--Then what grounds have you for sup
posing that the secretary of war was favor
able to your company?
Auswer-The manner in which he
had treated the subject, and par
ticularly the assurances of Senator
Blair. He BLAIR frequently told
me, "Shipherd, you can quote the secretary's
feeling. Quote him great deal stronger than
you have done. You don't quote him too
strong. Don't except him to commit himself
by writing, but be sure of this, that the state
department is thoroughly with as in this
matter"
After further questions which elected moth
ing of particular interest, other than that the
secretary IN discussing the Peruvian question,
evinced desire to have the troubles between
Chilli and Peru settled as fayorably as possible
to Peru, the committee adjourned.
