ston Robbery
A confession made by Clarence Hite
previous TO his death, after going at length
over the. preliminary arrangements for the
Winston robbery, contains the following:
awe were at Winston when the train came
along. Jesse was our Captain, and our
stations were as follows: Frank james,
Jesse James and my brother got on tho
smoking-car, and Dick and myself got on
the front platform of the express-cGr. The
understanding was that Dick and myself,
as soon as Jesse and Frank should pull the
belI-rope, were to climb over the coal
and pull down on the engineer and fireman
and make them obey orders: AS soon as they
rang the bell, which was before we reached
the bridge, we climbed over the coal
and made them stop the train. The under
standing was that Wewere TO stop the train
ANYWAY before reaching the bridge. Jesse,
Frank and Wood were to 30 in aud rob the
car. At the first stoppage Frank ran
around to the side, seized the bageageman
by the leg, and pulled him out Of the car.
They then commenced firing into the car,
and the -expressman opened the door.
They then went in and robbed the car. All
this took about half an hour. We got Si2G
and some cents apiece. Jesse said the con-
ductor started to draw his pistol and he
(Jesse) told him il be drew 1t ne would
kill him. He did not desist and was shot.
Jesse did not know the conductor. Thees Is
no truth in the story that Jesse killed him
because he SUPPOSED he (the conductor)
had carried Pinkerton's detectives out TO
his mothers MRS. Samueis') house. The
stonennasOn was shot accidentally. We

house after r0bbing the train We then

to sleep; so did Frank. This was about

A RUSH TO DEATH.
Two Persons Killed and Eight Seriously

ON the Long Island RailrOad.

Two Persons Killed and Eight Seriously
Injured by Collision of Passenger Trains
on the Long Island Railroad.
NEW YoRK, Sept IL.
A serious accident occurred this evening
on the Long Island Railroad, near Hunters
Point Depot, by which two men were killed
and eight injured The Flushing train
leaving Hnnter's Point, when at Montauk
Junction, about eight miles from the depot,
was run into by n Manhattan Beach train,
due at Hunters Point ab .6:30. The latter
train was several minutes late, and the en-
gineer should have stopped east Of tho
Junction until the Flushing train passed.
The locomotives came together near the
switch. The Flushing train consisted OF
four passenger coaches and a combination
car, each of which was full of passengers.
None of these were injured. The engine
and tender, however, are badly broken up.
The engineer of the Flushing train, Ernest
Cretzner, remained at his post, backing
down his train, and received slight
injuries. The Manhattan Beach train
and one parlor. The latter was next the
engine. At the time Of the collision this
train was running at the rate of thirty five
miles per hour. The engine was not greatly
damaged, but the parlor car was telescoped
by the car behind. All of the cars were
crowded, with many persons standing ON
the platforms. Most of the occupants Of
the parlor car were warned by the ''stssing"
of the escaping air from the air-brakes,
and escaped from the car by the door and
windows. The car apparently broke in two
about the middle, and the platform car be-
hind was crushed through about the same
distance. All the chairs in the back part
of the car were smashed and piled up. The
second car and the floor of the parlor car
were on one side. Under these were Thos.
Birmingham, Of East Houston street, and
Robt. Smith, of 1856 South Eighth street. 1t
was found necessary to cut away the pam
cling and woodwork with axes to get the
men out. Their legs were so crushed that
amputation was necessary, and they died
very soon after the operation. Their bodies
were then removed to the Long Island dead
house to await the inquest of the Coroner.
The injured, SO far as asceTtained, were:
Thos. Glenn, engineer of the Manhattan
Beach train, cut on the head and shoulders.
NJ Norris, of Philadelphia, one leg cut
off.
Geo. Wright. serious cuts on face and
lip.
Lawrence, New York, cut on head.
Leslie Il. Slawson, New York; cut and
bruised about head and body.
w. Connor, New York; cut on head and
body.

CEDAR CREEK, June IS, 1888.
EDITOR LEADER:-As c.. G. has
died a natural death you will allow
me this opportunity Of showing to
your many readers that the camp
is not quite dead yet.
The boys have begun work again
on the Comanchio Chief and it is
looking up tamously. The first
shot blew out a solid lump of min
eral weighing about 300 pounds.
This lode is surrounded by several
claims, all showing good mineral,
the furthest one not being over one
half mile from the Comachie.
Sam. Butcher, from Socorro,
is in this locality and has recently
found and located a very fine pros
pect on Cedar Creek. He says it
is something like the Lake Valley
ore and carries horn silver and
black s%ulphurets.
S. Daugherty and Capt. Boner
recently found a good thing here
in the way of gray copper, very
much the same as the High Rol-
Ter mine.
X. and j. have recently started
on a trip to Colorado where they
intend to dispose of their property
and return in November to the
land of promise with a pocket full
of money and a broad smile on
their faces. They have several good
prospects in this camp.
We have been having extensive
fires of late. The grass has been
burning for some time. on the east
side Of the White mountains. 1t
is not known how the fire started
but it is supposed that sheep herd
ers let it out, as there have been
several herds of sheep ranging the
hills in the vicinity lately. Stock
men should stop the sheep from
running over the country at will.
Let them go to their ranches anC
stay there.
There are a few old timers il
this Territory who would ratheI
see Apaches thar to see a gooC
piece of mineral. 1t really seemI
to make them mad to see the coun
try settle up with citizens anC
miners.

There las been agreat change Of
late years in the fashion Of wearing
iewelry on the street and the ten
dency is still TO get rid Of all show
and parade OF jewels restricting
it to essentials a watch and a collar
button. twenty-five years ago a
woman who could afford it carried
a small jewelry shop of rings,
bracelets, pins, earrings, watch.
long chains and pendants. The
modern limitations which are so
good that takes an expert to detect
Them, made it possible for all
women to wear iewelry, and the
moment it became common it ccas-
cd to be desirable, at least with an
exclusively fashionable class, and
was voted vulgar on the street.
One of the most elegant women in
New York, wear jewelry only
when it is necessary to produce a
certain picturesque and complete
effect. With some Of her finest
toilets she wears not even a pin, as
that would mar the ruff effect at
the throat.
