but that II he acted otherwise he
could not answer for the consequences.
Fotheringham had nothing to do but 10
submit, and according to his statement
the robber bound him hand and foot,
pressed gag in his mouth, tied him TO
the safe so that he could not move and
proceeded with his work. The safe had
been left open and It took but n few
minutes for the robber TO secure the
bank notes and valuables. He cut open
the bags containing silver com, but con-
cluded that these were too heavy for him
to carry and he did not disturb their con.
tents. OF the gold. however, he took 4
goodly amount. He then proceeded 10
make good his escape. The road at this
point runs directly along the side of a
high blum, which In places overhangs the
track, making the danger Of wrecks from
collisions with boulders which occasion
ally fall from above upon the tracks very
great. Trains therefore, slack up at this
point and run slowly till the dangerous
place is passed. This, the engineer Of

coincidence that he gave the name Of jim
Cummings, the only member Of the once
celebrated james gang who h never
been accounted for. The stranger gave
the name OF Cummings 20 Fo ,herlngham,
the messenger, and presented to him a
cleverly forged letter bearing perfect
fac-simile OF the signature Of
Barrett, local agent, Of the
express company a. St. Louis. The
letter Stated that Mr.. Barrett had de.

tails of the business, The stranger was

time the new assistant was informed that
there was nothing more just then that he
could do,and he seated himself in chair,
waiting until some new duties should be
assigned to him. Fotheringham was still
busy, engaged over the accounts, with his
back TO Cummings. In the course OF
time II became necessary for him to 90 to
the safe, and turning to do so he saw the
stranger calmly sitting In his chair with a
cooked revolver leveled at his (Fothering-
ham's) head. Cummings cautiously APP

no outcry and raised no alarm his life

He first locked all but one door, stepped
out on the platform, locked the door
from the outside and jumped OF. Mes
senger Fotherlngham, Ia the mean time,
could do nothing TO release himself, not
being able even TO call for help. Near
Mincke a boulder had fallen upon the
track, and the train was delayed an hour
before 1t could be removed. The con-
ductor tried the door Of the express car
but found II locked. Supposlng the mes.
senger to be busy he did not ask admit
lance. At st. Clair he again tried the
door and found II locked. He listened
for minute aud heard the messenger
struggling to free himself, and making all
the noise possible by kicking with his feet
against the side Of the car. The con-
ductor suspected that something
was wrong, and burst the
door open, finding Fotheringham
as above described. He was quickly res
leased and told his experience. The rob.

RAILWAY MATTERS.
wIscAssEr . KENNEREc.

Hon. William Atkinson, who has just re-
turned from his trip to Canada in the inter-
ests of the Wiscasset & Kennebec railroad,
was in the city yesterday. He presented the
advantages Of the route to the Board OF
Wade in Quebec, who seemed 10 be favor
ably impressed. Mr.. Atkinson is confident
that the people of Quebec will complete the
road from Lewis to the Maine border, and he
is also confident that the remainder Of the
line from the border to Wiscasset win also
become a reality, although he says the under
taking is only in its infancy No subscrip-
tions to stock have been asked, and the men
who are behind the enterprise, so far as II
ooneorns Maine, are Teticent as to whether
there are any capitalists In view who Will be
likely to encourage the undertaking. Mr..
Atkinson scouts the idea that the road will
go from NOrridgewock to Skowhegan In
order to use the Maine Central track 10 Au-
gusta. The road, he says, will be an indie
pendent line when built, crossing the Kenne-
bee at some point near Augusta, but using
the track Of no other road but the Somerset
railroad, which Is to be part Of the line.
THE INTERNATIONAL.
While in Canada Mr.. Atkinson went over
the line Of the International road, which
now extends some thirteen miles into Maine.
He says that, although the snow was very
deep, he saw enough to convince him that
the international is to be most carefully
built road. The grades are remarkably easy,
and the curves very gradual-just such a
ROAD as will be needed for an immense
through traffic. The benefit Of this road to
Northern Maine, Mr.. Atkinson says, can
hardly be estimated. 1t will open up aud
give access to new regions, and also give
business to branch roads like the Wiscasset
x Kennebec, and enough business for them
all.
