MURDERED AND ROBBED.

Two PaymRstsrs Killed and Robbed OF
91s, 900 by Highwaymen.
WuKEsBARRE, Pa, October 1S.-A most
daring murder and robbery occurred this
morning, a few miles from here on the
Wilkesbarre mountain. Paymaster John R.
Mcclure, and Stable Boss Hugh Flanagan,
of Philadelphia, and their horse were shot
dead and a sum OF money amounting to
$4,000 in their possession was taken by the
murderers. The murdered men we're on
their way to pay the workmen onMcFadden's
new branch Of the Lehigh Valley railroad,
between Mill creek and Lausaun. They
were riding in q buggy through a strip
OF woods 10 the place where the pay
meuts were to be made, when the highway
men stepped ont of the woods and crying
shalt, " they shot the horse dead and also
both the paymasteFs. The money was in a
box and was composed Of gold and silver,
which they took and fed for parts IN
known. The daring act has caused a great
excitement here, and all efforts are being
made by the police, detectives and citizens
to capture the Williams.
The bodies of ]. B. Mcclure and Flanagan
were discovered at about a quarter to II
o clock by Contractor McEaddens of Phila-
delphia, who was coming from his Office at
Juniper creek about a mile and q half from
the scene of the tragedy. He first saw the
empty buggy and the horse bleeding from
gun shot wounds. he next discovered
Mcclure, below the wheels quite dead and
with bullet holes in his head. McFadden
then returned to his Office for his foreman,
and the two went to the scene Of the
tragedy. Both armed themselves. On
reaching the lonely spot they found FIani-
gan's body lying alongside the road. He
had been shot IN the head. The money,
81, 600 IN currency and $1,000 IN specie,
which had baen carried IN a leather satohel
was gone. This money had been drawn out
of the Wyoming National bank of this city
at 10 O'Clock this morning. Both Mcclure
and Flanagan were we'll armed, i is
thought they were shot from ambush.
Great excitement prevails. One of par
~ of Hungarians, driving furiousiy through
he upper part of this city, this afternoon,
fell out OF the wagon, and was arrested on
suspicion Of being connected with the trag-
edy. He gave the name of John Robbins
and said that he and his companions were
on their way from Plymouth to the railroad
depot. All were drunk and 1t Is not lisely
that they are the assassins. Local detectives
and policemen ara out, and kilograms con
corning the assassination have been sent to
all points.

What 1t Takes to Feed a Locomotive.

It VIII, perhaps, interest some read
ers to know how much fuel a locomotive
burns. This, of course, depends upon
the quality of fuel, work done, speed,
and character Of the road. On freight
trains an average consumption may be
taken at about one to one and One-half
pounds OF coal consumed per car per
mile. With passenger trains, the cars
of which are heavier and the speed
higher, the coal consumption is greater.
A freight train of thirty cars, at a speed
of thirty miles per hour, would, there
fore, burn from 800 to $50 pounds Of
coal per h0ur-lScr5b71er Magazine.
