MAIZE OiUTE q kEfIt

GALLATIN, Mo, April 22.-One of the
boldest railroad robberies ever pcrpetrated
by a single robber in Missouri occurred at
Hattenburg. on the Wabash road Friday
night and just leaked out. About 9o'clock
Friday night one masked burglar entered
the station at Hattenburg. He covered
the agent, the only person in the station,
with pistol and demanded the key. which
he received. He then made the agent oc-
cupy a given position and proceeded to
plumber the safe. He cleared it out of
everything valuable. securing from $1,000
to $4,000. Among the booty was a pack
age of 50. .0G0, letter addressed to Hat
tenburg bank, containing 500, and num-
Der of express packages. He also took all
the express, freight and ticket funds and
robbed the agent of his own money and
valuables The robber then backed out of
the station, mounted horse and rode
away.
The agent on Saturday notified Mr.. Nc
Gee of the Wabash & Western. Mr.. Nc
Gee communicated with detectives in st.
Louis and search for the robber was
started which has been without success.
