MAY HAVE HAD WINGS.
Train Robbers Who Leave No
Footprints.

AUGUSTA, Ga, Nov. 16.-Last Sun
day both night trains on the Georgia
road between Augusta and Atlanta
were robbed of express matter. Last
nights train from here for Atlanta met
the same fate. Express Messenger
Corput, of Atlanta, who is in place of
one of the messengers who were robbed,
was in his car unsuspecting. Above
Messina, man entered and commanded
him to open the safe. There are two
stories of the robbery. One is that Cor
put refused to comply, at the same time
drawing his revolver, WhereuUOn the
robber fired, the ball penetrating his
hat, but not touching the messenger,
who returned the shot. Corput thinks
he hit the robber, as there are spots of
blood on the car floor. Detectives and
express officials visited the scene, but,
strange to say, can find no evidence of
where man jumped from the tram,
II he left 1t at all. COrput
reached Atlantt this morning, and his
story cannot be positively known here.
Another account of the affair is that the
robber covered the messenger with a
pistol and commanded him to open the
safe and hand out the money, which
C0rput proceeded to do. Quickly draw
ing his pistol, while apparently obeying
the rObber, he reached around to his
left side and fired through his coat, hit
ting the man, who in turn fired, sending
ball through the messengers hat, and
fed. The condition of the ground along
where the robbery occurred is soft, and
the trainmen say that man could not
have jumped without leaving footprints
and evidences of where he landed, but
| none are to be found. The whole affair
is wrapped in mystery. as the robbers

only slightly embarrassed, and no rea-
son can be assigned for his absence.
Reports were received from Grand
Forks a day or so ago that he passed
through that city bound west.
Further than this not word
has been heard of him. At
taches of his Office state that for some
days before his disappearance he was
frequently noticed sitting at his desk
with his head resting in his hands. and
would remain in this position for an
hour at time, which leads to the sup
position that he must be temporarily de-
ranged. Since his departure his daugh-

His wife is nearly frantic with grief,
and is buoyed up from complete prostra-
tion by the hope that some word will
soon be heard from him or he will soon
return to his home.
