TRAIN ROBBER DEAD,

The Wounded Bandit of the Cotton Belt
Robbery Succumbs-Hs Wife's State
nent.
TEXARKANA, Ark, June 23.-Ratcliffe,
the wounded train robber. died Satur-
day night. He left wife and three
children. In his dying moments he
said it was too late for him to talk, but
that his wife would make statement
for him. She is a woman of more than
ordinary intelligence for one of her
class, and will make detailed state
ment of the whole affair as far as she
knew, to which she will testify to-day
in court.
The poor woman had besought her
husband to avoid the company that
brought him to his ruin, and when he
came home wounded she felt sure that
retribution had visited him. Her state
ment as taken down before a notary
covers fifteen pages, and clears up many
of the mysteries that surrounded the
robbery. She states that the persons now
In jail-Detective Williams, Napoleon
Mcdaniel and John Browley-with her
husband committed the robbery; that
Mcdaniel went through the express car
while Bromley and Williams stood
guard; that Radcliffe did the shooting
which disabled the express agent with
Williams Winchester; that Mcdaniel
shot Radcliffe through mistake, sup
posing in the darkness that the train
men had armed themselves and deter
mined to resist. The woman did not in
any way countenance or encourage the
robbery, but was enforced to silence
when the plans were being made.
Her evidence and other developments
will add great interest to the trial

Electric RAILWAYS.

After all the talk and stir that has been
going on in Ogden in the last few months,
it seems that we surely ought to have
complete system of electric rsilways COM
pleted in the near future. But the ques-
tion is, twill we get thems"
Several companies have been organized,
and petitions have been laid by them be-
fore the city council. asking for franchises
to lay their tracks In the streets of this
city. But from time to time these petit
tions have been laid aside, until the fact of
the matter is, nothing has yet been done.
A syndicate of Denver capitalists are here
in the interest of the enterprise, and if a
franchise is granted them they will begin
the work of laying at least ten miles OF
track inside of ninety days. Electric car
lines are Il o modern method of rapid
transit They make city seem much
livelier than it would be without them,
and they add greatly to the prosperity of
the place which they are in. A city the
size of Ogden can surely not be without
them much longer.
Considerable interest was manifested in
the matter at the meeting of the city coun-
Gil last night.
