ANOTHER TRAIN ROBBERY
THIS TIME IT OCCURRED IN THE IN
DIAN TERRITORY.
The Robbery is Accredited to the Dalton
Gang Who Are Supposed to be in
the Territory-The Swag
Amounted to $4,000.

DENIsoN, Tex, Sept. 1G.-EXpress
No. 3, bound south on the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas railroad was held
up by masked men last night at S:15
o'clock, the robbery took place at
small station, Lillilietta, four miles
north of Waggoner, the junction Of
the Arkansas Valley railroad and the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas.
The following particulars are OBJ
tanned from one of the train men: At
S:l5 the train had slowed up to let off
two passengers at the little depot in
the prairie. Just as it came to stop
two men climbed into the engine cab
and presented Winchester rifles to
the head of the engineer, and forbade
him to move the engine. At this
moment two men entered the baggage
car and asked the baggageman,
Minch, if he was the express messen-
ger. "No," said Minch. "He is
further up" They both turned
from the car and jumped
off to the ground, where they met
their two confederates going up to the
head end with the engineer Here
all of them, six in number, congre-
gated, having in charge the engineer
and porter, who had run up from the
rear. Three men climbed into the
express car and covered Express Mes
senger j. b. Herrin with winchesters.
One guarded Herrin while the other
two went through the express matter.
One bag Of silver was found, which
the express messenger threw out on
the ground.
"Open up that safe" said
the leader, Il tall man,
with Il mask over his face. Cant do
it. Don't know the combination. -
eff you don't open it I'll kill you,n
said the tall robber. Just here Con-
ductor Jim Smith came up, and he
verified Herrin's statement. Then a
few packages were broken open and
one of the men confiscated pair of
shoes, whereupon the men climbed
down with Herrin in front, and all of
them started for their horses which
were hitched at the stock pen. Herrin
was with them, carrying the "swag."
A IRVING at the horses they relieved
the messenger of his load, mounted
the horses and left for the north.
When leaving one of the men fired off
a pistol, the only shot fired during the
entire transaction.
The trainmen started up shortly
and went into Waggoner, where the
alarm was given and posse of men
started after the robbers. Lillilietta
is a side track with only the depot for
a town, and it was near there where
a train was robbed last
year. The express people are very
reticent about the robbery and will
say nothing, but the robbery is cred
tied to the Dalton gang, who are at
present making raids in that country.
The loss is reported at $4,000, but
this is not verified. Six men, all
masked with red cloth, were engaged
in the robbery. The leader
a tall man about 6 feet 2 inches did
all the talking and was very polite in
his demands. All Of the men are de-
scribed as tall, slim fellows, quiet,
yet business-like in their demeanor.
Already fully 100 men are in pursuit,
but owing to the rough country the
robbers will probably escape.

and the formation of a distinct organ
ization, Therefore
Be it resolved, that such purpose is
not, nor has not at any time, been the
intention of this meeting, but that it's
object is purely one of expressing it's
opposition to the proposed subtreas-
ury and land loan enactments and to
institute an educational movement in
that direction, thereby bringing the
organization back to those principles
of wisdom, justice and fraternity on
which it was originally based.
On motion the resolution was re-
ferred to the committee on resolutions.
A motion to take recess until p. m.
was carried.
Upon reassembling at $50 o'clock
the committee on resolutions reported
back the Smith resolution with the
recommendation that it be adopted.
A motion to adopt the resolution was
unanimously carried, and then the
committee on permanent organization
asked for further hearing, saying
that they had another communication
to present.
The following was then presented:
Believing that the future policy
and prosperity of the government
and of the Farmers Alliance and
Industrial Union depends, in
large measure, upon the action of this
body in setting forth plans for work
in the future, and fully realizing the
fact that we need the hearty co-opera-
ton of all the people, and especially
the members Of our order, and, in
order to secure the same, we recon-
mend that the members in each state
who oppose the subtreasury and land
loan schemes and government owner
ship of railroads, and who are not
represented in this meeting, be re-
specially invited to cooperate
with us, and are further
requested to proceed to
and elect one member from
each state who shall become a men,
Der of the National Central Committee,
provided for in the report of the COM
mittee on permanent organization.
Without debate, this report was
adopted. Then a somewhat acrimoni-
Gus discussion arose over the presenta-
ton on resolution to endorse the
farmers World, of Dallas, Texas.
several Vi Gne ueleSaGeS ulu uOu pro-
pose to pull any body's chestnuts
out of the fire and made vigorous pro-
test against the resolution, but the
matter was finally smoothed over by
an explanation by the Texas delega-
ton that the reason they wanted the
paper endorsed was because il had
been tabooed by the subtreasuryites
because ofits opposition to the scheme,
and the World and Journal of Agri-
culture OF st. Louis were both en-
dorsed as yoicing the sentiments of
the ants. The convention then adj
iOurned sine die.

LIZ IL, COMES.

THE STATEsMAN's attention has
been called to the following paragraphs
found among its contemporaries
editorials:
Dallas Times Herald: Austin is to have a
morning paper about covers that field
race for public patronage there us right smart
chance for some one to drop n large SIZED
bundle of filthy lucre.
Taylor Tribune: 'Tis said a new morning
paper is to be started in Austin. The man or
men who start it are very foolish. Austin has
always refused to give her papers the support
they mcritcd.
Fort Worth Mail 1t is rumored that a new
morning paper will soon be started in Austin in
the interest of the liquor men.
THE STATESMAN has been hear
ing about a new morning paper
to be established in Austin for 10
these many years. Others outside
the city now seem to know more
about this new move than we do our
selves; doubtless because THE STATES
MAN is too much engaged now in
trying to build up Austin by extend
ing her trade to Llano to take time
to chase down every rumor of this
character. We will with even tenor
continue the cry of on to Llano! and
if the proposed venture does material
ize we will try and do more than di-
vide territory with it, while pledging
our people to still continue to work
for Austin's advancement with the
same zeal as heretofore.

Capt. Sidney Russell, whose mind
was seriously impaired some months
ago by an attack of paralysis, wander
ed from his home, near Leemont,
last Monday, and forced an entrance
into the dwelling of two young men,
Messrs. Bradford, living near Melfa
station, during their absence from
home. On their return, finding him
in their bed, they asked him to leave,
which lie not only declined to do, but
barred tie door against them, when
they left the house to confer about
the matter. The door being broken
open by them Capt. Russellretired to
another room and shutting the door
declined to let them enter. The
young men seriously alarmed and
hardly knowing what they were
doing, shot through the door, the
ball entering the. abdomen OF Capt.
Russell, infiicting probable fatal
wound. In fact at the time we go to
press the report reaches us that he
is dying. Capt. Russell, of course,
was not responsible for his acts and
the young nen not knowing him,
under the circumstances, cannot be
and are not blamed by anyone. Tho
sad misllap has cost gloom over the
entire community at Accomac c. H.,
and vicinity whore Capt. Russell was
held in high esteem by everyone.

SPECIAL PREMIUMS.

SPECIAL PREMIUMS.
MR.. EDIToR:-The Board of Direc-
tors of the Cape Charles Fair, at it's
last meeting, decided to give silver
cup, to be trotted for by stations on
the Eastern Shore, that have not q
record better than 3 minutes. The
object of having this exhibition of
speed is to crafty the public, who
prefer and are anxious to see the fast
trotting bred horses trot, rather than
be told about it. The competition
for the cup is free-no entrance fee
and it is to be hoped that the breed
ers of the two counties will have a
full opportunity to see the speed OF
the sires of the future horse stock Of
the Eastern Shore. The older horses
are we'll known and it is a gratifica-
tion to know the speed of them.
Walker Morrill, srecord is 2:37-Gray
Eagle is better than that-Gray Nor
gan has gone in 2:42-Signet 9:20-
Clay trotted in s:s1-sweepstakes
ben Bull's) horse has trotted in 2:29-
Marandes has paced in 2:17-Twilight
in about 2:50-:Orphan Boy 2:25. Now
what can the young stock do is the
question? The cup will be given to
the winner and on it will be engraved
the name of the horse, date, record
and name of owner. Let all enter
