BOLD TRAIN ROBBERS.
A Passenger Train on the Santa
Fe Road Attacked.
TIE MESSENGER SAVES THE SAFE

Three Men Attempt to Rob a Train
In the Cherokee strip-.A FusiIade
Between the Robbers and the Ex-
press Mcsscnger-No One Was In
jurcd.
GUTHRIE, o. T., Sept. 1O.-The south
bound passenger train on the Santa Fe
railroad was late in arriving here owing
to the fact that it was attacked by train
robbers at Wharton, in the Cherokee
strip, station twenty miles north Of
this city. The robbers had their horses
hitched near the station, and after at
tempting to rob the train remained for
some time. Wharton is little unpro-
tected station in the Cherokee strip,
where telegraph operator was killed
two years ago. This is the third time
attempts have been made to rob trains
there. When the trains arrived in this
city many bullet holes were counted on
the west side of the express car, the door
of which was broken to pieces.
The conductor, Edward Kitching,
states that when his train stopped to
take water he walked down the track
and was met by his engineer and fire
men, with three other men, revolvers
We're leveled at him, and the robbers
went on until they reached the express
car. When they demanded admittance
they were refused. by the messen-
ger, George WagneiN The robbers then
opened fire, and a fusilade followed.
Wager and his assistants stood their
ground until after the engineer and fire.
man and conductor had freed themselves
from the robbers, and the train pulled
out.
The Engineers Story.
Tho engineer gives the following ac-
count of the attempted robbery: The
train arrived at Wharton on time. Three
men mounted the engine and ordered the
fireman, Ross, and the engineer, Spoon
algher, to step down. Then they com
PEELED Ross to accompany them to the
door of the express car and told him to
batter it down When the first blow
was struck on the door, the express mes.
senger fired through it. The fireman
stepped back, but the men with cooked
rifles again commanded him to continue
work. For Gods sake, boys, don't
shoot; they are making me do it., yelled
the fireman to the messenger and again
his blows fell on the door.
1T was soon felled and the robbers en-
tered at once and broke open the safe,
but it was empty. The expressman had
opened it while the door was being
broken in and had hidden most of the
contents. Failing to find the booty
there the robbers attacked the larger
safe, but found it impossible to open.
Not being prepared to force it, they
backed out and left, taking with them
two baskets of grapes" No effort was
made to rob the passengers.
One of the robbers was stationed at the
rear Of the car and shot whenever head
appeared at the windows Many shots
were fired, both by those around the ex-
press car and by the guard at the rear of
the train" There is no clew to the idcn-
tity of the robbers.
