Seven Masked Men Hold Up a Train Be
tween Richmond and Washington.
RICHMOND, Va Oct l 2-The northern
bound passenger train on the Richmond,
Fredericksburg and Potomac railroad,
which left here at : o'clock tonight, was
held up near, Quantico. The engineer
and fireman were forced from their engine
and the engine was cut loose and sent
ahead. The expresscar was then entered,
the messengers covered with pistols, and
the safe blown open and robbed. The
runaway locomotive was stopped at
Qnantico by obstructing the track.
1t is stated here tonight that there was
an unusually large amount of money on
the train, probably $4,000 The robbers,
seven in number, were masked and did
not blow open the safe, as first reported
They forcel the messenger to open it.
The railroad company has offered $1,000
reward for the arrest of any one of the
robbers.
The express messenger, 3 F. Crutch-
field, and his helper, H. Murray, barred
the doors of the express car, but these
were blown open with dynamite. After
the robbery the thieves made off with
their Doodle in the direction of the Po-
tomac river, where it is supposed they
had boat in waiting to take them to the
Maryland side, None of the robbers
entered the passenger coaches. The oper.
ato at Brooks, six miles from Quantico,
discovered that the engine was wild" as
it passed his station and telegraphed to
Quantico, where a switch was opened so
that it was brought into collision with
two loaded freight cars and wrecked.
Had the locomotive been permitted to
pass Quaotico it would have collided with
the south-bound passenger train.

WILL NOT SPEAK FOR HILL.
Carlisle Wishes Him Well, But Declines to
Enter the Camnaign.

WASHINGTON, October 13.-The fact
that Secretary Carlisle has not yet mott
fed the democratic manager in New
York whether he will make any cam
paign speeches in that state has been
regarded in some quarter as an indica-
ton that he is not interested in the
election Of Senator Hill as governor of
that state. This is a misconception of
the secretary's position. Mr.. Carlisle
has not commented on the situation in
New York, because he does not know
much about it, and because his inter
ference in the state politics of New
York, he thinks, would be without
warrant and beneficial results. Aside
from this Secretary Carlisle has no hes
itation in expressing his desire for the
success Of the regular democratic ticket.
and has authorized a statement to this
effect. He is a thorough democrat, and
as such desires his party to succeed in
New York. Should Secretary Carlisle
not make any speeches in New York his
failure could only be regarded as indi-
eating the pressure OF his official duties.
