ANOTHER TRAIN HELD UP,

railing 90 Get Into the Express Car,
the Bandits Rob the Passengers.
FORT SMITH (Ark.), Nov. I4.-Train
No. 2, southbound, on the NJ. X. and L.
road, was held up and robbed at 10 p. NJ.
at little siding named Blackstone, five
miles north OF Muscogee. There were
fifteen men in the gang, all unmasked.
The switch was thrown and the train ran
onto track on which were several box
cars. An attempt was made to enter the
express car, but 1t was unsuccessful, The
robbers flndlng themselves foiled in this
commenced robbing the passengers, who
up TO this time had been merely kent
under guard by men stationed in either
door OF each coach. Two hundred and
Sixty dollars IN money anu eight gold
watches were secured. The robbers then
withdrew. One Of the train crew claims
TO have recognized Bill Cook as one of
the bandits.
Ihe reason that more money was not
secured laid IN the fact that while the rob-
pers were endeavoring to get into the ex-
press car the passengers disposed of much
OF their Valuables. The scene of the
nold-up IS III the midst OF the Cook rem
dezVous, all that country lying between
The Arkansas and Verdigris Rivers being
particularly suited TO the purposes of law
less bands. Almost the entire force of
Marsnal Crump Is now up in that coun-
Try. lie Is ignorant of the affair tonight.
