MoLoKEME HILL, Gala, Oct. 10
George and James Tipp, aged nine and
seventeen years respectively, were
probably fatally injured yesterday by
the explosion of box of giant powder
caps. A man named Colds saw the
boys coming down the road locked
arm-in-arm, staggering from side to
side. Ga the near approach he saw
that they were both terribly mutilated.
The left hand of James was gone. His
sight was destroyed, and his head, face
and upper part of his body was cut and
SCARED by fragments of metal. One of
Georges eyes was gone and he will
lose the sight of the other. The first
and second fingers and the thumb of
his left hand we're shot of. James's
hand was found near the place of the
explosion, still holding half-burned
cigarette. 1t was spark from the
cigarette that caused the explosion.

THE TRAIN ROBBERY.

AS far as is known there is no clue
to the men who robbed the railroad
train at Quantico Friday night. The
theories in connection with the rob-
berry are so numerous that it is not
worth while to enumerate them. The
latest theory was advanced yesterday:
II is that the robbery was the work of
the Dalton gang, which operated SO
long in Missouri.
Police authorities in Washington do
not take any stock in the alleged theo-
nv that George Carter, crook, with a
well-known police record, has had any
thing to do with the robbery, because
he is so we'll known that trainmen and
nearly any other citizens living along
the railroad would have been almost
sure to recognize him. 1t is believed
that the train robbers, after the hold
up, made efforts to get on the river
and mingle with the small craft in
Chesapeake bay, and there become
practically lost to pursuit until the al
fair quieted down.
SOne CTlllClSm LAS uCCu Luauo Do-
cause the rewards for the arrest of the
robbers are very small, and the fact
that the express company, which is the
heaviest loser, has offered no reward at
all for the apprehension of the robbers.
This is explained by the statement that
the express company, doubtless, has
employed Pinkerton detectives. and
that the Pinkertons operate as firm OF
attorneys, getting a retainer and regu-
lar fees for work done. The Adams
Express Company officials say they
have everything well in hand for the
capture of the train robbers. "They
cannot get away from u.s." said Mr..
Herring in Washington yesterday.
eve have the best detectives to be
had, and enough of them to watch
every point. 1t makes little difference
where they go, they will have recep-
ton they will be hunted down." The
express officials are working with the
heads of police departments in every
city, and the law officers in every sec
ton of the country where the train rob-
bers are liable to appear.
