is british and degrading. In an age
like this, when there are so many enor-

make all the more perfect the condi-
tion of the schedule of the Seaboard,
for 1t is likely that the whole story
about Captain McBee's resignation
from the superintendenoy of the old
Richmond and Danville has never come
to light.
There was good deal of talk about
1t at the time. Captain McBee had
done great deal towards making the
old Richmond and Danville what it
was. He was looked upon as the best
superintendent in the section. And
yet when the Southern bought the old
Richmond and Danville with sudden
ness mysterious to contemplate Cap-
tain McBee sent in his resignation to
the company.
1.-The full story may or may not have
ever come to the top surface, but it is
believed that the recent appointment
OF Captain McBee to take charge of
the transportation department of the
Seaboard, deadly rival of the South
orn, will mean that he will work Just %
little harder to do his rival than he
would under ordinary circumstances"

a POPULAR RAILROAD MAN.
Capt. hcBcc is Made II General OH
Ger Ofthc ScaDOard Air Line.

Captain V. e. McBee, formerly SUI
pcrintendent of tho Richmond and
Danville lines in North and South
Carolina, has been appointed general
superintendent of Transportation Of the
Seaboard Airline system, with head
quarters in Atlanta. The exact date
OF the assumption of his duties has not
yet been announced. This position will
place him next in rank to General
Manager John III. Windcr, of that sys-
tom. The office to which he has been
appointed is a new ono said to have
been created for him. The Scaboard
Air-Linc system formerly had no trans
pOrtation supcrintendcnts, but the du-
Ties OF such officers were conducted by
the masters OF trains. Captain McBcc
is known as a railroad genius, and his
great abilities for ne management of
men are everywhere recognized. He
began his railrOadipg when he aided
in the building of the Western North
Carolina road. He then became super
intcndent OF the Charlotte, Columbia
and Augusta railroad and raised it out
OF the mire. Then he became superin-
tcndent of the Central of Georgia, re-
signing that position to become super
intendent of the Richmond and Dan
willie lines In North and South Carolina.
This position he held until the rec, Mt
change in management under the iu"-
nation of the Southern railway. The.
Is no man more generally loved
South Carolina than Bunch McB
as he is familiarly called. He is anc-
phew OF Senator Butler and is a strik-
ingly handsome man.
The Atlanta Constitution makes the
following comments upon the appoint
ment:
The appointment Of Captain V. Il.
McBee rs general superintendent OF
transportation OF the Seaboard Air
Line causes quite deal of interest in
the railroad world.
Captain Mci}ee is the most noted
railroad superintendent in the South,
perhaps, and is liked by every body.
He is n Napoleon when it comes to
manipulating the transportation de-
partment of railroad, and did as
much to make the old Richmond and
Danville as perfect as it was in this line
as any man in the entire directory of
officers.
The fact that Captain McBec has
accepted position with rival limo Of
his old company, the Richmond and
Danville, springs tho prediction at the
first blush that he will be ever alert to

with them. IL our supervisors will
organize their chain-gaugs and work
one of the principal roads, leading to
the court house or cotton mills in the
country. where our farmers do most of
the hauling, in u few years we would
have perfect roads and saving to the
farmers in mule flesh and wagon
fixtures sufficient to support the entire
penitentiary. On u good road one
mule can haul to market as much as
four under our present system of roads,
and this means a great saving to our
people.
This law has been approved by
several road congresses which have
convened since its adoption, and we
are satisfied that if it is properly en-
forced it will be of more benefit to our
people than any measure enacted in
the history of our Legislature.
There are other feature of the law
which we will call to the attention of
our readers ut another time, and which
to elaborate now would make this
article too long. Let our county
supervisor get copy of the law and
study it, for he' has chance to make
himself famous by giving to our peo-
pie good roads, which the law con-
templates.

THE ACQUIA TRAIN ROBBERS.
Two Men Accomplished the Daring
Dced--The Confession ofScarcey and
Discovery of the Stolen Bonds.


One of tho train robbers who made
such haul at Acquia Creek, between
Fredericksburg and Washington, has
made full confession, and tells how
the robbery was accomplished. His
name is Charles j. Searcey, and he
was arrested at Cumberland, Md. His
accomplice was man named Morgan
field, and he was taken up as
suspect in Cincinnati. Searcey was
carried back to Virginia, and before
he was taken to the Jail in Fredericks-
burg he made confession to the au-
thorities.
There were but two men concerned
in the robbery. Morganfield and
Searcey. They had known each other
before and had talked Of a scheme OF
that Sort but Searccy for some time
refushed to go into it. They finally
met in Washington and there agreed
to rob Il train, but fixed on no particu-
lar one. From Washington they went
TO Fredericksburg and hanging about
there for two or three days, staying
in tho woods most of the time, but
going into Fredericksburg several
times. On the afternoon of the day of
tho robbery they walked to Brooks
Station from fredericksburg and there
waited for the northbound train. They
got on the train Mt Brooks In the dark
ness, behind the tender, having been
hidden near the pickle factory under
u box car. When the train stopped
they had no particular reason for
| selecting Acquia Creek as tho spot
for the robbery. MorganGeld blew
open the car door with dynamite,
iusing a hall stick with fuse and cap in

the end. Morganfield also entered
the car, vile Searcey stood outside
and terrorized the train crew and pas
sengers.
After the robbery they got off the
engine and struck northwest over the
country road, going to Calverton Sta
tion in Fauquier County and then to
Midland and Balston and on by the
Fauquier White Sulphur Springs,
Royal. Near Calverton, they hid in
the woods some of the goods they had
gotten from the express car.
After being taken to Calverton,
Searcey offered to go where these
things, consisting mostly of bonds and
bank drafts. were hidden. On Monday
he was taken in team from Fred
ericksburg with Mr.. Robert Pinkerton
OF New York, Sergeant c. w. Edring-
ton OF Fredericksburg and Mr.. w.
Seymour White, Commonwealth g
attorney for Stafford County, over the
route travelled by him in trying to
escape, to endeavor to locate the spot
where the bonds had been hidden.
Monday night the party spent with
ex-Sheriff Hugh Adle of Stafford. AT
ter breakfast with Mr.. Adie, the party
set out to find the place where Nor
garfield and Searcey divided the
money and hid the express pouch con-
tanning the bonds and drafts. Up
through the Stafford roads, they went
by Statford's store on to Bristowburg
and to Calverton, Searcey trying to
remember the road he and his pal
travelled and the place he left the
road. From Calvertion, the party
drove to Catlett's and from there back
on the road to Statford's store.
About three miles from Catlett's,
Searcey identified where they left the
road, and took to the woods. Driving
into field, the horses were tied be-
hind a hay stack, and the search for
the bag began. The shades of evening
were falling and Searcey, handcuffed to
Pinkerton, with Sergeant Edrington,
ex-Sheritf Adie and Commonwealth
Attorney White spread out through
the pines. Searcy had described the
spot exactly, but an hours search
faileo to find it. 1t was getting quite
dark, when Mr.. Adie called out that
he had found the spot, and all parties
fastened up to where, under the roots
