As hostler was taking an engine from

four indusiriais jumped on the engine and
drove the hostler of with pistols. They
then ran the engine up the track half a
mile, when 20 more industrials were taken
on board. They took wild ride east to

point the industrials we're warned that
the rails would be taken up east, and they
were advised to stop but they paid no
