PrTrsBURG, Oct 1S.-A desperate at
tempt at train robbery was made last
night near this city on the Baltimore &
Ono road At O'Clock an east bound
accommodation train ran over a dynamite
cartridge near Bissell, at very lonely
spot about fifteen miles from Pittsburg.
The hange of one wheel was blown of
and one end of a coach wrecked.
As the train had nearly reached the
end of its trip there were few passen-
gers aboard and no one was injured An
examination of the track was made and
two more powerful dynamite cartridges
were found on the rails Hsd the train
been running fast it would have ex-
pIoded all three cartridges and been to-
tally wrecked
1t is pretty well known that the inten-
ton was to wreck the mail and express,
through train from the east due few
minutes later.
