sideration; that II would be consid-
cred at the proper time. and that the

PLOT TO ROB A TRAIN.

ST CLOUD. Mimi, May 25.-It seems
that the shooting and arrest of two men
by Chief Of Police Nick elvery interfered
with big express robbery plot 1t is
thought that the wounded man, who gave
his name as william Henderson, and
who is now at the hospital knows all
about the dead man and was implicated
In the highway robbery just before the
shooting He admits that Henderson Is
not his right name and says he will tell
all he knows later on.
While probing for the bullet last night
the physician put him under Ch.orOform,
and during the time he was under the
influence OF the anesthetic he talked
about $4,000 express robbery which
had been Planned upon the Northern Pa
cific at St. Paul.
Clifton, who was killed. is supposed to
be the same man with whom Conductor
Eastman. of the Wilmar train. had an
encounter AT Big Lake station some days
ago. Eastman and some Of the passen-
gers We're of the opinion that he was a
train robber. The conductor held him
at bay with revolvers while his train
pulled out. and kept him from getting
on. Henderson's condition is very critical.
