DONE WITH DYNAMITE.

Express Robbery the Southern Pacific
| Railroad at Culvert Near Wilcox. Ariz.
Two Men Hold Up the Engineer and
Make Him Run the Express Car to q
Rendezvous. Where the LOOting Takes
Place.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb 1.-The officials
If the Southern Pacific Railroad Co.
were notified yesterday morning OF
the robbery of the west-bound over
land train, No. 20, at $50 Wednesday
night near Wilcox, Ariz.
From dispatches received, it appears
that five men were engaged in the
robbery, four having been present at
the place where the express car was
looted, while the fifth is known to
have been in company of the four
when they were seen in and about
Wilcox previous to the robbery. He
was probably not far away when that
event occurred.
The actual work of the robbery was
done by two men who boarded the
cars at Wilcox and when two miles
west of town suddenly appeared in the
cab of the engine with drawn pistols
and compelled the engineer to stop the
train. While one of the robbers kept
him covered. the other ordered the
fireman and brakeman to cut the ex-
press and mail cars loose from the rest
of the train. The engineer was then
ordered to pull the two detached cars
on for two miles to culvert, where
two more of the bandit gang were
found holding horses for the entire
party.
1t was here that the safe was blown
open, the men.with the horses having
brought explosives. Six explosions
were caused by the robbers before they
felt satisfied with their work. AS re-
suit the top and sides of the express
car were thoroughly shattered and the
express company's safe was blown to
pieces. A great deal of money was
scattered about and the express agent
from Wilcox, who afterwards visited
the scene, picked up about 700 Mexi-
can dollars, which the robbers had not
been able to collect.
Besides $4,000 in Mexican money
there was considerable coin on the
train which had been sent to pay rail-
road employees along the line.
After the robbery the men mounted
their horses and rode in a southerly
direction. OF the two who boarded
the train one is described as being five
feet nine inches in height and of dark
complexion, the index finger of his
right hand being missing. The other
was light complexioned and about five
feet seven inches in height.
1t is reported that Grant Wheeler,
known to be a desperate character,
was seen in Wilcox previous to the
robbery, and that with him was a
stranger, who purchased eleven pounds
of giant powder and fifty feet of fuse,
besides twenty giant powder caps.
He told the storekeeper that he was
mining at DeCabas, and that he could
not take any more, as he had come in
on horseback.
Grant Wheeler and the stranger are
supposed to be the two men who
brought the horses to the scene chosen
for the robbery. Another man was
also seen in the company of Wilcox.

A FRU:TLESS SEARCH
For Survivors from the Lost Elbe-Ad-

For Survivors from the Lost Elbe-Ad-
verse Comment.
LONDON, Jan. 31.-The tug Dis catch
returned to Lowestoft this aftern DON,
having proceeded forty-f five miles in
her search for any persons who may
have been fortunate enough to get
away from the Elbe in the missing
boat or by clinging to wreckage. The
Dispatch reports that nothing what
ever was seen of boat or wreckage.
The storm is now raging more
wildly than ever, and it is impossible
that any small boat can have lived in
the heavy sea. or if it should have
weathered the gale that any of its oc-
cupants can have survived exposure to
the bitter cold until this time.
A great deal of adverse comment is
caused by the fact that of the twenty
persons saved from the Elbe, fifteen of
them belong to the ships crew, and
that the boat in which they saved
themselves contained only one wo-
man and no children Attempts
have been made by some of the
survivors to account for this, but
in no case in a satisfactory way. Even
not originally taken into the boat, but
was picked up in the water.
We're the water-Tight Bulkheads Closed?
LONDON, Feb. 1.-The Morning pub
fishes letter from a correspondent in
which the writer says he has frequent
ly crossed the Atlantic on the Elbe
and asks whether the water-tight COM
partments failed to serve their pur-
pose. Tie Elbe was divided into such
| compartments by transverse bulkheads
| running up to the main deck. These
| were fitted with patent doors, enabling
the passengers and crew t. pass COM
| pletely through.the ship without going
| upon the main deck. The correspondent
says: I'VE passengers, under ordinary
| circumstances, never saw these doors
| closed. If they were effective when
closed, the question arises, were they
closed when the collision occurreda
Half of the vessel would float much
| longer than twenty minutes if the
| water-tight bulkheads were in order,
even though the other half of her was
