Bank Robbers Meet With Poor Success In
Trying to Loot Bank Safe in an
Ohio Town

WICHITA, kas., April 4.-Late tonight
word was received from the territory that
the posse had come up with the Rock
Island tram robbers, and in fight that
followed one man was killed and several
injured. Names are not given and 1T is
not likely that further particulars can be
secured tonight. The leaders OF the rob
berry, it is now learned, were Charles
Bailey and Typ Wyatt of ingalls,, Payne
county. They were recognized by ex-
United States Marshal Grimes, who was
a passenger on the train. They were
formerly prisoners in his custody and
created him courteously. The Others were
evidently local thieves from kingtisher.
The delay caused by the robbers trying TO
open the express car gave the passengers
an opportunity to stow away part of their
valuables. What they handed to the rob-
bers were such amounts as they chose
to give up. The negro porter was forced
to carry small sack and go in advance
of the bandits. Bailey kept with him to
see that everybody "chipped in, and
Wyatt held his gun ready to shoot anyone
who dared to interfere.

WESTERN CATTLE RAISERS
An Organization TO Defend Their interests
Is Being Formed
Markets Are to Be Established in Chicago,
Omaha and ST. Louis--Cheaper Beef
Will Be Obtained

CHICAGO, April 4.-The Post says: 1t
is learned from sources close TO the foun-
tain head that the cattle raisers of the
west are bending every effort to the per-
fection of an organization during the
coming season to fight the dressed beef
combine. The advance in the price of
beef has incensed instead of modifying
hem. They claim that they are only
getting small and wholly inadequate ad-
vantages from the advance in the price to
consumers, the combine taking most of
it and leaving them an Insignificant end
of the gain.
Cattle raisers are now devoting them
selves to the consideration of a scheme
Omaha, st. Louis, Kansas City, New
York and other points for the sale of cat
tie for future delivery, sale TO be made
according to recognized grades and de
scriptions. They claim that under ex-
isting methods they are absolutely at the
mercy of the combine, being obliged to
accept wharever price may be named for
go to the expense OF carrying the stock
and at the end of the contest selling at
heavier scritice than would have been at
first incurred.
They argue that they can keep their
stock on their ranges and farms cheaper
than at the other end OF the line, and
that they need not contract to deliver
their property at future date until salts
factory process can be obtained. In order
to secrme competition in bidding for
cattle futures, the scheme is said TO
the establishment of packing
houses and distributing depots, as well
as necessary machinery for the exporta-
tion of the product. so as to get in touch
with consumers at home and abroad.
This sort of thing has been talked about
in an indefinite fashion for a good while,
but it is stated on apparently the best of
authority that the plans are now assuming
practical form with immense resources be-
hind the proposition. Evidently there
is fun ahead.

ANOTHER TRAIN HOLD UP
Two Men Capture Rock Island Express and
Rob Passengers


HEN NESSEY, Okla, April 1.-Two
robbers boarded the engine as Rock ISL
and train No. ? was leaving Dover at II 80
last night, and covering the engineer and
fireman, commanded them to stop about
200 yards from the water tank. The en-
gineer, little excited, went about a
fourth of mile before stopping. One rob-
Der fired at him. Just missing him, the
ball going through the cab window. Con-
duCtor James Mack, now having heard the
shot. started to find out what was wrong.
He was covered as he approached the en-
gine and told TO climb on the engine.
They robbed him and were then joined by
others who had come up to the train. A
demand was made for Express Messenger
Jones to open his door. This was refused
and fusilade followed, in which the
messenger was wounded in the wrist. He
attempted to escape from the opposite side
of the car, but was captured by a guard
outside and made to crawl under the
train. An attempt was then made to open
the safe, but nothing could be done. Then
the robbers proceeded to ROD the passen-
gers. When the train arrived at King
fisher Sheriff Burchen and United States
Marshal Madsen of Elsino were notified
and carried TO the scene OF the hold-up
by a special train. They found the trail
about four miles west of Dover, where the
still following it. The robbers are sup
posed to be led by Dick wager, an out
law who has headquarters i'll Cheyenne
county. If the posse comes up with the
robbers fight will probably occur.
TOPEKA. KAN, April 4.-Messenger j.
W. Jones, one of the train men who was
wounded in the recent Rock Island rob-
berry, gives this account:
when the train was brought to a
standstIll | opened the door of the ex-
press car to see what was up. At that
instant L saw several men rise up from
the grass in a little rayine along the
track.
"One OF the robbers shouted to me.
Take your head back or Ill shoot it
off. | lost no time in getting my head
inside the car. | slammed the door and
locked it.
Then the robbers opened fire on the
door, at least 100 bullets perforating it.
l was sitting on a mail sack with my
Winchester across my knee when [ was
struck in the left wrist and leg by bull
ct. My arm fell limp at my side Then
the robbers smashed in the door and
worked fully an hour trying to open the
safe. Failing in this they all went back
and robbed the passengers.
While they were in my car some one
carrying lantern appeared some dis
tance from the car. One of the robbers
said. Watch ME put out that light.
Then he fired in the direction of the
light and it disappeared at once. Another
robber said, Well show the Rock Island
PEOPLE that they can be held up as well
as other roads"
The railroad has offered reward of
$1,000 for the arrest and conviction of each
OF the robbers.

HALF A MILLION SHY
Reported Shortage in the Democratic Campaign

sensational story tonight regaruiris,
disappearance of $500, 600 Democratic
fund. The Post states that the managers
of the recent city campaign in which
the Democratic nominee, Wenter, was
defeated, charge his defeat to a lack of
necessary funds. and also charge that an
enormous fund has been appropriated by
five or six men high in Democratic
political circles of the city. The fund, the
Post says, was raised by the assessment
of city hall employees and others and
amounted to ABOUT $500, 900. The managers
claim to have positive evidence that the
fund existed prior to the last election,
but saw they were unable to get any of it
for campaign expenses Reputable men
of the Democratic party are said to have
become so thoroughly aroused over the
affair that they will endeavor to secure an
investigation and promise startling de-
velopments.
