HELD UP IN BLUE CUT.
The Spot Made Famous by the
James Gang
The Scene of Another Train Robbery
Masked Men Capture the EngE-
neer and Fireman and Rob
the Express Car.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 24.-Blue
Cut, between Independence and Glen
dale, Mo-, was the scene of another
train robbery at $40 o'clock last even
ing. Chicago s. Alton passenger train
No. IS was held up by four bandits,
who compelled the engineer to use his
coal hammer to break open safe
One of the robbers went through the
passenger cars pretending to take a
poll, while the others attended to the
express messenger, fireman and en-
gineer. It is said the robbers got but
. small amount.
This is the second time that Chi
cago & Alton train has been robbed in
Blue Cut, which was made famous by
. robbery by the James boys.
Inspector Flahive, of Kansas City,
left with posse of eight men for the
place where the robbery occurred. It
is about twelve miles from Kansas
City. The train robbed was fast ex-
press en- route from Chicago to Kansas
City. None of the passengers were
molested, and many of them did not
know robbery had occurred. The
train was stopped by displaying red
flag. Not one shot was fired. The
bandits had Winchesters, and are sup
posed to have had horses hitched close
at hand.
The train was in charge of Conduc-
tor A. ]. Fell and Engineer James
Walton. At the entrance to Blue Cut
it was tagged. Welton reversed his
engine and brought the train to
stanstill in the midst of the cut. I:
was pitch dark. He looked out from
his cab to ascertain the trouble when
a gruf voice commanded him to get
out of the cab and be quick about it
Welton looked into the muzzle of a
shotgun and obeyed. Fireman Post
did likewise. Two more men emerged
from the darkness and mounted
the engine. One of them picked
up the freman's coal pick.
The engineer and fireman were
then marched to the express car.
Messenger Andy Shields was COM
handed to open up. He at first re-
fused, but finally complied when con-
Vinced that Posts life was in danger.
The bandits then entered the car.
rifed the money packages. securing
$500 and quantity of iewelry. The
hold-up occupied altogether about five
minutes. The passengers knew moth
of it until long after the engine had
been cut loose.
Conductor Fell describes the men as
being short and heavy with dark hair.
Their faces were masked. They car
ried shotguns and revolvers. Inspec-
tor Flahive and eight picked men left
Kansas City on special train i'm
mediately after the report of the rob-
berry reached here. The robbers are
supposed to be railroad men, from the
fact that they knew how to handle
the engine.

The DastardIy Assault Upon Secretary Car
Isle at Covington Severely Criticised.

Isle at Covington Severely Criticised.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 24-The treat
ment of Secretary Carlisle Thursday
night was the subject of earnest talk
among politicians of both parties in
this city yesterday. Democratic lead
ers denounce and disavow the actions
of those who assaulted the secretary,
and republicans, while condo mining
the acts committed, profess the belief
that the insult will help the cause of
sound money in that state and else
where.
1.-The conduct of the crowd at Sec
rotary Carlisle's meeting in Coving-
ton last night" said Chairman Bah
cock of the republican congressional
committee, cannot be condemned in
terms too severe. Secretary Carlisle
is an honored son of that state; one of
her representative citizens, and went
there to speak for the cause in which
he believed. He was entitled to de-
cent treatment under any circum-
stances, but especially in his own town
and among the people with whom he
was personally acquainted. The con-
duct of the crowd in assaulting the
secretary was an attack not only upon
the man, but upon the high office he
holds.
''This rowdyism," he said, will lose
the party represented by the men who
committed this dastardly attack thou
sands of votes"
Chairman Butler, of the national
populist committee, discussing the
Carlisle incident, said:
81 regret any such conduct towards
any man, however much may oppose
his position or however much I may
object to his views"
Good citizens cannot" said Mr..
Butler, Endorse such proceedings"
