CLOSETED WITH A LUNATIC.
PcrilOus Situation of n Southern Railway
President,

Little Rock. Ark, May 11.-While
Colonel 8. w. Fordyce. president. of the
Cotton Belt road, was seated In his pri-
vate car at Pine Bluff yesterday he was
approached by,a strange looking man.
who demanded $1,000. The fellow held
Il package in his hand, and informed the
colonel that If he did not produce the
money inside of five mintes, his friends
and the company would regret 1t. He
said he had been working on one of the
branches of the Cotton Belt, and that
the company owed him $1,000, and that
he would not leave the car until he got
it. He would accept no check, and
nothing would satisfy him but the
cash.
Colonel Fordyce engaged the man In
conversation, leading him to believe
that his claim would be paid, while one
of the members of the party slipped
out of the rear door of the car and sum-
moned a policeman. Chief Stewart ar
rested the man and locked him up. The
package in his, possession proved to be
a small box containing a number OF
cartridges. some of the shells of which
had been exploded. He refused to give
his name or to tell where he came from.
