KNOCKED FROM HIS PERCH.

JOHN G. COMBS PLAN
To Aid In the Construction OF the Sioux
City Branch.

WASHINGTON, March 19.-John c.
Coombs, of Boston, representing the
Credits Communication Co., whose inter-
ests are located in Sioux City. appeared
before the house committee on Pacific
railroads for the purpose of seeing
where he could attach the interests he
represented to the plans suggested by
other parties.
Referring to the several changes
made in the suggestions of the Union
and Central people, he said that he
found it very hard to put salt on the
tail of bird that never lights. With
the form of security to be offered
the government still unknown, IL
was difficult for him to say his
amendment should come in. He
was confident, however, that the gov
ernment would not go out Of the
railroad business for fifty or a hundred
years, and for one of these periods
would have strong box of railroad
securities. His proposition was to
provide plan of settlement for aid
ing in the construction OF the
Sioux City branch. To accomplish
this he wanted the secretary of the
treasury to be given authority to
invest not over s4,5OO,0O0 of the fund
accrued under the Thurman act in the
securities of the Sioux City road. He
wanted this plan Incorporated in any
general plan, as he did not think II
would stand alone.

ATTEMPTED HOLDUP
On the Southern Pacific Railroad
Near Tnlars. Cal.
TWO OFFICERS WERE BADLY WOUNDED
And the Would-Be Robbef Riddied With
Bullets and Found Dead by the
Track Side Officers Had
Been Given the Tip.

TuLARE, CAL. March is.-An attempt
was made at | a. IN. to hold up the
Southern paeiticrailway's south-boufd
passenger train No. 10 between Tulare
and Goschen stations. In duel with
one of the robbers. Unier-Sheritf
Earl Daggett was dangerously il not
fatally wounde, and Deputy Victor
Reed received abullet in the shoulder
which may prove troublesome. The
robber, who is reported to be a MEM
ber of the noted Dalton gan, named
McComb, was riddled with bullets and
dropped from the tender of the engine,
rolling down the side OF the dump,
where he was found few hours later
dead.
About ten days ago Sheriff Merritt
OF Tulare received information that
I'm attempt was to be made to hold up
passenger train No. 20, north.beuud,
on the night Of the 18th, between
Tulare and Goschen. He Immediately
prepared to give the robbers a
warm reception. Wednesday night a
posse OF four deputies was placed
on train No. 20, while Daggett and
Reed were selected to guard No. 10 in
case the bandits should attempt to
throw them offathe scent and hold up
No. 10 instead of No. 20. Daggett and
Reed were seated on top of the coal
hunkers ON the tender, with their
backs to the baggage car, and when
near Tagus siding, eight miles distant
from Tulare, the engineer observed
masked man crawling over the
coal toward the officers He
shouted an alarm. but the robber
was too quick and planted bullet in
Daggett's side. Reed drew his revolver
and empticd the entire six chambers
into the bandit at short range, receiv-
ing slight wound in the shoulder In
return. The road agent dropped from
the tender leaving pool of blood be-
hind him. The train speeded into
Tulare, where Daggett's wounds
were dressed and found to be serious.
A posse was quickly organized
and started for Tagus. Before reach
ing the siding they found the body OF
the dead robber beside the track. No
trace of his accomplice, II he had any,
was discovered. The blood-stained
rifle of the bandit was also picked up.
There is still doubt as to the identity
of the dead man, but judging from
the nerve he displayed, he was nc
novice at the business and had evi.
IDENTIFY carefully planned the hold-up.
