A Train Robbery.
Daring Hold-Up by Four Men Only IL
Miles from Austin, TeIas-COnductOr
and One Passenger Wounded.

An express train was held up on the In
ternational and Great Northern railroad,
u miles from the city of Austin, Texas,
Tuesday afternoon. Two robbers boarded
the train at Mcneil, and after the train
had gone a short distance they ordered the
conductor to stop it. He refused, and they
chased him through the car and shot him
in the arm, and then pulled the bell rope
and stopped the train.
Two masked men emerged from the
woods and began shooting into the cars.
Instantly all was confusion. The two men
on the train were joined by those from the
woods. 4 passenger had his shirt collar
carried away by a pistol ball aimed at his
neck, and another received bullet wound
in the hand. The colored train porter
sprang from the rear coach and ran for
shelter. A robber shot at him and the
negro emptied a revolver in turn with
out effect. The express messenger escaped
into the woods. Two robbers guarded the
passenger coaches and the others ordered
the baggageman TO open the express safe.
As he could not do it the robbers plundered
the passengers, securing about $500 Then
they uncoupled the engine and started on
it down the track. After going several
miles they left the engine. II went to the
station Duval and was stopped and taken
back to the train, which was brought to
Austin. Officers are pursuing the robbers
