ROBBERS FoILED
Express Agent Couldn't Open the

KANSAS CITY, August 17.-Passsn-

up last night, left here yesterday morn
ing for Fort Worth, Tex.
According to the official report re-
ceved at headquarters at Topeka this
morning, the train was boarded at Ed
mond, o. T., by two or three men, who
climbed over the engine tank and COW
cred the engineer with revolvers as soon
as the train left the station, command
ing him to stop at the next road cross
ing. The engineer obeyed, and at the
road crossing five or six more men were
found in waiting. Some OF them COM
menced firing as soon as the train
stopped, for the purpose of keeping the
passengers and trainmen in the cars,
while others entered the express car.
They commanded the expressman to
open the safe, but as it was through
safe from Kansas City to Galveston, he
was unable to carry out the orders and
convinced them of the fact. They at
tempted to blow the safe open with a
stick of dynamite, but failed to even
damage it. Then they drew to one side
and held a consultation, the result of
which was an order to the engineer to
"hit the road" None of the robbers

NOT NOW A DUDE
But Berry Wall Has Made Some
Money

NEW YORK, August 17.-Good times
have come again to Evander Berry Wall.
The erstwhile king of the dudes" is once
more on the high road to prosperity.
1t was not so long ago that his was a
name to conjure with. Wherever society
was there was Berry WALL Or, to speak
more correctly, wherever Berry Wall
was there was society.
Then there came a change. Evander
Berry Wall, in the parlance, went broke.
He sold his horses, he parted with many
of his diamonds, and then he went to
work.
Now comes the news that he is winner
once more. Quietly he has been playing
the stock market, and fortune has not
only smiled, but has beamed upon him.
A few hundreds have been run up into
thousands, and now, it IS said, he pos
sesses a goodly sized fortune.
But there is none of the old display.
Berry Wall is no longer king of the
dudes" Instead, he has settled down
into steady business man.

they moved away. Lieut.. Graves or the
