Albuquerque. N NJ, Nov. THE
train which was held 10 at Grants,
90 miles west Of here, last night at
1850, reached Albuquerque at 1880 this
morning. None of the train crew nor
passengers Were killed or injured. The
express company's loss cannoS he
learned, but it is known TO be- large.
The Santa Fe Pacific Railroad COM
pany lost a combination baggage and
express car, a day coach and a chair
c2r.
The holding UP Of the train was ac-
cOmplished by two men, who boarded
the train at Grants. At the stock
yards, about mile east, they put on
the air brakes and began shooting at
a number of tramps that were scat
tered along the train. Most of the
passengers and many of The trainmen
thought that some of the crew were
having trouble with the hObOs, and
were not alarmed until the robbers
were in possession of the train.
BEGAN SHOOTING.
The hold-ups began shooting into the
engine cab. and Harry McCarty the
engineer, jumped off and went into the
rear sleeper. Henry Abel, the fireman,
was grazed across the cheek by a bull
let and was compelled to obey the or
ders of the robbers. He was ordered
to uncOuple the express car and it and
the cars preceding it were pulled up
the track for a short distance to the
point where the work was done. When
the shooting began Messenger Lord

behind him, and went into one of the

When the robbers found the express

to open it and were obliged to fire
three shots before it gave away. On
opening the car. they went at once to
the through safe and blew a large hole
in it with one shot. The fireman was
compelled to hold the sack in which
they placed the money. They secured
all that could be conveniently carried
by one man and paid no attention to
watches and jeWelry which were left
scattered over the floor of the car.
They were very cool throughout the job.
which took them about an hour.
No horses were seen, but it is pre-

with them at some point near by.
When they left the fireman got or the
engine and started back for the rest of
the train. While he was firing up as
he went back, he did not notice now
close he was to the other cars and
struck them so hard that a stove in the
day coach was overturned. Three of
the cars. the express, day coach and
chair car. were entirely destroyed by
the resulting fire. Most of the baggage
was saved. although there was some
loss. The contents of the three safes
which were not cracked were almost
entirely destroyed by the heat No
clue whatever has been found as to the
identity of the robbers.

OHIO DEMOCRATS.
Believed They Will Join the Anti
Hanna Republicans In Assembly.

Cincinnati. Nov. John r. Mclean
and party left tonight for Washington.
Mr. Mclean has been considered the
Democratic candidate for senator, and
his departure is regarded as an indica-
tiGn that he comedies the legislature to
the Republicans, notwithstanding the
numerous notices of contest. Before his
departure Mr.. Mclean held a confer
ence with Chairman McCOnville and
other Democratic leaders. There is
nothing known as to the probable poll
cy of he Democrats as a minority in
the legislature, but it is believed they
will join the anti-Hanna Republicans
in bringing out a new man for senator.
The question has been raised as to
whether 70 votes are necessary to elect
a senator, that number being a major
ity of all. If a majority of a quorum
only is necessary some might be sick
or absent, as that would be less enbar-
RAISING than to be present and vote
against the caucus nominee.
The point has also been raised as to
the succession to the governOrshiD. If
Governor Bushnell should be elected
senator by fusion, the lieutenant gov
ernor, A. w. Jones' would become the
chief executive. AS the state senate is
Democratic by 10 to IL, it is held that
a Democrat would succeed Jones and be
in line for the governorship. Among
the 10 conceded to the Democrats in the
senate is Senator Wright of Cincinnati.
a fusion Republican, who holds the bal
ance of power in that body, slnd ne is

ON THEIR TRAIL.
Marshal viii Employ Trained Men
to Pursue the Gang.

Santa Fe, n NJ, Nov. limited
States Marshral Foraker today tele-
gTaphed to Washington for authority
to employ five picked men to take the
trail OF the gang who last night held
UP the Atlantic & Pacific train near
Grants station. The marshal left for
Grants station tonight and expects to
receive an answer from the Washington
authorities there. He is satisfied that
the original Black Jack gang of despe-
radoes is responsible for this crime. He
says there are eight men in the band,
and last week he had information that
they had returned from Mexico and
were in Arizona. For some time Mar
shall Foraker has been trying to get
authority from the Mexican govern
ment to arrest this gang. he has
known the location of their stronghold
in the mountains and had hoped to be
able to bring them into the United
States to stand trial for the many
crimes supposed to have been commit
ted by them in New Mexico and ArizO-
ma, but the government of Mexico re-
fused to give any authority in the mat
ter, insisting that before any step was
taken all the evidence against Black
Jack and his gang should be laid be-
fore and be reviewed by Minister Ro-
nero at Washington.
1t is feared that before their arrest
can be effected the Black Jack gang
will have reached their mountain hid
ing place and be free from arrest IN
til Mexico can be prevailed upon to
consent to their extraditiOn.
