SIX SILVER COFFIN PLATES
SOME MORE THUNDER TAKEN BY
 BOX CAR THIEVES.
West Jones Made His Will on Piece of Paper in Which the silverware
 Was Wrapped.

Another batch of goods was recovered house of Will Jordan, one of the gang of alleged car thieves who were arrested last week.
 Among the articles found were six s!l yer coffin plates, inscribed At Rest" one for each of the gang.
 So appropriate is the inscription that it is likely that they will be put to use. The sheriff is thinking of putting one over the door of each cell containing one of the sextet
 There was also found in box of chew ing gum the Hast will and testament of West Jones, who was called to his door and shot last spring. West evidently thought his time had come, and seizing the first piece of paper he could get he made his will, making his son the sole beneficiary.
 The will was written on the paper in which some of the recovered silverware was wrapped and bears the name of the consignee.
 This is another Ink in the chain of evidence and will be used in the trial.
 West had an eye to busness and didn't want mo scrambin' " over his fortune when he was dead and gone
 It is now claimed that Wesley, a son of West Jones, gave the gang away. Wesley was accused of shooting his fa- ther and was jailed on this charge It is alleged that the members of the gang were pushing the case on Wesley to get him out of the way because of his hay ing some knowledge of their crookedness.
 Wesley, 1t is said, was too sharp for them and gave the whole story to the grand jury.

 This was the one sole and only word that Issued from his lips, but all could see that he meant to imply that this was only a small thing, intended to show Saffron Johnny that Jack Frost properly coached by Ben Jacobs could in short time check his little game, and that more of the aforesaid frost would shortly follow.

 Chauncey M. Depew. in New York, stated tonight in regard to a statement printed In an afternoon paper to the eff feet that the company had been for some 
 time watching the place waere the wreck occurred, knowing it to be unsafe:
 "This is so absurd that I do not care to make any statement. We run the New York Central for money. Its off cials ride over it almost daily in the same trains with the public. Now does it seem likely we are risking our lives? The only way we can make money out of a railroad is to make it safer than any other, and we spare no expense to do this I have wired the state railroad commissioners asking them to come at once while the matter is fresh and make thorough investigation. One of the commissioners was at the scene of the wreck on Sunay, but I want to get all of hem there."
