A Railroad Fortress.

The prevalence of train robberies
have M de IL necessary for express and
railroad companies to convert their
treasure traius into veritable railroad
fortresses. One of the best guarded
trains IN The country, say s the Express
Gazette, Is the SPECIAL express train be-
tween Chicago and New York, over the
Michigan Cent al and New York Cen
trail railroads. the arsenal carr h as
been featur e OF Chis express train for
six years, and was built by the Michi-
gan Central to tue order of the Ameri-
can Express company. The arsenal"
is hooked on behiud the messenger
local car, which is next to the engine
of the train. The crew of the arsenal
Is composed of four men who carry
strapped TO their persons SiX-ShOt 49,
Galore revolvers, and d belt with fifty
extra cartridges. In addition to these
each guard carries what is known as a
riot gun, being a siX-shot repeating
gun, dlscharging cartridges made up of
twelve buckshot.
Inc car does not differ materially
from an ordinary express car in appear
ance, but it is of special construction.
The idea Is to carry ia this car a guard
for the entire train. The car is bullet
proof, lined with steel plates half an
inch thick. There are doors at either
end of the car. There is in each of
these peek hole" through which Il
gun can be ranged and fired. On
either side of the car is steel projec-
ton foot wide and extending from
the level of the window-sill to the roof.
AT each end at the side of this arrange
ment port hole is provided, so that a
rifle may be used to sweep the side of
the train, front or rear, or to shoot
from the side hole in anv direction.
There is also within the cara bomb
proof chamber, to which the guards
cou retreat in the event of a deter
mined and organized attack. This
BON b-prOof room extends above the
roof of the car and in the cupa 10 formed
there is room for two men armed with
riot guns. who, through apertures made
for the purpose. keep 4 constant watch
upon the top of the train. On racks
built in the bomb-pro"f car are six ex-
ira riot guns, a small caisson containing
and rapid firing Hotch-
Kiss gun, which would, when brought
into action, annihilate brigade of rob-
OerS.
