GREEK MET GREEK.
Jonas Sent to Jail For ASsaultlng Likus
With Knife.

Nicholas Jonas, indicted for an assault
on Ambrose Likus with a knife at the
tenement they occupied together at the
North End, had his trial yesterday after
noon. The trouble arose over the failure
OF the parties to agree about the evening
meal, and Nicholas picked up knife and
cut Likus In tho head and back.
Both parties were Greeks and unused
to court procedure, and this lead to a
rather amusing and for a time dscon-
certiug result for the police OF the Second
Station, for Likus at first denied, through
an interpreter, that he had ever seen
Jonas before he saw him in court. The
matter was ra!ghtened out after a while
and Likus told a straight story. He de-
MED having any quarrel with Jonas be-
fore the latter assaulted him. Likus
found Jonas without a home and took
him in and gave him shelter and money.
Jonas had demanded 75 cents and Likus
told him he would give him the money
in the morning.
Willard Il. Tanner, attorney general,
for the State and A. J. Cushing for the
defendant.
Jonas retracted his former plea when
he perceived the strength OF the States
case and pleaded nolo contendere. lie
was sentenced to 30 days i'm Jail.

HELD UP BY
ROBBERS.
Four Bandits Rob PaSSen-
gers Near Austin.
CONDUCTOR WAS SHOT
Secured Only Two Hundred Dollars
For Their Daring.
CONDUCTOR WAS SHOT
BLOODHOUNDS ON THE TRACK.

Austin, Tex, Oct Is Yesterday af-
ternoon. in broad daylight. and within IL
miles Of the corporate limits OF tie city
tho South bound Cannon Ball ON the In
ternational and Great Northern Railroad
consisting of mail, baggage and express
cars and threo coaches loaded with pas
sengers. was held up by four men aud
robbed.
The conductor of the train. Tom Healy.
was shot by the robbers, while resisting
them, but fortunately was not seriously
wounded. One of the passengers had his
shirt collar carried away by pistol ball
that was aimed at his neck, and another
got bullet wound in the hand. The
pass ,ngers were robbed Of some 500 in
money. The bandits attempted to rifle
the safe in the express car. but were un-
successful.
When the train reached Mcneil, a small
station IA miles above this city. two men,
heavily armed, boarded the train, and
took their stand on the rear platform.
After the conductor had checked up the
train he reached the platform only to find
a pistol at oaoh side of his head. The
men demanded that he stop tie train. He
declined to do so, and began to run
through the train with the two robbers
in close pursuit. He had not gone half
the length OF tho first car when the fore
most robber shot at him. bringing him to
the floor with pistol wound in the right
arm.
At this jupcture the other robber pulled
the bell cord. and the train was brought
&c standstil. 1t was evidently at the
appointed place. for the train had hardly
stopped refore two other men. whose
faces were covered with masks. stepped
out from among the trees and began
shooting into the cars. Instantly all was
confusion. The two men on the train
were Immediately Joined by those frcm
the woods and began their work.
AS the oolored train porter sprang from
the rear coach and ran for shelter, rob-
Der began TO shoot at him ana the negro
emptied IA revolver in turn without effect.
The express messenger looked out OF his
car and, taxing in the situation. left the
car and ran through the woods and was
soon lost to sight. The robbers in the
meantime leaving the men to guard the
three coaches which were packed with
passengers proceeded to the express car
and demanded that bagRaaeman open the
express safe. bat upon being assured that
he could not do so. they turned their at
tention to the passengers. They took
only money from them. not overlooking
a single cent. and walking two by two
through the cars. so as to always keep
their eyes on the passengers.
Having secured about $500 in this
manner. they uncoupled the engine from
the train. and started it oft down the
track. After going several miles they set
the lover at moderate gait and loft the
engine. The engine came into the flag
station ut Duvai, and was there captured
and the station agent returned with 1t to
the scene OF tho robbery. The train was
then brought to this city. Officers have
gone to the scene Of the robbery with
bloc oodhounds to search for the robbers.
