Robbed With His Hands Up
Frank Gilmer colored was charged with
stealing watch from Newton Lloyd, an
old negro known as Pap" The two were
in barroom at the time, and the old man
was holding his hands up in the air to
have his tickets to prize drawing exam
ined He said that it was an easy matter
for a man to rob him in this position and
concluded that as Frank Gilmer was his
nearest neighbor, that he had taken the
time-piece. But as the watch was not
found on the defendant, and as there were
no other eliminating circumstances, Of
course he could not be convicted.

ATTEMPTED HOLE UP,
Plan to Hold up the N M X A.
 Fuiled-Arrests Made.

Sheriff Scot. White has added another laurel of efficiency s his record as an energetic and capable o4cer. He today caused the arrest of several mon. who are su. Psctsd of au attempt to hsld-sp the N. NJ. & A. train at . point between Fairhsuk and Coatsntisn. The carrying ou: Of the intention of the bsnd would probably have been accomplished but fer the pro~pt work of the sheriff.
 A few nights since . telegraph pole was found chopped down and the wires cut. This circumstance is mentioned e furnishing the frst-clsw of an evidently well laid plan of the would-be robb rs to hold up the N NJ. { 4. train, which passes the point where tho wires were cut, about { 80 n. For some cause the robbery did n ,t take place. but Sheriff White was soon on the trail, and by cless observation sso1 obtained . clsw which lssds him to bslI>ve he has the right parties who cut the telegraph wires with the evident intention of holding up the train. The shsriff also believes that the plan to hold up shs train had not been abandoned and another attempt was contemplated, thus the nm mediate arrest of ths sus- poets followed.
 The p.rtis. arrested are Mexicsns, who have been in the viciaity of Con- tention. There are three principals. and is thought several others are im- plrcstad. The prisoners are expected here tonight when furthur particulars can be had.
