MYSTERIOUS ROBBERY.
Omaha Bank Cashier Found Uncon-
scious in His Berth on Train.
Other Passengers Robbed.

Omaha, Neb., Aug. 24.-Edward E.
Balch, cashier of the Omaha National
bank, was brutally assaulted and rob-
bed on the Chicago and Northwestern
through train last night, while on his
way home from Chicago, with his
family. He is still unconscious and
the police have no clue to the mys-
terious affair His wife, who occupied
an opposite berth, was not aroused
during the night, nor was any other
passenger in the car.
Mrs Edward Balch awoke about
daylight and found her husband in a
terrible condition. His head had been
beaten with some blunt instrument,
and the section he occupied was COW
cred with blood. He was unconscious
and has not yet recovered. ~ large
valse which he carried, and which is
said to have contained a sum of money
and securities, is missing. This is
supposed to have been the object Of
the attack, though several other pas
sengers were quietly robbed also.
The story current here Is that Balch
had been to Chicago as the special
messenger of his bank, the Omaha
National to bring back sum of
money. Just what the amount was Is
not made public. The bank officials
say it was only a few dollars. but it
| is unlikely that they would be using
! a special messenger to carry a small
| sum. In view of the many train rob-
| berries of late and the loss last Satur-
| day of a package containing 100000
| which was being sent from Chicago
| to Burlington, the rates have advanced

messenger. In any event, Balch had
a package of some value with him,

The trainmen say the doors TO the
| sleeper We're locked from the moment

was opened to take passengers aboard
| at the Mississippi river crossing at
midnight. Every berth was occupied
and the porter was up all night. He
says he did not see any one in the
car that did not belong there, nor
| did he hear any particular noise.
The detectives believe that the rob-
berry and assault is the work of one,

that after the thieves had secured the
booty they quietly returned to their

A number of tramps and suspicious
characters found along the road from

road in an effort to find the robbel
