STORY OF THE CONDUCTOR.
He Insists on Being Allowed to Set
Brakes.


Denver, Colo, Aug. 3O.-A special to
the News from Cheyenne, Wyo., says:
Conductor Ed J. Kerrigan, who was
in charge Of the train when it was held
up, came into Cheyenne today. He gave
the following account of the hold-up:
We had just passed Upton when I
felt the train stopping. l knew some
thing was wrong and went I'D ahead TO
see what it was. There was a small
hre by the track, and I saw some men
going down toward the baggage car.
AS soon as l reached the engine a imam
covered me with a Winchester. and
made me hold up my hands.
When ne saw l was the conductor he
TOOK me back to the passenger cars and
told me TO Uncouple the mail, express
and baggage cars, so they could run
them down the track. 1 started 10 do
this, but the train was on a steep grade
and the passenger cars started to move
down by themselves. They let me set
the brakes on the coaches to hold them.
and then ran the front part of the train
down the track about half a mile. At
ter they stopped they ordered Wood
cock, the baggage and express man. to
unlock his cars and come out This he
refused to do for a minute: then when
car 1 told him to come out, and ne
did so.
Demolish the Cars.
''They took the engineer, Henry Wal
lerstein, the fireman, Woodcock. the
brakemen and myself down the track a
little distance and left us, guarded bv
one man, while they blew up the cars
and safes. They blew the roof, sides
and end out of the baggage car. and de-
molished the next car TO it. They put
three charges on the safe before thev
could break it open. After they got
what they wanted they went to their
horses, which were tied near by. and
fled. 1t took about an hour to complete
their work
They did not rob the passengers, but
L had hard time to keep the pas
sengers in the cars out of sight before
we cut off the front cars They shot at
one passenger TO scare HIM; another
one got TO walking around and a rob-
Der knocked him down with the butt
of his Winchester. and told him to lie
there or he would get killed. Another
old man. who was deaf. put his head
out of car window. and l got him
in in time to save his life. He did not
hear the robbers orders.
There may have been five Of them
two were at the baggage cars using dy-
Mantle, one was at the engine, one
guarding us and 1 think they left an
other with the horses. They were all
bad men and well armed. l think l
could identify them if 1 saw them
again"
Praise for Conductor.
W. NJ. Kuhns, who was f1agman on
the train, said:
Brakeman Fred Nash and 1 were on
the train. AS soon as the train stopped
l thought the engine was broken and
stepped off behind. When I heard a
shot J knew we were held up. 1 ran
back with some fuses TO warn a spe-
cial freight which was following as.
When I got back they had Kerrigan

Mccoy Goes Down and Out.

Corbett then drove Mccoy away from
him with a right over the heart and as
the Kid went back staggering, Jim
leaped after him, landing another left
smash on the same spot and the Kid
dropped TO the floor. Mccoy braVely
tried TO get up, but those three blows had
taken all his strength away, and while
he made frantic endeavors to get up
