done without any difficulty whatever and
To the general satisfaction OF the public
Conductors coming from all points west
OF the centre OF the city should giv6
transfers for cars running north. south

eastern part OF the city should give
transfers for lines running north, south

proper precautions in order 90 avoid dis

Charles Lane, Adams express niessen-

a resident of Columbus. was shot ana
killed shortly before the train reached the
Union station in this city and the local
safe was robbed of all the money and
yaluables which IL contained.
The robbers escaped and as they were
not seen by any living person. so far as
now known, the affair is shrouded in
mystery How much booty the robbo's
secured is purely a matter of specula-

The safe robbed contained only the
packages of money and valuables coll

the officials of the express company in
sist that the sum was not large.
All the money forwarded from 81.
