Outside Of Ben Fitzpatrick. alias
Harry Longbaugh, the identity of the
men who held up the Great Northern
Westbound express at Wagner. this
state. July 8. 1900, is not exactly known.
but the superstition is that Eactey Lo-
gan, better known as kid Curry" was
one of the party of three that did the
job.
Fitzpatrick has been identified by
Fireman O'Neil of the locomotive pulling
the train as the man who covered the
engineer and himself with two heavy
revolvers during the preliminary stages
of the robbery and directed their course;
and Messenger Smith has also recog-
nized in Fitzpatrick the man who blew
the safes in the express car and sacked
about $4,000 in unsigned greenbacks
bound from the East to a national bank
in Helena.
Another man, supposed to have been
engaged in the crime. is Butch Cas-
sidy, a noted Southern desperate.
while one of the gang looked after the

from the train began to make their ap-
pearance in Nashville. Tenn. st. Louis
and a few other cities. One man. SUPP
posed to have been q member or the
gang, was caught trying to exchange
some of the stolen bills in bank in
Nashville.
The officers who tackled him, however,
were evidently not up to a swift play.
for instead of covering him with double
barreled shotguns loaded with express
messenger buckshot and asking MIN
questions afterwards, provided he sur
rendered and was in condition to talk,
they began questioning him first. The
result was that he drew a couple OF
large calibre revolvers. batted them on
the head and escaped.
A few days after this occurrence Kill
patrick was captured by detectives in
St. Louis and did not get chance to
use his guns. although he had two on
his person. Those detectives did not
stop to question him. They did not care
whether his name was Longbaugh, XII

blowing of the safes and a second one
guarded the trainmen near the car,
third put in the time shooting along the
sides of the train to prevent interfer-
ence in the work from that quarter. His
aim was good as his bullets cut colse to
the arms and heads Of persons that
protruded from car windows.
Two persons We're struck, one. young
girl, receiving bullet through the left
arm, and the other, brakeman. one or
whose arms was shattered. He had
alighted from the train to ascertain the
cause Of the stop and was shot While
walking towards the rear Of the train.
The wound received by the girl was only
of slight nature.
On the hillside two or three hundred
yards away was an old German rancher
on horseback. The gunner of the gang
did not like his appearance and took
shot at him with a rifle. The bullet
caused the rancher to dismount but did
no further damage, and the robber took
q shot at the horse. The bullet went
true to it's mark, striking the animal
near the top of the hind quarters ana
making an ugly wound.
The money taken from the express car
was thrown into a gunny sack by the
robbers who, after finishing their work.
walked leisurely across the plateau south
Of the track. crossed small stream,
mounted their horses in waiting for
them at the opposite side and rode off,
They were pursued by posse but had
such a start that the posse failed to
overtake them.
The robbers evidently had relays OF
horses like the old overland pony ex-
press riders for they made good time
for the first 100 miles. The belief that
Kid Curry was one Of the party is
strengthened by the fact that after the
pursuit of the 1,ndits was given up by
the posse Jim Winters, stockman and
rancher who had incurred the enmity
of the Curry gang for having killed one
of the Curry boys few years ago. was
shot and killed by two men who had
laid in wait for him in clump of
bushes about 100 yards from his house.
The assassination of Winters was a
real Apache Indian trick showing plain
ly that the men who did it had been in
the Southwest and learned the Indian
trick. The two men hid at point where
they could command view of Winters
doorway and waited for him to make
his morning appearance. Unconscious
of danger, Winters stepped outside about
6 o'clock and while in the act of BRUSH
ing his teeth one of the men in the
bushes sent rifle bullet through his
abdomen.
Both remained on the spot long enough
to take q few shots at messenger who
was about to start for the nearest set
Element for doctor for Winters but
their aim was not good enough to get
either the messenger or his horse. Win
tiers. however. died in great agony a
few hours later.
Nothing more was heard of the rob-
bers until some of the bank bills taken

patrick or Dennis. 1t mattered little to
them. They saw in him one man they
thought they wanted badly and for con-
venience sake named him Dennis.
After they got him they asked him a
number Of questions, but they were then
on the inside along with him.
On the following day they also arr
rested women calling herself Rose
Bullion, who was about to leave the hotel
at which she and Fitzpatrick had been
staying. She was Kilpatr4ck's side
partner. In one Of her grips was found
several thousand dollars OF the money
that had been taken from the Great
Northern train.
The alleged signatures OF the presi-
dent and cashier Of the Helena bank
appeared ON the bills. but they were
forgeries and the woman, after q few
severe sweatings. admitted having writ
ten the names herself.

bers arrived at a convenient point fol-

four weeks to prepare for his bout with
Terry McGOvern, put the real flnishins
touches to his training yesterday after
noon behind closed doors.
Large crowds have watched his daily
practice and somewhat handicapped
him. and yesterday he requested that all
be excluded except his trainers.
He boxed several hard rounos with
Charley Sieger and went through his
usual practice, which was preceded by
an eight run on the road.
A physician again examined Corbett
last night and pronounced him to be in
fine condition. Today he is taking light
exercise.

CREDIT GIVEN TO j.. J. HILL
Tor a Plan Involving the COnsOlida-
ton of All Express Business
in Hands of the
Railways.

CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-THE Record tomor-
row will say: Absolute control of the
vast interests of the nations express
companies may fall into the hands of the
railroad financial powers.
Preliminary steps toward such an OBJ
ject are said to have been taken under
the guidance of ]. Pierpon Morgan, James
J. Hill and others, who are figuring
prominently in the recently reported
railway deals, and the general
scheme has been ~outlined. The report
has it that the powers intend to conduct
the express business of the country as
regular department of railroad operation,
strong provisions being made to have
all roads act in harmony.
fSVhile nothing definite regarding the
plans is obtainable, it is claimed to be
the intention of the railroad officers to
refuse to renew contracts with the
companies where the remaining life of
the contracts is not long, and to make
outright purchases of franchises where
the contracts stin have long lives before
them. The express companies have
contracts ranging all the way from five
to twenty years and at the expiration
of their legal agreements they are at
the mercy of the railroad companies.
