EVIDENCE OF INCENDIARISM.
Alleged Attempt to Burn the Orpheon
Theatcr Building.

CHICAGO, Sept. 4-What the firemen say
was a well-arranged plan to destroy the
Orpheon Theater building. in Washington
street. opposite the City Hall, was made
shortly after midnight. The building is
four-story structure, and many of the
rooms are occupied as offices by various
firms The principal occupant is the Music
Hall Company, now operating the Orpheon
Theater. Assistant Fire Marshal Horan
and his men discovered evidences of in
cendiarism in a room on the fourth floor.
This evidence. now i'm the hands of the fire
department, consists of one large bottle
containing gasoline, two glasses half filled
with kerosene oil. and several candles
burned almost to the end. The firemen also
have a bundle of rags soaked in oil. and
quantity of charred newspapers. On the
floor train of powder also found.
7 he fire was first discovered by pedestrians
who were attracted by what sounded like
a small explosion. An alarm was given,
and the quick arrival of the fire depart
ment prevented what might have been
serious fire. The fact that the explosion
occurred after the theater was closed is re-
garded as most fortunate. IL the explosion
planned had occurred earlier i'm the
evening disastrous results might have fol-
lowed, as there were many people in the
house. The matter is being Thoroughly in
vestigated by the authorities to-day.

Engineer Henderson.

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 4.-The following de-
tails of last nights train robbery have
been received here from Fort Worth Tex:
Cotton Belt passenger train No. l, south
bound, due to leave Texarkana at 9:25 last
night, was delayed in its departure and did
not get out until IL o'clock 1t reached the
Texas & Pacific crossing, four miles south
of Texarkana, about u:25 p. m. AS it
stopped to blow, six men boarded the train.
Two of these were on the engine and
compelled the engineer and fireman to so
back and cut the mail and baggage cars
from the train. When this had been done,
the six men boarded the engine, left the
fireman with the train, and the engineer
was instructed TO pull out south. The train
was run to Eylau, small siding, where a
stop was made. While one man guarded the
engine the FIVE others went back to the
express car, forced the doors and blew
open the safe. They took their time at the
work. and when they had concluded re-
turned TO the locomotive with two sacks
heavy with booty. These they tossed on
the engine Turning TO the engineer. one
said:
Wen lust shell road you here; you
are not the only engineer in this crowd,
and / guess we can run the machine few
miles without your assistance. When you
locate your wagon figure the run in on your
mileage, as we won't put in time for the
run we make.
Putting out the headlight, the bandit
engineer opened the throttle and pulled out.
Engineer Henderson was left with the ex-
press and mail cars and the messenger and
postal clerk. He made his way to a section
house within a mile or two of the scene and,
procuring a handcar and some men to assist
in propelling il, started on search for the
locomotive. 1t was slow work. At a point
south OF Rowan. within four miles of Red
Water they came upon the deserted engine
standing on the main track. throttle closed,
lights out and no one in sight. The engine
Was at the bottom of the grade and had
either been deserted or had been left al a
point further north and was allowed by its
own weight 10 seek the level track. Engi-
neer Henderson got aboard, backed 10 the
mail and express ears and coupled up.
THE train was not put together until early
this morning. Some time after midnight
Henderson succeeded In getting his engine
and the two cars back 10 where the first
stop was made by the robbers. and the
train proceeded south to Mount Pleasant the
division point. There a full report was made
and the officials of the company ordered
everything possible done TO locate the
robbers
I'm the meantime Conductor Armstrong
and several passengers had walked back 10
Texarkana and given the alarm. Without
delay the sheriff organized a posse and
started in pursuit and the conductor
turned 10 his train. The passengers were
not mOlested. The trick was turned by men
more experienced in railroading than in
robbery. They knew the stops of the train
and were prepared for the emergency thus
to flag the engineer. and when he stopped

men who held up the Cotton Belt passenger
train at Eylau, Tex, last night are still
at large. The robbers evidently rode their
horses up Akin creek and left them stand
ing in the stream. They then used hand

press cars the robbers returned TO the

about $4,000 The expressmen, railroad and
government officials ave very reluctant
about discussing the robbery.
At noon to-day the pursuing officers re-
turned to Texarkana and reported that
they could not find single clew that would
