without q dissenting voice.
The contest for the location of the
next encampment did not crop out in
the convention yesterday, but there is
a fght on between a number Of cities
on the coast and scattered through the
middle west. The drift yesterday
seemed to be in. the directiC of Omaha;
IL was stated that the u were
pulling in that direction, g., T. could
not be verified. Now, since the officers
are practically disposed of, the fight for
the next encamDment viii be on. In
spite of all that is going on in the way
of amuselnents there viii be a business
meeting today at 1 o'clock, and the fight
on this subject VIII be due at that
meeting. although the idea is to have
it kept in the background till the fol-
lowing day.

They demolished the safe, but they got
only Sl-50 as the money had all been

Katy flyer, which runs through the
territory By day.
The passengers and clerk were forced
TO assist the bandits in their work
Every mail pouch was emptied, and the
mail considered valuable by them was
taken. Then, with Postal Clerk Tuliey
holding an empty mail sack. the rob-
bers went through the coaches and
robbed every passenger. They got $3.50
in one coach. A negro who refused to
give up his money was severely beaten
The passengers were compelled to
throw their vsluables into the pouch.
Superintendent Sam Gaines of the
railway mail service says he does not
believe the robbers got much money out
of the mail pouches
After the work was done the robbers,
who seemed to enjoy the situation, sat
around and laughed over the matter
and one even went back into a car to
get something. After holding the train
two hours the robbers left, going east
into the dense bottom timber for which
Caney creek is noted.
The trainmen cut out the wrecked ex-
press car and ran down TO Caney sta
ton and advised officers up and down
the road. Within two hours posses Of
United States marshaIs with blood
hounds were on the trail.
The express company claims that Il
lost nothing. and the conductor eSti-
mates the passengers loss at about S40O
not counting the jeweiry. Both safes
were demolished by the explosion, and
the car is a wreck.
