DARING
PERFORMANCE OF A ROBBER AT
THE DEPOT IN CHEY-
ENNE.
Stole a Mail Pouch from Under the
Very Eyes Of the Railway Mail
Clerks, Rified 1t and Made His Es-
cape-The Value Of His Plumber is
Not Yet knoWn-No Clue.

The %postofice inspection department
has an interesting job on its hands now
in the finding of a bold robber who
did a daring piece of work in Cheyenne
yesterday morning. He stole a mail
pouch from under the very eyes of the
mail clerks, carried it to a secluded
spot not far from the depot, rifled it of
its valuable contents and disappeared.
He has not yet been caught.
1t is the duty of the mail clerks in
the mail car to take off what mail goes
to Cheyenne as well as a pouch which
is forwarded to Denver at Gas in the
morning. 1t was this latter pouch
which was stolen. The pouch was
dumped onto a truck standing beside
the train and while lying there was
taken by some unknown parties or par
ty and carried to the coal chutes in the
west end of the yards and there cut
open and rifed.
All that was valuable in the pouch
was taken by the thieves. There we're
probably 1000 or 5000 letters in the
sack and these were carefully gone
over and searched for money. Torn
envelopes and letters and even unen-
dorsed checks were found lying about,
showing where the thieves had finish
cd their work. The pouch which had
been cut open with a knife was also
fo und lying near.
Postofice Inspector Bennett was at
once notified and placed in charge of
the case. Members of the Union Pa
cifc secret service have also been put
on the case and a careful search is be-
ing made in the city for the robber or
robbers. All stations in every direc-
ton have been notified by telegraph
and all trains are being watched SO
that it is expected the perpetrators
may be ~apprehended in a short time.
Some idea of the holiness Of the rob-
berry can be found from the fact hat
quite a number OF people were Oh the
platform at the depot at the time, IS
we'll as mail clerks and railroad men.
The two arc lights at the dept make
things sufficiently light to easily dis
Germ, even at night, a robber who at
tempted to commit the crime in Ques-
ton, and yet it was done.

ger Train No. 8 Near kearney,

Track but Warning Given in Time
to Prevent Catastrophe.

Cheyenne, Jan. 22.-An attempt to

opon a large pile of rock taken from
a dump near by. and placed upon the
tack for the obvious purpose of wreck
ing a train. The old fellow at once
started to remove the obstruction, but
was set upon by five men, who had
been concealed nea at hand. After
beating him into a state of insensibili.
| ty they went through his pockets and
| secured over $3.50, and then left him
| for dead and returned to their hiding
| place. He regained consciousness in a
| short time and made all possible haste
I to the pump house in the western part
OF Kearney, and telephoned to the po'
| lice of the affair. The railroad author
| tiles were at once notified that the
| track had beef blockaded and that a
! hold-up would be attempted upon train
No. 3 after it had been wrecked by the
| obstruction. A posse was Immediately
formed and proceeded to the point in
| dictated by the old a the train being
ordered to remain at Kearney unit
