the robber went to work ON the register
ed mail pouches, which he forced the
men to open. The packages were
handed to him, and with the utmost
GOODNESS the fellow took a seat and
opened the first package and then an
otner, using his gun to break them.
There was one pouch fr m Portland to
st. Paul, one Tacoma to Washington,
one Tacoma to Chicago and one Taco
ma to New York.
During all the time he was with his
prisoners he kept up running talk and
joked with the crew over his poor
success in getting valuable plunder.
Two or three times he expressed re-
gret at having been forced to kill the
engineer. whom he characterized as
foolish for trying to resist.
The robber declared: "If there s
anybody who wants to know who /
am, tell'em I'm the same fellow who
held up the Southern Pacific out of
Portland last fall" Only meager de.
scription Of the daredevil robber could
be obtained. He is described as a
small man, not over five feet four
inches in height and weighing less than
100 pounds. He was heavily masked
and wore a peculiar shaped cap, which
he pulled down over his face and neck.
The Northern Pacific has posted
notices of $4,000 for the capture of the
man, dead or alive. Officers believe
that the outlaw is headed north and
that his capture will soon be effected.
Old settlers, however, who know the
country and its roughness, say there is
little Likelihood of the man being caught
in the mountains, as this section of the
country is veritable hole in the wall
and wild and thickly timbered. This
train is known as the North Coast
Limited, is the finest train on the North
ern Pacific system and is the first hold
up in the history of the road.
An interesting fact has been brought
to light in connection with the holdup
through the stories of the three train
men who were made captives by the
outlaw. They were compelled to run
about the cars shouting at the top of
their voices to give the impression there
was gang of bandits robbing the train.
1t is practically conceded by Sheriff
Prescott that Alfred Van Hagel, arrest
ed on suspicion of being the robber, had
no connection with the affair and was
released.

FOR THE CONSCIENCE FUND.
Unique Method Adopted by Sender to
Insure Moneys Safe Arrival.

One of the most unusual contributions
to the conscience fund ever chroniclet
IN the history OF the Treasury Depart
ment was received yesterday. Trusting
neither the mails nor the public officials
some possessor of an uneasy con
science, sent to the strong box CT the
nation a $50 gold certificate in sections
He tore tie bill in half and mailed one
part to the collector OF customs in New
York. and from Jersey City. y. J., he
mailed the other hals to the Treasury
Department. Accompanying this part OF
the bill was a letter signed "Conscien-
tia" There was no other clue to the
sender
The Treasury Department naturally
received the other half of the bill from
the collector OF customs at New York.
Mr.. Stranahan promptly forwarding his
installment of the conscience money.
When both pieces of the bill were re-
celyed they were taken to the Bureau
of Redemption. Treasure-'s Office, and
there exchanged for brand new and
very crisp so bill. This has been placed
in the conscience fund" and the United
States IS now better able to withstand a
financial strain.
