not object to any of these measures this
afternoon, but / wish to give notice
here and now that no unanimous con-

Escape Of Safe Blowers.

G. S. Parker was called up at hii
home in Glover village Monday morn
ing. the 10th, AZ about 40 a. m. and
on answering the telephone call was in.
formed that three men had broken in
to the Griffin 4 Simpson store in Shelf
field aud blown the safe open. The
noise awakened party near the store
and ON going out be saw the men Just
as they were leaving he reported that
the TWO men had ulsters. Mr.. Parker
was asked to see that they did not pass
through north Monday morning. The
morning train north was searched but
no suspicious characters were found.
Mr.. Norris, who had Just come from
the summit on the helper, was inter
viewed but reported that he had seen
nothing of the men. A conductor who
had come up with Mr.. Norris was seen
and stated that when he was hurrying
TO catch the helper on the summit he
ran into another man who was appar-
emily hurrying to get aboard the
freight there. Mr.. Parker decided
that the freight should be search
ed. When it arrived at the freight
yard they boarded it and asked those
in charge if they had seen anyone
board the train. They replied they had
not. Proceeding to an empty car they
found the door partly open. A light
was flashed into the car and one man
could be seen. When he rose to his
feet two listers could be seen, proving
to the officers that it was the men for
whom they were searching. The man
attempted to come out but Mr.. Parker
refused.to allow him TO pass. The con-
ductor was asked to sidetrack the car,
but replied that he could not do it as
he was obliged to reach Newport at a
certain hour. He offered 10 have the
door of the car fastened, thus keeping
the men tight until they could be taken
out at Newport. This offer was accept
ed by the officers and Mr.. Parker and
brakeman boarded the car and rode
on top. Immediately after the train
started there was an explosion in the
car where the burglars were confined.
They had apparently blown the door
10 pieces by the use of dynamite or
nitro glycerine. The train was going
too fast for them 10 jump and they re-
manned in the car until the speed OF
the train was slaekened in passing
through Barton Landing when they
jumped out. The darkness was so in
tense that Mr. Parker, from his posi-
ton on the car, could see nothing and
was utterly powerless to keep them
from leaving the car. When they were
running they were seen by the officers
and several shots were exchanged with
them, but apparently with no one in
jured In the darkness the men sue
ceeded in making good their escape.
