An open switch on the West Side branch Of the
New-York Central and Hudson River Railroad
line was opened by some one yesterday just
before the Dolly Warden made its first trip.
An extra train of three cars and locomotive
took the misplaced switch and ran siding
in the yards of the American Lumber Company,
at 11th-ave and 5Sth-st. The engineer of the
extra" stopped his train before it reached
big fence in 11th-ave.. his train back to
the switch and set it properly in time to allow
the Dolly Warden" with 500 or 600 passengers,
to pass in safety a minute so later.
The police do not believe that deliberate
effort was made TO wreck the Dolly Warden
but that gang of young hoodlums, not know
ing that the passenger train was due, opened
the switch expecting to see a freight smash.
The railroad company asked Police Commits
sioner McAdoo that additional police protection

BRIGHTER ASPECT.
Several Causes Contribute to Better
Feeling Regarding Fever Status.


New Orleans. Oct. with the CEN
ter OF foci being wiped out. new cases
falling in number. list of sick being
reduced and death roll showing no APP
probation. the fever situation is taking
on a brighter aspect every day. both
as to city and country. only one
death occurred Monday in the whole
state outside of New Orleans. and there
was shrinkage in the number Of
cases everywhere. with perhaps the
exception of Patterson. Advices COM
ing TO the state board OF health from
a number of points are favorable to
President Souchon's suggestion of lift
Ing guarantees or at least consider
able modification of them by the mid
die OF the month or perhaps a week
later. and IL the improvement here Is
maintained there probably will be
many communities willing to take the
risk of reopening communication.
Railroad officials are receiving in
quiries as 10 the possibility of excur-
sions into the city at the time OF the
presidents visit. the date for which
having been extended two days makes
II more probable that at the time of his
coming the fever viii have been prac-
ticaliy wiped out. In many sections OF
Louisiana frost ought to occur shortly
thereafter.
Health officer Kohnke in interview
expressed the opinion that by reason
of precautions being taken children
VIII be more safe I'm the schoolroom
than In their own homes.
Federal authorities for a long time
had great difficulty tracing the infec-
ton at Banks and Dupree streets. In
spite of their efforts heretofore they
have been unable TO stamp II out in
the vicinity as the center OF Infection
and from thirty-five to forty cases
came from that neighborhood. DR.
Blue finally discovered house In
which the original cases occurred late
Monday. guaranteed il and then thor
oughly fumigated 1t.
At the opening OF the new Real Es-
tate exchange Monday night United
States Senator McEnery discussed the
question of national quarantine. and
while favoring considerable enlarge
ment OF the scope Of the marine hos
pital service said: "In framing a law
for Federal control Of quarantine there
should be the utmost endeavor to pre-
serve all positive rights remaining to
the state. No calamity. however ap-
palling should induce us to surrender
any OF these rights. We are not yet
ready to destroy the states and make
this government one Of great cen.
tralized power without any political
subdivisions. We have been drifting
that way until the near approach 10
imperial government is becoming
alarming"

HoLDUP PARTICULARS.
Two Boys Captured and Three Men Of
the Gang Escaped.

Portland, Ore. Oct. 4.-Particulars
of the holdup of the Great Northern
eastbound train leaving Seattle Mon
day night state 1t was stopped about
gage and express cars dynamited
Three men are known to have been the
ringleaders. Two boys. says a special
10 the Oregonian. who got on the blind
aggage at Seattle. as soon as the hold
up began entered the coaches and pro-
ceeded to demand valuables and cash
from the passengers. They were cap
tured. The boys say two OF the men
were on the blind baggage when they
got on and the third did so at Bal
lard. All had on rain coats and
SLOUGH hats. Manager Wasting of the
Great Northern Express company said
he did not know the amount of cash
In the safe. but It was small.
After securing the contents OF the
safe the three men started off in an
easrerly direction. 1t is believed other
members OF the gang were ahead of the
holdup and the robbers Joined them
The train was tagged near the brick
yard and as the engineer slowed up
two men with rain coats climbed over
the tender and presented revolvers to
his head. When the train stopped the
baggage and express car was uncou-
pied by one of the robbers and the en-
gineer instructed to pull ahead. which
he did several hundred yards. when he
was again commanded to stop Two OF
the robbers then jumped off making
the engineer and fireman do the same.
and all marched TO the baggage car
door. The messenger was commanded
to open the door. and refusing an extra
heavy charge of dynamite was placed
against it and exploded. The explo-
sion tore the car almost to pieces. The
safe was then dynamited.
The train was delayed two hours
and half and then pulled into Ed
monds, making a brief report before
proceeding 10 Everitt. The two boys
say they never met the men until they
got on the train and are In no way
connected with their work. The idea
TO hold up the passengers occurred TO
them after the explosion.

CONDUCTORS ACCOUNT.
Says There Were Fully Seven Men In
the Train Holdup.

tne iEdin f1oiouP.
Portland. Ore. Oct. 4.-Conductor
Grants account OF the holdup of the
Great Northern passenger train near
Ballard shows that at least seven men
were engaged in the robbery The
conductor believes there were other
men further down the track. but they
did not take part. possibly because the
train stopped too soon.
When once inside the car the robbers
began dynamiting. the first explosion
being six sticks, the second twelve and
the third eighteen.
While the robbers were engaged on
the safe the two boys who had been
riding ON the blind baggage slipped OF
and went through the train attempting
TO hold up the passengers. They haG
TO guns. but took advantage of the
iimidity of the passengers while the
dynamiting was going on outside. The
boys who gave their names as Frank
AIRED and Roland Gibbs. were Jailed at
Everett A passenger on the train says
their method while going through the
coaches consisted more OF a begging
character than holdup.
No one was injured seriously. al
though continual fire Of revolvers
was kept up.
Stories differ as to the number OF
robbers engaged In the job There
We're at least three There may have
been four OF even more
The express messenger says he does
not know how much was obtained by
the holdup. The local safe was not
