HOLDUP On The
GREAT NORTHERN

Seattle, Wash, Oct. 3.-The Great
Northern overland train, leaving Seat
tie at $50 Monday night, was held up
and the baggage and epxress car dyna-
mited five miles from Ballard at 8:45.
1t was l. o'clock before the train
pulled into Edmonds, and only the
most meager report was sent to the
Seattle Office.
Three men are known to have done
the work, Two boys, who got on the
blind baggage here, as soon assthe hold
up began. entered the passenger coaches
and began holding up the passengers.
They were captured. They say two
of the men were on the blind baggage
when they got on and the third got on
ia Ballard.
All were dressed in rain coats and
SLOUGH hats.
So far as reported no one has been
killed, but it is reported Charles An
derson, express messenger, is. injured.
Manager 1. Warning of the Great
Northern Express company says he
does not know how much money the
messenger carried, but believes the
amount was small.
After securing the contents of the
safe the three men started off in an
easterly direction. 1t is believed other
members of the gang are ahead of the
scene of the holdup and the robbers
joined them.
The train was tagged near the brick
yard, and as the engineer slowed up
two of the men, wearing raincoats,
climbed over the tender and presented
revolvers to his head.
Then the engineer and fireman were
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 explosion
tore the car almost to pieces. The
safe was then dynamited. The train
was held two and half hours and then
pulled into Edmonds, where a report
was sent before continuing to Everett.
The two boys were taken along.
Conductor Grants report of the hold
up shows that at least seven men were
engaged in the robbery. While the
robbers were engaged on the safe, the
two boys who had been riding on the
blind baggage slipped off and went
through the train, attempting to hold
up the passengers. They had no guns,
but took advantage of the timidity of
the passengers, while the shooting was
going on outside. Conductor Grant
found the boys before they had secured
much money and captured them. One
was recognized as babe" Little, a no.
torious Seattle sneak thief.
Between Ballard and Everett there is
no night office and for nearly three
hours after the rumor of the robbery
Great Northern officials had lost the
train and knew nothing of its where
abouts, or the circumstances of the
robbery.
The boys claim they never met the
holdups until they got on the train and
are In on way connected with their
work. The idea to holdup the passen-
gers occurred OF them after the explos-
ION. A special train, with sheriff's
posse, has started for tha scana

Thief IS CAUGHT
STOLEN SECURITIES FROM NEW
YORK BANK ARE RECOVERED.
Young Man Made a Full Confession
of Having Stolen 100000 in securi-
ties-Have Been Recovered-Was
Arrested While Going to Church.
Thought He Could Not Be Detected.

New York, Oct. Stocked up in
police headquarters, with his full con-
fession in the possession of Captain
John McCauley, is the young man who
by means of forged check recently
obtained from the National City bank,
securities valued at $359,0S0. He was
arrested just as he stepped from his
home and was on his way to church.
-Four hours later he broke down, and
In a flood of tears told the complete
story of his crime.
Captain McCauley of the detective
bureau has in his possession all of
the stolen securities.
In order that the full ends of Justice
may not be defeated and because of
the fact that the father and mother of
the young man have not been inform
ed of his crime or of his arrest, his
name is withheld. He has not been
connected with the National City
bank, which was robbed, nor with
Pearl & Co., the firm of bankers which
had hypothecated with the bank the
securities that were purloined.
He has for several years been the
transfer clerk in one of the best
known brokerage firms in Wall street.
He is "a years of age, and has been
regarded by his employers and by his
friends as a model of propriety and
honesty. His position was one of re-
sponsibility and trust. His engage
ment to young woman, well known
in society in this city, was recently
announced, and he was soon to have
been married.
According to the confession he
signed the crime was all his own from
its inception to it's execution. He had
made arrangements to dispose of the
stocks and bonds which he had stolen,
but at the time of his arrest not one
of them had been hypothecated by
him.
After he had completed and signed
his confession he said that until the
moment of his arrest he could not be-
lieve that he could be detected.
