HOLDUP On The
GREAT NORTHERN

Seattle, Wash. Oct. 3.-The Great
Northern overland train, leaving Seat
tie at $3.50 Monday night. was held up
and the baggage and epxress car dyna-
mited five miles from Ballard ut 8:45.
1t was ii 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 asEthe 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 l. Wa1ing 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
,revolLers to hi- hefS.
. Then tho engineer bnd 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 a 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 Nor thern officials had lost the
train and knew nothing of it's 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 the scene.

TRAINS in COLLISION
CARS HURLED DOWN EMBANK.
MEkT AT ST. PAUL, MINI.
500 Line Passenger Train collides
With Great Western Steck Train
One Passenger Killed and Five Seri-
ously lnjured-Defect in Air Brakes
the Cause-Wreck Caught Fire.

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. "A 500 line
passenger train from the east, leaving
the Union passenger station, collided
with a Chicago, Great Western fast
stock train at the North street viaduct.
The force of the collision sent five of
the passenger cars down % foot en-
bankment. One passenger is dead and
five were seriously injured, while a
score of more were slightly bruised.
That no more were killed or injured is
due to the fact that the train was
nearly empty, having discharged the
greater number of its passengers at
the Union station here.
Dead and Injured.
The dead:
Mrs. Clara M. Croft, Minneapolis.
The seriously injured:
Mrs. Dutch, Minneapolis.
Mrs. Thompson.
II. S. Moore, Montreal, Canada.
Mrs. Wilkinson, Minneapolis.
Mr.. Martin, Minneapolis.
The slightly injured:
Hall Wilkinson, Minneapolis; Mr..
Wilkinson, Minneapolis, father of Hall

N. Y; Cyrus Berglund, New York city; ;
c. j. Keenan,, New York city; Miss
Grughlin, New York; w. E. Haskell
and wife, Boston, William M. Hall,
Minneapolis.
1t is feared that two or three of the
seriously injured may die Mr.. Mar
tin, who has fractured skull, Is in a
critical condition.
Twenty were treated at the Union
depot by surgeons, and nearly all of
them were able to go home or continue
their journey to Minneapolis.
w. E. Haskell, who is among those
slightly injured, formerly owned the
Minneapolis Times, but is now con-
nected with a Boston newspaper.
Air Brakes Fail to Work.
The direct cause of the accident was
the failure of the air brakes on the
stock train to work. The 500 line pas
senger train had just left the depot
for Minneapolis and was crossing the
Chicago-Great Western tracks, about
four blocks east of the station. The
track at this point runs along a high
embankment. The fast Great Western
stock train, coming along at a pretty
good speed, struck the passenger
train in the middle. The Pullman
coaches were hurled over The embank-
mentl landing upside down in a
wrecked heap, 25 feet below. The
wreckage caught fire, but it was ex-
tinguished promptly. A squad of police
and all the hospital ambulances, along
with a large corps of surgeons, were
on the spot in a short time and the in
jured were quickly taken from the
wreck to this city.

PRESIDENTIAL BOOM FOR GOV.
JOHNSON.

In an interview with represent.
ative of the Chicago Record-Herald
Thos. W. Lawson, of Boston, says
in regard to his recent lecture tour
in Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and
Minnesota:
1T is impossible for me in any
limited space to give my impression
of my journey, but I want to make
one point: am convinced there is
but one man in the west that l
bumped elbows with whose selection
to fill the great Roosevelt's shoes
would be anything other than sac
rilege.
II found in the west one OF the
sturdlest Americans have ever run
across-an able, honest, fearless cit
izen of the republic, personality
to whom the great body Of Ameri-
Gun citizens would warm and quick
ly make hero of--Governor JOhn-
son of Minnesota.
1T just did my heart good to
shake hands with him and to stand
off and analyze him. and I do not
hesitate second in saying that,
barring accidents, if the Democratic
party nominate him three years
from now, and the American people
get a peek at him, nothing will stop
him from landing in the White
House with majority we'll up with
Roosevelt's. I am no politician,
and, as the American people KNOW
I am not hired out to boom any
man for anything, but simply can
not hold back this expression"
