ROBBED
Two Masked Men Halt a Great Northern Train in Montana
 and Loot the Mail.
GOT ONLY REGISTERED MAIL
Blew Open the Safe in the Express Car But Found It Empty Engineer Covered and Shots Fired to Keep
 Passengers Away.

St. Paul, Minn., Sept. 12.- General Manager Elliott of the Great Northern Express Com pany announced to the Associat- ed Press today that the Great Oriental Limited train No. 1, | which left St. Paul Tuesday morning, was held up by two masked men six miles west of Bedford, Mont, early today.
 The robbers crawled over the tender at that place and at the point of their guns commanded the engineer to stop the train. Then they ordered him to go back with them to the express car and instructed him to tell the express messenger, mail clerk and baggagemaster to go back to the coaches. While this was be- ing done, the robbers kept up continual fusilade of their guns to terrify the passengers and keep them within the coaches.
 After the messenger, baggage man and mail clerk had left their cars, the robbers went through the mail cars and, robbed the sacks of alarge quantity of regis tered mail. Then they went into an express car which carried an overflow of mail, baggage and ex- press, and which contained a regular through safe. After ex- ploding three charges, the safe was opened and found to be emp ty.
 The robbers did not enter the regular express car in which the messenger had been riding. Find ing the safe empty, the highway men helped themselves to the registered matter, after firing parting volley and departed.
 In view of the fact that the Great Northern Express Com pany did not suffer any loss, the Great Northern Railway Com pany has telegraphed the follow ing offer of a reward to all points in the west along it's lines.
 The Great Northern Railway Company will pay 5000 for the arrest and conviction of each of the persons engaged in the hold up of it's train near Bedford, Mont, on the morning of Sep tember F, 1907. (Signed) F. E. Ward, General Manager.

Alterations and Improvements Now
 Being Made.

AlLerallOHS ana improvements NOW
 Being Made.
 Hundreds of workmen are rushing with all speed the construction of many buildings being erected at Savin Rock, most of which are expected to be com pleted before the formal opening of the season at this resort. One of the lar gest jobs on the shore front is that transforming the theater building into a restaurant. This was to be complet- ed a few days ago, but is not wone as yet, though few more days and the painters, who are putting the finishing touches on the building, will have end ed their part of the contract.
 On Grove street and other places throughout tle amusement section there is great activity in the building line and the changes during the past two months have been so numerous that Savin Rock will undoubtedly be bigger and buster than ever before.
 The White City is receiving thorough overhauling. Some of the at fractions exhibited there last season have been displaced and new ones have taken their place. Before the city is opened to the public it is expected that all the buildings will receive a new coat of paint, and that will probably be spiek and span when the season opens. Ground will shortly be broken, it is said, for the new roller coaster to be located on Beach street, not far from the park.

EXPRESS ROBBERY ARREST
ST, PAUL POLICE SAY THEY HAVE
 THE CULPRIT.

Influence of Liquor, and Claims He
 Knows Nothing of What Happened
 the Night Before.
 St, Paul, Minn., April 1.-The police to-day arrested John Gunderson on the charge of having held up Frederick Zimmerman, the clerk in the Northern Express companys office last night, and robbed the office safe of 2 package containing $25,OOO. The police would not say whether the money had been found or not, but they said that they had the right man.
 When Gunderson was taken to the police station, he appeared to be under the influence of liquor and said he knew nothing about the robbery. Upon the police suggesting mat they would let him go without prosecution if he would tell where he had hidden the money, Gunderson said he could not re- member what he had done with it. Gunderson claimed that he had been drinking and did not remember what had happened during the night.
 Gunderson had been employed by the Northern Express company, and was recently discharged. He is said to have been familiar with the details of the office, and knew that a package con- taining $25OOO was going to Duluth on the night train.
 Zimmerman, the clerk in charge of the office, says Gunderson came to the Ioffice about 9 o'clock, and, as he had been employed there, he thought noth- ling of his hanging around. Gunderson appeared to have been drinking, and was in a jovial mood. He remained un- Itil every one but Zimmerman and a porter had left and then Gunderson gave the porter some money and told him to get bottle of whiskey As soon as the porter had disappeared, Gunder- son covered Zimmerman with a revolv- CT and commanded him to open the safe and hand out the package. Zimmer- man said that he saw that Gunderson request Gunderson then backed out of the office. Zimmerman said that he mo- titled the police as soon as he was sure Gunderson had departed.
 It developed this afternoon that thi money stolen last night from the union depot office of the Northern Pacific Ex- press company was a package of $25,00O that the Merchants National bank of thls city had consigned to Duluth. This afternoon the express company turned over a check for the full amount to the bank.

COwan of Texas to See Roosevelt
 Favors Radical Legislation.
 Washington, April 17.-President Roosevelt does not think the stock of any railroad company good invest ment for the trust funds of an estate. This was the statement he made to- day at the White House in the course of an interview with former Governor Larrabee, of Iowa.
 Governor Larrabee, who is in favor of far-reaching amendments to the in- terstate commerce law, urged on the president the need of legislation to pre- vent over capitalization, the necessity of valuation of the roads and the danger of allowing railroads to make traffic agreement. On valuation he was insistent.
 Would you in the present state of things, if trustee of an estate buy rail- road stocks for investment?' ne asked The president said he would not.
 Would you buy the stock of na- tional bank?" was another of his ques tons. MT. Roosevelt replied that he would.
 That said MT. Larrabee, answers the whole question as to whether the railroads should be subjected to rigid government control"
 He admonished tle president not to be alarmed by the forebodings of panic if railroad regulation was persisted in Or leaving the White House he said he was fully satisfied with the attitude of the president and was confident the chief executive would go ahead to the conclusion of railroad regulation. He denied this was radical.
 '.We are the true conservatives, the real friends of the railroads" he de- cared.
 MT Roosevelt who is giving much time to the railroad question, with ref erence to the recommendations in his next annual message and to the utter ances he will make in his forthcoming Indianapolis speech, will confer to- morrow with Judge s. H. Cowan, of Texas, attorney for the Southwestern Cattle Growers association.
 Judge Cowan is one of the leading interstate commerce lawyers in the country, ad, like Mir. Larrabee, is in favor of radical railroad legislation, It is understood he will insist strongly to the president on the need of checking over-capitalization on valuation and on legislation to prevent car shortage,
 The interstate commerce commission will not apply to the circuit court for the southern district of New York for an order to compel Hartman to testi- fy on certain points connected with the Union Pacific management for sev- eral weeks. It is expected the contest will go to the supreme court That body cannot decide the matter before fall at the earliest.
