THE ROBBERS.

Ogden, Utah, Jan. 3.-Southern Pa

westbound, was held up by two mask
ed bandits early this morning at
Reese, nine miles west of Ogden.
one negro porter was shot and in
stantly killed, and another porter NOR
tally wounded. passenger was
slightly wounded. One hundred pas
sengers on the train were relieved of
their valuahles.
The robbers did not attempt to en-
ter the express car, but devoted their
entire attention to the Pullmans where
they made a rich haul among the CAL
ifornia bound passengers, holding the
train for more than an hour. The
train then proceeded westward. No
passengers escaped the robbers, and
the trainmen also lost their money and
jewelry.
Two masked men stopped the train
at little watering station, by throw
ing a red light on the signal stand
toward the approaching locomotive, as
it came to a standstill the bandits
covered the engineer and fireman with
their revolvers and held them until
the delay. He, too, was placed under

NJ CONVILLE IS
SHORT $1,000.
He HAD USED COUNTY FUNDS
BECAUSE OF ILLNESS IN HIS
FAMILY AND FOR PURPOSE OF
GIVING CHILDREN A COLLEGE
EDUCATION.

n. A. McConville. retiring county
treasurer, is short $500.
The admission by Mr.. McConviIis
this morning OF the shortage, came as
distinct surprise, as he was re-
garded as a most exemplary official in
every respect.
SO skilfully did the treasurer con-
ceal his work that 1t escaped the at
tention of the examiners and Mr.. Nc
couvilles deputy.
He was better able to do this from
the fact that prior TO his election he
had served four years as deputy and
was particularly familiar with the
urer four years ago.
The shortage commenced early In
his first term and the amount grad
ually increased until the grand total
reached $500. Il is not thought the
amount win be larger than the sum
admitted by the treasurer
Mr.. McConville is q man OF model
habits. In addition to the fact that
he is q strong worker for religious
movements and a church member, he
neither drinks, smokes, CANDLES nor
speculates.
The money involved in the shortage
was used because of illness in his
family and for the purpose Of paying
the expenses OF his children while
they were securing college educations.
Mr.. McConville thought all the time
he would be able to catch up with
the shortage and replace the fund be-
fore the expiration Of his term OF of
fee.
The establishment over the admis-
sion Of the shortage is mixed with re.
gret that the official should have per-
mitted himself to take money belong
ing to the taxpayers.
The treasurer Is under heavy bond.
and the county will lose nothing as
result Of his shortage.

GREEK LABORER
FOUND MURDERED
VILLAGE IN EXCITEMENT OVER
MYSTERIOUS AND BRUTAL
DEED.

Hopkins, Mimi, Jan. S.-Andri Pavl
a laborer in the Hopkins Sewer Pipe
Plant Co., was found dead, victim
of murder, early today in his cot
tage in Hopkins, just week after he
had told his friends that he feared
someone would kill him.
Extreme cruelty had been used by
the murderer, for Pavl had been liter
ally beaten to death. Robbery is sup
posed by the Hopkins village police to
have been the motive. The mans bank
book lay on the floor as though dis
carded by the assailant just before his
flight Paw was Greek and until
recently many other Greeks had been
employed at the plant. They have all
disappeared and this has tended fur
Their to cloud the mystery.

The extent Of the fatalities and the
