GRAND FORKS. N. D.. July co.
Train No. 2, the e%ast-bound North
Coast Limited, on the Northern Pacific
railroad, was held up by three masked
robbers near Buffalo, n. D., about IL
o'clock last night. The robbers Sc
cured about $50 in cash by going
through the passengers; shot Engineer
s. p. Olsen. of Fargo, twice in order
to make him stop the train, and then
made a successful escape in an auto
mobile, which they had awaiting them
near the scene of the robbery.
When the train stopped at the high
bridge at Valley City the three men
boarded 1t and went into the day
coach and ~sleepers.
After searching the occupants of the
berths they climbed out the diner,
over the baggage and the express car
to the engine. reaching that part of the
train when near Buffalo. They ordered
engineer Olsen to stop the train so they
could get off and when he refused to
comply with their wishes two shots
were fired directly at him, n glanc-
ing off his watch M the other strik-
ing him on a rib, injuring him slightly.
He then stopped the train.
While the robbers were at work in
the second sleeper, Conductor Belgard
fired from the first sleeper at one of
the desperadoes. who was standing
guard at the door, and 1t is believed
hit him in the shoulder, as he was seen
to vince and the bullet hole showed in
the glass door about shoulder high.
