The engine and cars that the rob-
bers took are running wild.
The description of three of the
robbers: One, heavy set, smooth
shayen, about five feet, eight inches,
hand on dark trousers and brown
coat; other two about six feet, slim,
dark clothing, had electric torches.
The losses of mail matter are be-
lieved to be small. Clerk Poole hid
one important pouch.
Only meagre details of the holdup
had been received at the Birmingham
headquarters of the Queen and Cres-
cent. The first intimation of the
holdup came in a message from the
operator at Woodstock, who said that
the engine and two cars had passed
his station. Two masked men were
aboard.
At 80 o'clock the engine and two
cars passed through Tuscaloosa ap-
parently running wild. Sheriff

The inventor asked to whom he shoule
go if he wished to make an appointment
with Mr. Edison. The new boy summoned
w. r. Meadowcraft. the secretary of MIR
Edison. He was astonished when he saw
the so-called stranger.
I've come up to take Mr.. Edison $
place; will you employ a man who is
willing to work now and them said the
inventor as he shook hands.
He said, ''Meadowcraft, that boy is all

FELKER'S ADVISERS ARE
DIVIDED in OPINIONS ON
THAW WEXTRADITIO CASE

Concord, N. H., September 25.-A di-
vision of opinion is said to exist among
Governor Felker's advisers as to wheth- 4
er he should honor the request of the
state of New York for the extradition
of Harry X. Thaw. Some of them take
the attitude that New York papers are
in proper legal form and that it Is
unnecessary for the governor 20 go be-
low their surface in an inquiry into the
facts of the case upon which they are
based. Others at the statehouse take an
opposite view.
But Governor FelKer, who 10 himself a
lawyer, is understood to attach import
ance to securing further information on
the subject of the reported indictment of
Thaw by the Duchess county (New York;
grand jury for conspiracy In connection
with his escape from the Matteawan In
