MAIL CAR ROBBED
Two Clerks Are Bound and
Handcuffed Together.
Bandits Take Everything OF
Value They Can Find.

Birmingham, Ala, Aug. 6.-The mail
car on the Louisville & Nashville pas
senger train No. 4, northbound from
early last night by two unknown white
men, who held up the mail clerks All
the registered mail was taken, but no
estimate could be made of the amount
aboard.
The train reached Birmingham on
time at S:37 o'clock, and two of the
mail clerks, George Hoover and z. G.
York were found handcuffed together
in such way that the irons had to
be filed from their wrists. The thumbs
of Chief Clerk Harry Everett were Sc
curely bound together with heavy
Irvine.
The robbers boarded the mail car at
Calera on the side opposite the sta
ton as the train began to move. The
clerks say they were covered with re-
volvers and ordered to turn their faces
to the wall. Everett looked around
once and was fired upon, the bullet just
missing his head.
Chief Clerk Everett said he had no
idea of the value of the registered mail
but declared that the robbers took it
all. Both were short, slender men, he
said, but he did not get a good look at
their faces. No one besides the mail
clerks on the train, apparently knew
the robbers were aboard.
When the engineer stopped for the
Southern crossing at Fourteenth street
Birmingham, he CHANGED to look back
and saw the two men jump from the
mail car door. This aroused his sus-
picions and an investigation revealed
the handcuffed clerks.

The railway mail service has shown
great improvement in the past five OF
six years, greater to the eye of mail
clerk who has been in the service Ior
fifteen or >nty years than to the
citizen whose Only connection with the
service is the mailing and receiving of
letters. Speaking of these improve
ments one of the clerks who has seen
a number of years in the service re
marked on the so-called privileges
which have been taken away from the
clerks.
They were never privileges he said,
but were simply little emoluments OF
office, so to speak. to which we had no
right 1t improved the service when
they. We're taken away.
THE free pass for the mail clerk and
his family is a thing of the past, ne
continued To-day a mail clerk is not
even allowed. to ride anywhere on his
card unless it is on official business.
IT took a trip short time ago Part
of the trip was on business and L used

was to visit relatives and to fish. L

the check would have come into the

Then another order was issued, cutting
out the half fare and mail clerks were

to growl about their privileges being

stuck. Another order issued about two
years ago cut the transportation for
clerks and employees of all kinds in the
service down to official business. The
cards now contain a statement of the

county is to have good roads, the citi-

county commissioners to make a levy
and designate county thoroughfares.
The commissioners had refused to
make a levy for the improvement and
the vote of the taxpayers was decided

showed there is a large majority in
favor of the roads.
There is a fund of $500 for roads
in the county treasury received from
the state motor car tax and the COM
missioners made a levy Monday which
will put $4,000 more annually for
good roads at the service of the com
missioners. Kingman is surrounded
by counties which are favorable for
good roads.
