Probably $20,000. Entire Gang Then Take to Automo- | biles and Make Their Escape. Coffeyville, Kan., March 25—For two hours six maskéd men held St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern passenger train No. 104 at a standstill ©n the prairie about six miles south of this city while they blew open a safe | cerin, automobiles, carrying with them mon- | ey and valuables which it is believed will amount to $20,000. | Just after the train left Lenapah | Engineer Lynch heard a sharp. cry; “Hands up!” Turning he saw a masked man sit- | tng on the tender, pointing a revolver ! at him. | “I'm going to ride a little ways with | you,” said the man. “Drive on.” About four miles out.of Lenapah the man forced the engineer to stop the train at a place where the tracks cross a small culvert near a clump of trees. Five masked men came out of the clump and taking positions on either side of the train began shooting in the air along the side of the train. Trainmen Locked in Coach. Then while two of the men stood guard to prevent any passengers from leaving, the other four marched the en- gineer and firemen to.the day coach and locked them in there. One man then took a position tc guard the rear of the train and three went into the express car, forced the Lwo express men to jump out and stand where one guard could keep them covered with a revolver. After nearly an hour's work the men had succeeded in inserting a charge of nitroglycerin into the “through” | safe in the express car. They blew the safe -to pieces and scattered its con- tents over the floor. Finally two automobiles came from the direction of the Oklahoma line into which the robbers leaped and rode away. The passengers were not mo- lested. When the train reached this city the sheriff was notified and with two ward in pursuit of the six bandits. Officials of the express company say the booty of the robbers consisted of a few" “sealed packages,” the value of which was small.
