The raid was planned execution until this morning. When the train left Chicago at 5 o'clock last evening railroad aud express detectives, all walking arsenals, climbed on at every station. J. A. spy for the last two weeks and get- ting the news of their plans, put in an appearance at Galesburg. He brought news that the robbers would be met early in the day and decided to leave their hiding place night and make their third attempt to get rich at the expense of the express company. They expected to make a haul of at least $50,000, the Monday run being always much heavier than any other day of the week. When the train reached Fort Madison, Ia, shortly after mid night, Division Superintendent Stockton of the Wells-Fargo Express company got into the treasure car. He car- ried a sawed off Winchester with a history. It bad belonged to Bill Daltou and it was to be poetic jus tice to turn it loose upon followers in the footsteps of the Kansas des perado Out from between two high ew. bankmente just one mile from Gorin sped the train. Oue minute more and the anxious watchers would know whether they again had their labor in vain. Then came the crack of the looked and longed for signal There was but one.

A grinding of wheels along the rails told the air had been applied, and within twenty seconds from the explosion of the torpedo the train was at a standstill Out from the dense undergrowth north of the track came four forms. The face of each was hidden by a black mask. One, more agile than the rest, rushed to the engine al- most before his companions could reach the express car. He carried a rifle, and when within ten feet of the tender brought it to his shoul- der, pointed it at “Dad” Prescott, the white bearded engineer, and as he shouted, ‘Hold up your hands,” pulled the trigger. His aim was true, and “Dad” fell to the floor of his cab. With one bound Detective Kinney gained the top of the tender and bringing his gun to his shoulder sent a shower of shot almost into the face of the masked individual. How on earth the fellow ever managed to move six inches is a mystery. But he did, and made for the woods. the bandits left their hiding places twenty-one miles away and started for the spot selected for their deed of violence. Each time a copious | fall of rain baffled them.
