As the train pulled out of the little town of Lozier thre2 men jumped oa the platform and pointiag pistol at the engioeer and fireman, compelled the former to stop the train about one aod half miles west of the town. After forcing the doors of the ex- prees car iv, ove of the rcbbers en- tered the car and dynam ted the two safes of the Wels Fargo Express company Both the through and the local safes were opened and the con tents were secured. The local safe contained about $2,000 or $3,000 The amount secured from the through safe is unkown, but it is be- lieved it will vot fell below $7,000 or $8,000. The expres3 cir was badly wrecked by the ferce of the explo sion of the dynamite. The top was blown off and the sides ard floor were badly shattered. The mail was greatly damag ed by force of the ex- plosion of the dynamite. Officers are in pursuit of the robbers, who went noith. It is claimed they are part ofa gang that came into this section recently from New Mexico. How to Find Out.
