W. G. Pollock, a New York diamond im- porter, was shot, clubbed almost into bed of §15,000 worth of ro sensibility and diamonds on the St. Paul express on the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha railroad, just this side of Califorais Junc tion, last eveniog. I'he robbory was one of the most deiber- ately planned ana successfully executed Jrimes ever committed | he west, and ir noint of nerve and caring is almost without yrecedent in the criminal annals of tho ountry. The whole affair was the work of one silowed his victim for the consummi who had evidentiy £ the time selected bis daring scheme. To carry itinto execu- tion was but work of a moment, and before the bewildered passengers could fair comprehend the enormity of the cri bad oeen perpotrated befora their eyes or lift a floger o aid the victim the daring criminal had leaped from the swiftly moving train and disappeared, with the ehttering motive for the deea safely in his possessi io the that Foltowed Bim from Omaha.

Hardly a minute elapsed before tae sound of four pistol shots in rapid succession was heard atove the roar and rumble of the tram. Tae stranger had suddenly risen in bis se raw rge re volver from his pocket and blazsd away at point blank rasge. It would seem that th robber wished to carry out his purpose without adaing 0 his crimes, if pos- sible, for tha first t s penectrated each of Pollock’s arms above the €;bow The dlamond merchant was taken at a dis- adyantage, but notwithstanding the painfal wounds in his arms grappled ,with bis assail- b > sh ant. Two more shots followed and this time the robber, rendered desperate by bis vie um’s resistance, directed his aim full at Pollock’s hiead. In thest neither builet taking effect. He puiled the trigger again and as the wenpon refused to snswer ho seized it by the barrel and rained blow after blow upon the skuil of bis almost unconscious victim, “Don Your Mo e heshot wild, 1 Poilock told him to take his woncy and spare bus life. “D--n your money, ‘give me the diamo; He tore Pollock’s coat and vest coen and 100k tho pocketbook contaiving the jewels from the inside pocket of, his vest.
