" There are many rumors float , but none of them are worth opcating , as they can't bo traced. TJio train was the thrnyh ; Chicago xpross leaving Kansas City in the veiling. It was a light train , accord- ig to the ollicials at the ( Jninn do- ot. ot.A A reporter boarded her at Harlem ; ; Uion and learned full particulars of le horrible robbery and murder from Ir. George Tindall , ox-mayor of 'renton , andGoorgo . Temple , also f Trenton , who were passengers on " 10 incoming train. The robbers six in number , boarded 10 train quietly at Cameron , twenty liles this side of Winston. At Win- .011 the train was stopped and just at nit time a mil black-whiskered man uddonly arose in his scat in the ccond car from the express car , and eavoiug two revolvers at Conductor Vcstfall , who was just entering the oor of the coach , cried "hold up our hands ! " The conductor seemed o have turned at that instant , for no of the revolvers was discharged , ml the kill entered his back , tiono- rating his body , mssing through the teart and killing him instantly , At the same moment another of the obbors fired , and the bullet ponotrat- d the forehead of a stone cutter from Wilton Junction , la. , who was a pas- cnger , on his way homo. Both the I conductor and the passenger fell dead BQ nstantly. The conductor staggered hrough the open door and fell elF the ilatform near the track. A brakeman of vho saw the conductor fall , hastened o pick him up , but ho was dead. ot The robbers scattered through the rain ; and began firing promiscuously hrougli windows , through the roof of .ho coaches , and into the lh > or , to in- imidato the passongora , but fortu- lately no one else was killed or wounded et' ' , There were comparatively few at mssongors aboard. Meanwhile two of tho-boldplimdor- rs and murderers had gptio into the xpress car. The intciULon was to rob. he United States exncesB safe , as it vas evidently known by the robbora hat the express matter brought down > y the Atchison brancli was transfer red to the train they were on at Cauir oron.

Murray , aiul tlio baggag iiuin , Lrank Stamper. Mr. Stamper es- : aped from the cur , but the inoflsengor remained to attuuipt to parley with the rullians. He told them that all there was in the afo was u little bulluvn , and that tlwy would never got that. Cno ) of the dcsiMiradoes hurled him down , and kneeling over him with a revolver pressed against Jus temple , compello 1 him to unlock the safe. It was impossible to ascertain the exact amount in the safe , but it was nt least $5,000 , and some of the train men averred that the sum must huvo boon fully J1B ? , 00. The two men ou the express car then ordered Kd. Walcutt , the engi neer , to "pull out. " Dut xs the auto matic brakes were on ho could not do this , and at this thev began firing at him and the firouian , Tom Sugga. The frightened engincerand fireman quick ly put out tlm lights in the cab , and , crawling out on the pilot , put out the headlight , and then ensconced them f selves , in uwo and terror , on the pilot , powerlesa to defend themselves or the train , Ixilng unarmed. Tin ! robbers loft the train ossudden- ly aa they hiul made their appearance , and , as the train moved out , began firing at the cars and through the windows dews ono of the boldest and most devilish proceedings over committed by robbers of that class. No. ! J reached the station at about 11 o'clock and picked up the murdered conductor and took him to Cameron , where an inquest will bo hold. An- soon an the inhabitants ot the vicinity heard of the dreadful outrage , many of them turned out armed with shot guns and rifles to hunt down the mis creants , The police in this city were ordered to keep a sharp look-out for thoui , but tlio only tnah whoso descrip tion they have , and in fact the only ono of the band whom any ono could furnish n description of , was the mys terious black bearded man , the leader of the gang. George Tindall , another passenger on No. ! 1 , pave the following grapnic account , dill'ering slightly from some of the others : I heard the shooting and saw the headlight of the engine go out. The robbers got on the train at Cameron , and aat quietly until it passed through Winston. Just beyond that place is a troatlo work , and hero the train slowed up. Then a largo man , , with a full black board of about two weeks' growth , rose out of his scat and1 cum * jnenced a promiscuous firing. Hi ) wn.'t in tlio smoking car , in the front end. The conductor was passing out of the rear door when ono shot struck him in the back. Ho siaggorert out on the plat form , and fell oil'tho car. Abtho name time firing was going on in the ladies' car , and it was hero the stone cutter , John McCullough , was killed. I think tlio shooting was tlono to in- tinndato the passengers and not with the intention of killing anyone. The robbers ordered u brakeman , Harry Thomas , to pull the rope and start the train , but the engineer , Ed. Wal- outt , refused to obey and put'on the air brakes. Tl o robbers proceeded to > the baggage car , or part of them did , , and ordering the baggage man out , clubbed thu expressman , Chas. Mur ray , knocking him down twice. Ho did not know whether they hit him with their pistols or not. Any way , ho had a bad gash across his foro. head. The robbers , securing their booty , $5000 that is positively known of , quietly left the train. The passon- sonuors Were the worst scared lot of follows I over saw. Wo brought the body of the dead conductor back to > Camdcn with us. Ho was an excel lent man. T have known him person ally for many years. Altogether the robbery was ono oC the most daring over perpetrated , and at the same time human life was most recklessly disregarded. No Trace of the RoliUorii National AasoclatuI 1'rcs.i.
