however, the man hunters could do
practically nothing until daylight,
thus affordliig the outlaws a start of
nt least six Iiouib. This, period of
time Is a great deal, especially In
such a place as the Cow Creek can-
yon. Tho robbery occurred between
8 and 10 o'clock, and the news
reached this city a half hour after-
wurds from Conductor W. II. John-
ston, of Roseburg, who was in charge
of the train. Reports appearing In
'he Portland Oregonlan arriving here
this morning that the safe of the
mail enr was Diown wtin aynamue
are erroneous. No explosive of any
kind figured In the robbery.
Sheriff Qulne's absence from the
posse Is explained by his presence In

ahaata Limited bandits are still bo-
Heved to be In hiding. Qulne Is
thoroughly familiar with the Cow

I.Ike HIiiihIu Limited Job.
In the niaiu, the robbery of the
California Express was like that of
the Shasta Limited, and In the minds
of railroad men and the authorities
the same men are guilty of both
Crimea. Last nights robbery was n
' most daring piece of work. Involving

.and the Intimidation of tho entire
train crew. Altogether it was oue

follow who wore the musk, stood

' THE, LEADER
Formerly Roseburg lleiiuty I'uilom.
The mall clerks think there were at
least three, but .McCulloch Is positive
there were only two. From the
many different stories of the rob
bery It has been Impossible to ac
count for more than two men, and
tho descriptions sent out today by
loscph Rellly, tho Southern Pacific
detective, refer to Just that number.
Relllly accompanied the bloodhounds
to West Fork from Salem and Is now
working with thn posse. The de
scription of the bandits furnished
by him to the local authorities fol
lows: What the Men Look Like.
The one unmasked About 2ti
years of age: about 5 feet 7 or 8
Inches tall; thin, weighing not morn
than 140 pounds; dark or gray eyes:
no mustache, oue week's growth of
black beard; dark complexion; face
rather long and sunburned; black
hair: mild voice: wore a dark eont
buttoned across the throat, and a
black cap; had two small pistols,
one nn niiloinutic; called his partner
"Joe."
The one masked About 30 years
of nge; same height as partner;
weighs about lt5 pounds; woe
slouch hat, dark suit of clothes, tnn
shoes and seemed to have on a sweat
er or a buckskin vest under hie co.it.
Passengers Hide Valuables.
Upon being ordered back to tho
passenger coaches. Conductor John
ston notified the passengers of what
was transpiring. Kxcltement nnd
fear reigned In anticipation of a visit
from tho bandits nnd evoryono be
gan hiding money and Jewelry. One
of tho passengers was Rev. C. A.
Rexroad, of Milton, Or., former pas
tor of the Southern Methodist Church
In Roseburg, who was enroute on his
return homo from a trip to Sun Fran
cisco. He described a number of
very funny incidents In the cars.
One woman, he said, removed her
false hair from her head and wrapped
It around her money.
Five men, securing weapons, went
ahead to look for the bandits and
micceeded 111 "holding up W. Hughes,
the head briikeninn, who was return
ing in Hie' coaches. He ndvlsed them
to go hack and they did so. From a
liiinur who hoarded the train at
VBt Fork Knglneer Schmidt Becured
a revolver nnd started on n hunt al
so. He saw four men coming 'to
ward him in the darkness and rather
than risk a battle against such odds
with one revolver he hid on the bank
hesldu Hie track. As the men passed
him he was unable to see whether
they carried anything or not.
The passenger coaches which had
been detached wero reconpled with
Hie front end of tile train at Cow
Creek, to which pluco they were
shoved by the second section. The
trains wero delayed about two lionis"
and n half by the robbery.
Ilooty Relieved Small.
It will be several weeks before
tho exact amount of booty secured
by the robbers will be known. This
will he gruduully ascertained by the
postal authorities as complaints are
received from the persons to whom
the registered pneknges wore ad
drcBsed. The action of the bandits
In attempting to gulp admission to
the expt'CHS cur Is taken us good ovl
dence, however, that the robbers did
not secure very much for their
night's work. The southbound over-
jlutid of lust night curried In the ex
press cur close to iiiiii.uuo In Alask
an gold which hud been consigned
from Seattle to the mint at Sun
Francisco.
Hud Hie bandits gained access lo
the exprpss car bloodshed would hav
undoubtedly ensued. Iloth Reynolds
and David, It Ih reported, were ready
with gmiB to resist in case Hie cur
door should give way.
A padlock ban been put on the
gate at tho Odd Kid lows cemetery.
Ouo key will be found at 11. V.
