senger Tel 's Straight Story, but
Investigation Is Being Held.
COLUMBUS, O.. May 1. The St. Louis
Express on the Pennsylvania Railroad,
which was held up last, night 10 miles
west of Pittsburg:, arrived at the Union
station here . early today, 40 minutes
late. The crew confirmed the story
of the hold-up by two men at Walker's
Mill, and say the bandits escaped with
four sealed bags containing: mall. They
state that a number of express pack
ages and a quantity of gold bullion
were taken, but do not know the value
of the property. The Adams Express
people here refused to make any state
ment. Noah H. Koshon. of Columbus, the
express messenger, states that two men
entered his car east of. Walker's Mill,
and covered him with revolvers. Then
they tied him with ropes and rifled
the csr. As the train approached Wal
ker's Mill, they pulled the signal cord
and stopped the train. They made their
escape when the train slowed up.
The conductor, I L. Lafferty, was
attracted to the express car by the
signal, and found Roshon helpless. He
learned that three bags were rifled by
the men who entered the car. What
they obtained Is only a matter of con
jecture, even to the officials of the ex
press company, at this time. It Is be
lieved, however, that the booty is of
great value.
Roshon, the express messenger, on
arriving Here, the end of his run, was
taken In charge by the local manage
ment of the Adams Express Company,
and was questioned.
There are'some features of his story
with which the officers are not satis
fled, and ihey are trying to get at more
of the details of the robbery.
Conductor Lafferty states that he
knew nothing about the robbery until
he heard the signal to stop, which came
from the express car. He saw no one
leave the train, but hurried to the ex
press car as soon as the slow-down
began.
The contents of the bags were scat
tered about, and he found Roshon lying
on the floor, bound so tightly that he
was entirely helpless. The messenger
was released at once and told the con
ductor the same story he repeated after
his arrival here.
Messenger Roshon has been In the
mploy .of the Adams Express Com
pany as messenger for about nine
years. Previously to that he was a
conductor on the Panhandle road, hav
ing worked himself up from a brake
man. He was 53 years old, and has
worked on the railroad for about 20
years. -Roshon's wife, who has always
been anxious concerning the safety of
her husband on his trips, said that he
carried revolvers, and was prepared for
any emergency. She said. however,
that ha told her over tha taltuhone that
he could do nothing, having been taken
by surprise. She said he had never
feared a hold-up.
Will Not Say How Much. '
PITTSBURG, May i All efforts to as
certain the amount of money stolen have
failed. Neither the railroad nor the ex
press officials are Inclined to enlighten the
public on this point. M. B. Slater, agent
for the Adams Express Company at the
Union Station, said today that the amount
taken is not near $80,000. as reported, or
even half that sum, although he admitted
It was not known here at this time how
much money was taken. -
EXPRESS ROBBERY IX MEXICO
Wells-Fargo Car Entered and $6Sf
t . ' 000 Stolen.
LAREDO, Texas, May 1. Tlfe Wells
Fargo Express Company has reported to
the authorities of Torreon, Mexico, a loss
of $63,000 in Mexican currency, which they
say was taken from a through safe on the
City of Mexico car. The money was con
signed to one of the banks of Chihuahua.
Two arrests have been made in Torreon,
although It is not believed by the officials
here that the men who were arrested in
Torreon have the money.
It appears that one of the agents of the
company boarded the express train at a
station between the City of Mexico and
Torreon, afterward leaving the train. It
Is said that he was the only man in the
car who knew the combination of the
safe. He has not yet bpen arrested.

dence taken by a grand Jury in thfi Wall

"We contend," said Mr. Pierce; "that
Mr, Jerome could have gone before the
grand Jury with the evidence that he had

called Mr. Ryan before the grand Jury
and forever barred the road to prosecu1
tion."
Mr. Jerome agreed to submit the evi
dence privately to the Commissioner, -with
the understanding that Mr. Pierce
shall not be allowed to read It.
Mr. Pierce asked for an adjournment
until Monday, when lie promised to take
up Mr. Jerome's investigation of the
American Ice Company. He said Mr.
Jerome Investigated the company for
talf a day and then turned the investiga
tion against three or four small Indepen

Ice Company wanted to smash, and that
he advised that Indictments be returned
against them.

FLEET WILL STOP FOR TIME
OFF YAQUINA BAY.
Navy Department Consents to Allow
Battleships to Halt in Pas
sage Xdrth.
NEWPORT, Or., May 1. (Special.)
The battleship fleet will come to a stop
off Newport, on the Oregon coast, for
a short time on its way to Puget
Sound, in order to give the people of
this state an opportunity, to see the big
fighting machines of Uncle Sam's Navy.
The fleet will reach a point off Ya
qulna Bay about May 22. Excursions
will be run by the.Harrlman lines to
carry people to Newport, where steam
ers will take excursionists out to sea
to see the battleships at close range.
Requests were made of the Navy
Department to permit the vessels to
stop at Yaqulna Bay on their way
north, and it was learned yesterday
that the response of the Navy Depart
ment was favorable. William Mat
thews, of Newport, who has been active
in the movement to get the fleet to
halt off Yaquina Bay. telegraphed
General Passenger Agent McMurray
of the Hamman lines in the territory
yesterday that the effort has been suc
cessful and Washington officials have
agreed to arrange the cruise of the
fleet north from San Francisco so that
the warships will stop for some tims
off Yaqulna.
Newport people expect the fleet of
fighting ships on May 22 and the Com
mercial Club will make arrangements
to give the officers and crews a royal
welcome. It has been suggested that
the people gather large numbers of
rhododendrons, which cover the hills
near town at this season, and take the
flowers out to the ships.
The Southern Pacific will make spe
cial rates for the event from all parts
of the etate. It Is expected that travel
to the Yaqulna Bay resort will be
heavy. Arrangements are now being
made to run special trains over the
Southern Pacific valley lines and the
Corvallls & Eastern, the connecting
Harriman line.
