No Htops were ncheduled between De-

Khnrtly after 11 o'olock. At Maple
Park, 50 miles from Chicago, It was
discovered that tower "W" at Elburne
was either out of order or was not giv
ing the right signal. Dan White cloned
the throttle quickly and brought the
train to a standstill.
The truln was midway between El
burne and Maple Park. White had
hardly brought his engine to standstill
when two masked men Jumped onto the
Ftep and pointed gtins at him and the
fireman.
"Throw up your hands," they shout-
did so. The two

robbers detached the engine from the
rest of the, txaln and White was told to
pull out. The robbers ordered him to
take his engine two miles up the trark.
Then he attempted to make a fight and
recapture his engine. He strudRled
manfully, but finally one of the robbers
shot at him but failed to hit him.
In the meantime four other men bad
attacked the conduotor and brakeman.
Numerous shots were fired to Intimi
date them. The oonduotor was unable
to make any resistance, as he was told
he would be killed.
One of the brakemsn managed to es
cape In the darkness and raced to El
btirne, where he managed to send the
alarm to the train despatcher In Chi
cago.
The robbers, after overpowering the
conductor, ordered the express messen
ger, Frank Hobswi, to admit ihtm to
the car.
"You open that car," one of the rob
bers shouted, 'o'r we'll blow It up."
Back from the car came a shout:
You try to force It open and I'll shoot
the first man who shows his head."
A volley of shots was the reply, and
sfter sevenvl bullets had whistled past
his head, the express messenger opened
th car. They put revolvers to his head
and compelled him to give up the keys
to the local safe. They then blew open
