El Paso, Aug. 3.*~The Rock Island passenger train, which left El Paso Saturday morning, noith-bound, was held up Saturday night at 11 o clock at Logan, N. M., a station 30 miles north ol Tucumcari and 99 miles north of Santa Rosa, the division point. Seven masked robbers boalded the train just as it was leaving Lognn, uncoupled the baggage and express cars and went on with the engine. Conductor John York lesisted and was shot in the leg. The engine was run ahead a short distance, when it was stopped and dynamite applied. The small safe was placed on top of the large one and then the charge was fired, but the only effect was to blow the small safe throng]' the roof of the car, the larger one not being injured. lhe smallei safe was replaced and the second chaige of dynamite put be tween the two safes with the same re sult, except that the small safe this time was blown through the side of the car. The robbers then mounted their horses and rode away in the darkness. Officers were advised this morninc of the hold-up and are on the trail of the men who are lielieved to be the "Evans gang.” The passengers were not molested by the robbers, and many did not know the robbery was in progress, as most of them were asleep. Owing to the re moteness of Logan, the details of the hold-up were not obtained until to night, when a south-bound Rock Island passenger train arrived here. The Wells Fargo officials say there was only $7 in the safe when it left here. ____________ ._____ ASSAULT IS ON wATCRS OF THE ANA. Be Used for Irrigation Southern Oregon.

ARE GIVEN AN ULTIMATUM Packers Tell Board of Arbitration That Strikers Tailed to Live Up to Signed Agreement. Chicago, July 29.—“We had an agreement with Mr. Donnelly’s organi zation and the allied tiadea which they failed to live up to, and under the cir cumstances we do not care to make any further agreements with them.” This ie the statement which was ¿gned by the leprseentativea of tbs packers and handed to the members of I he state board of arbitration tonight at the end of a conference between ths two bodies, held at the i equest nt the state board in an endeavor to bring about another meeting for the settle ment of the butchers’ strike between the packers and the strikers. The pat kers received the state board courte ously an<l listened to their arguments for a peaceable adjustment of the diffi culty. The announcement that the packere were opposed to any fuither peace ne gotiations with the strikers was handed to the board by Arthur Meeker and Thomas Connor, both of Armour A Co., who represented the packers. Whils from theii statement it would appear that the packers are opposed to meet ing the strikers again on any terms, such is not the case.
