Deputies Rlttc Two in a Seat, Each Officer Facing a Prisoner Due at Leavenworth Tomorrow. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Pec. .31. Fear by United States Marshal Schmidt that an attempt would bo made to blow up tho special train carrying tho thlrty-throo union lead ers convicted of conspiracy unlaw fully to transport dynamite to Fort Leavenworth prison, and tho filing of writs of supersedeas and error In tho United States district court bore today canted a delay In tho depart ure of tho "dynamite special." It was originally intended for the spe cial to more at 10:30 o'clock, but this plan was blocked by the aotlon of the defense attorneys In tiling tho two writs, and it was decided not to start tho train until there a no possibility of legal Interference. ActlOH 1MKIHC1 Whlel Judge Anderson was post 'honing action on tho writs to Thurs day, Marshal Schmidt was at the coiiutr"alt lastrnctdtff flHy deputies regarding their duties. It was said he heard reports that tho progeas of the "dnam!to special" was to be In terfered with. The train started over tho Pennsylvania railroad at isactly 12:30 o'clock, and Is routed, it M believed, via St. Louis. "There Is a possibility, and It is not an improbability, either," Mar shal Schmidt, told his deputies, "that an attempt will bo made to d-namlto this train. Personally, I do not ex pect anything like this to happen, but this trip will bo no picnic. Colls Writs Junk Piles "I must deliver theso men safely at Fort Leavenworth prison, and I Intcud to see that this Is done. Tho first man caught taking n drink on this trip will bo fired nt tho next sta tion." "A pllo of Junk," was the phraso used by Federal District Attorney Miller, referring to tho 100 typewrit ten pages comprising tho two writs filed by defense attorneys. Tho postponement was granted by Judge Anderson at the request ot Mlllor. There was no argument. Specific Instructions that no man would ho permitted to lc.ivo tho train nftor It started wus given by Marshal Schmidt, who also ordered his deputies not to allow tho priso ners out of their sight. Tho deputies rode two In a scat, each officer facing a prisoner. Tho convicted mon bore up well. Tho special train comprised two coaches aud a bagago car. No sleeping accommodations wcro pro vided, as Marshal Schmidt consid ered it necessary for his deputies to remain awake. Tho special la duu at Leavenworth at 3 o'clock tomorrow mornlue.
