' train, drop off in the desert and I never get caught," they said. First, thing any of the old master train' • robbers would have watched for—' a passenger stuck out his foot in' ' the aisle and tripped one of them, [ Trainmen and passengers were' 1 on top of him In an Instant. Tho | other robber turned to see what I caused the noise, and he wasi i grabbed. Ills gun went off and | the bullet killed W. L. Smith of KI Reno, Okla., who was en route I west to see his sick wife. Smith I was a Rock Island railway man ijbut he had a trainman's aversion for robbers on any line, and he I was one of the first men to go after the robber who turned his head. The two bad men bought their .■cowboy regalia at Dening, N. M. They worked tor a carnival there, a few days, then went to El Paso, i There they had boarded the train. I The passengers marked them at I once for tenderfeet. I One of them went to the rear of |

the train and confronted conductor W. M. Hooloway with a gun. The conductor thought he was drunk 'and told him to sit down "and quit [yoqr kidding.” But the man pushed the guu to- ' ward the conductor's stomach and said: "this Is a holdup." "He hacked me into the car and ; kept telling me to raise my hands, ’ but I didn't do It," Holloway said. At the front of the car, the other robber was waving a gun and shouting threats and commands. One of them fired a shot to prove that it was a real hold-up, and to rouse the sleeping passengers so they could get their wallets and watches ready. With their loot tied in a bundle l one of them ordered the brake- : man, Jim Velstr, to signal the en- ' gineer to stop the train. Then I things began to happen. 8. Webb, I 65, El Paso negro, shoved out his foot. The robber tripped and fired. The bullet went through the ' sleeve of Webb's leather jacket i but didn't touch him. Another shot was aimed at Jose A. Rodriguer, 55, El Paso, but the bullet struck Rodrigues' watch and stopped short of his hip. They had the first robber down in the aisle pounding him when the second robber turned his head. K. C. Moon, switchman, waa the first man on top of the second robber. The two young men who are now experts on how not to rob a train, signed written confessions today, the sheriff said. 0 ROOSEVELT ACTS TO r.'T-QSTT ?P-. -T*?- k -PyPvvalue of the dollar now is $1.19.
