On account of the Heavy run ol express and ba^a^e an exlra ear has been used for some tune past.

Evidently the robeers were not aware of this, and as soon as the mistake was perceived, they turned and left the car, intending to go to the express car, which was the next car in the train. Mr. Griffin, who was expecting the attack 011 the express ear. had taken up a position in this car heavily armed. The express messenger, Dan Laske, an old employe of the express company, was in charge and had occasion demanded, would undoubtedly have defended the property of the express company entru.-te.i to him with his life. As the tvain stopped, C. F. Algood and

The time consumed in the attack and repulse was ss short that it as all over almost before the passengers were aware of what was taking place, and the train was delayed not over 15 minutes in all.

The man on the engine jumped off when he saw his comrades were repulsed, and disappeared up the bank in the darkness remarking as lie jumped "Now you can go."

The dead robber proved to be Jerry Morrow, and the wounded man his sou Tom, two well known characters living in the edge of Wayne county about 15 miles from the scene of the attempted hold-up. 1

Morrow is a uian of about 55 years of age, and is thought to have been the loader of the gang. He and his two BOUB have long been a terror to the neighborhood and country in which they lived.

earth cut, while three remaining ones attacked tho express car. The scene of tho hold-up is in a heavy cut just south of tunnel No. 9, and at a lonely spot. The robbers were evidently intent on plundering the express car and reaching here before daylight if possible. The remaining members of the gang will probably lie apprehended and brought to justice.

The attempt was well planned, andwolild probaoly have been successful had iuformai Ton not leaked out. As it is, it is a signal victory for Mr. Griffin and his asso.- ates, and they are deserving of the h.^hest praise t\' their brav- ,J ery ami gallant "defense of va.0 train.

The bodies of the deatJ rien were

taken to Greenwood on a train following No. 3. and wore turned over to the coroner ol the county, who will hold an inquest. The yi mji:j er man iiad his possession sevenil ••-••oo.l sized stvoinf sacks, in vrhich it is presumed they intended nh'.eiiiq their plunder.

special agents, who were in the forward part of the smoking ear, which car was just behind the express car got out on the ground and started forward. A sentinal standing out 011 the bank above espied them by the light of the train and began firing 011 them at once. The fact that the night was dark, is all that saved them from instant death.

By dodging and miming forward, they escaped, and seeing the robbers,: who had been in the baggagecar, ad-:!Shead vanelng they opened lire upon tuem, killing one instantly and. so badly injuring another that he died about 4 a. 111. from the uil'ects of his wounds.

As soon as the firing began ?.[r. Griffin jumped out of the express car, and in* so doing nearly lost- his life, as a bullet barely missed him as. it sped past. The detectives were armed with double-bar-rel and repeating shotguns loaded witii. buckshot, and the firing was quick and decisive. The battle lasted but a few minutes, when the robbers beat a retreat up the bank and disappeared in the woods and underbrush, leaving their dead and dying comrades behind.

A tramp giving his name as William Martin, residence Allegheny, Pa., riding on the blind baggage and wh 1 the train stopped he got, off and ran ahead to avoid being seen by the train crew. He heard the man who climbed 011 the engine say lie would give the engineer woi'd when to go, and turned back to get on again, thinking the tram was about to start. During the firing he was struck in the left arm and side 1 and was afterward found badly wounded. He was brought to the hospital at Somerset and it is doubtful whether he Will recover, he being shot through the intestines. It is not thought that he was concerned in the attempted robtiery.

After committing the crime the Taylors are said to have buried the family iu a strawstaek. Nellie was left for dead, but she heard the Taylor brothers converse about the murder, she keeping quiet, fearing they would kill her. When day broke she went to the farmhouse of a Mr. Pierce, where she told her story. A long hunt for the Taylors was inaugurated, but it was eight or nine months before they were captured iu Arkansas. They had very bad reputations previous to the time the Meeks murder was fastened on them by the story told by jSellie.

Minister Thurston's formal note to Secretary Gresham announcing lus intended departure Iroiu Washington reached the secretary yesterday morning, is understood to be brief, almost to the point ol curtness. It contained 110 reference to a leave of absence or cause of departure, but simply stated that he intended to depart for Honolulu, leaving Secretary Hastings in charge of the Hawaiian legation.

The note is said, by those familiar with diplomatic communications of its class, to have been remarkable for its omission of the customai*y courteous explanations, and absolutely unique in failing to announce whether his government iiad or had not given him leave of absence.

Ac the state department hereafter Mr. Hastings will be recognized as Hawaii's diplomatic representative until not.ee of the selection of a new minister is received.

By tins time Sergeant Murphy had grabbed Stanley and further shooting was prevented. There was a terrible stampede When the first shot was fired, but no one was injured.
