Vhev were taken to Indianapolis and will have a preliminary trial before Commissioner Van Buivu. The cap ure is considered an important ne. Counterfeit silver has been circulated in the locality adjacent to Mitchell for some time past, bu:. tlie culprits seemed to cover up their tracks so well as to make their cap. ture a difficult matter. The new Mgei locomotive No. 74, and the first of eight of the same pattern to arrive for the L., N, A. & C. Ry. is a monster engine of eight drivers, twenty inch cylinders, and sixty tons weight. A good many railroad mmv are of opinion that these engines are too heavy for the tracks and bridges of the L , N. A. & C, but it is, on the contrary, the opinion of the officials and master mechanic of the road that the new engines will be just as safe cs the lighter ones and a g.reat deal faster and more powerful. The No. 74 will be taken to the shops in this city and set up this week.
