TRAIN IIONIINS ROUTEO

A Desperate Attempt to Pillage the
Los Angeles Express.

THE THIEVES USED A BOMB.

They Exploded It Against the Door 01
the Car—A Fuollade of Shots That
Drove Them Off—A Detective
Fatally Wounded in the Fight.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5.—The Los An-
geles express was held up by two masked
men a few miles south of Modesto at. 3:45
o’clock last night. The robbers boarded
the train at Ceres and compelled Nel‘f, the
engineer, and Wallace, the fireman, to ex-
tinguish the headlight and fill the boiler
with water. They then made them get
down and go to the express our and order
it opened.

Conductor Roche and a brakeman
named Fox were in the front car. They
went out on the platform and looked out.
At sight of the conductor’s lantern one of
the robbers called out for them to go
back, firing a shot at them. The con-
ductorv set his lantern back and fired two
shots at the robbers.

The Bullets “'hlzzed.

The conductor went back into the car
and found Leonard Harris, of Los Angeles,
a. detective, and another detective named
Lawson, who chanced to be on the train.
Harris got out of the car and walked to—
ward the robbers, who were near the ex-
press car, When about two cars’ lengths
from the express car Harris fired two
shots from a. revolver in their direction.
The robbers returned the fire, firing three
shots, all of which took effect, hitting
Harris in the neck and over the left eye.

A Bomb Exploded.

Meanwhile the robbers were compelling
the engineer to hold a torch while the fire-
man worked at the door. They called sev-
eral times to the express messenger and
his assistant to open the door and come
out, claiming that they would not hurt
them, but they refused to open the door.

A bomb was exploded against the door,
shattering the beams and . making an
opening large enough for them to enter
through, but the shooting byHarris and
also shots fired during the affray by the
brakeman, Fox, evidently scared them off,
as they left without securing any treas-
ure.

Harris Dying. .

Harris was taken to Merced, where he is
dying. As soon as news of the attempted
robbery reached Merced a special train
started for the scene bearing officers and
a. posse of' sixty men, who are new in pur-'
suit. Officers have also started from Tu-
lare, Modesto and Lathrop.

Pierced Through the Thigh.
CHICAGO, Sept. 5.-Isaac Jones was cling-
ing to a grip car, with his feet resting on
the footboard, when a horse and wagon
dashed against the grip. Jones was struck
by one of the shafts in the right thigh.
The wood was forced clean through the
leg. The flesh was horribly torn where
the shaft passed through. It was a sick-
ening sight, and two women in the car
fainted. After some difficulty Jones was
extricated and taken to the hospital. Not.
withstanding his horrible wound, he stood

the punishment without an outcry.

Salt Works Destroyed by Fire.

PITTSBURG, Sept. 5,—Beck & Co.’s salt
works, on Steuben street, were entirely
destroyed by fire. The destroyed works,
established seventy-five years ago, were
probably the Oldest in the state. Fireman
Dan Hart, of engine company No. 2, was
badly burned by falling into a vat of boil-
ing salt water, and several families were
driven from their homes by the spread ol
the flames. The origin of the fire is un-
known. The works will be rebuilt at
once.

The work has been delayed so that the

Sept. 10, will have to be changed.

.—

HARRISBURG, Sept. 5.-—-Iu the Democratic
state convention, after the adoption of the
platform and the appointment of the com-
mittee to select delegates at large to the
constitutional convention. the nomination
of candidate for auditor general and state
treasurer was next begun.

Hon. Walter E. Ritter, of Lycoming, pre-
sented the name of Robert E. Wright, of

z‘ - Allentown. He
said It gave him
great pleasure to
name the next au-
ditor general of
Pennsylvania. It
was necessary, he
said, to name can-
dldates in accord
. with the platform
just adopted; the
office of auditor
general has been
in the hands of

R. E. WRIGHT. t h e Republican
party for a score of years; the demand for
a. change and reform was overwhelming;
than Mr. Wright there was no stancher
Democrat in the state; no one can impeach
his honesty; no one doubts his ability to
carry the Democratic standard to victory.
Loud applause and much enthusiasm
greeted the mention of Mr. VVright’s name.

The nomination was seconded by Frank
Fitzsimmons, of Lackawanna, who prom-
ised a solid Democratic majority from
every one of the northeastern counties.

George Tillc, of Lancaster, nominated
James G. McSparran, of Lancaster, who,
he said, as a member of the state grauge,
would give strength to the ticket. D. C.
Dewitt, of Bradford, seconded the nomi-
nation.

Wright and Tilden Nominated.

The nominations closed and balloting

wits begun.

:

 

9. Mr.
Hill, who had nominated McSparrau,
moved that Mr. VVright’s nomination be
made unanimous, and the motion was
carried amid much cheering.
Nominations for state treasurer were
begun. R. H. Arbuckle, of Erie, named
A. L. Tilden, of Eric. His speech was
short and to the point. He said Mr.
Tilden was a man ,. ~:-._
of spotless repu— ’
tation and a man
on whom all in-
terests could and
would unite. J. N.
Dunbar, of Craw-
ford, seconded the
nomination. Dr.
John W. Riewalt,
of Dauphin, nam-
ed Charles W.
Raymond, oerid-
dletomu"a“ man,

 

A. L. TILDEN.

by reason of his ability as a financier to
perform the duties of state treasurer.
Hon. W. Bush Gillan, of Franklin county,
seconded the nomination of Mr. Raymond.

As before, there were only two candi-

dates. The vote resulted: Tilden, 394;

RaymOnd, 5; McSparran, 1; total, 450.

The nomination .of Tilden was made .
.unanimQIIS.

‘ Delegates at Large.

The committee to select delegates at
large to the proposed constitutional con'
vention, of which Patrick Foley, of Pitts
burg, was chairman, reported the following
names of those selected: ,

Charles R. Berkalew, Columbia; Chauncey.
-F. Black, York; George A. Jeuks, Jefferson;

George M. Dallas, Samuel Gustine Thompson,
David W. ‘ Sellers, Philadelphia; Henry W
Scott, Northampton; Robert E. Monaghan,
Chester; William 'S'. McLean, Luzerne; Frank
M. Vandllng, Lackawanna; John W. Latta,
Westmoreland; Roger Sherman, Crawford;
William Weihe, Thomas Lazearh Allegheny;
Samuel Griffith, Mercer; Grant Weidman,
Lebanon; George W. Zeigler, Bucks; R."'Mor
gun Root, Montgomery. .

A resolution expressing regret at the ill
ness of W. L. Scott and praying for his
speedy recovery was unanimously adopted,
and the secretaries were instructed to for-
ward a copy of the resolution to~Mr. Scott
at Newport.

On motion of Mr. Foley, of Pittsburg, it
was agreed that the chairman of the state
committee, together with the executive
committee, be empowered to fill any va-
cancies that may occur on the ticket nomi-
nat '6. today. This ended the regular work
of t e convention.

A committee was sent for Messrs. Wright
and Tilden, with instructions to conduct
them to the hall. The appearance of Can-
didate Wright on the platform was the
signal for the greatest outburst of cheer-
in of the day. Nearly every man in the
ha 1 rose to his feet, cheering and waving
hat, fan or. handkerchief. In accepting
the nomination Mr. Wright, among other
things, said:

Mr. Wright’s Speech.

We are confronted by the fact that our whole
administration of government in Pennsylvania
and her great cities has passed under the con-
trol of a corrupt political combination that per-
mits none to aspire to public place, except as
they may consent to become participants in
these wrongs, or to permit them without ob
jection. There can be no reform in Pennsyl
Vania until the machine that creates and main
tains this system 0 organized robbery is torn
up root and branch and destroyed. Therefore
it has come to pass that your platform is a very
simple one. It emphasizes the old truths of the

ten commandments.
‘ The injunction, “Thou shalt not steal,” is the

‘ cardinal one. On that plank the impending battle

must be fought. We must permit no confusion
of the issue when the honor of Pennsylvania is
at stake. The discussion of the tariff duties
ceased with us when the treasury of Philadel-
phia was looted. The silver question lost its
interest as the wave from the floodtide of cor'
ruption reached your state capital, and the only
reciprocity the people of Pennsylvania should
hear of now is that which exemplified
when the doors of the eastern penitentiary
closed upon the disappearing form of Bardsley-

Mr. Tilden followed in a short speech,

, thanking the convention for the honor

conferred on him. He said he preferred to
be judged by his future actions rather than
words. In reSponse to loud calls State
Chairman Kerr made a speech, expressing
his hearty belief in the ticket just nomi-
nated to sweep everything before it.

The convention then, with three cheers
for the ticket, adjourned without date.

Eleven Buildings Burned.
NASHVILLE, Sept. 5.——Fire destroyed the
