PURSUIT OF ROBBERS
Texarkaua, Ark , Sept. 4—The six
\ men who held up the Cotton Belt passen-

rode their hor-es up Aiken Creek and
left them standing iu the stream. They
then use 1 a handcar and went five miles
north, as the handcar was found near
where the train was stopped. After loot-
ing the mail and expref-.-* cars, the rob-
bers returned to the creek, mounted
their burses and again rode down the
stream, thus obliterating their trail*. It
is. said the entire hall wa- £50,000.
