Va., but up to a late hour no trace of them had been found. One automobile party which return ed to Parkersburg, 60 miles from the scene of the robbery, reported that to have been overclothes supposed worn by the men and two revolvers were found in the country back of Tollgate, where they left the engine and mail car, but there was nothing to lead to the identity of the men. Reports regarding the amount of the loot obtained varied. One re port said that Postmaster Sims Pow ell, of Parkersburg, was advised late today that federal bank certificates were in the packages stolen from the mail car but the amount was not specified. Officers of Parkersburg who left there early today said they followed clues in several directions without re sult. They brought back word that two men in an automobile had driven through Middlebur,n, the county seat of Tyler county. Officers thre who made the attempt were unable to stop them. The local government officials who have' been in touch with the situa tion are of the opinion that the ban dits were aware money from Wash ington was on the train, as it has been definitely learned they -demanded the Washington packages of the mail clerks. Engineer Grant Helms, of Parkers burg, who was at the throttle when the hold-up , occurred ,r said he be lieved the robbers . boarded the train between the engine and the mail car at Central when the train stopped to take on water. . Shortly after . the train started again two men climbed over the tender and down into the cab, covering him and Fireman T. R. Knight, of Grafton, and ordered that the train be stopped. The command was not obeyed un til after Engineer Helms struck at one of the men, thinking for the mo ment it was somebody trying to play a joke on him. However, on seeing that the bandits meant business, he stopped the train. One of the men then ordered the fireman off the en gine. The two bandits commanded Helms to run his engine a short dis tance ahead. At the points of their revolvers, Helms was then ordered to leave the cab. Three mail clerks were in the car when the bandits en tered and the clerksk thought they were some of the trainmen. At the point of revolvers the robbers de manded the registered mail, of which there were about 90 packages on the time and wer doubtless in the fray, bench. Two of the clerks, Cecil Tliese included Moriac, Casey, Swee Plummer and C. R. Phillips, were or- ney' See?er and Bob Scanlon, the ne- dered to leave the car and the train was then run a short distance far ther, Haines Huff, clerk in charge of the car, being retained in order to point out where other registered mail was kept. He was then ordered to leave the car also and the engine and mail car were takn vw uiifa ic by the Wandits. At ToHgate the two men abandon ed the engine and car and got into an automobile which ws in charge of an accomplice. Thev were seen to go in an easterly direction from that place. The engine and mail car were lo cated near Tollgate by Engineer Heims, who backed them to the scene of the hold-up. The trip was then resumed. When the train arrived at Parkersburg Postoffice Inspector G. W. Newton boarded the mail car and questioned the clerks-. It was said the mail clerks declared that more than 100 packages of registered mail had been taken, but that it was im possible at present to estimate the value of the packages stolen Inspector Newton said- there was considerable currency in the pack ages. All the clerks on the car con tinued on to Cincinnati. The opinion is quite g nerally en tertained among railroad men here that thr- bandits were experienced railroad men. V-ngineer Helms said the man who covered him with a revolver told him notr to allow too much water to get into the engine Policeman Sent to Roads. In the Superior court at; Wilson last week Police Officer Cooper was given three months on the roads by Judge Rountree for assaulting How- ard Barnes. one nignt in June the policeman arrested Barnes for being drunk and pommeled him on the head three or four times with his billie. The jury , found that exces sive force was -used-and Judge Roun tree severely reprimanded bim for. his conduct; He deolarjed .that a drunk en man can :be-arrested without such a violent assault; . . ? f v : ? -,. ; Bead our special October subscrip tion offer on the third page. the prposedrfcroimjmDn ffgMT igalnsr HinipTed out W LeadeV pavis, lll be i y.wtrttnixA ot nil In .fOXln. siaerauij i-. .- - fhom in hi letter to the Observer and that they tQott: the sfinie; view atv did such of the newspapers-as were pleased to speak out in : the; matter? The explanation of Mr. Davis, set the league straight with the people, but they are still talking about it. It is the understanaing oi me uasei that the policy of the Anti-Saloon League will be largely shaped for the future by Mr. Gay, the recently elect ed field secretary, who is described by the Biblical Recorder as ';a leader who is both prudent and aggressive." The mistakes of Mr. Davis in the past appear to have been in the direction of aggressive wildness through over zealousness in the cause. The Re publican papers have taken, much de light in exploiting his recent letter to the disadvantage of the Democratic party and have lost no chance of turning it to political effort. It was the public criticism of the plan di vulged by Mr. Davis that caused the friends of prohibition to enter a word of dissent from turning the or ganization to such a political use, these friends having been quick to realize the menace that might come intp existence for the good of the league. They weny concerned more about the welfare of - the, prohibition cause than about any possible harm that might be. done the. .Democratic party, and steps were- taken to rescue the., league from acy probable dam age that should come through-going to- extremes, in a district or state campaign of the character that had beenr outlined..; - In the- management of the Anti-Saloon League there are too many good politicians to permit of making it a political machine. Charlotte Observer. Americans in Big Battle. A dispatch from Paris to the New York Sun says: As far as can be ascertained at present the Foreign Legion took an active part in the offensive in Cham pagne, even leading in a part of the attack. There were many casualties. As the American members of the legion have not yet been drafted into the regular French regiments they must have been in the fight. The latest letters received from them say that an attack was expected and that they were preparing for it. Victor Chapman and Kiffin Rock well being in the aviation school and Chatlcoff being on convalescent leave must have missed the battle, but some 20 Americans are known to have' been with the legion at the gro boxer. Dr. David Wheeler, of Boston, whose letters are the latest to ar rive, describes his perfect enjoyment of life as a private and says he re fused a recent opportunity to leave the service. On the morning of the attack, he says, the officers adctanss- ed the men and the army chaplains gave absolution. At about 9.12 the artillery fire ceased and at 9.15 the attack began. Hoosier Poet Honored on His Birth day. James Whitcomb Riley, aided by the state of Indiana and the nation Thursday celebrated one of the hap piest birthdays. of his life at his home in Indianapolis. He was the parties mar guest at a tneatrical perform ance in the afternoon and at night attended a banquet given in his honor. ivxuie man z.uuu. or the poet's menus greeted mm at the theater A number of his poems had been, set to music and these were interpreted by dancers. Some of the most prom-: meut men in tne wnr H rf spoke at the banquet. One of the unique presents re ceived at the Riley home was a birth day cake shaped and colored like a pumpkin. Crowning vit was a layer of frosting. It typified Mr. Riley's poem, "TIT Frost is on th' Pump-, kin." A card bore the message that the donor desired to be known only as "Old Aunt Mary.", Mr. Riley is 66 years old. lcllcia t William Carr. Dead. William K.
