ATTEMPT TO WRECK A TRAIN Xt Only Proved a Failure by aa Engineer tiood Judgment Elkhart Inch Aug A bold attempt was made at Siding just before daybreak to bold up tbe Lake Shore express train which passes this city at 130 As tbe train approached the station the switch was thrown tbe engine striking a pile of ties which bad been thrown across the track Engineer Bnntia saw that he could not stop in tune and concluded to run the gantlet and the engine plowed through the mass of stones and ties without much injury Just as the obstruct ions were leached there was a fusillade of shots and wild precaution to oonnect the sidetrack with the main line at the end of the siding and but for this the train would have been derailed and a frightful sacrifice of life wunld have been the inevitable result The train carried 20000 in gold and it was the knowledge of this fact that prompted tha bold attempt This is the wum train that was held np at Kessler about a year ago Had the train been stopped it is not supposed that the robbers would have been successful as the crew was heavily armed The express-cars on this tram are guarded by armed men CONSUL UNDERWOOD" DEAO Be Represented tbe
