A large > posse is nqw in purawit of the bandits, r The express makes a short atop at j Forest Law?, and pbeo It came to* stop > pointed, revolvers at the heads ? engineer and fireman,'old them not to s attempt to stait the train again. While 1 this was taking place four men appeared ' at tho sido of the express car. Oae placed 1 a short Udder against the car, thcnchopp d a hole in the door. It took but a h moment to do this, and before the astonished mcsseng. r realized what was bap0 peuing, the door Lurst open and fotir men were in the car. Messenger Bran1 ford attempted resistance but was silence 1 , by a blow with a hatchet in tho hands of s the robber who had chopped a hole in 1 the door. The baodits lost no time in o ransacking the car. Bradford was only partially stunned by the blow he bad rc ccivcd nnd bis assailants revived him ami e forced hiin to optn the safe. Its conR tents they placed in a snck, together with c what other valuables they secured. Bran c ford was then bound, gagged and cast inl> to a corner of the car. When the bandits t had completed their task in tho express s car they jumped to the ground. The conductor and several of the trainnnn r opened fire on them. They returneii it w ith interest, though none of the bulkts. u so far as is known, took effect, c The bandits were armed with Winches 2 ters and revolvers anddrove their assaili a rts into the cars aflRmong the passens ecrs, who were rendered panic stricken , 1>y tho fusilade. The volley of shots i heard were apparently fired for intimi8 d .tion and then the robbers took to their heels. There was every chance for them c to escape as the place is a lonely one a with swamps and underbrush on each 5 side of the track for-* distance of two or 8 three mifos. - - ' ? There is uo telegraph station at Forest Lawn, rendering the summoning of aid in that way an impossibility. The members of the crew arc pooitivc the bandits numbered six. M? ssenger Branford states that everything of any value was taken from h's c?r. The exact amount of money lie declined to name. Ono of the robbers who entered the express car was addressed by his pals as "Bob" and wore chin whiskers. One of his bauds was bleeding from injutics received ou entering the car. lie wore a fox colored suit and weighed about 140 pounds. Auother one of the robbers who extended his attentions to the brakemau and made him obey his orders was about five feet eight inches tall, smooth face, age about 22, and weighed 145 pounds. Two who waited op the engineer were about 22 or 25 years of age, one measuring five feet six iuchcs, the other about six feet. No other positive description could be obtained of the others except that they wore black masks and dark suits. UNEARTHING A TREASURE. Jewels and Gold Hidden by Order of Maximilian Found in Mexico. City ok Mexico.?A few days ago some old and musty documents were found here by which it was learned that treasure, consisting of jewels and gold coin, amounting in value to $2,000,000,is buried in this city. The documents state that tlio wealth was secreted by order of Emperor Maximilian. The discovery of these documents produced a sensation amoig those who were permitted to share the secret, nud preparations were at once made for unearthing the treasure. Tho work of excavation was begun, and in a i short time a clay vessel Oiled with gold powder was uae?i tiled. Then came several pieces of silverware. A depth of only a few feet has been reached, the work having been temporarily interrupted by a great flow of water into tho cavity. As soon as the water can be shut out or controlled, the work of excavation will be resumed. There seems to be no doubt about the documents being genuine and it is believed that all of the great wealth will bo unearthed. Georgia Mellons Moving. Georgia melons have started North.
