I ACI TI--AL.0ST G"N TME. "Carolina Special" Makes Fine Trip From Charleston-Marking Epoch in Travel. Cincinnati, Ohio, Jan. 3.-Robert Y. Hayne's dream of a commercial em pire 'will further be realized if the united efforts of Cincinnati and the territory through which the "Carolina 3pecial" passes counts for aught. That was the sentiment breathed here to day, in the meeting of the represen atives from the South and those of the West, who received the visitors here on the first trip of the new train. From the Sunny South and warm weather, to the snow laden cold cf *is region, the first north-bound train of the through route was brought yes terday and today, arriving here less thaa one hour late, the delay be ig caused by encountering a snow storm at Danville.. Mayor Receives Party. Mayor Louis Schwab, of Cincinnati, welcomed the visitors at his office in the City Hall this afternoon, and Col. August Kohn, of Columbia, presented in an appropriate little speech the let ters from the mayors of Charleston, Columbia, Spartanburg and Asheville.

Vegro Porter Killed-Money and Jew els Taken by Bandits-Train men Also Suffer. Ogden, Utah, Jan. 3.-Southern Pa 3ific train No. 1, the Overland limit d, westbound, was held up by two nasked bandits at an early hour this norning at Reese, nine miles west of )gden. One negro porter, William Davis, was shot and instantly killed ind another porter, A. W. Taylor, was nortally wounded. A passenger was 3lightly wounded. One hundred pas sengers on the train were relieved of :heir valuables. The robbers did not ittempt to enter the express car, but levoted their entire attention to the Pullmans, where they made a rich 2aul among the California-bound pas ;engers, holding the train for more :han an hour. The train proceeded westward. No passenger escaped the robbers and the trainmen also lost their money and ewelry. At 12.30 this morning Con juctor Cunningham advised the super ntendent's office at this place of the old-up. The sheriff and police depart nent were immediately notified, and posses left the city for the scene of .he hold-up in automobiles and on a pecial train. Posses from the nearby .owns are working toward Reese. Two masked men stopped the train it the little watering station by throw ng -the red light on the signal stand ;oward the approaching locomotive. ks it came to a standstill the bandits ,overed the engineer and fireman with :heir revolvers and held them until the 3onductor rushed up to investigate the lelay. He too, was placed under ,uard. O.e of the robbers left the trainmen n charge of his companion and start d through the train from the forward md. He encountered two porters on Iis way and when they disregarded his 3ommands he shot one down and x,ounded another. A curious passen ;er also was wounded. The shots aroused the occupants of ,he cars and when the hold-up man ippeared with an open sack and a nenacing pistol, the passengers were perfectly willing to contribute to his sollection. He went .through the en ire train, stopping at every berth and naking a deliberate search. After 3mpleting their work the robbers rove away in a vehicle. About four miles from Reese they met two girls who were returning ame from a dance. One of the rob ers very politely requested them to land over their purses and to "beat t." Although frightened the girls succeeded in getting a good descrip :ion of the bandits, which tallied wit' hat furnished by the passengers and rain crew. After robbing the girls-, the daugh ers of Bishop Waymont, of the Mor non church at Warren, the highway nen drove toward the city. Early this morning no report had een received from the five posses hat are now in the field. Two Bandits Tracked. Ogden, Utah, Jan. 3.-A posse of of icers heavily armed have tracked two >andits believed to have held up the' )verland limited at Reese last mid ight, to a point four miles beyond he scene of the hold-up.
