When the train reached Birmingham on time, at 8.37 o'clock p. m.,! two of the mail clerks, George Hoov ( er and E. G. York, were found hand- 1 cuffed, Chief Clerk Harry Everett's I thumbs were tied together with heavy twine. ! The robbers boarded the car at Caera, on the* dark side, after the train had began -to move. Faces Ordered to TTall. The clerks said they immediately were covered with pistols and ordered to turn their faces to the wall, j Everett looked around, was shot at the shot striking near his head. 'The robbers jumped from the train at | Fourteenth street, Birmingham. j Everett said both robbers were! short, slender men. He did not get1 * a good look at their faces. The i ^ clerks first saw the robbers jump j to the mail car on their hands and 1 ^ knees. One man kept his pistols on the clerks while the other ransacked! :he mail.' The distance from Calera to Birmingham is 33 miles. There I was ptenty of time to make a thorough job. No one on the train other than the clerks apparently knew the robbers were abroad. Engineer Suspicious.
