Charleston, Dec. 1.?An un
known white masked man robbed
a Southern express company oar
at Branchville, S. O., on the
Southern railway tonight. The
train had just left the station
when Messengers Ramsey and
Rhoder, were covered with two
revolvers held in the hands of a
stalwart robber. One messenger
was made to stand with his hands
over his head and the other was
commanded to hand over the
money packages in the safe.
Seventeen hundred dollars were
secured and the robber, after
warning the messengers not to
put a foot outside of the car until
the train had got under head way
again, pulled the bell cord ?nd

up. The conductor sa?e the robber
as he escaped alongside the track,
but thinking hiai a tramp,signaled
the engineer ahead. When the
train got under headway the messengers
came out and told their
story. The car was a combination
Baggage and express car and the
door had been opened to permit
the conductor to reach the bag
gage section, which was in the
forward section of the car. It was
on account of this fact that the
robber was able to enter the car.
One of the safes in the car which
escaped the robber's notice contained
$8,000. The sheriff of Dorchester,
with six men and two
hound", has been hurried to the

take up the chase.
A special from Branchville says
that two men committed the rob
hery, but the messengers, who
arrived in Charleston, say that
there was only one robber.
Manager Ferell, of the Southern
express company in this city,
said this morning that he knew
nothing further about the .natter
except what was reported in the
morning papers.
Col. O. M. Sadler, of the express
company, was immediately notilied
of the robbery and he went
down to Branchville this morning
to make further investigations as
to the robber*'.
Two messengers were in the
express car, because the Augusta
and Columbia trains consolidate
at HranchviUe.
The News and Conner has the
following statement of the rob
bery.
The messengers were not into

viewed by the reporter, because
they were told not. to talk, but
J Su perinteudent Pinekney was
seen. lie admitted that money
had been taken from the messengers
shortly after the train on the
Southern railway, clue in Charles
ton at 0:17, left Eightv-six. The
exact amount, lie said, he could
not. name, because the accounts
of the messengers had not been
checked up. Mr. Pincknev said
that Messengers Rhodes and
Ramsey were in charge of the car,
and that later, when a thorough
examination was made, the com
pany would give out a statement
of the facta.
But there were other ppople on
the train, and these the m-saaen
gera had told the story in the few
momenta of the excitement fol
lowing the robbery. A reporter
for the News and Courier talked
about the matter with Mr.
C W. Garria, railroad commiss
ioner; Mr. John J. McNamee, of
CharleHton, and Mr. Charles J.
Rauch, of NAw York, all of whom
were aboard of the train, although
none of them knew anything
about the robbery until it had
been auccesfully carried out.
Captain Black waa the conductor
in charge of the traiu, but he
could not be located last night.
After hearing the atones of the
three gentlemen named, each of
whom had heard rocit.als of difforanf
napfc F t-ka ~

porter gained the following
knowledge of the robbery :
The train had stopped at Fifty
eight, which is the s trae number
of number of miles from Char
le8ton as indicated in the name.
When about a half mile out of
Fifty-eight the train came to another
halt. Captain Black and a
train hand jumped off to see
what v?as the matter and saw a
man in the marsh making away
from the track. They supposed
he was a tramp who had been
stealing a ride, and had pulled
the train down to Ret off as is
sometimes the case. Captain
Black signalled the train to go
ahead again and as it got under
headway the news of the robbery
became known. One of the messengers
rushed from the baggage
car into the smoking car and hurriedly
told Captain Black what
had happened. The s'ory of the
messenger, and heard by Mr.
Kauch, was this :
Justus soon as the train left
Fifty-eight there was a knock on
the door of the baggage car. It is
customary for the conductor and
train hands to pass through the
train after leaving stations, to
(look out for people beatiug their
j way and also to get to the baggage
car. The door leading into
I the express car is always kept
! locked, and when one of the train
crew wants to pass through he
knocks VVheu the knock was
heard the messengers thought it
| was the conductor and opened it.

j As soon as lie did a Htal wart white
man, masked, stepped in and covered
both messengers, holding a
pistol in each hand. He commanded
: '"Throw up your hands, you
, or I'll blow holes
in you." Although there were
arms in the car tho messengers
were taken completely by surprise
and had nothing else to do
but obey. As one of them remarked
afterwards, the man
talked so fiercely that he would
have held up his feet, too, if he
had been ordered.
There were two safes in the
car, on of them only being risible
to the robber. One of the
messengers was made to stand in
the corner of the car with his
hands above his head, and the
other was ordered to open
up the safe and deliver the money
packages. All orders of the mask
ed gentleman were rapidly and
promptly obeyed as soon as they
were issued. When he had possession
of the money the robber
told the messengers that he intended
to stop the train and get
oir, and that if either of tnem
dared to Venture out of the car
until the train was under head
way again he would kill them.
Lie was quite cool, and told the
men that he would stand by the
steps of the car in order to carry
out his threat if they disobeyed
him. The highwayman's parting
ing injunction was carried out to
the letter, as the forgoing illustrates.
No one blames the messengers,
for they took the most reasonable
alternative offered by the veiled
visitor, and did what nine out of
every ten men would have done.
When it's a question of being
"bored" or giving up a little
money belonging to some one
else few people will invite a boring.
