POTTS RELATES THE STORY. Tlie Messenger's Side of the Train Robbery. How the Bandits Secnrpd the Booty at Roscoe. I'ullmnu Conductor Hampton Glt«s m Graphlfl Account „f the Aualr. Tha Mall Agenl'a Story. There were no pew developments in the Uoacoe train robbery ell Air yeeter day. The detectives aro still firm in the belief that they will eventually run the bandits down, and are working vig orously to that end. More than one ciue hae been obtained that may finally lead to an arrest. TUB MAIL AGKNT'S STORY. The Ran Francisco Chronicle of Mon day givee the following version of the robbery ac given by people on the train when they arrived in San Krancieco: This is the story related by Fred X- Potte, messenger for Wells, Fargo & Co.: ' "I was asleep when the explosion took place. Tbe force was so great tbat it seemed to lift me bodily from where 1 was lying. Immediately after the ex plosion two men climbed into the car and made me throw up my hands. Then they ordered me to get out of the car, which I did. One of the men had a Winchester strapped to his back. One man had a red bandana handkerchief tied about hia face and the other wore a white flannel mask. Tbey were both about 5 feet 0 inches in height. One ■would weigh about 175 pounds and his companion, I think, waa about ten or fifteen pounds lighter. It was dark, and 1 could not distinguish their feat urea closely. I noticed that one of the robbers wore a black slonch hat and tbe other a light Fedora. "After 1 got out of the car the rob bers ordered the engineer to ditch the train. We pleaded witb them not to do thia, and finally they decided not to ditch the cars. When tbey got ready to go tbey ordered tbe fireman, engi neer and myself to walk ahead on the track. Tbey bred a volley aa we did so. We walked along for a quarter of a mile. Then we came back to the car. 1 am not at liberty to say what the loss was, and I have been advised not to re late nt present what took place with reierence to the robbere after tbey en tered the car. I cannot reveal what was done to the safe. The loss was a very small one." THE PULLMAN CONDUCTOR'S DESCRIPTION. The moat graphic description of the ■"robbery was given by T. A. Hamsun, the Pullman car conductor. Mr. Hamp ton relates what he caw and heard him self, and tbe facta learned from con versing witb trainmen and paesengere. Hia acconnt is aa follows: "We were about 11 miles ont of Los Angeles, a little way thiß eide of Bur , bank, when I ielt tbe brakes put on by the engineer, and the train stopped with three or four jumps. It must have stopped within 30 feet after the brakes were put on. Then the firing began. 1 The robbers must have climbed over a ! frnit car which waa between the baggage car and the tender. Tbey got on the tender and tired into the cab. At first > the engineer thought he had run over a < torpedo on the track, but after the; had 1 fired five or six shota they hallooed to ' the engineer to stop. "I heard about 20 shots in all. There wae a conatable or some aortof an officer from San Bernardino on board the train. I He got off and walked toward the rob- I hers, saying: 'Qentlemen, gentlemen, wbat is tbe meaning of ail this?' "On* of the robbera ehonted; 'Get back there, you — — !' "The conatable declared that he was I an officer, and the robber shouted 'You get back now, will you,' and fired a .shot. The conatable hastened back to the coach. "One shot was fired throngh the mail , car and the mail agents were warned to keep inside. Another shot struck one of the passenger couches. "Two shots were fired on one aide of the train and responded to by two more irom tbe other eide. The two robbera, who took an active part in the proceed ings, after the train had been stopped, kept the engineer and fireman with tbem. When they got read; to attack tbe express car they placed s dynamite bomb against the door and told the , engineer to light the fuee. He did so ' and the two trainmen and the robber ran back to await tbe explosion. The light went ont and the bomb did not '' burst. "Tbe robbers aent the engineer back at second time to light the fuse. No bet ' ter success attended thie effort. Then they eaid to Stewart, that is the engi neer: 'You go back there and light tbat ' iuee and you stay there till it fizzles. When it lizzies you rnn.' "Stewart did as he was told, and when ' tbe fuse began to fizzle he ran back to where the robbere etood. ■'When the explosion took place it ' caused a panic among the passengers. ".The train was stopped about4s minutes. 1 Then we were delayed an additional hour at the next station. "I do not know how many men were engaged in tbe robbery. Some claim to bave seen three men, and otbers cay there were only two. It is thought that two of the men were passengers who got on the train at Los Angeles and were last seen in the paeeenger coach aa we neared Burbank. There is a theory that tbey lii it tbe coach at Burbank, got npon tbe baggage car and then crawled over the fruit car, which waa ahead, to the ten der. It this is correct, tbere must bave been a third man, for when the train • stopped there was a little bonfire on tbe track ahead—a signal, I suppose, to show the robbers on the train that they > bad reached the place to commit the robbery. Tbere. may have been other robbera about, but it was too dark to get > at the situation clearly. "Somebody in the forward coach had I stuck his head out of a window juet be ' fore tbe bomb exploded. A bullet 1 struck tbe frame near his head, and be did not need the profane injunction 1 wbich followed to keep his head in. "I noticed today that tbere were bul let marks on tbe boiler bead oi tbe 1 engine, so that the engineer must have narrowly escaped the bullets." AS SEEN FROM THE MAIL CAR, 1 There were three men in the mail car—Harry Watkins, William Weller and Frank Lorey. "Train 20 left Loa Angeles on time," ■aid Mail Agent Watkina. "Wben we i got about a mile eaet of Roscoe I thought we we~e in a wreck. I was near the car door. My first impulse wae to go out l' and see what tbe trouble was. Then I 111 the flash of the guns and heard ths shots. There was one shot on each side of the car. I knew then that we wars in a bold-up. "Tbe next thing that I saw was a tramp, who had been stealing a ride, jump to the ground and start on a rnn for the brnab. Tbe robbers called on him to stop bnt he kept on running. Then there was a regnlar fusillade. "We began to abut up the doors of the cars. There waa one which waa stiii partly opan when one of the robbera came by. He hallooed into the car: 'If you fellows don't want to get hurt you better keep quiet.' "Due bullet was fired into a corner of the mail car. it wae irom a Winches ter. "The bomb wbich blew in tbe door of tbe express car wbb in a aoitof tin about six inches high, with a ehort fnse. Tbe explosion shook the mail car. I believe, though, that it was black powder that was used and not dynamite, for the re port was very loud. If a small quantity of dynamite had been used the noise would not have been bo great. If a large quantity had been used, enough to have made bo heavy a report, it would have blown tbe car to pieces." ONE HIIOT AT TIIK BAGGAGEMAN. "The train stopped in an instant after the brakes were applied," said William Maaaie, the baggageman. "Tbere wae a quick jar, a tremble, and we were at a standstill. I was in the baggage car. I heard the shooting and looked out. A bullet whistled by my head aud struck tbe passenger coach next to the baggage car. Almost at the same time I heard aome one ehont: 'You — — — take your head in.' Tbe baggage car wae not disturbed." BESTAURANT LICENSES. THE POLICE COMMISSION DISCUSS THE SUBJECT. A Saloon Lleenae Hevoked—A Commun ication to Be Bent to the Council Kmbodylng the Views of the Commission. Meearß. Weldon, Arnold and Boßby abell were present at tbe police commis sion's meeting yesterday. Tbomaa Coan was granted a saloon permit at 1146 Eaat Firat street, trans fer from L. Schmidt. It was given on report of tbe chief that there waa no conspiracy to defraud the creditors of Schmidt. Wilson & Beloblarek were granted a saloon license at 231 North Los Angelea etreet, tranafer from li. Faetenan. C. M. Hulitt was granted a saloon license at 411 North Main, transfer from C. Arthurs. Applicatione were received for saloon permits from Quentano Leaser at 635 Huena Viata street, Oleaaon & Camp bell at 712 East First street, transfer from E. 8. Morton, and C. Arthurs at 416 North Main, transfer from Spinetta Brothera. J. M. Houeer waa appointed a special officer without pay from the city to keep order at the Wood worth meetlnge. Mesara. Weldon, Boabyahell and Ar nold preaented tbe following report and on motion oi Mr. Weldon it was adopted : "Your committee, instructed to in vestigate certain reports regarding the violation of city ordinances and police regnlationa by some saloons, would beg to submit the following: We believe the Weatminater saloon, corner of Fourth and Main streets, D. J. Lewie, proprie tor, is being conducted in a disorderly manner and we believe city ordinances are being violated by the tama, "In regard to some of the other places on which reports were made we wish for further time before making report, aa we believe many of the aaiooua are trying to hide behind the restaurant li cenae. Some saloons that bave bad their licenses revoked on account of vio lation of city' ordinancea governing sa loons, have taken out restaurant liceneea at |2 a month, and are Belling aa much beer and liquor as formerly wben they paid $50 tor a licenae, aaving $48 a month, and under leas restriction. "We recommend the following com munication to be forwarded to tbe coun cil from the commisaion: "We, your police commisaion, in try ing to enforce the ordinances passed by your honorable body governing saloons in the retail liquor bneineaa of tbis city, find onr hands practically tied by the connection or similarity of certain so called and licensed restaurants and Borne saloons. We have revoked tbe li censes of several saloons for violation of your ordinances, and they have immedi ately been granted a restaurant licenae (over which we have no control) at $2 a month, then go on selling beer, etc., seven days in the week and as many nights as they choose, with no restric tions. We have therefore not attained the object sought but have lost the city a revenue of $48 a month in each case. We therefore deem it advieable to ac quaint you witb these facta before fur ther action is taken." In accordance with the report the li cense of the Westminster saloon was re voked and tbe board then adjourned. IN THE POLICE COURT. Some of Those Who Celebrated Too Heavily. Jndge Seaman and Bailiff Appel had their bands full yeeterday, there being over 40 cases in the police court. Jndge Austin also had a heavy time in trying the Chinese iantan players, three of whom were convicted. Tbe other seven will have a hearing today at 9:30 o'clock. Attorney Davie is prose cuting the gambling Chinese. Besides the numerous drunks and sus pended sentences of vagrants, Judge Seaman dealt out justice ac follows: Robert Dwyer, U. F. Owen and Wm. K. Jones were each given ten days in jail for begging, and John Mayes got 30 days ior tbe same offense. George Love was fined $10 for battery. Manuel Peal undertook to fleece the unsuspecting Alameda street cypriana by celling braaa jewelry at silver prices and was arreated for peddling witbont a license. He waa fined $3, L. R. Humewell waß arrested for dis turbing tbe peace by engaging iv noisy harangue npon tbe sidewalk. He waa adjudged not guilty. Samuel Zwicki, an old man, was found by Detective Boaqui in another man's room, and he was arrested on a charge of attempted burglary.
