This was done, and when the train had come to a stop, two other masked men ame out of the brush and joined the first two.

The newcomers ordered the fireman and engineer off the engine, and handing them two long poles on which were sticks of dvnamite, compelled them on pain of death to march to the express car, and order the messenger to open the door. If he did not they were to use the dynamite to blow open the door. The engineer and fireman marched down to the express car, the bandits meantime keeping up a fusillade to intimidate the passengers. Arriving at the car, Barrett asked the messenger to open the door, but received no answer. The bandits then took the dynamite from the engineer and fireman, placing them against the door and lighted long fuses.
