TFO PfIUGHES TAKEN. The Robbers Stop the Train and Escape. THE AIR FILLED WITH SHOTS The Amount of Money Se cured Not Known. Express Company Offi cials Say It Is Small. The Robbers to Be Tracked With Hounds. Tbs Central railroad eight express which left Savannah at 8:10 o'clock last night was held up five miles west of the city by two masked robbers, who were on the train. Express Messenger Coulter was forced at the point of their pistols to open the small safe in the express car and two through packages of money and several local pack ages were secured. The large sealed safe which was locked In Savannah and could not be unlooked by the messenger until reaching Macon, was not touched. LEAPED FROM THE TRATX, The robbers jumped from the train a short distanoo beyond the Charleston and ► Savannah railroad crossing, and firing their pistols to intimidate the railroad crew and passengers, disappeared in the direction of Southover junction. No violenoc was offered the passengers. The amount of money secured is un known. The Southern Express officials here will not say how much was in the safo. The first story was that one of the packages contained $15,000 and the other coutuinel $7,000. It is not believed, however, that the small safo contained that amount of money, as ali large through packages are carried in the sealed safe, ami tie amount of the rob bery is not believed to bo anywhere uear those figures. AUGUSTA AMD ATLANTA POUCHES TAKEN. The statement of the inessongjr tele graphed from Millen that the Augusta and Atlanta pouches were taken and several valuable express packages besides these, gives credence to the belief that the amount is larger than was at first supposed. The lnck of information by the express company officials here and their ignorance of the circumstances of the robbery ren dered it impossible to secure from them more than a meager account of wbat oc curred. FIRST NEWS OF THE HOBBKRT. Tbe first information received in Savau nah of tbe robbery was a telegram from Conductor Barney Cubbedgo stating that the express oar on the north-bound train bad been entered about five and a half miles from Savannah and robbed. The telegram was sent from Meldrin, seventeen miles from Savannah. As the robbery was committed only a little over five miles out it must have been done within fifteen minutes from tbe time the train left the city. By the time tbe news reached Savannah the robbers had a couple of hours the start. ' All particulars of the affair whioh oould be given were telegraphed in. Agent Cooper of the Southern Express Company was at once notified, and securing the serviees of Detectives Wetherhorn and Bascb, he at onoe went to work. PROBABLY WENT FROM SAVANNAH. The information received at the Central railroad offices goes to show that the two robbers left Savannah on the train, instead or taking the risk of attracting attention by getting on at Pour-Mile hill. Immediately alter the tram passed the Charleston and Sa vannah junction the men went forward into tbe express car and covering the mes senger with their pistols, demanded that he open ibe safe. He of course had no alternative but to yield to their demands. He opened the local safe, the key of which he oanled in his pcckvt, a a handed out the money. There were not very many packages in the safe, and the robbers did not secure as large au amount as they might have expected. Having secured tbo money they pulled the bell cord for the train to stop aad as it slowed down they jumped off. A VOLLEY or SHOTS. After jumping they fired ten or twelve shots into the air. Tbe shots were the first in timation the engineer and conductor and tbe crew and passengers on tbe train had that anything unusual was going on. As soon as bo reached Meldrim, Conduc tor Cubbedge telegraphed an account of tbe affair to the offioe at Savannah. AU the information obtainable about the robbers was that one of them ’ was a tall roan and the other \bont j 5 feet 6 inches, both common appearing i men, with nothing particuisr to distin * guish either one of them. The robbery was ! very quickly done, and the express messen ger did not take much time to study the appearance of the men bafore him. NOT BELIEVED TO BE RAILROAD MEN. It is not thought the robbers were rail road men, one reason be.ng that the rail road men who robbed the express car on the Central railroad at Collier, above ! Macon, a sbnrt while 030 were *0 quickly | apprehended that since thea traiumen, who might have had some inclination that ' way, hare felt slight temptation to suoh work. Railroad mea would have known better thau to rob last night’s train, when they were likely to secure so little for their work, but would have picked out a night when they knew that heavy remittances were being made. If they had struck one of the trains bring ing down the money to pay off the Central railroad employes with recently they might have made a rich haul. They would have known that the express com pany’s remittances on Saturday night are much heavier than on Friday night, as collections are made Saturday and remittances are made that night. may have been COONTRVMSN. The robbers may have been oountrymen living near the line of railroad who had an idea that the express carried large sums of money every night and that they would get a large sum by robbing any train. If they had been better posted they would have choaen a night when larger remittances were likely to be on board. It is believed by the polioe and detectives that the robbery was the work of shrewder and bolder men. It was certainly a bold robbery, and the railroad and express com panies will spare no effort* to capture the robbers. Being done so close to Savannah, it is more than likely that thoy will head this way. and everybody will have an eyeuDon every suspicious character that comes to town. A special train carrying Agent Wilkin son of the Central railroad, and Agent Cooper of the express company and several of the employes of the railroad and express companies left the Central railroad shed at 2 o'clock this morning for the scene of the robbery. Another train with the detectives and officers was expected to leave about 7:30 o’clock, with hounds to track the robbers. FROM ALONG THE ROAD. Morning News specials from Halcyon dale and Millen give, in substance, the same story of tbe robbery as that obtained in Savannah. A Haleyondale special save: “Train No. 3 out of Savannah to-night was held up by two masked robbers at tho five-mile post and the express messenger was relieved of two bags of money. As described by the sleeping car porter, who sow them leap from the train, tho men were white and were slender built and rather tall. They discharged their pistols to frighten the crew and pas sengers auil then disappeared in the dark ness.” A Millen special says: “Theexpress mes senger on Central train No. 3 said two men came in on him near flye-milo post with pistols and fired twice at him and demanded the keys to his safe. lie gave them his keys. The robbers took tho Augusta and Atlanta pouches and sovoral valuable packages. The messenger could not esti mate the sum secured.” ALL SORTS OF RUMORS. The rumors of the robbery were all over town last night, largo sums being named as the amount of the loss by the railroad company and the express com pany. No one seemed to know anything more than that there had boon a bold rob bery committed, but it furnished tho hotels, restaurants and saloons a subject for talk tho rest of the night. The police and detectives think if they had been notified sooner and the train otficiala, instead of waiting until they had got seventeen miles from Savannah before tele graphing the information, hal sent word at once from the scene of tbe robbery they might have got on tho track of the robbers with little trouble. Agent Coo Der was seen at 3 o’clock this morning. He said the total amount of money socured, if the robbers had got all there was in tho car. would have boon Tory small. The pouches contained simply cor respondence and small remittances. Tbe largo remittances aro forwarded by tbe day trains to preclude the possibility of their loss by robbery or otherwise. Later. 4 a. M. —The special has re'urned to the oity. The deteotives found footprints along the side of the track between the the five mile post and Houston’s avenue. Charles Clark, an old colored man living on the avenue said that about 5 o’clock yesterday afternoon two men passed his clace in a road cart, and made minute In quiry as to wbat road Houston avenue led to, and whether it was passat le. The men were apparently very anxious to find o:t all abont the goography of the country. Clark described one as a short, heavy built man with a ruddy oomplexion and heavy black mustache. Tho other, he said, was a tall thin man. The description fit parties who were seen in ths city for several days. Dotectives Bosch and Wetherhorn left the city at 5 o’clock with bounds to start on the trail.

A obancery case is pending before Hon. A. H. Macl)->neil as master in which a eon and daughter are arrayed against their in t her. It is that of Augustus L. Muller and Sophie Lingenfelser vs. Caroline Mul ler, administratrix of the estate of Martin Mu'ler. The son an l daughter olaim that their mother ha3 not made a satisfactory set tlement of their father’s estate, and are now suing to receive what they claim is their portion. Mrs. Muller denies that there Is auy estate to settle. Muller died in 1871 and left a bar room at Barnard and Bryau streets, but Mrs. Muller claims that her husband left such a large indebtedness that the proceeds from the sale of the barroom did not liquidate all of it, and she had to use her individual money to clear the debt. Muller and his wife also worked a truck farm on the Springfield tract, and at one time had a beer garden in operation there. Mrs. Muller claims that the farm is her own individual property. She has a few houses in the city also, which she says she purchased with her own money. Muder used to have a stall in the mirket and his wife kept this and the farm up some time after his death. The plaintiffs claim that their mother is in possession of assets belonging to the estate and that she has made but one return to the ordinary, but the defendant puts in a counterclaim that the little estate her husband left was entirely eaten up by his debts. The matter has been before the courts for a long time, and finally a month ago Judre Falligant appointed Mr. MaoDouell as mas ter to hear testimony and reader a decis ion. The case is one full of interest and has a slight tiage of romance connected with it. Shortly after Muller’s death toe family troubles began. Sophie, the daughter, became fascinated with a roan named Lingenfclser, wto was working on the farm. Her mother objected and finally Sophie, it was stated, eloped with Lingenfelsor and married him at a small station on the Central, between Milieu and Augusta. They stayed nway some time, but returned and lived on the farm. After a little while trouble arose amf the daughter and her husband moved away. Again they went back and again trouble arose and they left. This occurred several times, and finally Lingenfelser and his wife came into the city and are living hero now. Lingenfelser is clerking in tne of the large dry goods houses. Mrs. Muller and her son Augustus, it is enid, oouidn’c agree, and be left the farm also. Mrs. Muller claims that she made her money by keeping a boarding-house in the oity. The evidence will make a big reoerd. Stenogiapher John Fleming, Jr., is en gaged in transcribing that so far adduced, and pending this a recess has been take 1. As soon as this is finished the testimony for the defense will probably begin iu earnest, and some interesting facts will likely be brought out. The plaintiffs are represented by It. R. Richards, Esq., and Norwood & Cronk, and Mrs. Muller, the defendant, by Lester & Ravenel. AT THS THE A E t. Bobby Gay lor In “Sport McAllister, Or One of the 400.” The second performance of the season at the theater draw a largo audience last night. The bill was very attractive.

The September Storm Believed to be On Now. Yesterday was a raw, unpleasant day, a regular equinoctial day in fact. The rain came down in au unpleasant drizzle, made all the more unpleasant by the blustering breezes. Btorm signals were up at the sig nal station, but the signal service published reports gave no information concerning them or the existence of a storm anywhere. Fall clothing was neoe-sary for comfort. The maximum temperature was 76° and the minimum 66° and the mean was 6° be low the normal. Rain as general through out the Savannah district, Cordele report ing over one inch, and Eastman and Thom asville nearly an inch each. Alapaha, Albany and Quitman reported about half an inch each, and Bainbridge, Fort Gainos and Milieu over one-quarter of an inch each. The temperature was about the same as at Savannah. The same conditions prevailed through out the balance of the smtbeasteru and Gulf seotioeg as in the Savannah district, the Atlanta, Augusta, Memphis, Mobile, Montgomery ad New Orleans districts ail reporting rum aud low temperature. The general existence of these conditions is pretty good evidence that the usual equinoctial storms is now prevailing. Last night was a cool one indeed, and blankets were very comfortable. To-day’s prediction is for fair and slightly warmer weather. REOPENING OF THE SYNAGOGUES. The Services at Mickva Israel and Chebrah Talmud Torah. The Hebrew synagogues reopened last night after tho summer holiday. The ser vices at the Mlckva Israel synagogue were of the usual character attending the open ing of the temple. The regular exorcises at the re-opening of the Chebrah Talmud Torah synagogue at Turner hall at 6 o’clock were led 1 y Harry Hurwitz,Rabbi Hurwitz's 10-year old son. Harry has often assisted his father in tho services of the synagogue, and his tenth birthday falling on yesterday Ills father concluded, as a special favor, to allow him to read the prayers for the commence ment of the Sabbath. Harry went througn the lengthy serv ices, which are all in Hebrew, in a very creditable manner, appearing to be very familiar with them. He has a good, clear voice, which is one of the chief requisites for a leader in the synagogue. The Chebrah Talmud Torah synagogue is chi-fly composed of strongly orthodox Hebraws, who strictly observe Saturday as the Jewish Sabbath. INJURED IN A RUNAWAY.

Reports of the rice market from Now Orleans sa v that tbe market was quiet last week, and not very much rice changed hands during the latter part of the week. Clean rice is quiet, with but small demand, dealers claim.ng that the country is filled up with foreign rice, which has to be sold, even at a sacrifice, before the new crop of domestic rice can be disposed of.

Hough of Mao-on wore passengers on the Nacooohee for New York yesterday. The Boston newspapers givo Miss Annie Helen Blanoke (Mrs. Jamos Neill) very favorable notices on her first appearance with Neil Burgess iu “Tho County Fair.” The Post pays: “One member of the com pany stands out among them all as entitled to an especial word of praise. This is Miss Annie Blaucke, who plays the part of •Taggs ’ a waif who turns out to be ’Miss Abigail’s’ niece. It is a conventional enough character in the conception of the author; but Miss Blancke, with an art that is really exquisite, makes it fresh, vivid, spontaneous aud full of genuine hu manity. This young girl—a mere child in years, but prematurely in many respeois a woman: brought up in tbe slums, yet with a certain fineness of nature in her—by the potency of Miss Blancke’s personality, by the dry, sharp humor which can be trans muted at a touch into the keenest pathos, is made in some respects tho most interesting and most vital figure in the play. Hera is realism of a convincing sort—realism that has its roots deep in hutnau nature. A young actress who is capable of that beautiful portrayal of childish grief, of suffering too acute to find utterance, which comes to ‘Abigail’s’ protege when she learns she is to be sent away, has everything to hope for from the future.” The Transcript says: “Among tho players Desides Mr. Bur gess, Miss Blauoke and Mr. Mayer stand easily first in their admirably consistent, artistic and deeply-touching impersonations of the waifs washed up by the great sea of misfortune at the old farmstead door. With every temptation to exaggeration, both parts were played with an absolute sim plicity and truth worthy of all praise.” Mr. Neill is now in Boston rehearsing with Mr. Crane for the opening of the season iu Providence, R. 1.

How essential it Is that these minds should be united to strong, healthy bodies. So many children suffer from impurities and poisons in tho blood that it is a wonder that they ever grow up to be men and women. Many parents cannot find words strong enough to express their gratitude to Hood’s Sarsaparilla for its good effect upon their children.
