New York Tribune. The second Fontaine locomotive engine was taken from the Grant Locomotive Works at Patterson, N. J., yesterday. It is peculiarly constructed and can attain a fast speed. The first engine built after this pattern made ninety miles an hour. Tbe engine is to be tested for two weeks on tbe New York, Lake Erie and Western rail road before it Is shipped to its destina tion. The peculiarity of the engine •* that it bat two sets of driving wheels, one on top of the other. The main driving wheels In tbe Fontaine engines era secur ed to an elevated axle above tbe boiler, and running in boxes supported by a suit ably braced frame, tbe cylinder and slides being eet obliquely and In a diagonal line to toe axis of the driving axte. Tbe driv ing wheels are of the usual construction, but do not touch tbe rails. Besting on the rails are other driving w bee’s of the same size m tbe upper ones, with which there is a frictional contact. There being ock, who has charge of tbe ice cars and who generally carries several hundred dollars, was asieep. 1 called out to him, giving him the opportunity to save something, saying:' ‘Getout your money, John’’ and he handed tbe robber $45 or $50, throwing a roll of *50 under the seat. Tbeu they pushed me along into tbe Pull man sleeper, banging tbe door open and talking very loud. The conductor cf tbe car came running up to us aud said: ‘Shut up that racket or you’ll wake my passenger*.’ The leader drew bis gun on the conductor and compelled him to shell out $10, which he said was all he bad. They did not rob tbe sleeping car passen gers, did not even wake them up. “The robbers were in a great hurry. I noticed In tbe sleeper that they all wore slouch hats pulled well down. Leaving tbe sleeper they marc! ’d me back through tbe entire traiu to the express e tr. This is a combined express ard baggage car, and tbe door Is not kept locked. The service is done by the Iron Mountain Compauy, the Southern Express Compa ny only running a messenger on numbe. j 1 and 2. Tbe leader said: ‘If any one makes a move, you’ll get it.’ Crowding me along with his revolver, he crowusd me Into tbe express car ahead of tuem, and Ban Sain, the messenger,went to: his revolver. I said, ‘Throw up your bands lien, if you shoot, I am gone.’ I was compelled to do ibis, for there was one revolver in my face, and tbe muzzle* of two others at ray head. “They made Sain unlock the safe, and took tbe packages themselves, tearing open the envelopes. Tbe messenger* purse, containing $40, they also appropri ated. After going through tbe safe one of them said: ‘Now show us a good place to get off,’ and they got off right where they robbed the train—about four miles north of Hope, and the same dis tance south of Emmett. When they had climbed up on an embankment tho leader yelled out: ‘Now go, and be d—d quick.’ “George Stanton, tbe engineer, who had been staudiug ou tbe grouud watch ing the robbery, started to get back on the engine, and not moving fast enough to suit tbe desperadoes, they fired a volley at him. I was in tbe baggage car, and fired four or five times out of the door to make the passengers get their beads away from tbe windows, for I did not know but that they might fire into tlie cars as we went past them. My baggage man. Ford, told them be bad no money, and they didn’t even take the trouble to search him. One of tbe passengers, a negro, an swered the demand for ‘change’ with tbe remark Ts pa'd once, bo**,’ thinking tbe robber was the conductor.” rsMtaMsr C—ml James Boat Bs.
