Chicago, April 30 The Louisville ex-pre arrived about three hours late, and the pasuengers and trainmen give the following; account of the robbery of the train near Harrodsburg, last night: Shortly before the train reached Bloomington a man, having the appearance of a tramp, entered the express car from the smoking car armed with a heavy hickory stick. Ia the express car were George K. Dtvis, an express messenger, and Peter Webber, a baggageman. He struck Webber on the head, felliug hiin. Davis then ran for his revolver, but before he could reach it the man bit him also, and thu taking away the revolver shot him in the bead.

He then made tbe baggageman open the safe and take out the money. The tramp then pulled the ball cor and stopped the train, but tirsn Area at Webber, the bullet striking him iu the forehead. Webber succeeded in reaching the smoker and gave tlie alarm, bat tue solitary train robber had disappeared in the darkn. A.n alarm was not given until the train hvl reachtd ftltxiiuiugtou, wbu Heard w.n he gun. The amount stolen is not kuown, liu exceeds 6 l'W lUvis and Webber are it alive, but lue former cauuot recover.

He gasped out to the horrified pateu gers that a robber had entered tbe baggage car and shot hiin and the express meweuiger, and then tell uncourcious npon his fase. Conductor Chamberlin entered the baggage car and found Davis stretched in a pool of blood by the side of his safe, which had been broken open and plundered. Everywhere was evidence of a terrible struggle. The floor was littered with paper that the assassin bad taken from the safe, and the heavy boxes stored in the car were scattered around in confusion.

Davis, who was breathing, was carried into the smoker. He had been shot in the upper part of the head. The Baggage Master's Statement. Webber, the baggage master, after ward said that both doors of the car were open at Harrodsburg, and he and Davis were asleep, Just after the train got in motion Webber was awakened by a violent blow on the heat, Staggering to his feet, he saw a tall, masuular man struggling with Davis. The messenger was bespattered with blood, which was gush' ing from a wound iu his head, he also having evidently been struck with the club while asleep.

Webber fell to the floor. Davis managed to loosen his right hand and draw his revolver, but before he could fire the robber wrenched the weapon from bis grasp and leveling it like lightnin, pulled the trigger. The ball struck the m.i. senger in the head and he fell dying to the floor. When tbe safe bad been rifled the robber left the train as it slowed up in an swer to the bell.
