STIIAISGE RAILWAY CRIME.

A Robbery Which Could Mot OccurIn nn American Train.

Paris Telegram to the London Standard.A daring attempt, under novel circum-

stances, to rob or murder a passenger in0 train is reported to have occurred in CheBordeaux-Parts express recently. M. Al-bert Roux, a Parisian lawyer, was re-turning to thecapital from the south, andin order to l>e able to sleep on the Journey,he had taken a seat in a coupe carriage,In which be £vas the 6nly passenger. Assoon as the train had started on its jour-ney M. Roux made preparations to liedown, and was dozing, when he was awak-ened by a peculiar odor which seemed tohave suddenly invaded the compartment, jand which, according to M. Roux, resem- ]bled spirits of wine. As he had a small Ispirit lamn In his traveling bag, M. Rouxthought might have got broken. As !he was getting up to Inspect it M. Rouxnoticed a man on the footboard of his car- ;riage, endeavoring to open the door, whlcJa,fortunately, was also locked from the in-side. M. Roux drew’ a revolver which hehad in his pocket and pulled the alarm, ithe train being brought to a standstill be-tween St. Sulpice and Vavzre. Meanwhilethe man had disappeared from the foot-board, and, as he was not to be found inthe train after a careful Inspection, it ispresumed that he jumped down as thetrain drew up, and made off across coun-try.

In the next carriage to that which M.Roux had occupied, however, a discovery'was made which leaves no doubt as tothei intentions of this mysterious passen-ger. A small hole had been drilled throughthe division which separated the com-partments. Through this hole a glasstube had been introduced, and some piecesof India rubber tubing, which had beenleft on the seat, showed that chloroformhad been poured through them. It haddoubtless been calculated that the chlo-roform would fpll close to the sleepingpassenger’s nostrils, end that he wouldhave thus become overpowered. Havinggiven the anaesthetic time to act, the thief,it is surmised, got out of his carriage, andIntended entering the carriage occupiedby M. Roux to rob him. M. Roux wasable to give to the police a careful de-scription of this individual, whom he hadpreviously noticed nt Bordeaux station,and who seemed desirous of getting in thesame compartment with him. but was ap-parently deterred by his engaginga coupe.The police have scoured the surroundingcountry, but up to the present have beenunable to find any trace of the culprit.
