“THO GARDINALS TRAINROBBERY 4T | CHIGAGO UNSOLYED Two Clever Bandits Make Away ~ With 84,000 Loot Chicago, - March 30,—~Police and' American Railway Express officlals ! “loday were still without a clew that prolmsed solution of the hold-up of un express car on a New York Cen- tra) train;yesterday by two men who | cscaped with 'approximately $1,000, Authoritiés had hoped that Arthur ", Planck, Jr, 23, might be able to glve' them some information of value when a valise tag bearing his name was found near the rallway station in La Porte, from which the robbers tled. after leaping from the train, Young Planck, who was questioned | ‘by detectives, sald he had been in La Porte Saturday on business, but left at 6 o'clock, coming directly home. b “I.didn't know that the tag on my vallse was gone until police came to my home. It must have dropped off when I appeared at the station to take the train,” Police expressed econfidence Planek's story. According to M. F. Muldoon, spe- clal agent of the Express. Company at Cleveland, the robbers obtained less than $1,000 in currency, all in New York Central Rallway remit- tances, Muldoon explained that the largest shipments of money were carried on a later train. Howard Young of Buffalo, express messenger in charge of the car at the time of the robbery, who has been employed by the concern for eight years, was exonerated from blame by the company. . Young sald that the robbers, nat- tily attired, in gray suits, soft hats and gray overcoats, A handed him a note at the Fnglewood station in Chicago, signed by F. M. Hotchkiss, cxpress agent, authotizing them to ride in the car as far .as La Porte. This. note, which Young sald the robbers took with them, proved later to be a forgery. “They looked all right and I let them in,” said Young “In.a_moment they stuck guns under my nose and made me hold up my hands. They took my own gun, un- loaded it, and threw it at my feet. They bound my hands and feet, stuf- fed a gag in my mouth, and then set to work to rifle the car, At La Porte the robbers turned off the Hights in the car, slipped out of the door and ran for thelr car.” in CREATED TODAY Pope Holds Secret Gonsistory *+ Jor Archbishaps i By The Assoclated Pross.
