ARE VERY CRUEL Make Metbods of Jesse James' Seem Tame | Harbin, Avg. 10 (UP)— tics of North Manchurian band Hunghudze bands—employed ir reeent hold-up of a passenger train | on the Chinese ern railway would have made the methods of the American Jesse 1ws gang ap- pear comparatively tame. Five passengers were killed, 12 wounded and between 30 and 40 led away for ramsom while loot mated at several hundred thousand dollars was taken. Tronically enough, on the day pre- ceding the hold-up, the administra- tion of the railway heard a lengthy report that the Hunghudz openly camping along ra and were terrorizing employecs Occurs At 4 A, M. The held-up occurred at 4 a. when express train No. 3 from Vladi- stok to Manchuri was working its way up a steep incline between the arahedze and Gaolindze stations. Near the top, the first engine i- denly toppled over an e nkment —the tracks had been unbolted. The | slow speed at which the train had been proceeding prevented the re- | maining cars from being wrecked. Occupying dominant positions on nearby hills, the bandits opened rifle fire, Meeting no resistance, they in- vaded the train. Bandit Executed Half elad passengers were dragsed fzom the cars and herded together in groups while their effcets wer searched. A young Russian woman who tried to shield her small son from a leveled pistol was killed; Professor Anert, of soviet Russia, | whe had given up all his Lelongings, | or no n railway esti- i e b 3 SO R o reason at all ar man who tried to give first aid to a | wounded Chinese pissenger received & bullet through the abdomen, | In the baggaze van, a mechanic from the train crew was forced to open a safe which confained month- ly station reccipts.
