Masked Highwaymen Oper- ate in the Shadow of a Church. In the shadow of the First Baptist Church (colored) two masked footpads perpetrated a daring hold-up on Christ- mas eve. They waylaid and relieved Miss Annie Martin, who resides at 518 Powell street, of $3, all the cash that she had in her purse, and a bank book containing notes to the amount of $1000. The robbery was immediately reported to Lieutenant Birdsall, but the footpads had made their escape and the police could find nothing of them. When the holdup occurred Miss Martin was on her way home. The footpads, both of whom wore masks that concealed their features, sprang out from their hid- ing place and confronted the frightened lady with a pistol. From the deliberate manner in which the robbers performed their work the police are of the opinion that the are professional footpads. After having relieved Miss Martin of all the money which she had, the highwaymen took to their heels and made good their escape, At the time of the holdup there were no people on Powell street to whom Miss Martin could have appealed for as- sistance. Lieutenant Birdsall reported the hold- up to\Captain Seymour yesterday and he detailed_two men to search for the foot- pads. Notwiths ding the fact that the robbers wore heavy masks, Miss Martin was able to give a very good deseription of them. A notice has been sent to the bank in which Miss Martin has her money deposited instructing the man- agement not to honor the checks that the robbers secured IXPRESSMAN COMMITS SUICIDE IN A BARN Charles Steinway ' Hangs Himself While Suffering From an At- tack of Melancholia.
