New Yorker Among Victims of Serio- Comic Holdup on Michigan Central Road. CHICAGO, Jan. 2%--With the as- sistance of two reluctant but badly geared porters, 1 lone bandit held up four passengers on the rear sleeper of the Michigan Central passenger train due here from Detroit at 7.90 A. M. to-day. It was a serio-comic affair which fetted the bandit something under $300, The robber entered the train at Jacksok, Mich,, and left it about fit- teen minutes later when Louls ‘Thombs, one of the porters signaled for the emergency braken, T. Meritts, porter of the car en- tered, waa the first to y the rob- ber, who pointed « pistol ft him and handed him a bag. “Here,” said the bandit, who was dressed in a black and white check sult and wore a cap pulled down over | his eyes, “you go ahead and wake the | passengers.

Quit your kidding and let me sleep!" came the angry re- | ply from the berth. “Tell him I'm a real robber with a gun,” interposed the bandit, who Poked the weapon between the cur- tains, whereat there was a tinkle of coins falling into the receptacle in the porter’s hands.

Mr. Karibecht of the Industrial Union League had explained while oc- cupying the chair that the objects of the meeting were to call a mass meet- ing in Cooper Union and arrange a parade around the City Hall to make the Mayor take immediate action for the relief of the unemployed. Then he put his bands on the table and got serious, “A young lady,” he declared, “who is @ member of the executive com- mittee of the Woman's Trade Union League, told me last night that un- leas the league could run the affairs of the unemployment commit to suit itself that they would not give @ cent to help tho girls in their fight for publicity, and sho gloated over the fact that the Cooper Union ofi- clals wanted $45 for the use of the hall and that the girls Jid not have the money to pay for it.” AT THAT THE TROUBLE BROKE ABOUT Hié EARS.
