City, Mo., Dec. 2?.?Two
today were scouring the
around northwestern Junction
In all nearby towns,
'were looking for a bandit who cele
brated Christmas day by robbing one
I hundred passengers and shooting
Capt H. L Nebold, U. 8. A., station
ed at Fort Leavenaworth, on Mis
souri Pacific trnln Wo. lit, shortly
before midnight.
The train was from St. Joseph.
' for Bt Louis.
The bandit boarded th? train at
Leavenworth junction in the out
skirts of Leavenworth, and after the
train had started, poshed open the
door of the pnllinan and confronted
the crew and passengers with a re
volver.
After robbing them he cut the bell
cdrd leading to the engine, and cau
tioned the porter and conductor to
keep atilL H? went through the car
taking up a Christmas collection of
watches and money and proceeded to
th< chair car and smoker until he
had relieved every passenger of all
the valuables not nailed, down.
By the time the lone robber Had
finished his work, the' trsln had
reached Kansas City, Kansas, and the
robber' compelled the porter to open
a door. He dropped off at North
western Junction and disappeared.
When the train reached Kansas
Ctiy, the police and sheriff were noti
fied and posses were hastily organis
ed.
, No trace was found of the man and
it was believed that he either took
to the woods or came to Kansas City.
The train proceeded to 8t. \ Louis
with the paseengerB mourning Ihelr
losses.
The value of the money and watch
es and Jewelry stolen will not be
known utrttl the passengers file their
claims with the railroid.
Captain Newbold who was shot
when he attempted to stop th? ban
dit, received a painful scalp wound
He was cared for by a local physi
cian.
"We had Just left Leavensworth.
and I was in the forward end of the
observation car when the. robber
boarded the train,"' said Conductor
May today.
Mr. Johnson, a civil engineer of
Leavensworth, was sitting 1n the ob
servation end of the. car and saw
the robber climb onto the rear plat
form and over the guard rail. He
thought for a moment that the man!
had made a run for the train after it
had started.
As the robber entered th? door,
Mr. Johnson noticed he had a blue
bandana handkerchief tied around
the Jowar part of hie face. He told
Mr. Johnson to throw up his hands
and when h* did not suit the action
to tke word fast enough he struck
him on the head with his'revolver,
almost felMng him-.
the dlstanoe In which the robber
operated Is 17 miles. There were
no stops, and from the manner la
which the robbery was accomplished
It la bettsved the bandit bad studied
familiar with tralns and equipment.
Hare la how I got In tin picture
