HOLD-UP IN SUBWAY
New York Bandits’ Haul NEW YORK, June 6. The Metropolis was treated this afternoon to one of its more spectacular and least frequent forms of hold-up—-the theft of a payroll in a crowded speeding subway car. A bag containing 2100 dollars carried by a woman eleik was snatched from her hands by one of two youths, while the other kept the guard and passengers quiet. When the train stopped at a station the bandits disappeared into the darkness of a tunnel. A radio alarm brought the police cars and every underground station was surrounded, but the bandits escaped.
