TRAIN HELD UP j BY LONE BANDIT Chicago, Apr. 17.—(INS)—A lone bani dit who last night, held up the Over- ' land Limited, crack train on the Northwestern lines, and robbed a dozen passengers of cash ami jewelry valued at several thousands of dollars, was flic object of a city-wide search today. The robbery was staged as the train, west-bound to Sail Francisco, rolled out of the downtown station. The bandit, well-groomed and dashing, had mingled with the station crowd and gained entrance to the i train on pretext of bidding farewell : to a friend. As the train moved slowly out of | the station, he stood on the observation car platform among a dozen passengers who were waving good-bye to friends. Scarcely had the train cleared the shed when the bandit quickly covered his face with a handkerchief ami whipped out a revolver. "All right folks, make it snappy," lie commanded. “Put up your hands and be nice, and nobody will get hurt.” After relieving the passengers,—several of whom were women —of their wallets and purses, and snatching 1 whatever of value was handy, he pulled the emergency air cord, halting the train as h neared a suburban station. He then leaped from the car I and disappeared in the darkness. Prominent among those robbed were W. H. Crocker, president of the j Crocker National Bank of San Francisco. and his daughter, Helen.
