NEGROES

ESCAPE TO

CHICAGO

The two armed and bold negroes who struck up L. V. Swoverland. Pennsylvania ticket agent at Gary early Tuesday morning and made their escape with some $300 in cash, some tickets and the agent's watch and money have so far eluded the authorities ana likely have made their escape into Chicago . The daring negro bandits staged their hold-up shortly after Ticket Agent Swoverland opened the ticket office window while waiting for the Atlantic express to pull in about one o'clock. The station was deserted at the time. Both wore overalls. One of them shoved a revolve rthrough the grating of the ticket effice window and demanded that Swoverland open the grating and hold up his hands. They were of a desperate type and offered no resistance. As soon as the ticket agent had raised the window one of them crawled through the opening and entered the ticket office while the second bandit stood guard over the waiting room and the ticket office. Things were turned upside down and the place was ransacked. After the negro had gone through the cash drawer and safe, he took about $50 in cash and a watch ff-om the ticket agent. A long freight train delayed the arrival of the police. It is also reported that the two bandits cut the telephone wires and for this reason Swoverland was forced to run to a restaurant to call the police. The two bandits were seen later In the vicinltcy of Sth avenue and Maryland street where they bought a bottle of milic from a mUk man.
