KANSAS CITY, Nov. 30-Fifteen-year-
old Emma Layton an orphan, has been held
by the police as an important witness against
the four men who, Thanksgiving night, held
up and attempted to rob a car full of passen-
gers on the Kansas City & Independence
electric line. To Mrs. James Townsend who
cared for the girl year age, when she.-was
brought here from the Council Bluffs, To-,
asylum, she declared she had made the masks
for the robbers and knew of their plans
which were, she claims, concocted at the
home OF the Ridgeway brothers at Cent-opolis.
