KANSAS, CITY. Mo-. Dec. 31.--James +.
Kennedy, the leader of the trio of robbers
who held up and robbed the Chicago & AL
ton east-bound passenger train at Blue Cut,
near Independence, last week, has been run
down and arrested by the local police. He
was taken at his home at Crackerneck a
small place near the scene of the robbery.
arrested and brought here to-day, his ar
rest not being known until his safe arrival
in Kansas City. 1t appears that the detec-
tives working on the case have followed
Kennedy since the day following the rob
berry, and made the arrest on the strength
of two bank notes in his possession. and
which were identified as those taken from
the express company safe. The corners OF
the notes had been torn off in hurriedly
taking them from an envelope. In the en-
velopes. which We're left behind. the
missing corners were found and exactly
fitted the bills found on Kennedy. Ken
nedy is about twenty-elght years of age
and says he is a locomotive engineer. and
formerly worked on the Southern Pacific
at Houston. Texas. lie refuses TO talk
about the robbery or to give any clew to
his pals His arrest is considered very
important, as he is believed TO have led the
gang that held uD the same train at the
same place two months ago. II will be re-
membered that the engineer OF the train
described the leader as an engineer or
some one very familiar with the workings
OF Il train.
At the jail, later Kennedy was positively
identified by Engineer James Witten and
Fireman A. +. Post, OF the looted train.

leader of both hold-ups. He IS known to
have spent money freely since Christmas

his fingers as he taunted Express Messen-
