ROBBEDAPARK TROLLEY
Band Of Bandits in Philadelphia

SIX MEN BOUND AND GAGGED.

Then tho Safe Was Broken Open and
the Gang Escaped with Two Days
Receipts-Three Men Arrested nud
Held on Suspicion.
Philadelphia. June 20.-Shortly be-
| fore / o'clock yesterday morning. when

ten or twelve. swooped down upon the
place and stole the money, after hold

binding them lizard and fast with pic
| ture cord. The mouths Of the cap
turcd men were gagged with rags.
The time and place chosen by tho
bandits were both perfectly adapted
for the desperate work in hand. The
car barn of the trolley company is To-
Gated at Glenside. midway between
the river and Belmont Mansion. in the
ravine leading down from the plateau
of Belmont to the Schuylkill. The
building is embowered IN heavy TIM
! Der land, and at that early hour Is as
| lonely and as far removed from tn
busy city near by rs II that city was 4
thousand miles away.
Not only were members Of the gang
Mt the immediate scene of the robbery
but 1t is a fact that pickets were oper-
ating miles away, destroying telegraph
and telephone wires at the terminus
OF the park trolley. so as to insure the
defeat OF any communication which
the trolley employees would be likely
TO send to the detective bureau.
The emplOycs overpowered by the
bandits were frank Levan, nigh,
receiver; Philip Ev1s, might electrician;
Henry Whi,ehousc, assistant electric
ian; William Cadenus, night watch
man, and c. Harry Watson. a conduc-
tor.
One after another these men were
bound by members of the gang. who
stood over them with drawn revolvers
ready to fire at the first outcry that
might be made. Nitro-glyccrine was
first tried on the safe, but that fail
ing the trolley company's own tools
were used to pry It open.
Throughout the commission of tho
crime-h took more than an hour for
the robbers to finish their work--they
exhibited all the assurance and show
ed all the characteristics of experienced
burglars. There is little doubt that
some one In the employ Of the com.
pany, who was either member OF the
gang or in collusion with them. had
given them full and complete infor.
nation OF the lay OF the ground.
AS result Of the vigilance OF the
police three men were arrested later
In the day In the park on suspicion OF
being connected In some way with ths
robbery. At a hearing before Magis.

and addresses as Peter Duffert and
Charles Smith, of Newark, N. j., and
