A DOUBLE HOLDUP
Two Men Held Up and Robbed
ON the Milwaukee Station
Platform.
They Were Only a Few Feet
From Evening Passenger
Train East.
Men Arrested at Webster for the
Crime but Both Make
Their Escape.

ZeH
A very bold holdup occurred last
evening ON the platform at the Milwau-
kee station, two men being held at the
point of revolvers by two other men
within a short distance of the depot
itself and within ten feet of the train
which was almost ready to pull out for
the east. Harry p. Miller and Fred
Kreunemacher, who had been working
IN this part of the country for several
months and We're about TO take the
train for the east, We're, according TO
their story, standing rear one OF the
posts erected for holding a lamp, when
two men walked from toward the ear
end of the train. Miller and Kruene-
macher were approached and in the
face of each a revolver vas thrust, and
they were quietly told not to nov on
pain of death. The two footpads then
went through their pockets, taking $l5
cash from Miller. When the money
wa secured from Miller the thieves ran
around the rear end of the train and
disappeared. 1t is alleged that owing
to the almost entire absence of light ON
the platform, people only a short dis
tance away did not discover what was
going on until the footpads had left the
platform and their victims gave the
alarm.
The train pulled out almost immedi-
ately after the robbery took place and it
was suspected that the thieves We're
aboard the train when it started. Tele-
phone and telegraph messages were
sent down the line and the train was
searched at different points for the
alleged culprits. At Webster two men
were taken from the train, but n OF
them got away from the officer on the
platform. The other was held and
Deputy Sheriff Shaffer went to Webs.
ter this morning with a warrant tc
formally arrest and bring him to Aber-
deem, where it is said the two victims
will be able Il identify him. 1t il
alleged that the two robbers rode on the
break beam or the roof of the train
until after Bristol was reached, when
they entered a car.
Deputy Sheriff Shaffer and Night
Officer Linnett, who went to Webster
this morning, returned this afternoon
Without the men captured there on the
train. They found ON reaching there
that the men had both escaped from the
officers who had them in charge, ant
were somewhat surprised at this fac
not having been communicated by tn,
Webster officials after word was sent
that the men had been captured. The
story told is that after the two mei
were taken off the train, a revolver sho
was fired not far from where the officer
were with the men. Both officer
turned to see where the shot came from
aud the two holdup artists cut loose ant
ran away. 1t is supposed that the sho
was fired by an accomplish, who tool
this means of attracting the attention
of the officers while the men got away

incentive of reward, and solely from a
sense of duty.
But II is not fair 10 the city nor TO
these gallant men that upon so small
number should rcst so large It burden.
Scranton has necd of Il more Numerous
police force. The estimates ask for ten
more. We should say this should We
doubled. Certainly 1t should not be re-
duced. The cost is trining compared
with the Increased security to life and
property. Had our police ana fire SER
vice in the past few years been what
they should have been. both in numbers
and IN quality of discipline and equip
mcnt. real estate today would be worth
one-third more than II is ana Scranton
would not have gained the repute
abroad of being a place where the
forces Of mischief have large latitude
and powerful support. What is past
cannot be changed. but our citizens
must blame themselves if the future
should also go wrong by default

TN THE PROVISION soon to be
made of ways and means for ear
Il rying on the city government for
next year, the request OF the lie
partment Of public safety for ten addi-
1ional patrolmen should be granted
unanimously. Public opinion should
see to it that councils respond promptly
to this plain and pressing public neres-
sity.
There is not another city in'tle init
ed States comparable with our own in
size. and so far as we know none in
the civilized world. where the ratio of
patrolmen to population is as low as it
Is in Scranton. When all The pdtrolm"n
are we'll and on duty we HAY" one FOR
each 2,312 of population: but actually,
taking into consideration that lact that
patrolmen are lnman and therefore are
liable as other people to be laid up by
accident or illness, to be absent ut stnt-
eu intervals on vacation or To be sr,!,-
pended through necessities Of discipline.
the ratio of effective patro.mcn in
Scranton, with lis twenty square miles
of area, its large mixture Of various
races. ana its numerous disturbing fac
tors, is about one 10 every 5000 of popu-
lation, which is about the ratio prevail
ing between the population Of the Unit
ed States and our regular army prior
10 the Spanish american war, In those
days ihost OF our citizens had 20 travel
many miles Ia catch sight ot a regular
soldier, and today The spectacle OF Il
Scranton policeman patroling the resi-
dcnce sections is one thai is rarely
visible oftener than once in twenty
four hours; not because of any derelic-
tion, but because by no process of
mathematics can forly-three pItrolmen
be subdivided 50 as To patrol more cf-
fectively the great eXpanse of territory
comprehended within our police limits.
Throughout the troubles of The past
few months. during which criticism
from all sides has sharply assailed our
ntyhicipal executives while they have
been ndefatigably though quietly nj
woih to make scant means go 10 the
limit of human possibility in enforcing
law and order, the police force Of
Sdranton, though insufficient In NUM-
beYe, has chee"fully worked eighteen
and twenty hours a day under Il ten-
siop emitting them TO public gratitude
instead OF public censure. Man for
man, their work during this trying
period viii coml,ale with that of any
police force in the United States. Easy
as ii is to criticise without knowledge,
we speak what we know TO be the truth
when we say that there. are men today,
and high percentage of them, on the
police force of this city who deserve
medals of honor for courage, faithful-
ress and trying service performed out

mas EXcesses. IL" is usually one of
those automatic, nmchine-like men who
never commit eXcesseS because their
hearts are like IN cight-day clock nni
their blood like the Lackawanna river
in midsummer These men do not
know what it i TO have Il good thrill
in life. II is an experience from which
they have been congenitally debarred.
But the observance of Christmas con-
tinues and increases. Every year it
seems to be filed fuller of meaning and
pleasure. in spite of the expense, at
which our watcrv blooded friends shy.
The opportunity ii gives for busy and
toil-tired mankind to get away for
time from the iamntOn grind and give
a little play to the humanity within
them is too agreeable to be put aside
because ii costs something. A Christ
mas without expense would be no
Christmas at all. In that lies its hold
upon people. The planning, the saving.
the pushing back of self to make way
for thoughts and plans and cXpenhi-
lures for others. this is what makes
Christmas. Without these things
Christmas would mean no more in the
life of the common people than an o.
dinary anniversary that has to be r"-
called by searching the calendar.
If we We're smart it could not be AID
that "Christmas comes but once "a
gear There is really nothing but our
own shortsieht tedness to prevent the
American people more especially from
having a ChristmaS whenever they .cel
Ike it and from feeling like it real
