Kansas City. April IA Star special
from Memphis, Tenn. says:
Two men with drawn revolvers robbed
Ben Marsh's gambling house back of the
Peabody hotel this morning. The rob
bers spent three minutes in the place
and got away with $1,000. The police
have so far failed to find a clue as to the
identity or whereabouts of the men.
They were evidently experts in the hold
up business, working quietly and rap
idly.
Marsh and his assistants were ba1anc-
ing the cash after the nights play when
the robbers rushed into the room. There
was s., 500 in a wallet lying upon a table
and $500 in bills in the hands Of Marsh.
The four men in the room were ordered
to Ire down on the floor if they expected
to escape with their lives. The men
quickly dropped to their knees and the
robbers snatched the money in sight.
One man kept the four men covered
while the other stuffed the money in his
pockets

pockets. The gamblers made no resist
since. as they were informed that the
slightest move would mean instant death.
They secured but a small amount from
their victims pockets, overlooking a wal
let In Marsh's trousers containing $500.
Then covering the inmates with revOlvers
the robbers backed from the room and
dashed out OF the door When the police
department was notified. detectives went
to work actively on the case. but so far
have found no clue to the robbers.
