AT MUzZLE OF REVOLVER
TWO BOLD ROBBERS HOLD UP MIR.
AND MRS. HENRY j. M'CASLIN.
One Ransacked Grocery Store While
the Other Holds the WeapOn-De-
scrfption of the Robbers.

Two highwaymen, bold and determined,
Mr.. McCaslin's grocery store at New York
street and Arsenal avenue at 7:45 o'clock
last night, and held them at the muzzle of a
revolver while one of the two robbed the
cash drawer of between four and five dol
lars in change-all of its contents. Accord
ing to Mr.. McCaslin's description of the
hold-up. the robbers were cautious, took
precautions to guard against capture.
Mr.. McCaslin told Bicyclemen Askins and
Duncan, who were called to his store
shortly after o'clock last night, that he
and his wife were standing in the store
Strengthening the place after an exceed
ingly busy day when the two men entered
and. drew revolvers from their pockets
One Of them pointed his weapon at Mr.
and Mrs. McCaslin, who were standing
together, while the other picked up a meat
cleaver from block and destroyed the USE
fulness of the telephone. With one blow
he severed all of the wires connecting the
instrument with the exchange and then
laid the cleaver down and began a search
for money in the store.
He found the cash drawer would not
yield to his efforts to open it and picked
up the cleaver again and pried ii open. He
took all of the money in the drawer-be-
tween four and five dollars in small change
mot neglecting in his theft to take the
nickels, dimes and pennies, and dropped
all of II into his pocket. After despoiling
this drawer the robber looked for other hid
ing places for money and found none. With
out saying anything to his companion he
started to the door and the other slowly
followed, backing away from the terrorized
grocer and his wife and keeping his re-
volver pointed at them.
MAKE THEIR ESCApE
When the two highwaymen reached the
door opening on New York street they
darted suddenly out and across the street
They were soon lost in the darkness and
despite the efforts Of McCaslin and volun-
teer hunters no trace of the thieves could
be found.
The bicycle police searched the neighbor-
hood, but from the descriptions furnished
them were unable to find the two high
waymen. One of the men is described as
being smooth shaven, of a red face about
probably $50 pounds, and attired in a dark
suit of clothes with a black souch hat
pulled down over his eyes. The other
highwayman is remembered a man five
feet seven inches tall, smooth faced
weight about 135 pounds and dressed in the
same color and style his companion.
The robbery Of McCaslin's grocery by two
highwaymen recalls similar occurrence
in Coleman's saloon on West Washington
street about two months ago. The rob-
bers in that affair were dressed in dark
clothing and more masks but their method
Of robbery was almost identical with that
pursued by the two men last night.

does not distinguish between the visit of the
United States European squadron to Mar

United States North Atlantic squadron. or

declined an invitation TO visit Kiel during
the coming regatta there. Therefore some

A number of doctors were subpoenaed
yesterday as witnesses for the defense in
the case against Rufus Cantrell, charged
with graverobbing, which will go to trial
in the Criminal Court tomorrow. 1t is
understood that special plea of insanity
will be entered for Cantrell by his attor-
neys and the doctors will be asked to give
expert testimony regarding his mental con-
dition. The prosecution is inclined to smile
at this action on the part of Cantrelrs
lawyer in view of the fact that they pro-
duced him a witness in the Martin case
last week and interrogated him as sane
witness.
1t is reported that Isom Donnell and Wal
