Considerable eXcitment was on tap
upon the arrival of the east train
last evening. A couple of landseekers
from Illinois claimed they had been
robbed by pickpockets, and had lost
their money and return tickets. Night
Watchman Sorenson was informed of
the case, but it was impossible to do
anything but look through the cars
for suspicious characters. Just as the
train was about to pull out Agent
Leighty discovered the pocketbooks
and tickets under some express on
the express truck. The thieves had
evidently gotten off the train here
and after taking the money from the
pocketbooks had thrown them on the
truck. The two landseekers were on
their way to North Dakota.
