Baltimore is now in the throes of an
other keep down the lid crusade These
spasms on the part of the police force
have come TO be regarded in the light of
jokes. because the lid remains down only
about two or three Sundays and then the
old order of things again prevails I, is
expected that there will be a number of
raids tomorrow. because the lower ele-
ment of saloonkeepers does not regard
seriously the order OF the police to keep
closed Sunday. On one OF the most prom
inert thoroughfares in the city there is
a saloon that never closes and IL is a
common sight TO see policemen standing
within a few feet Of the side entrance
as the thirsty ones wend their way in
and out Of the saloon in the early MORN
ing hours and Sundays. j. NJ D.

Conductor Ledman Robbed
aud Assaulted by Foreigners
ON WAY TO HIS TRAIN
Had Almost Reached Caboose
When Knocked Down.
Ledman's Injuries May Prov
Vi Serious WAS Found Unco ascious
by Crew, e

When Daniel Ledman, an Erie
freight conductor, was summoned by
the Erie night caller to take out
a west bound train about two
o'clock Monday morning he was
confronted by two armed men In
the local hump yards of the road
and upon his refusal to be held up
lie was quite severely handled. Led
mans condition is quite serious and
after being given attention here, he
was this morning transferred to his
home In Huntington. Two men who
are thought to be MS assailants are
under arrest.ti Eu J,m. 10 a.
, early this morning Ledman re-
ceived the message to take out tho
freight over, the G. a. Il. This was
not the customary run which had
been assigned him and henmnde his
way hastily to the station and into
the yards where the freight way
staidlng ready TO leaye.Guf He was
within a short distance uof the Gu
boose when he passed two men whu
Immediately turned about and de-
manded the overcoat which he wore.
Tedman made some remark stating
that he needed It as he was about
to go on his run and no sooner
had he finished his remarks when
he was struck over the head AMI
badly beaten.
1t is supposed that the robbers
desired to obtain the overcoat and
with that any other valuables which
the conductor might possess. The
pockets of the victim were search
ed and nothing of special value
found, the robbers making short the
work and finding their way west
ward along the Erie tracks.
The injured conductor who was
in an unconscious state was found
by members of the crew who were
to leave with the freight Alarm
as to Ledman's failure to respond
to the cal led to the discovery OF
the body and soon detectives were
searching the surrounding territory
for the robbers Little was accom-.
plished until late this mornins
when two suspicious characters, both
Slavs, were arrested and brought
into police court. Owing to the fact
that difficulty was experienced In
interpreting the language of the
foreigners they were not arraigned
until a late hour this afternoon.
Whether these are the guilty par.
les Is unknown.
Ledman is fifty years old, and
has been with the road for some
time. Owing to his somewhat ad-
vanced years his injuries may
grove very serious. I.edman had
been assigned to no regular run,
having taken runs between this
city and Huntington at the summons
of the yard caller. " '"'f
The examination Of the injuries
Ledman received show thatGle sub-
fered severe cash over the lett
eye, an ugly brtise and several cuts
over the, face. lie also suffered q

was branded by Mr.. Wilson as being
without the slightest foundation In fact.
