With Hands Up.
BARTENDER'S CURIOSITY
REWARDED WITH A BLOW
Union Pacific Saloon i'm Murray
and Its Night Patrons
Lose About 5000.

The Union Pacific saloon at Murray
was held up Monday night at ll;30
clock by two masked men. who af
ter searching the pockets Of eight oc-
cupants, riied the till and made good
their escape with 5000.
The holdup is the most daring in
the history of the old smeltcr city. A
posse, composed Of citizens, headed by
Bishop Sheriff Michael Mauss, was i'm
mcdiately formed and search of the
surrounding country was begun. The
Salt Lake police department was mott.
fed and given descriptions Of the two
robbers.
The saloon was doing business as
usual AT that time Of night. Fred Carl.
son was behind the bar, and in front of
il eight patrons of the establishment,
there for their pightcaps. Tho high
waymeu entered with drawn revolvcrs
and their faces masked in white hand
kerchicfs They both wore dark suits.
All i'll the house were ordered 10
throw up their hands. Carlson think
ing that he was the victim of a prac.
iical joke, reached over the bar aud
attempted TO pull the handkerchief from
the face Of the nearest robbcr. But
the sincerity of the venture was mani
fest when the holdup struck Carlson
over the head with the side of his re-
volver, temporarily stunning him. This
incident brought the other occupants of
tho room in proper humor and they
lined up against the side wall with their
hands up and were relieved of their
valuables 4 gold watch was taken
from Carlson. The cash register was
then rifcd when the two men covered
their retreat from the building with
their revolvers and disappeared in the
darkness. They were still al large at

cejpt OF letter from the committee
of wholesale aroccrs Of New York. re-
questing the support Of the associa
