VICTIMS PLEA WINS
LOOT FROM BANDIT
Desperadoes Hold Up Saloon,
Make Rich Haul, and One
Gives Money Back

OAKLAND, Feb. 23.-Two armed
desperadoes, one with tender spot in
his criminal heart, and the other lack
ing that feature, held up and robbed
the Tank saloon on the San Leandro
road with its. proprietor and customers
tonight, securing S120 and relinquishing
$40 after it had come into their pos
session.
The proprietor. William Drury, was
serving Isador Merle, a brother in law
of Assistant District Attorney W. H. H
Hynes; John Befgeveder, Joseph Wan
descheid, DIR. .O'Donnell and John Merl-
sen. when the two men appeared in the
doorway and commanded all. to throw
up their hands. Drury was slow in
obeying the order and one of the high
waymen threatened to shoot him.
Then one man remained at the door
on guard and the second went into the
room and robbed the till of $50. Next
he turned his attention to the men,
and relieved them of $40 in hurried
search.
Merle was wearing diamond pin
and turned it around in his tie so that
the jewel was concealed. But the rob-
ber at the door had noted the sus-
picious action, and when his partner
had finished and was about to leave
the sharp eyed one said
Go back and search that one; he
looks like ready money"
Thereupon the man searched Merle
and took $50 from him.
Say. look here" pleaded Merle, q
need that money very mueh--pro badly
a whole lot more than you do. Don't
take it, and I'll treat you right some
day"
The robber argued for few mo-
ments, and finally gave back the coin,
though his companion demurred.
"All right" he said, We've made a
pretty good haul, anyway" The two
backed to the door.
Good night. gentlemen" they said
with ceremonious bows. Good night" !"
And they disappeared into the dark
ness.

situation, and during the discussion
Pardee made speech favoring Mayor
Mott and the present administration.
Jones, formerly a clerk in the employ
of the Southern Pacific. arose at the
conclusion of Pardees talk and began
to ask questions which were exasperat-
ing, to say the least. Finally he asked:
Were you not the author of certain
editorials which have appeared in the
columns of the Oakland Enquirer"
"No. sir, l was not" said Pardee.
You're a - liar" said Jones'
Pardee made no verbal reply. In
stead he left his place, walked across
the hall and, at the appropriate mo-
ment, hauled off and brought his right
fist in contact with the proboscis of
Jones.
Jones did not ask any more questions.
When he picked himself up the fight
was over and the members of the
merchants exchange were trying to
explain to each other how it happened.
After Jones had been put out he
was gathered in by a policeman on the
charge of disturbing the peace Pardee,
hearing of this. Immediately. asked
that the man be released. and on his
request Jones was allowed his liberty
on his own recognizance.
The trouble created excitement for a
few minutes, but with the departure of
Jones perfect peace was restored. Just
what Jones was doing at the meeting
was not known. When arrested he
gave his address as 416 Thirty-eighth
