AUTO BANDITS
co TO NEW YORK
Getting TOO Hot for Them In Chicago,
So They Seek Fresher
Pastures.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-A. black tax
icab, leaning on one fiat tire against
a curb at Lexington avenue and 116th
street, was the only clue found to-
day by the police to the band OF dar-
ing highwaymen who held up. four
employees of a downtown provision
house last night and got, away with
$500 in cash, neglecting. however, to
take $4,000 more that had just been
put in the safe, which was still open.
This band Of hold-up men is believ>
ed to be the same that robbed two
saloons in the past week and used a
taxicab on both occasions to make
their escape. 1t is also thought that
the bandits are part of the gang oper-
ating in Chicago. The present demon
allied condition of the New York po-
lice department through the graft in
vestigations, is believed to have
broughs the bandits from Chicago.
They are the first taxicab bandits
L to operate extensively here since the
gang that robbed the bank messen-
gers of $4,000 last winter were
rounded up and convicted.

fine time. When he retired he ap-
peared to be cheerful. When the
nurse entered his room the following
morning to give him hot drink she
found him dead.
A large circle of personal friends
deeply regret the untimefys death of
Mr.. Day. Quiet in his manners he
mad a genial personality and withal
a minded disposition and a
candidness of expression that in
spired confidence in all who met
him, and made him many friends who
felt lhey could trust him at all times.
He had the promise of a more than
"a usual useful life and his sudden
taking off is public loss.
Mr.. Lay was forty-two years old.
He began his business life in the
store of Andrew G.. Phillips. Then h
was clerk for about two years in the
store of George E. Voorhees,. In
1900 he formed partnership with

ONE KILLED I'M
AUTO SMASH-UP
Collision With Trolley Car Fa-
tai to James Williams.

James williams, of Ridgedale av-
enue. was killed and his father-in-
law, Ira " Mesler, superintendent
Of the Morristown e Erie railroad,
was seriously injured as the result
of a head-on collision between an
automobile in which the two men
were riding and mainline trolley
car at eight-twenty Monday night on
Speedwell bridge, Speedwell avenue.
Howard Everly, motorman of the troll
ley car, was cut about the head and
face by flying glass.
Everly says that the automobile
came down the opposite hill at
high rate of speed and> instead of
keeping to the right at the bottom
of the hill where there is turn,
swung wide across the street, at
tempting to cross in the path of the
trolley on the way to Wharton. Ihe
automobile drove into the trolley
with crash that smashed the light
runabout the men We're in to blts
and wrecked the front of the trolley
car. Williams is thought to have
thrown under the trolley cars plat
form, the fender being wrecked and
the wreckage driven underneath the
car. Williams is though to have
been instantly killed. His head was
crushed. Mesler was rushed in an
automobile to Memorial hospital
where it is said that he is suffering
principally from shock, though badly
bruised and possibly injured inter
nally.
Roundsman Hally, Patrolman Meeker
and Special Officer Osborne hurried
to the scene of the accident and
took charge. DR. Clifford Mills and
DR.. George l.. Johnson, police sur
geon, examined Williams and found
him dead. Coroner Welch issued
permit for the removal of the body
to Hughson's morgue.
Everly lays all the blame upon the
driver of the automobile who was
Mesler. The trolley motorman as
well as the conductor, Edward Banta,
assert the car was going slowly and
that the automobile ran into it. The
crew of the mainline car due in Nor
ristown at eight twenty-five and
which was waiting at the passing
point at Lake road, say they heard
the automobile go past their car at
such a high rate of speed they ran to
aOok at it.
y Williams was married few years
ago and leaves a wife and one small
child. Mesler was for many years a
conductor on the Morristown & Erie
and last week was appointed super
intendent of the railroad. He had
been driving a car for several months
past.
