Waterloo.
Battling with two men on top of a
fast passenger train from waverly
junction to Winslow was the thrilling
experience OF Special Agents Riley and
Malcolm of the Rock Island lines.
The two men. William Nicol and James
Wilson. both Of Cedar Falls, were final
~ overpowered. They made an effort
to escape after being removed from
the top Of the train, but were finally
shackled and brought to this city. The
officers allege the men were drinking
and ordered them not to board the
train at Waverly. They were discov-
cred on top Of the coaches as the train
was pulling out of Waverly Junction.
The two officers climbed to the top OF
the train and made an effort to place
the men under arrest. Both men put
UP battle, and Nicol absolutely re-
fused to submit to arrest and gave
Officer Riley foot race UP and down
the train. The detective finally seized
Nicol and for some time the two men
fought back and forth on top Of the
coach.
