 5 STAGE COACHES
Lone Daring Robber, After Fleecing Tourists Of $40e
 Escapes into Wilds On
 Motorcycle
(5y Review Leased Wire. )

YOSEMITE VALLEY. Cal, July 5 Five stage loads of turists entering the Yosemite Valley were held up to- day at Wawona by highwayman who operated single handed and took his departure or motorcycle. He col leeted about S400
 The victims included several tour ists from the Eastern cities.
 Except that the bandit rode a mo- torcycle and the stage coaches were all motor driven vehicles. the holdup was not unlike the performances of early mining days or scenes staged for moving pictures. The bandit stopped the first car by means of a log rolled across the roadway. As the car stop ped he stepped out from the brush and with a sawed-off shotgun assumed charge Of the situation. He waited until the five coaches had reached his blockade. He then ordered everybody out. into the road. Cash only; no jewelry wanted" he told them.
 When he had finished taking up the collection he mounted his motorcycle and disappeared at full speed.
 Among his victims were a number of Southern Pacific Company officials from the East.
