ONE-ARMED HIGHWAYMEN.

New Feature to Street Car
Holdup on Kansas Side.

Another holdup of a street car conductor occurred last night on an eastbound Quindaro boulevard car betweeen Tenth and Eleventh streets, Kansas City, Kas. Two men, one of whom had only one arm, boarded the car, which carried no passengers, and the one-armed one "stuck up" the conductor with a revolver, while the other cut his change pouch from his belt with a knife and went through his pockets. They secured $12 and jumped off the car. The conductor was J. P. Farrell. Motorman J. J. Bunting did not know that the conductor was being robbed.
