CONTRACTOR IS HELD UP.
S. J. Ellis Robbed of $60 and a
Valuable Stick Pin.
Three young men uniformly dressed in loose fitting, shoddy garments and wearing dark slouch felt hats stepped from an alley and leveled three large revolvers at S. J. Ellis, a contractor, as he was returning from a trip from the business district to his home at 3834 Agnes avenue last night. With his hands accommodatingly thrust into the air Mr. Ellis allowed one of the men to rob him of $60 in money and a valuable stick pin. He was then told to hasten home.
Mr. Ellis reported the holdup to No. 9 police station.
