Lawless New York
ANOTHER SHOCKING CRIME. BANK MESSENGERS MURDERED AND ROBBED. THE POLICE IMPOTENT. New York, Nov. 14. One of the most daring and inhuman robberies in this city of unusual crime occurred to-day. Two bandits in an elevated railway station waited until two bank messen?;ers carrying 43,600 dollars alighted rom a train. The bandits opened fire without preliminary warning, .killing both instantaneously. They then seized the money and rushed down the steps and departed in a waiting automobile, racing through busy city streets at 70 mues an hour. The police frankly admit that they doubt their ability to apprehend ihe murderers.—(A. and N.Z.)
