AMAZING ACT OF BANDITRY
NEW YORK CAFE OUTRAGE YOUTHS DRAW REVOLVERS HAUL OF CASH AND JEWELS By Teltcraph—Frees Assn.— Copyright. New York, June 9. At 3 o'clock this bright summer morning, at one of Manhattan’s wettest allnight cafes four snappily dressed and hatless youths entered, drew automatics, and robbed the patrons of 10,000 dollars in cash and a fine lot of jewels. The only shots fired were when one woman attempted to toss a roll of 1000 dollars behind the bar. “Another move and we will put the machine-gun on you,” shouted the leading bandit, as they methodically passed down the line of big spenders, which included judges, prizefighters, jockeys, lawyers, v bookmakers and millionaires.
