C. Baker, United Railways conductor, and the holdup of passengers on a lakeside car in 1904.
His pall, Lee B. Money, fired the shot which nearly cost the life of the conductor when Baker attempted to attack him.
Boone dropped out of sight after his parole, but Director William P. Burns of the Bureau of Identification knew he was employed as a brake-man by the Baltimore and Ohio. Boone now is alleged to have stolen about $200 worth of merchandise from a freight car. He will be arraigned before United States Commissioner J. Frank Supplee.
Since his parole and his promise to go straight Boone has married. His wife called to see him. She admitted she knew her husband's past. She will not desert him now, she said.
Boone was identifiede by policemen who knew him a score of years ago and when asked why he had changed his- name he said, "I changed my name and began things all over."
The holdup of the Lakeside car occurred October 20, 1904. The late Detective Capt. A. J. Pumphrey, Detective W. H. Atkinson and Peter, B. Brennan caused the arrest of Boone, who was trapped in a house in Cleveland. Mooney was arrested in Denver. ..ovember 29, 1904, both baidits were sentenced to the Penitentiary. Nothing has been heard of Mooney since the prison gates opened to him three years ago.
Boone's old home was on Green-mount avenue. He said he was living in the 600 block of Wast Pratt street.

Fewer lengthy delays and better protection for the lives of motorists are items urged by Major Edgar S. Linthicum of Fort Howard, in criticism to the Public Service Commission of the Pennsylvania Railroad crossing on the North Point road.
In proof of such need, Major Linthicum recites that on November 1 he was held by the safety gates from 2.40 to 3.07 P. M. Then, he continues, when the gates were raised the crossing lender attempted to force northbound traffic to wait until all of the waiting southbound cars had passed.
Further, Major Linthicum alleges, the engine in one of the autos failed* causing a blockade of nine cars on the tracks. Promptly the crossing tender closed the gates, he says, panic stricken when he saw a fast passenger train approaching. Before the train reached the scene, however, the tangle had been straightened out and all of the automobiles had proceeded through the reopened gates.
