Box Car From Butte Held Up In Billings

A Butte junk dealer pair Mike Gordon and Morris Pererson are charged with orchestrating a multimonth series of train robberies targeting mining firms. A box car containing brass fittings was halted in Billings after a wild ride, with warrants issued for failing to report purchases by second hand dealers. Authorities say several youths confessed to participating in the scheme, which moved stolen goods to buyers in town and country. The case involves police, county attorney actions, and an eventual inventory of car contents to prove the thefts.
