Hold Up Planned Fails As Associates Fail Him At Saloon
A masked highwayman entered the Anderson Fisher saloon at 408 East Granite in Butte with a shotgun and ordered gamblers into a rear room. Seventy five men watched as the holdup man, uncertain of accomplices, fled east up an alley after his partners failed to appear. Detectives investigated while reporters found games continuing, suggesting the robber sought the cash register but retreated.
