A suspected hold up by Harvey Logan known as Kid Curry near Malta on the Great Northern was thwarted by detectives on the engine. Train crews along the Glasgow to Havre line carried armed guards for days after reports of Logan’s Montana return and possible robbery. Logan, linked to the 1901 Great Northern raid, escaped a Knoxville jail escape while awaiting transfer to Columbus. A standing reward of 110 is offered for his arrest and conviction. A Madrid report about officers conspiring to prevent the Queen Mother’s return is denied by the Interior Minister.
