A masked gang stormed the Chicago City Railway office at Sixty-tract and State Street early Sunday, killing two men and wounding a third while stealing about 2,000 in cash and 1,500 in silver. The robbers, believed to be several men, escaped through a window into a vacant lot, then southward through darkness. Frank Stewart and Henry Bish died at the scene, William B. Einnond was wounded, John B. Johnson was killed trying to flee, and Edmond tried to raise the alarm as the robbers departed with the loot. The entire heist lasted about three minutes.
