The victim was a Polander, nnd he bore signs of having been given a bad beating. He was Anthony Plutsavage, of Port Griffith, and, according to his tale, he went yesterday to spend Christmas in Exeter with friends. He came up [on one of the last West Side cars and 'started down Luzerne avenue for the, lower bridge. He had just about stepped on the bridge when two men sprang on him, knocking him down. They then kicked him in brutal fashion and searched his pockets. In one of them they found $15 which they took. When they left their victim they stayed on the West Side. Plutsavage hurried to Main street and looked up an officer. He told his story to Policeman Linnen about J 2:30, but the latter was unable to do anything for him as the highwaymen had not come toward this city.
