Daring Attempt by Two Rssoals to Rob .
Private Bank.
MAssILLoN, O., Nov. 24-One Of the
most audacious and almost successful
daylight bank robberies ever attempted.
In this State was perpetrated here Sat
urday. The German Deposit is a pri-
vate banking institution in the Hotel
Conrad building, the large double plate
glass windows and doors adjoining the
main entrance to the hotel. At one
o'clock In the afternoon man entered
the bank and representing himself to be
the agent OF a stone company, requested
p. G. Albright the president who was
alone, to go out in front, as he thought
he could furnish him some new stone
steps
Albright complied, and during brief
conversation with the stranger he hap
pened to glance into the bank. His gaze
fell upon man at the safo doors and he
rushed in and encountered the man with
s3, 900 in his hand, done up in $500 pack
ages. Grasping the situation, Albright
also grasped the robber, and the latter
threw the bundle Of Doodle to his con-
federate, who was outside the counters.
The money packages struck the wire
screens on top Of the counters and fell
inside. Foiled in their attempt, not
having secured dollar, the confederate
quickly disappeared out the front door,
and the principal got away from Al
bright and escaped
