and he said the bank people were sat-
ished that the two named were the
ones who had committed the robbery.
He said The bank would give a reward
Of $500 for the arrest of the men. $1,000
for their conviction and $1,000 for the
recovery Of the money. Though the
officer seemed very dubious on this
point he Is confident that the two rob-
bers are still in hiding al some point
about the bay. If they are il is thought
the offer Of q reward Will serve 10
bring them into the clutches Of the law.
M. Palmanteer says that as much
as 100000 has been sent through Daly
10 Richmond and that he himself had
taken as large sums there. 1t was
intended 10 send $4,000 over on the
day Of the robbery. but there was a
balance in the Richmond Bank that
made this unnecessary. 80
Zimmerman is known to the police
Of this city as holduD. man and
rough burglar" He was arrested
here only six weeks ago by Detectives
Braig and Bell because he had a guam
thy OF cigars in his possession that
they thought he had not obtained
honestly. He lived for long time on
Mission street between Fourth and
Fifth. In 1897 he served six months
in the County Jail for stealing s240
from John Young. a baker on Nc
Allster street. In 1898 he was sent
to Folsom for five years for breaking
into Stempke's store at Oak and De-
vissdero streets. He was discharged
In 1902 and in 1903 was arrested by
Detectives Reynolds and Wren on a
charge Of robbing Mrs. Bridget
Hughes at II Cough street. He was
not convicted of this offense. but was
sentenced TO serve six months for hav-
ing burglars tools in his possession.
HENRY DENIES COMPLETELY.
Collins was formerly hackman in
this city and had stand at Ports
mouth Square. Together with John
H Snyder he was arrested by Police
men Burke and Price in October, 1886,
for q criminal assault committed on
woman and was sentenced to serve
twenty-five years in Folsom. He was
paroled In December, 1900. and was
discharged in 1902. Fourteen days
later Zimmerman also gained his
liberty.
1t was at Folsom that the two men
became companions. Zimmerman was
first baker and Collins his assistant.
They have been together most of the
time since their discharge and it is
but natural that they should have
planned the Siege hold-up together, if
they committed it, as the officers say
they did.
When Henry was seen at the Broad
way prison last night he seemed un-
willing TO talk. He admitted that he
had lived in Richmond and THAT many
officers from both sides of the bay had

he denied that he had known Collins or
Zimmerman. When told that it had
been suggested that he had confessed
IN order to secure leniency for himself.
he said: What can they do for me
I'm good for eight years and ten
months in prison with all the credits I
can get and I'll never live through the
