A realization came to Tr1ts that this
thing was no joke At last he obeyed
orders. After his hands went up. the
leader OF the robbers told him to keep
them in that position until he walked
to a small door on their left, which
was locked and which kept them from
the money in the cashiers cage.
When Tritz reached this door he was
permitted to lower his hands long
enough to unlock it. Then. gaining adj
mittance the leader kept Tritz covered
with the two revolvers while the other
members OF the gang ran over to the
cashiers cage, taking the money. About
5000 of it was in silver.
Cashier Locked in Vault.
Everything having thus far gone to
the complete satisfaction Of the holdup
men, Tritz was ordered TO back toward
the vault. When he neared it the two
subordinate criminals jumped upon
him and pushed him into the vault,
turning the lock upon him. He was
rescued by Mr.. Hesse, who returned
to the bank about half an hour later.
The bank is located in the busiest
section Of Greenville. People were pas
sing in front of 1t constantly while the
melodrama inside was being staged.
View of most of the interior. however,
is cut off from the street by double
curtains which stretch across the large
windows. altho an excellent view is OBJ
tanned of the cashiers cage thru the
door.
No Clew by Police.
1t is not known in what manner the
holdup men made their escape. The
police were notified shortly after 5
o'clock. Chief of Police James B. Brit
ton, Chief Of Detectives J. B. Rich
ard and a squad OF detectives and pa
trolmen went to the bank in the police
automobile and worked long into the
night on the case.

during the year there have been a

one Of the main reasons behind the
