DARING ROBBERY
In new ORLEANS
Lone Thief Secures 100000
From Bayou State Security
Bank.
POLICE WITHOUT CLUE
Bold Bandit Forces President to Cash
Personal Check at Point of Re-
voIver, Then Makes His
Disappearance.

New Orleans.-One of the most dar-
ing daylight bank robberies ever re-
corded in this city was committed
this morning when the Bayou State Sc
curity bank was looted of 100000 in
currency by lone robber. There is
absolutely no clue to the thief.
As has been the custom for some
time of the president of the bank. Mr..
Andrew Galbraith, entered his private
offices in the rear of the main banking
apartment at ten o'clock. Shortly af
ter young man OF prepossessing ap-
pearance quietly opened the door and
entered the room.
When the president looked up he
found himself gazing into the muzzle
OF a revolver and heard the cool de-
mand for 100000 under penalty of
death for refusal. Mr.. Galbraith imme-
diately realized that the robber would
carry out his threat should he make
any outcry or disturbance. He was
calmly told to write his personal
check for the amount named and in
dorse 1t. He was then ordered to
take It to the paying teller while the
mysterious visitor followed him close
ly with the revolver leveled at him
under his coat.
When President Galbraith presented
the check the young robber stepped to
the window and requested $1,000 in
small bills and the rest in paper of
large denomination. He stuffed the
loose bills carelessly into his pocket,
| put the package containing the S99. 900
under his arm, nodded to the president,
backed swiftly to the street door and
vanished.
For further particulars regarding
this daring robbery read the new Sc
rial. The Price" by Francis Lynde,
