Big Robbery at Red Bank Hold
Up Eisner Employees Watch
for Bandits Here.

The local police were today on the
lookout for three men who, earlier in
the morning held up four employees of
the plant of the Sigmund Eisner Conn.,
pany at Red Bank, and after forcing
them to drive to O. lonely spot, took
$17,000-the plants payroll-and the
car, leaving the four employees by the
roadside. Chief Burke received word
of the hold-up about 10 o'clock and
stationed men at the ferry and bridge
to watch for any suspicious characters
who might be coming through the city
from Red Bank.
The four employees of the Eisner
Company had gone in one of the COM
pany's automobiles to the Second Ma
tional Bank of Red Bank shortly after
9 o'clock to get the company's payroll
which amounted to $4,000. None OF
the men were armed, it Is sadd.
They were not molested as they left
the bank and drove to the Eisner
plant. On reaching the factory door
three armed men jumped into the au-
tomobile and ordered the one operating
was forced to drive about one mile
outside of Red Bank where the en-
ployes were forced to alisht after be-
ing relieved of the money. The rob
bers then took the car and disappear
ed towards Matawan.
The men in charge OF the payroli
We're the paymaster and three other
employees who acted as guards. The
men Immediately made their way to
the first telephone and advised the
company of the robbery. The Red
Bank police were notified and then
all of the police in nearby towns and
cities were warned to be on the look
out for the hold-up men.
No shots were fired as no resistance
was offered. There are 1900 employees
at the Eisner plant and two trips are
usually made to the bank on Satur
day. This mornings robbery occurred
at the end of first trip. It is believed
that the hold-up men were those who
were well acquainted with this custom
and the movements Of tho paymaster
and guards.
The car in which the men made
their escape was Of the station car
type. the top having a natural wood
finish, while the words "Sigmund
Eisner Company" were painted on
the sides. The number Of the car
license was S5,023 N. J. 1t Is thought
that the men deserted this car as
soon as they found another means
of escape. No trace Of the car had
been found up until noon, hewsver.
