the work of verifying, compiling and

SEEK EX-EMPLOYEE
IN CAPITOL THEATRE
HOLD-UP OF $4,000
Robbery Made in Sight Of
Many Whose Eyes Were
Glued on Screen.
TOOK DAYS RECEIPTS.
Manager, Auditor and Watch
man Tied and Locked in
Closet with Girl.

The boldness and thoroughness Of
the three man $4,000 hold-up of the
auditor. house manager and two
others of the staff of the Capitol The
atre, at 51st Street and Broadway, at
1880 o'clock last night resulted to-day
in more police activity than has been
devoted to a single robbery job N
years. Following so closely on the
Greenpoint Street hold-up ot two
bank messengers who were robbed of
S17,676, the Capitol Theatre affair
gave Police Headquarters a shock.
Detectives have closely questioned
every employee of the Capitol and
are looking for former employees.
John Matthews, the house manager,
said the list of former employees is
small as there are few changes in the
house staff and the number Of en-
ployees who know that money is kept
in the theatre only on Sunday nights
and where it is kept and how it is
handled is limited
Neither Mr.. Matthews, ]. l.. Fall
coner, the auditor; Pearl Courtright,
ticket seller, nor Thomas Maher,
a watchman, who were the direct
victims, ever saw any of the three
bandits before the hold-up. The
armed visitors were young men-oue
not over twenty-five years old-and
quite nervous. 1t was their obvious
nervousness that helped in the rob-
berry because the theatre people were
afraid to make a move which might
scare one Of the thieves to the point
Of pressing his finger on the trigge
of his revolver.
At the hour of the hold-up the west
sidewalk of Broadway at 51st Street
was packed from the curb to build
ing line with slowly moving pedes-
trians. Every seat in the great audi
torium was occupied and there was
a line of standeas N the rear OF the
first balcony. Some Of these people,
had they taken their attention from
the stage and looked through a win
dow, could have seen in the lighted
auditors office across a narrow court
on the third floor the hold-up men at
work.
Mr.. Falconer at 1890 o'clock had
brought from the box office at the
main entrance the receipts Of the af-
ternoon and evening performances
1t is the custom Of the management
to deposit the receipts each night in
the Pacific Bank at 49th Street
and Seventh Avenue. but the bank is
closed Sunday nights and the safe in
the auditors office has served as a
depository.

tary Hughes at the Washington Con-

The original proposals concerning

Although Premier Brands author-

that the French proposals regarding
undersea craft were discussed by Nj.

more to say on this subject.

1t was also declared that, SO far

In official quarters to day it was said
that France maintains she is entitled
