BANK ROBBER DIES
IN MAKING ESCAPE
Watchman Fleeing With
$4,000 Loot Drops Dead
in Taxicab.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA. December 21.-
Death, hastened by fear of apprehen-
sion for bank robbery. has written
the final chapter in the lawless career
Of Edward T. Keller, central figure
in the famous McNichol trunk muir
der mystery of a decade ago.
The end came while he was fleeing
in a taXicab with more than $4,000
in cash and checks, stolen a few hours
earlier from the Corn Exchange Bank.
where he was employed as a night
watchman. Physicians said that heart
failure, superinduced by fear, was the
cause.
Spent Six Years i'm Cell.
Pardoned about a year ago after
having served the greater part of his
10 to II year sentence for Staying
Daniel McNichol in 1914. Keller is be-
lieved by police to have planned the
robbery for some time with an ac-
complice and then to have double
crossed his accomplice few minutes
before death overlook him. He had
come to the city in 1910 after having
served a SiN-year sentence IN sing
Sing for lootinG the funds of the New
York City Fire Department Assocla-
ton, of which he was a member.
Keller had been employed at the
Corn Exchange Bank about four
months He was missed when he
failed to ring in on the time clock at
one of the regular periods early yes
terday. An investigation started by
n protective agency ended shortly
afterward by the identification of
keller's body al Il police station.
He had hailed d taXicab after his
disappearance from the bank and or
dered the driver to take him to Broad
and Wallace streets. Here he tapped
several times on the window of IA
house, and, receiving no response, he
re-entered the cab and instructed the
chauffeur to drive to a Germantown
address. Frank Gencha said that kel-
Ter appeared very nervous and kept
drumming first against a suit case
that he held tightly between his knees
and then against the window that sep
arated him from the driver.
Finds Passenger Dead.
Shortly after the start of the second
part of the trip this drumming ceased
and Gencha turned in his seat to find
his passenger Slumped forward and
apparently unconscious He was dead
