COMB BALTIMORE:
FOR BANDIT LAIR
Police Take One Suspect in
$46,697 Pay Roll HoId.Up.
Woman Likely Aid.


BALTIMORE. Nd, october 2.-Po-
lice are securing Baltimore today in
the belief that the bandits who held
up and robbed payroll messengers Of
the Henry Somehow Co. YESTERDAY OF
$46,6S7, leaving one of their number
dead in an abandoned automobile SIX
blocks from the scene, are hiding IN
a rooming house. They also believe
q woman aided them by taking the
loot and going probably to New YORK.
A number of letters found in the room
of Joseph E. Danko. the slain mem
Der, bore New York names ana al
dresses. The manner in which Danko
met his death is still a mystery.
With the arrest OF one suspect THIS
morning, police announce that they
are on a close trail. They refused
to make known the name OF the
prisoner Five took part in the rep
berry. This has been established, the
auto had been stranded at a garage
In the northern part of the city from
8 o'clock until o'clock Yesterday
morning.
Suspect Former Employe.
Definite clews leading to Identified
tton of the bandits were FOUND IN
letters in Danko's room The room
was occupied by Danko since July
The letters are said to identify by
name a. former employe OF the some
horn Co. who, the police believe. en-
gineered the robbery.
The employe has disappeared. but
the police are confident they will haVe
him in custody today. They refused
10 give out any information about
the suspect taken into CUSTODY this

He is being closely guarded. He
is SO in height, of swarthy com
plexon and wore a gray sun ana

mis- answered the description of one
of the bandits as given by several
eye witnesses. The hold up occurred
at Paca and Pratt streets as the
messengers were entering the COM
panv plant on their return from
bank with the pay roll.
Whether Dauko was Accidentally
shot in reloa ding his pistol during
the battle with police. or whether
he was killed in a quarrel is still
q matter of speculation.
Believes Death Accident.
Detective Capt. Burns, who is in
personal charge of investigation, be-
lieves the man was accidentally
Killed. he points out the pdiluite
had scarcely time to quarrel over
their loot. The interval which
elapsed between the hold up and the
finding of the bandits body in the
abandoned auto. at st. George street,
was but Is minutes. Furthermore,
Burns declares, the bandits would
hardly leave behind them such a
clew as the body of a confederate.
The police are confident that the
bandits have not left the city. They
may be within a few blocks of the
Sonneborn plant. Detective Captain
Burns said 1t would have been impos-
sible for them to have escaped or gone
far, as, in less than five minutes
after the robbery. dozens of police
and plain clothes men were on the
scene and no suspect wound have
been able to get by them.
The police have been in connmuni-
cation with New York authorities
about the persons mentioned in the
letters found in Danko's room. They
would not give out any information
about the letters, except to say that
q number of names and addresses
were mentioned.
