TIME-LOCKED
VAULT OPENS;
ROBBERY Barred
Cashier Is Held as New
Developments Are Probed
by U. S. Officials.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO. Jan. 5.-A close
friendship between Mary v. Curran,
25, telephone operator of the closed
Lawrence Avenue National bank
and John E. Malloy, married assist
ant cashier, was revealed today
while angry depositors surrounded
the institution demanding their
funds.
Ma1Ioy, accused of embezzling
$4,000, despite his insistence that
four bandits robbed the bank, was
Miss Curran's superior in the bank,
but became good friend" after
hours and took her on night club
tours, she told Detective Chief John
Norton.
1--WE met when I started working
at the bank two and one-half years
ago." she said. He had been there
six months then. Our night club
visits were not improper, even if he
is married and has two children
My brother went along with us"
Girl Appears Voluntarily
Miss Curran appeared voluntarily
and told her story as police and fed
eral agents investigated Malloly'S
statements.
The crowd surrounding the bank
was orderly, although some of the
men waved their arms and talked of
prosecution" as they peered
through the windows. The banks
doors were closed for an audit of
its losses.
AS Malloy had predicted, the
banks time lock opened late Sun
day, revealing that the vault had
been looted of $4,000 in cash, and
that safe deposit boxes had been
ripped open. Jewelry cases and
non-negotiable securities from boxes
were scattered on the floor.
Loans Are Investigated
The banks loss determined, fed
eral examinations called for lists
of valuables kept in the safe deposit
boxes, having no other way except
elimination to determine what else
was missing.
The police investigation of NAL
logs robbery story disclosed today
that the official lent $4,000 to a
saloon keeper in November after
the borrower was involved in a
murder mystery.
Added to that was the declaration
to the states attorneys Office that
a deposition saw Malloy hand $4,000
to a race track betting commission
er a month later.
President Almost Faints
The vault opening, police said,
substantiated the story Malloy
told Milwaukee police Thursday
night-that four men, posing as
bank examiners, had called him to
the bank New Years day, held him
up. looted the vaults, forced him
to lock the doors and then taken
him for a four-hour automobile
ride and set him free near the Wis
consin city.
Among the few allowed to peer
into the vault after the doors were
opened was George Pilot, president
of the bank. The sight of the de-
post boxes ripped open and their
paper contents scattered about the
floor caused him almost to faint. A
few minutes later he announced in
an unsteady voice merely that "the
vault has been entered and robbed"
One of the most mysterious an
giles was in the fact that the rob-
bers tore several sheets from ledgers
of the banks private record of re-
sources and liabilities. Police were
puzzled what the robbers wanted
with these.

Royal.
