Meanwhile, the other two bandits rode up and down the main street in two automobiles. At one of the banka, an aged woman was cashing four checks, totalling about $70 when the bandits entered. When she told them they had taken her money, one of the men returned the checks to her and admonished her to until they had gone.

Aug. available clue which rqight lead in identification of the bomb-carrier who caused death and destruction in the Farmers Deposit Savings Bank Tuesday afternoon, has been run down and the identity remains a mystery. As a last resort, detectives hope the measurements, finger and foot-prints taken by betrillon experts and forwarded to the national bureau of identification at Washington may produce some new clue.

Thousands of curious persons have viewed the headless body in the morgue, but none was able to even partially identify the man. A scrap of paper, containing the telephone number for a while gave promise of furnishing means of identifying the stranger who sought $2,000 from the bank and tried to blow it up, but the number turned out to be that of Andreicci, who seemed to answer in part the description of the dead bomber. Andreicci, however, was located alive. He denied having given Chili's phono number to any acquaintances. MRS.
