BATILE FOLLOWS HOLDUP OF BANK Lone Robber and One of His Pursuers Killed. THREE OTHERS WOUNDED Bandit Secures $750 at White Bear, Minn,, but Prompt Alarm ls Given and Cltizens Prevent His Escape. Seeks Refuge in Outhouse, Where He Holds the Posse at Bay Until a Bullet Ends Hie Life. St. Paul, Aug. 6.—Following a hold robbery of the First State bank at White Bear two men were killed and several others shot more or less seri- ously in a fight with the robber in the village of White Bear. The killed are: EDWARD LARKEN, chef at a Bald Eagle cottage, who -took part in the pursuit of the robber. ROBERT COHL, the bank robber. Bill Butler, a White Bear fisherman, was shot through the abdomen and may be dying and two other men re- celved less serious wounds. One re- ceived a bullet in the thigh and the other was shot through the wrist. The robber, who had been employed as a laborer on some building work at White Bear fof the past three days, received his payment—a check for $6 —and went to the bank to get it cashed. Cashier Alfred Auger was the only man in the bank. The man offered Auger the check and while the cashler was examining it he drew a six-shooter. When Auger looked up he gazed into the barrel of the weapon and was told to hand over all the cash in the bank. Amthe man had the drop on him Auger was com- pelled to obey and passed out all the currency in the office, amounting to $750. The robber fled down through the streets of the village in the direc- tion of Bald Eagle lake. Pursuit Begine Immediately. Auger gave the alarm at once and in a few minutes the entire population of the village, armed with revolvers and rifles, was in hot pursuit. Seeing his pursuers gaining on him the robber took refuge iIn a closet in a yard about two squares from the bank and when the self-constituted posse drew near opened fire. Larken, who was leading the pur-: suers, paid no attention to the shots or to the warnings of the robber and went boldly into the closet. He dropped dead on the threshold with a bullet through his heart. This tragedy caused e halt among the pursuers, who retired to whatever sheltered points offered themselves and opened fire on the closet with rifies and revolvers. The fire was briskly returned by the robber and in & few minutes But- ler fell, shot through the abdomen. Other shots fired by the robber wound- ed two other men. Fire on the closet was kept up, how- ever, despite the casualties to the at- tacking party and finally a well direct- ed bullet dropped the highwayman. ‘When the attackers got nside the little building they found him dead on the floor, his revolver clasped tightly in his hand.
