BANDITS BLOW ORCHARD BANK
Loot Secured Less Than* Thousand Dollars.- Cashier
»
Bound And Gagged.
h James O’Donnell’s Car Stolen By Bandits and Later Found At
Yankton. Suspects Under Arrest At Sioux City.
Seven bandits, using nitro-glycer
irig, blew the vault doors of the Citi
zons State bank of Orchard early Sun
day morning, rifling seven of the
safety boxes in the vault and escapee
with less than $1,000.
H. R. Browning, assistant cashiei
of the bank, surprised the robbers ai
work, was taken into the bank anc
compelled to watch the proceedings
after which he was left, bound anc
gagged, iTj, the wrecked vault, wher
the band departed. Working loose
trom his bonds Browning turned in i
fire alarm and aroused the entire vil
lage, but the citizens were unable tc
stop the fleeing robbers, who escapee
in a Hudson super-six touring cal
stolen late Saturday night from th|
garage of James F. O’Donnell of this
city.
It has been definitely established
that six of the bandits came to O’Neii.
or. the Burlington Friday nighf and
stayed here until atfer midnight Sat
urday night, when they took Mr,
O’Donnell’s car and drove to Orchard,
where another member of the gang
had been on outlook all dgy Saturday.
The O’Donnell car was found at
Yankton Tuesday afternoon, frozen
up, and it is learned that five men pur
chased tickets from Yankton to Sioux
City before the car was found.
Five men are under arrest at Sioux
City, throught to be the bank robbers,
and two detectieves, one from the
Burns agency and another represent
ing the insurance companies, Thurs
day morning took several O’Neill
citizens, and others who saw the men
here Saturday, and at Orchard, to
Sioux City to ascertain if the suspects
are the men wanted.
The Orchard bank robbery is the
first to occur in this vicinity for about
twelve years, the Smith bank of Page,
now defunct, being the last one to be
rifled from the outside.
The Citizens State bank of Orchard
is capitalized for $30,000. T. A. Dray
ton of Orchard is president, E. R. Gur
ney of Omaha, vice president; W. S.
Bowen of Orchard, cashier; and H. R.
Browning of Orchard, assistant
cashier.
r The movements of the men who
blew the bank have been definitely
traced from the time they left Sioux
City last Friday morning in a stolen
Cadilac. The experience of H. R.
Browning, the young assistant cash
ier, while in the hands of the bandits,
was as thrilline as that of a movie
but not grouped, and in pairs visited
most of the stores in town. They also
•spent a portion of the day down near
1 the /Burlington roundhouse, coming
und going in pairs, and conferring
with one who seemed to be the leader.
1 Their actions attracted the attention
■ of Chief of Police Beha and Deputy
Sheriff Bergstrom, Sheriff Duffy being
absent from the city, and also of the
men about the Burlington roundhouse
who thought they either were boot
deggers disposing of their war^, or
Burlington secret service men watch
ing for car thieves. The east and
west bound trains the Northwest
ern were watched Saturday afternoon
to see if the men had left town, but as
they did not merchants and others
were notified of their presence Satur
day evening, to prevent possible rob
beries.
The next heard of the suspects was
Sunday morning when Kfarshal Beha
receievd word from Orchard that the
Citizen’s Sta^ bank there had been
robbed, safety deposit boxes rifled and
the assistant cashier left bound in the
bank.
The account given by Mr. Brwning,
the assistant cashier, is that he had
been to a dance Saturday evening,
afterward had taken lunch at a res
tauiant and then started for home, go
ing past the bank on his way. When
he reached the bank he was stuck up
by two men on the outsi4e, who took
him into the main banking room and
then back into the director’s room,
where he was turned over to several
others. The outside men then again
took up their! outside vigil. Several
men, he says, were examining the
vault doors, in another room, but work
was not started on the vault until
after the dance had broken up. This,
says Mr. Browning, was after 3
o’clock. Browning Was asked, soon
after being taken into the bank “where
does the town Bull hang out.” Per
ceiving that the bandits were not
aware of his connection with the bank,
Mr. Browning told them that he also
was a stranger in town, which seemed
to modify their treatment of him
somewhat. While he was converting
with the bandits inside the bank’rhs.
outside men would signal, by clicking
their guns when any one come down
the street, and the others would reply
1 f 1, m A /4/\m 4- Vl /\ r»4vn o4f» V. O ^1 V\A
come deserted work was started on
the vault doors, Browning being taken
in by his captors to see the work done.
‘‘Just 'watch closely and you will
know how it is done," one of the men
working on the outside vault door ad
vised him, and he was permitted to be
a spectator of the entire proceeding.
Soap first was placed around the com
bination, he says, the dope poured in
and touched off with a short fuse. The
explosion threw back the tumblers and
enabled the cracksman to pull out the
combination. The inside door was ac
corded similar treatment. The time
now was about 4 o’clock, according to
Browning, and the bandits hastened in
their work. They looked over the safe
in which the currency was kept, but
discovering it to be of the screw type
and of ferro-manganese steel they
made no attempt to blow it. Attention
then was turned to the safety deposit
boxes, the locks of many of which had
become jammed by the exposions,
which also had wrecked much of the
vault furniture. Only seven of the
boxes were opened before it became
late enough that the bandits must de
part if they were to escape in the dark.
Browning then was bound and gagged
and placed on a sanitary couch in one
hero, but the experience of James r.
O’Donnell, who took precaution to pre
vent the possible theft of his-'car Sat
i urday night was not quite so thrilling.
The first definite clew tq the bank
robbers is that seven men arrived in
Plainview Friday morning from Sioux
City, driving a Cndilae car. The car
was not working well and the party
left it at a Plainview garage for mi
nor repairs, stating that they were go
ing on west on the Burlington and
would return for the car in a few days.
The same party of men purchased
tickets for O’Neill at the Plainview
depot and six of them came to O’Neill
on the evening passenger, arriving
here at midnight. One is known to
have stopped off at Orchard and re
mained there Saturday. Four of the
men who came to O’Neill took lodging
at the Beha hotel, conducting them
selves as strangers to each other.’Two
•went to the Ziemer hotel.
A suspicion of the four men stop
ping at the Beha first was aroused
when Mrs. Beha discovered them
whispering together. Saturady morn
ing the men were about the streets,

of the bank rooms and the couch car
ried into the wrecked vftult- Before
leaving him the bandits tied his feet to
the couch and then partially closed the
vault doors. They had been so de
formed by the explosions however that
they could not bo closed tight.
Browning rolled from the couch
after the bandits had gone and in his
struggles managed to reach part of
the wreckage caused by the explosion.
On the ragged edge of a piece of metal
he sawed the rope that bound his
wrists and thus was able to liberate
himself. The alarm at once was given
and the fire bell rung, arousing the en
tire village. As the citizens were as
sembling a large car, some say two
cars, crept through the crowd and then
sped east. One of them, the O’Donnell
car, it later was discovered had been
left idling, in front of the village con
stable’s house while the robbers work
ed. Word was flashed to nearby towns
and at Plainview the fire alarm was
rung and the town turned out to ap
prehend the bandits if they came that
way. At 5:40 o’clock, the big Hudson
car, with lights out, dashed through
the streets of Plainview at fifty miles
an hour, while the citizens stood
agape.
The next heard of the robbers was
when word came from Yankton, South
Dakota, that the O’Donnell car had
been found on the south side of the
Missouri river, that five men had
crossed the river and purchased rail
road tickets to Sioux City, leaving
Yankton at 2 o’clock Sunday after
noon.
Detectives of the Burns agency and
the insurance companies, who viewed
the work of the bandits Wednesday
pronounced it that of experts. All of
the men wore gloves, so that there
iwould be no finger prints to betray
them, and the work of blowing the
compination they declared was that of
a past master at the game. The only
words spoken by the bandits at any
time, inside the bank, was when
Browning was incited to watch the
proceedings and when the first safety
deposit box was opened, one of the
men then remarking that the box con
tained $200 worth of bonds,
When Cashier Browning gained his
'liberty he first telephoned President
Drayton that the bank had been rob

bed. Drayton, misunderstood him to
say that the bank was being robbed
and taking a rifle ran down toward
the bank building. Arriving there, in
the dark, he saw a light in the build
ing. Throwing his fur coat out in the
middle of the street, so that it would
appear to be a man lying in wait, he
crawled off to the side and levelled his
rifle at the bank door. Soon two men
came out the bank. Drayton waited
until they had approached a light,
when he pulled up to fire. Before he
could do so, however, one of the men
spoke and he diacn^erod thsJ -*"“>■
were Browning and the village mar
shal.
This was the second escape young
Browning had during the evening from
sudden death. When he first ap
proached the bank he was accosted by
one of the bandits, who thrust a gun
toward him. Browning thinking the
move merely one of a friend trying to
frighten him, brushed the gun aside,
startling the bandit. The second map
jammed a gun in Brodning’s back be
fore he could follow up his advantage,
and the cashier subsided as he realized
the two men meant business.
The stirring part played by J. F.
O’Donnell in'the affair, earlier, in this
city, was that when Mr. O’Donnell was
informed of the presence of the men
here, fie went home about midnight,,
got down the old trusty pump gun and
loaded It up with shot- Mrs. O’Don
nell, who had already retired, was
aroused by his warlike preparations
and inquired why the demonstration.
“I’ve decided to have order, in this
house,” Jim remarked, and then he ex
plained that the presence of several
prowlers had been reported in town
and he feared they might be car
thieves. “I just want to be prepared
if they come after my car,” he re
