July 11 (TP)— An outlaw who tried to hold up the Harrison National Bank came near succeeding today because bank em ployes who didn’t know about the robbery sent a policeman away. The would-be robber stepped up to the cage of teller Thomas Sheridan. He shoved a $3,000 draft under the greating. With the draft he shoved a letter ordering Sheridan to turn over all the bank’s cash if he didn’t want the bank blown to bits with nitro-glycerine. The note said the intruder had a whole bottle of the deadly explosive in his pocket. Sheridan moved his foot enough to step on the burglar alarm. The alarm rang outside the building. Traf fic Patrolman Chatterall heard the bell and came runnnig. A teller who didn’t know about Sheridan’s predicament told the po liceman the alarm must have rung by mistake. The officer went back to his traffic post. The would-be rob ber, however, noticed the confusion and saw the policeman. He demand ed an explanation. Sheridan told the man that the burglar alarm had call ed police. The intruder was so dis concerted that Sheridan took a chance and summoned the back watchman, who was in the room. The watchman made the arrest and held the prisoner until Patrolman Chatterall could ba called back. The prisoner said he is Walter Hill of Brooklyn. Police found an empty .32 caliber pistol in his pocket. He had no nitro-glycerin.
