Washington, Jan. 20.—Charges that
the International Merchant Marine Co.
and the American Shipping Co., now
controlling the operation of approxi-
mately forty vessels leased from the
Shipping Board, are bound by the
agreement entered into with the Brit-
ish government in 1903 to pursue “no
policy injurious to the interest of the
British Mercantile Marine or British
trade," were made here today by Sen;
ator Jones of Washington, author of
the merchant marine act. Parts of the
text in the alleged agreement entered
into prior to the twenty years were
read by Jones in an address before the
annual convention of the National
zens State Bank at Washington ave-
nue and Heights boulevard, was rob-
bed of $22,000, $12,000 of which was in
Liberty bonds and $10,000 in currency,
by two unmasked men, who held up
attaches of the bank and locked them
in the vault at 2 o'clock Wednesday
afternoon. About $12,000 was over-
looked by tiie robbers, bank officials
said.
After robbing the bank the two men
ran down Washington avenue for
about a mile, to tlie foot of Hemphill
street, where the car was ditched in
the bayou.
In the bank at the time the robbers
entered were A. C. Bell, president; R.
D. Crairg, cashier: L. B. Thompson,
assistant cashier, and Miss Ada Dick-
erson. bookkeeper. Two customers, H.
G. Hendricks and R. Kubala, entered
while (he holdup was in progress, and
they were met at the cashier's window
and promptly locked in the vault with
the others.
Craig and Thompson were in the
cages in the front part of the bank
and the robbers entered, covering
them with pistols, compelled them to
enter the vault and turn their faces to
tlie wall. One of the robbers grabbed
a large amount of money before leav-
ing (he vault; one then proceeded to
the office in the rear of the building
and commanded President Bell and
Miss Dickerson to throw up their
hands and “get into the vault quick.’’
The robber told Miss Dickerson not to
be afraid, that they would not hurt
her. The two customers who had ap-
peared at the window were placed in
the vault and the door closed.
By fneans of a burglar alarm inside
the vault, a drug store adjoining the
bank was signaled and the proprfetor,
F. B. Treadwell, responded, and from
within the vault the imprisoned
cials tried to give Mr. Treadwell the
combination, but could not make them*
selves understood! After about fifteen
minutes, Cashier Craig succeeded In
removing bolts from the lock, which
released it, and the door was opened.
According to the description given
by President Bell, both were young
men, one little more than a boy. sup-
posedly about 18 to 21 years old. He
was dressed in dark clothing of me-
dium quality and wore a cap.

The other man was about 25 to 30
years old. slightly taller, but aboikt the
same weight, or perhaps a little heav-

ion and wore a light mustache.
