SALUTARY SENTENCE.
SEVEN YEARS’ FOR BANK ROBBERS. PERTH, October 6. Two young immigrants, John Kildare and Arthur Soltmarch, were sentenced to seven years’ imprisonment with hard labour in connection with the Mount Lawley bank robbery.—(P.A.) (On 15th September, two armed men entered the Mount Lawley branch of the Westralian Bank, locked the manager and his assistant in the storeroom, took £335 in notes and silver from the safe, and calmly walked into the street. The imprisoned officials managed to release themselves and informed the police, who later arrested the robbers and recovered the whole of the missing money. The robbers were recent arrivals from England.)
