(By Telegraph. Copyright, Telegraphic Messages Ordinance, 1804. Received March 7, 942 am):

A DRAMATIC HOLD-UP BY A GANG OF SIX BANDITS OF A BANK AT SIOUX FALLS, SOUTH DAKOTA, YESTERDAY WAS MARKED BY A -SERIES OF ASTOUNDING EVENTS, INCLUDING A BATTLE WITH THE POLICE AND THE ABDUCTING OF A GIRL EMPLOYEE OF THE BANK.

John Dillinger, a notorious outlaw who escaped from gaol on Saturday, where he was held on a murder charge, is believed to have been at the head of the bandit gang.

After robbing the Bank, the outlaws strewed the road with nails to hinder pursuers, and later used the girl as a shield. Then they held up a motorist, and dashed off in his car.

A widespread search for Dillinger has so proved fruitless.
