openly with an opponent of
Canada's annkal seal hunt
‘during a news conference
which erupted into a

shouting match.

Davies sald later “1 don’t
think anything Tom said was
actionable.” n

Premier Moores called the
news conference in the
course of a series of
meetings across North
America and now inte
Europe to counter opposition
to te hunt which begins
March 10.

In the last five days, there
have been two news confer-
ences—one by the Green-
peace Foundation and the:
other by Davies’ group—cn

opposition. .

In addition, a banner has
been unfurled across from

May bo $3 Million

Nets Multi-Million Haul

Police were today checking
fingerprints found inside a
camper van used in the heist

- of between $1 million and $3

million from Wells Fargo
Armoured Express Ltd. 71 a

- two-hour operation Friday

night.

But aside from believing
that the bandits are from
Quebec, police have few.
other leads.

"We've got some

fingerprints we're checking,’

-emecking,”’ said Const. Guy

Gravel of suburban Long-
weull, “and we know that the
auspects are bilingual
because they spoke French
or English with litde of no
accent.”

Another investigator
added, “The men all wore
ski masks so we have
adequate descriptions of
their height and weight, but
that’s about all.”

- Police are. not. sure how

; ‘many men were involved in

the robbery, Gravel sald the
exact amount stolen would

not be. known until later
today when three Wells
Fargo officials, from the
company’s head office in
Hartford, Conn., complete
an audit.

BURST INTO HOUSE

The incident began, he
said, at about 8.15 p.m.
Friday when about five men
armed with maching guns
and silencer equipped
revolvers burst into the
South-Shore Longueuil home
of Wells Fargo manager of
Maurice Martineau.

His wife Victoria, 37, and
her sons Charles,ni6, and
William, 17, were tied,

gagged and blindfolded by
aome of the men and taken
away in a van—the stolen

camper in which the finger- -

peints were later found,
Meanwhile, the other men
took Martineau in-a car to
the company’s nearby office,
where they were met nee a

third group of robbers, police

Acting on threats from the
bandits, police said, Mar-
ltineau persuaded a guard in
_ the building to give up his
* gun and allow the men in. —

“The gunmen didn’t have
to get Martineau to open the
vault since it was already

open when they got there,”
Gravel said. “Two em-
ployees inside the bullding
were actually working inside
the vault when the gunmen

showed up.”

LOAD 10 BAGS

The bandits then put the
money—in denominations of
$1, $10 and $20—into about 10
green duffel bags and loaded
them into a truck.

Before leaving Wells
Fargo, the thieves hand-
cuffed Martineau, the guard
and the ‘two employees
working in the vault, and
warned the manager not-to
call police until he had heard
from them.

Meanwhile, Martineau's
wife and sons had been left in
the van in a Town of Mount
Royal shopping centre, on
the. other side of Montreal.
They managed io struggle
free at about 10:30 p.m, EST
and called police from a
nearby house. Longueull
police then freed Martineau
and the three other Wells
Fargo employees.

An attempted burglary at
the same Wells Fargo office
three years ago was foiled |
when bandis tripped an
alarm. They fled, leaving
$10,000 worth of steel cutting
equipment behind then.

Friday's incident comes
almost on the second an-
niversary of what was
believed the biggest cash .
robbery in North American
history—the  com-
mandeering of a Brink's ar-

mored truck from a down-

’ town Royal Bank branch and -

theft of $2.8 million. Nobody
has been convicted in that
