TEE BOND ROBBERY AT MIR. SIMON VOLTS
OFFICE--1 eSteTday afternoon Justice simon
Wolf, whose Office is on 9TH street between
and q streets, reported that the safe used by
Judge Lysander Hill and himself had been
trust for the Hebrew orphan Asylum. IL aD-
pears that Mr. Wolf left the Office to attend 10
some outdoor business, and was not absent
Gated shortly after Mr.. Wolf left, il being sur
posed that Mr.. Wolf. who had been last ar the
SAFE. had closed. Onthe return OF Mr. Wolf the
Cffice door was found TO be locked. as the clerk
OF Mr. Hill left it, and the door OF the safe was
ICGnd open. with some papers scattered about
ne several drawers and apartments were all
found locked. Mr. Wolf made haSty eXanina-
ton, and reported TO the police as above, but
when the detectives Oyerhaued the safe a pack
age containing $500 was found, which Mr..
VOL overlooked. \ package containing 800 IN
registered + per cent. bonds only was missing
Tie opinion Of the officers is that Mr.. Wolf left
the safe open, surprising that the clerk would
close II, and the latter left thinking that Mr.
Wolf had made it secure, and that some ordi-
nary thief did the work who knew nothing OF
The Character or value OF the bonds he was
taking. AS the bonds are registered Mr. Wolf
loses nothing. The officers have good reasons
for believing that they will secure the thief
Ibis Is the fourth time Mr. Wolf has been
re bbed within four years.
