Grabs Geld asd Escapes.

Last evening about 8 o'clock . man
broke in the window Of 7. R. McGurn,
dealer In groceries and stock and money
broker. No. 100 South O street. and
grabbing up all the gold he could hold
in both hands. made his escape. All Of
one pile Of gold containing $500 and
part Of another pile wal taken. In
breaking the window the man used q
skull.oap OF oiled canvas. such as is
sometimes worn by miners. This he
placed over both hands and then jammsd
them through the window. when no
clutchsd all the gold he could grasp.
leaving the cap that had covered his
hands lying inside Of the show window.
It was all done in an instant and the
fellow was Of.
In wheeling TO run the thief came near
falling and caught an Arm round an
awning post for q moment to recover
his balance. he did not have time TO
put the money into his pockets, but ran
across to the east side Of the street to
near the store Of Jules G. German,
dealer In poultry and produce, whore.
In o narrow allsy.wsy between two
buildings there IL . flight OF steps lead

reached the bottom he turned down q
slide, used in aiding down produce.

and smooth plank which prevented
those in pursuit from following until
the slide had again been turned up on

street, thence to the railroad tunnel.
thence to D street again and there all

captured at last accounts.
After the chase S25 was found In the
street near the awning post around

money was In $40, $40 and $5 pieces.
