THE star route exposures thus far

master General James Investigations are
not very fresh, after all. Almost every
case thus far published was given to the
public by the Democratic campaign com
mittees early in 1880 as the results of a
Congressional inquiry into the subject.
They were then denounced as campaign
SANDERS by the Republican press and

Democratic thunder if he shall succeed
thereby in hunting the rascals down and
bringing about much needed reform.

ANOTHER BURGLARY.
The Safe Blown Open in O'Leary's Packil
e House,. so


The Safe Blown Open in O'Leary's Packing
After long immunity from the depre-
dations of the midnight crook and bur-
glar, st. Paul is infested with a gang of
evidently experienced blacklegs.
Their presence was indicated by the
raid on Stahlman's cigar factory night
before last and occular evidence was APP
parent that they were working the racket
for money.
1t is matter of the utmost ease to
trace the tracks of the professional crook
Your inbred crook scarcely ever touches
anything but money orvaluables that are
easily convertible. He despises the petty
maurauders of the coat rack order and
goes for bigger game The burglary at
Stahlman's on Monday night, for which
the crooks received nothing for their
pains, was followed by more daring at
tempt early yesterday morning.
AS in the other case their efforts in this
instance resulted in no booty. Between
2 and 3 o'clock yesterday morning
O'Leary's packing house on Tenth, near
Franklin street, was entered by burglars
and the safe blown open. The cracks
men were evidently up to their business,
as indicated by the preparations.
They put ladder to side window and
let themselves drop into the store. They
then stacked about fifty hams in front Of
the safe door to deaden the shock of the
explosion, and then cracked the safe.
Fortunately it contained no money, and
the thieves were baked. They must
have made hasty exit, as they left a
cold chisel and powder flask behind.
They took with them new coat and vest
belonging to the bookkeeper.
