PARLIAMENTARY, Jan. 10.-That the safe
robbers who have terrorized mer-
chants and put the detective force at
their wits ends by the number and
daring character OF their depredations
have not left the city, was demon
strated on Thursday, when Alexander
Adaire. n lumber dealer at Howard and
Berks streets, opened his establish
ment. Two big tireproofs were found
70 be literally hacked to pieces. The
thieves had used Il crow bar, a
big lumber axe, n hatchet and a
chiscl, and with these tools had
smashed and battered the safes into
shnpelrss masses 1t was the clearest
case of BLACKSMITH" work ever seen.
But the plumber scarcely paid for the
work, as they only secured sl.50 in
cash, and about 90 cents worth OF
postage stamps, The work Is
Identical, though more clumsy with
the twenty-five other robberies that
have occurred within the past three
months without the police being able
to do IA thing,
